Path of Light.

Chapter 562 563. Long time no see
In the magic herb market, a high-grade winter thorn grass is worth about three hundred magic crystals. No matter how much the price rises, it will never rise to six hundred magic crystals per plant.

A primary Demon King Grass is worth about fifty Koler, so its price can easily rise to one hundred Koler.

In order to help the half-blood elves in the Partington plane solve their economic difficulties, Roy stockpiled a large amount of primary magic herbs in the warehouse. Therefore, when the imperial merchants came to Castletown Port by ship, Roy made a lot of money.

Earl Swinburne left half of the mine income on the Pagisto Plateau to Roy, hoping that he could use the money to form a half-elf mine guard.

In fact, when Earl Swinburne made this promise, he just hoped that Roy could firmly hold the three spinel mines in the southern part of the Pagisto Plateau. Of course, if he could also hold the two mithril mines in the Sudarso Mountains, it would be a surprise for Earl Swinburne.

After all, the Silver Pegasus Legion at that time was unable to deal with the Pagisto Plateau Headhunters...

No one expected that Roy would lead the mine guards to completely defeat the headhunters on the Pagisto Plateau and take over all the mines on the plateau in one go.

The profits from these mines will allow the mine guards to wear the standard armor of the Silver Moon Elf warriors...

But Roy happened to have a business of primary magic herbs. In this way, Roy not only had spare money to transform the magic airship, but also purchased 5,000 sets of magic armor from the Silver Moon Elf Armaments Warehouse. Although these magic armors of excellent quality were far inferior to the magic pattern structures, they were also the best armor sets that the Elf Guard could be equipped with.

Siagran did not evaluate Roy from a positive perspective. She only introduced Roy's primary magic herb trade. In addition, Roy himself was the governor of the Pagisto Plateau, which was enough to explain a lot of things...

For example, Roy currently controls all the mines on the Pagista Plateau. Earl Swinburne knows this, and it was he who made the promise to Roy in person.

Roy was running a business of primary magic herbs in the Partington plane, and Earl Swinburne also knew that it was he who issued Roy the business license...

But he never thought about these two things together, which led to his wrong understanding of Roy's current financial resources.

"Roy, is he so rich?"

Lord Swinburne took a deep breath and asked doubtfully.

Siaglan sat in the chair and nodded slightly.

Lord Swinburne looked at Miss Christine, who was now his assistant.

"Let Captain Berkeley come in."

Miss Christine hurried out of the office, and sure enough, Captain Berkeley was still waiting in the hall outside and had not left.

Captain Berkeley knocked on the door, then pushed open the door and walked into Earl Swinburne's office. Standing at the door, he asked guiltily:

"My Lord, you are looking for me?"

Earl Swinburne nodded and waved to him, asking Captain Berkeley to sit in the chair next to Siagram.

"How many mine guards does Roy have on the Pagisto Plateau?" Earl Swinburne asked Captain Berkeley.

Captain Berkeley didn't dare to hide anything about this.

Besides, the number of Roy's troops on the Padstow Plateau had already been reported to the Padstow Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters.

Captain Berkeley immediately replied:

"The number of mine guards Roy reported to the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters was 10,000, but in fact, he currently has about 10,000 half-blood elf guards and 2,000 half-blood elf reserve soldiers under his command."

"Because there are 12,000 headhunters held in the prisoner-of-war concentration camp in Plateau City, there are about 8,000 half-elf warriors stationed in the mine guards in Plateau City. In addition, there are 4,000 elven warriors responsible for encircling and suppressing the remaining headhunters on the Pagisto Plateau."

"In addition, he also applied to General Kempfred to form a highland guard corps of 5,000 elven warriors, but the application has not been approved yet, so gradually the matter of the guard corps has been shelved." Earl Swinburne then remembered that the number of half-elven warriors in the Partington Plane Mine Guard Corps had indeed been reported to the Legion Headquarters, but he just didn't think of it for a while.

Seeing that Lord Swinburne said nothing, Captain Berkeley coughed lightly and added:
"Now he has to allocate an army to garrison Sun Island Bay."

Earl Swinburne found that the problem that had been bothering him suddenly seemed to be solvable.

Then he turned to Captain Berkeley and asked:
"Is Roy in Padstow?"

"Yes!"

Lord Swinburne waved his hand to Captain Berkeley and said, "Bring him to me!"

"Yes, I will go and inform him right away. He should be responsible for receiving the goods at the airport terminal."

Captain Berkeley immediately stood up, turned around and quickly left the office.

……

Captain Berkeley mounted his horse and, led by two half-elf warriors, soon arrived at the airport terminal in Padstow.

Roy was still sitting in the tea restaurant, by the window alone, staring at the sea of ​​trees in the distance.

Captain Berkeley walked over, sat down opposite Roy, and said to him:

“Some things can’t be avoided. Sometimes, instead of being forced to accept, it may not be a bad thing to be proactive!”

"Got it. My attitude will definitely be correct this time!" Since Captain Berkeley was sent to find him, Roy knew he couldn't escape this time.

"How does the Earl plan to deal with this matter?" Roy asked.

Captain Berkeley said casually: "General Kempfred has been driven out of the Partington plane by him. I guess those half-blood elf warriors will also be punished."

Roy nodded, and then asked tentatively: "My Lord Earl, what do you want me to do this time?"

Captain Berkeley said, "I think you will be sent to an outer island of the Queen Islands and stationed there for a while."

Roy scratched his head in embarrassment and whispered, "I only have so many mine guards. Even guarding the plateau seems a bit weak. How can I have the energy to garrison the outer islands of the Queen Eweni Islands!"

Captain Berkeley did not answer, but patted Roy on the shoulder and said, "I don't think you can escape this time. You must be mentally prepared."

The two left the tea restaurant at the airport terminal and rode towards the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters.

……

Walking into the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters lobby, the group of Silver Moon Elf female receptionists at the front desk of the lobby cast curious eyes at Roy...

Captain Berkeley took Roy upstairs. At the top staircase, Roy saw Miss Christine wearing a full set of thorn-tail crystal lion leather armor. Roy waved to her and said hello, "Long time no see!"

Miss Christine smiled brightly and responded:
"Long time no see, Captain Roy!"
