[ System, I want to use the troop class pack: Mage of the Enfath Empire × 50 ]
As Kant’s thoughts raced, the ten golden cards in the depths of his mind disappeared one by one.
After a while, a slight tremor came from the ground.
“Lord, an army is coming from the South Main Road!”
Baheshtur saw from afar that on the South Main Road, a dense but orderly army was rapidly advancing towards them.
“It doesn’t matter, that’s our reinforcements!” Kant replied.
Such things had happened many times. The soldiers who were loyal to him would naturally accept these troops that suddenly appeared to attack the world.
The arriving army soon arrived beside the army led by Kant and Baheshtur.
From the army came a Swadian Royal Knight, a Sarleon Lion Knight, and a mage from the Enfath Empire.
They came before Kant and said respectfully,
“My lord, we have been summoned by you. We are here to return to the army!”
“Very well, gather your knight comrades and mage partners and join my troops!”
Kant sat on the horse; his tone filled with excitement.
No matter what kind of enemies were waiting for him in the noble district of Eastern District, these 500 extraordinary knights and mages truly belonged to him.
He had doubled his high-end battle strength.
With an army of nearly a thousand people with extraordinary power and 2,600 level troop class 5 soldiers, no matter how strong the noble district was, Kant had nothing to fear.
Kant ordered the ten Sarleon Lion Knights to take the lead and advance along the East Main Road to investigate the situation on the East Main Road.
At the same time, he instructed that once they met the enemy, they only needed to see the enemy’s lineup clearly and return to report.
After arranging the ten Sarleon Lion Knights to scout the way.
Kant pulled out the magnificent and noble but shining king sword and pointed in the direction of the East Main Road.
“Set off!” Kant rode on a strong warhorse and walked at the front.
Behind him, there were nearly a thousand extraordinary power holders.
Baheshtur led 900 Rhodok Sergeants to follow behind. Behind Rhodok Sergeants, there were 1200 archers, and finally, 500 Mamlukes, riding on warhorses to follow closely behind.
If a private noble army dared to sneak attack from behind, the charge attack of these 500 Mamlukes would make them pay the price.
Kant’s army was too terrifying. The shops, taverns, and inns on both sides of the main roads in the central city area of Lionheart City were too afraid to open their doors.
After Kant led the army far away, the central city area of Lionheart City seemed to come alive.
Merchants, civilians, thieves, street entertainers who played tricks, and wanderers who were down and out appeared one after another. However, there was no carriage that traveled north and south, so the central city was much quieter than before.
In the densely populated areas, the news spread very quickly.
At this time, almost everyone knew that the terrifying army that had just left for the Eastern District belonged to Baron Kant.
Although the people lived as usual, there seemed to be some changes.
“Old John, weigh me twenty pounds of black bread!”
A commoner wearing a rough linen robe with patches said to the owner of the bakery.
“Oh, it’s Poor Tom. Don’t you usually only buy three pounds of black bread?”
Old John, who was baking delicate and fragrant white bread in the bakery, took a moment to glance at the customers who entered the shop and spoke. Obviously, he did not intend to stop his work and immediately served Tom.
“I heard that Baron Kant is going to occupy Lionheart City, so I naturally have to store more food. Maybe I can buy 20 pounds of black bread with small silver coins now, and in a few days, I can only buy 10 pounds or less of black bread.”
When Old John heard this, he also sighed.
“God of War, I hope Master Kant is as kind as the rumors say!” Old John said this, but he was not in a good mood. He stopped what he was doing and weighed the black bread for Tom.
In his opinion, it was impossible for Baron Kant to raise so many elite soldiers without paying a heavy tax.
Moreover, Baron Kant had a bad reputation of defecting to the devil recently, which made him worried.
“Hey, I hope you won’t go bankrupt!”
After receiving the heavy, almost six or seven pieces of hard black bread, Tom showed a satisfied expression, and then said to Old John with some ridicule.
Tom was not as worried as Old John. Anyway, his small silver coins had all been replaced with black bread. In his heart, he still hoped that Old John would be unlucky, because Old John always looked down on him.
“Get out of here!” Old John’s voice was exasperated.
Kant had already entered the Eastern District of Lionheart City, which was also known as the noble district.
The nobles who were able to occupy a piece of land close to the East Main Road were naturally some powerful noble families. Many of them had the title of viscount.
These noble families were all very powerful. In their small manors, there were at least hundreds of elite private soldiers.
Kant guessed that these private soldiers of the noble families would rush out of their small manors and gather on the East Main Road to stop him. They might even want to annihilate him.
The noble area was still the territory of Cameron, Duke of Leo.
In Lionheart City, the four top-tier noble families controlled the four city gates. Just the income tax alone was a huge amount of income. There were also various kinds of gray income that allowed them to obtain extremely rich benefits in Lionheart City.
But even so, they could not compare to Cameron, Duke of Leo.
Just by monopolizing some luxury daily necessities, Duke of Leo could earn far more from these noble families than the four top-tier noble families could earn from the four city gates.
This undoubtedly proved that the strength of the four top-tier noble families was inferior to that of Cameron.
Although some of the nobles in the Eastern District were surrounded by the four top-tier noble families, they were still the vassals of Cameron, Duke of Leo.
If the Duke of Leo gave a forceful order, they had to listen to it.
Otherwise, the Duke of Leo might find an excuse to attack them. At that time, they would be directly exterminated. Such a loss was much more serious than sending the elites in Lionheart City to fight against Baron Kant.
This was decided by the difference in strength. They were not as powerful as the four top-tier noble families. They did not have the capital to be arrogant in front of Cameron, Duke of Leo.
Kant was also prepared to crush the private army of these small and medium-sized noble families.
But in reality, the situation in the noble district of Eastern District was completely different from what Kant had imagined.
