Path of light

Chapter 331 332. Difficult Road

The Silver Moon Elf warriors in the logistics group get up early every day and have to go on the road, and camp only at sunset. The food they eat every day is very simple. In addition to the elf biscuits they carry with them, they often also collect wild fruits in the forest. Everyone spends their time in the evening. Sometimes, I would sit under the tree, play the piano and sing.

The Silver Moon elves know how to live well. Even when they are marching, they are accustomed to a cup of lemon tea every morning.

Roy lived with the logistics team. He was also very good at setting up tents, cutting grass to feed the horses, and picking berries from the berry bushes. Occasionally, he would get up early and cook a pot of lemon tea for everyone to drink.

At first, the Silver Moon Elf warriors were wary of this new half-elf, their eyes and words were very unfamiliar.

But after a week of contact, everyone found that this half-elf boy was a diligent and smart kid who would often help everyone do whatever they could.

The elf warrior and Roy gradually became familiar with each other and often sat together and chatted.

"Roy, have you been living in Castletown?"

A Silver Moon Elf warrior asked Roy curiously.

"Hmm." Roy was nibbling on breadfruit. Compared to those dry and tasteless elf biscuits, Roy preferred breadfruit with a strong sense of satiety.

Another elf warrior said: "He is still studying at the elf academy. If it were not for the war on the Pagisto Plateau, he should be sitting in a clean and bright classroom now, listening to the teachers' lectures."

This elf warrior has been feeding horses with Roy in recent days and knows a lot about Roy.

A Silver Moon Elf female warrior came over with an unknown wild fruit, sat down on a rock, and asked Roy with a smile:

"Roy, I heard that you have been to Pajisto Plateau?"

"Um……"

The elf warriors of the logistics group sometimes take good care of Roy. His tent is almost always in the camp, and he has never been on night watch in so many days.

Every time food and other supplies were distributed, his share was never missing.

Every night, the elves always play some soothing music, and then other elves sit under the tree and hum the beautiful songs together.

Every Silver Moon Elf has extraordinary musical talent, and at least they can hum songs in a decent way.

Roy would also sit under the tree with everyone at this time, and everyone would sing together. Roy felt that this might also be a way to enhance feelings.

Each elf warrior in the logistics group is very good at fighting. They conduct more detailed reconnaissance work around the camp. Generally speaking, the marching route follows the path taken by the cavalry vanguard group in front and moves forward slowly. .

As the Elf Dragon disappeared from the Elf Continent, the Silver Pegasus Legion became the most powerful flying army in the Elf Continent.

Although most of the cavalry vanguard this time were ground cavalry units, they were also accompanied by two teams of Silver Pegasus warriors.

During the march, the main task of these Silver Pegasus warriors is to detect the enemy's situation, so the path chosen by the Cavalry Pioneer Regiment is basically the optimal one.

The logistics regiment followed the cavalry vanguard regiment, and safety issues were greatly guaranteed.

But this situation took a turn for the worse when approaching the Pagisto Plateau...

After entering the hilly and mountainous areas, the road chosen by the logistics team became less easy to walk.

In particular, the logistics group is a huge convoy of forty carriages. In this kind of hilly area, it needs to constantly go uphill and downhill. If you go around some hills, you have to walk a long way on the mountain road. Sometimes the valleys are even more difficult. You will encounter swamps and cliffs, and the road will become more difficult to walk.

The Cavalry Pioneer Regiment is an elite cavalry unit that is highly mobile.

The mountains that the horses could climb were sometimes impassable for these carriages.

Many times, the wooden wheels of horse-drawn carriages get stuck in the mud, causing congestion on mountain roads. This happens every day and every moment.

The emergency support team of the logistics team has been too busy these days. Not only are they covered in mud like monkeys, but they don't even have any time to rest.

Signs for help were everywhere and horses were always injured.

The mountain roads in these hills and mountains are difficult to walk. When encountering an uphill slope, everyone often pushes the carts together and pushes the carriages one by one to the top of the slope.

You have to be more careful when going downhill. When going uphill, you can't pull it at most, but when going downhill, it's different. Once the horse in front loses its stability, the heavily loaded carriage will rush down along with the horses. Maybe the whole carriage would be destroyed and the horses would be injured.

