Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Antipas was on the verge of depression, literally.

The tower collapsed after the black dragon took away part of the Demon God's remains, but this was not good news for the demons, because all of their spells came from blood magic, so there were no high-level professionals in the secular sense.

With the collapse of the tower, many high-level professionals inexplicably appeared on the human side, and now the demons no longer even have an advantage in terms of professionals.

What's more, the demons have now been firmly locked in the East and the eternal permafrost, and they can only survive in the black fog.

The terrifying steel train in the North has begun to be built along the control area of ​​the black fog, and cement roads have been paved around it. Humanity's steel behemoths are beginning to move freely in this world.

If the demons could once use the East Territory as a springboard and live a relatively comfortable life relying on trade in the East Territory, now the entire kingdom is under the control of the North Territory, and normal trade is almost impossible.

The only trade that can be conducted normally is probably sea trade, but sea trade in the Sea of ​​Uncertainty originally depends on the weather. A stable route only means that this route can reach Sauron when the Sea of ​​Uncertainty is in a good mood, which does not mean that this route can really be smooth sailing.

What's more, although the Avars were nominally still trading with the Demons and Anjou at the same time, the Demons' share of this trade was getting smaller and smaller due to the gradually improved blockade in the north.

Originally, he thought that he could still survive after escaping into the black fog, but he did not expect that the Governor of the Northern Territory was so vicious, or that the Governor was so determined to kill the demons. In the throne of the black fog, Antipas opened the map again and looked at the traffic roads built around the black fog marked with red lines.

The North's blockade of the demons was comprehensive. In addition to physically blocking various transportation routes, it also blocked the Avars who had contact with the demons.

Lind directly declared that the East Territory was Capet's territory. The demons cast super-level magic in the East Territory and used black fog to rule the East Territory. This was simply inhumane and a heavy blow must be struck!

All acts of doing business with the demons are considered to be helping the demons and are enemies of the Capetian Kingdom, and will never be forgiven.

The demons had no choice, because now they had one foot in the East Territory. Even the demons, who were always good at manipulating public opinion, could only stammer and say that Princess Claire had promised this land to the demons a long time ago, and then bring up those nobles who had defected to the demons.

Antipas understood that people's hearts were actually very easy to control, and war against humans was just a matter of what people wanted. But now it seemed that the despicable Governor of the Northern Territory had completely grasped people's hearts.

The Avars certainly would not care about Lind's warnings, let alone such diplomatic rhetoric, and continued to trade with the demons indifferently. But Lind soon told the Avars that while the North is still speaking diplomatic rhetoric to you, you'd better cherish it.

Soon the Lars knights engaged in a firefight with the Avars, and the Avars who had come into contact with the demons were almost defeated, and the leading high-ranking knight was hit by Myron's sword, leaving him with psychological trauma.

Not long ago, the Avars, who were still hoping for a lucky break and wanted to block the Castilian group on the coastline, paid their price.

Under such circumstances, even the most greedy merchants gradually began to refuse to trade with the demons, and the demons' share in this maritime trade became smaller and smaller.

Although the Northern Governor did not directly enter the black fog to defeat the demons, the current situation is indeed more uncomfortable than if those Northern troops came directly to defeat the demons. Antipas completely understood what it meant to cut meat with a blunt knife.

Antipas even asked Anjou for help more than once. Antipas, who had never had any strategic vision, rarely began to analyze the situation with Alberto and talked to him in detail. He said that after the demons fell, Anjou would be the next one. How could Anjou not understand the principle of "the lips and teeth are interdependent"?

No matter how you look at it now, supporting the Demons and holding back Capet is the best solution, right?

But Antipas never expected the reply from Anjou.

It’s not that I don’t want to help, but my door is also blocked by a tank.

After receiving this reply, Antipas was full of question marks on his face, and replied angrily: If you don't want to help, then don't help. What do you mean the door is blocked by tanks? Are all of you high-level professionals just here to eat and do nothing?

Antipas was completely helpless. Being blocked by tanks was just an excuse. What Anjou really wanted was probably to monopolize the maritime trade share with the Avars, so he didn't want to take action.

As for the big promises that the Avars painted for Antipas, in reality those Avars were unable to control the dragon at all. The so-called alliance was similar to the alliance between the Avars and the demons, both of which were alliances on paper.

Antipas was now like an abandoned woman, constantly venting his anguish in letters to various forces.

Of course, Antipas did not do nothing. No matter what, the Eastern Territory could not be completely blocked. Moreover, Antipas also ordered those descendants of the demon god to attack in the black fog, causing certain damage and then return to the black fog.

This caused considerable trouble to the North.

As long as the North has no way to pursue deep into the black fog, this tactic may not cause any decisive losses, but it can still annoy the enemy.

As long as the North cannot go deep into the Black Mist to pursue... Antipas couldn't help but think of the North constantly doing some kind of experiment on the edge of the Black Mist, but then Antipas threw this unreliable idea out of his mind. How could it be possible? How could the North go deep into the Black Mist so easily to pursue? Moreover, the Black Mist is so large that even if some people who can resist the Black Mist enter the Black Mist, they will not pose any threat at all.

But Antipas always felt a sense of inexplicable worry in his heart, and it was no use staying here all the time. When a dog is forced into a corner, it will jump over the wall; when a mouse is forced into a corner, it will bite people!

Rather than staying in the black fog and dying a slow death, it is better to use the traditional art of the demon clan - Run!

The reason the demons were able to escape to the eternal frozen land wasn’t because the horses of the Lars family weren’t fast enough.

Antipas turned his attention to the sea. Due to the unremitting efforts of the Northern Governor, the people of this continent knew about the demons' unscrupulous money-making and usury methods, but the other continent was undoubtedly a blue ocean.

What's more, he has something in his hand that can attract the Avars - the holy remains of the demon god.
