Lord of the Oasis Chapter 295: .The perception of the mage apprentice

Urn City is the crystallization of the wisdom of city defense.

It's certainly not a problem for Kant to use it to build his own castle.

Only an indestructible castle can firmly occupy this place, such as the Weng City, fortifications with excellent defensive ideas, as many as can be built.

If the city's defense is infallible, it means that the castle is safe and still has control over the place.

If it weren't for the modern bastion, it would be purely for military use, unable to take into account civilian life and regional development. Kant estimated that the city wall of the "Drehem" castle would have been completely built into the style of a bastion.

After all, it is a bastion of all kinds of crossfire, even in the age of cold weapons, it has a strong side.

It also has a good defensive effect on weapons such as siege towers.

But no way.

A bastion is a complete fortress, a standing fortification evolved from modern artillery tactics.

No civilians can live in it, let alone build houses. Except for the barracks, which are tunnels, plus various ammunition depots and firepower points, even the barracks are built next to the city wall, so that the role of the entire bastion can be maximized!

For now, building two urns is enough.

"Unfortunately."

Kant felt a little regretful.

Actually, his strength is still a little weak.

The construction of the castle consumes too much heritage, and it also requires a large number of troops to be stationed after construction.

Just like the current "Drehem" castle, although there are many archers, they can only focus on defending one gate. If the enemy attacks two gates at the same time, the cavalry must be dismounted to assist in defending the city. Just the door.

The gate is the key.

The 10-meter-high city wall does not have advanced siege weapons, and if you want to capture it, it is like a moat.

No general would ever make such a foolish mistake.

Comparatively, city gates are iron and wooden objects that can be broken by low-level siege weapons, such as siege cones, rams, or simpler knives and axes. cause some damage.

So the key to defending the city actually lies in the defense of the city gate.

For example, the crossbowmen on the towers and arrow towers on both sides.

For example, the fortified King Kong gate, and the defensive infantry behind the gate.

Nowadays, considering the construction of an urn city and strengthening the defense capabilities at the city gate, it is obvious that the defense level of the entire castle has been improved in quality, not to mention the invincible iron cavalry under Kant's men as a threat, it is obviously impossible to siege the city in one go !

"Fatis, you are responsible for the construction of the two urn cities at the southeast gate."

Kant tells Fatis.

"Yes." Fatis answered.

"Be cautious."

Kant frowned slightly, his heart still a little throbbing.

Looking to the north, deep in the Naron Desert, I subconsciously touched my heart: "I always feel that something bad is brewing over there..." After a while, he sighed softly: "I hope It's an illusion."

But even if it is an illusion, in Kant's heart, he is still wary of the depths of the Naron Desert.

The lost city of the Age of the Gods is over there.

The blood of the sun god, a holy city of gold forged in the depths of the desert!

Even in the underground caves of the ancient passages, there are relics of those sun gods, and even the demons, undead and gods who survived in the time of the ancient gods.

If there is nothing in the Holy City of Gold, it must be impossible!

Not to mention the so-called saintess.

"I remember inside the temple on the top of the mountain, I once killed a certain woman."

Kant muses.

That's the same god-born in the golden coffin.

However, because the groundwater was surging near the platform, the current was turbulent, and because he had no shipbuilding skills, he had not yet taken out the golden coffin, nor had he checked the goddess he killed.

Next to it is the killed succubus.

This shows that the war between the gods and the demons has long since reached a stage where they are fighting each other's blood.

Otherwise, there is no place where there can be gods now, and there must be demons.

"I need to bring more elite troops."

Kant made up his mind.

The current royal knights and lion knights are the best helpers to keep him safe.

As for the ordinary top-level cavalry, he doesn't plan to bring too many. After all, too many people are not as convenient as a few elites, not to mention going to the unknown depths of the desert, where there may be the location of the Golden Holy City.

30 Swadian knights, 20 Lion knights, that's enough.

He looked stunned.

Kant decided in his heart: "There is still a mage apprentice!"

Although all the 7 mages stayed in the town of "Aaron", the current "Drehem" castle, with the recruitment in recent days, the number of apprentices has reached 5 again.

Although it is not very useful, at least it is a mage who has been exposed to mysterious magic.

If you encounter something related to magic elements, you can also give Kant a warning or make suggestions first.

Since it's decided.

"Okay, that's it."

Kant said: "Fatis, you come to arrange the supplies for this trip."

"Yes." Fatis nodded.

Soon, all supplies will be ready.

Each person carries 5 days' worth of fresh water and food, as well as necessary ignition items and flammable charcoal, plus leather jackets to keep out the cold and tents to block the scorching sun, and are well prepared.

After all, they are all extraordinary knights, and the war horses under their crotch seem to be otherworldly and cannot be regarded as regular war horses.

