Path of Light.

Chapter 595 596. Peeping
After Old Pike had dealt with the rotten flesh on another seriously injured man, he was about to ask Roy to come over and do the simpler bandaging, only to find that Roy, who was sitting on a chair next to him, had already treated all of the seriously injured man's wounds that were corroded by the dark energy. He even used needle and thread to carefully suture the torn wounds, but these sutures seemed intricate and looked a bit hideous on the abdomen.

"Your suturing technique is pretty good! Is your Holy Light power abundant?" Old Pike touched his chin and asked in a low voice while standing behind Roy.

Roy nodded and replied:
"I don't believe in the Statue of Liberty. When I became an apprentice priest, I could have absorbed some holy light power from those around me."

Old Pike's eyes widened, and he asked in confusion, "I can also absorb the holy light particles around me! But those insignificant holy light particles around us cannot meet our usual needs. Roy, how did you solve this problem?"

"In the dark land, we do need some auxiliary means. For example, I often replenish some holy water..." Roy explained.

Roy wanted to show Old Pike the Holy Light Tree in his body, but he didn't know how to describe it, so Roy made the magic vortex around him spin. Unfortunately, Old Pike couldn't see the magic vortex spinning around Roy, nor could he see the dense roots of the Holy Light Tree that penetrated into the magic vortex...

Roy put his hands together in a prayer position, then closed his eyes and said:

"I usually sense the holy light particles around me and then slowly try to communicate with them, just like this..."

As Roy extended his divine consciousness, all the holy light particles that the magic vortex could reach lit up and continued to rotate around Roy. Unfortunately, the holy light particles in the dark land were too scarce, and those surrounding Roy's body were also pitifully few.

But even so, it still shocked old Parker.

Old Parker looked at it intently...

The two of them would only chat in a low voice about the power of holy light when they were resting.

There were many wounded people waiting in line outside Old Pike's tent. Although their injuries were not as serious as the two wounded lying on the beds, they had also lost a lot of blood. And because they were contaminated with the dark energy, they could not be bandaged immediately. Old Pike needed to purify the dark energy before proceeding with the follow-up treatment...

Old Pike is very experienced in how to clear the dark energy from wounds.

In exchange, Old Pike also introduced to Roy several simple and effective methods to remove the dark energy. If a little holy light power was released at the same time, the purification effect would be even better.

It is said that if the dark energy that has invaded the body is not cleared away in time, the demon hunter's body will be destroyed, and the demon hunter may even slowly transform into a dark monster...

Some demon hunters went crazy, some went berserk, and some simply cut off the infected parts. Since old Pike came to the wanderer camp, this kind of thing has not happened again.

In fact, with Roy's current speed of absorbing the power of holy light, it doesn't matter whether he learns these simple treatment methods or not, but the half-elf warriors in the expeditionary camp can use them. Now many half-elf warriors in the expeditionary camp have learned to perform "twilight illumination", which means that they have mastered the holy light.

They don't have much Holy Light, and if they can learn Old Pike's method of treating wounds, then when they are injured, they can treat the wounds themselves.

Roy was busy in old Parker's clinic all day, and when he left, he only received a few words of thanks from the witcher.

But Roy didn't care about that...

Before leaving, Old Parker put his arm around Roy's shoulders, hoping that Roy could come to his clinic in the homeless camp more often when he was free.

Roy readily agreed.

……

Night fell in the dark land, and the sky gradually turned red.

Those dark creatures that were unusually active in the wilderness disappeared one after another. For them, it was time to rest.

For the demon hunters in the wanderer camp, their hunting time is about to begin while the dark creatures are lurking...

The camp gradually became lively, and some vendors appeared in the free market. Most of the vendors in the wanderer camp were demon hunters. Roy walked around the free market and found many magic materials he had never seen before. According to the stall owners, these were obtained from dark monsters.

The currency circulating in the wanderer camp is not magic crystals, and magic crystals are also relatively precious here.

The main currency in circulation in the wanderer camp is soul crystals, and these demon hunters also like to use soul crystals to measure the specific value of an item.

Although the Dark Scythe was a third-level dark monster, there were many demon hunting teams in the Wanderer Camp that could hunt the Dark Scythe. Roy saw this sharp bone blade in many stalls.

"how much is this?"

Roy squatted in front of a stall. He first looked at the crystal-like bones, then casually flipped through the other goods. Finally, he pointed at the bone blade of the Dark Scythe and asked the stall owner.

"Seventy soul crystals. This thing was obtained by our team when they hunted a dark sickle. You may also know that the dark sickle is very precious, and there are high risks when hunting, so this thing is a bit expensive!"

The stall owner was a human warrior. When he heard Roy speaking Elvish, he immediately spoke to Roy in fluent Elvish.

"Fifty soul crystals, I won't pay a penny more!" Roy said casually.

"Forget it!" The stall owner shook his head and refused Roy's attempt to bargain, but his words were still firm.

"..."

Roy stood up, slowly left the stall, and wandered around the free market.

Perhaps other stall owners noticed Roy asking about the price of the Dark Scythe. Whenever Roy walked to a stall, the stall owner would enthusiastically introduce the Dark Scythe he was selling...

And before Roy even opened his mouth, the stall owners took the initiative to lower the price a little.

"Take a look at the bone blade of my dark sickle. I just used it for hunting, so the dark aura on it is very strong and it is also very well preserved. Look at the bone cuts here, they are very clean..." Some stall owners took the initiative to introduce it to Roy.

Roy looked at the bone blade of the Dark Scythe in front of the stall owner and said, "I'm willing to buy it for fifty soul crystals!"

"There's no such cheap price in the entire free market. If you really want to buy it, it'll be sixty-five soul crystals... Never mind, I'll cut myself again, and you can give me sixty soul crystals and take it away!" The stall owner bit his lower lip and said to Roy with a painful look on his face.

