Path of light

Chapter 702 703. Encounter on a ship

There are not many half-elves living in the elf world. This group is usually silent in the elf world, but they will be discriminated against by half-blood elves.

This is a very morbid discrimination chain...

Half-elves are at the bottom of the discrimination chain. Half-blood elves look down on half-elves, and pure-blood elves look down on half-blood elves, but some do not hate half-elves so much.

Among pure-blood elves, Silver Moon elves feel that they are superior to the other two elves because they are of noble origin.

The Dark Moon elves living in the Evernight Forest in the north of the Elf Continent are the most exclusive, and the Wood Elves living around the World Tree in Darnassus are the most tolerant...

The moment Roy boarded the deck of the medium-sized sailing ship, he felt that some half-blood elves were looking at him with scrutiny. He was worried that he would be recognized by the half-blood elves. After boarding the ship, he sat at the stern of the medium-sized sailing ship and watched a few seabirds flying between several medium-sized sailing ships, as if looking for small bull's eye snails in the gaps of the ships.

These seabirds are not afraid of elves at all. When they are tired of flying, they will land on the railings and masts to rest.

Roy sat at the stern, feeling a little bored.

Waiting for the high tide to rise, the medium-sized sailboat will leave the port with the tide.

He took out a handful of elf biscuit crumbs from his magic waist bag, pinched a little with his right finger and stretched it to the seabird on the railing.

The seabird looked at Roy with its eyes, then fluttered over, pecking the food at the tip of Roy's finger like a dragonfly skimming the water...

The seabird's action immediately attracted other seabirds to follow suit, and they all flew towards Roy.

There were some active half-blood elf children on the deck. They couldn't even find a place to play on the crowded ship. At this time, some children saw a group of seabirds around Roy, so they curiously came over and looked at the seabirds in front of Roy who were constantly fighting for food with envy.

Several half-blood elves sat on a bench, with some shabby luggage piled under their feet, discussing things about the Partington plane.

"My sister is currently living in Padstow, Partington. Half a year ago, she wrote to me, suggesting that I give up my house and job in Istanbul and move my family to Partington. I was a little hesitant at the time. Later, many half-blood elves left Istanbul one after another. There are fewer and fewer half-blood elves living there. The wages have not increased, but the workload has increased by nearly one-fold. Last month, I sold my house and furniture in Istanbul and raised enough money to go to Partington. Then I came to Castleton..."

A half-blood elf is talking about his moving experience.

In fact, Roy admires such elves. They have houses and jobs in their original cities. Although it is hard, they are stable. They are just dissatisfied with the oppression of the Silver Moon elves and the current living conditions. They have the courage to give up everything and take their families thousands of miles to a completely unfamiliar environment.

Speaking of which, this may be because the elves have always had free blood flowing in their bodies...

They dare to give up their original things and dare to challenge the new life.

Another half-blood elf seemed more worried and anxious. He muttered in a low voice:

"I heard that the half-blood elf population in Padstow City has exceeded one million. Now there are no seedlings of magic herbs in Padstow Forest. If you want to collect magic herbs, you have to enter the Blackwater Swamp. Only in the depths of the Blackwater Swamp can you find high-level herbs. Do you know what kind of dangers there are in the Blackwater Swamp? The poisonous horn black anaconda thicker than your waist, the swamp dragon fly flying faster than a falcon, if these high-level monsters set their sights on us, we may not even be able to run away..."

Obviously, he has some understanding of the Partington plane, but it is not comprehensive, and his mood is somewhat negative.

Several half-blood elves who don't know much about the Partington plane panicked.

"What can we do after we go to the Partington plane?"

"In fact, there are many jobs to choose from, but the competition for good jobs is also fierce. At present, the easiest job to find in the Partington plane is high-level carpentry, and it is best to have experience in building wooden houses..."

A middle-aged half-blood elf leaning on the railing introduced to the half-blood elf in front of him.

Roy turned his head and saw a team of elf guards passing by the dock. They were all familiar faces. He was about to come to the side of the ship and wave to them, but suddenly realized that he had a scarf on his face, so he took his hand back in dismay.

A half-elf girl stood beside Roy curiously, raised her little face and looked at him. She hid her hands behind her back, looking very cute.

Roy smiled and squatted down, stretched out his hand to pinch the girl's smooth face, and asked:

"What's your name?"

"Erin." The little girl answered timidly.

"It's a nice name."

"Are you feeding the birds?" The little girl stared at the half elf cookie in Roy's hand and asked with pursed lips.

Roy blinked and put half of the elf cookie in the little girl's hand.

"Guess!"

"... No."

