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

The Avars were also very puzzled as to why none of those who had gone to Mu Continent ever came back, and they had not seen any of the fleet and dragon that were originally scheduled to return. They heard that there was a demon from Mu Continent in Castile, and that the demon said that Mu Continent had been conquered, and they would return after the dragons and the Avars had completely taken control of the situation.

But the Avars waited and waited but nothing came of it. Even if they wanted to control the situation, they wouldn't fail to send someone back, right?

The Dragon Church of Avar is already planning to ask the dragons for permission to send a new batch of dragons to escort to Mu Continent to check out the situation. After all, no matter what, it is impossible that there is no news at all. Unless they encounter multiple shipwrecks in succession even with the dragons' escort, they should have arrived in Avar by now.

At this time, an Avar soldier was observing the sea near the harbor. Although he was observing, the soldier had already begun to doze off. After all, such a long time had passed and no Avar ships had returned, nor had any dragons been seen. The Avar harbor had already entered a semi-shutdown state, and usually only received some trade ships sailing near the coast of the Sauron continent. However, due to the high tolls, the number of passing ships was decreasing.

But at this moment, the sleepy observer suddenly saw a fleet approaching slowly on the sea in the distance. The observer immediately rang the small bell on the sentry tower. Hearing the ding-dong sound of the bell, a professional quickly walked up to the sentry tower and asked the observer, "Any news about the fleet?"

The observer stared at the fleet on the sea surface with wide eyes and said: "Maybe, maybe not."

"What do you mean by maybe, maybe not?"

The professional was obviously a little anxious. He immediately used detection magic to take a closer look, but suddenly he found his eyes blurry. There were indeed a few ships in the fleet that were Avar ships, but this did not look like an Avar fleet. After all, the blue flag with gold edges on it did not look like an Avar flag no matter how you looked at it. Instead, it looked a bit like the Capetian North flag in the previous intelligence, but not exactly the same. If it were just this flag, it would be fine. Some ships also had the flag of the former Castile.

This professional has never seen the North Wind Bear flag in person, but everyone is very familiar with the flag of Castile.

"Sir, can you see clearly? Is that our fleet?"

The observer nearby asked the professional in front of him cautiously.

"Maybe, maybe not."

The professional muttered quietly, and at that moment, he thought of the so-called orthodox Castiles who were secretly contacting the Avars, hoping to formally cease fire with the Avars and establish a cooperative relationship. But if it was those Castilian fleets, why would they come from the open sea?

And what about that blue flag with gold edges? Could it be that the dragon and the other Avars were defeated in Mu Continent? Did they attack from the Capetian North? No, no, no, that was impossible. That was a dragon.

"Send someone to make contact and have our soldiers board the ship for inspection."

The professional finally decided to make contact no matter what.

As for boarding inspections, the Avars have always been so overbearing that all ships passing through Avar ports must be boarded and inspected by the Avars. Extortion has even become a common practice. Because the Avars are originally powerful and have artillery to support them, those ships shipping along the inland sea have tacitly accepted this behavior. Whenever they pass by, they will specially prepare "red envelopes" for the Avar soldiers.

The Avar ships sailed out quickly, and a professional used amplification magic to shout to the fleet: "Stop, you have entered the port area of ​​the Avar Kingdom. According to the rules, passing ships must be inspected by the Avar Kingdom before they can pass!"

In the fleet, listening to the loud voices of the Avar professionals, Bernice frowned. The Sea of ​​Impermanence was indeed quite dangerous. The fleet encountered a storm on the way. If it weren't for those defensive enchantments, several ships would have sunk halfway. Fortunately, with Regus's escort, no one was injured, but everyone also lost their way.

The gray-robed man's chart pointed out the general direction, but unexpectedly he ended up in Avar territory.

Bernice looked at the trembling Avar captives and said, "Go and explain it to them."

The Avar captive immediately stepped forward and shouted at the bow at the top of his lungs: "We came to the Solon continent to conduct sea trade under the order of Emperor Roll. Everyone, the Avars have been defeated!"

The captive's voice was transmitted to the other party through the magic of the gray robe.

Unexpectedly, the other party was even more confused. Emperor Roll? Who? And judging from his accent, he seemed to be an Avar as well. And why did he say that he was defeated? Who should he listen to?

Bernice said somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Why bother to reason with them? They are just a bunch of Avars. Just let them go. We still have to go to Castile."

The Avar prisoner immediately retreated trembling.

The Avars shouted forcefully, "I don't care which emperor sent you. Even if you are a dragon, you must stop your ship for inspection at our Avar port! Stop your ship first!"

These Avars were used to being powerful, and even though they thought the news of the defeat on Mu Continent might be true, when they saw this fleet that clearly looked like merchant ships, they still wanted to extort money from it first. After all, no matter how strong the other side was, their combat effectiveness would definitely be greatly reduced after crossing the sea.

Hearing this, Bernice looked back at Regus who was eager to try. Well, these Avar people are quite courageous.

"Do you want me to come?"

Obviously, Regus wanted to see if these Avars really dared to come and check the dragons, but Bernice shook her head and said, "No, although most of the Sauron dragons were detained or killed in our place, there should still be many dragons here. We don't know what their attitude is towards you, a dragon from Mu Continent."

Regus curled his lips, looking a little disappointed. Although he was the embodiment of wisdom, Margaret repeatedly reminded Regus to listen to Bernice before leaving.

"Notify all fleets to prepare for battle. If they dare to come, we will fight back. We are already at war with the Avars, so there is no need to worry."

The merchant fleets also made preparations after receiving the order. After all, trading with anyone is trading. The Avars and the Rolle Empire were originally at war. How shameless were these Avars to dare to speak to the emperor's envoy in this way?

Bernice was considered calm and modest in the fleet. Most of these merchants going out to sea were even crazier than Bernice, the special envoy.

These merchants and adventurers were humble in their own country, but they were not afraid of the Avars at all. What's more, there were imperial soldiers and priests on the ship. The merchants didn't even have much interest in Castile. They wanted to directly conquer a piece of imperial land and use it as a port for trade. Well, the Avar port seemed good, but to conquer this port they might have to conquer the entire Avar Kingdom.

Seeing that the other fleet ignored them, the Avars became angry and immediately notified the fleet in the port to prepare for interception.

Rosalin, who heard the noise, also walked out of the cabin, grabbing the corner of her gray robe, looking a little nervous.

"National Master, what are those priests doing?"

Rosaline was a little confused. Shouldn't the soldiers and guards on the ship be in charge of the artillery? Why were the priests taking over the artillery now?

"Oh, I'm praying to the goddess so that the artillery can operate smoothly without malfunctioning and can hit the enemy accurately."

Rosalin, who had studied mechanical principles and rune arrays, looked confused and asked, "Does the goddess of Mu Continent have this business?"

"Originally, there was no such business, but I heard that His Majesty the Emperor went to the Goddess' Kingdom and negotiated with the Goddess, and then this business came into being."
