Path of light

Chapter 715 716. Letter of Appointment

Thinking of Captain Helike who fought in the snowy environment, Roy admired his leadership ability very much.

In fact, if possible, Roy would like to have Captain Helike come to Sun Island Bay, and let him command the elf warriors of the mine guards, while Captain Tiprado would be in charge of the Griffin Cavalry.

However, considering Captain Helike's identity as a rebel, Roy knew that doing so would make the Silver Moon Elf nobles even more dissatisfied.

Originally, his reputation among the Silver Moon Elf nobles was already very bad. If he transferred a rebel general to Sun Island Bay, it was very likely that the Silver Moon Elf nobles would make a fuss about it and send him to the Buenos Aires Senior Elf Elders Council.

After thinking about it, I decided to forget it...

The population of Plateau City has skyrocketed in the past six months. The biggest reason is the notice Roy wrote on the bulletin board of the small square at the gate of Plateau City, which indirectly caused some half-blood elves from Padstow City to move here. The number of half-blood elves who moved here exceeded 200,000.

The Plateau City is now packed with people. Even if the prisoner-of-war concentration camp is moved outside the city, the city still seems a bit crowded.

The Plateau City is backed by the Tolai River and surrounded by the river on three sides. In addition, when the city was first built, various infrastructure projects in the city were taken into consideration. Therefore, after the city was filled with half-blood elves, it did not become a mess, but rather appeared to be in good order.

Roy walked on the street and heard the half-blood elves discussing the battle situation in Sun Island Bay.

Everyone was worried that the dark army would rush out of the sea, and many half-blood elves were very optimistic, believing that the dark army in the sea could not land and climb onto the Padstow Plateau.

Half-blood elves would discuss these wars on the streets. They were not worried that the Dark Army would attack the Padstow Plateau.

They were just worried that the appearance of the Dark Army in the Partington plane would cause a devastating blow to the ecology of the entire plane, such as the entire western sea area turning dark...

This change in the environment is definitely not a good thing for the elves.

...

The magic airship only stayed in the Plateau City for half a day, filled up a large number of magic metal ingots in the Plateau City, and quickly took off to Padstow City.

The biggest advantage of sailing on a magic airship is that it does not affect rest. Roy can have a good sleep in the cabin.

It was night when the magic airship arrived in Padstow City. The lights all over the mountains made this rapidly rising city form a long light belt in the dark night.

There are apple orchards around Padstow City. Roy can even smell the fragrance when he stands on the deck of the magic airship.

As the magic airship gradually lowered, the lights in front of him became clearer and clearer. The captain of the magic airship turned on the propulsion device at the stern and adjusted the glide trajectory of the magic airship during the descent.

Padstow is a forest city with very elf characteristics, with tree houses all over the mountains.

The lights at night came out from the tree houses. Looking down from the sky, Roy was a little dazzled and couldn't tell where was where...

After walking out of the magic airship, Roy found that he didn't even have a tree house of his own in Padstow. Every time he hurriedly passed by Padstow, he either stayed in a hotel or took the magic airship directly to the plateau city.

Arriving in Padstow so late, Roy could only find a tree house hotel in the city to stay.

Walking along the wide street, the most lively place at night is the tavern along the street. The half-blood elves also like to drink orange wine, which tastes sour and sweet and is very good.

Compared with orange wine, Roy prefers to drink ale brewed by the dwarves.

There are many hotels along the street, and in the wooden houses under the trees of these hotels, the receptionists are all young half-blood elf girls. These beautiful girls with pointed ears stand in front of the counter. Looking through the clean glass windows, they are clean and sweet in the warm light.

This city is showing Roy another kind of beauty, which Roy has never noticed.

The street is also brightly lit...

At this time, Roy thought of Moira who was studying at the Castletown Elf Academy. If Moira could be by his side on the brightly lit street, this night would probably be very wonderful.

The Elf Elders' Council is established on the Tree of Life in Padstow City, and the 17th Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters is also here.

The place where Roy and General Berkeley met was a tavern with soothing light music, but few elves who came here to sit for a while were here for real drinking, because a glass of orange wine here is really not cheap.

