The bright moonlight sprinkled down, with a chill that seemed to penetrate the bones.

Narun Desert, Sentry Oasis.

The fierce battle at dusk had come to an end with the total rout of the gnolls.

The smell of blood is still strong.

It's like a slaughterhouse.

After all, this is a battlefield of fierce fighting, there are corpses everywhere, blood everywhere, even the sand is stained red, leaving only dead corpses, and the hidden desire for life in the depths of the eyes that have been spread.

But on the battlefield, no one can spare their hands, let alone mercy.

Only the victors are qualified to lament the cruelty of war, and the losers can only be buried and turned into the dust of history.

Kant was very sensitive.

If he had been the loser of this campaign, it is estimated that none of the corpses on the ground would have been buried.

The gnolls do not dislike human corpses, and for these primitive races, human corpses with fine skin and tender flesh are, to some extent, their most delicious meat.

Gnoll people and humans are two completely different races.

"Only the king will be defeated."

Kant muttered silently in his heart that he did not pity this tragic battlefield.

It didn't matter how many gnolls died, on the contrary, he felt sorry for the Swadia soldiers who died in this battle, which amounted to the loss of his military strength.

The caravan leader, as a statistician, has already come up with the results of battle damage.

Of the 100 Swadia peasants, 58 were killed and 42 remained.

Of the original 30 Swadia recruits, 24 were killed and 6 remained.

Of the original 35 members of the Swadia militia, 16 were killed and 19 remained.

Heavy losses.

Judging by the results, Kant's forces were inflicted heavy losses.

It will be difficult to recover for a while.

Seeing this result, Kant frowned.

He took a deep breath, calmed the irritability in his heart, and said bitterly: "92 people were killed in battle, this price is really too great. ”

The cost is not just great.

More than half of the level 0 classes have been lost.

Tier 1 and Tier 2 classes are nearly completely lost.

This is a major blow to the future development of "Decherim".

Without the troops, Kant would not be able to organize a defense.

Without the peasants, Kant was unable to allow the village to develop.

"But it's fine."

Kant sighed lightly, with a little joy in his eyes.

Although the losses were heavy, he still had the system and was able to recover some of the losses.

【Ding... After your bloody battles, the enemy was completely routed. 】

[Temporary Mission: Complete "Persistence in Adversity"]

[Rewards: Dinar × 1000, Fame × 500, Honor × 1]

[Introduction: In this brutal battlefield, your bravery inspires your troops and holds on to their beliefs, thus defeating a large and brutal enemy army.] 】

The system dialog box gives the Kantian reward.

But before the dialog disappears, a new dialog box reappears.

【Ding... Because of this battle, you won more with less, and achieved remarkable results. 】

[Rating: Epic Victory.] 】

[Gain Fame× 100 points. 】

[Honors× 1 point. 】

It's about the system, the evaluation of this campaign.

The results are amazing.

"Epic victory?"

Kant clenched his fists, his heart beating fast.

It was a bonus.

Especially those 2 honors, although there are heavy losses on the battlefield, but with these 2 honors in the lottery in the mall, if you are lucky, you can recover them all, and you can even have a surplus.

After all, for Kant, the [power of deterring the enemy], which can be called an artifact, is obtained by lottery.

At this moment, the system dialog box appears again.

Class-specific dialogs.

【Ding... Someone in your unit can level up]

The battle is over.

After a fierce battle, the soldiers can continue to level up and be promoted to a stronger class.

"Open the class screen."

With some solemnity in his heart, Kant took a deep breath.

It's about the strength of his troops.

The system dialog box is directly expanded, densely listed.

………………

[Upgradeable Class: Swadia Peasants×42]

[Costs 10 dinars per person, can be upgraded to: Swadia Recruits]

【Ding... At present, the experience is overflowing, and all employees can be continuously upgraded]

………………

[Upgradeable Class: Swadia Recruits×6 Troops]

[Costs 20 dinars per person, can be upgraded to: Swadia militia]

【Ding... At present, the experience is overflowing, and all employees can be continuously upgraded]

………………

[Upgradeable Class: Swadia Militia ×19]

[Costs 30 dinars per person, can be upgraded to: Svadia Light Infantry/Svadia Guerrilla]

【Ding... At present, the experience is overflowing, and all employees can be continuously upgraded]

………………

[Upgradeable Class: Desert Bandits×17 People]

[Costs 25 dinars per person, can be upgraded to: Desert Bandit Elite]

【Ding... At present, the experience is overflowing, and all employees can be continuously upgraded]

………………

As Kant expected.

