The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 62: Assage's grievances

Views:

Aserzi was a little annoyed today.

Who knew that the re-opened desert trade road that he had worked so hard to face would be destroyed, and his face would not look good.

Especially this natural salt mine.

It is Assage's most profitable resource at present. Thinking about the huge amount of money he spent for this trade route, for this salt mine, and to solve the living problems of those low-level gnolls, I feel even more angry.

There are also some grievances.

From the coast of Mannheim, across the Nalun Desert to get here.

Even for the strongest Gnoll miner, it will take 30 days to go all the way.

Although the nobles of those high-ranking wolf men would be happy to buy these good things that can be seasoned as long as the white coarse salt is transported back to the Gray Mane Kingdom on the coast of Mannheim, but the most important thing is that he has not paid back the cost.

It took only one year to re-open this trade route and discover this natural salt mine.

Among them, in order to solve the low-level gnolls with poor IQ in this desert, impress the only gnoll shaman who can communicate with gifts, and hire these low-level gnolls as miners, it took him 3 months.

And it cost a lot of money.

When Assage thought about it, he sold off all the possessions in the Gray Mane Kingdom for this trade route, and his heart palpited even more.

3,000 silver coins circulated in the Gray Mane Kingdom to buy a military map from 10 years ago.

Invest at least 500 silver coins every month to maintain this trade route and its own caravan.

Now, are you going to give up in vain

Assage's mouth full of sharp teeth was clenched tightly, and his eyes turned from oily green to red with resentment in anger.

"These damned, low-level, low-level gnolls who should eat sand in the desert!"

A howl of anger rose from Asage's throat.

It stomped heavily, kicked hard and flew not far away. A jackal who was binding linen bales roared angrily, "If you hadn't provoked those humans, I wouldn't be cornered now!"

The jackal was kicked away, howling like a dog.

There was fear and ferocity in his eyes, but when he glanced at his companion who was tied to a wooden stick and died in the sun on the sand dune, the ferocity in his eyes was also covered by fear, and he lowered his head and only trembled.

This Assage, the Gnoll who looked like them, had no mercy for them.

"Master Asage, calm down."

Behind him, several Jackals wearing chain mail and holding two-handed battle axes approached.

Using Gnoll language similar to the lingua franca of human beings, he dissuaded Assage: "There is no other way now, we'd better go back quickly. After all, the army of Graymane Kingdom has arrived, and this salt mine is still yours."

"That's right, Lord Assage, buying a map from the king and successfully opening up this route to the human kingdom is enough to win a great reward."

These high-ranking wolf man guards in chain mail expressed tactful comfort to Assage.

After all, this is his employer.

And they looked at each other, and they both understood what Fu Fu's eyes were trying to say.

A relatively strong high-ranking jackal guard said: "Lord Assage, we'd better go back now and bring back the news that the human kingdom has also begun to set foot in the Nalun Desert. I think His Majesty the King will summon many heroic jackals." Human warriors, come back here to kill those small and cowardly humans and turn them into delicious dried meat."

"Go back? You timid things will know to go back!"

Assage lowered his head with anger in his eyes, but he didn't dare to say these words.

I was able to cross the Nalun Desert safely and come here, relying on the protection of these gnoll guards. After losing these cunning and cowardly things, it is estimated that it will be difficult to return to the Gray Mane Kingdom.

Licking his lips, Assage said, "Then go back."

"This is a wise decision, Lord Assage."

The Gnoll guards nodded quickly, with reassuring smiles on their faces.

Assage looked at them coldly, and felt even more angry in his heart, but thinking of the news from those low-level gnolls, the anger in his heart seemed to be poured with cold water.

There was also a bit of fear in the green eyes.

The heavy cavalry unit of the human kingdom has come to the Nalun Desert again, and there are many heavy infantry attached to it, all of which are extremely elite troops with strong combat effectiveness.

It even destroyed the largest tribe of wolf men in the southern part of the Nalun Desert, and it was frightening!

Although they are uncivilized, unintelligent, and unable to join the low-level gnolls of the Gray Mane Kingdom, there are at least 2,000 people. Even the regular army of the Gray Mane Kingdom, the fully armed high-level gnoll warriors, want to destroy them quickly. It takes a lot of effort and casualties to get it done.

But the troops of these human kingdoms destroyed this wolf man tribe so quickly.

"Could it be that these humans have discovered the idea that the Gray Mane Kingdom wants to invade?"

Asage swallowed.

This news is the strategic deployment of Graymane Kingdom.

The idea started after the low-level gnolls who migrated there 10 years ago informed the Gray Mane Kingdom formed by the high-level gnolls that there was a human kingdom on the other side of the desert.

And these human beings have no reason to know that the Gray Mane Kingdom wants to invade and plunder.

"Go back quickly now."

Assage finally made up his mind.

He turned his head and looked at the bags of coarse salt carried by those low-level Gnoll miners.

As long as these white things are transported back to the Gray Mane Kingdom, then it can at least get a harvest of 1,000 silver dimes, and it will definitely be rewarded for sending back the news that the human kingdom has begun to set foot in the desert.

The high-level gnolls who formed the Gray Mane Kingdom, although they are not good at sea battles, are unable to fight against the human pirates coming from the sea, but in the inland and desert areas, the high-level gnoll warriors wearing iron armor and holding battle axes will be the most powerful , can easily compete with 3 human warriors with the same equipment.

As long as those cavalry who are covered in iron armor are fine.

Assage added in his mind.

Steady mind.

It turned its head to look at the jackals who were about to leave, grabbed a whip, and began to reprimand loudly, making those hired low-level jackals who had lost their tribe all carry the rough salt mined at present.

These ready-made coarse salt cannot be thrown away.

I have been busy all the time, and in the evening and dusk, I finally cleaned up.

Water bladder, food, and coarse salt.

They can completely leave this desert and head towards the uninhabited Devil Desert to the north.

There isn't any oasis or water there.

You can only rely on the preparation in advance.

Thanks to the high physique of the wolf man, they were able to withstand the devil's land in the Nalun Desert, and it took 30 days to cross the desert to come here.

The sun is gradually setting.

Dusk makes this salt-alkali land golden.

Assage was a little heartbroken.

"I really don't know when I will be able to come back again." It gently wiped away the tears from the corners of its eyes.

Back and forth, close to 10,000 silver dimes still came in. If not for the fame and part of the capital, Assage thought that he should really jump off the cliff on the coast of Mannheim.

"Master Asage, let's go."

Behind him, 30 wolf man guards wearing iron armor and holding two-handed battle axes comforted: "The king will definitely reward you."

Assage sighed: "Let's go."

No matter how many awards there are, can there be 10,000 silver coins

It doesn't believe it.

But before Assage walked a few meters away, the low-level wolves who were carrying coarse salt behind them suddenly let out a burst of exclamation, which sounded extremely panicked.

"What's the matter with this group of low-level trash?"

Assage turned his head angrily, for these low-level gnolls, he didn't mean to look at them as compatriots.

But when it turned its head away, its pupils shrank suddenly.

On the top of the sand dunes at dusk, one by one are riding on war horses, and fully armed humans are waiting for orders.

Although it doesn't look like there are many people, but at a glance, all of them are wearing excellent armor, which has already made Assage understand that this is probably the elite advance team of the human kingdom to destroy the wolf man tribe!

"It's over!" The only word in its head.

And on the sand dunes, those human heavy cavalry in iron armor had already raised their 3-meter long spears and rushed down.

With the most straightforward killing intent.
