Path of Light.

Chapter 613 614. The Wooden House in the Dark
The team is composed of six magicians and their students.

Originally, Roy thought that sword dancers and elven rangers would join the magician's team, but Roy was wrong. These magicians had no intention of bringing sword dancers wearing heavy armor, nor did they think of bringing elven rangers who were proficient in reconnaissance.

They passed through the Dark Portal one after another and arrived at the expeditionary camp under Roy's jurisdiction.

The students of these magicians are basically all great magicians. There are both male and female elven wizards among them. After arriving at the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp, they began to take out a lot of magic materials from their magic waist bags and started to assemble a large flatbed truck on the open space.

However, they did not install wheels on both sides of this large flatbed truck, which was 18 meters long and 6 meters wide.

Instead, he began to use some wooden boards with countless magic patterns carved on them, just like building blocks to build a wooden house...

The half-elf warriors gathered around the holy water pool saw that the great magicians were struggling to do this kind of physical work, so they came forward to help.

They first helped to move and lift things, and they were the ones who carried all the heavy wooden boards up.

When the great magicians behind saw that the half-elf warriors were doing a good job, they began to stand by and give instructions. The entire wooden house filled with a strong magical atmosphere was soon built.

When the wooden house was completed, the great magicians began to connect the magic patterns and arrays on the walls of the wooden house.

Soon, the magic patterns and formations on the entire wooden house lit up one after another, and the wooden house, which was originally made up of magic wooden boards, actually merged into one in the magical glow.

It was the first time that Roy saw this unique construction method.

What surprised Roy the most was that he saw with his own eyes a great magician install four floating devices on the base of this wooden house...

Since no living creature can live in the Dark Land, there are no horse-drawn carriages in the Dark Land, only some flatbed trucks for transporting supplies.

Roy thought that he would still need to travel on foot to enter the dark land this time, but he obviously underestimated these magicians.

Those dark creatures in the dark land are almost all lying in mid-air.

The magicians flying on magic brooms might alarm the dark creatures in the air, so they built a house that could move on land.

The wooden house in the Dark Portal Expeditionary Camp in front of you is a house floating on the ground. Although its suspended height is only one foot, it is completely floating.

There are four floating devices located under the foundation of the house, but in fact only two of them are functioning normally, and they are operating in a completely low-energy mode.

There is also a terrace of about four square meters at the main entrance of the wooden house.

After climbing the steps of the cabin, you can stand on the terrace and open the carved wooden door of the cabin.

When you enter the wooden house, there is a long corridor that leads to the end of the wooden house. At the end of the wooden house is a staircase leading to the second floor.

There are ten rooms on both sides of the corridor on the first floor of the wooden house. Almost every room has a small living room outside. Various flowers are placed on both sides of the corridor, making the wooden house very elegant. Some bookshelves are also filled with magic books.

The second floor of the wooden house is just an attic on the roof. In addition to a higher observation deck, there is a large living room and an open kitchen in the corner.

The bookshelves on one side of the living room wall are filled with magic books, and many exquisite display tables display priceless collections.

What surprised Roy the most was that he saw a magic puppet in the living room on the second floor that could clean the room and make fruit tea. The puppet looked like a broom handle, but it had two arms made of wooden sticks. It could move back and forth in the living room and sweep the floor very clean. The two wooden arms could also steadily hold up the teapot and teacups.

Resting in the house, I can't feel any darkness.

I didn't expect that the magicians could create such a comfortable cabin. Roy thought to himself:

If my first benefit is to build such a magic cabin, can the magicians agree to it...

……

The magician is a third-level grandmaster.

If it weren't for the Dark Portal, Roy would never have been able to reach them.

The oldest mage is Grand Mage Cedric. It is said that after this Grand Mage has dealt with the troubles at the Dark Portal, he will begin to try to advance to a fourth-level legendary powerhouse.

He is the most experienced magician in the team and has been at the peak of the third level for nearly fifty years.

Magister Elaud, one of the other five mages, is a student of Grand Magister Cedric.

Mage Elaud is responsible for the daily affairs of the team, and the main decisions are made by Grand Mage Cedric.

