Lord of the Oasis Chapter 627 - In the Blink of an Eye, a Week Had Passed

Chapter 627: In the Blink of an Eye, a Week Had Passed

Ti flew by like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, another week had passed.

It was still the sa in Drondheim City, operating in an orderly manner. And in the Nahrin Desert, 200 kiloters away, the Jackalans and Lizardn’s excavation of the Lost City had already reached its end.

Because Kant did not urge and pressure them excessively, the noble families of the South and East County of the Dukedom of Leo left the Leo Empire very calmly. In particular, they took away the civilians in their estate at Kant’s request. To Kant, the civilians of this world were just a burden and needed to be driven away. However, to the lords of the South and East County, these civilians were undoubtedly the most precious wealth.

As long as there were civilians, even if a lord was weak, there would be a ti for him to rise. In this era of low productivity, the number of people represented the strength of productivity, as well as the rise and fall of national power.

Thus, with Kant’s request, the nobles of the South and East Counties were very happy to leave with the civilians. Even the civilians of the noble estate who had died and lost their inheritance were also divided up by these noble families. For example, the three upper-class nobles of the South County who had been destroyed by Grand Duke Caron through the bloodline curse, the civilians in their estate were also divided up by the greedy upper-class noble families of the South County.

The entire southern half of the South County, as well as the entire East County, beca much more desolate after the noble families left with the civilians. It was almost an empty area. In the abandoned castles, there were broken marks everywhere. These were the marks left by the nobles who had plenty of ti to remove the expensive inlaid ornants. Because they had already decided to abandon the castles, their actions were naturally barbaric and rude.

Kant did not stay idle either. Construction teams were sent to the South and East Counties to carry out construction. Most of the reputation points that he had accumulated were spent on accelerating the construction speed, which made the South and East Counties develop very quickly. Refugees from the Continent of Caradia were constantly transported over by the system and recruited by Kant as his subjects.

For this world, the population was the most important wealth and resource. But for Kant, as long as he had enough territory and built a sufficient number of residential buildings, the system would send refugees from the Continent of Caradia so that he could recruit them. It was precisely because of this that he was able to develop the North County of Lion City and half of the South County in a year.

Therefore, Kant only needed to follow the way he developed the North County and half of the South County a year ago. As ti passed, he would naturally develop the two large estates that were already empty. After all, whether it was the South or the East Counties, just based on the degree of fertility of their land, they could completely surpass the North County by eighteen streets. If the North County was able to develop abnormally in Kant’s hands, then the South and East Counties were even more so.

As ti passed, the exploration and mapping teams that Kant had sent out continuously sent news to Drondheim, reporting the boundaries of Kant’s current estate that they had explored and mapped. As for Kant’s draft constitution, was constantly filled and supplented by professionals, becoming more and more perfect. In about half a month, the constitution would be completed and successfully promulgated, and the border of Kant’s estate, according to the current speed, would also be completed within a month.

This ant that, if nothing unexpected happened, Kant would complete the establishnt of the country within a month.

Kant had yet to use the construction pack of the “Absolute Territory”. He planned to use it in the capital after the construction of the country. In theory, he would build the capital in Drondheim. However, at this ti, Drondheim was still in a war crisis. Kant would only use the construction pack of the “Absolute Territory” after the war crisis had subsided.

Kant valued this “Absolute Territory” very much. From the feedback from the system, this item was also very important.

In the Council Hall of Drondheim, Kant was having a eting with the various generals and so high-ranking commanders who were gradually promoted, discussing war-related matters.

“Lord, according to your instructions, our army has already made preparations and can set off at any ti to launch a war against the Jackalans and Lizardn,” a high-ranking commander reported the situation of the army to Kant loudly.

Kant nodded. He did not know what was going on with the Jackalans and the Lizardn. They actually turned a blind eye to the scouts he sent out and allowed his scouts to investigate their progress clearly.

At this ti, the Lost City was almost completely excavated. Kant had no interest in waiting any longer and planned to take the initiative to launch an attack. He would start moving now. When Kant reached the Lost City, the Jackalans and Lizardn would have finished digging out the Lost City.

Just as Kant was about to announce the start of the army, a soldier ca to report that a death knight had co to visit.

“Only one death knight?” Kant asked.

“Yes, my Lord!” the soldier replied respectfully. Then, he stood quietly on the spot, waiting for Kant’s decision to expel, ignore, or summon.

“Everyone, feel free to discuss why the death knight suddenly ca to Drondheim,” Kant thought for a while and asked the senior commanders of the generals.

He didn’t have any idea, but everyone might be able to co up with sothing. Maybe that general or commander could guess the purpose of the death knight’s visit. And knowing the other party’s intention, he would be able to deal with it calmly. Of course, this was not the key. Kant’s actions had a deeper aning.

Bunduk was the first to notice the long journey of the Jackalans and Lizardn. Among Kant’s six generals, Manid, who was focused on business and expanding Kant’s wealth, and Jas did not have the experience of leading troops alone. This ti, Jas had beco a real general and he was leading a powerful mage army. Among the lords that Kant had summoned, only Bunduk was left.

Bunduk decided to perform well. Therefore, once Kant’s question ca out, Bunduk imdiately spoke up.

“My Lord, I think this death knight must be related to the Lost City. Their Lost City was just about to be excavated, and this death knight ca to visit. There might be a relationship between the two.”

Kant nodded. “Perhaps, but what is the relationship between the death knight’s visit and the Lost City?”
