Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 163: The Latest Data Interface

The system displayed the interface of the troop class on the retina.

The soldiers in Drondheim had just been through a battle and won. Therefore, the experience points they received was definitely enough to level up, and it was even possible for them to level up consecutively.

Except for 10 Swadian militiamen who were responsible for guarding the posthouse, they did not receive experience points.

The rest of the troop class that had not yet reached the top level could all level up.

“Level up.”

Kant communicated with mind communication system directly and gave the order.

There was no need to be long-winded.

Since all the troop class’s experience was sufficient, Kant would not be petty spending his denars!

[ Ding… system prompt ]

[ All troop class’s level up, a total of 36,510 denars. ]

[ Yes/No? ]

The system immediately popped up a dialog box.

“Choose to pay.”

Kant had a lot of savings at the moment, obviously he did not hesitate.

Along with the crisp sound of metal coins colliding, the number of denars in his mind immediately decreased.

The data flow spread.

Outside the council hall, many troops that were still waiting for orders and cleaning up the battlefield were instantly covered by this data flow. In just a short moment, these troops that were scattered along with the data flow had undergone an earth-shaking change.

Their bodies became sturdy, and their weapons and equipment were completely new.

It was an earth-shattering change!

The Swadian militia received the most experience points after they desperately defending against the enemies and led to severe casualties. The remaining 188 militiamen skipped the level 3 troop class light footman, and were directly promoted to a Level 4 Swadian heavy cavalry.

This was as expected.

It was these level 2 militiamen who had risked their lives to stabilize the defense line when they were defending against the Jackalan’s attack on the city walls and city gates.

If they had not fought to the death…

Once those crazy high-level Jackalan charged in, there would be unimaginable consequences.

At the same time, the 50 Swadian footmen stationed behind the city gates had received the strongest attack from the high-level Jackalan, they had paid the price of 37 deaths. The remaining 13 footmen had all been upgraded to a level up Swadian sergeants.

They had become the most well-equipped and luxurious level up 5 footmen in the entire kingdom of Swadia, or in other words, the continent of Caradia!

It was not just the footmen.

The archers who had stubbornly resisted on the city walls and arrow towers had also changed greatly.

All 63 of the Vaegirs archers had been upgraded to 63 marksmen who held the Vaegirs battle bow. They wore mail armor and wore a pot helmet on their heads. Their faces were resolute, and they had the power of level 5 archers. They were no weaker than the Raventern rangers who were also level up 5 archers.

As for the Swadian crossbowmen who had suffered heavy losses on the city walls, the remaining 10 of them had all been upgraded to Swadian snipers.

They were all level 5 archers.

Although they held heavy crossbows in their hands, their power was weaker than the snipers of the Kingdom of Rhodoks.

However, their rich experience over a long period of time had allowed them to have their own style of fighting among the level up 5 archers. At the very least, in terms of long-range sniping experience and skills, these Swadian snipers were no weaker than those Rhodok sharpshooters.

This was a qualitative change in the army.

It also included the last sweep, the cavalry which completely destroyed the enemy’s morale.

87 Swadian heavy cavalries had used up tens of thousands of denars just to level up, but the result was 87 terrifying Swadian knight. They wore double layers of heavy chain mail, and even their strongest warhorse wore heavy chain mail from the top to bottom. Their lower chest and abdomen were covered by the chain armor until their calves. They were the strongest heavy cavalry that had never met any enemy on the plains.

Including the previous 10 Swadian knight, Kant now had 97 heavy armored tanks that were made of steel in the age of cold weapons!

It meant that they were invincible in this age of cold weapon!

The only one that could be compared to these knights was the Mamluke of Sarrand Sultanate. They were the king of steel in the desert. They were better at using two-handed iron staffs to fight in close combat.

The 40 original Sarrandian horsemen were all upgraded to Mamlukes.

Kant’s absolute trump card.

The 97 Swadian knights were invincible in a frontal charge.

