Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 186: Aaron Village of Rhodok

[ Ding… system prompt ]

[ Congratulations on obtaining the Kingdom of Rhodoks’ Council Hall ]

The system dialog box appeared on his retina.

Kant was slightly stunned.

Who would’ve known that it was the Council Hall of the Kingdom of Rhodoks.

This was the Kingdom of brown bears, which was built in the southwest mountains of the continent of Caradia.

Kant watched as the council hall in his retina reassembled into a card. However, on the golden pattern of the card, a burly and majestic brown bear flag appeared. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl into a bitter smile.

This was expected.

But it was also unexpected.

The system gave the location of the village in the Senwaya Range, and Kant guessed that it was probably a mountain country.

He quickly estimated the result.

The Kingdom of Rhodoks, the Kingdom of Ravenston, the kingdom of dwarf humans, and the Kingdom of forest elves.

Of course.

The last two non-human forces were a little far away.

However, the Kingdom of Rhodoks and the Kingdom of Ravenston were probably the strongest according to Kant’s estimations.

After all, the Kingdom of Rhodoks was the original one.

In terms of kinship, they could even contact the kingdom of Swadia.

After all, these two countries were of the same species. It was their contrasting living environments that caused them to split, and the split didn’t even last long. It was during the term of the current king of Swadia, Haraus, the kingdom of Rhodoks was exploited and taxed due to the King’s obsession with tributes and negligence of protocol, that resulted in the appearance of the Kingdom of Rhodoks.

“But it’s good.”

Kant nodded, and his expression returned calm.

There were only two ways to level up in the Kingdom of Rhodoks.

Close combat.

Their defense was astonishing, and their close combat was second only to the Kingdom of Nords’Luo duoke.

Long-range.

The Rhodoks, who were said to be the strongest snipers, held a city-breaking crossbow in his hand, and could pierce through steel shields with a single arrow.

It was a military structure that was specially matched with the mountainous terrain.

Even the Swadian Knight, who was invincible on the plains, and the Mamluke, who was invincible in the desert, were not a match for the kingdom of Rhodoks in the mountainous region.

As long as the troops of the Kingdom of Rhodoks formed a dense formation, borrowing the advantage of the steep mountain terrain, and under the protection of the infantrymen armed with heavy shields and wearing heavy chain armor, allowing the snipers of the kingdom of rhodoks armed with siege crossbows to fire as much as they wanted, even the unrivalled guards of the Nord royal family would suffer in this complex mountain terrain.

They were the undisputed overlords of the mountain region.

Although they did not have cavalry.

However, the mountain region, which was undulating and densely covered with forests, did not need cavalry to defend.

Kant led 30 sarrandian horseman into the Senwaya range. These assault cavalry, who were originally invincible in the Sarrandian desert, suffered heavy losses because they left their warhorse, which they were best at, and used unfamiliar foot combat to face the enemy. 30 people were easily slaughtered by the ferocious demonic lion. In the end, there were only 7 people left.

If there were 30 corresponding level-4 infantrymen.

For example, the Swadian Infantry would definitely not have won so miserably.

This was because of the characteristics of the troop class.

Sarrandian horseman were good at charging in the desert. They were an extremely mobile cavalry. Coming to the mountain area was equivalent to giving up their best mobility and not charging on horseback. Instead, they became a weak force in close combat.

Now Kant had the Council Hall of the Kingdom of Rhodoks.

To be able to recruit this elite mountain battle force with the brown bear as its banner.

He would be completely unafraid of the complex terrain of the Senwaya Mountains.

For example, according to Kant’s understanding, the level 4 infantrymen of Rhodoks were veteran lance wielders. They wore heavy chain armor with excellent defense profile, carried a broad shield with stronger defensive effects, and held armor-piercing, one-handed military hammers that could be used to blunt and stab.They also held, with two hands, long-hilted broadswords that was more than two meters long, and their attack was extremely powerful.

And even among those of the same level.

Among the level 4 infantrymen.

The veteran spear-bearers of Rhodoks was the strongest!

The same level of Swadian Infantry, Wei Jiya Infantry, Nord warriors, and Salander infantry would all be chopped down by these level 4 infantrymen of the Kingdom of Rhodoks. The veteran spear-bearers of Rhodoks, with the long-hilted broadsword in their hands, would definitely make people scurry like rats, unable to stand against them.

Although they were spear-wielders, these infantry soldiers used extremely powerful long-hilted broadswords.

The kind that could even shatter light shields!

And it wasn’t just the infantry.

The marksmen were also astonishingly fierce.

Being a long-range troop class that also used crossbowmen, Swadian used a light crossbow, a Level 4 crossbow, and a level 5 sniper heavy crossbow.

In the long-range troop class of the Kingdom of Rhodoks, a Level 2 crossbow was a light crossbow, a level 3 skilled crossbow was a crossbow, a level 4 veteran crossbow was a heavy crossbow used by a level 5 troop class of Swadian sniper, and a level 5 Rhodoks sniper used the strongest mass-produced heavy crossbow in the entire continent of Caradia — the siege crossbow.

Just by looking at the literal meaning of the name, one could tell.

How powerful was the siege crossbow? It had already far surpassed the heavy crossbow; its power to destruct reaching a terrifying degree!

Within 50 meters, it could directly pierce through the steel shield with the strongest defense.