The elf girl's pointed ears shook slightly, her big eyes rolled around, looking elf-like and weird, and she quickly put half of the cookie into her pocket.

A bell rang from the mast of a medium-sized sailing ship. This was the bell before the medium-sized sailing ship set sail.

A half-elf woman stood not far away, staring at Roy with a vigilant look on her face, making Roy look like a dirty uncle who was fishing for goldfish with a little girl.

Roy could only sit on the bench and waved to the little girl secretly...

When the two half-elf men came to the half-elf woman, the half-elf woman had the courage to come over, grabbed the little girl's arm, and then stared at Roy coldly, scolding him:

"Put away your tricks, if I see you sneaking up on my daughter again, I will break your legs!" The half-elf woman in front of Roy was speechless.

"Madam, how did I sneak up on your daughter? I have been sitting here since I got on the boat, and I haven't even moved. Is it a bit too much for you to say this?" Roy whispered.

The half-elf woman bent down and took out half an elf biscuit from the little girl's pocket, and said angrily: "Didn't you give this to her?"

"What can half an elf biscuit prove?" Roy asked in confusion.

At this time, many half-elfs had already surrounded the stern.

"Who would give such an expensive thing to a child they have never met? I suspect you are a slave trader who sells children to the human world." The half-blood elf woman pointed at Roy and said loudly.

The half-blood elves watching were immediately in an uproar. At this time, an elf was heard accusing the crew:

"How could there be a slave trader on this ship?"

"Crew, crew!... Drive him off before the ship sets sail." The surroundings immediately became noisy.

Two elf crew members squeezed in and began to appease the half-blood elf lady who was a little angry.

"Madam, please calm down and let us understand the situation at that time."

The two crew members did not take any action against Roy immediately, but turned to Roy and asked:

"Sir, do you have anything to explain?"

At this moment, Roy felt that when trouble came, he really couldn't get rid of it. He pulled the black scarf covering his mouth and nose and said:

"I was just sitting here to rest. This little girl came over. I said a few words to her and gave her half an elf cookie. That's how it happened. I didn't take the initiative to talk to any elves."

Roy spread his hands to prove his innocence.

"If he is really as innocent as he said, why did he still cover himself with a scarf when he was on the boat? Everyone, come and see his ears. Is it necessary for a human to cover himself like this when he is on an elf ship?"

The half-blood elf lady's voice became louder. Surrounded by a group of half-blood elves, she straightened her back.

At this time, the second bell on the ship rang...

...

Time went back to a few minutes ago...

After the first departure bell of the medium-sized sailing ship rang, the crew began to busy themselves with the tasks before sailing.

An elf crew member untied the rope tied to the dock pillar and pulled the wrist-thick rope back with force. Several crew members raised the heavy sails at this time.

There was also wind in the port, and soon the sails were blown up...

The ship became a little tilted under the force of the wind, and the mast beam on the ship even made a creaking sound.

The two crew members at the stern quickly accelerated the capstan to pull up the heavy anchor.

The medium-sized sailing ship slowly left the dock...

Just then, two silver moon elf guards riding white horses rushed over from the port dock. The two elf guards pointed at the crew on the medium-sized sailing ship and shouted:

"Where is the destination of this ship?"

"Partington Island!" Someone answered loudly.

"Hurry up and dock, we also want to take a boat to Partington Island." The silver moon elf guard said loudly.

Although the captain was somewhat reluctant, he did not dare to offend the Silver Moon Elf guards, so he asked the crew to lower the sails and throw the ropes back to the dock. Everyone worked together to pull the medium-sized sailing ship back to the dock.

At this time, a silver carriage hurriedly drove in from outside the port and stopped in front of the medium-sized sailing ship.

Miss Christine got out of the carriage, followed by two maids.

Four Silver Moon Elf guards jumped off their war horses, handed the reins to the two companions behind them, and followed Miss Christine to the medium-sized sailing ship.

White face,

Blue eyes,

Red lips,

Soft blonde hair,

Apricot yellow long skirt set off her beautiful figure, Miss Christine exuded a luxurious atmosphere from head to toe.

The medium-sized sailing ship re-laid the sampan, and Miss Christine, surrounded by six Silver Moon elves, hurriedly walked onto the sailing ship...

The ship seemed very crowded, and the deck was full of half-blood elf civilians.

The captain came out from the ship's tower and asked Miss Christine to rest in the captain's room, but Miss Christine did not accept the captain's kindness. She went straight to the roof along the stairs and occupied a space in a corner at the end of the roof.

Two maids silently brought out a folding chair and an exquisite small round table, and Miss Christine sat down on the roof of the ship.

Four Silver Moon Elf guards stood beside Miss Christine, blocking the view of all the elves on the top of the ship.