After this "epic victory", all the surviving troops can be upgraded.

Even the experience has overflowed.

According to the system, the upgrade can continue with the second stage of the upgrade.

It can also be seen how amazing Kant's gains in this battle were, and how difficult it was to achieve this decisive victory under the attack of 2,000 gnolls!

If they are not careful, it is estimated that they will be completely wiped out here.

Swallowed and foamed.

Kant swept the class interface: "However, the upgraded dinar seems a bit amazing." ”

According to the current class upgrade, it costs a total of 1367 dinars.

This is not counting the cost of the next two upgrades.

Because Kant didn't know how much the overflowing experience could make the rest of the classes upgrade after the class was upgraded.

Actually, don't worry.

Even the current 1367 dinars is a huge number for Kant.

Sell dates for 500 dinars.

Recruit 1 Desert Bandit for 30 dinars.

Complete the temporary quest "Perseverance in the Face of Adversity" and receive 1000 dinars.

The current Kant balance is 1470 dinars.

If all the troops are upgraded, then Kant will return to the previous time when the oil ran out of lights, and he can't even pay the maintenance expenses of the soldiers for the next week, and he is in an extremely embarrassing situation.

Naturally, he wouldn't do that.

"It's a headache."

He pinched his eyebrows vigorously, obviously he had just won the victory, but Kant felt a little physically and mentally exhausted.

It's as if your body has been hollowed out.

Just as he was thinking, there was the sound of hurried footsteps behind him.

Luo Wen, the cavalry captain who had fought with the knights before, also walked over covered in blood, bowed his head with a complicated face: "Lord Baron, Knight Hobson and Scholar Hank, I hope you can go over and talk." ”

"yes, okay." Kant nodded.

Kant was now reinstated as a baron, and Rowan's tone was respectful, without the slightest impatience.

Because Hobson and Hank are the identity of Kant, for Rowan, a small cavalry captain, his identity cannot be wrong in front of Kant at all.

Kant hurried to the Consulate, where the knights were resting.

In the previous charge and fighting, these heroic subordinate knights inflicted huge casualties on the gnolls, and at the cost of many injuries, even several deaths.

"Knight Hobson, how's the casualty?" Kant walked over and asked in a solemn tone.

"6 seriously wounded and 7 killed." Knight Hobson replied.

Kant frowned even more, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Knight Hobson, this matter has dragged you down. ”

It's a real drag.

If it weren't for Kant, there would have been no need for these knights to come to the sentry oasis and fight so many gnolls.

"This is the fate of the knight, a glorious death."

Knight Hobson shook his head and exhaled deeply, "Death in battle is always worth remembering rather than dying in battle." ”

After a slight pause, he turned his head to look at Kant, and said in a cryptic tone: "In fact, we came here to solve troubles for you, this is another task of ours, and there is no direct explicit task." ”

"I don't understand." Kant frowned.

"After all, you are the blood of the Duke of Lion."

Hank Scholar walked out of the Consulate Hall and said with his cane, "I don't believe that with my status, I can have 50 Servant Knights exclusive to the Lion Castle to protect me, in fact, this is just an ordinary investigation. ”

"I'm sorry." The Hobson Knight apologized to the Hank scholars.

"No, I can guess this kind of thing." Scholar Hank shook his head and smiled, and said a little heavily, "You nobles, it's always like this, that's why I don't like to deal with you. ”

At the end of the topic, both of them understood very well.

Kant's brows furrowed, and in his mind, he also remembered his cheap father Cameron.

"It's you." He muttered to himself.

If so, maybe everything makes sense.

"Baron Kant." Scholar Hank spoke, interrupting Kant's musings.

"What's wrong, Mr. Hank." Kant returned to his senses.

Scholar Hank said, "The gnolls have been defeated, and if nothing else, they won't continue to attack for a long time, so I'm going to leave here." ”

"Leave?" Kant was slightly stunned.

"yes, I'm leaving."

Scholar Hank looked at the sand dunes in the distance with some emotion, shook his head and said: "The Lost City is just a legend after all, I originally thought that Duke Cameron was moved by my discovery and finally supported my investigation, but now that I think about it, it is really too arbitrary to conclude the legendary Lost City based on just one sentence." ”

"This—" Kant opened his mouth and said nothing.

Scholar Hank shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm going to go back, this expedition can be regarded as a fulfillment of my dream." Sighing slightly: "The Lost City is a legend after all." ”

This famous legend of the Principality of Lion has actually been searched by countless people in history.

If there are any clues, it is estimated that they have been discovered by now.
