Path of light

Chapter 482 483. About new uses of floating devices

Four teams of mixed-blood elf warriors kept coming out of the portal. More and more mixed-blood elf warriors crowded in front of the portal, and it was about to cause a congestion.

Once a one-way portal is congested, serious accidents are prone to occur.

The most fatal thing is to get lost in the rift of time and space, and eventually disappear completely in the portal.

The portal elf guards guarding the portal were sweating profusely and tried to leave more space for the mixed-blood elf warriors who came out of the portal.

Roy raised his head and glanced at Captain Helix, and ordered the mixed-blood elf warriors surrounding the four Silver Moon Elf guards:

"Take your weapons back and get out of the way. There are other elf warriors waiting to come out of the portal. If there is an accident, none of you can escape the blame!"

After saying this, under the gaze of a group of elven warriors, Roy came to the livid-faced Captain Helix:

"My name is Roy, the leader of the mixed elf guard group. Please don't block the portal. We have obtained permission to enter the Partington plane on Partington Island. If you have any dissatisfaction or questions, you can go to the military headquarters. Go accuse me..."

Having said this, Roy paused, and then said to the mixed-blood elf warriors who were already stagnant in the passage:

"let's go!"

After hearing Roy's order, the mixed elf warrior immediately left the portal with two thousand gray dwarf prisoners of war.

Subsequently, one after another large wooden boxes were transported out of the portal. These large wooden boxes were loaded on wooden-wheeled flatbed carts. A group of mixed-blood elf warriors pushed the flatbed carts out of the portal.

The portal guards immediately dispersed the mixed elves crowded at the exit. The goods on the wooden-wheeled flatbed truck that drove out from behind were covered with tarpaulins and tied tightly with ropes. It was impossible to tell what was inside.

Almost all the supplies transported from the Partington plane to the Elf Continent were transported on wooden wheeled flatbed carts, so the mixed-blood elves watching around did not find it strange. They came to the central square just to see those gray dwarves. POW's.

This group of sturdy gray dwarf prisoners of war, wearing heavy shackles on their bodies, lined up to the street dejectedly.

These gray dwarf prisoners of war were tied together in chains, and it was not known which half-blood elf made the first angry curse. Then the half-blood elves reprimanded this group of gray dwarf bandits for their evil deeds in the waters of the Queen Egwene Islands. In the hands of the elves, If there are no rotten eggs, just throw some fruits on these gray dwarf bandits.

The gray dwarf bandits suddenly became furious, dragging their shackles and rushing towards the mixed elves on the roadside. However, the mixed elves responsible for guarding them were beaten with sticks and then rolled on the ground wailing. The other gray dwarf prisoners of war suddenly became Be honest, even if a rotten tomato hits you in the face, you can only wipe it on your face and stare angrily at this group of mixed-blood elf residents, not daring to make any more mistakes.

Roy arranged for three thousand mixed-blood elf warriors to return to Padstow City first and surround the central square in advance, just to prevent these gray dwarf prisoners of war from causing trouble during the escort.

Once the gray dwarf prisoners of war get angry, they don't care about their status as prisoners and rush forward to fight first.

The mixed-blood elf warriors fought several battles with gray dwarf bandits on the Queen Egwene Islands. There was some anger between the two sides. When they saw any changes in the gray dwarf prisoner-of-war team, they were not merciful and just beat them with sticks.

Even some gray dwarf prisoners of war had their bones broken, so they could only huddle in the ranks and grit their teeth.

There is no way, the winner has such power...

The queue of gray dwarf prisoners of war was very long on the street, and there was a half-blood elf warrior almost every two meters.

Over at the central square, cart after cart of supplies were covered with rainproof tarpaulins and pushed directly out of the portal.

Rambo had received the news that Roy had returned to Padstow City two days ago, and he also knew that Roy would bring a large number of magic machines with him this time.

So he also made some preparations here, and hired a lot of carriages from horse and carriage shops. As soon as these magic machines arrived at the central square, Rambo tied these horses in front of the cart, and they pulled the cart to the The row of warehouses Roy rented in Padstow.

At the edge of the central square, Rambo walked up and hugged Roy, and said to Roy happily:

"Welcome back!"

