Lord of the Oasis - Chapter 322
Chapter 322: The final best plan
The sun disk was clearly visible.
However, Kant was slightly stunned. He glanced at the three special effects. Each of them could be considered powerful, but they could only affect an area of 5,000 square meters, which was only equivalent to the size of a mansion.
Compared to the Oasis Lookout, which occupied an area of one hectare, the area affected by the sun disk was too small.
Even if it was placed in the middle of the castle, it could only protect one-third of the area.
The area was too small!
This 5,000 square meter is not enough to protect the walls of Drondheim Castle!
Thinking about the Sky Veil of Death, which covered the sky, the area of protection is really too small. When the black fog and dark clouds of the Sky Veil of Death swept over, they have to give up part of the defensive fortifications to protect the area successfully!
As for the agriculture and animal husbandry areas in the outside world, they could not protect them at all.
We have to give up!
Kant would not be willing to do that!
The current Drondheim castle was dependent on the Oasis Lookout for protection.
Without the Oasis Lookout, this seemingly strong castle is merely a landmark that could be defended. Even if it could temporarily hold off the attacks of the Sky Veil of Death’s undead, Kant would still give the order to retreat.
Oasis Lookout, which could no longer protect the castle, does not have much value in the Nahrin desert.
Moreover, by then, the salt mines would have already been conquered.
Without the Denar income from the table salt trade, even if this was Kant’s first base, the best plan would be to retreat to the city in the Senwaya Range and defend it.
This is Kant’s town, “Aaron”!
The ancient passage had waterways and land routes that lead directly to the hinterland of the Dukedom of Leo. It is extremely prosperous and provides access to several countries. It could be said to be the river of human trade, the Resniston River!
Even if the Sky Veil of Death spreads to this town, there will still be a way out.
At most, they could abandon the town.
They could all go to the temple ruins at the bottom of the mountain.
Even if the temple ruins could not be defended, they could still retreat along the ancient passage to the underground city of the Karst Cave.
The sun disc covers an area of 5,000 square meters, it was definitely enough to directly seal off the ancient passage. Moreover, Kant could also use the waterway to travel across the Risniston River and contact the spies he had set up.
Kant still does not see the eastern county as a threat.
His extraordinary ability was enough to dominate.
Moreover, if the Sky Veil of Death appeared in the Senwaya Range at that time, it would mean that the Stone Pass also produced this kind of undead strategic spell, which even the Dukedom of Leo had to pay attention to. The East County, Countess Agatha, and Kant’s aunt also had to help out.
When the time comes, Kant would have a better chance to develop in the East County.
After all, the undead and the humans are mortal enemies.
Those skeletons and zombies are the enemies of all living beings.
There was no peace talks.
If the Dukedom of Leo could not resist the attacks, the entire North County would surrender to the undead. The rich South county and East County would then become the front-line fighters against the undead.
Even the Silver Platter Kingdom and the country that believed in the holy light would have to send troops to support them.
After the Dukedom of Leo crosses the river, they would arrive at the Silver Platter Kingdom!
These were all part of Kant’s worst-case scenario.
Of course, all of these were based on the premise that Kant could not resist the undead, could not resist the Sky Veil of Death, and thus gave up on his own forces. He would retreat completely in order to develop further!
The price was too high.
Kant had also unintentionally blocked even more threats for the Dukedom of Leo.
Whether it was the ferocious and terrifying Jackalan expeditionary army or the undead disaster, Kant had become the human countries’ shield. He could be said to have enjoyed the helpless situation, where he had used the Stone Pass as a shield.
The price of retreating is really too high.
The only way is to defend!
Kant clenched his fists and made up his mind.
However, looking at the sun disk in front of him, he had a lot of thoughts. He turned to the mages and said in a deep voice, “Although this kind of strange object can resist the Sky Veil of Death, the range is too small for us!”
The mages were unhurried, and replied, “Lord, the range can be increased!”
Kant frowned.
“I don’t understand.”
“We need more sun disks to absorb their sacred sun pattern, and gradually fuse them together to repair them.”
The mages continued, “If there are no sun disks, then we need more sunlight to recharge them, and to increase the range of these sun disks. Of course, according to our calculations, absorbing an additional sun disk can increase the range by 5000 square meters, while absorbing a year’s worth of sunlight can increase the range by 1000 square meters.”
“The difference is really obvious.” Kant scoffed and shook his head.
It shouldn’t be said that the difference was obvious, the difference is in fact so big that it is equivalent to the distance between heaven and earth!
The solar disk could increase the range by an additional 5,000 square meters. It could be said that as long as Kant had an extra solar disk, he could directly make this so-called divine area disk, become more powerful and have a wider range!
As for absorbing sunlight to recharge, it was not a source of concern for Kant.
Although this is a slow process, compared to absorbing the additional solar disk, the increase in range is still lacking.
It only increased by 1,000 square meters every year, 5,000 square meters in 5 years, and 10,000 square meters in 10 years. For Kant, who was pressed for time, with less than half a year left, it was meaningless!
What Kant needs is time!
But what is worth celebrating is that he happens to have two additional sun disks!
Without communicating or waiting for the Supreme Lord’s order, the mages and Kant dragged out the other sun disk, which is casted in gold, from a corner.
It was a strange object that originated from the era of the ancient gods!
But it was much smaller.
The half-meter-long disc-shaped object did not have the ability to float in the air, nor did it emit a faint golden light. It had the invisible power of a small sun. It was similar to when it was taken from the stone platform.
It also carried dust that had not been cleaned.
The sacred sun pattern carried a few threads of golden light, which were faintly discernible. This proves that the object was extraordinary.
When the sun disc approached the floating sun disc, both of them moved slightly. The golden light flowed rapidly within the sacred sun pattern. The sun disc that was suspended mid-air was emitting an even brighter light. It was as though it had met its partner and was overjoyed, wanting to bring it into its embrace.
This was a close connection between similar strange objects. After being modified using the magical knowledge of the Enfath Empire, it cannot be said to be the same as the previous sun disc. It can only be better!
“Begin the fusion.” The mage Captain spoke.
Five mages stood out and raised their wands together. As the mysterious magic power was displayed, a ray of golden light appeared on the two sun disks. It slowly circulated and fused into one.
