Lord of the Oasis

This news cannot be spread.

A secret that only Kant himself knows, if he is not strong enough, he will rot in his stomach.

Although he knows that if this news is released, it will cause a huge wave in the Principality of Lions and even other human kingdoms, which is enough to easily clear the ridicule that Teacher Hank is currently suffering from.

Kant still made this decision.

He won't tell anyone.

Not to mention the evidence that he knew to find the Lost City.

It will not let this golden disc with the sacred pattern of the sun reappear in the eyes of the world.

Embrace the guilt.

This is the simplest, most obvious, and most direct reason.

Even if Kant would gain popularity because of his discovery of the golden disc and the evidence that the Lost City once really existed in this desert, he would even be able to go to the academy and become honorable and respectable, and he would be in high society without the slightest bit of ignorance. A professor and senior scholar who is inferior to aristocratic status.

But he still wouldn't say it.

This all assumes that Kant can survive.

Because he understands.

Some nobles in the Principality of Lions did not like him, or even hated him.

Especially on top of Kant's head, the eldest brother who is not a few years older than him, the eldest son of Duke Cameron, will be the first in line to inherit the duchy in the future, but he doesn't want to be happy in the lion duchy. live in the country.

leave the entitlement.

Banished to the barren and dangerous Naron Desert is the bottom line they can accept.

So Kant understands.

Now he has discovered the Lost City again, and has found evidence of the existence of the legendary City of Gold. Maybe he can find the real Lost City, a city built of gold, only the blood of the gods can live.

Undoubtedly, it touched the interests of everyone in the Principality of Lions.

Those greedy, cunning, and bottomless nobles will use the fastest time to organize the troops in the territory.

Occupy the Sentinel Oasis in the most direct way.

And Kant, who currently has only 41 Swadian heavy cavalry and 46 Swadian light infantry as the main force, the desert baron of Naron, the controller of the sentry oasis, will die in unknown.

After hypocritical and hilarious mourning, this place is back under the control of those nobles.

The lost city, the immeasurable gold, is a wealth that no one can resist.

It can turn the calmest person into the most insane lunatic.

Greed is the most terrifying.

[Yes/No to give the item to the system to absorb? 】

On retina, the dialog flashes again.

Kant reacted and nodded without hesitation: "Yes, absorb."

In the eyes, the data flow appeared.

The entire golden disc was directly wrapped in the data stream. With a slight shaking, within a few minutes, this golden disc was absorbed by the system just like the previous gems and two pages of papyrus, and completely disappeared from this world. superior.

Only in this way can Kant be at ease.

The system solved his confidant's serious trouble, which made Kant slightly relieved.

"Lord Kant, you look bad."

Fatis walked in the distance, saw Kant's slightly pale and dignified face, and asked thoughtfully, "Do you need some water? I heard that a well was found here."

"I'm fine." Kant's expression returned to calm.

Seeing Kant, Fatis didn't say much, and didn't ask any more questions. He just looked at the well that had been blackened by the fire, and said in surprise: "This is that well? It can supply 2,000 gnolls with daily drinking water, look. The water storage is definitely not low.”

"Lord Fatis, this well is seven or eight meters deep, but the water in the well is less than two meters."

The light infantry who went down the well before drying their wet clothes,

At the same time, the report said: "When I went down, I found that there were water eyes bubbling up. It is estimated that there must be an underground river underneath."

Fatis was stunned: "Underground river?"

"That's right." The light infantry nodded affirmatively.

Kant looked at the south thoughtfully and speculated: "It is estimated that there is an underground river with abundant water at the bottom of this Nalen Desert, and the Sentinel Oasis should also originate from this underground river."

"It should be like this." Fatis nodded in agreement.

Oasis and wells do not appear bizarrely in the desert, and the reason for their appearance means that there are underground rivers flowing in the stratum.

After all, the bottom of the sand layer is the soil layer, and the water storage capacity can be quite rich.

"correct."

