The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 230: The grim situation of the ruins

Views:

"My lord."

The leading apprentice mage spoke solemnly, with some surprise in his eyes.

He walked forward, came to the window, looked in the direction of the evil cave outside, observed for a while before turning his head, Shen Shenghui reported: "This area is very strange, I feel, it seems to have some kind of... weird .”

Even the other six mage apprentices nodded in the same way: "We also feel this way."

"Well, tell me what you found."

Kant frowned.

These mage apprentices definitely discovered something unusual.

Just like when the Ravenston ranger approached the cave, he also discovered the evil in it, and even asserted that he felt the breath of the underworld, and then Kant encountered the evil demonized creature.

There are even actual demons.

A female succubus with goat horns, sheep's hooves, bat tail, and bat wings!

Although the Pendor Continent where the Ravenston people live is a fantasy world, it is in the end of the Dharma.

This world seems to be the same as Kant's.

Therefore, although these Ravenston people do not control all kinds of magic or extraordinary power, they can still draw some instinctive conclusions based on historical rumors and their natural aversion to evil.

The perception of mage apprentices is even stronger.

They come from the war wind world with advanced technology and powerful magic.

In other words, these mage apprentices themselves possess the mysterious power of magic, and they already have an understanding of the rules of the world, and their basic theoretical knowledge is better. What kind of trouble is hidden under this village now!

With Kant's affirmation, these mage apprentices discussed a few words with each other.

But they quickly came to a unified conclusion.

Obviously what they perceive is the same.

This made them settle in their hearts, and the leader apprentice mage came to answer and organize the language.

After a short pause, he solemnly reported to Kant: "It started when we approached the Sangwaya Mountains. At that time, we had already perceived that the elemental energy in this mountain range was somewhat unstable."

"I have no concept of magic."

Kant frowned, and reminded the mage apprentice: "Speak simply."

"Oh, sorry, my lord, it is like this."

The leading mage apprentice looked a little embarrassed, and immediately changed his academic report, explaining in common language: "It is the positive energy that can represent justice, and the negative energy that represents evil, resulting in confrontation and conflict." After a pause, he continued: "Especially when we enter the mountains and come to the village where we are, we can more clearly perceive that these two diametrically opposed elemental energies are almost fighting against each other."

"Positive energy and negative energy." Kant nodded, he could understand this.

Seeing that Kant did not raise any objections, the master apprentice continued to report: "For example, in the Sanvaya Mountains, there is positive energy gathering at the top, but there is also negative energy gathering underground."

"This is very strange." Kant frowned, as if he had thought of something.

"That's right." The mage apprentice nodded: "This is exactly what surprised us, and it is very unreasonable."

Kant turned to look out the window.

The lush forests and mountains are still as usual without any abnormalities.

But in his heart, he was thoughtful.

Slightly pondering, Kant turned his head and asked the mage apprentices: "Does positive energy represent factors such as the sun, heat, and flames, while negative energy represents... evils such as demons?"

"That's right." The mage apprentice nodded.

After thinking for a while, he explained again: "Solar energy represents positive energy, but flames and the like are made up of the fire element alone. As for negative energy, demons can indeed represent it, and the same is true for the resurrected undead. "

The Warwind World of Enfass Empire is a complete magical fantasy world.

Humans have never been the masters of that continent.

There are also elves, dwarves, and even kingdoms established by demons and undead.

Therefore, mage apprentices from the Ernfas Empire know a lot about other races. After all, mages are also scholars. The understanding of spells is the most important thing.

Therefore, these mage apprentices can only really come to a conclusion after perception.

Positive energy and negative energy are in conflict and confrontation.

With the Sanwaya Mountains as the boundary, the positive energy from the sky and the negative energy from the ground, the two sides are in a fierce confrontation, just like water and fire, and there must be a winner.

"Could it be that the environment here is also formed because of this?"

Kant pondered for a moment.

Quickly splicing and combining all the details that came to mind.

The hot Nalun Desert, the slightly icy Sanwaya Mountains, and the bloodline of the sun god, the relics and sun discs left over from the age of the gods.

In addition, the female succubus said that it originated from the war of the age of the gods!

"That's right."

Kant narrowed his eyes, and had already reached the conclusion he wanted.

Instead of hesitating, he stood up, waved his hands and gave his order in a deep voice to the mage apprentices and the soldiers waiting outside: "Everyone, enter the evil cave and meet the demonized creatures in the ancient passage!"

