<h4>Chapter 627: In the Blink of an Eye, a Week Had Passed</h4>


    Time flew by like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, another week had passed.


    It was still the same in Drondheim City, operating in an orderly manner. And in the Nahrin Desert, 200 kilometers away, the Jackns and Lizardmen’s excavation of the Lost City had already reached its end.


    Because Kant did not urge and pressure them excessively, the noble families of the South and East County of the Dukedom of Leo left the Leo Empire very calmly. In particr, they took away the civilians in their estate at Kant’s request. To Kant, the civilians of this world were just a burden and needed to be driven away. However, to the lords of the South and East County, these civilians were undoubtedly the most precious wealth.


    As long as there were civilians, even if a lord was weak, there would be a time for him to rise. In this era of low productivity, the number of people represented the strength of productivity, as well as the rise and fall of national power.


    Thus, with Kant’s request, the nobles of the South and East Counties were very happy to leave with the civilians. Even the civilians of the noble estate who had died and lost their inheritance were also divided up by these noble families. For example, the three upper-ss nobles of the South County who had been destroyed by Grand Duke Cameron through the bloodline curse, the civilians in their estate were also divided up by the greedy upper-ss noble families of the South County.


    The entire southern half of the South County, as well as the entire East County, became much more deste after the noble families left with the civilians. It was almost an empty area. In the abandoned castles, there were broken marks everywhere. These were the marks left by the nobles who had plenty of time to remove the expensive iid ornaments. Because they had already decided to abandon the castles, their actions were naturally barbaric and rude.


    Kant did not stay idle either. Construction teams were sent to the South and East Counties to carry out construction. Most of the reputation points that he had umted were spent on elerating the construction speed, which made the South and East Counties develop very quickly. Refugees from the Continent of Caradia were constantly transported over by the system and recruited by Kant as his subjects.


    For this world, the poption was the most important wealth and resource. But for Kant, as long as he had enough territory and built a sufficient number of residential buildings, the system would send refugees from the Continent of Caradia so that he could recruit them. It was precisely because of this that he was able to develop the North County of Lion City and half of the South County in a year.


    Therefore, Kant only needed to follow the way he developed the North County and half of the South County a year ago. As time passed, he would naturally develop the tworge estates that were already empty. After all, whether it was the South or the East Counties, just based on the degree of fertility of theirnd, they couldpletely surpass the North County by eighteen streets. If the North County was able to develop abnormally in Kant’s hands, then the South and East Counties were even more so.


    As time passed, the exploration and mapping teams that Kant had sent out continuously sent news to Drondheim, reporting the boundaries of Kant’s current estate that they had explored and mapped. As for Kant’s draft constitution, was constantly filled and supplemented by professionals, bing more and more perfect. In about half a month, the constitution would bepleted and sessfully promulgated, and the border of Kant’s estate, ording to the current speed, would also bepleted within a month.


    This meant that, if nothing unexpected happened, Kant wouldplete the establishment of the country within a month.


    Kant had yet to use the construction pack of the “Absolute Territory”. He nned to use it in the capital after the construction of the country. In theory, he would build the capital in Drondheim. However, at this time, Drondheim was still in a war crisis. Kant would only use the construction pack of the “Absolute Territory” after the war crisis had subsided.


    Kant valued this “Absolute Territory” very much. From the feedback from the system, this item was also very important.


    In the Council Hall of Drondheim, Kant was having a meeting with the various generals and some high-rankingmanders who were gradually promoted, discussing war-rted matters.


    “Lord, ording to your instructions, our army has already made preparations and can set off at any time tounch a war against the Jackns and Lizardmen,” a high-rankingmander reported the situation of the army to Kant loudly.


    Kant nodded. He did not know what was going on with the Jackns and the Lizardmen. They actually turned a blind eye to the scouts he sent out and allowed his scouts to investigate their progress clearly.


    At this time, the Lost City was almostpletely excavated. Kant had no interest in waiting any longer and nned to take the initiative tounch an attack. He would start moving now. When Kant reached the Lost City, the Jackns and Lizardmen would have finished digging out the Lost City.


    Just as Kant was about to announce the start of the army, a soldier came to report that a death knight hade to visit.


    “Only one death knight?” Kant asked.


    “Yes, my Lord!” the soldier replied respectfully. Then, he stood quietly on the spot, waiting for Kant’s decision to expel, ignore, or summon.


    “Everyone, feel free to discuss why the death knight suddenly came to Drondheim,” Kant thought for a while and asked the seniormanders of the generals.


    He didn’t have any idea, but everyone might be able toe up with something. Maybe that general ormander could guess the purpose of the death knight’s visit. And knowing the other party’s intention, he would be able to deal with it calmly. Of course, this was not the key. Kant’s actions had a deeper meaning.


    Bunduk was the first to notice the long journey of the Jackns and Lizardmen. Among Kant’s six generals, Manid, who was focused on business and expanding Kant’s wealth, and James did not have the experience of leading troops alone. This time, James had be a real general and he was leading a powerful mage army. Among the lords that Kant had summoned, only Bunduk was left.


    Bunduk decided to perform well. Therefore, once Kant’s question came out, Bunduk immediately spoke up.


    “My Lord, I think this death knight must be rted to the Lost City. Their Lost City was just about to be excavated, and this death knight came to visit. There might be a rtionship between the two.”


    Kant nodded. “Perhaps, but what is the rtionship between the death knight’s visit and the Lost City?”
