The undead are Kant's most direct threat at present.
At least they have already occupied the stone pass, showing 10 royal knights, they have already deterred those nobles with evil intentions. If they want to launch some force threats, at least these big knights must be eliminated!
If we say that the knights who have undergone rigorous training are the foundation and backbone of the army.
Then the great knight is the high-end combat power in this world, and the benchmark to measure the true combat power of this army!
Troops without knights sitting and leading them are completely garbage cannon fodder troops composed of farmers and thieves. They have no effect on the real battlefield. Occupy left and right.
Even that kind of troops would never appear in real battles. As long as any nobleman had some value, he would personally train knights and attendants to form an elite squad.
Conscripting farmers and armed militias will only be used in the poorest rocky pass in the barren North County Territory.
There are no such units in the territories of other nobles.
At most, in order to ensure that certain areas, such as farms and villages, are not attacked when fighting against roving thieves and robber gangs, these farmers are armed to defend against the enemy by themselves, delaying the attack speed of the robbers, and waiting until the knight troops led by nobles , Arrive with real combat troops such as pikemen, archers, and cavalry.
Soldiers wearing double-layer iron-inlaid leather armor, after years of training, are naturally at the level of professional soldiers.
Even without these trained soldiers.
The nobles will also hire those mercenaries as followers, at least the mercenaries can still do something with the money, which is better than these rubbish farmers who collapsed and fled after two or three people died in a tragic battle.
Without confirming Kant's true strength, no one would call up troops with great fanfare.
not to mention.
Even Cameron, the Duke of the Lion, who is in his prime in the Lion Castle, has not made any statement on this matter. How could they, the titular vassals, make such obvious claims
No matter how dirty the nobles are behind their backs, they still have to save face at the very least.
For example respect.
After all, Kant is of royal blood.
Cameron's second son.
Although they can send people to assassinate secretly, it will be nothing in the end, but it doesn't mean that they will be able to gather troops in the territory, directly attack the rocky pass, and brazenly launch an offensive between the territories.
Just when everyone was procrastinating or secretly probing, Kant was undoubtedly given a buffer time.
These nobles certainly didn't know about the changes in the depths of the Nalun Desert.
What's more unexpected is that Kant, who wished to die immediately in their hearts, is now blocking the army of undead for them, and he is trying his best to prevent the spread of the death sky.
This is what makes Kant a little depressed.
But blocking is not the case.
The sentry oasis is located on the route of the expansion of the death screen, and it just happens to be blocked on the way to the Lion Principality.
In order to protect his territory, Kant of course had to fight back brazenly, and tried his best to block the mysterious and terrifying death sky deep in the Nalun Desert!
Just like the current sun disc.
Go to the second floor of the station.
In the room, the huge sun disc was being wrapped in a linen cover and tightly covered to prevent it from being discovered by the guys outside who were actually caravans and spies.
This is a strange thing, an artifact-like item, and it is naturally impossible for Kant to let outsiders know about it.
"My lord."
The mages reported: "The sun disc can fuse with strange objects of the same type at any time to strengthen itself."
Kant nodded: "Very good."
The mage continued to report: "According to our research, perhaps when a certain number of strange objects of the same type are fused, there will be a qualitative change and new abilities and powers will be added. Of course, this is unpredictable. Only by merging the discs first can we continue to conduct in-depth research."
"Well, no matter what, it would be very good if it can solve the death screen of the undead."
Kant looked calm.
This time he brought back 7 sun discs.
When you return to the sentry oasis, there is still 1 sun disc waiting to be absorbed.
The fusion of 10 strange objects of the same type may produce the qualitative change that mages call. Even if the qualitative change cannot be achieved, Kant can afford to wait. At worst, continue to search for this kind of solar disc in the Nalun Desert and the Sangwaya Mountains .
After all, he now understands that the Nalun Desert is indeed buried with the remains of the ancient times, the age of the gods!
The secrets of the lost city are about to be unlocked by him!
"My lord, do you want to merge now?"
the mages asked.
Kant frowned slightly: "No."
He declined the offer.
When I came to the window of the room, I could just see the temporary camp made up of hundreds of tents set up by the caravan not far away. Many people were looking around here, as if they were looking for information.
Seeing Kant looking at them, they all retracted their heads, each of them being as honest as a quail.
"snort."
Kant snorted softly: "There are too many people with mixed eyes, let's talk about it when we go back."
