Lord of the Oasis Chapter 301: .The evil under the sand


The sun is shining, but I don't know when it's noon.

The sand layer that had been frozen into a slab was heated and evaporated, turning into a curling water mist and rising, like a soft mist, which distorted the surrounding desert, but was quickly evaporated to nothing by the suppressed heat.

At noon, when the Naron Desert is the hottest, it is also the time when the positive energy is the most intense.

None of the clouds and dense fog that gathers negative energies can stop it.

The cold melts away.

The undead retreat without a trace.

Kant rode his horse on the spot, and in less than half an hour, it seemed like a long time had passed.

Turn his head slightly, the traces of the Anza camp next to him are still there, and even the bonfire has not been completely extinguished, and curls of green smoke are released in the sand layer, bringing a different color to this space.

Looking up and looking forward, the endless sand sea is still the same yellow and desolate appearance.

Looks the same as usual.

But Kant understands that it is impossible to return to the past.

The surrounding sand layer is full of broken bones, scattered bones all over the floor, as well as tattered halberds and chainmail, and the sand layers are slowly moving with the breeze blowing tattered linen.

That's the legacy of undead skeletons!

"Lord Lord."

The apprentice mage spoke, and Shen Shenghui reported: "The negative energy belonging to the undead has dissipated."

"Very good." Kant nodded.

However, in a slightly contemplative tone, he raised his head and looked forward, and said solemnly, "Go on!"

"Yes!"

The knights behind them responded immediately.

The warhorse strode, and the horse's hooves stepped on the broken bones on the ground, sinking into the sand and leaving a mark.

Danger lies ahead.

But Kant still doesn't want to stop moving forward. Now it is not just as simple as completing system tasks, but at the same time he also has to investigate what is in the depths of the desert, and how many terrifying undead are there!

This is the depths of the Naron Desert.

Location, it is 4 days away from the Salt Mine and 7 days away from the Salt Mine Station.

It is also an 8-day journey from Sentinel Oasis.

If the undead here start to expand, then the "Drehem" castle located in the sentry oasis is also located on the expansion line of these undeads, or in other words, directly facing the expansion of the undead!

The veil of death that seems to cover the sky will spread.

Like last night.

Kant was camped on the edge of the canopy of death.

And when I woke up this morning, I found that I had been included in the sky of death, and I didn't know where I was!

Only at noon when the sun is the most blazing, the positive energy gathers its terrifying power to disperse the sky of death, allowing Kant and the others to regain the shroud of light.

If this terrifying sky of death converges over the Sentinel Oasis.

Kant wasn't sure.

What a blow to your own "Drehem" castle!

Even if it spreads to the salt mines, the damage is huge.

Representing Kant's salt mines will leave him, and the golden eagles that are plundered by the salt trade every week will cut off the source, and even have a chain reaction, making his "Drehem" castle completely in an endless loop .

If you can't solve the death curtain, you can't get golden eagles in exchange for dinars, and you can't maintain your troops.

And can't maintain the force, let alone solve the death sky!

Back and forth.

An infinite loop, which makes Kant feel like an infinite loop that is strangling his throat!

He must not allow his development to be directly interrupted by the sudden arrival of the undead, let alone allow his castle to become a bridgehead against the invasion of the undead in vain, and be buried by the human nobles behind him!

The nobles of the Lion Principality who only focus on immediate interests really dare to do this.

Kant is sure!

As long as Kant is killed, the desert salt mine will fall into the hands of the nobles of these lion principalities. As for the undead? This group of nobles, who are full of interests and disregard the overall situation, do not think that they will be unable to resist the undead.

After all, there used to be these undead in some ancient tombs on this road.

The nobles are no strangers to the undead.

Especially in the Northern Territory, the graves that can breed the undead can be seen everywhere. Almost every knight or noble land has such a place where the undead are disturbed.

Even if it is not an ancient tomb, even if it is a cemetery for decades, there may be undead.

After all, negative energies meet the resentment of the dead, and it is normal for the undead to appear.

But the number of those undead is not large. They are organized by farmers to recruit farmers and armed militias. They can be solved by dispatching a spear and infantry. Compared with the demonized creatures in the Sanwaya Mountains, the danger level is almost 100%. Weak to pitiful.

How can it be compared to the undead troops in this sky of death?

Just now!

These undead have created a terrifying canopy of death.

Except for knights with extraordinary powers that can be ignored, ordinary elite entry will weaken the combat effectiveness.

If it were ordinary people, thin and frail farmers, it would not be long before the negative energy mixed with resentment eroded the mind and body, died of illness and panic, and even eroded the body by the negative energy of the sky of death. Re-turned into the dead, with extreme fear and resentment, as well as hatred of the living, turned into an undead zombie!

