Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 205: The Changes of Drondheim

This was within Kant’s expectations.

The posthouse was the only way to pass through the Rocky Pass and the Oasis Lookout.

As long as there were people who wanted to test Kant and came to the depths of the desert disguised as trade caravans, they would pass by this flat sand plain. The posthouse that was being built in the middle of the sand plain could be said to be extremely conspicuous.

No one would give up the idea of testing the posthouse.

Moreover, in the area around the possible routes, 40 desert bandits would carry out continuous patrols.

When they discovered that there was an unfamiliar trade caravan visiting, these extremely agile and valiant desert bandits would go over and say that Kant had issued an order forbidding them from going deep into the desert. If they encountered any stubborn resistance.., they did not mind pulling out the scimitars at their waists or the short javelins on their backs to let the other party experience the cruelty of the desert.

Even if the guards of the trade caravan were extremely powerful and could withstand these desert bandits who were weaker in close combat, it would be difficult for them to withstand the harassment and attacks day and night.

The desert bandits were very good at this kind of alternate guerrilla tactics.

Therefore, they relied on this tactic to continuously harass the trade caravan, letting them sense the danger. After hearing the good advice, they went to the posthouse to replenish fresh water and food, then turned around and returned, not daring to go deep into the Nahrin Desert, they were afraid of encountering these vulture-like desert bandits and causing some unpleasant accidents.

In the early stages, the ones who came to probe were real merchants or some secret agents disguised as merchants.

Therefore, they were very professional in the trade caravan.

Similarly, they could sense that these desert bandits were not lying. Once they went too far away from the posthouse, or touched the bottom line of these desert bandits, then cruel harassment would eventually come.

Otherwise, they would choose to return to the Stone Pass.

Or they would risk their lives to kill their way to the Oasis Lookout.

There were only these two options.

However, no matter how they looked at the second option, it was extremely brutal.

After all, after a period of examination, they knew that the lord of the Nahrin Desert, Baron Kant, controlled a group of heavy cavalry troops. Although they were few in number, they were extremely elite, be able to fight back and forth with the Knights at the Stone Pass and not lacking in power.

Naturally, they were talking about the Sarrandian horseman who had once displayed their brilliance at the Stone Pass.

It was just a pity.

Out of the 20 Sarrandian Horseman, only 7 survived.

However, even these 7 survivors were successfully promoted to Mamlukes. They had the standard of a top-tier Knight. In terms of close combat and battle experience, they were even stronger than Grand Knights who had extraordinary strength!

The system had instilled tens of years of killing experience into them. It was equivalent to fighting through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

The effect was naturally extraordinary!

However, based on the current strength of these spies from the trade caravan, they were at most ordinary people.

They could deal with the desert bandits.

After all, the number of guards in each batch of trade caravan would not be too large. Compared to the size of the 40 desert bandits that could gather in large numbers with a whistle, they were at a complete disadvantage. Similarly, they did not dare to have any thoughts of resisting.

This was the early stage of testing, and it was not the time to use force to test.

Kant’s strict blockade was enough to block the gazes of many people.

However, this was only temporary.

Oasis Lookout’s table salt trade to the stone pass became more and more formal. The amount of silver coins traded increased, and the overall profit kept rising. It would also attract a large number of greedy eyes.

The probing would continue.

Once Kant’s strength was clear, the new round of probing would arrive.

Until they understood Kant’s bottom line.

Those noble and merchant were like devils from hell. They were not inferior in terms of fighting.

This was the work of greed.

Kant understood them.

Therefore, he made a choice against these greedy fellows.

The stone pass had already blocked many greedy gazes for him. Without the help of Baron Daron, even more spies and agents, as well as various bandit groups and violent organizations, would have appeared in the Nahrin Desert, moving towards the oasis lookout on a large scale. They would have had to engage in “Intimate”contact.

To tell the truth.

Kant was currently under very little pressure.

Desert Bandits alone could deal with the small trade caravan that had appeared in the Nahrin Desert after bypassing the Stone Pass.

The fierce bandits trained in the Sarrandian desert were still like fish in water in the Nahrin Desert. Moreover, this was Kant’s home ground. If they encountered an enemy that they could not deal with, with the desert terrain and the cruel environment, added to the elite troops that could be transferred to Drondheim, destroying the opponents easily wasn’t just a dream.

Now, in this vast and cruel Nahrin desert..

Kant’s forces were ranked first!

... ..

Another trek.

Finally, on the last day of the month, Kant returned to the oasis lookout.

The long-lost stone wall of Drondheim appeared in front of him. The four arrow towers and the tower-like council hall were as tall as before, carrying safety and stability. They were the cornerstone of Kant’s current forces.

This fortress allowed him to occupy this oasis.

And the Veruga marksman who first noticed Kant’s arrival had already passed on the news.

Fatis was leading a team.

The Swadian Knight, the Swadian Heavy Cavalry, Mamlukes and Sarrandian Horsemen stomped on the sand, causing the soft sand layer to fly, showing their imposing manner.

This was the grandest welcome.

“Welcome back, Lord Kant!”

Fatis had a solemn expression on his face.

The heavy cavalry behind him also looked at Kant with enthusiasm. “Welcome Back, my Lord!” They shouted in unison, their eyes burning with passion, making them offer the most reverent wish in their hearts.

“Alright.” Kant nodded.

Looking at these heavy cavalry, as well as the archers on the city walls and arrow towers, his expression was one of satisfaction.

These were his soldiers!

“Go in, “Kant ordered and entered Drondheim under the escort of many cavalry soldiers.

However, he also found that while he was away, although Fateth didn’t have the authority to level up the fortress to become a castle, he still built Drondheim according to his authority.

More houses appeared inside the city walls.

More pedestrians came and went on the streets, and the atmosphere was bustling.

Green smoke curled up from the salt workshop all day long.

Piles of salt were placed on the wooden boards, waiting to be filled. More than a dozen workers were holding shovels and loading the fine white salt into linen bags. As the salt sprinkled, it looked white and beautiful. It was quite tempting.

The sugar workshop next to them was also smoking.

However, there were fewer goods.

Due to the lack of raw materials, the Sugar Workshop was limited.

However, with the hard work of the honey and the output of the date palm tree, the thumb-sized date palm candies were finished. They were also packed in linen sacks, and then carefully transported to the storeroom, waiting for their own internal digestion.

The sugar production has not yet formed a grand scale yet, so the products are produced for their own consumption.
