Chapter 553 554. Roy’s worries
Roy had to get up early to take a boat back to the Partington plane at the Castletown Port Pier, because the tide in Castletown Port happened to be in the morning.
After getting up from the bed with difficulty, Roy put on the magic pattern structure and walked out of the yard, only to find Sabrina and Moira just walking out of the yard next door.
"Morning! Roy."
The sweet voice sounded in the quiet street. Roy couldn't help but smile and said:
"Good morning, are you two going to the Elf Academy so early?"
Moira's eyes curled into crescent moons, and her smile with pursed lips was still as cute as ever.
"Today is the first day of school, and we are going to go to the academy early."
Sabrina stood on the street, tucking her long wind-blown hair behind her ears with one hand, and said, "The wind is just right in the morning, which is perfect for sailing on the sea."
"When you have time, remember to come back and see us!"
"I will. There are still two batches of military supplies to be traded in Castletown City. I will be back soon." Roy agreed readily.
Brown Street is not long, so Moira and Sabrina had to wait for the long carriage at the intersection, so the three of them said goodbye at the intersection.
Roy passed by Mrs. Winnie's magic potion shop and habitually glanced under the wall of the potion shop. Although the big cat had followed him to the Partington plane, every time he passed by, I still can’t help but look inside the pharmacy.
Just like when you pass the abandoned Temple of Liberty, you will look through the big iron gate at the lush weeds growing out of the stone cracks in the courtyard. Even some weeds have grown on the roof of the main temple.
Thinking of the time he lived in the temple and seeing the decay in front of him, Roy couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
When Roy walked to Castletown Harbor, the sun just showed its red figure from the morning glow.
Byron Thor was signing at the dock of Castletown Harbor with his luggage on his back. He looked like he was waiting for the ship. He was dressed in a suit for a long journey. The most eye-catching thing about him was the longbow wrapped in linen behind his back.
Roy stopped and saluted the powerful Byron Thor, and then asked him: "Are you going on a trip?"
Byron Thor looked a little tired. He waved his hand to Roy and said in a calm voice: "I have been having nightmares recently. I dreamed that the souls of my old brothers were trapped in the dark place. They asked I'm going to bring their bones back, so I'm going to visit the Dark Place again."
Roy blinked.
He hesitated for a moment and then said: "I heard that something special happened over there at Golfito. You must be more careful when you go there."
Byron Thor looked at Roy with some surprise and said, "Haha, have you also heard about Golfito's situation? That's right, the Silver Pegasus Army will definitely not be able to stay out of it this time."
Roy didn't know that the Silver Pegasus Legion was also going to send troops to Golfito, and stood there in a daze.
"..."
A sea-going ship shook the bell on its bow violently, and the clear and melodious sound of the bell spread far away. The sea-going ship slowly left the port against the surging tide.
Roy looked towards the dock in the deep water area. The three-masted sailboat was obviously ready to leave the port.
"The ship over there is waiting for me, I'll board it first!"
Roy said goodbye to Byron Thor and ran quickly to the three-masted sailboat.
Sure enough, after Roy boarded the three-masted sailing ship, the crew on the ship immediately pulled back the sampan set up on the dock, and then sailed towards the sea against the rising tide amid a crisp ringing of bells.
After the three-masted schooner entered the sea, it sailed towards Partington Island without filling its sails.
The first stop, the three-masted sailing ship was to deliver these elf biscuits and breadfruit to the waters where the imperial merchants docked their ships.
The imperial businessman Darwin stood on the roof of the ship building and waved to Roy's three-masted sailboat. Only then did Roy realize that he had changed to a merchant ship.
Roy curiously asked the imperial merchant Darwin and found out that the merchant ship had returned to Roland last night after being filled with magic herbs and metal ingots.
It can be seen that these imperial businessmen are quite united.
Although many businessmen are also competitors, the interests of the empire are above all else.
As long as there is a ship filled with supplies, the ship will not stay in the waters of the Elf Continent.
Of course, these businessmen will also have some competition in private.
Roy understood why he was so hated. He almost monopolized the primary magic herbal market in the Partington plane. This was the main reason for the hatred in the hearts of those imperial businessmen.
Another reason that gave the imperial businessmen the idea of assassination was Roy's half-elf identity.
