Lord of the Oasis - Chapter 656

Chapter 656: Pep Talk for the Training Ground

Because of the orders from above, the soldiers in the training camp were also suffering.

The daily mission quota had increased by two to three times compared to before.

However, even Kant went to the training ground to patrol every day, accompanying them in the sun and wind.

Everyone didn’t dare to complain too much. After all, the Lord was accompanying them, so they couldn’t say anything.

One day at noon, Kant arrived at the training ground earlier than usual. Bunduk, who was in charge of training the soldiers, handed over the task of being to the soldier in the lead. He walked forward and saluted, “Lord Kant.”

Kant nodded, indicating for him to stand up.

The two of them walked around the training ground.

Kant walked up to the general’s platform and asked Bunduk beside him, “How is it? How are the soldiers?”

Bunduk leaned over to his ear and said, “I estimate that at that time of setting off, only two-thirds of the soldiers here will be able to use their strength on the battlefield.”

Kant calmly nodded and said, “Are you sure two-thirds is enough?”

“We will definitely take down the enemy and return!!” Bunduk puffed out his chest and said confidently.

“The battlefield this time is dangerous. You must not underestimate the enemy. You must take into account the safety of our soldiers,” Kant instructed.

“Yes, sir.”

“How long until the training ends?” Kant asked.

“After more than a month of training, the time for the soldiers to complete the mission has gradually shortened. The training mission this morning has almost been completed.” Bunduk replied.

“Mm.” Kant nodded and pondered for a moment. He then said to Bunduk, “After the soldiers’ training ends, I want to say a few words to them. Help me organize and gather them.”

Bunduk nodded and replied, “Then I will go and inform the captains of the teams now.”

After Bunduk left, Kant stood alone on the main general stage.

When the sun in the sky rose a few inches higher, the selected soldiers who were about to go into battle also lined up neatly in front of him.

“Hello, everyone. I am the Lord of Drondheim, Kant.” Kant’s voice echoed in the empty field.

“Thank you for your recent training. But I still want to tell you that I hope you know what you are doing for. Our country, Drondheim, is definitely not a lazy country that doesn’t want to make progress, slacking off and waiting for others to bully us. The life of an adult is not easy. In order to protect our family and hometown, we must take the burden and pressure on our shoulders. As the Lord of Drondheim, I always feel that if we don’t think about doing something right now, we won’t be able to reach any part of the world. In a few days, you will set off, and I hope you will fight bravely on the battlefield and then return in triumph! Drondheim will always be behind you!!”

“Drondheim! Drondheim!!” the soldiers shouted in unison. Everyone’s blood was boiling.

Thousands of people’s voices surged toward Kant like a tide.

Kant nodded and continued, “Alright, I’ve said what I wanted to say. You guys go and make preparations before the expedition. From now on, every minute and second must be in your hands. Only then can you bring out your best status in the battles.”

“Yes!” the soldiers below bowed and left the training ground under the lead of the leader of their respective teams.

Kant walked down the main general stage, and Bunduk followed closely behind.

After the two of them stepped out of the training ground’s door, Kant said to Bunduk, “I’ll be going to another place soon. The affairs of Drondheim can only be left to you.”

“Lord, are you going?” Bunduk asked in surprise.

After all, Kant would not be absent every time he sent troops.

“You have to prepare for the expedition, and I have to make plans for you during this time,” Kant said, “But don’t worry, I will try my best to rush back before you go on the expedition.”

Bunduk nodded and agreed to Kant’s request.

The matters were not important. After all, he had been in Cumberland for half a year, and he was already used to handling some government affairs.

But before the great war, where was Kant going?

Watching Kant’s back disappear from his sight, Bunduk could not help but wonder in his heart.

A few days passed.

Kant left Drondheim on the second day of the oath ceremony.

Bunduk, on the other hand, was extremely busy. It was still too difficult for him to take care of both the army and the people’s livelihood.

It was only on the day of the expedition that his troops bid farewell to the civilians who had come to send them off and rode their camels out of the castle gates. Bunduk finally heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

There were about three thousand soldiers on the march. They moved forward in the hot desert and formed a long line.

This time, it would take about half a month to reach the undead’s territory. The army had prepared sufficient supplies before they left.

The army walked out of the castle gate using the compass for about half an hour.

Bunduk noticed a group of people rushing towards him from the west.

“It’s Lord Kant!” his subordinate reported to him after he saw who it was.

“Tell all the troops to stop.” Bunduk ordered.

The soldiers who received the order stopped to rest and reorganize. Bunduk stood at the front of the troops and waited for Kant’s troops to arrive in front of them.

There were more than twenty elves behind Kant, and four of them were carrying some boxes.

Bunduk walked in front of Kant’s camel and saluted first. Then, he pointed at the soldiers behind Kant and asked, “Lord, what are these?”

“These are the medical soldiers sent by the Elf Kingdom to assist us. You should have seen them before on that battlefield.” Kant jumped off the camel’s back.

He walked up to a few of the elves and asked them to put down the chests.

Bunduk recalled that on the previous battlefield, the elven medical soldiers had indeed played a great role.

“The Elven King has sent over one-third of the country’s medical soldiers.” Kant opened the chest in front of him as he spoke. “Come here, I want you to take a look at this.”

“Lord, you went to the Elf Kingdom this time?” Bunduk asked with his mouth agape.

This matter had truly exceeded his expectations.

Bunduk obediently walked to Kant’s side and watched him take out a weapon that looked like a crossbow from the chest.

“This is?”

“This is a rainbow crossbow. I asked the craftsmen of the Dwarf Kingdom to help me make it. It was originally left for the soldiers of Cumberland to use as weapons. The crystals inside are sealed with the spiritual power of different elves, and each of them is extremely powerful.”

Bunduk took the rainbow crossbow and shot an elemental arrow into the distance as if he was using an ordinary crossbow.

The arrow that was shot out blew the sand on the ground and pierced through the trees in the distance, leaving a large scorched hole.
