It was the most important trading city on the Dragon Coast, and with its huge economic power, Simon became the third largest trading power after Sambia and Cormier.
As soon as the day dawned, the commander of the West Gate Sea Patrol Fleet hurriedly walked into the Lord's Mansion at West Gate.
Two women of blood, one on the left and one on the right, walked up the hall surrounded Anna Simon, the current manager of Simon's day-to-day affairs and the true leader of the trading city.
"Commander Sidmun, did your patrol fleet find anything?" Anna asked.
"Yes, since last night, our patrol fleet has successively intercepted a number of noble ships that have escaped from Cormier, I have roughly counted, there are about 100 large and small ships, and the number may increase after the day......"
The middle-aged general bowed his head respectfully.
"Oh?"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Anna Simon's mouth, "It seems that Susar's coup d'Γ©tat has finally come to an end." β
The location of Ximen is very special, guarding the passage from Longhu to the Falling Star Inland Sea, so in history, whether it is Komir of the Purple Dragon Kingdom or Sambia, the attitude towards Ximen is mainly to win over alliances.
In other words, if the two countries wanted the sea lanes to be unimpeded, they had to gain Simon's friendship.
"What should we do with these noble ships?" The middle-aged general asked cautiously.
Simon's openness even surpasses Waterdeep, being open to all races and to all faiths.
"There's everything, there's a price for everything."
This sentence describes the cityscape of Ximen.
The hasty seizure of these noble ships may set off a wave of public opinion that is not good for the city. Middle-aged generals don't want to be impeached and lose their positions and titles.
"Seize first." Anna saw the middle-aged general's concern and smiled lightly, "I bear the responsibility." β
"Yes."
The middle-aged general bowed his head.
At this time, another guard reported that a scout of the watchtower was half-kneeling outside the door of the hall and reported: "A fleet of unknown origin has been found off the coast of the West Gate!" β
"Fleet?" Anna was stunned, "Did the other party show the flag?" β
"Yes, very strange flag, with a canopy in the middle, a few stars in the canopy, a purple magic blade on the left and a long sword on the right......"
"Rock Collar!" Anna subconsciously said the power that the flag represented.
"Rock Collar?" The middle-aged general was stunned, "When did they have a fleet?" β
Anna said lightly: "The rock collar and the Ipgir family, a month ago, established a naval dock in Irip, and the Ipgil transferred back a fleet in the inland sea, and mobilized craftsmen to build a new batch of large warships. β
"Then our attitude ......"
"I may know the leader of the fleet, come with me to see it, Admiral Sidmun."
β¦β¦
There was a riot at the West Gate Pier.
Standing on the pier and looking out at the sea at the end of the sky, you can vaguely see rows of large warships and flags.
There was a lot of talk, and a group of worried fleeing nobles gathered on the deck of the Cormier nobles' ships, which had been moored at the dock.
"Damn, why didn't Simon Pier give us a pass!" A nobleman vented his curses, and had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Maybe we should get off the boat right away!"
The organic nobles hurriedly took some valuable belongings and quietly disembarked with a few henchmen, but unexpectedly, a large group of soldiers of the regular army of Ximen suddenly poured into the dock, completely sealing off the berth area.
Moreover, in the crowd of onlookers, there were quietly more shadows of blood, and they lurked, closely monitoring the Cormier nobles on the docks.
Soon there was an uproar from the crowd.
"Archon Anna!"
The commoners spontaneously knelt down, and the nobles and professionals retreated to the side of the road, bowing their heads in respect.
Anna Simon didn't wait long at the docks, and a five-story white skeleton warship flying the Rock Collar flag slowly docked at Simon Harbor.
Several groups of warriors from the Ipugir family dropped the gangway and stood neatly on both sides of the gangway, followed by Alamil, the commander of the fleet, Charles and Ingrid, who traveled with the fleet, and finally a mysterious woman in a black cloak.
"We'll meet again, Charles." Anna Simon stepped forward.
"Ms. Anna." Charles nodded, glancing over the corrobor-walled noble fleet on the other side of the docks, "I think Lady Anna should know what we're here for. β
He pulled out an official document bearing the coat of arms of the Cormier royal family.
"This is a notice of arrest by the Cormier royal family, I am the envoy of the regent Princess Yarusail and the new monarch Friel, and the navy of Susar and Mashama is in the process of changing blood, so I have to activate the combined fleet of Rock Collar and Ypgil."
Anya took the paperwork, flipped through it casually, and handed it to the dock officer who was following her.
"Simon is happy to work with Cormier to apprehend those who are traitors." Anna smiled.
Hearing this, Charles also smiled.
In essence, Simon and Cormier have no conflict of interest, and Simon's official cooperative attitude is also expected.
"General Sidmund, you go and assist His Excellency the Baron in capturing the fleeing Cormier nobles, and send additional patrol fleets to closely control the sea, and bring all other Cormier ships back to the port for inspection." Anna commanded.
So Charles followed the middle-aged general and left temporarily.
Ingrid followed like a shadow.
Anna looked at the mysterious woman in her black cloak for the last time.
"My sister, you are finally willing to set foot on the land of Simon again." Anna sighed, "Come with me." Mother and little sister miss you too. β
"Now I'm the Twilight Lord of Cormier, not the vampire princess of Simon." A deep female voice came from under the black robe.
"You are already a legend, mother can't do anything to you, you have freedom, why don't you want to return to the family and rebrand the mark of Simon?" Anna stared at her.
"I have a wider sky, why should I be branded with Simon again?" The Twilight Lord laughed, "She wants to be a god, but I don't." I prefer a peaceful life to immortality. β
The Twilight Lord took the initiative to end the topic and said, "What about Mahi? I've heard that she's grown a lot......"
"She has taken her revenge and defeated the Son of the Night who humiliated her in the first place." Anna Dao.
"I'm going to meet Mahi. Also, don't tell my mother that I've been back, I don't want to see her. β
Anna smiled, "I don't know where Mahi went, but when she waits at the docks, she will take the initiative to show up, because Mahi also wants to see someone." β
The arrest lasted a whole morning.
The Cormier nobles who defected were taken to a special transport ship by a group of expressionless Ipujir warriors, and as for the nobles' guards and mercenaries, some tried to resist, but after being slaughtered by the Charr on the spot, these professionals became honest, handcuffed their hands and feet, squatting or sitting on the deck, next to the Ipuji warriors who watched them vigilantly.
Anna shook her head as Rock led the fleet away.
Mahi walked away again. Hopefully, my mother won't be angry when she hears the news. β
