Tournance's words stunned Marquis Garcia.
But immediately, an undisguised mocking smile appeared on his face, saying:
"Turnans, do you really think that the church today is still the same as it was back then, and can judge a lord at will?"
Turnans stared into the eyes of Marquis Garcia without giving an inch, and said lightly:
"Marquis Garcia, you may not understand how much of a threat Earl Angelet has done to the church, but I can tell you frankly that in the eyes of the Pope, he is a new 'Duke of St. Chapman' '!"
"Okay!" Marquis Garcia said with a bloodthirsty arc on his mouth, "Then you guys should try and see if the Knights Templar can run rampant in Winter City!"
Tournance sighed, as if he was very disappointed with the toughness shown by Marquis Garcia, and said:
"Marquis Garcia, I didn't expect that you would even dare to violate the will of my lord in order to protect Earl Angelet."
"My lord's will?" Marquis Garcia said disdainfully, "Your church is using the banner of our lord all day long, but what kind of activities are you doing? You don't know what you are doing? If the eyes of our lord are still watching this world, you will soon Just burn all you true blasphemers to ashes!"
Turnans shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, Marquis Garcia, I didn't expect you to have such a deep-rooted misunderstanding of our actions to protect the glory of our Lord. I originally planned to let you take charge of the northern border."
Hearing this, the Marquis of Garcia was immediately annoyed, and said with a smile, "Take the title of Duke of the North to tempt me? Hehe, do you know that if I was interested in this position, I would have been able to get me two years ago?" Elder brother hastened to step down, how could it be your turn to come here and put on a gesture of charity?"
Tournan fell silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about what kind of rhetoric he should use to impress the stubborn Marquis of the North.
In fact, Tournance didn't want to come to Marquis Garcia at first, but he really had no other candidates.
Joyce, the more controllable kid, would have been an excellent alternative, but unfortunately, his reputation has long since been completely stink by molesting Princess Judy, and he can't help it if he wants to.
As for the offshoot of the St. Hilde family, if it was in peacetime, Tournance would definitely not hesitate.
But now that the orcs were about to invade the stall, he didn't dare at all.
His plan, without the cooperation of a Saint Hilde with sufficient prestige, would definitely cause huge turmoil.
If the northern border is plunged into turmoil, the empire may be in danger of being overthrown.
Tournance didn't want to be a sinner of the empire.
Therefore, only Marquis Garcia is the most suitable candidate. Only he can quickly stabilize the situation in the northern border after the accident broke out.
But he never thought that Marquis Garcia, who thought he could handle it easily, would be so stubborn!
Could it be that Vera and Colin are more important to him than the Duke of the North
After thinking for a while, Tournans decided to change the way, so he said:
"Marquis Garcia, I'm not using the title of Duke of the North to tempt you, but the North is about to undergo drastic changes. Only you can stabilize the situation at this critical moment and prevent the situation from slipping into an irretrievable abyss."
"A drastic change?" Marquis Garcia looked suspicious.
"Yes." Tournance nodded earnestly, "As I said, blasphemers must pay the price! Please don't underestimate the determination of the church."
Marquis Garcia narrowed his eyes, seemed to think of something, and said coldly, "Really? How many people from your Templar Knights are here?"
"At such a sensitive moment, His Majesty the Pope has no intention of provoking internal strife in the empire, so naturally he will not dispatch the Knights Templar."
"Then how do you make Earl Angelet pay the price?" Marquis Garcia relaxed, with a sneer on his face again, "Do you really think that just a few words of 'My Lord's will' can make me willing to do something for you?" Do you serve your life?"
"No. Since you don't want to work hard to maintain the glory of our lord, then I won't force it. Naturally, the true apostle of our lord will come to make Count Angelet pay the price later. I just hope you can see that For the sake of the overall interests of the empire, restrain the blood cavalry army and prevent the northern border from falling into turmoil."
"Oh?" Marquis Garcia looked at Tournance with a serious face, and naturally he would not think that the other party was bluffing.
So, he suppressed the uneasiness and anger in his heart, and asked, "Then can you tell me who this so-called 'true apostle of our Lord' is? cost?"
A strange smile appeared on the corner of Tournance's mouth, and he whispered out a name: "Vera Saint Hilde."
Marquis Garcia's pupils were locked tightly, and he said in a cold tone:
"What did you guys do to her?"
Tournance didn't really understand the mental state of Marquis Garcia at this time, and he still said to himself:
"My lord duke is only responding to my lord's call. For this reason, she is even willing to bear the crime of murdering her husband.
Therefore, Marquis Garcia, after this, the situation in the northern border still needs you to stabilize.
I know you don't want to cooperate with the church, but at this critical moment when the orcs are about to invade, the northern border must not fall into turmoil. No matter how reluctant you are, you must stand up!
What's more, I don't believe that you are really not interested in being the Duke of the North! "
Marquis Garcia stood up expressionlessly, and walked slowly to Tournance, exuding a frightening aura all over his body.
Tournans couldn't help but take a half step back, feeling a little at a loss in his heart, but he continued to persuade:
"Marquis Garcia, I can assure you that His Majesty's plan this time is only aimed at Earl Angelet, and he has no intention of using this to get involved in the authority of the northern border, otherwise I would not take the initiative to come to you.
Moreover, Your Majesty also hopes to see that at this critical moment, the Northern Territory can be prepared for the invasion of the Orc Empire under your control! "
However, Marquis Garcia's face not only did not ease, but his eyes revealed an undisguised killing intent, and his tone was as cold as coming from the Nine Nether Hell:
"Dare to touch Vera! You all have to die!"
Tournance looked at the Marquis Garcia who seemed to be in a madness, and said:
"Marquis Garcia, why are you so stubborn? Vera St. Hilde should have killed Colin Angelet by now, whether you agree with our plan or not, but all you can do now is to cooperate We have stabilized the situation in the North…”
"Who says I'm dead?"
A voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
Tournans' face suddenly became extraordinarily exciting.
Because, he recognized that it was clearly the voice of Colin Angelet.
boom!
The door was pushed open, and Colin strode in. Before Tournance could react, he grabbed him by the back of the neck and lifted him up.
Marquis Garcia immediately asked, "How is Vera?"
"Not too good." Colin's eyes were filled with raging anger, and he brought Tournans in front of him, and said coldly,
"You'd better wake her up, otherwise, the Church of Radiance will wait to bury her with her!"
