Chapter 396: Arriving at the Capital of East County

The next day, at dawn.

Nali Village was still quiet. The villagers were all holed up inside the village, waiting in despair.

The Elite Desert Bandit outside had already left, but these people were still afraid. But after a night of waiting, this fear finally disappeared quite a bit. It turned into despair and suffocation, as well as indifference to life and death.

The old village chief’s face was abnormally red and ruddy. He was still sitting at his own dining table, enjoying the delicious food.

The whole family was neatly dressed in the best clothes.

In fact, the entire Nali Village was doing the same thing.

They knew that they had encountered a terrifying enemy that was difficult to fight against. It was useless even if they tried to escape.

It was better to enjoy it properly. Otherwise, when they saw the gods they believed in after death, they would not cry and complain that they were hungry. At the very least, they had to eat and drink the best and enjoy the hard-earned peace time.

In the sky outside the village, the occasional chirping of birds could be heard.

Countless birds were flapping their wings.

They looked out of the window.

There were a lot of scavenger birds. There were also pitch-black crows chirping, which added to the despair atmosphere in the village.

If it was as expected, the farmland outside the village had long become a paradise for scavenger animals. They enjoyed the breakfast to their heart’s content, just like they enjoyed the feast.

However, as time went by, the sun had completely risen. The expected massacre did not come upon.

Even the cavalry who were patrolling the streets had disappeared.

“Chief!”

At this moment, the sheriff and finance officer suddenly barged in.

With a face full of surprise, he ignored the family members of the village chief who were still crying and eating breakfast. He said quickly, “They left. They left. Is it Baron Kant? He really let us go!”

“What… what…” The village chief raised his head in surprise.

Along with his son and daughter-in-law, as well as his grandchildren who were just seven or eight years old, their faces were full of surprise.

They had thought that they would die, but it ended peacefully just like that. It was really a pleasant surprise for them. Especially when they thought of the reputation that Baron Kant of being merciful, they were so excited that tears streamed down their faces.

“Thank you, Baron Kant!” They murmured softly as if they were praying. No one objected to this statement.

They all knew that they were the ones who had provoked the battle tonight.

While they were waiting for death at night, they had thought of many things, including the initial stage of blaming each other, the mid-stage despair, and the later stage of looking down on life and death and saying goodbye to each other. They were all mentally prepared.

Now that they found that they could live, they became very happy and excited.

They were also filled with gratitude towards Kant.

Stockholm syndrome.

This group of villagers, even if there were families who died as militiamen, were extremely grateful.

They originally thought that they would be massacred, but they survived. Their Stockholm syndrome was magnified multiple times, causing everyone to feel ashamed and regretful about their attempts to attack Kant.

However, this group of villagers was nothing to Kant.

He had already left Nali Village with his troop.

The temporary camp had completely disappeared on the grain drying field, and they continued to go deep into the East County.

However, they did not follow the plan to go to Mountain of Death. Instead, they bypassed that place and headed to the East County City. Finally, they arrived at the riverbank of the Resniston River, looking for the entrance in the ancient passage, and then returned to their sphere of influence.

That was Aaron City, which was located in the Senwaya Range!

This was the current plan.

However, it was not certain.

There was also a trade caravan heading to Borg to see how their hidden chess piece was doing.

At the same time, they had to contact the Pirates of the Resniston River. After all, there were still princess Sofia’s old subordinates there. Controlling this water army was also beneficial for Kant to control this river channel.

Although there were small incidents in Avilis Castle and Mountain of Death, it did not affect the plan. Only the details had to be handled carefully.

Kant’s identity had been exposed, so he had to be careful in the planning of the trip.

If he was entangled by those crazy devil worshippers from the Crimson Sect and was chased down by Countess Agatha, who already had a very bad relationship with him, it would be really troublesome. He had to give up too much and leave through the mouth of the river as soon as possible.

They would also have to endure the danger of exposing this secret passage at any time.

After all, this was the main road that led directly to the north side of the Senwaya Range.

However, Kant was not worried.

So what if they were exposed? The footmen tactics of the Kingdom of Rhodoks were invincible when they faced off against the enemy.

They held long-hilted broadswords that were like axes as they advanced side by side. They wore the most sturdy thick chain armor and held heavy broad shields that could cover more than half of their bodies. They were like land tanks. In the narrow ancient passage, there was simply no army that could be a match for them.

Unless the enemies used ballistae or other as siege weapons, they would be able to defeat the square formation formed by these heavy armored warriors.

One had to know, even the strongest heavy armored Swadian Knight did not dare to charge at the front of the square formation formed by Rhodok Sergeants.

