Lord of the Oasis Chapter 408: .The ancient passage through
Rolfe took the order, and immediately dismounted the desert robbers who accompanied him, and started to build a temporary camp here, and he was also ready to stay and wait.
This is, after all, an important estuary connecting the Sangwaya Mountains.
If there is a problem.
That would be a huge problem that directly led to the crisis in the city of "Aaron"!
The exposure is second. Since Kant is preparing to attack the Principality of Lions, Aaron's exposure is only a matter of time. After all, this important agricultural city in the mountains is to export all kinds of goods.
The identity of the city "Aaron" is the supplier of raw materials.
Ancient channels are channels.
Goods can be exported from both the 6-way and the waterway.
Using the dungeon that was once the sanctuary of the gods, as a transit, directly to this estuary, connecting to the vast Risneston River, and then exporting the goods to the entire human kingdom, and even further afield area.
These two products, salt and date palm sugar, are fully qualified to make the group of merchants frantically come to chase profits.
This is the backbone of the trade!
Kant also plans to build a new village at the mouth of the river.
Including the special building [Water Bandit's Nest], in a short period of time, it has formed a force that is difficult to suppress, out of the imagination of many nobles in the East County, completely occupying this place.
At the rear is "Aaron", a city dominated by the defending Rhodoks.
Just mobilize troops here.
With the strong 6th battle troops, there is no problem in guarding this place.
Let's not mention the nobles in the East Commandery, even if the Yinpan Kingdom and the Dark Red Sect all join forces, it is estimated that they will not be able to do anything here, especially in the ancient passage, and the intermediate node of the dungeon.
It's a big deal to retreat back to the dungeon, and guard against it.
The passage is so narrow after all.
A small number of troops are stationed here, and no amount of troops can be used.
This is exactly Kant's idea. It is basically foolproof to build a new village here, not to mention the [Water Bandit's Nest], a key recruiting building, which is definitely a powerful addition.
The 6th battle defends the city with Rhodok troops.
There are water bandits from Nord.
As long as the ruins and gravels at the estuary are opened, all the collapsed obstacles are removed, the small river in front is dug and widened, and the river is completely integrated with the Resniston River, then Kant's idea can be declared a success.
Officially step into the sphere of influence of the Principality of Lions and step onto the stage of history!
"Stay here with peace of mind."
Kant also paid particular attention to examining the surrounding area of the hill.
Looking at the surrounding gentle mountains and the slightly raised position of the ancient passage, he cautiously warned Rolf: "If someone comes here, you must guard it, and you must not easily give up here."
Rolfe also nodded solemnly: "We will stick to it."
"Very good."
Kant nodded in satisfaction.
Gently knock the horse's belly and drive the horse into the ancient passage.
Behind, 10 lion knights and 50 lion attendants followed immediately. With a gloom and darkness, they completely returned to the ancient passage. With the little light that appeared on the stone statue on the wall, they advanced extremely.
But Rolf and the Desert Bandit elite didn't keep up.
Instead, the tent was propped up.
A temporary camp has been established around this hill.
Including the remaining 10 lion riders, as well as the 10 Salander riders who had lived by Borg's side for a long time and were more familiar with the Resniston River to stay to assist Rolf and the desert robbers' elite garrison .
In the ancient passage, rolling horses' hooves beat the stone pavement, and even the sound of the river has been suppressed.
They are moving forward.
This neatly cut slate is perfect for horse treks.
Like the most sophisticated racecourse, although it is not a solid soil layer, it can also alleviate the reaction force received by the horses when they gallop, but the advantage of leveling alone is enough to solve any disadvantage.
The muddy roads in the Principality of Lions are terrible for warhorses.
Ride the horse forward.
Take a break in the middle.
It took about 24 hours to reach the dungeon.
Just one day.
There is no obstacle, except for the roar of the galloping horses in the ears, only the sound of the river, but with the familiar environment imprinted in the eyes, it shows that their path is very correct.
In the vast underground space, stone buildings that seem to have been inherited from ancient times stand.
Plenty of shimmering moss and glowing mushrooms dot it.
The gap between the slates of the square at the bottom of the foot.
On the edge of the stone.
The surfaces and corners of walls and buildings.
There is also the top of the head, which is simply treated, but there are still a few stalactites hanging down like inverted cones, all of which are underground light plants, providing a slight light, so that this space is not so dark that it is impossible to see things. .
But at the end of the ruined city, several golden lights appeared, reflecting a brighter light source.
That may not be true.
Should be called a beam of light.
