Lord of the Oasis

The construction captain looked sincere.

And Kant was slightly stunned.

He didn't understand why Fatis' father didn't go through the construction workers from Suno, but went around in a big circle and asked these construction workers from Veluga, the Rhodok Kingdom, to hand over home letters?

This is undoubtedly superfluous and superfluous.

But on retina, the system's dialog pops up suddenly.

[Ding... Temporary task release]

[Temporary task: Fatis's family letter]

[Task reward: double recruitment (constant)]

[Introduction: Family love is an indelible feeling. When the wandering child is still looking for redemption, the old father who has grayed his temples longs for the child who has made a mistake to return to his side. 】

Temporary tasks appear.

Kant first scanned the introduction and couldn't help sighing softly: "That's right."

As the introduction says.

This is the grizzled old father's concern for the child who has made mistakes.

He understands the plot, and he also understands the story of Fatis.

The eldest son, who was originally radiant and was given the most love and trust by his old father, accidentally killed his own younger brother because of a dissolute courtesan. When he came back to his senses, he was in great pain and chose to self-exile and seek redemption.

But as the old man of their brother's father, wouldn't he feel even more grief in his heart?

For Fatis, he lost his younger brother.

For his father, he lost two sons.

With the passage of time, the estrangement has faded away. As a nobleman, the old man has entered his old age. He is always concerned about his son who made a mistake. He hopes to return to his side, inherit the family, and start anew.

"I will forward this letter to Fatis."

Kant opened his mouth, and at the same time reached out and picked up the flimsy letter from home and placed it on his chest.

"Thank you very much for your help, my lord." The construction leader hurriedly bowed and saluted.

After all, asking Kant, a nobleman, to help transfer the letter would be rude to him as a commoner. If he encounters a stubborn old man with a bad temper, it is absolutely possible for the soldiers next to him to drag him down and whip him a few times.

"It's okay." Kant waved his hand.

Turning to look out the window, it was already dark.

The light of the stars and the moon shone down like a gauze curtain on the world.

"Let's rest."

Kant stood up and walked towards the second floor.

Manid and the five Sarand riders, who all slept on the second floor, followed.

After all, it is a post station, and it can also be used as a hotel occasionally. There are three rooms on the second floor. There are three big shops when you clean up. Not to mention them, even the 10 desert robbers can sleep there.

But for safety's sake, 10 desert robbers are best on the first floor.

The soldiers had no objection to the arrangement, and even the construction workers dared not to object.

They brought blankets in Veluga, which can be laid on the ground, not to mention that there is a fireplace in the living room, and the burning wood emits enough heat, which is much better than sleeping in a sandpit.

Come to the second floor, Kant has his own room.

After saying good night to Manid and the five Salander riders, he closed the door and lay on the wooden bed.

No undressing.

Kant reached out and touched the family letter in his arms.

His face was a little gloomy.

Although he simply agreed when there were a lot of people, but now he is a little hesitant, because Kant doesn't know if he, the current general, would choose to leave if he handed this letter to Fatis.

There's never anything like this in the game, because it's a program-controlled virtual world.

But now is the real world.

Fatis has his own thoughts, his own beliefs, and his regrets for his deceased brother and his old father.

Maybe he will really leave the sentry oasis and return to Suno in the system.

Now, let's be honest.

Kant didn't want to give the letter to Fatis, even if the temporary mission failed.

"Double recruitment."

Scanning the quest rewards above, Kant squinted slightly.

Even if the recruited troops can be doubled, what can they do?

This is a knight from a military noble who is familiar with the Swadia Kingdom's troop configuration and combat policy, and is equivalent to a general who will lead the Swadia troops in the future. How could he let him go at will?

Taking a deep breath, Kant's eyes had a haze in his eyes: "Trouble."

Compared to the virtual world where data is king, reality is really troublesome.

Manid and the soldiers, as well as the construction workers, saw Kant take the letter.

Even if Kant can order and ask them not to speak out, but Fatis's father can entrust this construction team and other construction teams, and he can't hide it for long.

"Forget it, it's just a letter."

Kant closed his eyes and simply did not think about these troubles.

He understands the character of Fatis, which is definitely the standard of a righteous knight.

At the most difficult time in the start-up stage of Sentinel Oasis, he, the general who had high expectations, chose to leave, which may leave an indelible impact on his heart.

Opening his eyes, Kant closed them again.

He knew that Fatis was a good man.

Good people persevere.

Fortunately, he is not.

Night solidified.

The light from the inn shone through the windows and onto the sand outside.

Time passed little by little.

The sky in the distance lit up with a fishy white.

at dawn.

In the kitchen in the station, the aroma of the food has appeared.

Desert robbers bake bread and air-dried meat over the charcoal fire in the fireplace.

Just outside the inn, the construction workers from Veluga had finished unloading the materials on the carriage and were busy with tools, carefully digging a well beside the inn.

Kant also woke up.

Go down the stairs, where Manid is arranging chores.

After a few conversations, the Sarand rider and the desert robbers came over to have breakfast together.

They still have a lot to do.

"Lord Lord, are you leaving?" The construction team leader was also a little surprised.

Kant nodded: "Yes, you are doing a good job here. We have left some of the food and water. I think you also have your own bread and water, so the dried meat is left."

"Thank you so much, generous lord."

The construction leader immediately bowed to thank him.

Kant chuckled: "Dig the well, and when we come back from afar, I hope we can drink the clear water from the well."

"Absolutely." The construction team leader nodded gratefully.

Without further ado, Kant continued to lead the team forward.

This post is just one of the tasks. Even after Kant arrived at the Stone Pass, he would inspect the surrounding Sanwaya Mountains to find an open space where a logging farm could be arranged, so that he could send camels and farmers to cut down the wood and transport it back.

In the process of boiling refined white salt, charcoal is absolutely indispensable.

The sun rises and time passes.

Early morning, morning, noon, afternoon, dusk.

Just as the sun slanted westward, emitting layers of dim light, dyeing the desert golden yellow, the Sanwaya Mountains, which were originally like a majestic dragon, were already close at hand.

Kant's line is right.

And when he stared at the distance, the continuous Sanwaya Mountains, a gap suddenly appeared there.

It is said that the canyon appeared from the wrath of the gods.

But now, it is the only way to communicate with the Nalen Desert and the North County of the Principality of Lions.

Stone Pass is located in it.

Built from the south side of the canyon, close to the Principality of Lions, the whole body is made of stone and wood from the Sangwaya Mountains. It is not a strong and defensive castle. It can deal with no siege weapons, even armor and iron Gnolls with very few weapons are more than enough.

"We have arrived."

Leading Manid and the cavalry forward, Kant breathed a sigh of relief.

A wide canyon lies ahead.

The fractures of the mountains on both sides are quite smooth, as if they were directly cut and removed, forming two cliffs.

The yellow sand has spread into the canyon with the wind.

There are broken stones and sand everywhere, as well as a lot of dead trees that fell from the cliffs on the top of the mountain, and not many people have cleaned them up.

The canyon space, which is close to a kilometer, is quite empty.

The horse went a long distance.

Just a thousand meters in front of them, the stone walls built by the cliffs on both sides of the solid stone pass appeared in front of them.