…

News of the victory in the naval battle on the Queen Egwene Islands and the safe return of the Half-Blood Elf Guards to the Partington plane soon spread in Padstow City.

It is said that the officer who led the mixed-blood elf guard team into the Elf Continent's Queen Evanie Islands this time was actually the boss Roy on the Padisto Plateau. The mixed-blood elves in Padstow City suddenly realized this.

‘Oh, it turns out to be Boss Roy. No wonder the mixed elf guard group was able to win and return safely! ’

Suddenly, the entire city of Padstow was talking about this boss Roy...

I heard that he first rescued tens of thousands of mixed-blood elven mining slaves on the Padesto Plateau, and then led the half-blood elven guard group into the Queen Igwene Islands of the Elven Continent and defeated the gray dwarf bandits there. Even the city of Padstow was fired The popularity of primary magic herbal medicine was also driven by Boss Roy, and some anecdotes about Boss Roy have spread a lot.

It is said that the reason why Boss Roy cares so much about the mixed-blood elf is because his sweetheart is also a beautiful mixed-blood elf beauty.

There are even rumors that after the mixed-blood elf rebels rebelled, they were trapped in the barrier village by the Silver Pegasus Army. When the rebels negotiated with the Silver Moon Elf military, there was the shadow of Boss Roy...

Therefore, many things are not suitable for over-interpretation and speculation, otherwise it will lead to a kind of blind worship.

At present, the impression of the mixed-blood elves in Padstow City on Boss Roy is that due to over-interpretation and imagination, the image has become extremely tall...

The mixed elves' favorable impression of Roy instantly increased a lot.

…

Among the five warehouses rented by Roy, one was filled with magic herbs shipped from the Blackwater Swamp.

Although the merchant Augustus has not returned from the Blackwater Swamp, the goods he sent from the Blackwater Swamp have already filled the entire warehouse. It must be said that the merchant Augustus is still in the Blackwater Swamp. Very well-connected.

In addition, Lysander also transported some primary magic herbs from the Pagisto Plateau and piled them in the second warehouse. There were almost more than two thousand bundles, occupying about one-third of the warehouse.

The magic machines that Roy transported from Partington Island are stored in the third warehouse.

There are currently a large number of metal ingots stored in the fourth and fifth warehouses. These metal ingots were transported bit by bit from the Pagisto Plateau by Lysander's team like ants moving, including silver ingots and black iron ingots. , a large storage capacity of tin ingots, and some ordinary spinel ores.

Roy made a rough calculation and found that the total value of the magic herbs and metal ingots currently in the warehouse was estimated to be around 150,000 magic crystals.

I thought it would be more profitable to open a mine, but now it seems that the magic herbal business is really profitable...

Rambo stood in front of the magic machine covered with a rainproof tarpaulin. He opened a corner of the tarpaulin and saw a wooden box the size of a house inside. He couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said, "These big guys... Roy, what are you going to do?" After transporting them to the plateau, do we have to let Kaka and his gryphons lift these big guys up?"

"This time I have a new transportation plan. It probably doesn't require Lysander's pack team or Kaka's gryphon. It may consume some magic crystals..."

Roy said with a smile.

Roy did not elaborate on how to do it. After settling in the warehouse, Roy rode out of Padstow City.

…

The mixed-blood elf guard group and gray dwarf prisoners of war are currently stationed in an apple orchard outside the city. That apple orchard is the property of the Silver Pegasus Legion, so Roy can arrange the mixed-blood elf guard group and gray dwarf prisoners of war there.

At least half of the apple orchard is filled with apple trees, and the trees are covered with green apples.

There are of course some other fruit trees in the garden, but they are smaller in number.

The most eye-catching one is the breadfruit tree on the west slope. The breadfruit on each tree is in a mature state, and the whole tree exudes a sweet smell...

The mixed-blood elf warriors were stationed in the apple orchard, so Roy didn't have to prepare three meals a day for them.

After all, this is Padstow City, not the Key West Islands. Once the Silver Pegasus Army's logistics supply team cannot deliver food in time, the mixed-blood elf warriors will not go hungry...

But Roy didn't plan to stay in Padstow City. Now that he had returned to the Partington plane, of course he still wanted to return to the plateau as soon as possible.

Roy waited until the afternoon to see Rambo transporting the magic machines to the apple orchard outside the city.