Not to mention in the square formation, there would be Rhodok Snipers who held siege crossbows and had the ability to kill people from 500 meters away. Even if the enemies used ballistae, they would have to worry about whether these snipers would kill the operators one by one.

In a head-on confrontation, the Rhodok people were not afraid of anyone!

Of course, this was the worst outcome.

Kant looked at Bertram next to him.

This was the guide he had hired at the moment. After heading to East County City, he would also be his spokesperson.

In the future, Bertram would be his representative in East County by helping him deal with certain problems on the surface. Kant had taken Bertram as hostage and made him submit to his feet.

Kant also did not care about Bertram’s loyalty.

The key was whether he could be used or not.

Since Bertram was useful, Kant would use him. Kant was kind enough to give any reward that he could.

If he could not be used, or even secretly trip Kant up. Then there was nothing to say. In the end, he could just send someone to kill him.

Kant, who had high-end extraordinary powers, might find it difficult to assassinate a political figure. However, assassinating this little knight was too easy. It could also give a little deterrence to those people who had evil intentions.

Kant did not care about the material things in this world.

Therefore, he could let go of silver coins and money sources.

It was the same even for the regions.

Only the world of “Mount and Blade” was what he relied on. In this world, other than his system villages, they were all equivalent to colonies.

He did not care who would manage the colonies. He also did not care who would do whatever they wanted in the colonies. However, whoever affected his profits and safety, they would be his enemy.

If Kant wanted to live comfortably, Kant could just hide in the Nahrin Desert.

However, many people in the world did not allow him to live comfortably.

He could only kill!

After leaving Nali Village, Kant led his troops to East County.

Along the way, with Bertram as a guide, they traveled very quickly and did not encounter many people.

Even if they occasionally met a trade caravan, they would pass by each other very calmly. They did not greet each other at all. It was precisely for this reason that they had a safe journey.

Soon, they bypassed Mountain of Death, and the journey was even smoother.

There was no one obstructing them.

After all, it would still take three to five days for the news to spread.

This time was enough for Kant to head to the East County City, find Borg, and put on a disguise. Finally, through the cover of the trade caravan, he disappeared among the countless merchant ships on the Resniston River.

Compared to Kant’s arrival in the eastern county, Viscount Gibran’s transformation into a demon was the topic in the county.

He was a famous general of the Dukedom of Leo.

The pillar of the eastern county.

Now that he had met Kant, he had actually revealed his true identity.

It would greatly to the eastern county. At that time, not to mention Countess Agatha, even the Grand Duke of Leo, Cameron, as well as those top noble families, would have to kill Gibran.

He was the most evil creature in the legends!

There could be no mercy.

The war god’s temple would definitely be involved.

As the national religion of the Dukedom of Leo, it also protected the gods. The god of war, Edmund, belonged to the god of justice.

In the myths, Edmund was in charge of war, he showed no mercy to the evil. In many myths and legends, the god of war, Edmund, smashed the evil god of destruction and led troops to save the world. There were also countless of records of it.

Now that they had encountered the real evil, the demons that had been corrupted by the power of the Abyss, they had the responsibility to kill it.

Even the Silver Platter Kingdom was on the same page as well

If they had heard about this, they would have send over priests of the Holy Church to exorcise Viscount Gibran.

Regarding this kind of evil, no sect of the gods could be indifferent.

There were demonized creatures in this world. After the scholar’s research, they all agreed that these were the animals that had been corrupted by the power of the Abyss. They were represented by strong and fierce lions, cunning and agile wolves, and thick-skinned black bears.

This was already terrifying enough.

Now that there were demonized humans with intelligence, they were naturally more threatening!

For Kant to infiltrate the East County, especially with 30 grand knights as his trump card, those nobles who did not have enough resources and did not dare to rashly fall out with Kant would definitely not act rashly. Although they would not take the initiative to befriend him, it was very possible for them to offer help in secret or turn a blind eye.

Even if some of the noble families were out of their mind and wanted to test Kant’s strength, it did not matter.

Kant’s troops were not to be trifled with.

Even if they were light cavalry.

However, 30 grand knights, 50 knights, and 500 light cavalries were enough to heavily injure any enemy’s troops.

After all, with the help of a high-end extraordinary troop class, which was like 30 modern advanced tanks, with 50 heavy tanks and 500 light tanks, they would be able to annihilate the inferior troops that did not have advanced tanks but only a few heavy tanks and footmen.

In other words, those noble families were not stupid. They corresponded with each other and knew that they were in a disadvantageous position.

Even someone as strong as Viscount Gibran had lost, let alone them!

Therefore, Kant had encountered very little trouble along the way.

Finally, on the evening of the third day, the city wall of the East County appeared on the horizon in the distance.