These imperial businessmen believe that a young half-elf's living space in the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom, which is full of racial discrimination, should actually be very limited.
It's just that they didn't understand one thing. How could the half-elf who could monopolize the primary magic herbal market in the Partington plane be Caigua without any background or ability?
The imperial businessmen did not expect that Roy had a military background with the Silver Pegasus Legion, and was also familiar with the security guards at Castletown Port.
After this matter was messed up, the imperial businessmen could only bite the bullet and come up with a large amount of compensation...
Although one hundred flotation devices were temporarily loaned to Roy in name, in fact these flotation devices completely belonged to Roy.
Returning the flotation device to that group of imperial businessmen is a matter for the imperial businessman Darwin...
The punishment of the Silver Moon elves on these imperial merchants has not yet been lifted. All imperial merchant ships have been driven out of Castletown Port. These merchant ships are not allowed to approach Castletown Port until the murderers are handed over.
This penalty is too severe, which means that the imperial merchant ships cannot replenish supplies at Castletown Port. Fortunately, the crew have long been accustomed to life at sea, anchored in this sea area, and occasionally run to tidal reefs. Turn around.
The imperial businessman Darwin expressed his great gratitude to Roy for sending so many daily necessities that were easy to store.
When Roy came, other empire businessmen did not dare to show up, for fear of bringing back some bad memories of Roy and making their situation even more difficult.
The deck of this merchant ship was piled with oak barrels. The bow of the ship did not hit the horn, but a whale hunting crossbow was set up.
Imperial businessman Darwin was leaning next to the whale hunting crossbow, because Roy was very interested in this giant crossbow...
His three-masted sailboats do not have such ultra-long-range seated crossbows. If such heavy crossbows can be transported back to the seawall of Sun Island Bay, it is estimated that the Toad Fish Cavalry will not dare to approach Sun Island Bay. The dock.
Imperial businessman Darwin saw that Roy was interested in the whale hunting crossbow, so he took the initiative to introduce this bed crossbow.
In fact, this whale hunting crossbow is one of the few means of self-protection on this merchant ship.
Unfortunately, there are no spare whale-hunting crossbows on the merchant ships. If Roy wants to order one, the imperial businessman Darwin promises to help Roy purchase it from the dwarf country. This thing is far less expensive than the flotation device. Roy watched the crew carrying elf biscuits along the sampan to the merchant ship, and couldn't help but ask:
"Has the dimension of the Green Empire also been attacked by dark creatures?"
The imperial businessman Darwin looked at Roy with a complicated expression and said: "In the Green Empire, almost all the rich planes are in the hands of the imperial royal family and the dukes of various provinces. The imperial army comes from all planes. Continuously plundering resources and transporting them to the mainland of the empire supports the prosperity of the entire Green Empire."
"As the plane war broke out, those rich planes gradually got involved in the war."
"In order to prevent the dark forces of the Abyss from entering Roland Continent through these planes, the military will destroy some plane portals that are about to fall. At the same time, they will also conduct militarized management of planes that are caught in war, so these planes are very It will be difficult to continue sending resources to the Green Empire."
"But at this time, all the Temples of Liberty in the Empire were abandoned by the priests, and the priests and priests in the temples also disappeared."
"The Constructed Knights, who lack priests and priests, can only rely on life potions when fighting on the battlefield. However, the planes rich in medicinal herbs have fallen, so we traveled far across the ocean to go to the elves. Come to the mainland to buy magic herbs!”
Roy was a little distracted and said, "Have the Temple of Liberty in the Green Empire also been abandoned by the priests?"
"Although I can't tell everything, that's about it!" Darwin, the imperial businessman, said casually.
It seems that the situation in Roland Continent is more complicated than that in Elf Continent...
At present, there is no news about a plane war breaking out in the Elf Continent.
The only news is that the priests of the Temple of Liberty abandoned Golfito Canyon, and all the priests disappeared inexplicably...
…
With an inexplicable heavy heart, Roy returned to Partington Island in a three-masted sailing ship.
At this time, there were no mixed-blood elves stranded on Partington Island. However, when the sailboat passed by the island pier, Roy found that there were a large number of supply ships parked on the pier. These supply ships almost occupied all the supplies at the island pier. The berths are all occupied.
