Chapter 336. Mistakes at the Central Station
The undead are Kant's most immediate threat at present.
At least they have occupied the solid stone pass, showing 10 royal knights, they have already deterred those nobles with evil intentions, if you want to launch some threat of force, at least you must deal with these big knights!
If it is said that the knights who have undergone rigorous training are the foundation and backbone of the troops.
Then the big knight is the high-end combat power of this world, and it is the benchmark to measure the true combat effectiveness of this army!
Without a knight in charge and under the leadership of the troops, it is completely a garbage cannon fodder army composed of farmers and thieves, which has no role in the real battlefield, and can only play a small role in filling the numbers, increasing the momentum, and being a substitute for the dead in the front, and cannot occupy it left and right at all.
Even that kind of army will not appear in a real battle, and any nobleman who has a little value will personally train knights and their attendants to form an elite squad.
Recruiting peasants and armed militia will be used only by the barren northern county and the poorest stone passes.
Other nobles don't have this class at all.
At most, in order to ensure that a certain area, such as farms and villages, is not attacked against the bandits, the peasants are armed to defend themselves against the enemy, and the robbers' attack is delayed, until the knightly troops led by the nobles, with pikemen, archers, and cavalry, arrive in real combat units.
Soldiers wearing double layers of iron-clad armor, after years of training, are naturally at the level of professional soldiers.
Even if there are no soldiers who have been trained by them.
The nobles will also hire those mercenaries as their entourage, at least the mercenaries can do something with the money, which is better than these garbage farmers, who collapse and flee after two or three people die in a tragic battle.
In the absence of a determination of Kant's true strength, no one would rally troops with great fanfare.
Not to mention.
Even Archduke Cameron, who was in the prime of life in the lion castle, had not yet made any statement on this matter, how could these nominal vassals be so obviously arrogant?
No matter how dirty the nobles are behind their backs, at least they still have to have face.
For example, respect.
No matter how Kant says it, it is also royal blood.
The second son of Grand Duke Cameron, the Lion.
Although they can send people to assassinate in the dark, it will not be done in the end, but it does not mean that they can gather the troops in the territory on the surface, directly attack the Jianshi Pass, and brazenly launch an offensive between the territories.
Just when everyone was procrastinating, or secretly tempting, it undoubtedly gave Kant time to buffer.
Of course, these nobles were unaware of the movements in the depths of the Narun Desert.
What's more unexpected, Kant, who longed to die immediately in their hearts, is now blocking the army of the undead for them, and they are trying their best to hinder the spread of those death canopies.
This is what Kant was somewhat depressed about.
But it's not like that.
The Sentry Oasis is located on the path of the Death Canopy's expansion, just in the way to the Lion Principality.
In order to protect his territory, of course, Kant had to fight back brazenly, and use all means to block the mysterious and terrifying death curtain in the depths of the Narun Desert!
It's like the solar disc today.
Come to the second floor of the inn.
Inside the room, the giant solar disc was wrapped in a linen cover, tightly covered to prevent it from being discovered by the caravans, who were actually spies outside.
This is a strange thing, an artifact-like object, and Kant naturally cannot let outsiders know about it.
"Your Lord."
The mages reported: "The solar disk can be fused with the same type of strange objects at any time to strengthen itself. ”
Kant nodded: "Very good." ”
The mage continued to report: "According to our research, perhaps when the same type of strange objects are fused to a certain number, there will be qualitative changes, adding new abilities and powers, of course, this is unpredictable, we can only let this solar disk fuse first, and we can continue to study further." ”
"Well, no matter what, it would be great to be able to solve the death canopy of the undead."
Kant's face was calm.
This time he brought back 7 solar discs.
When you return to the Sentry Oasis, there is still 1 solar disk waiting to be absorbed.
With the fusion of 10 strange objects of the same type, there may be a qualitative change as the mages say, even if the qualitative change is not, Kant can afford to wait, and it is a big deal to continue to search for this kind of solar disk in the Narun Desert and the Sanwaya Mountains.
After all, now he has understood that the Narun Desert is indeed buried with the relics of the ancient period, the era of the gods!
The secrets of the Lost City are about to be solved by him!
"My lord, do you want to merge now?"
The mages asked.
Kant's brow furrowed slightly: "No." ”
He rejected the offer.
When I came to the window of the room, I could just see not far away, the temporary camp of hundreds of tents set up by the caravan, and many people were looking at this side, as if to inquire for information.