Yes, it is a bright yellow golden beam of light, just like the rays of the sun.
Cooperating with those light plants, this dungeon finally appeared bright. Although it was dark like the worst rainy days, there was absolutely no problem with basic vision, and it didn't matter if there was no torch lighting.
Kant and his lion knights, who already possess mortal powers, also have excellent eyesight.
Equivalent to low-light vision.
Ride the horse forward.
The entire dungeon has been cleared, and there are ash residues in the corners.
The faint negative energy is still lingering in the dark place, but the entire space of the dungeon is full of faint positive energy, which seems to spread out due to the several beams of light.
Of course, that's true.
"Take a break."
Kant gives orders.
Since they have come to this dungeon, it means that their journey will not be too far.
From here, it takes about half a day to reach the temple at the bottom of the city of "Aaron", which is already a very close distance, thanks to the stone road built in ancient times.
Even if you walk on two legs, you can go back and forth in a day.
Faster if by boat.
This subterranean river originates from the bottom of the city of "Aaron" to the mouth of the hills in East County Territory.
It is equivalent to going down the river. Even a merchant ship with a full load of goods can follow the gentle current directly to the estuary without opening the sail. It is estimated that it will take less than a whole day.
Even if you go upstream, you can use the paddle to move forward in this gentle current.
Not to mention the breeze.
It's the wind from the Risneston River.
The mouth of the hills and rivers is the corner of the big river. The scouring of the water flow causes the air to flow and pour into the ancient passages through countless possible channels. In this closed, relatively gentle underground river space, a countercurrent wind is formed.
The specific reasons cannot, of course, be studied in detail.
But anyway.
As long as the oars and sails are used together, the speed of the boat is no less than downstream.
This is the advantage of the new village that will appear at the mouth of the river in the future. It will directly connect to the important city of "Aaron", receive a steady stream of nourishment, and get faster development.
This will be faster than "Aaron", who was doing solo exhibitions in the past.
Now Kant has the ability to do so.
A virtuous cycle has begun.
Whether it is ordinary supplies or war alerts, it is fixed with the establishment of castles and cities, and the new villages that are about to appear, no matter what route they take, they can get corresponding support.
Including the manpower and investment in the early stage, as well as the solutions to the problems encountered during the exhibition.
Light a campfire.
Lightly toasted bread and dried meat fill the stomach.
By the way, the water bladder is heated in the ashes by the campfire, providing hot water for drinking and washing.
After resting in the stone house for a while, Kant and the others finally came out again, riding their horses galloping through the ancient passage, and continuing to move forward along the once very familiar road.
About half a day passed.
A bright light appears ahead.
It's torches flickering, and a low wall appears at the end.
It was only after Kant and the others walked in that they realized that it was a low wall. It was clearly the Rhodok spearmen who were holding spears and lined up in a phalanx of spears, and were strictly guarding them.
Apparently the spearmen stationed in this temple at these times are doing their jobs very well.
There is an inexplicable roaring sound.
Get organized right away.
Not only are the spearmen in front, but in the rear, the crossbowmen with the Rhodoks and the Ravenston archers ~IndoMTL.com~ are ready to shoot.
Of course, the war was not fought.
How could they possibly attack their most respected High Lord.
"Sir!"
The soldiers stationed here saluted.
At the same time, quickly disband the formation, make way, and let Kant and the lion knights behind him ride out.
Even in the temple, James, who was originally stationed here, came here with the elite Rhodok sergeant, Rhodok sniper, and Ravenston marksman.
They received news that an unfamiliar cavalry team was approaching, and came here for fear of an accident.
"Lord Kant!"
James saluted quickly.
When I saw the figure coming from the horse, I quickly walked over and said in surprise: "I really didn't expect it to be you. Did you come from the opposite side of the ancient passage?"
"That's right." Kant nodded: "The road has been opened."
"That's great!" James exclaimed.
That was their idea.
Leave the temple.
They also came to the city on the top of the mountain.
Kant left the cave tunnel and raised his head slightly. The stars in the sky were bright, and the moonlight was shining brightly on the earth. Obviously it was night, and the night was already very deep.
"It's early morning."
James also reports the time.
"Hmm." Kant nodded: "It's so late."
"Please go to the city hall to rest first, Lord Lord." James also said respectfully: "Now the exhibition in the city has reached a stable period. After you rest tomorrow, you will be able to discover the city's exhibition. Perfect."
"Very good, I'm looking forward to it."
Kant nodded.
However, looking at the outline of the city in the night, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
It's a great show.
