Path of light

Chapter 662 663. Departure

The Mine Guard Regiment immediately evacuates from the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp, which is impossible under the current situation.

At present, apart from the half-blood elf warriors of the Mine Guard Regiment, no other regiment in the Golfito Valley can fully adapt to the environment of the Dark Land.

This place is full of dark air. If there is no purification technique to dispel the dark air on the body, the elf warriors will be eroded by the dark air for a long time, and their minds will be easily affected by the dark breath.

Roy is a priest who can purify the dark air from the half-blood elf warriors.

Commander Gabreth has always thought so...

This is also the most distressing thing for Commander Gabreth. There are more than 50,000 elf warriors stationed in the Golfito Valley, but there are no other regiments that can be sent to the Dark Land except the Mine Guard Regiment.

In fact, the priests of the Moon Temple are also unwilling to enter the Dark Land.

This means that once the Silver Moon Elf Warriors are stationed in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp, they will have to pass through the Dark Gate every two weeks to let the Moon Temple priests purify the dark energy in their bodies.

In the tent of the Mine Guard Corps, Roy looked at Captain Gabreth and said directly:

"The garrison period of the Mine Guard Corps has not yet expired. For the time being, let my team continue to guard the Dark Gate."

Roy's eyes did not linger on Captain Gabreth's face. He turned his head and said sincerely to Captain Malthus:

"As for the reinforcements sent by Earl Swinburne, let them get familiar with the environment of Golfito Canyon for the time being... I will take the time to return to Partington Island to understand what the situation is over there. The Mine Guard Corps can still stay here for the time being."

Roy knew that Earl Swinburne would send the Elf Guard Corps to replace his own Mine Guard Corps.

But he didn't expect this new army to come so quickly...

"That's the best, Roy. I can give you a pass to leave later."

After hearing what Roy said, Legion Commander Gabreth said on the spot that Roy could leave Golfito Canyon at any time.

Roy stood up and saluted Legion Commander Gabreth.

Legion Commander Gabreth patted Roy on the shoulder and said to him kindly: "Then let's settle this matter first!"

Legion Commander Gabreth did not stay at the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp. He passed through the Dark Gate and returned directly to the Legion Headquarters in Golfito Canyon.

...

Only Captain Malthus was left at the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp. He sat in the tent, looking at the detailed maps of the Dark Land hanging around the tent, and sighed:

"I didn't expect that in the past year or so, you have actually been to so many places in the Dark Land."

Roy smiled calmly, scratched his head, and said to Captain Malthus:

"Indeed, I have been to many places. I have been to the depths of the sea in the Dark Land, where I have seen the entrance to the abyss. I also walked along the expedition road to the Dragon's Throat Expeditionary Camp in one breath, where I saw the Nakma Demon Army..."

"Now I know that the priests fighting in the Dark Land are actually quite bitter."

After saying this, Roy sighed silently.

At this moment, he thought of Captain Jeroin and the Knights Templar, and the abandoned priests in the expeditionary camp, as well as the great priest Reed who died in the Dragon's Throat Expeditionary Camp.

Captain Malthus was not very concerned about the situation in the Dark Land. At present, it seemed that the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp was still very safe.

He stayed alone this time mainly to convey Earl Swinburne's order to Roy...

Captain Malthus became a little serious and said to Roy:

"Earl Swinburne sent an order. He hopes that you can take the mine guards back to the Partington plane as soon as possible. In the past six months, the conflict between the Silver Moon Elf merchants and the Half-Blood Elf Collectors on the Partington plane has intensified. There is no room for easing between the two sides. Unfortunately, the magic herb market is even hotter than last year..."

Roy showed a bitter smile on his face and asked Captain Malthus:

"So that's why you asked me to clean up the situation over there?"

Captain Malthus nodded and asked Roy:

"When can you leave?"

