Path of Light.

Chapter 651 652. Roy's Letter
Half a month later, the fourth lich was sealed in an ice coffin.

Captain Jeroin never expected that these six great magicians could capture three liches in the Haitian desert in one go...

The three liches were transported by the priests back to the Isnes expeditionary camp designated by the magician.

Regarding this lich, Captain Jeroin planned to personally lead the team to escort it to the Isnes expeditionary camp. It was said that it was an expeditionary camp opened up by the priests from the elven world, so he wanted to follow the team to take a look.

After the liches arrive at the Isnes Expeditionary Camp, the accompanying magicians will go to the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp, and the mages in the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp will deal with these liches.

……

Having captured four liches in a row, Grand Magister Cedric was naturally overwhelmed with joy.

With these four liches, we can at least stabilize the slowly collapsing Dark Portal.

After some discussion, the six magicians decided to continue searching for liches in Haiti. If they could capture six liches in Haiti, their journey to the dark land would come to an end.

The priests of the Knights Templar will also take the opportunity to leave some of their men behind. They will search deep in Haiti for clues about Bishop Ocasi...

Roy had heard the priests talk about some past events of 'Bishop O'Casey' before, but he didn't know that Bishop O'Casey was the corpse lying in the lair of the Frost Dragon.

In fact, the corpse had a name.

Roy saw that Imperial name in his parchment notebook almost every day.

Opening the parchment notebook, the imperial name was signed at the bottom.

But he didn't know how to pronounce the name, and he didn't know that the "Okesi" the priests were talking about was the line of small characters.

When the priests were talking about Bishop O'Casey, Roy didn't think about it at all.

It was not until one day when Captain Jeroin wrote the name on a piece of parchment that Roy was stunned by the words.

At this time, Roy suddenly realized that the dead body in the Frost Dragon's lair seemed to be Bishop Ocasi.

In the next few days, he became somewhat depressed and conflicted, wondering whether he should tell the news to Captain Jeroin. After all, they had been looking for the whereabouts of Bishop Ocasi.

But Roy didn't want to cause trouble...

After all, such a large piece of jade disappeared from my hands.

Roy's sleep quality has become very poor recently. Every time he falls asleep, he can hear a woman's voice whispering in his ear.

The woman always said a lot, like she was complaining, murmuring or praying, but when Roy woke up, he couldn't remember anything.

When Roy woke up in the morning, he would have dark circles under his eyes.

Even Leah secretly asked him if he had insomnia at night...

……

The priests of the Knights Templar followed the magic cabin and searched deep in Haiti for two months, but neither side gained anything.

Grand Mage Cedric could only lead the team back to the edge of Haiti. Then he stood on the observation deck of the magic wooden house and announced to everyone that the exploration operation in Haiti was officially over.

The priests can return to the camp of the Knights Templar, and the Magic Cabin will leave Haiti and head along the expedition road into the depths of the dark land to find other liches.

Magister Elaud and Roy arrived at the Templar camp. Captain Jeroin had successfully completed the transportation mission and led a group of priests back to the Knights Templar camp.

This time, Magister Elaud brought Roy here not only to say goodbye to Captain Jeroin, but also to deliver a batch of supplies to the Knights Templar.

These supplies were brought by six great magicians who returned to the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp. They were human priests, and the sap of the tree of life and elf biscuits were not very attractive to them. However, they were in short supply of dried fish and fruits, as well as some daily necessities such as cloth, knives, pots and pans.

In addition, Mage Elaud also obtained a thousand sets of excellent quality metal armor from Roy's mine guards. These armors were all made by the Elf Workshop. Not only are they exquisite in appearance, but they are also of top quality.

These supplies were transported from the Dark Gate Expedition by six great magicians, and then delivered to the Knights Templar personally by Magister Elaud.

Seeing these piles of supplies, Captain Jeroin couldn't help but sigh in his heart: No matter when, the elves always help humans so selflessly...

"Mage Elaud, I really don't know how to thank you magicians. These supplies really solve the biggest problem we are facing right now!"

"No need to thank us, you deserve it."

Magister Elaud shook hands with Captain Jelloin.

The priests watching from all sides also had joy on their faces.

Everyone knows what is in this pile of supplies. For some time to come, they should not have to eat that disgusting dried meat filled with dark energy.

When he saw Roy, Captain Jeroin hugged Roy.

"Roy, long time no see."

"Captain Jeroin, did this escort mission go smoothly?"

“Fortunately, although there were some minor problems, they were solved anytime and anywhere…” Captain Jeroin said casually.

They hadn't seen each other for almost two months.

In fact, Captain Jeroin really wanted Roy to stay.

As long as he stays here, the priests of the Knights Templar will possess some power of holy light. The feeling of possessing the power of holy light is really great.

But he also knew that the magicians also needed Roy's company. Besides, Roy was an officer of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom and controlled an elven army. It was impossible for him to stay in the dark land.

"Well, if you need anything in the future, you can send someone to wait for me at the free market at the Isnes Expeditionary Force camp. I'll go to the market there every once in a while. If it's ordinary supplies, I can help you with some of them."

Roy leaned close to Captain Jeroin's ear and whispered something to him.

Captain Jeroin's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Roy very seriously.

Roy immediately nodded affirmatively to Captain Jeroin.

The two couldn't hug for too long, and after they separated they could only communicate with their eye contact.

Then Captain Jelloin invited Magister Elaud into the tent and asked him about the next plan. Magister Elaud did not hide anything and said frankly that he would go deep into the dark land along the expedition road and go to other places to inquire about the news of the lich.

"Are you a professional team that hunts liches?" Captain Jeroin asked Mage Elaud curiously.