Although the elves carried some magic herbs, it was difficult for injured horses to heal quickly, which would make the carriage unable to move forward. The best way was to transfer the supplies to other carriages, and then discard the damaged carriage on the roadside. , taking the injured war horse and moving forward together.

Although horses continued to be added later, the logistics team still moved slower and slower in this hilly and mountainous area.

In the past few days, Roy has been pushing carts with the elf warriors of the Logistics Group, and his little stallion has also been requisitioned to transport supplies. The Logistics Group has lost more than a dozen horses, but Captain Berkeley submitted The application for a war horse that went up was never approved.

Roy dragged his tired body into the tent. He didn't even want to take off the magic pattern structure on his body, so he wrapped himself in a blanket and fell asleep.

I haven't heard any singing at night for several days in a row.

In the middle of the night, Roy suddenly woke up from his sleep. The sound of pouring beans reached his ears. Roy quickly stretched out his hand outside the tent, and the cold rain immediately hit his palm. Yi quickly got up from the tent.

It was raining outside, so he rushed into the heavy rain wearing the magic pattern structure. In the dark, he found the pony tied to a big tree. Roy put a rainproof cloak on the pony.

The rain was very cold. Roy was worried that the pony would get sick from the rain, so he put a rainproof cloak on it.

Many Silver Moon elves in the camp got up in the rain and covered the carriage box with tarpaulin.

It was too dark and rainy to light a torch, and there were only a few gas lanterns hanging in the camp, so the light could not travel very far.

Roy ran to a carriage to help and covered the supplies with the elf warriors.

After all these things were done, it was almost dawn, but the rain did not let up.

Captain Berkeley could only issue a notice, and the logistics team would wait until the rain cleared before setting off.

The elf warriors could only sit in their tents to hide from the rain. The heavy rain did not stop until noon.

After the rain, the sunny hills and mountains were filled with the fragrance of soil and plants. Roy walked out of the tent and found that the grass and trees were covered with rainwater. As long as there was a little movement, a light rain would fall in the forest.

The shoes were covered with mud.

A rain made the road muddy.

The elf warriors of the logistics group have begun to break camp and make preparations for departure.

However, this is just one of the countless logistics groups heading to the Pagisto Plateau, and it is just a small microcosm of this battle.

…

A bay-red horse slipped on the muddy mountain road and let out a shrill neigh.

This horse was originally injured, and its hindquarters are still wrapped with some herbs. Now it slipped on the muddy mountain road, and its whole body was covered with muddy water. It struggled to stand up several times, but failed. Way to do it.

When Captain Berkeley arrived at the scene, the elf warriors had already dragged the injured horse to the side of the road, and carriages slowly passed by.

It's just that the war horse still can't stand up...

"Captain, what should I do? Do you want to leave it here?"

The elf warrior asked Captain Berkeley.

To stay where he is, to put it mildly, is to prepare to let the war horse fend for itself.

Captain Berkeley frowned. The war horses in the logistics group were severely worn out. There were no longer enough horses to transport these supplies. However, after the war horses were injured, they could not move at all, so they had to give up...

Just as Captain Berkeley was about to make a decision, he heard someone on the side say:

"let me see."

Roy came up from the back of the team wearing a magic pattern structure, squatted next to the war horse, and carefully checked the horse's injuries.

A group of elf warriors gathered around, and then everyone saw a ball of light appearing on Roy's hand. He began to recite a series of spells. A divine pattern appeared in front of Roy, and then a healing beam fell on the war horse. of injuries.

‘Holy Light Technique’

The war horse neighed with joy, and before the effect of Roy's 'Holy Light Technique' wore off, the war horse had already struggled to stand up from the muddy water.

"Roy, are you still a priest?"

Captain Berkeley was a little dumbfounded. He did not expect that the young half-elf sent over by Count Swinburne was a priest.

Roy retracted his hands into his sleeves and replied: "I worked as a trainee priest in the Temple of Liberty for a year and learned several divine arts. Now that the Temple of Liberty in Castletown has been closed, I It also leaves the temple."

Captain Berkeley touched the war horse with some joy and said: "Fortunately, it is a priest from the Temple of Liberty. The priests from the Temple of the Moon do not use magic to treat horses."