Roy thought for a while before answering:

"The Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp still needs to be dealt with. Give me half a day. After half a day, I will pass through the Dark Gate and arrive at Golfito Canyon. If everything goes well, as long as I get the exit certificate, I will immediately take the magic airship to Partington Island."

"Okay, remember to find me in the camp when you get to Golfito Canyon."

Captain Malthus told Roy.

After saying these things, Captain Malthus left the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp.

...

Roy didn't need to arrange work for Deputy Captain Timothy. He stayed in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp for half a day mainly to bring all the dark monster materials he had harvested during this period back to the Elf Continent.

In addition, Roy had to make some additional arrangements before leaving the Dark Land.

For example, he had promised Captain Jelloin that he would occasionally wait for them at the market of the Isnes Expeditionary Camp.

This time when Roy went to the Elf Continent, he would arrange for personnel to go to the market of the Isnes Expeditionary Force Camp regularly to wait for news from Captain Jelloin.

In addition, Leah and Alice also have to make some arrangements.

Leah and Alice set up a small tent in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp. The two sisters usually sleep in the tent. Leah still runs around every day, and Alice goes to the holy water pool in the center of the camp every day to pray with other half-blood elf guards.

She wears a gray cloak every day, with the hood covering her face, and recites prayers with the half-blood elf guards at the holy water pool.

Alice has gained a lot of praise in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp.

Leah found that Alice has been saying one thing and another recently. During the day, she smiled and said to Leah, "If I can live in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp forever, it would be great..." At night, Alice would mutter in her sleep, "She doesn't want to be trapped in the dark land for life. It would be great if she had the opportunity to go to the elf continent..."

Leah began to be a little confused about what Alice was thinking in her heart.

Alice was relatively normal during the day. Leah had nothing to do recently and was quite bored in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp.

"... Do you want to go to the Elf Continent with me?"

Roy opened the curtain outside the tent and asked Leah and Alice inside the tent.

"Okay!" Leah answered very straightforwardly and decisively.

"Ah! It's too troublesome, I'd better forget it!" Alice said with some entanglement.

Two different voices...

Roy hesitated for a moment and said to the two sisters: "I just have to go to Partington Island in the Elf Continent to do something. I guess I will be back soon. If you two want to go to the Elf Continent, now is a good opportunity. If you don't want to go, then stay here in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp..."

"I want to go to the Elf Continent." Leah said with a face full of longing.

Then Leah hurriedly shook Alice's arm and said to her: "Alice, let's go together."

Alice bit her lip, lowered her head and hesitated for a long time before slowly nodding.

...

Roy was arranging the half-blood elf guards in the tent, and the great magician Grams seemed to come to visit.

He walked directly into the tent and asked Roy loudly:

"Roy, I heard that you are going back to the Elf Continent to deal with some things?"

"Yes, I will return to Golfito soon, and then take the magic airship to Partington Island." Roy replied.

The great magician Grams said:

"Teacher Elaud has something to deal with here, and he can't leave for the time being. He specially asked me to return to the Elf Continent with you and asked me to take time to take you to visit the inscription master and ask him to tailor a set of magic pattern construction for you. I will be responsible for this matter to the end..."

Roy waved his hand, indicating that the half-blood elf guards in the tent could go out to prepare for this trip...

Then he asked excitedly: "Can I use the leather of the frost dragon to make a set of heavy leather armor base this time?"

"No problem, just look at my arrangement when the time comes."

Grand Mage Grems patted his chest and assured Roy...

After discussing this matter, Grand Mage Grems was about to leave. Roy sent Grand Mage Grems to the door of the tent and asked him casually:

"Speaking of this, on the battlefield of the Dragon's Throat Expeditionary Camp, weren't there three liches in the black fog behind the Nakma Demon Army? Why did Grand Mage Cedric and his men only bring back two?"

"In fact, we only need six liches this time. If we catch more, we have nowhere to deal with them. It's better to deal with them directly on the battlefield." Grand Mage Grems said bluntly.

"..."

Roy was a little speechless. It turned out that they were hunted down because they were no longer needed.