Mage Elaud shook his head and replied with a smile: "We just happen to need a few, but as of now, we haven't gathered enough."

Everyone sat in the tent and chatted for a while before Roy looked at Captain Jeroin and said to him in a very tactful tone:

"…Is it possible that your bishop is already dead?"

Captain Jeroin smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, we knew about the death news, otherwise the bishop would never leave us here. We just want to find him. We stayed here after being abandoned by the Goddess Temple in the hope that we can find the remains of Bishop Ocasi one day."

At this moment, a sentence almost squeezed into Roy's throat, but in the end he swallowed it back into his stomach.

Captain Jeroin waved to a priest, and when the priest came over, Captain Jeroin whispered a few words to him. After the priest hurriedly left, Captain Jeroin thanked Roy:
"Roy, thank you for sharing with us. Your opinions have given us a new path!"

Roy knew that Captain Jeroin was talking about the fact that darkness and light can transform into each other.

"I have to thank you! If you hadn't explained it to me, I might not have been able to understand the Holy Seal magic..."

Roy also said very politely.

The priest who had hurriedly left the tent now hurried back into the tent holding the box.

The box looked heavy, and there were some exquisite metal patterns on the surface. Captain Jeroin held the box in both hands and placed it in front of Roy. He smiled and said to Roy, "You gave us so many gifts. As a friend, I should return the favor."

After saying that, he opened the wooden box and inside was a flail, which could actually be called a "chain hammer".

The flail looked pitch black, and there was even some dried blood on the spiked hammer head.

"This is the weapon I used to like to use. It's a holy flail with a 'holy light bullet' divine pattern engraved on it. You know I can't get the power of holy light in the dark land. This flail is far less useful than an ordinary sword, so I have kept it in this box."

After Captain Jeroin finished speaking, he picked up the box and handed it to Roy, saying:

"Now, I give it to you, hoping it will be helpful for your next journey."

Roy quickly took the unusually heavy box in his hands, and sure enough, the flail exuded a rotten smell of blood and rust.

"Thank you, Captain Jeroin. I'll take it!"

Roy then put the flail into his magic waist bag.

Not long afterward, Roy followed Magister Elaud and left the Knights Templar.

……

Before leaving, Roy left a letter.

After Roy disappeared, Captain Jeroin returned to the tent and opened the letter Roy had left behind:

'Captain Jeroin, I know you have been looking for Bishop O'Casey.

But at the beginning, I didn't know that the line of text was the name of Bishop O'Casey. Until one day you wrote that line of text on the page of the book, I guessed that I had met the bishop you were looking for.

It was a very hidden frost dragon's lair.

When I saw Bishop O'Casey, he had turned into a pile of bones, lying in the corner of the cave.

Because this matter involves some other secrets, I was troubled by it for a long time.

Before leaving, I decided to tell you this news!
If you want to find the remains of Bishop Ocasi, then go to the abyss in the center of Haiti, where his remains are hidden... If you ever figure it out and want to leave the dark land, then come to the Isnes Expeditionary Force camp to find me. I have a way to get you out of the dark land.

If you want to leave the dark land, come to me.'

Finally, Roy also left behind a hand-drawn map, which was drawn very carefully and clearly marked the location of the abyss.

After reading the letter, Captain Jeroin slowly closed his eyes.

The last glimmer of hope left in my heart turned into flying bubbles along with the letter left by Roy.

After a long time, Captain Jeroin finally opened his eyes and slowly walked out of the tent. At this moment, his eyes were completely empty. He stood at the door of the tent for a while before instructing a priest beside him:

"Tomorrow morning, go to the other two camps and invite the two captains, Ryan and Rodman. I have something to share with them."

"Yes, Master Jeroin."

……

It took the magic wooden house thirty-five days to travel from the edge of the sea back to the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp in the black sand sea.

This time when he returned to the Dark Portal Expeditionary Camp, Grand Magister Cedric wanted to observe the current situation of the Dark Portal. In addition, Grand Magister Cedric also received news that during the time he was away from the expeditionary camp, four more mages gathered at the Dark Portal Expeditionary Camp.

Grand Magister Cedric returned to the Dark Portal Expeditionary Camp, hoping to communicate with them to see if they had any better ways to solve the problem of the Dark Portal's collapse.

Roy also wanted to come back to check on the mine guards. After all, he had been away from the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp for more than half a year.

The magic wooden house slowly drove into the Dark Portal Expeditionary Force camp. The first thing that caught the eye was the four ice coffins standing in the camp. These four ice coffins were tightly tied with some wool felt, and the cold air could still be seen from inside...

There were no other changes in the expeditionary camp.

Just as the magic wooden house drove into the camp, a team of half-elf guards came running over and blocked Steel Golem.

The great magician standing on the observation deck shouted to the Elf Guards:

"Get out of the way! We are from the Silver Moon Elf Magic Guild. Please don't interfere with our work!"

The half-elf guard standing in front of Steel Golem straightened his back, stepped on Steel Golem's toes, held the hilt of the elven sword with one hand, and shouted to the great magician:
"We are also on routine duty to check all personnel and vehicles entering the Dark Gate Expeditionary Force camp. Please get out of the car and cooperate!"

The great magician was unwilling to pay attention to the elven guards and wanted to drive the Iron Golem directly into the expeditionary camp. At this time, he saw groups of holy lights lit up in the darkness. Under each group of holy lights, there was an elven archer with a bow and arrow aimed at the great magician.

"Don't move forward. If you take another step forward, we will shoot you into hedgehogs." The Elf Guard soldier shouted, "I'm telling you again, get your leader out of the car and cooperate with our inspection!"