The other four magicians are:

Mage Wesley, this mage is proficient in space magic arrays.

The design of the Dark Portal's sealing magic circle was his work. Unfortunately, due to miscalculation of the Dark Portal's strength, the sealing magic circle and the Dark Portal's own magic circle interfered with each other so severely that the Dark Portal showed signs of collapse.

Well, the current trouble of the Dark Portal was caused by him. Even so, it cannot conceal the attainments of Mage Wesley in space magic.

Mage Dunlop is a mage who is proficient in water magic. Of course, more than 70% of the magicians in the Elf Continent are water magicians. It is worth mentioning that Mage Dunlop also practices dark magic, and he knows a lot about the dark creatures in the dark land.

Mage Jonas is proficient in space magic, but she is not very good at magic circles. Instead, she has a very in-depth study of space rifts. In other words, she has the ability to teleport short distances.

Mage Joyce, this mage who is proficient in wind magic is even more amazing. It is said that when he was young, he had been to the wild swamps of the Green Continent, came into contact with the lizardman tribe of the swamp kingdom there, and hunted the level 5 magical beast poisonous dragon there. His combat power is quite powerful.

The Silver Moon Elves believe that Water Magic is the authentic heritage of the Elves, while the Dark Moon Elves believe that Wind Magic is the foundation of elven magic. Magicians from both sides have been arguing about this topic for 1,400 years, so Magician Joyce is relatively isolated among the six magicians.

Among the six magicians, Ms. Jonas is a Silvermoon Elf noble.

Her real age could not be guessed from her delicate face. She liked to wear a gorgeous court dress made from a high-end magic robe, a pair of thin silk gloves with exquisite embroidery, and a delicate crystal staff in her hand. The two female students behind her often had to help hold up the hem of her skirt.

Roy felt that Princess Ophelia didn't have the same pomp and ceremony as her...

In fact, there are also Silver Moon Elf female magicians in the teams of Magister Elaud, Magister Dunlop and Magister Wesley, and it seems that those Silver Moon female elves are all very beautiful.

It seems that these magicians also have special needs at certain times.

Their students are all great magicians.

Although they are called students, they are actually almost like assistants.

This reminded Roy of those master's students who could not graduate from university in his previous life...

……

When a three-meter-high magic steel golem stopped in front of the house, Roy and the half-elf warriors were completely dumbfounded.

The jet-black steel body faintly exudes a layer of azure light, and one of the legs of this humanoid steel Golem is as thick as four elves hugging each other.

The entire steel golem was wrapped in thick iron sheets, and even had an exaggerated heavy helmet on its head.

There were two chains around its waist, and these two chains, as thick as arms, were connected to the beams of the foundation. The whole body of the Iron Golem was covered with magic runes. When Mage Elaud walked over and activated the magic rune array on its back, as the magic rune array began to operate slowly, the magic power filled the entire Iron Golem.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of half-elf warriors, the steel golem began to slowly move out of the camp.

Every step it took seemed to tremble along with it.

When the chain was pulled straight, the wooden house suspended above the ground was dragged forward by the steel golem.

Mage Elaud climbed up to the wooden house and waved to Roy who was standing among the crowd of half-elf warriors.

Roy jumped lightly and jumped onto the platform outside the cabin.

"We are about to leave, Roy, do you have anything else to bring with you?"

Magician Elaud asked Roy.

Roy subconsciously touched his magic waist bag, shook his head, and replied:

"I have long been ready……"

"Well, let's set off now!"

Magister Elaud held a magic wand and injected a stream of magic power into the body of Steel Golem.

Iron Golem took a two-meter step forward, dragging the eighteen-meter-long wooden house, and slowly left the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp under the gaze of a group of half-elf warriors.

He thought the speed was not much different from walking, but after the Iron Golem walked out of the camp, Roy realized that he had underestimated the Iron Golem.

The frequency of Steel Gollum's steps continued to increase. Although one step was only two meters, it could actually run at a small speed. The floating wooden house behind it could be dragged by it and move forward regardless of the terrain.

The Steel Gollum didn't care whether there was a road ahead or not, nor did it care whether it was uphill or downhill. It just couldn't climb the steep places.

