At the mention of this, Teresa frowned slightly, and her expression was a little hesitant.It seems to have brought bad news, and it is difficult to speak."
Owen-sama, listen to me......"
"Wow!
It really stinks here, it's unbearable!
”At this time, an unpleasant sound came from the ship.The crowd followed the prestige, and saw a man dressed in aristocratic attire who had just stepped off the deck of the ship and stepped on the gangplank, pinching his nose with his hand in disgust.He was followed by two of his men.The nobleman had a thin face, triangular eyes, a hooked nose, and an unusually pointed chin.This person had studied at the Academy of Magic, so Owen knew him.He is Victor Corret, the eldest son of Count Corret, and the Corret family is one of the four great families of the Eastrise Fortress.Seeing this, Teresa stepped aside.Because what Victor and the others are going to explain to Owen is related to the news she brought.Noticing Owen in front of him, Victor put his hand down, with obvious disdain in his eyes.Walking up to Owen, he raised his chin slightly and teased, "Yo!
Isn't this Eisen-san?
I haven't seen each other since I graduated from the Academy of Magic.Ah!
Look at my mouth, I forgot that you inherited the title this year, and now you should be called Marquis of Eisen. ”Victor pretended to be surprised and covered his mouth, pretending to have accidentally said the wrong thing.This guy hasn't changed at all, he still likes to raise his chin to look at people as much as he used to, and he looks like he's amazing, Owen thought to himself.On the side, Mapel was already secretly clenching his fists.If it weren't for the fact that the other party was a nobleman from Dongsheng Fortress, she would have punched the other party in the face.Teresa was equally unhappy.Fortunately, when he was studying at the Academy of Magic, Owen had contact with Victor a few times, so he was not so easily provoked."
It's a trivial matter how to call it."
Owen calmly replied, "Mr.
Victor Corret, may I ask why you are on the ship?"
Also, haven't the Templars reached the Eastrise Fortress yet?
”"No, no, no, the title between nobles is not a trivial matter."
Victor dissatisfied.After a pause, he added: "First of all, my current identity is an emissary, representing the entire Dongsheng Fortress, and you have to call me an ambassador." ”didn't expect the other party to care so much about the issue of title, and Owen didn't bother to entangle with him, so he changed his words directly."
So, Mr.
Ambassador, do you need to come and sit down in my castle and then talk further?""
Well, forget it, I don't want to stay with you for too long."
Victor shook his head decisively and refused, "Let's just say it here, it just has something to do with the Templars you just asked." ”"Oh?
What is it?
Could it be that something had happened to the Templars?
”Recalling Teresa's hesitation just now, Owen had a faint sense of foreboding in his heart."
It's not the Templars who have an accident, it's yours."
Victor corrected."
What do you mean?""
In view of the breaching of the walls of Frontier Town last winter, the Templars will garrison the Dongsheng Fortress to fight against the undead monsters this winter, and I also ask the Marquis of Eisen to inform the civilians of the Frontier Town as soon as possible and let them evacuate to the Dongsheng Fortress for refuge.That's what Duke Eddie asked me to convey to you. ”As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused an uproar among the surrounding bystanders, and most of them expressed concern and even fear."
Wait a minute, why didn't the Templars send an advance team to investigate?"
Owen suddenly became anxious, "Also, the repair work of the northern city wall has been completed recently, and it can completely resist the attack of the undead monsters." ”This sucks now!
In the past, Frontier Town relied on the support of the Templars to successfully defend against the attacks of the undead.Without the support of the Templars this winter, it will be very difficult to successfully defend the northern wall."
I don't know why the Templars didn't send an advance team."
Victor shrugged his shoulders to show that he didn't know, and then said, "As for you saying that the walls have been repaired?"
Wow!
The quality of such a short time is definitely not guaranteed, and it is estimated that the city wall will collapse after touching it. ”"The repaired walls are very hard and solid, and the quality is very reliable.If you don't believe me, you can go to the northern wall and check it out for yourself. ”Mapel, who was on the side, finally couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to say."
Don't lie to me, I still know how long it will take to build the walls."
Victor didn't believe it at all, and he didn't want to waste his time running to check the walls."
Don't talk nonsense with you, anyway, if you should convey it, I've already conveyed it.I'm going back now. ”Before turning back to leave, he turned his head to look at Teresa, "Miss Priest, are you sure you want to stay in Frontier Town?"
”"Yes."
Teresa nodded firmly."
So be it."
Leaving this sentence behind, Victor turned around and walked back with his two subordinates.When he boarded the boat on the gangplank, he was still whispering about the smell of the dock here.After receiving the order to go back, the ship's crew immediately put away the gangplank, then pulled up the anchor, and prepared to set sail back to Dongsheng Fortress."
Teresa......" looked at Teresa on the side, Owen was about to say something of thanks, but was preemptively said by the other party: "Lord Owen, you don't need to say more, I myself strongly asked the captain to come back to help, after all, I am also a member of the border town." ”Hearing this, Owen couldn't help but be moved.The qualification to study in the Holy Church of Caleb for three years is enough to prove Teresa's excellence.She had a bright future in the Holy Church of Caleb, but she didn't want to stay.Upon learning that the Templars had abandoned the Frontier Town, she insisted on coming back to help.All of this shows that Teresa has always been concerned about the border town and has never changed."
Teresa, do you know why the Templars abandoned the Frontier without even sending an advance team?"
Mapel was in a depressed mood, and seemed to be extremely disappointed with the Templars' approach."
I don't know the exact situation, but I know that Duke Eddie invited the captain to the meeting.After returning, the captain announced that he had decided that the team would be stationed at Dongsheng Fortress and would not go to Frontier Town. ”Teresa recalled."
It seems that Duke Eddie deliberately described the situation in Frontier Town as bad, and since the Fortress of Ascension often interacts with Frontier Town, the Templar captain must have believed him."
Owen was very angry at Duke Eddie's approach, and his face gradually became gloomy, if there was no cement, he might really have to consider evacuating, after all, the situation in Frontier Town is indeed a bit bad.It is difficult to resist the undead monsters with the wooden wall alone, and the eastern gap in the wall will become a huge hidden danger, and it is very likely to be breached.At that point, the task of defending the whole winter will become extremely difficult."

Since you say that the walls have been repaired, then I will write to the captain and let him lead the team."
Teresa suggested."
You can write it, but it shouldn't work.""
Why is it useless?"
In response to Teresa's confusion, Owen explained, "Since Duke Eddie wants to keep the Templars in the Ascension Fortress, he will inevitably prevent us from getting in touch with the Templars.Even if the news arrived, he would try to distort the facts and turn them into rumors, after all, it was the duke's words, and no one dared to question them. ”
