Chapter 5: An Oasis in the Lake (3)

In a relaxed and happy mood, the warship anchored at the dock on the shore, and the group carried goods and horses from the ship, while Ao Xingfeng closed his eyes and enjoyed the fresh air around him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

No sooner had they closed their eyes and enjoyed nature than a group of Templars stepped out of the depths of the island with solemn steps.

Tarot exchanged a few words with the Templars in charge, and the group of Templars immediately fell to their knees on one knee solemnly.

"I look forward to the arrival of the Holy Envoy. ”

"Excuse me, let's help unload the ship's supplies, I can't wait to see this beautiful place." Ao Xingfeng said with a light in his eyes.

"Yes, my lord, I will tell you that our oasis in the lake is really the most enviable place in the entire desert, and I will allow you to show you the scenery of the island in person. Tarot said respectfully.

"Well, then you're welcome. "It's not bad to change the mood at all, not to mention the bad weather in the previous trip, and it's easy to get lost, and people's mood will naturally be a lot lower, but after seeing such a beautiful place again, the previous depression and depression are swept away.

With the addition of new Templars, the unloading of supplies was much faster, and there was a peculiar place in the oasis in the lake, where there was rarely wind in the desert, and when it did, there would be sandstorms, but here the light breeze blew on the people with the cool smell of the lake, dissipating the heat after the people were tired, and bringing a fresh and pleasant mood.

"You guys really don't know where you're stationed, it's really enjoyable to live in such a beautiful place. On the way, Ao Xingfeng sat in the carriage and said to Tarot, who was riding a horse beside him.

"Your Excellency, your presence has made us shine even more. Tarot clenched his fists and complimented.

"Marlin, how are you preparing. Ao Xingfeng shifted the target of the conversation and said to Ma Lin in the carriage behind him.

"Holy Envoy, I don't know exactly how many Knights Templar are here, but I've prepared 50 envelopes. As he spoke, Ma Lin took out a large stack of envelopes and showed them to Ao Xingfeng in a thick layer.

"So many?" said Ao Xingfeng in surprise.

"Actually, I'm afraid I'm going to be less prepared, after all, I've heard that half of the Knights Templar has arrived, and except for those who have to stay at their posts, in fact, all the Templars who can be mobilized have come. Marin said with some distress.

Ao Xingfeng couldn't answer for a while, but he estimated the number of Templars who came to escort him, you must know that a letter should be sent to at least one knight chief, and there are 500~700 Templars under the command of a normal knight chief, and 50 letters are counted as the lowest number, even if all the people who come are knight chief ranks, there are only 500 people under each knight commander, and that is more than 25,000 people! This is not an ordinary army, but 25,000 well-trained elite Templars!

"This...."Ao Xingfeng was stunned.

"The Holy Envoy is our hope, as long as it is up to you, the Holy See will definitely be on the next level!" said Marin, kneeling in the carriage and respectfully.

The convoy stopped, and the Templars saluted Ao Xingfeng sincerely.

"Thank you for your kindness! Don't talk big, within the scope of my ability, I will do my best to help the Holy See, leaving no effort behind!" Ao Xingfeng was moved by everyone's sincerity, and patted his chest and promised.

The oasis island in the lake is not big, it is not small, it is almost the size of Finney City, and it is more than enough to accommodate less than 1,000 Templars, so there are many wild animals living outside the Templar station, fish, birds, beasts, and insects, so it can be said that the oasis in the lake is a complete ecosystem, even if it does not rely on the monthly living supplies of the Holy See, this Templar can comfortably stay on the island for a lifetime.

This huge lake contains countless rich fish products, what is more surprising is not the huge size of the lake but its depth, until now there have been countless strong people trying to explore the bottom of the lake, but all failed, so how deep this lake is so far no one can say, and some people say that the low end of this lake is hell, although most people only think it is a joke, but it can be seen that this lake is also full of magic.

The convoy did not travel long before arriving at the camp of Plumton, a stone fortress made of solid stone, surrounded by a wall 5 meters high and 3 meters thick, and the interior was fully equipped with all kinds of facilities, that is, the so-called sparrows were small and complete.

"I'm afraid you're tired from traveling on the road, so I'll take you to rest. Tarot walked up to Ao Xingfeng as soon as he got off his horse and said.

"Although I really want to see the whole picture of the oasis as soon as possible, I really can't hold it anymore. Ao Xingfeng replied with a smile, and under the leadership of Tarot, everyone entered the inside of the fortress.

The safety of the Templar camp, coupled with the unique geographical nostalgia of the oasis in the lake, there was no threat at all, and in such a place, Ao Xingfeng let down his guard and finally slept peacefully, without worrying about the pagan assassins at night.

On the other hand, after arriving at the fortress, Marin immediately found Duolun, who was familiar with the environment, tied all the prepared letters to the paws of the carrier pigeon, and released them.

Time flies quickly, in a blink of an eye it is the dead of night, Ao Xingfeng got up from the bed, through the window you can see the refreshing night scenery outside, the moonlight is sparkling on the lake, a breeze blows on the treetops, with the branches gently swaying, the birds of the night call a unique song, and the tiny insect chirping on the grass makes the whole lake oasis full of business.

"The magic of nature is really amazing. Looking at the sand dunes farther away, Ao Xingfeng sighed. Originally, the night in the desert is very cold, but the oasis in the lake is different, and the climate and scenery are unique to summer.

Ao Xingfeng sat quietly on the windowsill, enjoying this kind of undisturbed and peaceful time, while looking at the relaxing scenery.

However, when Ao Xingfeng paid attention to the distant desert, those vague black shadows were like ghosts, wandering around the desert strangely, completely different from the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere of the oasis in the lake.

Push open the door and walk down the hall.

Except for a few Templars who were drinking and chatting with each other, everyone had gone back to their rooms to sleep.

"Holy Envoy!" Several Templars, who were still drinking, saw Ao Xingfeng coming down the stairs from the second floor, hurriedly put down their wine glasses, and fell to one knee in a panic.

"Don't worry, there's really no tension on such a harmonious island, I can understand that. Ao Xingfeng knew that the Templars were not allowed to drink alcohol while on duty, but this oasis in the lake could really be regarded as an exception, it seemed to be completely different from the entire continent, only here enjoyed true peace and tranquility, and whoever came to such an environment would be liberated from the impetuous mind.
