Chapter 313: Chapter 313. Kant’s War Trophies

The noble families of the Dukedom of Leo were greedily spying on Kant.

And wasn’t Kant scheming against them?

The Nahrin Desert was really barren. Even with the system’s help, Kant had to use military force to ensure his own strength and control of the area.

But even so, the development foundation of Nahrin Desert was here.

Even the development of the Senwaya Range was not very high.

In terms of environment, the barren desert and the complicated mountain land could never be compared to the fertile plains. This was the eternal truth, the advantages and disadvantages brought by the environment.

Now, Kant had taken the first step to conquer the Dukedom of Leo.

The North County was not rich.

It could be said that it was the poorest county in the Dukedom of Leo.

But it was still much better than the Nahrin Desert. Moreover, Kant’s goal was to use the North County as a springboard to extend his power to the South County or East County.

As long as he obtained more troops, he could rule all of the country.

Strength was the truth.

Moreover, Kant had the bloodline of the Dukedom of Leo. In fact, he was the second-in-line heir of the Grand Duke of Leo, Cameron!

It was just that due to the political factors of his ancestors, he was excluded.

If he wanted to fight for the Grand Duke’s title.

Kant was completely qualified to do so!

With Firentis leading the team, 10 Lion Knights, 100 Swadian Knights, and 500 level-4 Swadian Footmen, they could completely take root in the Stone Pass. While ensuring their own safety, they could also firmly control the Stone Pass in their hands, they were not afraid of the backlogs of other forces.

After all, they were extraordinary knights who could run amok in the Dukedom of Leo and receive the courtesy of many noble families. Even if they met the royal family, they could still maintain their poise and receive the grand etiquette in front of Grand Duke Cameron.

This was the privilege of the strong.

And the prosperity of a country had a measurement of strength. It was also the number of these extraordinary knights!

Not to mention the Stone Pass.

Even in the entire North County, there were only 10 extraordinary knights recorded in the official records.

Now, there were 10 of them here, and they were all united. They were all grand knights who had unified extraordinary power. How could they not capable of intimidating this place and control Stone Pass?

Of course they could!

This was Kant’s confidence!

Firentis led the team and left.

The central posthouse returned to its usual silence.

Sarrandian Horsemen were watching over the 724 captives. They were all gathered at the corner of the posthouse. They were squatting on the sand, they were ashen-faced. The panic and despair in their eyes could no longer be concealed.

They had all seen that Baron Dylan had been taken away by those elite knights.

As for their actual commander…

The two grand knights from the East County were left here alone, including the 30 vassal knights of Baron Dylan. None of them returned with the returning troops. They were all locked up in the posthouse.

If they could, they would rather leave this desert far away and never dare to set foot in it again.

But this was their wishful dream.

Kant would not let all of them leave. After all, these were his captives. They could mine a large amount of table salt for him in the salt mine, ensuring that the table salt trade would be smooth again.

Before the Sky Veil of Death arrived, Kant planned to accumulate a batch of coarse salt.

This was the confidence of the table salt trade in the future.

Only the continuous table salt trade could bring about a golden eagle that could be exchanged for denar. It could allow Kant to develop faster and expand his power. This was a crucial matter.

Once the table salt trade was interrupted, Kant would also fall into a situation where hid capital chain would collapse.

After all, the current situation was very disadvantageous to him.

Even if Kant had the ability to overthrow the Dukedom of Leo, the subsequent governing work would be absolutely difficult. It could even be said that it could not be carried out. After all, those nobles would definitely not allow Kant to suddenly enter their traditional sphere of influence.

Even if he destroyed a noble force, Kant would not be able to fill the gap of force.

He did not have enough troops.

Similarly, he did not have enough allies.

If any of the noble families in a county could support Kant, then he could directly swallow the Dukedom of Leo. At the very most, he could split the gaps of force and gift it to these allies.

This was also the benefit of the alliance between the noble families.

It was just a diplomatic mean.

Kant did not completely enter the Dukedom of Leo because of this reason.

If he really attacked the Dukedom of Leo and defeated a large number of enemies, he would only leave a large area of territories and give it to others for free. Kant naturally would not do such a thing.

If he had the ability, he would rather devour the world!

If he did not have the ability now, he would devour the world bit by bit!

These were all ways of strategizing.

After arranging the central posthouse, Kant needed to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible.

Baron Dylan sealed the Stone Pass, causing the trade caravan to be unable to enter. When they returned to the Stone Pass, the trading route would once again open up once Firentis took control of the area. At that time, the trade caravan would definitely continue to rush over.

At that time, the trade of table salt would probably be even larger.

Kant had already displayed his muscles.

