Path of light

Chapter 724 725. Recruitment

The prisoner-of-war concentration camp on the south bank of the Tolai River in Plateau City currently holds 25,000 headhunters from the Plateau, and as Captain Helic advances towards the northern ice field, the number of headhunters is still increasing.

The first magic airship that brought 800 gray dwarf prisoners did not attract the attention of the elves in Plateau City, but in the following half a day, ten more magic airships arrived in Plateau City.

The gray dwarves who got off the magic airships lined up in a long queue in the city and walked along the bluestone paved road to the prisoner-of-war concentration camp.

In Plateau City, it is rare to see eleven magic airships arrive at the airport terminal in one day.

When the magic airships continued to dock at the only platform at the airport terminal, the elves in the city finally realized that there were a lot of gray dwarf prisoners in Plateau City...

The queue stretched from the prisoner-of-war concentration camp by the river to the airport terminal.

The half-elf women gathered by the pool, watching the gray dwarf prisoners walking along the street. In the past, there were only dozens or hundreds of gray dwarf prisoners in the Highland City, but this time the whole street was lined up in a long line.

A half-elf woman approached the half-elf guard guarding the street corner and asked him: "Angias, why are there so many gray dwarves in the city?"

The half-elf guard turned his head and looked at the half-elf woman. He immediately recognized that the half-elf woman was his landlady. She had a two-story building in the Highland City, and the tenants of the building were almost all half-elfs from Padstow City.

The half-blood elf guard replied:

"Lady Anjina, I heard that these gray dwarf prisoners were captured by Boss Roy from the battlefield of Queen Ewenni Islands, and now they are sent to various mines for us to mine."

"Let the gray dwarves go to mine, what will the half-blood elves in the mine do? Now there are many half-blood elves who are working in the mines to make a living."

The half-blood elf woman named Jaina asked immediately.

Both of her lovers are miners in the plateau mines. As a master of time management, it can only be said that Lady Jaina's schedule is not full.

"I don't know about this, Lady Jaina, I am the city guard in the plateau city."

Anqias replied, and then he seemed to remember something, and then he said:

"I heard that Lord Archon Mulin is recruiting half-blood elf guards in the city again, and the recruitment point is in the square in front of the city hall."

"Is it the mine guard regiment recruiting soldiers, or the city guard regiment of the plateau city recruiting soldiers?" Lady Jaina asked with her eyes rolled.

This young half-blood elf was too honest. He ignored all the little hints Lady Jaina had given him before. Then Lady Jaina's favorability towards him plummeted. The two were destined not to be on the same path.

"Uh... is there any difference?"

"Of course! There is still a big difference!"

Lady Jaina's voice becomes sharp and thin when she speaks a little faster, but it must be said that her voice is very sexy.

"The Mine Guard is the direct army of Boss Roy. They can follow Boss Roy everywhere. The City Defense Guard can only stand guard in the city. What future does it have!"

After saying this, Lady Jaina turned around and returned to a group of women next to the fountain at the corner of the street.

Anqias seemed to be stabbed in the back. He stood stupidly on the street, thinking:

'Should I also apply to the leader to join Boss Roy's Mine Guard and follow Boss Roy to fight everywhere. '

After this idea came into his mind, it was like grass growing, and he wanted to run directly to the City Hall Square to sign up.

When Lady Jaina returned to the group of women, a group of elven women also began to discuss enthusiastically.

…

The red-bearded gray dwarf arrived at the Plateau City on the fifth magic airship, looking down at the Plateau City at his feet. The Plateau City standing by the river looked very small, but the wilderness in the south of the Plateau City was very vast, with tens of thousands of one-horned bison running on the vast wilderness.

The endless mountains around extended to all directions, and even snow could be seen on the top of the mountain.

Leaving the tropical rainforest and coming to the plateau, this is the environment that the gray dwarves prefer, especially the mountains and snow.

The gray dwarf prisoners of war whispered about where this plane was. Everyone leaned against the side of the ship and stared at the vast land under their feet with wide eyes.

During the days of being prisoners of war, the gray dwarves did not seem to be treated harshly by the elves except for eating sour green apples every day.

Therefore, the mood of the gray dwarf prisoners was relatively stable. After experiencing the failure of the battle of Queen Ewenni Islands, morale dropped to the lowest point, and no gray dwarf prisoners tried to escape from the prison camp.

Some gray dwarves tried, but were dissuaded by other gray dwarves because it would only kill other companions.

The life span of gray dwarves is very long, and no one wants to die. And the most important thing is that there is no death penalty in the elf world, as long as you don't commit suicide...