Looking at the magic furnace, which was much larger than the cabin, Lambo really knew how heavy it was. Just transporting it from the city to the suburbs, the flatbed truck with wooden wheels got stuck on the soft dirt road countless times. .

There is a long forest road to walk next, and the road conditions will only be worse than the road conditions here.

"You really don't need Kaka and the others to come over to pick you up?" Langbo looked at the long row of wooden boxes and said with some worry,

"Of course!" Roy said confidently.

Seeing that Roy was so confident, Lambo stopped worrying and said:

"Okay, if you have any questions, come to me as soon as possible. My father's pack team has probably entered the Pagisto Plateau. It is estimated that it will take a month to return to the transit camp at the foot of the plateau mountain."

Roy knew that Lambo said this because he hoped that he could find Lysander as quickly as possible if he encountered a problem during the journey.

Roy put his arm around Lambeau's shoulders, pointed at the large wooden boxes in front of him, and asked him with a smile: "Do you want to see how I transport these supplies to the plateau?"

Lambo's eyes lit up: "Is it okay?"

Roy chuckled: "This is not something worth keeping secret, what's wrong with it!"

After saying that, he called over several mixed-blood elf warriors and asked them to find wooden boxes one and a half meters square among the supplies. Then Roy asked the mixed-blood elves to open a wooden box, which was filled with He took out the hay, obviously because he was worried that the goods inside would be bumped during transportation.

Roy and several mixed-blood elf warriors cleaned up the hay, and there was a circular magic device like an airplane engine inside. Six complicated magic patterns were carved on the inner wall of the ring.

"This kind of craftsmanship of incised carving on the inner wall of metal can only be done by master dwarf craftsmen!"

Rambo exclaimed, but he didn't know what kind of device was in front of him.

Roy called for a mixed elf warrior.

This mixed-blood elf once learned some superficial magic knowledge from a magician. He was considered an unqualified magic apprentice. Later, he gave up learning magic because he found it too tiring.

But at least his magic foundation is still there, and he can still condense a ball of water in his hand.

For Roy, that was enough.

What he needs is a magic apprentice who can control the floating device.

Roy asked the mixed elf warriors to place the floating device in an open space in the orchard, then took out a magic crystal from his pocket, and set it inlaid with the magic crystal as the human businessman introduced. On the gemstone base of the levitating device.

Then he asked the mixed-blood elf warrior to use magic to activate the floating device. This was not the first time that the mixed-blood elf warrior operated this floating device. He skillfully used magic to activate the magic pattern array on the floating device. activation.

As the magic continued to flow, there was a violent sound of airflow inside the floating device ring.

Under the control of the mixed-blood elf warrior, an invisible thrust caused the floating device to float on the spot, and the magical light on the inner wall of the ring rotated rapidly.

Lambo's eyes widened, looking at the incredible scene in front of him.

Roy took the opportunity to tie four ropes at the four pull rings around the flotation device. There were hooks at the ends of these four ropes. He then connected the hooks to the hemp ropes tied to the wooden box. The flotation device immediately tied the wooden box. The box was easily lifted into the air.

Then Roy pulled hard on the hemp rope in his hand. The floating device and the large wooden box floating in mid-air were easily pulled forward by Roy for a certain distance, but it seemed to be floating in mid-air. As long as it receives a little external force, its feathers will drift, just like a kite with strings attached.

"This...this is...Roy, have you got the flotation device?" Lambo asked with his eyes widened.

"Well, I bought it from an imperial merchant at Castletown Port." Roy said calmly.

"No wonder you have a way, but I heard that this thing is installed on the airship, so that the airship can float in the air and become a magic airship!" Lambo shouted excitedly.

"It is quite troublesome to build a magic airship in a short time. The top priority now is to transport these magic machines to the Pagisto Plateau..."

Roy said with a smile.

In this way, five thousand mixed elf warriors, two thousand gray dwarf prisoners of war, and a large number of magic machines quietly left the apple orchard on the outskirts of Padstow City one morning in early August 1408, heading towards Pagis. Depart from the transit camp at the foot of the plateau.

The strangest thing about this team is that most of the supplies can be suspended in the air, and the other end of the rope is being dragged tightly by the mixed-blood elf warriors on horseback...
