Lord of the Oasis

The market at Stone Pass is located next to the ghetto.

Because Beijun's business is not developed, the market is not large, and there are actually very few things sold. The most important stalls are only farming tools necessary for farming, or a blacksmith shop that repairs weapons for soldiers.

Near the Sunwaya Mountains, the attrition of weapons and armor is always high to defend against demonic creatures or gnolls.

Because of the system, Kant naturally has little demand for weapons.

But with the idea of ​​trying to discover talents, I also want to see the blacksmith craftsmanship of Stone Pass.

Kant couldn't help rolling his eyes when Kant looked at those smiling faces, who clearly regarded him as a noble sheep, and when he took out the sword and battle axe made of inferior iron just like a gift. , and when he saw the bloated and useless thickened iron-inlaid leather armor, he sighed directly.

"enough."

Kant waved his hand and rode on the warhorse to lightly knock the stirrups: "Ready to go."

"Understood." Manid and the others replied.

The weapons and armors made by these blacksmiths, for Kant, after getting used to the high-quality products produced by the system, they can only be regarded as garbage, and they can't get into his eyes at all, and now they will not spend silver coins to purchase them.

It is estimated that there are no blacksmiths with really good craftsmanship in such a poor place as Stone Pass.

Although it is a world of swords and magic.

But excellent handicraftsmen, blacksmiths, and armor-makers are all precious strategic resources. As long as their craftsmanship is decent, in those big noble castles or economically prosperous towns, they are better than poor places like Stone Pass. is much better.

"Pleasant to work with."

Manid ended his bargaining with the stall owner, took out 3 big silver coins, bundled these inferior iron tools and put them in a sack, and the desert robbers worked together to put everything on the horse.

Although 50 tools are heavy, 10 horses are fairly easy to share.

Of course, the drinking water and food necessary for crossing the Nalen Desert have been prepared for each person's 5-day share.

"Lord Kant, everything is ready."

Manid rode his warhorse to Kant's side to report.

"Okay, let's go." Kant nodded, kicked the stirrup lightly, and let the horse under his crotch step forward.

The entire team headed towards the city gate on the north side.

Due to the proximity of the Naluun Desert to the north, and occasional gnoll tribes attacking the city gate, the north side of the Stone Pass is basically a slum area, dirty and messy, with overflowing sewage, and the temperature is quite unpleasant.

Kant frowned and glanced at the skinny poor people who hurriedly avoided, and also had a general evaluation of the life in the sentry oasis.

The village "Drehem" created by myself in the Sentinel Oasis.

Although it is small in scale, it can be said to be complete with all the internal organs. Although everything is in its infancy, it is undoubtedly like a utopian paradise for ordinary people, enjoying an imagined comfortable life.

Despite the chaos, there is at least hope.

Compared with the poor who live here and have no hope of life in their eyes, they are already much stronger.

"The task is arduous."

As he rode his horse forward, Kant sighed in his heart.

The Sentinel Oasis is the foundation of its own. If you don’t want to become like this, you can only work hard to forge ahead.

He wants to be successful.

At the city gate on the north side, a heavy city gate made of a whole log is opened.

Those conscripted peasants with pale faces and loose leather armor, under the supervision of a few captains wearing iron armor, tried their best to pull the winch to open the city gate, and sent off Kant and the others respectfully and grandly. .

Do they know that this is the distinguished guest of Baron Dylan.

And just because of the identity of Baron Kant, it is also the reason why these civilian soldiers are worth kneeling and licking.

"let's go."

Kant doesn't care about these compliments.

The warhorse under the crotch seemed to have a good heart. After leaving the city gate of the stone pass, the figure of Xiong Jun stretched out, stepping on the canyon road full of sand with his four hooves, and galloping forward quickly.

Manid and 15 cavalrymen behind him also quickly followed.

Leaving the canyon safe and sound.

The rolling sea of ​​sand in the Naron Desert then appeared in front of me, coming from the north beyond measure.

But for Kant and the others, it was like a duck in water.

After all, the Stone Pass is not their sphere of influence, and it feels uncomfortable to be under the fence, especially the interests of the nobles, so they hurriedly left after confirming their cooperation.

Although it is still no man's land, the Naron Desert is already equivalent to Kant's territory.

Riders and sand thieves from the Sarand desert are more familiar with this desolate environment.

The only thing that was awkward was probably Manid.

He was riding on the warhorse, and the skin between his legs felt tingling. He could only sigh and endure it. He planned to return to the sentry oasis and hone his riding skills well. In the future, he must not be so shameful.

In order to solve his pain, Manid opened his mouth to divert his attention: "Lord Kant."

"What's the matter." Kant turned back.

"The cooperation between this Baron Dylan and us is not too long-term in my opinion." Manid said.

"That's right." Kant nodded, his expression unsurprising: "No one is willing to give up the priceless salt mine, even if he has made a huge profit, he still wants to swallow the salt mine completely in his stomach to feel at ease. "

For Baron Dylan, who was unwilling to be in the Stone Pass, Kant had already figured out his psychology.

And greed is one of the reasons for the success of cooperation.

"But our development has to be accelerated, my lord." Seeing that Kant clearly had a plan, Manid reminded: "In my opinion, this is a dangerous game."

Kant chuckled, with a bit of sarcasm on his immature face: "Yes, it's a dangerous game."

Baron Dylan is building strength through cooperation.

As long as the power is accumulated and formed, this cooperation will be torn up, and the salt trade will be wiped out.

At that time, the greedy Baron Dylan, the first to operate is definitely Kant in the sentry oasis. With absolute advantage, he will completely control the salt mine occupied by Kant in his own hands, and let his caravan completely monopolize the salt trade. .

It doesn't even need to be predicted, Kant is sure that this will definitely happen.

Greed never ends.

But when Baron Dylan thought that his development was fast, he could never imagine it.

The real development is fast, but Kant!

Kant, who has a golden finger, is standing on the wind and can fly to the sky at any time. How can he develop slower than Baron Dylan?

Wait for Baron Dylan to resist the pressure of the Lion Principality for Kant.

Suddenly looking back.

Just in the desert of Naron, Kant's sentry oasis has swelled to a power that even he needs to handle with caution, and even when he is faintly at a disadvantage, who will win and who will lose will be known at a glance.

Kant led the team toward the depths of the desert.

The traces of when they came are still vaguely visible, and as long as the direction is right, they will first arrive at the inn at night.

It's a place to rest.

It's just that the Sarandian rider who led the team ahead looked slightly tense, tightened the reins, slowed down the speed of Sarande's horse under his crotch, and said solemnly: "Something's wrong, Lord Kant, there is a situation ahead."

Kant narrowed his eyes.

He also saw the bottom of the dune in front of him, there were more than a dozen cavalry, moving quickly towards this side.
