Lord of the Oasis

Kant rode a camel and walked out of the city gate under the cover of his guards in plainclothes.

However, there was a lot of shouting and shouting outside the city gate, but no one recognized this as the lord of Dehrim.

Disguised as a caravan, Kant and his party traveled in the desert for seven days and arrived at the City of the Dead.

The undead territory logo at the city gate has been replaced with the territory logo of Dehrim.

Kant's guards called to the soldiers guarding the city gate to open the city gate. Under the welcome of the defenders, Kant got off the back of the camel and asked the soldier commander: "Where is General Yadunis?"

"Reporting to the lord, the general is leading a patrol in the city and should be on his way in at this time." The soldier commander bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"Well, take me to your military camp. I'll wait for him there." Kant nodded and said.

"Yes." The soldier commander stood at attention and replied. After instructing a soldier on the side to send a message to General Adonis, he got on the horse and asked Kant to follow him.

Kant rode on the camel and moved forward slowly. On the way, he also browsed the urban planning and design of the undead tribe, which was slightly different from the cities of normal humans.

After just a brief observation, Kant discovered that it was exactly what he thought: the cities of the undead were all made of stone houses, the distances between them were uneven, and the width of the land was also very different. The streets have also been distorted by the construction of these houses.

However, the houses on both sides of the street had been completely dismantled by the repairmen sent by Dehreem. Kant just observed the exposed foundations and the stones paved on the street, and roughly imagined what the original city of the dead looked like.

As he traveled along the way, Kant probably had an idea of ​​the renovation project in his mind.

Entering the military camp, Kant sat down at the general's seat and waited quietly.

"Lord Kant!" With a shout, a tall soldier wearing a battle uniform walked into Kant's camp.

"General Adonis, long time no see." Kant stood up and greeted with a smile.

Adonis walked up to Kant and saluted, then said breathlessly: "I heard from the soldiers guarding the city that you were here, so I rushed over immediately. I originally thought that you would arrive here tomorrow. After all, there are often times in the desert recently. The wind is blowing up. It’s really bad weather that’s not conducive to travel.”

Kant responded with a smile: "I didn't sit here for a while and you came.

Why be in such a hurry? Take a breather and rest first. "

After saying that, Kant ordered the guard on the side to bring a glass of water to Adonis. After receiving it with thanks, Adonis immediately drank it into his mouth.

"Sorry, I'm rude." Adonis wiped his mouth and said apologetically.

Kant knew that this was his nature, so he didn't say anything, smiled and shook his head.

"Is the lord here this time for the renovation project?" Yadunis asked.

"Probably, I don't plan to stay here for long. I just came to see how the progress here is going." Kant then changed his mind and suddenly turned around and asked: "Here... hasn't been named yet?"

"Yes." Adonis scratched his head and said, "Someone in the team reported the city name proposal to you before, but did not receive a response. We don't know how to specifically call this place."

"Oh. Maybe I missed it." Kant seemed to have recalled something and nodded.

In fact, documents sent from ministers or from other territories, thought to be numerous, would be classified into various levels. Kant was only responsible for dealing with the upper three levels, and the rest were left to the high-ranking ministers who usually discussed national policies together.

Something as simple and tedious as naming was probably passed on to the ministers in charge and ignored.

However, Kant did not say that he had not seen it. The officer who presented the text only knew that he needed to mark the importance of the document according to the priority of the matter. But he didn't know that part of the copy would not be sent to the lord.

Thinking about it now, Kant feels that such a process is indeed not very rigorous, and mistakes may occur at any time. After the empire is established, amendments must be made to this in the newly promulgated constitution, so that the imperial machine can operate without any flaw.

Adonis didn't think much about it, but just replied: "I heard that Lord, you will be correcting documents in the Senate Hall until late at night every day. Recently, Dehreim often has to go out to fight. Lord, you will forget such small things. Omissions are inevitable.”

"Have the rumors about me spread to your place so far away?" Kant said in a joking tone: "How about you discuss the name of this city and decide it yourself. After all, you are the ones who have been guarding here. "

"Really?" Yadunis looked a little surprised. They should be the first batch of soldiers to decide the name of the country's colony.

"Yeah." Kant nodded: "But before you choose a name, you have to check the background of the name. Don't just think it sounds good."

"Okay, thank you, Lord." Adonis agreed excitedly.

"Tomorrow I will follow the repair troops to the site to supervise the work. You go and tell the people in the troops in advance. Let them do whatever they need to do and don't worry about me." Kant told Yadunis in detail.

"As ordered." Yadunis bowed and agreed.

Kant's short-term residence in the main city of the Kingdom of the Dead was not in a military camp, but in a newly built civilian residence by the repairing troops next to the original site of the palace.

Kant's room was arranged on the third floor, while the other guards rested on the second floor.

After Kant entered the famous residence, he looked around, then climbed the stairs and walked into his room.

This room is very spacious and fully equipped with all facilities.

"It's a pity that there is nothing outside the window." Kant commented while standing by the window, looking at the ruins of the old palace after demolition.

The atmosphere here is completely different from Cumberland. Judging from the current trend: this place should be built into a typical industrial city in the future. Responsible for providing raw material processing and so on.

However, it belongs with Cumberland and does suitably fill in the deficiencies of Dehreim.

"Dong dong!" The guard knocked on the door of the room.

Kant shouted to let him in. The guard opened the door and placed a few stacks of drawings on the table in the living room. He said to Kant respectfully: "Lord, this is sent by Yadunis from the repair staff. Please take a look."

Kant nodded, indicating that he understood.

The soldier took the candlestick close to the drawing farther away and then left.

Kant sat down on the floor and began to pick up the design drawings and read them carefully.