"Yes!" The orderly responded immediately, and walked out of the executive hall to convey Kant's order.

The troops are already ready.

240 infantry, 87 archers, 40 crossbowmen, and 188 heavy cavalry.

Except for the 200 Rhodok proficient spearmen belonging to the 3rd-level mid-level troops, the other arms are all 4th-level and 5th-level elites, and they are powerful combat units of the middle and high levels!

Kant left the governing hall and stood at the door.

After sweeping across these elite troops, he nodded slightly and waved his hand to order: "All cavalrymen dismount."

"clear!"

The Swadian heavy cavalry immediately obeyed the order.

All the riders got off their horses, carrying only their own weapons and equipment, and lined up individually, forming a neat square formation. Each of them held a long spear and a fan-shaped shield, and wore heavy chain armor. Rhodoks with machetes.

The infantry and crossbowmen of the Kingdom of Swadia are in the same line as the Kingdom of Rhodoks, or in other words, the training methods and combat methods of both sides are almost the same.

Because the two sides were once one.

Arrangement is complete.

Kant turned his head and told James, "Look at the village, I'll go down to support Bundak."

Bandak is leading a small number of elite troops to garrison below.

Now the troops counted by Kant are all the troops in the "Aaron" village. In fact, they are divided into two parts: the mountain top and the cave. After all, the upgrade does not distinguish between regions. Troops can also be upgraded.

"Master Kant, there will be no mistakes here." James solemnly assured.

"Very good." Kant nodded in satisfaction.

Without too much nonsense, he walked directly in front and led the team to the interior of the ruins.

Sergeant Rhodok stood behind Kant as a bodyguard.

Then came the crossbowmen and archers, and the infantry and cavalry.

Although there were only 555 people, they came out with the momentum of a thousand people. They were all elite troops, all wearing well-made iron armor, holding excellent weapons, and possessed strong combat capabilities.

Even Rhodok's skilled spearmen wear nailed leather chain mail.

While walking, there was a slight "squeak" sound from everyone's body, which was the sound of the chain mail colliding.

They run rampant in the corridors of the evil caverns.

Soon came behind the stone gate.

The originally turbulent underground river has receded, but many water spots can still be seen vaguely.

Look up slightly.

The sun disc still emits a dim light on the stone platform.

Kant narrowed his eyes, and the coffin on the stone platform was still there, and at the same time, he could see two corpses lying side by side, vaguely and indistinctly.

But he did know that he killed the two mysterious people.

Step down.

The whole slate is a little slippery from being soaked in underground river water.

But just ahead, there is a depression of more than 20 meters below the stone platform, and the sound of rushing water is still coming, which is quite deafening, just like an estuary.

"Master Kant!" Bandak came not far away.

Seeing Kant and the elite troops walking out quickly behind him, there was an excited expression on his face: "You came so timely, we urgently need support now!"

"It seems that the situation is very serious." Kant nodded, looking at the broken hole in the stone wall on the west side, which is close to 5 meters high and more than 20 meters wide, just enough to accommodate the rushing water of the entire underground river. The so-called ancient passage should also be there. More than 20 Rhodok sergeants armed with heavy machetes stood guard there.

"Very serious." Bandak smiled wryly: "The attack time of those demonized creatures began to become shorter and shorter, and the intensity of the attack became more and more crazy."

It has not been two days since Bandak came here.

However, the demonized creatures encountered launched an attack, but they were crazy to the point of more than a dozen times.

There was a crazier attack just half an hour ago, and all the staff worked hard to defeat those demonized creatures. Now those corpses are still thrown in the ancient passage without restraint.

That's why Kant saw the soldiers sitting in the wall resting.

"Ow—"

The shrill howling of wolves suddenly appeared.

Bundak suddenly turned his head, looked at the ancient passageway in the collapse of the stone wall on the west side, turned his head and smiled wryly at Kant: "My lord, those damned demonized creatures have come again!"

"It's easy now."

Kant's tone was calm, and he turned his head and said, "Array to prepare for battle."

"Yes!" The soldiers returned in a deep voice, and rushed over quickly under the leadership of their respective captains.

They lined up in regular battle formations.

Sharp spears moved forward to form a phalanx of spears, and thick and heavy long-handled swords lined up on both sides, covering the frontmost phalanx of crossbowmen. They were quickly ready for battle.

Kant stepped forward.

Under the cover of this group of elite troops, he was full of confidence.
