Path of Light.

Chapter 140 141. Meeting at the Port
On the eve of dawn, Priest Theodore didn't notice that a nightsaber and Roy were following behind...

With the thrust of the river, Priest Theodore swam all the way down the river, and actually swam back to the Darne River Bridge on Brown Street. This is where Roy jumped into the river, and further ahead is the estuary.

Finding that the elf patrols did not catch up from behind, the wet Priest Theodore climbed up the stone steps by the river exhausted.

He was wet all over, and when he climbed to the river, he even choked on two mouthfuls of water.

The magical effect of the scroll of 'Water Control' slowly disappears, and the webbed hands and flippers that grow out quickly disappear...

There was still a sword wound on Priest Theodore's thigh. He leaned against the steps exhaustedly and quickly cast the 'Blessing of Power' and 'Holy Light' before climbing up from the stone steps.

In the morning there was a thick mist rising from the sea, which spread over the beach, and affected Brown Street a little.

Priest Theodore wiped the river water from his face, leaving a row of wet footprints on the stone steps, which quickly disappeared into the mist.

A few minutes later, a wet nightsaber emerged from the river, and it dragged Roy to the edge of the stone steps with difficulty...

The wet footprints left by Priest Theodore had become somewhat blurred, but the Nightsaber immediately recognized the footprints left by Priest Theodore, and chased after them in the direction in which the footprints extended.

Roy, on the other hand, was sitting on the stone steps with some exhaustion. If it wasn't for pulling the nightsaber's tail along the way, Roy would not have been able to catch up so quickly with his own strength...

He sat on the cold slate and took a few breaths.

Then he blessed himself with the 'Blessing of Power', and then he stood up and chased after the night saber.

Roy found himself swimming all the way back to Brown Street along the Darne River. At this time, the fog had just risen, and no one could be seen on the street.

Fortunately, there was a night saber leading the way, so Roy quickly chased after him...

……

Priest Theodore climbed ashore and walked quickly towards the port pier.

His right leg was slashed by the elf guard, and the wound healed a little through the treatment of 'Holy Light'.

At least the bleeding has stopped, but he is still a little limping when he walks...

He secretly found a tree house by the Dane River, hoping that he could use the water channel of the Dane River to get out of trouble when he was in danger...

In fact, this tree house did bring a lot of convenience to Priest Theodore.

I don't know what clues the elf patrols followed to find this place. When Priest Theodore woke up from his dream, several elf patrols had already rushed into his bedroom.

If Priest Theodore hadn't been quick-witted and escaped through the window, he might have been caught by the elf patrols of the guards in the morning.

He ran to the river at the first time, used a magic scroll of 'Water Control', jumped into the water, and returned to Brown Street as fast as possible.

This is also the place Priest Theodore is most familiar with. Half a month ago, he booked a boat ticket at the port, and today happened to be the day when the sea-going ship left the port.

Priest Theodore supported his thigh with one hand, and limped quickly towards the port pier...

Fortunately, there was a scroll of 'Water Control', which allowed him to escape from the hands of the elf patrols.

The closer he was to the pier, the more excited he felt.

When walking quickly to the pier, I saw a row of large ships moored in the deep water area in the mist. Priest Theodore quickened his pace...

He was looking for a ship called Gold in the mist.

For the first time, I felt that the pier in the deep water area of ​​Castletown was a bit long, and the sea ships seemed to be unable to reach the end.

Priest Theodore walked for a while, and saw a sea ship covered with countless oysters and barnacles parked beside the pier, and a touch of gold appeared on the flag high on the mast, although most of the ship was hidden In the mist, Priest Theodore still recognized it at a glance. This was the Golden Ship he was looking for.

There was joy in his eyes...

Walking quickly to the golden ship, Priest Theodore felt that even his steps became lighter.

With such a thick fog, there was no one chasing after him, and there was no one on the pier at the port. He quickly approached the Gold, and took the ticket he bought a few days ago in his hand.

He wanted to get in and show the ticket to the Gold's crew.

……

With the nightsaber leading the way, Roy quickly crossed Brown Street.

In order to pass by the gate of the Statue of Liberty, Roy made a quick detour. He ran to the gate and quickly said a few words to Abbott, and then chased after him in the direction of the port pier.

Roy, who came to the pier in the deep water area and was out of breath, finally saw Priest Theodore.

At this moment, Priest Theodore was grumbling, holding a green ticket in his hand, and was waving vigorously at a sailor standing at the bow...

The sailor was cleaning the ram of the bow, but he didn't hear Priest Theodore's call, holding the ticket.

Priest Theodore could only get closer. At this moment, Roy ran out of the fog, followed by the night saber...

Roy stood behind Priest Theodore and shouted, "Priest Theodore, please wait a moment."

Priest Theodore ignored Roy, held the ticket high and continued on his way.

Roy immediately caught up and said again to Priest Theodore's back: "You took the Holy Grail of Wisdom from the temple, you have to keep the Holy Grail."

Priest Theodore seemed to be unable to hear Roy's words at all, but this time he took two steps, stopped suddenly, turned and looked at Roy indifferently...

Roy mustered up his courage and chased after him again.

Priest Theodore stopped this time and turned to stare at Roy coldly...

His eyes fell on Roy, and a hoarse voice came out of his throat:

"Roy, why are you doing this...you still have time to turn around and go back!"

Although he said so, the scepter in his hand quickly drew a divine pattern, and the prayer he recited was very familiar to Roy.

'Hammer of Judgment'

A hammer made of holy light suddenly floated on Priest Theodore's chest...

Priest Theodore pointed his finger at Roy, and the Hammer of Light was like a bolt of lightning, hitting Roy's chest.

The Hammer of Holy Light hit the round wooden shield in Roy's hand.

Immediately, the newly received round wooden shield was smashed to pieces by the Hammer of Holy Light...

Roy was also knocked back a few steps by the huge momentum created by the Hammer of Light, and fell to the pier.

The nightsaber guarding Roy immediately rushed towards Priest Theodore, with two sharp teeth showing in its open mouth...