On the magic airship, a half-blood elf captain stood on the platform on the top of the ship. He held the railing with both hands and shouted to the gray dwarf prisoners on the deck:

"Dear guests from foreign countries, welcome to Pagisto. As the captain of the magic airship No. 7 and a half-blood elf from the Pagisto Plateau, please allow me to introduce this beautiful plateau to you."

"This is the Pagisto Plateau in the Partington plane. The destination you are about to reach is a beautiful plateau city with rich mineral resources, so most of you will be sent to various mines. field and participate in ore mining.”

"I know you are used to this kind of life."

Before the captain finished speaking, he heard a gray dwarf prisoner on the deck shouting:

"Dwarves only like mining. We are gray dwarves, and we are born bandits..."

Before the gray dwarf prisoner could finish his words, he was knocked unconscious by a gray dwarf behind him with his fist, and the deck suddenly became quiet again.

At this moment, the magic airship has broken through the clouds and is falling slowly.

"What I want to say here is that when you arrive at Plateau City, there will be a census. This is not to know your detailed information, but we lack some craftsmen who are good at forging here. I know there must be some among you. There are people who are good at this, and I hope you will step forward and show us what you are capable of.”

"Only by becoming a blacksmith in our smelting workshop will you know how comfortable it is to live on the Pagisto Plateau."

"First of all, our forging workshop will provide rum to the forging craftsmen every week, and occasionally ale, because Boss Roy likes to drink ale. Of course, if you want to taste pre-dinner drinks such as apple cider or orange wine , as long as you work hard, you can drink it almost every day.”

"Of course, in order to be able to drink freely, you need to become a blacksmith."

"In addition, the forging craftsmen have clean dormitories. They can take a shower and comb their beards every day. They will earn certain points for every day's work. When you accumulate 100 points, you can exchange them for a day's rest. During this time, you are free and can ask for help from the smelters. The workshop applied to go to the plateau city or go hunting in the wilderness."

"Of course, the daily points can also be exchanged for other things, such as exquisite flasks, pipes, wear-resistant and sturdy miner boots, warm blankets or cow legs."

"Although these benefits are also available in the mine, the types of rewards are far less than those in the forging workshop, so I hope that dwarves with forging skills will actively sign up."

"Okay, the magic airship is about to arrive at the beautiful and fertile plateau city. I wish you all have a relaxed and good mood in the coming days."

The half-blood elf put his hand on his chest and bowed gracefully to the gray dwarf prisoners of war.

All the sails on the magic airship were lowered, and the propulsion device at the tail was turned on. The magic airship adjusted its position in mid-air and began to approach the only airport terminal in the plateau city.

In the city below, gray dwarf prisoners of war were moving in a long procession towards the prisoner of war concentration camp by the river.

…

Roy and Mullin stood on the terrace in front of the city hall, from where they could have a bird's eye view of the entire plateau city.

In the square of the city hall, a large number of young mixed-race elves were queuing up, waiting to register as elves working in the Soldier Recruitment Office. The waiting line stretched from the square to the other side of the street.

This is completely different from the empty situation in Padstow City's recruiting office.

Mu Lin said to Roy with some envy:

"After all, the reputation of the Mine Guard Group is so great that it only took half a day to gather so many mixed elves. When I formed the Mine Guard Group before, it took nearly half a month of recruitment before I could barely put together a guard group."

Roy looked at Mu Lin's unconvinced look, smiled and said to Mu Lin:

"I think it may be that the number of elves in Plateau City has increased sharply, which makes it easy to recruit new soldiers in Plateau City."

Mu Lin frowned, and there was a trace of playfulness on her plain face.

"In the past, mixed-blood elves could not build an army. Although there were Silver Moon Elf guard warriors in the Partington plane, they did not protect the mixed-blood elves. When we first came to Partington, we felt that it was the same everywhere. We discussed it After a while, we walked south along the Padstow Forest until we encountered the Griffin Barrier Mountains. When we saw the mountains rising into the clouds, we walked westward through the hilly areas to Padstow."

It must have been a difficult time. When Mu Lin talked about these things, there was some sadness in her eyes.

"It was a hard time, wasn't it?"

"Well, my mother died on the way."

Mu Lin was a little depressed, then she secretly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and continued:

"Now that we can form an army on the Partington plane, it is a big change for the mixed elves. At least it allows us to live a better life on the Pagisto Plateau."

Perhaps she had been a consul for too long, so she pursed her lips to calm down her emotions as quickly as possible.

When standing next to Roy, she would straighten her waist as much as possible...

The eyes looking into the distance are also full of longing for the future.