Fatis suddenly thought of something and said to Kant: "Lord Lord, remember you said that there is a natural salt mine formed after the lake dried up not far from the gnoll?"

"That's right." Kant nodded.

Thinking of the situation he had reconnaissance, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "There are also a lot of gnolls there."

Fatis looked solemn: "I think, we are busy again."

"This is necessary." Kant chuckled, his face still calm, but his eyes were a bit hot: "Those white flowers are still looking forward to us there."

Since this situation is mentioned, choose to resolve it as soon as possible.

Kant's character is decisive, one does not like procrastination.

The gnoll tribe has been reduced to ashes, and even if you continue to search, you will not be able to find too many valuables.

Even the coarse salt collected by the gnolls was completely turned into coke, which was not edible at all.

For Kant, even the salt mines are about to be acquired. What if these coarse salts are lost? To finally obtain the source of salt production is to obtain an almost inexhaustible financial path!

Charcoal from the Sanwaya Mountains.

Natural salt mines in the Narun desert.

And the two water sources that Kant mastered.

It represented the first-class white salt that only appeared in noble banquets.

The price per bag is almost equal to the same weight of silver.

Even low-quality coarse salt can take out large silver coins in the pockets of nobles and gentlemen. This profit is no less than robbery!

"Keep going!"

Kant rode on his horse and waved forward.

Behind him, 41 heavily armed Swadian light infantrymen lined up neatly, growing like a snake.

The 46 Swadian heavy cavalry were at the back and pressed their speed. They were inconvenient to move even with their horses and their armored body. Although the horses were not completely immersed in the sand, the speed at which they could advance was still unable to match the plains. compared to.

Both Kant and Phatis understood this fact.

Five Sarandian riders in chain armor and iron helmets acted as scouts.

Riding the Sarandian desert horses that are more suitable for the desert environment, without horse armor on their bodies, they still seem quite agile to run in the desert. After all, the Sarandians are a desert nation.

Along the way, they also spotted sporadic gnolls.

Seeing Kant's troops was like encountering a demon's troops, and they fled in fright.

Obviously these gnolls were the ones that had been defeated before.

Kant and Phatis didn't care about them either.

Although his troops are now less than 100 in number, their actual combat power has not only doubled, but has increased several times compared to the 300 he had before!

Just looking at the equipment of these troops, the iron armor under the linen robes can understand that they are all elites in a hundred battles.

In the Principality of Lions, it could be counted as a small elite army led by nobles.

The march continues.

Pull the horse to move the carriage, neither fast nor slow.

However, since they found the water well, the people of Kant didn't feel much pity for the water stored in the water bag. After all, there was a ready-made road from the gnoll tribe to the natural salt mine, and it only took a day to go back and forth.

At the time of Kant's investigation, it took less than half a day to ride the horse.

The gnoll has already stepped out of the road, and the hard sand layer is the best help for the wheels and horseshoes.

Take a break at noon.

After eating lunch, drinking enough water, and resting, Kant and the others continued to set off at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Time passed.

The sun gradually slanted westward.

Dusk comes.

They are also about to reach the natural salt mine.

A very conspicuous sign, the mummified gnoll at the top of the dune, is dragging a long shadow in the evening sun, which is particularly terrifying.

But this time, Kant didn't just bring those few desert robbers, but a well-organized heavy cavalry and infantry, and the combat effectiveness was quite strong!

Rush straight up the dunes.

The Swadian light infantry, who felt in the way, kicked out and knocked down the mummified gnoll tied to the wooden post.

Right under the sand dunes in front of you.

These gnolls, who already knew the demise of the gnoll tribe, were packing up and seemed to be preparing to evacuate.

Kant narrowed his eyes slightly.

He found quite a few interesting guys.

Because in his eyes, he found more than 30 gnolls, wearing chain armor and holding two-handed tomahawks, just like the Overseer urging other thinner gnolls, carrying bags of salt on their backs to leave .