Load capacity becomes extremely high.

Just like knights possess extraordinary powers, these war horses may be infected with this mysterious and powerful extraordinary power.

If it is placed in the Sangwaya Mountains, I am afraid that some people believe that the demonized creatures can run fast, after all, with a knight in full armor moving at an instantaneous speed, an ordinary warhorse will definitely not be able to do it.

Such as the usual Swadian knight's rush charge at the pinnacle.

It is actually a very difficult choice to keep up with the normal marching speed of the Royal Knights.

After noon, the scorching sun eased slightly.

The time is about 14:00 pm.

"Lord Kant, please take care of your health and safety."

Fatis stood in front of the city gate and said with great concern: "Only your existence can prove the value of our existence."

The many knights and marksmen behind him all looked at Kant eagerly.

If their lord needs it, they are willing to come forward and join this mission into the uncharted territory of the desert to protect the Kant lord, even if they are killed in battle!

But Kant doesn't need too many people.

This expedition is considered to be light, and it is mainly based on exploration.

After crossing the saline-alkali land, it is the unfamiliar central area of ​​the Nalen Desert. If you continue inward, it is the Devil's Zone that the high-level jackals of the Greymane Kingdom call it, which may be the cause of the sandstorm a month ago.

That's where Kant intends to go and explore.

"No problem."

Kant nodded.

With his legs lightly knocking on the horse's belly, he supported the King's Sword at his waist and said solemnly, "Let's go!"

The royal knights and lion knights immediately followed.

At the same time, the 5 apprentices, also riding on 5 sturdy pack horses, marched at a constant speed beside Kant, heading towards the depths of the desert, and soon the entire team left the range of the sentry oasis.

With the slightly slower temperature, the marching process is not a torment.

The journey was uneventful.

Several gnoll corpses can also be seen on both sides of the road.

They are all dirty, low-level gnolls, bony appearances that have been dried into jerky by the sun.

Kant's eyes swept over.

No sign of pity.

If he hadn't plundered these gnolls, risked directly destroying their camps and wells, and even failed to defend against the attacks of their cousins, the higher gnolls, then it would be them who turned into jerky now.

No, it should be said that it will turn into a pile of useless, unrecognizable, gnoll excrement!

Humans are a delicious, tender meat for a gnoll recipe!

The strong eat the weak!

This is the desert of Naron, and the law of the jungle is more cruel.

The resources in the desert are impossible to maintain two factions, and even maintaining one faction is very difficult. It is impossible for the lower gnolls and Kant's castle to coexist peacefully!

There is an inherent conflict between the two parties.

Right to live!

Whoever wants to survive must occupy the resources of the entire Naron Desert.

Just as he has won the victory and gained control of the Naron Desert, Kant, who has developed, has obtained the ultimate right to survive, and then he can become a higher-level victor.

This is the law of the jungle.

Gnolls are weak, so they can only be eaten by Kant.

Only by eating these meats can Kant gain a stronger physique and eat the meat of other weak people.

Layer-by-layer associations.

The weak can only fail and turn into wrecks to show their sorrow.

But so what?

The strong don't care about the weak!

All the way to the large camp where the low-level gnolls were once, from a distance, a dozen low-level gnolls were running away, and it seemed that they had already discovered them.

However, Kant did not order an attack.

Now, he doesn't care about these low-level gnolls who have been scattered.

In other words, this group of former opponents has lost the ability to threaten him, not even a stepping stone!

"Lord Lord."

Behind, the mage apprentices pointed to the front and said, "It was there that we sensed the convergence of a little water element."

They are pointing in the direction of the big camp.

A huge bunker appeared there, seemingly dug by these lesser gnolls.

Kant nodded: "Yes, there used to be a well there."

"Let's go and see."

Kant tapped his horse's belly.

Lead the team in the past, after all, this is where he once fought **** battles.

The knights immediately followed.

Soon arrived at the former big camp~IndoMTL.com~ The sandstorm has wiped away all the darkness left by the fire, only a messy puddle, and the surrounding messy footsteps and leftovers Skeletons.

There are desert antelopes, and there are gnolls.

Looks terrible.

But Kant didn't care, and looked into the puddle with his head.

The bottom of the four-to-five-meter-deep puddle was sprinkled with various stones, but the bottom was still blocked by a large amount of sand. Only water emerged from the ground. It was a puddle half a meter small and extremely turbid.

If Kant wanted to drink it, he had to filter it.

This is the well he once destroyed directly.

"Well, the bottom of this puddle..."

The mage apprentices closed their eyes slightly, and said to Kant after sensing: "It seems that there is an underground dark river. We perceive a very strong water element. Although we are separated by the sand layer, we can still perceive that the water is very abundant, so Only then can the fresh water seep upward to form this little puddle.”
