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

Chapter 468: The Diplomatic Mission and the Empire

Today, the shipping routes between Mu Continent and Sauron Continent have become completely stabilized, and the first batch of officials who came here also have the rare opportunity to return to the empire to report on their work.

This was mainly because they had to bring back a group of nobles who were difficult to deal with, such as the Avars and the Church of the Dragon.

René walked off the boat with his maid Saphira, stretched his body, and said to his brother beside him: "The Empire's ships are really becoming more and more stable. I think we vomited a lot when we first came here."

Alan also chimed in, "It's probably because there are fewer sea monster attacks. There are no longer as many sea monster attacks along the way as there were in the beginning."

The two brothers walked towards the coastal pass, talking to each other, while Saphira followed Alan's maid, looking at this legendary continent and empire nervously and curiously.

After checking everyone's luggage and confirming their identities at the checkpoint, they got on the carriage and prepared to leave.

Of course, there are magic cars. After the war, troop carriers have been decentralized to civilian use, and the civilian versions no longer pursue military changes. Instead, they develop in the direction of comfort. But after all, it is just the beginning, and supporting facilities have just begun to be built. Although there are cars on the roads of the empire now, for shorter distances, horse-drawn carriages are still the main means of transportation.

After the carriage had been driving for a while, Saphira looked out of the window curiously, only to find that the empire was not quite what she had imagined. There did not seem to be as many tall buildings as she had imagined.

Nor were there the so-called forests of concrete and steel that René described.

However, people do observe etiquette and order very much, and people queuing can be seen everywhere.

"Master, why are there so few houses on the road? Where do you usually live?"

"What are you talking about? We haven't even left the harbor yet."

......

When old Pierre saw his two sons with two foreign maids, he silently stretched out his hand, and the servants behind him immediately handed them a whip. René and Alain were so scared that they hurriedly explained that it was a gift from Lord Sean, which stopped old Pierre's urge to whip.

"You're not pregnant, are you?"

"No, no."

Seeing his two nervous sons, old Pierre felt a little sorry, but finally returned to the point and said, "Just answer truthfully when you report to His Majesty. Don't hide anything, okay? Don't have any ulterior motives."

The two brothers also nodded repeatedly.

At the round table meeting the next day, the two brothers who were waiting to see the emperor and report on their work looked at the Avar delegation not far away.

They came to represent the Avars who had invaded the continent before to formally surrender, in order to show goodwill to the empire. This was a very important decision, and it was normal to be nervous, but it seemed that the envoys had very serious dark circles under their eyes, as if they had not slept all night.

This was indeed the case. This delegation made the same mistake as Saphira, mistaking the seaport for a city of the empire, and mistaking the port city of the empire for the imperial capital. It was not until the moment they boarded the train that they realized that what they saw was just a more developed seaport of the empire.

Although the Avar envoys came to surrender, there are skills in surrendering, such as proposing more favorable conditions for themselves. After all, they have surrendered and want to belong to the empire and become a vassal of the empire, so some rewards are always necessary.

However, this little thought of making conditions disappeared after arriving in the imperial capital.

The gap in strength was too great. Yesterday, the Avar delegation wandered around the imperial capital in a daze. They were just thankful that they did not listen to those lunatics and use super-level magic recklessly.

But at the same time, the delegation also felt unprecedented loss and helplessness. No one knew what the delegation was thinking all night, but no one in the delegation could sleep. No one knew whether it was the neon lights at night that stung the eyes of the Avar delegation, or the vehicles on the avenue that made the Avar delegation confused.

Especially after arriving at the newly built palace, although this palace is not magnificent and is filled with plain pragmatism everywhere, in terms of land area and appearance, it is not even as good as the palaces built by the "benevolent kings of Sauron" on the Sauron continent who levied heavy taxes, but in the palace there are fantastic equipments that the envoys have never seen before, even the toilets are fully automatic.

Moreover, the empire was not great because of its magnificent palace, but the palace was great because of the empire. Even if this palace did not have any equipment that was ahead of its time, it was enough to instill fear in the Avar envoys.

When it was the Avar delegation's turn, the representatives of the delegation tremblingly handed over the surrender terms that had been revised overnight.

Linde was surrounded by meritorious civil officials and military generals. These people seemed to know that the Avars were coming today, so they all wore their medals and dressed very formally. You should know that even the clothes of the civil officials were modified from military uniforms. The sense of oppression created by the founding ministers was extremely great. The representative who submitted the surrender letter felt as heavy as a thousand pieces of gold after just two steps. In the end, it was the nun beside Linde who handed Linde the Avars' surrender letter.

After taking a quick look, Lind sighed, threw the surrender letter back, and said, "Rewrite it."

The Avar envoys were so frightened that they immediately knelt down, especially the Avar representative, who tremblingly took back the letter of surrender.

"I accept the decree."

Some Avar nobles who once killed people for fun in the continent of Sauron almost urinated in this palace. It can be said that the envoys are now just holding back their desire to survive.

After only two glances at the letter of surrender, Lind knew that the Avars had not yet figured out the situation. The reason he was still willing to give the Avars a decent surrender was simply because he was afraid that the Avars would be forced into a corner and use super-level magic to pollute the environment. The empire did not need vassal states now. After all, with the current technology, wherever a railway was built, that place would be the territory of the empire.

In addition, there is no strong concept of nation on the continent of Sauron, so planning can be done slowly. After all, everyone is a brother in distress who is blocked in the same area and their cultures are relatively similar.

Lind then met with other officials who had returned from Solon and listened to their performance reports.

It seems that Sean is living quite well on the continent of Sauron, and his old problem of indecision has not recurred, or there is nothing on the continent of Sauron that can make Sean indecisive.

The Goddess Cult was also spreading smoothly, especially the three Castiles that were originally controlled by the Holy See of Darkness, who could seamlessly integrate the faith of the Goddess.

It’s just that the believers in those three areas are a little crazy and must be guided onto the right path. From this perspective, it may be more troublesome than those places where faith is weak.

With Lind's assistance, 550C gradually extended its control to the continent of Sauron. At least before 550C fell into sleep next time, the empire would usher in rapid development and complete the final unification.
