Lord of the Oasis Chapter 679: .The trip to the freshwater lake
The next morning, Kant after breakfast.
A familiar carriage stopped in front of the B&B building. Kant walked out the door and saw Adonis in plain clothes sitting in the place where the groom was sitting.
As soon as Adonis saw Kant, he got off the carriage and saluted, "Lord, good morning."
"Why did you come here alone in a carriage? Where's Crowleys?" Kant asked.
"Captain Crorez's leg was accidentally injured. The freshwater lake is closer to the coal mine that I went to the day before. I'll just show you the way, Lord," Adonis replied.
"Then I'm the only one who can sit in your carriage." Kant waved his hand with a smile, and dismissed the guards who were following him: "But that's fine too, just pack lightly."
Adonis nodded and helped Kant into the carriage.
Along the way, Adonis spoke to Kant sitting in the carriage from time to time, asking about Bandak and their current situation, as well as the detailed passage of the battle on the border of the Elf Kingdom. He hadn't been back in Dehrim for three months, and much of the news had been heard sporadically. I don't know much about what's going on in Dehrim City.
"Want to go back?" Kant asked.
"I thought about it. After staying here for less than a month, I wanted to go back. But now I've been here for the fourth month, so I don't think much about it anymore." Adonis replied.
"Because of the battle before, the main city was not staffed enough, and there was no replacement for your troops. In fact, it was time for you to go back to rest." Kant said: "Do you still have family in Deherim? "
"Yes, I have a wife and children. My wife will send me a letter every two weeks. The children are still young, so I don't know why I left." Adonis said: "Actually, there is no place here. It's hard work. Rather than going back, I want my family to come and see."
"Dehrim has a ban on leaving the city, and this has failed," Kant said.
The sand is getting bigger and bigger. Even if the two are only less than a meter apart, they still need to shout loudly to hear what each other is saying.
"That's a pity," Adonis said.
If possible, he would like to live here with his family for a long time. However, his wife and children should not be willing. After all, the hustle and bustle of Dehrim always looks attractive.
The two of them chatted laboriously all the way and walked this distance. When they reached the side of Banyue Lake, the wind gradually became smaller.
So Kant was able to stand by the lake and take a closer look at the appearance of the Half Moon Lake.
The lake is turquoise blue and is located between two sand dunes. With the extension of the field of vision, Kant estimated in his heart that this freshwater lake was about a dozen square kilometers.
Really rare.
The undead who lived here before probably didn't care much about water sources like the elves.
Let it grow naturally to its current size.
The more Kant thought about it, the more he realized that this former city of the dead was a treasure.
Kant squatted down and probed the lake water on the shore. The lake is clear and cool, and there seems to be a breeze blowing when it is close to the water.
"Lord." Adonis called back Kant, who was born.
Kant stood up, but his figure was a little dazed.
"Be careful!" Adonis quickly stepped forward to support Kant.
"I'm sorry, but my health seems to have gotten a little worse recently." Kant said to Adonis with a smile after he stood up.
"Lord, pay attention to your body." Adonis said worriedly.
Kant nodded, accepting his offer. You looked sideways at the lake: "This lake is really beautiful, more valuable than an oasis in the desert. Durandall is indeed lucky to have such resources by his side."
"After a few months, the rainy season in the Naron Desert will come again," said Adonis.
"Before the rainy season, a reservoir must be built to store water." Kant came to this conclusion in his mind after observing on the spot.
"If you say that, it's true. I neglected and forgot this point on the planning manuscript before. I'm really sorry, Lord." After thinking of this, Adonis apologized to Kant.
"No hurry, this matter is too busy with the manpower in your city." Kant responded: "After staying here for two days, I feel that I want to make Durandal a typical industrial city. It's more complicated than expected."
At least so far, there are several issues that require significant human effort to resolve.
I really want to solve all these things before the founding of the country. Kant said silently in his heart.
On the way back, Adonis drove the carriage at a much slower speed than before.
One is that the strong wind in the desert has stopped now, and the other is that considering Kant's physical condition, he doesn't want to cause him discomfort because of his rush.
Kant sat in the car for a while, feeling a little airless inside.
He walked out and sat next to the driver's seat.
Summing the desert landscape.
As a result, a group of wandering gnolls was spotted on the far horizon.
Kant can't help frowning, thinking about asking Adonis: "Didn't the soldiers guarding the city find anything?"
"It's quite common for other races to live abroad like this. But they don't seem to dare to approach Durandal. I don't know if they are afraid of the undead, or they are afraid of the soldiers under the command of Bandak." Adonis replied.
Soldiers led by Adonis are responsible for patrolling the city and borders.
So far, there has not been a single attack from these wandering races.
Kant nodded when he heard what Adonis said: "But you still have to pay attention, the security tower has not been fully constructed yet. Only the soldiers stationed in the city are guarding the city."
"Yes!" Adonis answered loudly.
Wait until Kant looks in the direction just now~IndoMTL.com~ The gnolls have disappeared.
In the evening, Adonis' carriage drove outside the gate of the B&B building.
After saying goodbye to Kant, Adonis continued to drive the carriage to the barracks, and he still had a lot of military affairs waiting for him to settle.
After dinner, Kant returned to his room.
Began to write down the feelings I have seen in the last few days in writing.
Drawed a circle-shaped resource relationship diagram on the manuscript paper, thinking about how to use the resources in hand and arrange everything about Durandal clearly after returning to Dehrim.
After all, the required inputs of each project are related to each other.
It is important to identify the steps in order to properly allocate resources together.
Until late at night, Kant was still sitting at the table, making plans for the future Durandall. A whole pile of discarded manuscript paper was piled up beside his elbow.
