"Hmm, makes sense."
The Earl thought for a moment and nodded, saying:
"Leave soldiers here to guard the position, let the logistics members of the Exploration Corps retreat with me, and send a message to the nearby Wolfsbane Clan outpost. I need them to resist this group of Merfolk advancing inland.
The surrounding area has been allocated to refugees who escaped from the Ligurian Peninsula. Once they learn about the Merfolk attacking the coast, it will undoubtedly cause unnecessary commotion. The current direction of the war is unstable, and if these hundreds of thousands of refugees riot, things will get complicated."
The old butler nodded, turned and left to make arrangements and also to give his master time to change clothes.
When Count Leon closed the door, his teleportation mistress, who he had bought for a considerable sum for the rest of his life, had already prepared hunting gear for his journey and stepped forward to help him change.