Grand Mage Gremus walked out of the tent and reminded Roy as he walked away:

"Remember to call me when you leave."

...

After dealing with the matters at the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp,

Roy took Leah and Alice to the Dark Gate Mage Rest Area, and met Grand Mage Gremus as agreed. A group of people returned to the back garden of the Statue of Liberty Temple in Golfito Canyon through the Dark Gate.

Roy was going to find Commander Gabrez in person and ask him to issue a certificate of going out, so that he could leave the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp.

Roy met Commander Gabrez who was busy signing documents in the main hall.

He looked up and saw Roy, and immediately ordered his attendant to bring a piece of magic parchment, and signed his name on it with just a few strokes.

This time, Commander Gabrez signed the most refreshingly.

Roy took the certificate of going out and immediately said goodbye to Commander Gabrez.

After leaving the main hall of the Statue of Liberty, Roy met up with everyone in the garden in front of the temple...

It was the first time for the sisters Leah and Alice to see the lush plants in the garden, which had many species of plants.

Leah stood beside the pool in the center of the front yard, looking at the neatly trimmed plants around her. She suddenly felt a burning sensation in her body. Leah quickly took out the magic cloak from the package and put it on to isolate the faint holy light outside.

Alice lifted her long skirt, threw off her shoes, walked barefoot into the knee-deep pool, and then walked towards the Statue of Liberty in the pool step by step.

Alice looked up, stared at the statue for a long time, and finally lowered her head and stood in front of the statue in silence.

When Roy came back, Alice asked Roy in a low voice:

"Is that the Statue of Liberty?"

Roy nodded and replied, "That's right."

"But now the Holy Light of the Statue of Liberty can no longer reach the Elf Continent." Roy added in a low voice.

The Great Magician Grimes stood at the door of the Temple of Liberty and waited for everyone to come out, then said to Roy:

"Roy, are you leaving Golfito Canyon on a magic airship this time?"

Roy nodded...

"Then I'll wait for you at the pier by the lake."

After speaking, Archmage Grimes walked straight towards the entrance of Golfito Canyon.

…

It was the first time that Leah saw the emerald green mountain peaks, the first time she stepped on the soft green grass, the first time she saw the garden full of flowers...

She walked on the path of Golfito Canyon, and every time she took a deep breath, she seemed to want to suck all the air into her body.

"It turns out that this is the Elf Continent. It's so beautiful here. Alice, I want to stay here..."

Leah moved closer to Alice and whispered to Alice.

Although Alice was silently observing her surroundings at the moment, she was not using her body to perceive the surrounding environment like Leah. There were even two voices in her heart, one of which was the ray of spiritual thought that invaded her body. , at this moment, Shen Nian roared somewhat hysterically:

"Hurry up and give your body to me and let me control your body, so that I can restore the power of the Holy Light in the shortest time. The power of the Holy Light here is so abundant, hurry up and release me..."

Another voice in Alice's body stood up to refute:

"Don't give your body to her. She just wants to take over your body and then drive you out of it. Don't believe her..."

Alice covered her head that was about to explode with both hands and walked forward silently.

Leah soon noticed something strange about Alice, and asked her worriedly: "Alice, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Alice shook her head quickly...

…

At this time, Roy led the two of them to the camp of the Second Silver Pegasus Knights.

Captain Malthus of the Second Silver Pegasus Knights specifically told Roy that when he passed by Golfito Canyon, he must stop for a while at the Silver Pegasus Knights' camp.

Roy walked in, and sure enough Captain Malthus was waiting for him in the camp.

"Roy, when you come into contact with the Silver Moon Elf nobles, try to say as little as possible and do as little as possible. In addition, there are many ways to solve the problem. Remember not to let conflicts intensify." Captain Malthus warned Roy.

Captain Malthus also gave some letters to Roy, entrusting him to take back these letters written by the Silver Pegasus knights, and then forward them to Castleton City...
