Global Lord: Start As A Desert Lord

After the excited Andaier left, Richard looked at Karoo.

"Where did the search and rescue team get this information?"

After organizing his language, Karu said softly.

"My lord, this information was given by them to a team of Luanweihua Merchant Guild who stayed in that area to search."

"Apart from the information about An Dai'er's father, is there anything else to gain?"

"I also found some residents trapped in the oasis, but the search and rescue team just came back and was still eating, so I didn't have time to ask for too much information."

Richard nodded, he was already back anyway, so he was not in a hurry.

"How about the casualties of the other teams?"

"Seven injured, four dead..."

"The dead are buried in the land of glory, and the wounded are rewarded with some desert crown honey."

"Yes, my lord."

After making simple arrangements, Richard unloaded all the prey that was almost filling the system space and let the residents handle it.

He returned to the lord's mansion and ate a sumptuous dinner in comfort.

After drinking and eating, people summoned the search and rescue team.

There were 60 people when they went out, 6 were killed the day before yesterday, and now 4 were sacrificed, and out of the 10 mummies sent out, only 5 remained.

The vast desert is indeed perilous.

But in exchange for an A-level hero, this wave is not a loss.

Mercy does not command soldiers, as a lord, he must not be indecisive.

He will not hesitate to sacrifice.

This is the background of the world where all races are fighting for hegemony. It is peaceful now, but it is just not yet the time for war to break out.

"Good night, my lord."

After entering the house, all the residents saluted immediately, and no one dared to pass.

The one in front of him is the only master of this land, who can decide their fate with a single word.

After Richard got up, he looked around appreciatively.

He smiled lightly, "There is no need to be too polite, every resident who has contributed to Twilight City is worthy of respect."

"You have worked hard these days."

Those two simple sentences immediately warmed the hearts of the crowd.

Your lord, you have not forgotten them.

"Which one of you can tell me, what have you encountered these days?"

With his encouragement, a young man stood up and said tentatively.

"My lord, can I, can I?"

His tone trembled a little, and he clenched his hands into fists.

When the crowd turned their eyes, he felt that his legs were a little weak.

Richard gave him an appreciative look.

"Of course, there is no need to be nervous. You have completed the task and are heroes of Twilight City, and you will be rewarded by me."

Huh~

The young man immediately let go of his heart, and his tone was a little high-pitched.

"Master Richard, these few days we..."

Then he explained what happened to the search and rescue team in the past few days.

Although in his view it was very dangerous and encountered many powerful field troops, in Richard's view, it was just what happened to Common, and there was no information he wanted.

After repeated inquiries, he encouraged the other party and changed to the next searcher team.

Next, each team sent a representative to describe what happened to their team these days.

Richard couldn't help being a little disappointed when he heard the end, because the explorer team was not strong enough, even if they found an anomaly, they didn't dare to approach.

Not to mention buildings like temples or one-way portals, there are not many resource points.

"Are you sure you haven't encountered a temple-like building these days?"

"No." Everyone shook their heads in unison.

"Have you found any territory similar to Twilight City?"

"No." Everyone shook their heads again.

This is strange.

Richard thought for a long time and didn't know what went wrong.

Are there so few lord players in the desert camp? Why is there no player territory around Twilight?

Or is it that the desert of death is too big and spread out, and these guys are afraid of death, even if they see it from a distance, they dare not approach it?

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't come to a reason, so I didn't get too entangled, and changed the question.

"Did you find any other people who were blown away by the dust storm?"

"have!"

Finally there was a response that got Richard interested.

"Where are they? Why don't you bring them back?"

"this......"

The middle-aged man who spoke was a little embarrassed.

"They are in an oasis, and they don't want to go back to Twilight City with us... they want to wait for people from the Luanweihua Chamber of Commerce to take them away."

Richard narrowed his eyes slightly.

"How many people are there?"

"More than 300 people..."

"Is there a map?"

"Look here."

The middle-aged man stepped forward, carefully spread out a rough map on the table, and pointed to one of the circled points.

"That's it, they have plenty of water and food, and they don't want to leave..."

A little embarrassed after speaking, they deliberately went to find each other, but they didn't expect to find those people and they were unwilling to come back with them.

However, the opponent's strategy of waiting for the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce to come to rescue is not wrong.

After all, they originally planned to follow the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild across the Desert of Death.

It is self-evident who is more reliable than a territory that has never been heard of.

"Aren't those your companions? Why didn't you come back with you?"

"My lord, most of the people who followed the Luanweihua Chamber of Commerce were strangers..."

Richard understood, and then felt a little playful.

"It's not surprising that an oasis has water, but what kind of oasis can have enough food to feed and drink hundreds of people?

And you've been hit by a sandstorm for almost two weeks, right? Can it last so long with leftover food alone? "

The middle-aged man was taken aback by this question, and then shook his head in embarrassment.

"I don't know, they didn't let us in."

He hesitated to speak but stopped, and finally struggled to speak.

"My lord, they also asked us to bring other people back, saying that there is no shortage of food, there is no need to stay in Twilight City, it is safer..."

oh?

This made Richard more interested.

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

These hundreds of people are in a small desert oasis, and it's fine if they just stay and refuse to leave.

He also said that he had enough food, and even wanted to poach his wall.

Is this a little too abnormal?

"Okay, I know about this matter, I will go there in a few days, and you will lead me the way."

"Yes, my lord!"

After Richard finished speaking and encouraged the residents, he let them go down to rest.

Originally, he wanted to give some rewards, but he was embarrassed to find that in addition to food, there were only some wild animal furs in the warehouse.

Nothing seemed to come out of it.

After the crowd left, Richard looked at Karoo who followed the crowd and kept silent.

"Karu, what kind of rewards do you usually use to reward your subordinates?"

Carew noticed Richard's embarrassment immediately.

opened the mouth.

"My lord, the general rewards can be gold coins, furs of wild beasts, or some common medicinal materials and supplies."

"Desert Crown Honey is Precious' reward item..."

"Those who have made great achievements can be rewarded with glory, such as the title of Dusk City, or some kind of honorary title, or even a certain piece of land..."

After listening to Richard, he felt suddenly enlightened.

That's right, rewards can not only be rewarded in kind, but also rewards of spirit and glory.

When the level is low, material rewards may be needed. In the future, when the level of subordinates is higher, they will also be rewarded with materials, which is undoubtedly a bit inferior.

Those who make great achievements in the future can be awarded some honorable baron, honorable earl.

You don't need to spend money, and you don't give real power. It's more face-saving to say it...

Simply serve multiple purposes.
