After Randall returned to his home, he found that Randerson had not returned.

He didn't want to worry about his son, so he went back to his room to meditate.

On the first day, the old servant would still visit outside the door.

This has become a habit developed by the old servant. He will not interrupt his master's meditation, but if his master has any instructions, he will give them to him.

The next day, the old servant didn't show up again.

When the third day was approaching, Randall suddenly picked up the sword in his hand.

He felt many auras appearing around him, several of which belonged to the Duke-level vampires.

....

In the quiet courtyard, the sound of "zheng" and "dang" sword blades clashing suddenly sounded.

But it soon returned to calm.

....

At this time, in the queen's room on the top floor of Zhuye Castle, two vampire maids were reading the documents in their hands at the same time.

And a petite figure was sitting at the desk, listening to the different sounds coming from the left and right with two ears, and staring at the third document in his hand with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

Abel is using this method to handle the accumulated government affairs at three times the speed of ordinary people.

These are the costs of running away to play.

Because of this, she completely forgot about her appointment with Randall.

That day, Randall did not appear at Zhuye Castle either.

————————

In the early morning, the port outside the city of Romulus was already very noisy. Several merchant ships waiting to cross the strait were anchored by the pier, waiting for joint inspection by the Romulus Chamber of Commerce and the Inquisition.

Only after passing the inspection and paying the toll fee can these ships be granted the right to pass through the strait.

At this time, a medium-sized cargo ship slowly sailed into a special berth on the trestle.

On a ship waiting for inspection, several bored sailors looked at the medium-sized cargo ship from the cabin and smiled disdainfully.

"This must be a chick that hasn't been to the sea a few times."

Everyone knows that the Inquisition is difficult to deal with. If you want to pass through the strait before sunset, the inspection must be completed in the morning. Therefore, maritime merchants who make a living on this route know that they have to pack their goods in the early morning and queue up for inspection.

If it is delayed until the afternoon, even the fastest light sailing ship will not be able to pass through the strait before sunset. In that case, it will have to dock in the port of Romulus for one night and set off again at dawn the next day.

But in this case, you will have to pay high parking fees and accommodation fees that are purely deceptive.

Because the accommodation fee is paid according to the number of seafarers, but the port does not allow seafarers to disembark, that is to say, the seafarers eat and live on their own ships, and they have to pay the port accommodation fee.

And if you still insist on going to sea after the time has passed, you are risking your life.

Because the visibility is not good at night, there is not only the risk of running aground on the rocks and getting lost, but there are also some scary legends.

One of the most bizarre legends is that of the undead running on the sea.

It is said that in ancient times, the east and west continents were originally connected together, and there used to be a country next to Romulus at the Strait of Romulus.

Tus, the main god of the Cross, sent his followers to spread the gospel to the people of this country, but unexpectedly they were barbaric and crazy. They crucified Tus's followers and mocked Tus as a false god.

In order to punish this country, Tus split the continent with a giant sword, poured seawater into the Strait of Romulus, and buried these rebels.

It is said that the ghosts of those who have been buried in the sea will appear at night, riding huge horses on the sea and attacking passing ships.

Because of this legend, no one dares to pass through the Strait of Romulus at night.

"It looks like we will be the last group to sail today." An experienced sailor stood by the side of the ship, looked at the inspector on the ship in front of him, and came to a conclusion.

Because the front ship seems to have checked contraband, this will delay some time.

"Can only three ships pass today? That's a good thing. Our goods may be sold at a higher price."

A sailor expressed optimistic thoughts.

At this time, the sailor standing next to the ship suddenly shouted: "Why did the heretic inquisitor board the 'young' ship first?"

His statement immediately attracted the attention of several other sailors. They all got out of the cabin and looked at the medium-sized cargo ship not far away.

"No one from the Chamber of Commerce is here? Only the Inquisitor? Did someone commit something wrong on that ship?"

"Maybe."

The sailors looked at the situation on the ship from a distance, and saw the Inquisitor in red just standing beside the side of the ship, while the people on the ship took out a volume of documents for the Inquisitor to read.

"That's not right. If we are arresting heretics, it's impossible for the judge to go up alone!"

When the sailors were feeling strange, the heretic inquisitor nodded and returned the document to the sailors.

Then, the Inquisitor actually disembarked from the ship and made a "pass" gesture to the guards at the port.

"Is it fake? It was released without inspection? Is the Pope's sister-in-law on board that ship?"

"Shut up! Be careful not to let the Inquisitor listen!"

Several sailors watched in amazement as the medium-sized cargo ship, which they regarded as a "baby", slowly weighed anchor, turned, and then sailed out of the port.

"What is the origin of that ship? It doesn't look like a Crusader warship by looking at the flag? Why did it pass without inspection?"

"So, it must be from the Pope..."

"Don't hold us back if you want!"

.....

An hour later, when their ship came for inspection, the sailors found out what happened.

Of course, the sailors did not dare to ask the Heretic Inquisitor. They found an opportunity to ask the people from the Romulus Chamber of Commerce who assisted the Heretic Inquisitor in the inspection.

"Brother, what happened to that medium-sized cargo ship before? Why didn't they need to be inspected?"

"Don't mind your own business, just mind your own business." The person from the Chamber of Commerce replied angrily.

The sailor who asked the question did not give up and quietly handed over a bottle of rum.

In this way, the people from the Chamber of Commerce looked better.

"Okay, don't go out and talk nonsense." He whispered in the sailor's ear and said, "Did you see the flag on that ship? That's Cypler's merchant ship."

"Sepler? That's not the one who rebels against God..."

"Hush, keep your voice down. Those who rebel against God will be punished soon. His Majesty the Pope has also specially granted them permission to pass through the strait without inspection."

"Really? Then can we get a Cypler flag..."

"Don't think about it. The ship must not only have the flag of Sepler, but also a certification document issued by the Sepler Development Association. Only with these two things can you pass through the strait without inspection."

"I see."

"Remember, don't go out and talk nonsense."

"Yes, yes."

After the inspectors got off the ship, the sailor couldn't wait to tell the captain the news.

Then, this information, which was exchanged for a bottle of rum, was sold for a high price of ten gold coins within a few days.
