Chapter 223: Research Of Mage Apprentices

The maid quickly sent a box full of elemental gems to the dormitory on the top floor.

These otaku mage apprentices did not have many hobbies. Studying the essence of magic was what they were passionate about, just like the graduate students who loved to study. They worked extremely hard.

In the world of the Enfath Empire, it was the world of the high magic MOD, the wind of war!

It could be said that it was the most difficult world to play among the “Mount & Blade” MOD.

All kinds of spells, divine spell, innate skills, as well as all kinds of races and special monsters were constantly emerging. Just by relying on these apprentices who had only mastered the basic principle of spells, they were equivalent to low-level cannon fodder in that world.

It was no wonder that they worked so hard, almost as if they were ascetics. If they did not work hard, it was equivalent to suicide!

The Enfath Empire was especially heavy on military force.

Even if they were mage apprentices, before they had received systematic training, they could not leave their masters.

At that time, they were still called mage students.

Only after they had learned all the conventional spell knowledge could they be called mage apprentices.

Therefore, they could assist their instructors in conducting spell experiments.

Otherwise, if they knew nothing about spells and was vague about the concepts and theories of spells, those mages or great mages who acted as mentors would probably fly into a rage and kick out all these mage apprentices who could not achieve anything and could not do anything. Only the students who could be trusted could participate.

Although mage apprentices had the title of apprentices, they had already finished their studies.

They had the ability to protect themselves even on the battlefield.

Now, Kant had let these mage apprentices to study and analyze the elemental gems. It was obviously the right choice. They also urgently needed examples to analyze and study the magic rules of this world.

There were already seven mage apprentices in the mage dormitory.

When they saw these elemental gems, their eyes immediately lit up.

There were all sorts of experimental equipment reserved in the dormitory. They were all the standard equipment of the Enfath Empire. The mage apprentices could directly carry out spell experiments, allowing them to immediately enter into diligent research.

They could be said to be familiar with magic research and self-experimentation.

As magic power stimulated the elemental gems.

In the mage dormitory, light yellow and light blue light flashed from time to time within the glass-inlaid windows. It was extremely strange and mysterious. At the same time, it was accompanied by faint spatial fluctuations, causing the twenty Vaegir marksman stationed on the top floor next to them to look over, their eyes filled with fear.

Abilities that were beyond their knowledge were all mysterious and extraordinary powers.

However, it was on the first floor of the council hall. As time passed, the Sun had already risen into the sky, and it was right in the middle.

11:30 am.

The banquet in the council hall began.

Not only Firentis and the others were invited, but the leader of the trade caravan, Joslin, and the other two leaders of the trade caravan who belonged to Kant, as well as the 10 Swadian knights who had fought valiantly in the past battles and had made meritorious contributions, and 10 Mamlukes, who attended as invited gentlemen.

Although the Swadian knight and Mamluke were troop class, they were the noble gentlemen of the Kingdom of Swadia and the Sarrand Sultanate, and did not wear full armor, but simply wore casual clothes, which gave them an elegant demeanor.

The banquet was very large and could be said to be the largest noble banquet held by Kant.

Borg and his old butler were also invited.

This was a farewell banquet.

Bunduk and Rolf were going to lead their troops to their respective defense areas.

At the same time, Borg was going to leave.

His mission was to return to the East County as Kant’s spy.

In the future, there would be a continuous support from “Drondheim” Castle to Borg so that his family could overcome the difficulties. At the same time, he would develop his own power in the East County territory and provide all kinds of secret information for Kant to intervene in the Dukedom of Leo in the future or providing necessary help.

Kant had paid a great price to invest in Borg.

5,000 great silver coins had been handed over to Borg.

At the same time, there was a trade cooperation agreement signed between the two sides.

In the Dukedom of Leo, it was roughly estimated that the price was 20 great silver coins for a bag of date palm candy. Kant sold it to Borg for 10 great silver coins, which was equal to a 50% discount. As for how Borg would sell it in the future, it was up to him, Kant and Oasis Lookout did not have many restrictions on him. Kant only needed Borg to send some information back to him during the monthly transactions.

However, when Kant sent spies into the Dukedom of Leo or the East County territory to develop secret forces, Borg had to help. Otherwise, the cooperation between the two sides would automatically be dissolved. He and his family members would also be on Kant’s assassination list.

Under the temptation of benefits and the threat of force, Borg had no choice but to cooperate.

This was the only way he could choose.

If he did not cooperate, Kant would definitely let the soldiers kill him.

In fact, even if Borg returned to the Dukedom of Leo, he would have to accept the fact that his family would be bankrupt. Everyone would become a pauper with nothing, that was much worse than death.

Borg simply chose to cooperate.

When he came to the Nahrin Desert, he saw the castle on the Oasis Lookout.