Seeing Kant looking at them, they all retracted their heads, all honest as quails.
"Hmph."
Kant snorted lightly: "There are many people, let's talk about it when we go back." ”
"Yes!" The mages nodded.
Going back, naturally, means going back to the Sentry Oasis, which is their true home.
The central post station where it is now is just a post station, even if it gathers a lot of cavalry and caravans, it is equivalent to a small village, but in fact, it is just a temporary trade point because of the salt trade.
Without trade, the inn would return to its former tranquility.
"That's right."
Kant retracted his gaze, turned his head and asked, "What about the two corpses?" ”
"Uhh ”
"Huh?" Kant frowned slightly, and asked with some surprise: "The Great Magic Tower of the Einface Empire?" ”
"Yes, we overestimated our magic."
The mages were even more embarrassed: "We want to summon it in reverse, and we want to stimulate the remnants of these two corpses, almost pure elements, but we have some mistakes, and we have no choice but to go through the Void Gate and ask the archmage in the Great Magic Tower to help summon the past and avoid being lost in the void." ”
"I see." Kant nodded, his face calm, without the slightest emotion of anger.
"Please forgive us for our mistakes."
The mages were even more embarrassed.
This is not the first time they have made a mistake, in fact, it is the 7 mages who have been upgraded from mage apprentices, and the sandstorm caused by the sentry oasis at the beginning is one of the causes of the current crisis.
Or rather, the main reason!
But Kant was still not angry, and to tell the truth, he was a little used to it.
"Watch for next time."
Glancing at these mages with embarrassed faces, Kant said calmly: "So, what will happen to the two corpses that entered the Great Magic Tower of the Einface Empire, I don't think it will cause too many changes." ”
The mages hurriedly said, "No, it will be studied by our mentor, the existence of the archmage." ”
"That's good." Kant nodded.
Archmage is the 3rd level of the mage after being upgraded.
It is an existence with extremely profound knowledge of magic, and human beings have mastered the power of magic to the extreme, and can be called a humanoid beast, as long as they are given a certain amount of time to cast spells, even titans and dragons have to dodge.
After all, I have studied magic all my life, and it is still a war spell, and the lethality is extremely amazing!
"Let's go."
Kant was not verbose.
Looking out the window at the slightly westerly sunshine, it's afternoon.
He commanded the mages, "All men get on their horses and follow me." After a pause, he turned to the lion knight guarding the gate and ordered, "You two stay and let the camels carry this solar disc back when the caravan arrives." ”
"Yes!" The two lion knights at the door immediately responded.
This solar disk, which has been transformed by the magic of the Einface Empire, is already very huge.
Though I can levitate.
But in reality it is unusually heavy.
If you want to move, you have to cast 10 mages to levitate and move, which is quite strenuous.
If it is a conventional use of manpower, it needs to be dragged by a war horse or camel, and with the force of levitation, like a maglev train pulled, it slowly goes towards the sentry oasis, and the speed is still very slow.
So Kant didn't intend to stay here and wait for this solar disk.
"Lord Kant, there will be a caravan coming tonight."
Rolf walked up at this point.
After arranging the patrol mission, he walked up to the second floor, and just heard Kant's arrangement, so he suggested: "It is better to wait for the arrival of the camel caravan in the evening, unload the salt and rest for the night, and when the dawn sets off tomorrow, you will also rest and rest." ”
Kant thought about it for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, so be it." ”
"My lord, we communicate with our mentor through the spiritual network at night, along with the Great Magic Tower of the Einface Empire, and if we find any secrets, we will report them immediately."
The mages also spoke up to make amends for their mistakes.
"Hmm." Kant nodded.
That's it, and that's really the way it is.
He didn't have much anger at these mages, and he didn't mean to be angry.
It was only two corpses, and to him, the value was not as much as that of the coffin made of gold, and even if nothing was studied, it didn't matter, of course it would be better if it could be studied.
He still has a positive attitude towards the archmage.
Those old mages who have been immersed in the Fa for a lifetime, close to seventy or eighty years, can definitely be regarded as experienced.
At least it's much better than apprentices and mages.
It is also the backbone of the Einface Empire, and in Kant's troop recruitment, it can't even be upgraded directly, and it can only be unlocked through the War Wind World.
At least the mages can't level up even if they have enough experience points.
Maybe it's because of the rules.
But Kant still has some expectations for the archmage, if these top mages really enter his command system, then the power on the battlefield is really like an infantry battalion adding a 155 howitzer heavy cannon!