Roy sat inside the wooden house and didn't feel any bumps at all.

When encountering larger rocks, the wooden house will even be driven by the floating device to raise the floating height...

Six magicians occupied six rooms in the wooden house, and twelve great magicians also lived in the remaining four rooms.

Mage Elaud took Roy to the end of the corridor. There should have been a studio here. There was only a desk in the room. There was a bookcase against the wall, which was almost full of magic scrolls. The other side was filled with magic boxes.

There is a single bed in the corner of the room. Although it seems a bit out of tune with the style of the whole room, it is a good place for Roy to rest.

"Captain Roy, due to the limited number of guest rooms in the cabin, we can only vacate this room for you to rest. If you feel bored in the room, you can go to the rest area on the second floor and sit down and chat with everyone. We will provide three meals a day on time. If you have any special needs, you can also tell me!"

Magister Elaud seemed very polite when he spoke.

Roy touched the mattress of the wooden bed and felt it was pretty good. He quickly said to Mage Elaud:
"Master Mage, the environment here is already very good. I never thought that part of the journey to the Dark Land would be completed sitting in a wooden house..."

"That's good, Captain Roy. This wooden house can almost block most of the dark energy, so basically only when magicians go out will they be contaminated by the dark energy. At that time, you may need to use purification to remove the dark energy from everyone. When the dark energy needs to be dispelled, I will notify you in advance, but during this period, please try to preserve your divine power."

Mage Elaud warned Roy.

He was probably worried that Roy would consume the power of holy light carelessly, and when the time came, he would not be able to purify the dark energy in the magician.

"Please rest assured, I will pay special attention to this!"

Roy said quickly.

The wooden house entered the dark place and kept moving forward.

These magicians seemed to have set up a magic circle on the wooden house to block the perception of the dark creatures. After entering the dark land for about three days, they had no conflict with the dark creatures in the dark land.

Roy usually locks himself in his room.

Except for meal times, he rarely appears in the living room on the second floor.

When Roy met those great magicians at dinner, he would occasionally chat with them.

These great magicians were very curious about how Roy learned the divine arts and escaped from the Statue of Liberty.

They heard that Roy entered the Temple of the Statue of Liberty to become an apprentice priest after the disappearance of the Statue of Liberty, and that he had never felt the holy light of the Statue of Liberty since he began to learn the divine arts, and naturally had no faith in the Statue of Liberty. They were amazed and said that it was incredible that he could learn the divine arts in this way.

A great magician named Sanko said to Roy,

In the Green Empire of Roland Continent, the imperial people there are different from the elves. They are not born with an affinity for magic. If they want to become magicians, they must be born with a magical physique and complete the magic awakening at a very young age in order to become magicians.

However, once the human magicians of the Green Empire start learning magic, they always grow very fast...

Someone like Roy, who can become an apprentice priest without the infusion of the Holy Light of the Goddess of Liberty, may be born with an affinity for holy light.

Roy held the cookie with a subtle smile on his face.

He did not say to the great magician Sanko: "Your guesses are basically correct..."

Roy rarely saw the magicians. They had someone to deliver food to their rooms and rarely came to the rest area in the living room on the second floor. Even the female magicians would only meet in the living room on the second floor occasionally.

The only magician that can be seen frequently is Lord Magician Elaud.

When this great magician came into contact with Roy, he did not act superior to him. He was even more friendly than some great magicians.

Mage Elaud would occasionally sit down and chat with Roy.

"Roy, what level of high priest are you?"

"Uh, level sixteen."

Roy said honestly.

After he finished speaking, he gathered a ball of sacred light between his hands. This ball of light was filled with holy aura and was particularly dazzling in the room.

"I haven't seen such pure holy light power in a long time." Master Magister Elaud looked at Roy in surprise and asked, "If you come out of the dark land this time, do you have any wishes that we need to help you fulfill?"

"Not yet. I am more looking forward to the second-level magic pattern armor. The thick leather armor and magic pattern armor I am wearing now are already very old. Some of the magic pattern arrays are damaged, and I have never had time to repair them..."

Roy touched the magic pattern armor on his body and said reluctantly.
