Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 379: The End of a Perfect Banquet

“Bang –”

A muffled sound appeared in the void.

The noisy hall gradually quieted down. Everyone looked to their left and right in bewilderment. They didn’t find anything unusual. Finally, they looked at Kant, who was on the highest stage.

“Bang –”

Another muffled sound appeared, and the guests on both sides of the hall discovered the source of the muffled sound.

It came from within the walls on both sides of the Hall of the official residence.

It was like a battering ram smashing heavily against the city wall, and even the guests on the outermost perimeter could only watch as the originally smooth stone walls began to show obvious protruding marks, as if something was trying to rush out from within.

However, before they could react, the protruding marks instantly exploded.

“Boom — Hualala –”

A fog formed by dust instantly filled the hall.

The walls on both sides of the Hall of the official residence collapsed with a loud bang. In the midst of the dust, soldiers wearing full sets of chain armor and holding long swords and axes rushed in. On both sides of the hall, there were two grand knights who were emitting a scorching red glow leading each!

Under the shocked eyes of the many guests, they quickly surrounded them!

“Kill!”

All the soldiers let out a terrifying roar.

The Grand Knights on the left and right side frowned as they looked at the middle of the crowd. Kant, who was on the stage, was actually not being held hostage. They could not help but shout, “Baron Kant, if you surrender, we can still choose to spare your life!”

However, as they were shouting, they were still sweeping through the shocked and shrinking crowd.

They could not find Baron Dylan in the corner.

“Kill!”

In the hall of the mansion, the ambushers who appeared in the other secret passageways also rushed out.

They directly blocked the gate of the mansion and everyone’s escape routes. They held large shields and sharp axes in their hands. For a moment, even the Swadian Knight and the infantrymen who were guarding the gate did not rush in.

No, it was not that they did not rush in, but that they did not rush in at all!

Baron Dylan narrowed his eyes.

He sat on the chair with a complicated look in his eyes. There was even fear in the depths of them.

Now, he had finally discovered why Kant did not have anyone by his side and why his plan could be so easy. It was because right beside him were two lion knights who were secretly hiding and wearing plate armor, at some point in time, they had already caught him in the middle and were monitoring him coldly.

Baron Dylan could not imagine that his plan had already been seen through. Moreover, they were targeting this plan. They wanted to completely kill the ambushers who had broken into the Forbidden City!

“It’s over.”

A soft sigh appeared.

Baron Dylan looked at Kant, who was calm on the high platform, with a complicated expression.

At the same time, he swept his gaze across the “Allies” who seemed to be unaware of the situation. Finally, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. “It’s over...”

It was not too late for him to understand, so he chose to surrender. At the same time, he was glad that he had made a wise move. At the very least, he had already discovered that more Grand Knights had appeared behind those fellows at some unknown time.

They slowly walked out from the secret passage where those guys came from.

There were 15 Grand Knights each.

Including the fully armed Swadian Knight and the Swadian Infantry.

It just so happened that a new encirclement was formed. In the shortest amount of time, it was as if they were strolling leisurely in the garden. At the same time, there were also guards hidden under the wooden platform beside Kant.

“This... this Is...”

The ambushers looked behind and around in panic.

There were more troop class of the Kingdom of Swadia than the 300 or so ambushers.

Especially the four Grand Knights. They looked to their left and right in horror at the Lion Knights, who were wearing strange armor that looked like an entire piece of handicraft. Each of them was breathing so heavily that they could not even speak.

The extraordinary aura on their bodies had disappeared. The fear in their eyes almost made them surrender!

They could sense it.

The troops that surrounded them on their left and right sides..

Each of them had 15 Grand Knights. In other words, there were at least 30 Grand Knights surrounding them!

These ambushers who had suddenly appeared did not dare to act rashly. This was because they knew that if they acted rashly after being surrounded, they would probably be completely annihilated. They would not be able to return successfully like they had planned!

“How could it be... like this...”

The four Grand Knights felt that their mouths were dry.

They looked towards the stage.

Kant had five Grand Knights protecting him personally. It was impossible for him to rush over.

As for the guests in front of them, they were a group of small merchants and small landlords. They did not have any status at all. They did not believe that they could capture Kant, who was a baron and the second son of an Archduke, just by holding these people hostage!

The situation was in a stalemate. Only then did the guests react in a daze. They seemed to have fallen into a conspiracy.

They looked at the nervous soldiers in ambush.

Then they looked at another wave of soldiers waiting to be exhausted.

Finally, they looked at Kant.

They swallowed their saliva. None of them dared to say anything now. They just looked at him with eager eyes.

“Welcome, everyone.”

Kant finally opened his mouth.

With a mocking smile on his lips, he said, “The subordinates of Aunt Agatha from the Eastern County, are you also here to attend my banquet? Unfortunately, this it the end of it. You are too late.”