Within 150 meters, it could pierce through the chain armor, causing fatal injuries to the flesh within.

Within the limit of 300 meters, it could still pierce the armored-scale armor.

This explained why the heavy armored cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia was invincible in the plains, traversing the grasslands, snowfields, deserts, and coastal areas. As long as it was a flat area, they could crush the enemy.

However, it was in the Rhodoks Mountain area.

They could not do anything to these mountain people who did not even have cavalry.

However, in this world.

A foreign world with Kant as the main body.

The appearance of the Kingdom of Rhodoks allowed Kant’s forces to enter the Senwaya range. With the help of powerful infantrymen and powerful long-range archers, they were like a nail, firmly nailed into this mountain range.

Although he was more fond of the Kingdom of Ravenston.

But he didn’t reject the kingdom of Rhodoks.

After all, although the troop class of the Kingdom of Rhodoks was complete, and the four routes of close-combat infantrymen, close-combat cavalry, long-range archers, and long-range archers were all full, and the time needed to level up was also much longer. Moreover, in the Senwaya range, which had an extremely complex terrain, the only two types that could be relied on were close combat infantrymen and long-range archers.

After all, the Senwaya range was just a mountain range.

Unlike the Kingdom of Rhodoks, which had the majestic Misty Mountains and the slopes of the snowy plains that were suitable for cavalry to gallop on, there were still some differences between the two.

The Kingdom of Rhodoks that had been drawn this time was just right for the Senwaya range, which was all mountainous regions.

Not to mention the most important point.

The strongest archer system of the Ravenston Kingdom had already appeared within Kant’s forces.

The [ Ranger Camp ] was an example.

As long as the rank 4 troop class, the Ravenston Ranger, level up to the rank 5 troop class, the archery skills that had once terrified the barbarian tribes in the Misty Mountains would reappear within the Senwaya Range. This was also the reason why Kant did not regret losing the force of the Ravenston Kingdom.

Rhodoks soldiers and Rhodoks snipers had completely made up for the lack of close combat troops in the Ravensdon Kingdom, as well as the fact that it was difficult to deal damage to the enemy’s heavy-armored troops in a short period of time.

After all, although it was easy for the Ravensdon Kingdom to slaughter the barbarian tribes in the Misty Mountains…

In the face of the Feldspar kingdom, the kingdom of Sarion, and the Empire’s expeditionary army, they were completely at a disadvantage.

The reason was that the Raventon Kingdom’s troop class had sufficient output.

However, they lacked the ability to withstand attacks from the enemy.

Now, the combination of the best parts of the two could be considered as complementing each other. After all, although the Kingdom of Rhodoks’ troops had strong defense and sufficient power of long-range shooting, the efficiency of long-range continuous damage was extremely low. Compared to the title of Vaegir Marksman’s rapid-fire machine gun, Rhodoks’ sniping was very vivid.

Kant’s lips curled up slightly. “Construct the Council Hall.”

Data streams flashed in front of his eyes, and the Council Hall of the Kingdom of Rhodoks in his mind instantly turned into golden powder with his voice. Kant’s thoughts materialized in this world.

The stream of data spread, condensing into a data chain that swept through the center of the mountain peak in front of him.

A foundation made of stone appeared.

A floor made of neat stones, walls and roofs made of wood appeared.

The council hall was about 500 square meters.

It had two floors.

It was a villa that was still made of stone and wood.

At the same time, there was a small chimney extending out from the top, and green smoke was rising. It seemed that there were even people living in this council hall that had just materialized in this world.

A dialog box popped up on his retina.

[ ding… Your village has been established. Please name it. ]

Kant’s expression was calm.

He lowered his head slightly in thought and directly said to the system, “Name it Aaron.”

Aaron was the most famous city in the Kingdom of Rhodoks. The entire continent of Caradia was known as the most inland city with the most complicated environment. It was the most troublesome city to conquer. Even after the capital fell, he could use the complex mountain terrain near Aaron to defend the local area and plan a comeback.

Kant named this village Aaron and planned to use it as a strategic town.

[ ding… Village name: Aaron ]

The village was officially named.

The dialog box on the retina refreshed.

The village interface of “Aaron”also appeared on the retina.

——

[ Aaron ]

[ Lord: Kant ]

[ Type: Rhodoks village ]

[ Topulation: 50]

[ Troops: 10]

[ Tonstructions available: Council Hall ]

[ Constructions available: house, city wall, mill, Watchtower, well ]

[ Current forces: Rhodoks (10)]

[ Recruitable: Rhodoks (Council Hall)]

[ Comment: this unremarkable village is called “Aaron”. It is located at the edge of the mountain range. There is no need to describe it too much. It is enough to know that its future is concerning. ]

——

Kant scanned the village interface.

He could not help but smile bitterly. It was indeed as the system’s introduction had said, the future was concerning.

The entire village was too simple and crude.

It was just like back in the Oasis Lookout, when ‘Drondheim’had just been established.

But now was not the past.

Back then, Kant had to fight to the death in exchange for the prosperity of the current ‘Drondheim’.

Now, Kant wouldn’t need to fight with all his might again for Aaron. He only needed to mobilize part of the garrison of the Oasis Lookout, the fort of Drondheim, and quickly build up the defense system.

At the same time, more than 100,000 denar also added to his confidence to build up Aaron!

Kant was no longer the same as before!
