Chapter 259 - The Sword of the King
Chapter 259: The Sword of the King
If he wanted to save Bunduk, the system mall’s lucky draw was Kant’s only choice.
Looking at the 20 honor points displayed in his mind.
Kant took a deep breath and ordered the system in a deep voice, “Start the lucky draw, 10 consecutive lucky draws!”
The dialog box on his retina immediately popped up.
[ Ding… Lucky draw begins ]
The colorful treasure box slowly opened.
On the dialog box, notifications about the lucky draw gift pack kept appearing.
[ You have received a construction pack: Posthouse X 2]
[ You have received a construction pack: Sheep farm X 5]
[ You have received a construction pack: Wool workshop X 5]
[ You have received a construction pack: Tanning workshop X 5]

[ You have received an item pack: Sheep × 500]
[ You have received an item pack: Refugee tide × 200 people (male)]
[ You have received an item pack: Refugee tide × 200 people (female)]
[ You have received a special item pack: Terrain modification (River)]
[ You have received a special item pack: Terrain modification (Tributary)]
The notification bar finally ended.
This was the result of 10 consecutive lucky draws.
However, the system did not end the notification bar. There was an additional reward.
[ You have received a construction pack: Water bandits’ lair ]
The lucky draw was announced to be over.
Kant’s face was calm, but there was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.
The lucky draw this time could be considered generous, especially the construction pack that was drawn. It was a complete set of handicrafts related construction. By combining the sheep raising industry and the textile industry, one could obtain the output in the shortest amount of time.
The wool could be directly woven into blankets or woolen clothes. After being worsted, it became better than the linen.
What Kant obtained was sheep.
In terms of the amount of wool, it was far from what the sand gazelles in the Senwaya Range could produce.
And the tanning workshop that appeared again had already appeared in “Drondheim” Castle. They could tan many fine leather robes by relying on the sand gazelles. It was quite effective in providing the soldiers on night duty with protection against the cold at night.
Even Manid had the intention of exporting the leather robes when he went to the Stone Pass this time.
Kant could not possibly be in seclusion.
Although he restricted the communication between the Nahrin Desert and the outside world, it was not strictly prohibited.
Kant only prohibited the outside forces from coming into contact with his core castle and discovering it. He would engage in economic exchanges with the other party. He would definitely not object to start a trade. He sent back the captured poor merchant, Borg back to East County for the sake of trade.
At the same time, he developed a secret trading line in the Dukedom of Leo.
Sugar cubes, which were expensive and comparable to spices and table salt, were naturally the mainstream commodities.
But as long as the trade started, the subsequent commodities would still follow.
For example, the linen, leather products, fur products, wool products that Kant could now produce, and even the rich dried meat, smoked meat, and other stored food were all commodities that could be exported.
Although it was impossible to produce too many in a short time, but the future development was promising. It would expand the current agriculture, aquaculture, textile, handicraft, and so on, forming a source of trade that could produce all kinds of goods. With the advantage of Kant’s golden finger, they would destroy the original economic products of the Dukedom of Leo, caused monopoly and dumping of resources.
In the feudal era of cold weapons, there was not so much research on commercial activities.
Even if they were to start dumping, they could use silver coins to open a path without any obstruction.
“Not bad.”
Kant made a comment on this lucky draw.
However, he turned to look at the room next to him and frowned slightly.
Bunduk’s injuries were serious. James’ healing techniques and the medical standards of the regular historical MOD weren’t able to reach the level of the fantasy MOD could use magic to heal any injuries.
What Kant wanted to obtain in the system lottery was a rare item or troop class that had healing spells.
This was the hope to heal Bunduk.
“There’s still a chance to draw again.”
Kant frowned and continued to communicate with the system in his mind. He gave the order, “Start the lucky draw.”
The dialog box on his retina immediately refreshed.
[ Ding… Lucky draw begins ]
The system gave a prompt.
The prompt bar on the dialog box was refreshing rapidly.

[ You have received a special pack: Terrain modification (River)]
[ You have received a special pack: Terrain modification (Lake)]
The 10 consecutive draws of this round had ended.
The system once again popped up a notification, and there was an additional reward.
[ You have received an item pack: Sword of the King ]
The draw this time had ended.
Kant glanced at the gift pack that he had received, and his face was slightly gloomy.
Among the 11 gift packs that he had received in the draw this time, there were also no items or troop class that were related to healing spells.
He had placed all his hopes on the system, but in the end, the result was like this. How could Kant’s face look happy, how could he be in a good mood?
Of course not!
He sat on the chair dejectedly.
Kant rubbed his head and felt that his temples were a little swollen.