Borg understood that he had found a new opportunity. Moreover, after seizing this opportunity in his cell, he no longer had the idea of being a spy for Viscount Wayne. He had the confidence to let his family rise again!

After controlling the extremely sweet sugar trade, why would his family still go bankrupt?

Absolutely Not!

After the banquet ended, Borg set off together with Bunduk and Rolf.

He and his old butler was very satisfied!

At the same time, he was astonished by Baron Kant’s military strength, and he was even more certain of his cooperation. As for whether he would betray Kant or not, Kant had warned him beforehand that if he chose to betray, his entire family would be assassinated. Borg had a bottom line in his heart after that, he did not have any single thought of betrayal.

This was a blatant threat. Kant did not hide his determination to assassinate anyone.

Borg also believed in the authenticity of Kant’s words.

Just like now.

Manid and his 30 camels formed a camel team and were heading to the stone pass for the table salt trade.

They were accompanied by 30 Sarrandian horsemen as guards.

The 10 horsemen were Borg’s personal guards. They followed him from the small path in the Senwaya Range, bypassing the Stone Pass, and bypassing the noble’s eyes of the north and east county through the hidden mountain paths. These horsemen would guard Borg’s family and help him solve his future problems, as well as act as monitors.

These 10 knight-level Sarrandian horsemen made Borg’s heart tremble. He didn’t dare to have any thoughts of betrayal. After all, ordinary noble didn’t have the capital to recruit these powerful horsemen!

Before they reached the posthouse, both sides separated.

After all, there were many people around the posthouse. If they were discovered by spies, they would have to deal with these troubles.

Manid still followed the usual route to the stone pass.

On the back of the single-humped camel, there were bags of fine white salt. Each trade brought back 2,000 great silver coins or resources that were urgently needed in the Oasis Lookout.

This was an trade line that could not be concealed.

At the same time, it was also an obvious sentry that attracted many gazes.

However, any spies and merchants who went to the posthouse and rested for a short period of time could not get close to the camel caravan. This was because the 20 Sarrandian horsemen would not be polite. If they did not listen to the advice, they would be whipped. If the other party drew their swords, these horsemen would charge forward without fear, displaying the valiant combat strength of a level 4 cavalry!

Ordinary merchants and guards were unable to contend against these Sarrandian horsemen. Moreover, they were in the desert where the horseman was most adept at. If they caused some unpleasant incidents, they were just simply looking for trouble.

It was simple for Bunduk.

Ten Mamlukes would escort him to “Aaron” village at the periphery of the Senwaya Range.

When they arrived, James would assist them with administrative matters.

In fact, Rolf’s burden was heavier.

In order to complete the patrol mission arranged by Kant and prevent large numbers of enemies from infiltrating, Rolf brought out a total of 140 original and newly recruited desert bandits in the castle.

After heading to the posthouse, they contacted the 40 original desert bandits who stationed over there. All of them had 180 people, which was almost equivalent to a medium-sized cavalry team. Moreover, their combat strength was relatively strong, and they were good at running and attacking in the desert.

In a harsh environment, only these bandits could patrol the desert.

Kant was worried that a strong force might appear.

He even specially arranged for Rolf to have 50 Sarrandian horsemen as the main assault force. If they encountered enemies that the desert bandits and light cavalries could not contend with, they would have these heavy cavalries charge directly and destroy anyone who dared to step into the desert and the intruders who came to their estate.

After all, the noble families of the Dukedom of Leo would definitely not just send some spies. If they knew that spies could not even get close to the Oasis Lookout, it was likely that various “Bandit” forces would appear in the Nahrin Desert. These vicious dogs that were secretly raised by them would come in handy at this time.

Kant had a deep understanding of this.

Although the desert bandits were all bandits, their equipment was still poor, and their numbers were also low.

If they were to engage in a battle with the dark forces from the Dukedom of Leo, the outcome would not be one-sided. There would definitely be casualties, or worst, they might even encounter enemies that they could not deal with.

If they encountered some shameless noble who directly send army troops to disguise themselves into bandits, that would be even more tricky to handle.

Therefore, these 50 Sarrandian horsemen were very timely in providing support.

When everything was arranged properly.

.........

At dusk, the maids and peasant women had already cleaned up the council hall.

There weren’t many traces of the banquet.

A maid knocked on Kant’s door and reported, “My Lord, the mages in the dormitory have discovered a few secrets about elemental gems and spells, and they hope that you can go over and inspect their research results.”

“Okay.”, Kant nodded. “I understand.”

It was only the afternoon.

He was about to rest, but he did not expect the progress of the research to be so fast.

Originally, Kant thought that these mage apprentices would need at least a few weeks to research and analyze the elemental gemstones. Now, they did it in less than 12 hours, the results were out of his expectations.

After putting on his clothes, the sleepiness from the lunch break also disappeared.

Kant planned to go and take a look.