"Yes!" The mages nodded.
Going back naturally means returning to the sentry oasis, which is their real 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 trading point due to the salt trade.
If there is no trade, this station will return to its former tranquility.
"correct."
Kant withdrew his gaze, turned his head and asked, "What about the two corpses?"
"Uh..." The mages looked at each other, and said with some embarrassment: "It's unbelievable, these two corpses are very suitable for the magic system of the Ernfas Empire, just like silver cups and ale, when we perform magic During the experiment, I opened the portal from the Enfarth Empire and entered the Great Magic Tower in the capital of the empire."
"Huh?" Kant frowned slightly, and asked with some surprise: "The great magic tower of the Enfas Empire?"
"Yes, we overestimated our magic level."
The mages were even more embarrassed: "We wanted to reverse the summoning, and wanted to stimulate the almost pure elements remaining in these two corpses, but there were some mistakes, so we had no choice but to pass through the gate of the void and let them be in the big magic tower. To help the archmage, summon the past, and avoid being lost in the void."
"I see." Kant nodded, his face was calm, without any anger.
"Please forgive our mistake."
The mages were even more embarrassed.
This was not their first mistake. In fact, the sandstorm caused by the seven mages upgraded from mage apprentices in the sentry oasis was one of the reasons for the current crisis.
Or the main reason!
But Kant still didn't get angry. To be honest, he was a little used to it.
"Be careful next time."
Glancing at these mages with embarrassing faces, Kant said calmly: "Then, what will happen to the two corpses that entered the Great Magic Tower of the Enfass Empire? I don't think it will cause too many accidents."
The mages quickly said: "No, it will be studied by our mentor, the existence of the archmage."
"That's good." Kant nodded.
The Archmage is the third-level unit after the upgrade of the mage.
It belongs to the existence of extremely profound knowledge of magic, and the existence of humans who have mastered the power of magic to the extreme. They can be called humanoid beasts. As long as they are given a certain time to cast spells, even Titans and dragons will dodge.
After all, I have studied magic all my life, but it is still a war spell, and its lethality is extremely astonishing!
"let's go."
Kant did not hesitate.
Looking at the slightly west-slanting sunlight outside the window, it is now afternoon.
He ordered the mages: "Everyone get on your horse and follow me." After a pause, he turned his head and told the lion knight guarding the door: "You two stay here, and when the camel caravan arrives, let those camels circle the sun. Ship it back."
"Yes!" The two lion knights at the door responded immediately.
The sun disc transformed by the magic of the Enfas Empire is already very huge.
Although it can float.
But it's actually pretty heavy.
If you want to move, you must have 10 mages cast spells to move in levitation, which is quite strenuous.
If it is conventionally using manpower, it needs to be dragged by war horses or camels. With the force of levitation, it will slowly move towards the sentry oasis like a magnetic levitation train pulled, and the speed is still very slow.
So Kant doesn't plan to stay here and wait for this sun disc.
"Master Kant, there is a camel caravan coming tonight."
Rolf came up at this moment.
After setting up the patrol task, he walked up to the second floor, just in time to hear Kant's arrangement, and suggested: "It's better to wait for the camel caravan to arrive in the evening, unload the salt and rest for a night, and wait for the departure at dawn tomorrow, and you also rest."
After thinking about it for a while, Kant nodded and said, "Okay, that's it."
"My lord, we will communicate with our mentor through the spiritual network at night, together with the Great Magic Tower of the Enfass Empire. If we discover any secrets, we will report it immediately."
The mages also opened their mouths to make up for their mistakes.
"Yeah." Kant nodded.
This is the end of the matter, in fact, it can only be so.
For these mages, he didn't have much anger, and he didn't mean to become angry from embarrassment.
Those were just two corpses. To him, the value was not as much as that of the gold-cast coffin. Even if nothing was researched, it didn't matter. Of course, it would be better if it could be researched.
He still has a positive attitude towards the Archmage.
Those old mages who have been immersed in the law for nearly seventy or eighty years are definitely experienced.
At least in terms of reliability, it is much better than apprentices and mages.
It is also the backbone of the Ernfasi Empire. In the recruitment of Kant's arms, it cannot even be directly upgraded. It can only be unlocked through the World of War Wind.
At least mages can't upgrade 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, their power on the battlefield will really be like adding a 155 howitzer to an infantry battalion!