In other words, he was not mentally prepared for the departure of his loyal subordinate, the captain of the crossbowmen, Bunduk. This was the first time since he established his force in the Nahrin Desert.
Even during the attacks of those high-level Jackalans from the Kingdom of Grey Mane, he did not suffer any losses.
Now, just because of one order from him, Bunduk was about to die.
Kant’s mood was very frustrating!
He sat on the chair for a long time before he recovered his mood.
His thoughts moved slightly, and a stream of data appeared in his palm. In the blink of an eye, a western-style longsword appeared in his hand. The hilt of the sword was decorated with gold patterns. Although the overall design was simple, it exuded a vigorous appearance, in addition to the gold patterns on the scabbard, just looking at it gave off a feeling of nobility.
This was the item pack that Kant had drawn, the sword of the King.
The only item that he had obtained from the two draws.
[ Sword of the King: This is a weapon once held by a legendary hero. It was forged by the lake elves using divine power and represents the sovereign’s authority. Only a true king with a bright heart can use it. It is also a supreme holy item that is conferred the title of knight. Special effect 1: Justice. This sword contains the power of justice. When you join the battle against the evil faction, your direct troops will receive a 200% increase in power. 2: Accolade. This sword can confer a knight title to someone. It can draw divine power from the lake elves and bestow a knight with new power. ]
On his retina, the dialog box was filled with a dense introduction of the longsword’s attributes.
Kant’s expression was slightly stunned.
However, he immediately gripped the longsword’s hilt tightly. His bad mood from not being able to extract a healing item seemed to have recovered a little at this moment.
“The Sword of the King.”, Kant frowned.
He glanced at the introduction on the dialog box.
What was said above, that only a true king could use it, were all empty words to him.
He looked directly at the special effect pane.
[ Special effect 1, Justice: This sword contains the power of justice. When joining the battle against the evil faction, the troops directly under it will receive a 200% increase. ]
[ Special effect 2, Accolade: This sword can confer the title of knight. It can draw upon the divine power instilled in the lake elves and bestow a knight with new power. ]
Kant’s pupils instantly constricted.
Then, he clenched his fists and looked down at the gold-gilded longsword. He could not help but mutter, “It really is the Sword of the King!”
Special effect 1 was a targeted special effect, Justice, used it against evil creatures, and received a 200% buff.
In other words, if Kant fought against the demons in the underground city in the karst cave the next time, as long as Kant brought the Sword of the King to personally command the troops, then the troops under him would receive an additional 200% buff. Whether it was in terms of strength, speed, stamina, and agility were all qualitative improvements.
For example, the most common level-3 footmen of Kant, Rhodok trained spearmen, after being buffed by the Sword of the King, might be able to fight against the same number of long-horned demons in formation.
In terms of combat strength, the long-horned demons were slightly higher than the Level-4 strongest footmen, Rhodok veteran spearmen!
They could even fight against a level-5 footmen, Rhodok sergeants.
Now, the level-3 footmen Rhodok trained spearmen could fight against the long-horned demons. It had to be said that it was very helpful for Kant to conquer the Senwaya Range.
After all, Kant did not know how many demons were hidden in the Senwaya Range.
It could be seen from the number of demonized creatures everywhere, there were definitely a lot of demons!
However, what relieved Kant’s pressure was the special effect 2, Accolade.
The introduction clearly stated that a knight could be conferred. However, Kant was puzzled about this point. After all, in the Kingdom of Swadia’s forces, a Swadian knight could only be obtained through level up.
To confer a knight, it was too much.
Kant did not lack experience.
The advantage of having so many enemies was that they could lead their troops to attack at any time. While clearing the enemies, they could also train their troops and level up the low-level troop class. This would allow their troops to quickly become elites in the process of battle.
The power of the golden finger was undoubtedly revealed. It could cheat the battles for a short period of time and quickly increase their military strength.
[ Ding… system prompt ]
[ This rare item is a king’s item and has the power of a king. It can be used to upgrade a troop class of knights. ]
[ Current troop class that can be upgraded is: Swadian knight. ]
[100 reputation points can be used to confer the Swadian knight as a Swadian royal knight. After the conferment is completed, the knight will be promoted to a royal knight and receive a portion of the king’s power contained in the king’s sword. ]
[ Remark: A rare item [ Order of the Lion Medal ] has been detected. Combined with the Sword of the King, this medal can be used as a foundation. Consume 10,000 reputation points and 100,000 denars to officially establish the Sarleon Order of Lion. ]. Please continue to check for the specific introduction after the official establishment of the knight order. ]
It seemed to have noticed Kant’s confusion.
The system immediately popped up a dialog box.
