Lord of the Oasis Chapter 276: .Mage’s room for relaxation
The mage stood in front of Kant extremely respectfully, bowing his head and arching his waist, very humble.
As a large number of great knights are staring at the side, his so-called pride and self-respect as a mage has actually flown to nowhere along with his dead companions.
It's just grovelling, as long as you can live.
So he intends to speak out about Kant's problems as long as he knows them.
Very cooperative.
Kant nodded with satisfaction.
Riding on one's own warhorse, the King's Sword has been re-sheathed.
But the aura of being a high-ranking person, and the power of victory, made this mage sweat uncontrollably from his forehead. Obviously, he was extremely afraid of Kant and the great knights around him.
Mage is weaker than the Great Knight in melee combat.
The battlefield is cleaned up.
The Swadian knights have placed the bodies together.
Including the two parts that have been burnt, the rich **** smell mixed with the scorched stench, which pervades the nose and is very unpleasant.
The mage swept over these corpses, and they were all familiar figures. Although they had known each other for only a week, and there were even some frictions and hatreds, these guys just turned into corpses and were slaughtered like lambs. There was a throbbing in his heart, and he turned his head to look to the side.
For his unbearable look, Kant's mouth curled into a smile, reached out and took out a handkerchief in his arms, covered his mouth and nose to avoid the corpse odor, and asked in a muffled voice, "Who are they?"
"They...they..."
The mage opened his mouth to answer, but his lips were trembling and he didn't know what to say.
He's just joined.
It's only temporarily for profit to join this assassination team.
As for the 7 attackers with the level of great knights, as well as the 2 top archers, in fact he didn't know them at all, but the mage looked up at Kant and the surrounding great knights staring at him. Appearance, trembling in my heart, I don't know this word, I can't say it.
He couldn't say it, but Kant was not surprised.
You can tell from their appearance that they are not a long-term team, but more like a short-term team.
"Don't know?"
Kant asked, still covering his mouth and nose.
"Yes." The mage swallowed, his voice trembling.
The speculative fury did not appear.
Kant looked at him and continued to ask: "I used to study in the academy not far from the Mage Tower in the Principality of Lions, and I knew many mage faces, but you are very unfamiliar. I have a good memory and can be sure of you. There has never been a mage tower in the Principality of Lions, and it doesn't look like a mage inside the mage tower, which makes me very puzzled."
"I am a wandering mage from the Kingdom of Silver Plate."
The mage quickly replied: "The Holy Church of the Silver Plate Kingdom has fully started expelling the mage forces this year. The mage tower we are in cannot be maintained, so we can only choose to evacuate." After hesitating for a moment, he continued: "I'm just an outsider. Mage, does not belong to the inheritance mage of their mage tower, so I can only be abandoned when I evacuate, and I came to the Principality of Lions in order to make a living, trying to find a place to stay."
"Well, that's right." Kant nodded. He also knew the inside story of the Silver Plate Kingdom. The Holy See, who believed in the God of Holy Light, was indeed expelling non-Holy See forces.
For example, the Mage Tower, which also possesses extraordinary power, is within the expulsion range.
This is due to the history of the Silver Plate Kingdom.
After all, this country was established with the support of the Holy See when the country was founded. Therefore, the Pope's power is comparable to that of a king. It is a country with a political and religious system, and it also has its own Knights of the Guardian Court, which is a top-level religious armament.
There is such a saying in the Kingdom of Silver Plate.
Flesh to the King, soul to the Light.
The meaning is obvious. The king and his nobles have the right to rule over the kingdom and the people, while the Holy See is the pillar of faith for the people and even the nobles. There are occasional filth between the two sides, but there has never been a conflict. edge of the world
But where there are people, there is fighting.
The aristocratic forces are not reconciled, and they really divide their rights with the Holy See.
The power of mages is the target of the nobles. After all, mages with elemental power are more destructive than priests with healing magic, various restoration magic, and a little destructive magic. on a lot.
The two sides colluded to suppress the position of the Holy See.
But for now.
Obviously the Holy See has won the final victory, expelling mages across the country.
This also has the permission of the king.
Perhaps there are compromises.
The matter of the Yinpan Kingdom has nothing to do with Kant. Instead, he has a slight affection for the mage who knows everything in front of him, nods his head in satisfaction, and asks the last question.
"Do you know the employer?" Kant asked.
"Employer..."
Mage apparently doesn't have the work ethic of an assassin.
He wasn't an assassin either.
After hesitating for a moment, he said to Kant: "My employer seems to be the eastern county leader from the Principality of Lions, and the person I negotiated with was just an ordinary gentleman, but I think the real employer must be hidden behind his back."
"East County Leader." Kant squinted: "This is really unexpected."
He thought it would be the leader of the South County, or the leader of the North County.
The employer from the East County Territory was really unexpected.
