Lord of the Oasis Chapter 25: .The refugees of Swadia
After traveling day and night, Kant was exhausted after returning to the sentry oasis.
He needs to get a good night's sleep and replenish his mental and physical strength before he will seriously consider the next arrangement, including the construction of 5 Swadia standard houses rewarded by the system, design and planning issues, which need careful consideration.
The Sentinel Oasis isn't a sprawling oasis.
According to specific estimates, the area of the entire sentry oasis is pitifully small, even less than 1,000 square meters.
There is also a pond where the spring water of 25 x 6 meters gathers.
These stone and wood-based Swadia houses, each building covers an area of at least 150 square meters, and the five buildings can directly block the south side of the sentry oasis regardless of planning.
Of course Kant does not.
He will take care of the planning of these buildings.
And Kant didn't sleep too long.
Open your eyes.
Kant's eyes swept across the window, the sky was bright.
Rubbing his face and recovering his energy, he dressed and walked down the stairs. Several Swadian recruits were coming out of the storage room. When they saw Kant coming downstairs, they quickly bowed and saluted respectfully.
"Lord Lord, good afternoon."
"Well, good afternoon." Kant nodded.
Eyes swept over the cabbage and dried meat in their hands, as if preparing food.
And one of them's answer also proves this: "Sir, it's almost noon, we are preparing lunch."
"Is it noon?"
Rubbing his brows, Kant waved to the respectful recruits, "You all continue to work."
The few recruits nodded respectfully: "As ordered, my lord." Then they took these things to the kitchen.
The kingdom of Swadia is hierarchical.
Walking out of the Consular Hall, the sun was hot, and the unbearable temperature suddenly swept over.
"Lord Lord."
The Swadian militiamen standing in front of the gate salute respectfully.
Construction workers wearing long robes and hoods are carrying materials lightly, even if they beat them with a hammer, they put handkerchiefs on them, for fear that the sound they make will affect the silence in the consulate next to them.
Kant turned his head to look.
The watchtower has taken shape.
The foundation and platform are all made of stone, and the walls and stairs are made of sturdy wood. Although it has not yet been completed, the specific appearance has already appeared. It is estimated that it will be completed within 7 days. There is absolutely no problem with this.
"Lord Lord, you are back."
The leader of the construction workers ran over with a smile on his honest face.
"Yes." To this seemingly simple and honest leader, who was actually full of cunning Swadian businessmen, Kant just nodded and said plainly: "Guaranteed progress, it is best to complete it as scheduled, this is very important. Important."
"Don't worry, my lord, it will definitely be completed on schedule." The construction leader sneered.
Kant nodded: "This is the best."
"I'll urge them to do it faster."
The construction team leader obviously understood that Kant had noticed his own thoughts.
He wanted to flatter but was unsuccessful. He was still quite afraid of Kant, the lord. He reluctantly smiled and chatted a few times, and then he hurried away and did not dare to stay by Kant's side.
"Cunning Merchant."
Looking at his back, Kant shook his head slightly.
The characters embodied in the system have their own personalities and consciousness, not rigid NPC programs.
But precisely because of this, these characters also include flattery, comparison, jealousy, and even bullying, fear of hardship, and ruthlessness. Although they have not been fully manifested in front of Kant, they can be considered as signs.
I really don't know if it's good or bad.
But as long as he remains loyal to Kant, he doesn't want to interfere too much.
Now, the more important task is to build 5 standard houses of Swadia.
Kant took a walk on the south side of the spring.
After walking a few steps, I could only turn around and continue walking back.
"Too small."
Frowning slightly, Kant sighed inwardly.
The Sentinel Oasis is indeed too small, and the current planning requires extreme caution.
He wants to think about the future.
Think for a moment.
Kant's eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes swept across the sand outside the oasis, his heart suddenly moved, he immediately contacted the system in his head, and asked silently: "System, can you build buildings on the sand? "
He undoubtedly made the mistake of empiricism.
With the help of the system, these buildings of Kant, even if they are built on sand, are as strong!
And the system simply replied: "It can be built."
Kant smiled.
Sure enough.
Following the horizontal line of the Consulate Hall, the Watchtower and the Desert Bandit Stronghold, Kant walked 10 meters to the south.
Underfoot is already a layer of soft sand.
"Okay." And Kant nodded slightly: "That's it."
As the system confirmed the system, the five standard Swadia houses immediately materialized in this world, and a large amount of data began to wrap around each other, and in just a few seconds, the whole thing appeared.
The foundation and walls are built with neat stones, about 30 cm thick, which brings firmness and weight.
And a sense of security.
The top is a beveled roof, made of neat and dry wood. In order to avoid the erosion of rain, a layer of tiles is also laid on it, but in the desert, it is obvious that there is no need to worry about the rain.
Because it doesn't rain at all in the desert.
This concern is completely gone.
The five houses are arranged one after the other, just forming a horizontal line.
It sits facing north, with the door facing the spring, which coincides with the Consulate Hall and the desert robber stronghold.
The 10 meters that Kant walked in the middle has just become a street now.
In the middle of the five houses, there is no gap at all, and the walls are connected to the walls, almost one next to the other. If you go to the roof by a ladder, you can easily go from the beginning to the end.
This is of course deliberate for safety.
Kant thought about it.
If a large number of enemies attack, the troops in the house can quickly appear on this 10-meter-wide street, and rely on the buildings on both sides to form an array to firmly defend the street.
They blocked the street on both sides.
The Swadian infantry, with their polearms, can safely deploy with a small number of troops.
As for the rest, they can stand on the roof, use the 3-meter-high wall as a shooting position, hold hunting crossbows to shoot at the enemies attacking on both sides, and support those comrades who are struggling to support the two sides of the street.
Even if there are enemies who climb up the roof to fight them hand-to-hand, they can easily repel them if they take the advantage of the terrain first.
This arrangement already has the prototype of a fortress.
In fact, Kant also meant it!
The gnoll threat is close at hand ~IndoMTL.com~ is a crushing situation for Sentinel Oasis.
Peaceful development does not belong to the current "Dehrim".
Not only villages built like fortresses, Kant's ultimate requirement for "De Herim" is that those castles in the system are tall, strong, and can firmly guard one side.
This is the southernmost part of the Narun Desert, the only oasis with water.
It is a traffic point.
Whether you want to go deep into the Narun Desert from the Sanwaya Mountains, or climb over the Sanwaya Mountains from the Narun Desert and enter human society, this small oasis is the only way to go.
Kant's "Deherim" is a nail.
Not to mention the current Kant, and the most direct threat of the gnoll.
With these simple defensive arrangements, with the current 30 Swadian recruits, and 35 Swadian militiamen, they can mount a stubborn resistance even if there is another night attack of more than 500 gnolls .
As long as there is no extraordinary strength, they can withstand it.
"At least have the power to protect themselves."
Kant nodded secretly.
Although the threat of the gnoll tribe is still there, Kant's development is extremely fast.
The situation is changing.
At this moment, the system dialog box instantly appeared on Kant's retina.
