Chapter 522: The Surprise Attack Came to A Perfect End

“Very good, I’ve actually received two war comment that can give me honor points!”

Kant saw the words on his retina, and his heart was incomparably happy.

One epic victory, one legendary victory.

A total of 12 honor points reward.

It was enough for him to draw 12 system gift packs.

“Pass down the order, have the soldiers return to the battleship, and at the same time send out soldiers to stand guard.”

“If there are any merchant ships that dare to spy on our army, sink them!”

Kant directly gave the order.

From the system prompt, he already knew that the two battles were ended.

The night was very dark, and it was not a good time to deal with the battlefield.

In Baheshtur’s war plan, the surprise attack could be considered a success.

The rest would have to wait until tomorrow.

After Kant gave the order, the Water Bandit Bosuns and Water Bandit Captains who had sneaked into the river returned to their warships.

The fleet was quietly docked on the river near the navy camp. It was like a ferocious beast crawling in the darkness. Although it was quiet, it was very dangerous.

If any merchant ships dared to approach from the river, they would definitely be killed.

The water bandits were all professionals in doing such things.

Next, it was the lottery that Kant had been looking forward to for a long time.

Hopefully, he would be able to draw one or two heroes this time.

Kant even washed his hands for this, hoping to get some good luck.

His plan had already changed, and he no longer intended to use the noble of this world to serve him.

Instead, he would use the characters from the world of “Mount and Blade” to serve him.

These people were summoned from the Continent of Caradia by the system. Regardless of whether they were soldiers or heroes, they had a constant loyalty to him.

He never had to worry about them defecting.

What they looked like when they were in Caradia, what kind of personality they had, when the system summoned them, they didn’t change much.

The only change was their constant loyalty to him, Baron Kant.

This, in Kant’s view, was much more important than other qualities.

If a subordinate was not loyal enough, the greater his ability, the higher Kant’s appointment to him, then once he rebelled, the greater the damage to Kant.

Therefore, among all the qualities, loyalty ranked first.

Among the characters summoned by the system, the heroes’ abilities were undoubtedly the strongest.

This did not mean their combat ability, but their talent.

Every hero had their own unique political views and military thinking. Their vision was very far-sighted compared to ordinary soldiers.

To put it in a more imposing manner, it was about their vision and structure.

Even on the Continent of Caradia, these superior heroes could not be compared to ordinary soldiers or even noble families.

Moreover, most importantly, although the system could not directly level up heroes, they themselves had very strong growth potential.

This growth was formed after they joined Kant’s forces, under the influence of their constant loyalty to Kant, and after a long period of training with Kant’s team.

Simply put, every hero would eventually become a powerful individual under Kant’s command because of their ability to grow.

Their achievements would far surpass their time in the Continent of Caradia.

Of course, not only would heroes grow, but even soldiers would grow as well. However, their growth was more reflected in the advancement of the troop class, increasing their pure combat ability.

Although their knowledge and accomplishments would increase greatly when they were promoted to a high-level up soldier, if they did not continue to level up, they would basically be like that, as though they had already been set in stone.

It was just like how Kant had once sent 10 Sarrandian Horsemen to watch over the spy he had supported, the merchant Borg, a young clan leader of a down and out business clan in the East County.

The 10 Sarrandian Horsemen had almost completely become Borg’s henchmen. Although they were loyal to Kant and did not betray him, they were almost completely toyed with by Borg.

In truth, the strength of the Sarrandian Horseman was not inferior to the level of peak knights in this world. If they were the 10 knights in this world, Borg would only become a puppet in their hands.

However, the outcome made Kant almost disappointed.

Borg not only became a successful businessman in the East County, traded with Dukedom of Leo and the Silver Platter Kingdom with the sugar Kant provided, but he even wanted to betray Kant under the surveillance of the ten Sarrandian Horsemen

Moreover, if Kant did not personally go to Borg’s family, it would be difficult for him to discover this.

Kant didn’t blame the ten Sarrandian Horsemen.

Because he himself had sent them to monitor and intimidate Borg.

However, after that lesson, Kant realized the flaws of these system soldiers.

On the battlefield, they were invincible, but their abilities seemed to be limited on the battlefield. If they were given too complicated a task, they would be at a loss.

Of course, this was not an absolute.

As soldiers leveled up, their own accomplishments in all aspects were astonishing.

When soldiers reached level up to the troop class 5, their performance in other aspects was no less than that of ordinary people.

If they reached level 6, their knowledge was no less than that of some small noble.

Therefore, when Kant replaced the person who was monitoring Borg with five Sarleon Lion Knights, Borg became a loyal dog in his hands.

Borg no longer had any means, nor did he have the strength to stir up any waves.

Even now, when Kant had been directly pushed to the opposite side by the noble and religious sects of this world because of a rumor, Borg, who had once wanted to betray him, still obediently served him.

If Borg dared to make any unusual moves, he would immediately be killed by the Sarleon Lion Knights who were “protecting” him.

His money, connections, and trade routes would immediately be seized by Kant.

Unfortunately, even if a level 6 troop class had the knowledge of a little noble, they were still soldiers. They did not know how to do business at all.

However, this did not delay Kant’s plan. In his empire’s blueprint, these level 6 troop class soldiers were positioned as a little noble and a little lord to enrich his empire’s territory.

Kant knew that these level 6 troop class soldiers were qualified for such positions.

If they were not qualified for higher-level positions, Kant would target the heroes of the “Mount and Blade” world.