After all, compared with the nobles of Nanjun, who are full of enemies, the nobles of Beijun, who are greedy for salt mines, have been closed for 10 years, and the leaders of Dongjun, who have not had much communication, have a neutral relationship with Kant.
No hatred, no goodwill, and no connection whatsoever.
"Lord Baron Kant."
The mage swallowed and hesitated: "That's all I know, can you let me go? I'm just an ordinary wandering mage, and I had a conflict with these teammates. I released the fire wall at the time, which was also wrong. Your team was allowed to be released directly, but it only blocked your path, so you and I should have room to ease."
"Well, I know very well." Kant nodded, he was telling the truth, so he said: "I won't kill you."
"Thank you so much for your kindness!"
The mage immediately bowed in excitement.
But before he could lift it up, the golden light was dazzling, and a mace slammed into the back of his head in an instant. The whole head was like a watermelon that burst open. go down.
"But someone will kill you."
Kant's voice fell, and his face was calm: "You know too much."
The royal knight wielding a mace next to him dismounted, and directly threw the mage's corpse with its head open and shattered aside. At the same time, the knight dismounted and quickly searched for any valuable items on these corpses.
Kant rode his horse to the side.
The smell of corpse and blood mixed, very strong, and he was a little disgusted.
It was his decision to kill the mage.
Although his own strengths are all elites, when he has not digested the fruits of the current victory and fully developed into a giant, Kant does not intend to let his power be known to outsiders.
Slightly flexing muscles is enough to arouse the vigilance of those with ill-conceived intentions.
But with absolute force.
What greets you is not submission, but all kinds of hostility.
[Comprehensive Hong Kong] Dreaming of TVB
Kant has not yet made a plan to completely tear his face with the nobles of the Principality of Lions.
Today, his entire army is no more than 2,000 men.
Even if you can break through the Stone Pass, successfully enter the Principality of Lions, and even capture the barren North County Territory, and even attack the East County Territory and the Southern Territory, your next rule will be particularly weak.
A mere 2,000 people, with full calculation, all recruited into a 5,000-strong army.
Can you completely rule the entire territory of the Lion Principality?
This is impossible.
This is even more unrealistic!
Without 5,000 regular troops and 30,000 civilians, Kant would not initiate a war that could destroy the country.
At present, his troops are based on strategic defense and tactical offense.
There is no problem holding the Narun Desert.
Secretly planning the Principality of the Lion, just as he now allows Manid to penetrate the Stone Pass and let the bankrupt businessman Borg return to the East County Territory to develop off the assembly line, boil the frog in warm water, and slowly control the Principality of the Lion in hand.
With the help of the system, Kant can do it easily.
The knights searched the body.
Coming behind Kant, Hui reported: "Lord Lord, we have obtained 1 staff, 2 parchment scrolls with incantations, and 300 large silver coins with us. As for the war horses they ride, Seems to be exhausted, all exhausted behind the dunes, of no value."
"Well, I see." Kant nodded.
These are his trophies, and naturally they must be looted.
Just when he wanted to continue to lead the team away, a large number of cavalry appeared in the sand dunes to the south.
It should be a large-scale cavalry team advancing. Although the sound has not yet been heard, there is a lot of dust behind them. The horses are galloping at high speed, and the yellow fine dust fills the air.
The knights immediately regrouped next to Kant.
It's just that the alert is lifted soon.
The cavalry teams coming from afar are desert robbers and Sarandian riders.
Rolf is leading the charge.
Seeing the corpses at the feet of Kant and the knights, his face was a little embarrassed. He fiercely used his horsewhip to twitch his crotch and the warhorse rushed over at high speed. He eagerly asked Kant: "Lord Kant, are you not injured? We are late! "
"It's okay."
Kant nodded, not blaming Rolfe.
Most of these attackers have extraordinary strength, and it is estimated that if Rolf catches up and comes over, they will not be able to solve these attackers. Instead, they will definitely suffer tragic casualties.
This is class suppression.
A few words~IndoMTL.com~ Rolfe was relieved to see no casualties.
However, when he turned his head to look at the corpses, he also felt a little palpitated with the fighting power of the Great Knight.
Can't help but say to Kant: "This world has such power, I can't imagine what kind of danger my cavalry will face if they encounter these 10 guys."
"If you encounter them in the future, if you have no advantage, retreat immediately."
Kant calmly said: "Maintain strength."
"Yes." Rolfe sighed, a rare look of depression appeared on his face.
After all, this kind of terrifying combat power is indeed unacceptable to him who came from the original world of history.
"That's right." Kant said: "Since you are here, then I will give you three Swadian Royal Knights. They are all top-level knights comparable to these great knights. Encountering such a big knight, I think it can temporarily alleviate the predicament of the central station."
"Thank you for your help." Rolfe was overjoyed.