Roy thought of Woods, who was proficient in magical herbalism. It seemed that there really were no druids in the logistics team.

So he asked Captain Berkeley:

"Why don't I see druids in the army?"

Captain Berkeley blinked at Roy, leaned into his ear and whispered in his ear: "Druids only exist in the Wood Elf Kingdom. This involves faith. We believe in the Goddess of the Moon, and the Wood Elves believe in the World Tree. It’s best not to discuss this kind of topic at all, otherwise the priests of the Moon Temple will come to you at some point!”

It was the Moon Temple again, so Roy said no more.

The horse recovered quickly. After standing on the roadside for a while, it was able to walk slowly with the logistics team.

Although you can't carry heavy things, at least you won't be left behind.

…

The heavy rain turned the low-lying areas of the hills and mountains into large muddy swamps.

The logistics group could not get out of the hills and mountains, and could only crawl and roll in the muddy water. The logistics group moved slowly every day, like a turtle crawling...

Captain Berkeley was a little worried, but all the logistics groups entering the hilly and mountainous areas were in a dilemma of lack of horses. The application he submitted was like nothing, and there was no reply at all.

The cavalry vanguard regiment in front had already rushed into the mountains of the Pagisto Plateau. Letters from the battlefield ahead fell into the hands of Captain Berkeley. Most of them were urging the logistics regiment to send supplies as soon as possible. .

But the logistics group is now stuck in the hills and mountains, with no way to get out.

Captain Berkeley has been worrying about it for the past two days. He has to walk through the quagmire-like mountain road every day. Although he has a map in his hand, he still doesn’t know how long it will take to get out of this quagmire.

Every day, horses were injured and vehicles were seriously damaged. Although some unimportant supplies were thrown on the roadside, he still didn't know how long it would take to get out of this hilly and mountainous area.

If a young half-elf priest hadn't appeared in the logistics group, the entire logistics group might have collapsed halfway.

"Captain Berkeley, I have a suggestion that will allow you to send the supplies up on time."

Just when Captain Berkeley was worried, Roy came from behind him, sat aside and said to Captain Berkeley.

Seeing that Roy didn't seem to be joking, Captain Berkeley asked with a confused look on his face: "Do you have a solution? What solution?"

"I have a friend who happens to be in the hilly area. He is a mixed elf from the Pagisto Plateau. He has a group of argali sheep. I can invite him to help transport this batch of supplies." Roy told Captain Berkeley. said.

"Are they the mixed-blood elves aboriginal on the Pagisto Plateau?" Captain Berkeley said hesitantly.

"Yes, I have a way to ask them for help!" Roy said.

"Then go and invite your friends over. Any conditions can be discussed." Leader Berkeley responded.

"I was thinking that if our cavalry vanguard regiment enters the highlands and won't attack the mixed elves on the plateau, then we will have a chance to cooperate." Roy muttered in a low voice.

"Of course, the military department made a decision last week. When we enter the plateau this time, our battle target will be the elven headhunters on the plateau. We will definitely not attack the mixed-blood elves on the plateau." Captain Berkeley said. .

"Okay, I'll go find him now..." Roy stood up, turned around and ran into the muddy jungle.

Captain Berkeley quickly sent two elf warriors to follow Roy to ensure Roy's safety along the way.

In fact, Lysander had always been near the hills and mountains. He took the group of argali sheep and hid in a mountain col, trying to avoid the regular army of Silver Moon elves.

Unexpectedly, Roy would come with the Silver Moon Elf Warriors...

Roy walked into a mountain col and shouted Lesander's name loudly towards the lush jungle.

At first, Lysander thought that Roy had been coerced by two Silver Moon Elf warriors. He wanted to hide in the depths of the jungle to avoid being hunted by the two Silver Moon Elf warriors. Later, after thinking about it, he thought that he should find an opportunity to kill the two Elf warriors. The warrior cleaned up and rescued Roy from the Silver Moon Elf warriors.

So he took Lambo to ambush in the woods. When Roy walked in, he found that Roy was not intimidated by the Silver Moon Elf warriors. Then he emerged from the woods and met Roy.
