"Painting?
I'm drawing machine designs, not for fun.At that time, the blacksmiths will have to build the machine according to the drawings, which is crucial to the development of the border town. ”In order to dispel Clive's misunderstanding, Owen had to put the quill aside and patiently explain to him."
Well, Lord Marquis, blame me for being in such a hurry that I didn't see that you were doing business.I heard about something big and hurried here. ”Whatever the lord is doing, let him be.For now, Clive has something more important to say."
The Templars decided to garrison the Fortress of Tosheng and abandon the Frontier Town.You should know this news, right?
I heard that it was the emissary of the Ascension that you received. ”"Yes, I know, the ambassador did meet with me.""
Now that you know, why are you so leisurely?
Shouldn't all the nobles and civil officials in the border town be summoned to discuss this matter at once?
”Looking at Owen with a calm face, Clive felt incredulous, as if he hadn't taken it to heart at all."
There's no need, I've already decided to stay in Frontier Town.""
Heck, even if you've decided to evacuate, you'll have to ......
Huh?
Lord Marquis, what did you just say?
”Halfway through his words, Clive snapped into action.He looked at Owen in shock, his eyes wide open, and he felt like he was going to pop out at any moment."
Stay in the border town."
Owen clearly said this decision again, "I will lead everyone to resist the undead monsters and survive this winter safely." ”"You, you want to stay in Frontier Town?""
Yes."
Owen nodded.Clive wished he had misheard, but unfortunately not.Remembering what Owen was leisurely drawing just now, he even wondered if the lord was crazy today?
Why did you just put this lord on the table?
Always making unexpected decisions, Clive is very tired.Knowing that staying in Frontier would kill him, Clive decided to convince Owen to change his dangerous mind.After sorting out his thoughts a little, he spoke: "Lord Marquis, you must not ......"
"Clive, you don't have to say anything, I know what you want to say." ”Owen interrupted, "But I'm confident that we can hold the northern wall. ”"It's not something that can be done by faith alone."
Still not giving up, Clive continued to persuade: "Lord Marquis, you have never witnessed the horror of undead monsters on the city walls, and you may not understand their power.Without the support of the Templars, the northern walls could not be defended. ”"I really haven't seen it with my own eyes."
On this point, Owen also admitted it frankly.He had spent the winter either in the castle or at the Dongsheng Fortress, and had no chance to touch the northern walls, nor did his father allow him."
But I've heard about them from people who have witnessed them, and I still know how powerful they are."
Perhaps it was because of the lack of access to them that Owen was very interested in undead monsters, and often inquired about relevant news from his father or Marpel."
If you really knew, you wouldn't have made such a ridiculous decision."
Clive didn't believe what Owen said.He guessed that the lord had heard too many stories about the Templars annihilating a large number of undead monsters, and mistakenly thought that the undead monsters were nothing more than that."
Ridiculous?
I made this decision after careful consideration. ”"Lord Marquis, you can reconsider."
Clive pleaded, "It is better to gather the nobles and civil officials of the frontier town, and then listen to their ideas one by one, and finally make a decision." ”"That's it!
After all, you just don't believe I can hold the northern wall. ”In the face of Clive's stalking, Owen was already starting to get bored.Knock knock!
Just then, a guard knocked on the door and entered the study, informing him that Viscount Jarvis wanted to see Owen.Owen was slightly surprised by this, but nodded in agreement.Viscount Jarvis, Marpel's father, was his father's right-hand man.In normal times, he would stay at the northern wall, responsible for managing and training the knights stationed on the wall, and rarely came to the castle.I came here today to ask about the Templars.After a while, a middle-aged man dressed in aristocratic clothing entered the study, and he was Viscount Jarvis.Viscount Jarvis's blue hair was combed back into a large back, with a little gray hair on his temples, and he wore a black blindfold on his left eye, which was scratched by the undead monster last winter.He always has a cold and ruthless face, a very manly beard on his face, and a strong body formed by long-term training.Walking up to Clive's side, Viscount Jarvis saluted Owen's chest.Glancing at each other in surprise, Owen said, "It's really rare, Viscount Jarvis, you actually came to see me." ”"Marquis Eisen, I think you should know why I came to you."
Owen has a good relationship with Marpel, but he is not familiar with him at all.Because he always has a serious face, it is easy to be intimidating, and now that he wears an eyepatch on his left eye, he looks even more fierce.However, Owen knew that Viscount Jarvis was absolutely loyal to the Eisen family.Because at his father's funeral, it was the first time for Owen to see him so sad, and he cried unadulterously.It was a heartfelt cry, and Owen could see it.In contrast, the other aristocrats were just putting on a show."
I can tell you unequivocally about this matter, I have decided to stay in Frontier Town."
Owen said it directly."
Why?""
You may not believe it, so it's better for you to see it with your own eyes.In two days' time, I'll give a speech on the open flat on the east side of town, and I'll show you a powerful weapon, and I hope you'll be there, Viscount Jarvis. ”"Alright, I'll be there, I hope your powerful weapon won't disappoint me."
Without saying much, just as Viscount Jarvis was about to retreat, Owen suddenly stopped him."
Wait a minute, Viscount Jarvis.""
What's the matter?""
For a better display, I need to borrow a catapult from the northern wall.""
No problem."
Viscount Jarvis agreed, "I'll send someone to bring you a catapult in a moment." ”"Thank you very much."
After Viscount Jarvis left the study, Owen turned to look at Clive."

”"It's ......"
Clive had tried to convince Owen to change his mind.If you obey his orders now, won't you be unconvinced?"
I know you still don't believe it.That's good, if you still don't think we can protect the border town in the speech and display two days later, then you can take refuge in the Dongsheng Fortress by yourself, and I will never stop and blame you. ”Owen let out all these words, and there was no need for Clive to continue dwelling.Without much thought, he nodded and replied, "Yes, I'll make an announcement." ”"Oh, yes!
The announcement said that anyone who came to listen to my speech would receive a bowl of wheat porridge and a slice of bread at the end of the day. ”In order to attract more people to come, Owen had to do this.
