Unknown Knight

Just as the enemy and our side were fighting fiercely in front of the palace gate, the captain on duty at the palace gate discovered a problem, that is, the time for the Sultan's guards to enter the palace had seriously exceeded the time limit.

They have established rules for overtime situations. If there is any special situation and it is necessary to delay leaving the palace, it is not impossible. The patrol team only needs to send a member to the palace gate in advance to report to him.

But now it was already past half an hour, and the patrol team member who reported in was not seen. The captain on duty felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered the palace gate to be closed, and ran to the barracks with a dozen prophet guards on duty.

As soon as they arrived at the barracks, they naturally quickly discovered the patrol members who had been killed by the Mamluks.

The captain on duty, knowing that something was wrong, immediately blew the alarm horn and led his men to rush to the most important Sultan's bedroom.

The fighting in the bedroom was fierce. Although the five Prophet's Guards were heavily armored and not afraid of the Mamluks' siege, they began to lose strength under their desperate siege. Some of them were hit by the short-handled iron bones and were spitting blood.

The Mamluks who were besieging them were now in a desperate situation. Knowing that they were going to die anyway, they attacked with all their might and risked their lives.

They were already numerous and powerful, and under such a desperate attack, they caused considerable damage to the five prophet guards. The situation was very bad.

At this moment, the troops led by the captain on duty finally arrived, and the situation in front of the bedroom immediately reversed.

Without the advantage in numbers, these thin-skinned Mamluks, who were only armed with short weapons, could not defeat the fully armed "tanks" no matter how high their martial arts skills or how rich their combat experience were, let alone the "tanks" formed in arrays. They were quickly suppressed.

The entire battle was very short, lasting only less than five minutes. Only after the battle was over did Niza, who was wearing armor, and Aix, who lived next to the bedroom, hurried over.

After some investigation and interrogation, the truth of the whole matter soon came to light, which made Aix, Niza and others break out in cold sweat after learning about the situation.

Niza and Aix lived not far from each other. If it were not for the professionalism and effectiveness of the Prophet's guards, Sharif's plan might have succeeded, and Aix and Niza would have lost their lives.

Through this incident, the value of this group of Prophet Guards was also reflected, and Aix, who was considering how to properly disband these Prophet Guards, immediately gave up the idea.

Although he always believed that these Prophet Guards were "shackles" that restricted his freedom, but when weighing it against his own lives, having such a "shackle" was not a bad thing. There is always a price to pay for every gain.

Not long after the assassination attempt by the lurking Mamluks, the political situation in Sarande gradually returned to stability, and Aix was now preparing to return to Vigia.

Although it was a pity that the third and fifth princes escaped, the hunt for them had never stopped. It was just that the sea of ​​sand was so vast that it was difficult to catch them in a short time.

Especially the fifth prince Sharif. Aix and he are old rivals. After several confrontations, Aix feels that he is the most likely one to challenge Niza's dominance in Sarand in the future.

However, these two princes are now rootless. Although they still have some Mamluks at their disposal, which pose a considerable threat to the personal safety of people in some places, this threat is nothing to the entire political situation of Sarand.

Aix also believed that as time went by, they would eventually disappear in the vast sea of ​​sand.

After all, Sarand is a desert country, and oases with water sources are basically owned by someone, unlike the inland of Calradia in the west, where people can settle down anywhere.

Each of the two princes brought with them several hundred Mamluks. The daily consumption of these people was huge, and even ordinary nobles with large territories and tens of thousands of subjects would find it difficult to afford so many cavalrymen, not to mention their rootless and footless situation. They would not be able to wander around in the uninhabited desert for long.

Without support, most of the Mamluks who followed the two princes would eventually choose to disperse because they could not bear it.

Even if there are a very small number of die-hard followers who continue to follow the two princes, they can only follow them in the desert, drinking bitter water and eating sand, and eventually become desert bandits who make a living by looting.

And Aix did not let the two princes wander in the desert. A team of elite light cavalry carefully selected from the army was formed.

This light cavalry unit consisted of 500 men, all of whom were well-equipped and experienced in desert warfare. Each of them was also equipped with two horses, and they were specifically sent to hunt down the two princes in suspicious areas where they were roaming.

I believe that before long, the remaining forces of the two princes will eventually dissipate in the vast yellow sand due to internal and external difficulties.

However, before returning to Vigia, Aix still had an important thing to do, which was to excavate the Dizzy Valley near Migayed.

As early as when he first arrived in the valley, Aix had a guess. Combined with what Afanti had said before, Aix believed that the Dizziness Valley had a great origin and that the secrets of the Dark Cult might be buried underneath. He might even be able to figure out the ins and outs of this so-called Dark Cult.

When Nana's AI was being trained by him to be closer and closer to human thinking, Aix also asked the core processor questions about the valley.

From Nana, Aix learned that twenty meters at the bottom of the valley, there was an energy transmission device with advanced technology, which should store huge amounts of energy.

However, the energy transmission device seemed to have some kind of firewall setting. Nana only had the authority to receive energy and had no idea what was underneath.

Combining Afanti's description in his original recollection and comparing it with the terrain of the entire Vertigo Valley, Aix believed that what was buried under the Vertigo Valley was extraordinary. It was very likely a crash site of an alien spacecraft, or at least a large base of some prehistoric civilization.

There must be a lot of extraordinary high-tech among them, which will give him the technological power to crush this era, thus helping him to speed up the end of the chaos on this continent.

Even if he could figure out the mystery of his time travel, there might be a chance for him to return to his original world, although he might not be willing to do so now.

He had this idea a long time ago, but Sarande belonged to someone else's forces before. If a large-scale excavation was carried out near Migayed, it would be an impossible task.

Not only is it difficult to recruit a large number of people to carry out the excavation, but such a huge project will definitely make a lot of noise, which may alarm the surrounding lords. If you are not careful, your hard work may end up being wasted on others.

Now the entire Salander is basically under his control, the conditions are ripe, and it is time to start this large-scale revelation project.