However, the environment in the tavern is very good, especially the half-blood elf beauties standing behind the bar selling drinks.

"Why did you come here suddenly? What's the situation in Sun Island Bay?"

General Berkeley sat on a chair by the window with a glass of wine in his hand and asked Roy.

This is a separate room. Through the dense branches and leaves on the treetops, you can see the lively street scene.

Many half-blood elves choose to run out at night. The night view of Padstow City is much more beautiful than during the day.

Roy leaned back in the chair with a glass of beer in front of him.

"There is a group of sea monsters blocking the front of Sun Island Bay. I provided them with some material assistance and built a defensive arrow tower in this area. The current situation is relatively stable..."

General Berkeley asked tentatively: "So you came to Padstow City, not to ask me to allocate a large amount of military supplies?"

Roy nodded: "Not for the time being, how is the Queen Eweni Islands?"

Hearing Roy ask this, General Berkeley frowned and took a sip of orange wine.

"The gray dwarf bandits are much more cunning than last time, but after all, we are the Silver Pegasus Corps, and we are well prepared this time. We will expand the scope of reconnaissance and attack their three-masted sailing ships from the air, but the gray dwarf bandits also installed crossbows on the three-masted sailing ships, which is also a great threat to our Silver Pegasus Knights."

"Because the Earl implemented a new policy on the Partington plane and made the half-blood elves members of the Elf Elder Council, they refused to send troops to the Queen Eweni Islands. They want the Earl to revoke the half-blood elf members of the Elder Council... before they will send more troops."

Roy didn't expect it to be like this. Earl Swinburne paid so much for the Partington plane.

"..."

Finally I know that the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion has been stationed in the Queen Ewenni Islands for so long, and has the strongest flying legion in the elven world, but it is still so conservative when facing the gray dwarf bandits...

What is the problem that Earl Swinburne is facing? The 17th Silver Pegasus Legion has been fighting alone.

No wonder the naval battle on the Queen Ewenni Islands has become so difficult. The reason is that Earl Swinburne implemented a new policy on the Partington plane.

Come to think of it, Lord Alvis has been operating the Partington plane for so many years. On the surface, he bought all the land in the Padstow Forest, and secretly controlled the entire Padstow Plateau and operated the business of selling elven slaves.

In fact, among the Silver Moon Elf nobles, a large part of the elves do not dislike Lord Alvis...

The Silver Moon Elf nobles appreciate Lord Alvis's attitude towards the half-blood elves. They generally believe that in the elven world, the biggest threat to the Silver Moon elves is still these half-blood elves.

Elves have low fertility, but half-blood elves are different. The fertility of half-blood elves has always been very stable.

Therefore, the population of half-blood elves has been steadily increasing over the years, and half-blood elves are considered a new force in the elf world.

Originally, the Silver Moon elves thought that half-blood elves were of humble origin, and they were born to serve the Silver Moon elves.

All along, half-blood elves have been doing the lowest level jobs in the elf world, night watchmen, gravediggers, and laborers responsible for maintaining the entire city, etc.

As the population of half-blood elves gradually increased, they began to have some new ideas.

The elves are worried that half-blood elves will squeeze their living space, but they also hope that some half-blood elves can stay in the city to do low-level jobs, and the rest of the half-blood elves can enter the plane to live.

They hope that half-blood elves can do the hardest and most tiring jobs, but they are also worried about their development and growth.

Constantly squeezing the living space of half-blood elves...

The population of half-blood elves is increasing, and some things cannot be suppressed. Now a large number of half-blood elves from the Elf Continent have poured into the Partington plane, so that many cities in the Silver Moon Kingdom of the Elf Continent lack low-level workers, and some cities cannot even operate normally.

At this time, there are still a large number of half-blood elves who have spent all their property and brought their families to the Partington plane.

This is also the root cause of many Silver Moon Elf nobles' dissatisfaction with Earl Swinburne...

The current situation in the Queen Eweni Islands is that the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion is facing the gray dwarf bandits alone.