Roy gave up the plan of docking the ship at the island pier and carefully counted the supply ships anchored at the island pier. There were more than thirty ships.
Roy was really shocked.
The three-masted sailboat had no choice but to sail towards the island's sheltered fjord.
When Roy landed on the sheltered fjord, he asked the mixed-blood elf crew to move all the supplies on the ship to the magic airship on the shore that had completed all modifications.
Taking this time, Roy came to the pier of Partington Island. He wanted to know why there were so many supply ships parked on the island pier. Could it be that the Queen Evening Islands were preparing for war again? .
Roy's three-masted sailing ship arrived at Partington Island in the evening. He naturally did not see the scene in the morning when the Second Silver Pegasus Knights went from the Queen Evine Islands to Golfito, but this did not prevent those who The mixed-blood elf on the dock told Roy the news.
Along with the thirty supply ships, there were also three thousand Silver Moon Elf warriors from two infantry guard regiments of the Silver Pegasus Legion.
At this moment, these Silver Moon Elf warriors were sitting on the beach next to the island pier and resting.
When Roy passed by the beach, he heard several Silver Moon Elf officers leaning against the reef beach and talking in low voices.
"What bad luck!"
"If Brad and Craven hadn't suddenly gone to the Partington plane to become mine owners, I guess it would have been the two of them on this business trip..."
"That's right! Why are our two guard regiments going to Golfito?"
"Hey, hey, keep your voice down. If the higher-ups above hear these words, they will probably go to the Partington plane to mine..."
Roy thought it would be better to walk as far away as possible to avoid the awkwardness of bumping into him.
Arriving at the dock of the island, Roy found that the mixed-blood elves had transported a large amount of supplies from the town of Partington and placed them in the cabin of the medium-sized sailboat.
Seeing several familiar captains on the pier of Partington Island, Roy walked over with a relaxed expression.
These captains knew Roy's identity and naturally did not deliberately conceal their mission.
These supply ships will depart from Partington Island, sail all the way north, and will eventually land at Muraayaki Port on the west coast of the Yangtze Strait.
Then there will be a transport team carrying this batch of supplies westward, passing through the Oxygen Mountains, and entering Golfito Canyon.
This is the closest road from the Queen Evenee Islands to Golfito Canyon. The only drawback is that more than half of this road is a long and boring sea route.
Unexpectedly, it was true that the Silver Pegasus Legion sent troops to Golfito.
It looks like something is really wrong over there at Golfito.
Roy was a little worried about High Priest Reed who was in the Dark Land. He learned from the second-level powerhouse Byron Thor that the dark creatures were extremely powerful in the Dark Land, and High Priest Reed was not having a good time there. not good.
Although he was a little worried, Roy never thought about going to the dark place.
What would happen if he went to the dark place alone?
……
The sixth magic airship was filled with the excellent quality equipment that Roy brought back from Castletown City, and flew into Padstow City under Roy's leadership.
Nowadays, the mixed-blood elven residents in Padstow City have long been accustomed to the magic airships that silently swim around in the sky. Some businessmen even went to the airport terminal to inquire about the price of the tickets.
For some businessmen, the price of a magic crystal and an airship ticket is somewhat too expensive.
This time Roy arrived in Padstow City and did not report to the Silver Pegasus military headquarters in Padstow.
He just took a stroll in the lively city of Padstow and was about to take the magic airship to the plateau city.
It's just that the population of mixed-blood elves in Padstow City is experiencing an explosive growth. The city is full of mixed-blood elves, and new tree houses have appeared one after another on the hillside opposite.
When Roy passed by a small square in the city, he saw a middle-aged mixed-race elf standing on a truck, giving an emotional speech to a dozen mixed-race elves around him.
‘...We came here from the oppressed Elf Continent, should we continue to accept the oppression of the Silver Moon Elf? ’
‘...This is obviously our city, but why is the city manager a Silver Moon Elf? ’
'...Have you ever thought that our parents were oppressed by the Silver Moon Elves? We are currently suffering from the oppression of the Silver Moon Elves, and our children will face the same problem in the future. Do we really have to continue to do so? Can we continue to live like this? ’
Roy stood on the edge of the small square and listened to the impassioned middle-aged mixed-race elf speak for a while before turning and leaving without saying a word.