This is also recorded in some ancient books in this world. There are even books in the college's collection about large-scale undead dispatch, negative energy gathering, and resentment turning the entire village's residents into zombies example of.

But this kind of example has been around for a long time.

But in front of the example, it still shows the horror of the undead!

Kant himself may be able to resist the invasion of the undead, but he will never be able to take care of the secret staff of the Lion Principality!

"One must be resolved first."

Gritting his teeth slightly, Kant has already made up his mind.

First detect the undead, preemptively curb their desire to expand, ensure the safety of the salt mines, rapidly develop their own power in a short period of time, and subdue those nobles in the Principality of Lions, this is the best plan.

The undead are definitely there for a reason.

In the cave dungeon at the end of the ancient passage, the old lich foreshadowed this.

"I'm so stupid."

Kant gritted his teeth, and his face was gloomy as he rode forward.

Since everyone knows that even the so-called Pope of the Sun God Cult has become a lich, the Lost City that has suffered a great disaster, that is, the golden holy city where the Sun God descendants live, how can there be no accidents?

According to the piecemeal information given by those demons and gods, the original gods and demons were all exhausted.

It's like the Third World War broke out between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

The two sides threw nuclear warheads at each other.

In the end, both suffered massive and irreparable damage.

In order to win the final victory, both sides used any means available. Now it seems that even the means of the undead are used, and they simply ignore it, just to kill each other.

A genocidal war.

But in the end it was a lose-lose, and the remaining power still has an impact.

While thinking wildly in their minds, the mage and apprentices next to them turned more and more serious. They rode their horses forward, stepping on the sand and facing the scorching sun, and continued to approach the depths of the Nalen Desert. Finally, they seemed to find something.

"Lord Lord!"

The apprentice mage spoke suddenly.

Kant instantly recovered, turned his head and said, "What's wrong."

Mage apprentices from the Enfass Empire, although they do not master powerful spells, can still bring a lot of useful effects in the perception of spiritual power and knowledge of magic.

It is very useful, for example, to perceive and analyze various energy elements.

"We know where the dead go."

The mage and apprentices opened their mouths, and their faces were even more serious: "There are also those dark clouds and thick fog that make up the sky of death."

"Where?" Kant frowned.

"Just below the... sand layer, the soles of our feet!" the apprentice mage said solemnly.

Slightly paused.

The knights next to him subconsciously slowed down the speed of the horses under their crotch.

All turned to look at Kant and the mage apprentice.

All looks solemn.

"That's not good news."

Kant couldn't help muttering to himself.

My brows were already furrowed, and I turned to look at the apprentice mage: "Are you sure about this news?"

"OK!"

The apprentice mage nodded: "Very sure!"

At the same time, they also gave their own guesses: "We went deep into the Naron desert. Although the temperature of the scorching sun above was still unbearable, there was a chill under the body, which was different from usual. The temperature of the scorching sun is neutral, just enough to allow us to barely march at noon without overheating and heat stroke.”

"Indeed." Kant nodded.

The knights next to him sensed, equally impressively, discovering this subtle difference.

Because of the curtain of death before, they didn't think about why they were still running under the scorching sun at noon. If it was at this time before, they would have set up camp long ago and temporarily hid in the tent to rest.

How could it be the same as now, still marching and not having much heat?

Definitely a problem!

The apprentices continued: "The problem is very serious! We carefully sensed the bottom of the sand layer and found that there are many ancient river channels under the sand layer, and there are also many underground rivers. It is these underground rivers that absorb those dark clouds. And the dense fog, and even absorb all the negative energy in it.”

After a pause, he continued: "Including those undead skeletons, the soft sand layer can form quicksand, allowing these undead to sink into the sand, and when the curtain of death reappears, they will re-open the quicksand and come to the world."

"Huh." Kant laughed softly, but his eyes were serious.

This question.

What a hassle!

Even to Kant, these undead are consciously avoiding the scorching sun.

Or rather, someone is behind it all!

At this moment ~IndoMTL.com~ Kant's retina popped up a dialog box, and a series of data were listed.

[Ding...Through your unremitting efforts, the temporary task has been completed. ]

[Temporary mission: "Last Wish" has been completed. ]

【Quest Reward: Spring Eye × 1 Seat】

【Mission introduction: You followed the guidance of that spirit body to the depths of the Naron Desert, but found that this place has long since fallen into a world of undead. The glory of the past is gone, time has wiped out everything, leaving only the evil that appeared because of obsession. ]

Temporary task completed.

However, then, the task reappeared on the retina.

Very special optional task.