As the situation in the Queen Eweni Islands continues to deteriorate, the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion is currently unable to split its forces. They need to shrink the front to the maximum extent and put all the remaining legions into the Queen Eweni Islands.

General Berkeley is the chief of logistics of the Silver Pegasus Legion and is naturally very familiar with the current situation.

"The gray dwarf fleet appeared in the outer waters of the Queen Eweni Islands. The first, third, and fourth Silver Pegasus Knights are in the outermost waters of the Queen Eweni Islands, encircling and clearing the three-masted sailing ships of the gray dwarf bandits..."

General Berkeley introduced to Roy, and he even took out a map and pointed to several areas of the Queen Eweni Islands.

Roy was a little surprised. He hadn't heard about the war in the Partington Islands for a long time. He thought the situation in the Queen Ivennie Islands had stabilized. He thought it was too simple.

"Is there anything...I can do?" Roy asked Captain Berkeley.

"Unless you can spare some manpower to reinforce the Queen Ivennie Islands and drive the gray dwarf bandits back like last time..."

Chief Berkeley replied.

Roy thought seriously and said firmly:

"In fact, I should be able to spare some manpower to help the Queen Ivennie Islands recently."

Chief Berkeley looked at Roy in surprise. He knew that Roy was dealing with the Dark Faceless Legion in the Sun Island Bay. In order to defeat the Dark Faceless Legion, Roy has been transporting a large amount of military supplies to the Sun Island Bay in recent months.

Now he can even take the initiative to propose to transfer some troops to support the Queen Eweni Islands...

This made General Berkeley's eyes widen, his mouth opened into an 'O' shape, and he whispered to Roy: "Are you serious?"

Roy nodded and said: "I didn't know the situation in the Queen Eweni Islands was so bad..."

"So what are you going to do?"

"I will call back the magic airships. For the shipping work between the two places, we will temporarily assign one magic airship to it. The other magic airships will follow me to the Queen Eweni Islands. Tomorrow, you will issue me a few teleportation passes for large magic airships to enter and exit the Partington plane."

Roy felt his throat was a little dry, took a sip of beer, and said to Chief Berkeley.

He thought for a moment and added, "This time I will let those gray dwarf bandits have a taste of power. It just so happens that there is a shortage of prisoner miners on the Padstow Plateau. This kind of mining work should be done by them."

"..."

This time it was Chief Berkeley's turn to be speechless...

...

The next morning, Roy came to the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters alone.

At present, the Elf Elders Council of Padstow City is located here. As a member of parliament, Roy still doesn't know where the office of the Elf Elders Council is.

He came to the service desk in the lobby on the first floor. A group of half-elf female receptionists recognized Roy. They thought he was looking for President Berkeley. Someone came out immediately and prepared to take Roy upstairs.

Roy stood at the reception desk and hesitated for a moment before asking:

"How can I get to the office of the Elven Elders Council?"

"Captain Roy, please follow me..." A half-elf beauty took the initiative to lead Roy. First, she counted the stairs to the second floor, and then walked through a long corridor.

When Roy passed through an arched door, he felt that the surrounding space was distorted for a moment, and then it returned to normal.

After passing through the arched door, he walked in the corridor for a while. The half-elf beauty took Roy to a trial room and said to Roy: "Captain Roy, this is the temporary office of the Elven Elders Council."

Roy knocked on the door, but did not hear anyone respond from inside.

He was considering whether to push the door open and take a look inside. The gorgeous door was pushed open by the elves from the inside. A Silver Moon Elf civil servant stood at the door and walked out quickly with a pile of documents.

When the civil servant saw Roy, he immediately knelt down to salute him.

"Is Council President Christine here?" Roy looked into the courtroom and asked the civil servant.

"Yes, are you Governor Roy on the Padstow Plateau?" the civil servant asked Roy.

"It's me!" Roy agreed.

"You came just in time. Council President Christine was going to send you an appointment document. I didn't expect you to come here in person." The female civil servant looked at Roy excitedly, and took out a piece of magic parchment from a pile of documents and handed it to Roy.

Roy took it and unfolded it in front of him. It was really an appointment letter, appointing Roy as a member of the Council of Elf Elders in Padstow City...
