Path of Light.

Chapter 670 671. Portal
Roy hadn't ridden in Castletown's long carriage for a long time.

Standing at the intersection of Brown Street, the rainy season had just passed, and the water in the Dane River was abundant, and the sound of the river flowing could be heard from afar.

Not long after, a long carriage stopped at the street corner.

A group of half-elves hurriedly squeezed into the carriage. They were all going to work in the upper city. If they worked at the port dock or the lower city, they would not need to take a long carriage and could just walk.

In the morning, the coastline of Castletown is very beautiful. The tide has just receded, revealing a large stretch of silver sand beach.

There was a mist over the sea in the distance.

The longbox carriage slowly drove towards the middle of the mountain, stopping and starting along the way. A group of young half-elves rushed into the carriage, talking non-stop about the city of Padstow. They planned to earn enough money for a boat ticket and take a medium-sized sailing ship to Partington Island.

Roy sat at the back of the carriage, leaning back on the hard chair, looking at the dazzling array of fruits in front of the fruit stall.

After a while, the spire of the ivory tower of the Magic Guild finally came into sight, but it was still a long way to go from the fruit market in the downtown area to the ivory tower of the Magic Guild.

In front of the ivory tower where the Magic Guild is located, there is a very beautiful square. The curved corridors and Roman columns more than 30 meters high are located at the outermost edge of the square. In the center of the square there is a fountain full of magic elements.

Roy walked through the curved corridor and went straight into the ivory tower.

The Ivory Tower of the Magic Guild is also called the Mage Tower by many elves. The hall on the first floor is a magic trading market, which not only sells magic scrolls and magic potions, but also enchanted weapons and wands, as well as more expensive magic pattern constructs. Most of the Warcraft materials seen in the market are also available here, but the prices are a bit expensive.

The magic pattern construction of Roy's first set of thick leather armor was completed here, and the inscriptionist was Miss Scarlett.

However, Roy is no longer suitable for wearing those primary magic rune structures, so Mage Elaud promised to tailor a set of secondary magic rune structures for him.

I walked into the lobby on the first floor of the ivory tower and took a casual stroll around. I saw a wide variety of goods in the shops. Whenever I saw something I was interested in, I would go up to it and ask the price. He had a bulging purse hanging around his waist, and he looked like a customer with great purchasing power.

Every time he walked into a store, he would receive a warm welcome from the store owner. Although he looked at a lot of goods, he only bought a few of them.

Soon, Roy saw the great magician Grams, who was wearing a black magic robe and standing quietly in the hall on the first floor.

"Thought you'd get here a little later."

Great Magician Grames spoke to Roy in high spirits, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood.

"We had a long carriage that morning, and it didn't take much time to get here."

Roy came in front of the great magician Grahames, and as he looked over, he saw a female magician in a striped suit standing in the distance and waving at the great magician Grahames. She must be an acquaintance.

However, the female magician did not come closer. She turned around and walked in another direction holding a bundle of magic scrolls.

Great Magician Grams showed a trace of nostalgia on his face.

"Let's go. Follow me and I'll take you to see the teleportation hall of the Magic Guild. It's not easy to get this teleportation pass. Your teleportation pass was applied for by Teacher Cedric himself."

As he spoke, Great Magician Grams hung a nameplate on Roy's chest, put his arm around Roy's shoulders, and walked straight to the second floor of the ivory tower.

The first floor of the Magic Guild is the Magic Market, which is open to the public.

However, starting from the second floor and going up is the union area that only magicians can enter. There are guards at the stairs. Going up the stairs, there is a magic door. Through the magic door, Roy finally entered the ivory tower. The corridors here are circular, and each section of the corridor can be an independent area.

Those young magicians wearing black and white striped magic robes always walk quickly in the corridor...

When they saw the great magician Grams, they would stop and greet him respectfully before quickly leaving.

Although Great Magician Grams was a little impatient, he still responded one by one.

When Grahams took Roy to the third floor of the Magic Guild, the young magicians in black and white stripes suddenly became much fewer. The magicians here usually wore beige and pure white magic robes, and the female elf wizards on the third floor were all very beautiful...

Seeing that Roy was a little curious, the great magician Grams whispered to him:
"The good thing about water magic is that it's good for your skin!"

The two continued to walk upstairs, and under the guidance of the great magician Grahams, Roy arrived at the fourth floor of the ivory tower.

The number of magicians on this floor suddenly decreased. The magicians who passed by in the corridor would still stop and salute the great magician Grams...

Just when Roy wanted to see if there was a fifth floor in this ivory tower, the great magician Grams took Roy through the corridor and walked straight into a hall with a starry sky dome. There were six circular platforms built in this hall, and one had to climb the steps to stand on the platform.

There were only three platforms in the hall with magic portals, and these three portals were not very big, at most only two meters high and one meter wide. However, each portal was open, and inside the portal was a magic vortex. Standing at the portal was a magician holding a staff, who should be the administrator of the portal.

"This is the teleportation hall of the Magic Guild. There are only three portals in the teleportation hall of the Castletown Magic Guild, which can be used to teleport to Buenos Aires, Moyobamba, and Minascu. Moyobamba is the central city in the southern part of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom, and Minascu is close to the northern border of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom. As long as we cross a mountain range, we can enter the Evernight Forest of the Dark Moon Elf Kingdom. This time we are going to teleport to Moyobamba."

The great magician Grams walked in front and turned to Roy and said.

Entering the teleportation hall, there are almost no other elves here except the three-masted portal manager.