Roy blinked and said, "Fifty soul crystals!"

"The price you offered is too low. I can't sell it to you at this price..." Although the stall owner said this, he took the initiative to wink at Roy, indicating that he could take the bone blade of the Dark Scythe.

Roy smiled slightly and did not proceed with the transaction. Instead, he added to the stall owner:

"I want to buy a lot of them, so the price I offer is only fifty soul crystals!"

"Oguheim, are you still selling it? If you don't want to sell it, I want to sell this half of my bone blade..." The stall owner next to him came over and tried to ask. "Sell it, why not!"

The stall owner immediately changed his tone and handed the Dark Scythe Bone Blade to Roy very swiftly.

Roy paid the money very readily, and then bought all the dark sickle bone blades on the stall next door.

At this time, some stall owners quickly surrounded Roy and said that they also had dark sickle bone blades in their stalls, and they were willing to sell them for fifty soul crystals...

As long as a stall owner brought a dark sickle bone blade to him, Roy would basically pay for it, unless the quality was extremely poor, then Roy would pick it out.

Soon, the news that Roy bought the Dark Scythe Bone Blade in the market spread throughout the wanderer camp.

In fact, the market in the camp was not very big, with only dozens of stalls. It didn't take Roy much time to walk around it.

However, Roy Linlin also bought more than fifty dark sickle bone blades, and all of them were priced at fifty soul crystals. Many stall owners who had not originally planned to lower the price of the bone blades became a little impatient at this time.

Such big buyers rarely appear in the homeless camp, but once they do, no one wants to just pass them by.

As more and more stall owners were willing to sell the Dark Scythe Bone Blade at the price of fifty soul crystals, their original ideas changed. They felt that selling a Dark Scythe Bone Blade for fifty soul crystals was not unacceptable.

So Roy searched the market in the wanderer camp and actually bought more than 120 dark sickle bone blades.

The stall owners in the vagrant camp were privately discussing Roy's background. He actually took out so many soul crystals in one go. Judging from the bulging pockets on his waist, it seemed that he had a lot left...

Roy actually saw some other dark magic materials in the market at the homeless camp, but he didn't know the prices of these magic materials, so he didn't buy any...

The only thing he accepted was the bone blade of the Dark Scythe. After he bought it, he had no intention of selling it again.

Roy planned to forge these dark sickle bone blades into dark battle blades and distribute them to the Dark Moon Elf warriors.

Captain Timothy followed Roy silently. When Roy left the market of the vagrant camp, Captain Timothy also left the vagrant camp from the other side...

……

Many demon hunters in the Wanderer Camp saw Roy leave alone, and he was also the most generous buyer to the Wanderer Camp in recent months.

After hearing this news, some demon hunters immediately became active...

Even some stall owners in the market joined in, and everyone in the wanderer camp discussed how to rob Roy on the way.

Some well-informed demon hunters also said that Roy was very close to Old Pike in the camp. If they robbed Roy, they would probably offend Old Pike in the camp...

But this voice was quickly drowned out by other voices.

These demon hunters felt that failure was no big deal, so they would just leave the expedition camp.

Once they succeed... they will become rich overnight. Maybe the wealth on Roy is enough for them to leave the dark land!

Everyone got together and quickly formulated an ambush plan. They sent a ranger who was proficient in tracking to follow Roy, while the main force took a detour to get in front of Roy and intercepted him...

……

Soon two demon hunters came out of the wanderer camp. After they caught up with Roy, Roy realized that these two elven rangers were the members of the demon hunting team that Roy had rescued last night.

After they caught up with Roy, they did not tell him directly that some demon hunters were planning to rob him.

Instead, he expressed the hope that Roy would return to the Rangers Camp right now, and it would be best if he could stay in the camp for a while, make friends with some demon hunters in Old Pike's clinic, and build his own social circle, and it would be best if he didn't leave in such a hurry...

Seeing the two elf rangers speaking so tactfully, Roy smiled while standing on the hillside and said:
"Have you heard any bad rumors?"

The two elven rangers looked at each other and hesitantly said, "We have heard some uncertain news that some demon hunters in the wanderer camp have set their sights on your money bag and want to take advantage of you on the way."

Roy nodded and said, "Thank you for being willing to speak frankly and for making a special trip for this matter!"

Roy looked around at the empty space before saying:

"But I'm not afraid of them. Besides, I'm not alone. I also have a big demon hunting team!"

The two elf rangers were worried that someone would catch up with them, so after telling Roy the news, they left in a hurry.

Neither of them even dared to go back the same way, but instead took a detour to leave.

In fact, when Roy just said those words, two hundred Dark Moon Elf warriors were scattered around Roy. When Roy said that he was not alone, he was referring to the two hundred Dark Moon Elf warriors around him.

Seeing that the two elf rangers had run far away, Captain Timothy appeared beside Roy and said to him:

"In fact, if you only need to show twenty Dark Moon Elf warriors, I guess those demon hunters in the wanderer camp will not risk attacking you..."

Roy shook his head and sighed:

"This wanderer camp is too close to the Dark Portal Expeditionary Camp, so I don't want this wanderer camp to be a place where filth and dirt are hidden. I hope it can be an orderly camp. Although this test cannot catch all the demon hunters with bad intentions at once, it can at least make them hide their tails and not show them easily..."

"..."

Captain Timothy was a little confused about what Roy said, but he did not refute it.

"Let's go, walk a little further. There is a valley ahead. We can wait for them there..."

Roy pointed forward and said seriously.

Seeing Roy's firm attitude, Captain Timothy did not try to stop him. Instead, he waved his hands around and walked ahead.
