Chapter 417: The Construction of the Water Bandit Lair

The village of the Kingdom of Nords.

Kant was slightly stunned, but he looked at the council hall that had already appeared beside the hill. It was made entirely of wood and a few pieces of stone. At the corner, there was cornices with a ocean style, just like a long boat.

The Nords had crossed the sea. Initially, they had come to the Continent of Caradia in the form of water bandits and pirates.

At first, they had brought a lot of trouble to the original Caradia Empire.

Slowly, their population increased.

More and more Nords knew that there was still the Continent of Caradia outside their mainland, they crazily organized fleets and formed expeditionary fleets in the name of Kingdom of the Nords. They came to this pure land in a mighty way.

They launched a surprise attack on the unprepared and defenseless Caradia Empire.

The attack came from the ocean and rivers.

They defeated the ancient Caradia Empire.

Even the capital of the Caradia Empire had been seized by the Nords, becoming the capital of the Kingdom of Nords, the present-day Sargoth.

However, the Kingdom of Caradia also fell into a split. The Vaegirs also crossed the Great Snowy Mountains and arrived at the Continent of Caradia, starting a war with the newly split Kingdom of Swadia.

However, it was also worth celebrating. Very quickly, the two enemies of the Kingdom of Swadia began to view each other as enemies.

The Nord and Vaegirs began a bloody battle.

Just as the main forces of the two kingdoms converged in Reyvadin, they fought on the city walls for several days.

Countless people died in the battle. Even the highest commander sent by the Nord Empire to the Continent of Caradia was dead. In the end, they had no choice but to withdraw from Reyvadin, ceding control of the city to the Kingdom of Swadia.

This battle had also caused the expedition army of the Nord Empire to officially break away from their control and declare independence on the Continent of Caradia.

They had established the famous Kingdom of Nords.

However, the impact of the battle was rather deep.

The main forces of the two countries had almost completely annihilated each other. The mutual hostility between them had also allowed the Kingdom of Swadia to complete its regrouping.

They had regrouped. Although they were not as glorious as the previous Caradia Empire, they were still at the center of the continent, possessing the vast majority of fertile lands and cities. They were still beginning to radiate new vitality.

The six countries were temporarily at peace, but danger lurked everywhere. There was constant friction in the dark.

If any contradictions were to be triggered again, the flames of war would be ignited again.

However, the war would not continue to appear for the time being.

This was because Kant’s reputation had already spread throughout the entire Continent of Caradia. From the elderly to the children, from the king to the peasant, everyone already knew about this supreme lord from the Land of Miracles. The glory that shone like the sun.

The soldiers were able to die for Kant and obtain the supreme honor.

The commoners were able to live under Kant’s rule with incomparable joy and happiness.

They were all die-hard loyalists.

The Nords who came here were the same. They looked at their surroundings that had been turned upside down. It was no longer the swampy and low-lying area beside the sea. Their faces were filled with surprise and joy.

When they saw Kant, they instantly understood everything and quickly came over to greet him.

“Great Supreme Lord!” the ten Nord peasants bowed.

If it weren’t for the fact that they didn’t worship on their knees and weren’t qualified to use the half-kneeling ceremony that only nobles and knights could use, they would have already used the highest respect they could think of to salute Kant.

However, Kant didn’t care. He calmly said, “Alright, I’m glad that you guys are here.”

“It’s our honor.”

They answered excitedly.

A small interlude.

The construction of the village could be done at an extremely fast speed.

Kant had already gotten used to it. As he communicated with the system in his mind, he immediately used this council hall as the center. Blurry white lines appeared in front of his eyes. They were all the outlines of the buildings that had been planned beforehand.

About 100 Nord traditional houses were neatly arranged around the council hall.

There was also the city wall.

It directly encircled all the houses, hills, and some small rivers.

According to Kant’s plan, with the river as the boundary, the east side was the residential area, and the west side was the military area. After the fortress wall or castle was built, the area would be directly expanded to cover all the surrounding areas.

This was the border between the East County and the Wildland on the west side.

The terrain was flat.

But it was unusually desolate.

No matter how Kant encircled the land, it did not matter.

After all, from here to the east, it would require more than three hours of house riding to reach here from the nearest farm around. This was enough to tell the distance. After all, it would not take more than ten minutes to ride a horse to the riverbank of the Resniston River.

“Build the Water bandit lair!”

Kant’s mind did not stop.

As his mind continued to communicate with the system, the golden card in his mind suddenly shattered into golden light.

It floated in the outside world and condensed in the military zone on the west side of the river. Soon, a prototype of a building appeared on the riverbank. It was about two stories tall, but its length was about 50 meters, similar to the long houses of the Nordic people on Earth.

But it was completely inappropriate to say that it was a building.

Because it was right on the river.

There was a 50-meter long and 20-meter-wide bend on the river bank.

There was also a well-built dock on it. There were three of them. It seemed that they could dock six long ships. Even Kant’s impression, it could dock three of the biggest merchant ships on the Resniston River.

But this was the dock where the warships were docked.

This was the lair of the water bandits.

The vicious water bandits who once roamed the Kingdom of Nords.

They came and went like the wind in their paddling warships, rampaging in the river. They even went deep into the hinterland of the Continent of Caradia, causing great harm to the Kingdom of Swadia, the Kingdom of Nords, and even the Kingdom of Vaegirs in the deepest part of the continent.

These vicious, greedy Nord Water Bandits did not know what a country and race was.

In addition, there were other local bandits joining in.

It was almost a disaster.

Initially, they were still under the control of the expedition fleet of the Nord Empire.

They even acted as guides for the expedition fleet, destroying the most prosperous town, Zendar. However, as the expedition army of the Nord Empire fought with the Kingdom of Vaegirs in Reyvadin City. Both sides suffered heavy losses, and their commanders died in battle.

This group of water bandits was like a warhorse that had lost its reins, completely free and plunged into the darkness.

They became bandits that were unstable in several kingdoms!

[ Water bandits’lair ]

The system provided detailed information on the buildings.

Kant raised his eyebrows slightly. This was a pleasant surprise. He did not expect that this [ Water bandit lair ] could actually build two types of warships while recruiting water bandits. This clearly guaranteed that he could directly extend his force into the Resniston River in the future!