He could be considered the overlord of this place. Even Baron Dylan was defeated, and the Stone Pass was controlled by his forces. It would be really difficult for the other noble families to enter the Nahrin Desert.

First, they had to conquer the Stone Pass.

Then, they had to pass through the desert to attack the central posthouse.

Finally, they had to face the Oasis Lookout. If they still had a bit of enthusiasm and morale when they faced the massive defensive walls of “Drondheim” Castle, it could be certain that they would choose to withdraw their troops at that time instead of forcing themselves to attack the city!

Back then, even the high level Jackalan of the Kingdom of Grey Mane who were so invincible at infantry battle sequence, when they attacked the fortress-level Drondheim, the five-meter-tall city wall and two-meter-tall attic were enough to wipe out their entire army, let alone the ordinary human troop.

Even though it was also because of those high-level Jackalan who were at the end of their rope.

However, Kant was so weak that he could only protect himself at that time. How could he have the current powerful army back then?

Now, he could be called the overlord!

“Rolf.”

Kant made the arrangements and instructed him, “Clean up the battlefield. From next week, the table salt trade will be opened again. Continue to patrol and maintain order. Guard this place well.”

“Understood.”, Rolf immediately nodded solemnly.

“Then I’ll return.”

Kant frowned.

The undead in the depths of the desert were still threatening him. Although five months was not short, it was definitely not long!

After pondering for a moment, he turned his head to look at the mages who were talking to each other behind him.

Eleven mage apprentices and seven mages.

These mages from the Enfath Empire seemed to be having a good time talking about the sun disk. They were mumbling to each other. Their voices were not loud, but they were in a state of discussion like academics.

“Ahem.”

Kant coughed lightly.

The 18 mages immediately reacted and came to Kant’s side to bow. “Sorry, my Lord.”

“It’s fine.”

Kant shook his head and asked, “From your conversation, it seems like you’re discussing the sun disk.”

“Yes, my Lord. Such a magical object like the sun disk is indeed the focus of our discussion. In view of the current predicament, we also agree that the sun disk that contains positive energy is indeed the best way for us to deal with it.”

The leader of the mages, who was also the mage apprentice who suggested Kant to study the sun disk.

After discussion and the initial research, they had come to some conclusions.

However, they still said with some regret, “If we can get more information about the sun disk, we might be able to analyze more things. Perhaps we can get more detailed results from the analysis of the so-called Sun God Sect, which has disappeared in history.”

“This…”, Kant frowned. “I remember that there were sun disks in the ruins of the peak of the mountain and the ruins of the temple at the bottom of the mountain. Didn’t you guys study them in Aaron?”

“Uh, that’s true.”

The mages looked at each other.

They looked at each other and were a little speechless. “We only helped to defend in Aaron and dealt with some demonized creatures. We didn’t observe those mysterious objects that haven’t been appraised in detail…”

“Haven’t been appraised?”, Kant frowned.

“It’s those strange objects that we don’t know their uses yet.”

The mage answered, “For example, those strange objects in the castle, including the sun disk, have been appraised. When we touched them, we all understood the function of this thing in our hearts.”

“I understand.”, Kant nodded. It should be the function of the system.

The mage continued to explain, “However, we have studied the sun disk before, so we have the ability to recognize similar disks. We can easily identify them and figure out the power they contain. If we obtain more sun disks, we might really be able to develop special spells that gather positive energy. With the help of these strange objects that contain positive energy, we can fight against the undead race’s Sky Veil of Death, which has extremely heavy negative energy.”

“That’s it. Let’s go to Aaron!”

Kant made his decision.

Rolf frowned and suggested, “Lord Kant, what about these captives?”

“Let the cavalries bring them back!”

Kant waved his hand and ordered in a deep voice, “Let all the captives look to the south.”

“Yes.”, Rolf replied. This order was very strange, but he still chose to follow it.

He returned very quickly.

Rolf reported, “Everything has been arranged.”

“Yes.”

Kant nodded, but a dialog box appeared in his eyes.

As he confirmed, the data flow spread. The 500 Swadian Footmen who were waiting in line in the north were instantly surrounded by the data flow. After a few seconds, they suddenly stretched, as if there was a huge change.

After the data flow disappeared, the ones who appeared in the north were not those light footmen.

Instead, it was 500 cavalries who were equipped with horses and chain armor.

Swadian Heavy Cavalries!

This was the upgrade of the troop class, from level up from level 3 light footmen to level up to level 4 heavy cavalry. In the entire Continent of Caradia, the level 4 heavy cavalry had the best defense, the best equipment, and the strongest charging force!

And it was a total of 500 of them!