The 45 Mamlukes charged into the enemy’s formation and fought efficiently.

The 120 Sarrandian horseman could also be considered heavy cavalry, they were all wearing Sarrandian chain armor and holding a military spear. The only drawback was that the Sarrandian horseman didn’t have any armor, and it was only covered with linen.

This was the consecutive level up of 40 elite desert bandits and 70 desert bandits.

In the current battle sequence.

The complete light cavalry unit had temporarily disappeared, but they didn’t need to wait too long. The desert bandit camp now had 40 desert bandits per week. As long as Kant had enough denar, they could quickly reappear in this vast desert.

The current Drondheim fortress was no longer the same as before.

No force could be like Kant.

Even if they had gone through a brutal battle, as long as they could forcefully hold on and obtain victory, it would be a rebirth for his stronghold. They wouldn’t just blindly exhaust their strength and cause casualties form both other.

Kant had cheat.

In the true sense, Kant could use battle to nourish the battle!

Just like after this battle.

The ‘Drondheim’ fortress had entered a new stage of development. According to Kant’s speculation, by the end of this month, he could even complete the construction of all the buildings and completely upgrade the fortress to a castle!

He already had a pass to level up.

Among the special gift pack that he had obtained from the lottery, the [ level up (Castle)] card was still floating quietly in his mind. As long as he completed the construction of all the buildings, this originally simple fortress would immediately be upgraded to a castle. It would become a regional building that could truly defend a strategic location!

Kant narrowed his eyes slightly.

The dialog box on his retina quickly refreshed.

He was excited. He calmed his emotions and ordered the system in a deep voice, “Open the data interface.”

[ Ding… the data interface is opening… ]

The system immediately replied.

On Kant’s retina, a new data interface appeared.

[ Comment: In this barren desert oasis, the ‘Drondheim’ fortress stands tall. It seems to be in good condition. The clear spring water flowed into the lake, and then through the canal, it nourished hundreds of arcs of land. The people living in the fortress were busy with smiles on their faces. Their movements were light and skilled. They could find jobs here and make a living from it. The city wall was strengthened by the attic, and the arrow towers were neat and perfect. The city defense was well-arranged, and elite soldiers were stationed on top of it to guard it. This was a vibrant fortress, and it had a great future. But what was worth noting was that there were very few women in the fortress]

[ Remark: not included in the statistics. ]

……..

Looking at the data on the system interface.

Kant smiled, and his eyes were filled with self-satisfaction.

In the final comment of the system, there were no sarcastic words. Instead, it fully affirmed the development of the fortress. This represented the success of Kant’s military-oriented development path.

The military development would lead to the continuous development of the estate.

With sufficient self-protection ability, they could use this power to safely develop agriculture or the economy.

“Dang dang dang.”

There was a light knock on the door. Swadian sergeant in double-layered chain armor stood outside.

With only 13 people left, they did not go to the defense of the city wall. Instead, they stayed alone in the council hall as Kant’s personal guards, they also served as daily messengers. “My Lord, dinner has been prepared in the kitchen downstairs. I wonder if you have time to participate in the celebration banquet?”

“Of course I have time,”, Kant replied.

He turned his head to look out of the window. The sunlight was no longer fierce, and the shadows of dusk could already be seen in the horizon.

He stood up, opened the door, and walked down the stairs.

Even the hall was filled with the fragrance of food. After he walked out, the streets were filled with tables full of various of food. It seemed like they not concerned about the cost, even the black pepper and white salt that was dipped in food were mixed in small plates. Anyone could eat these precious luxury condiments.

The peasant women were busy, and the new civilians were also helping.

Manid was arranging the command.

At the top of the attic not far away from the city wall, Firentis and James were standing side by side, leading a team of Vaegirs marksmen on patrol. They were sizing up the situation outside, looking extremely cautious.

“This is good, isn’t it?”, Kant had a smile on his face.

This was his estate.