“We... We...”

The four Grand Knights in the lead were still unable to speak.

There was no way for them to say anything!

Did they have to admit that the reason they came here was not to attend the banquet, but to kidnap Kant, kill him and occupy Stone Pass and Oasis Lookout?

This was a joke!

They had nothing to say.

Even the weapons in their hands could not help but drop in the face of the threat of absolute strength.

The surrounding guests huddled together like quails, but the panic in their eyes faded. Looking at Kant and the surrounding attackers, they understood what had happened.

Obviously, there were attackers who wanted to make trouble, but Baron Kant had dealt with them wisely!

“Everyone.”

Kant spoke on the stage.

Looking at the guests who had recovered, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. “Let me introduce these new guests. They really want to participate in this banquet, but unfortunately, the banquet is about to end.”

The hall was still dead silent, only the sound of heavy breathing could be heard.

No one dared to speak without permission.

Kant shook his head helplessly. “Fatis, come and introduce our friends, their hard work.”

“Okay.”

Among the surrounding crowd, Fatis walked out.

He was also wearing a full set of chain armor, holding a knight’s sword in his hand, he calmly said, “They arrived at the forest near the stone pass late last night and rested until noon today. Then, they sneaked into the official residence in the secret passage outside the Stone Pass, and just now, they officially appeared in front of us.”

“Oh, this is really hard work.” Kant nodded. The smile on his face was still mocking. “But my friends from the Eastern County, with my relationship with Aunt Agatha, you could have come earlier!”

“This... this...”

The eyes of the four Grand Knights widened.

This was clearly their itinerary, but they did not expect Kant to say it like this. If they did not know beforehand and were secretly monitoring, how could they get such accurate information!

Their hearts sank, and they instantly thought of the person who was still discussing the information.

Baron Dylan.

Only he knew about this plan and the specific process.

And now, they saw that Baron Dylan, who was supposed to be coordinating from the inside and the outside, who was the first to hold Kant, the highest commander, did not appear. He did not even appear at all. They already had a guess in their hearts.

Betrayal!

Baron Dylan’s betrayal!

The guests were all breathing heavily as they whispered to each other.

The buzzing sounds were incessant. Although they were terrified now, they were even more curious!

This was a rare occurrence.

After all, even the Countess of the eastern county, Agatha, was involved, and it was Baron Kant who had personally surrounded and occupied the initiative of the attacking troops. This news would definitely be current when it reached their master!

Kant’s smile remained as he looked at the eastern county’s ambushers who were obviously thinking too much. He did not refute.

Instead, he stood on the stage and looked at Baron Dylan.

He opened his mouth and said, “Uncle Dylan, thank you for your help. I think these friends of the eastern county will thank you. If not for your help, these friends would not have been able to come to my banquet so easily.”

“Ha...”

Baron Dylan forced a smile, but his face was ashen.

There was even more noise from the surrounding discussions.

The guests and vassal knights looked at Baron Dylan in surprise.

However, there were also the soldiers from the eastern county who had ambushed him. Their fierce gazes were almost murderous. There were even a few who were hot-tempered. They gritted their teeth and wanted to stab Baron Dylan.

Compared to being surrounded, by force, and betrayed, it was more infuriating!

“Disarm them.”

Kant stopped smiling.

Clapping his hands, he looked at the guests and the soldiers of the eastern county, who were waiting in ambush. “The banquet is over. I don’t think you want the banquet to reach another climax, right? Although I don’t mind, you might mind.”

As he spoke, the knights and infantrymen of Swadia slowly stepped forward.

The exquisite chain armor displayed exquisite defensive effects.

The shields painted with Gold Lions on a red background stood up like low walls.

There were also the warrior and swords that were unsheathed in their hands, making it impossible for anyone to have any thoughts of resisting.

They had already been surrounded and were completely suppressed by force, including numbers. How could they resist? This was tantamount to courting death and ignoring their own lives.

“Clang.”

The four Grand Knights threw down the weapons in their hands happily.

Then, the sound of the weapons falling under their feet continued. All the attackers raised their hands and announced their surrender. Under the strict guard of the knights and infantrymen, they gathered in a corner of the hall.

“It’s settled. The banquet ends perfectly.”

Kant smiled.

Looking at the guests in front of him who had not yet reacted.., he continued to clap his hands. “Alright, my dear friends. I hope that this little accident did not disturb your happy hearts. But as I said, our cooperation will become better over time, and we will be richer and richer!”

“Thank you, merciful Baron Kant!”

The guests quickly expressed their gratitude.

Then, they all said their goodbyes and left the official residence in a hurry, their eyes filled with excitement.

Tonight’s final curtain call was really an eye-opener.