Grams climbed up a platform and came to a portal. He said to the portal administrator:

"Take us both to Moyobamba."

After saying that, he took out a small bag of magic crystals and handed it to the portal administrator.

The portal administrator carefully counted the magic crystals in his pocket, and then said respectfully:
"Okay, Master Magician, please wait for a moment with your companions."

The portal administrator sent a stream of magic power to the portal, and the magic vortex immediately began to spin rapidly. The portal administrator looked at the portal filled with magical light, then took a step back and said to Great Magician Grams:
"Mr. Great Magician, the space rift leading to Moyobamba has been connected. Please pass through as soon as possible..."

Great Magician Grams didn't waste any time and walked straight towards the portal.

Roy hurriedly followed. He felt that when he passed through this portal, he obviously did not feel the strong discomfort of passing through the plane portal. After only a few steps in the space crack, he came to another teleportation hall.

The decoration style here is obviously that of a tropical rainforest. The hall is filled with tropical rainforest plants, and two portals are hidden in a garden that looks like a dense forest.

Roy followed behind Grems and asked him quietly, "Aren't these portals working? Why do we need to adjust them before we can pass through?"

Great Magician Grams stopped.

“Only when these portals are always in operation can we ensure that the space rifts connected by the portals will always exist.

However, a group of intruders had appeared in the portal hall before. After breaking into the portal hall, they used the operating portals to forcibly enter the target cities, and cast large-scale group magic on those target cities, destroying many elven cities.

From then on, even if the portal in the teleportation hall remained in normal operation, the passage only connected a very small demiplane.

Only after the identity of the teleporter is confirmed, the portal administrator will adjust the positioning information of the teleportation array to allow the teleporter to arrive at the target city smoothly..."

Roy didn't expect that the teleportation hall had such rules. Grahams took Roy and did not leave the teleportation hall. Instead, he continued to another teleportation gate in the hall, took out a bag of magic crystals from his arms, handed it to the teleportation gate administrator, and said to him:
"Take us both to the city of Vaupaye."

The portal administrator paused for a few seconds on the magic badge on Grems' chest before taking the purse.

"Okay, Great Magician, please wait a moment."

The portal administrator adjusted the portal and immediately cleared the passage.

The great magician Grames walked in first, and Roy followed behind reluctantly. Through the ripples of magic vortex, Roy walked out of a portal, and the teleportation hall in front of him looked very small.

To be precise, this should be a tree house, the kind that is dug out from a tree trunk, and the entire room is only a dozen or so square meters.

A portal administrator was sitting on a chair at the door. Seeing someone coming out of the portal, he gave directions to the great magician Grams who was walking in front of him:

"There are stairs on the right hand side of the door. This is the Magic Guild of Wopeye City. Please confirm whether this is the destination of this journey..."

While the portal administrator was chattering, the great magician Grams had already built the tree house.

"You can't teleport directly to Waupaye from Castletown. If you want to come to Waupaye, you can only transfer through Moyobamba..."

Great Magician Grames explained to Roy.

Sure enough, this is a very small tree. The height of the whole tree is less than 100 meters. The Magic Guild set up the portal at the top of the Tree of Life.

Great Magician Grams walked into the Magic Guild, which seemed very deserted. The two took a vertical elevator back to the ground...

Roy discovered that the Magic Guild was actually built on the Tree of Life, which would never happen in Castleton City.

"The Magic Guild here is very small, with no more than twenty permanent magicians, and there have been no new magic apprentices here for twenty-seven years, so the Magic Guild is a bit deserted."

"Because the priests did not build the Moon Temple here, the magicians took the opportunity to establish the Magic Guild at the Tree of Life." Great Magician Grams continued to introduce to Roy.

"Does every elven city have a magic guild and a portal?" Roy asked curiously.

"more or less."

Grahams walked along the forest path, and Roy, who had just arrived, took the opportunity to observe the small town.

The entire city is built in a dense jungle, in which there is only a young tree of life.

There were also some other trees several dozen meters high around, and the elves had built some tree houses on the trees. The forest paths here were interconnected. In the open spaces in the city's forests, Roy could see tall wood elves in addition to the Silver Moon elves.

The half-blood elves here are all tall, and have the well-proportioned bodies of the Silver Moon elves...

"I'll take you to visit a leatherworker. Your set of ice dragon leather armor needs to be made by a leatherworker himself. Although Wopeye is a small city, there are two leatherworkers in this city. The leatherworker I'll take you to visit is good at making dragon leather and lizard leather..."

Great Magician Grames introduced Roy in a low voice.

When passing through a clearing in the forest, Roy discovered that this was actually a market. In the market, he could see many hybrid elves that were the combination of Silver Moon Elves and Wood Elves. They liked to wear short skirts, revealing a pair of long, straight, white legs.

The streets of this city seemed to stretch to the horizon, the jungle was dense, and the air was filled with humidity.

The great magician Graims was very familiar with this small town. He took Roy for a walk and finally arrived at the door of a leatherworking workshop on the edge of the city. It was a big redwood tree with a tall trunk that reached straight into the sky. There was a staircase outside the tree, and a copper leatherworking plaque was hung on the lintel of the staircase.

"This place is still the same as before. It hasn't changed much over the years." The great magician Grams complained in a low voice.

The great magician Grams didn't even knock on the door, but pushed it open and walked into the leatherworking workshop.

Roy stood at the door and peeked inside cautiously. It was called a leather workshop, but there was only an old elf in the room. He had a tape measure hanging around his neck, and needles and thread, scissors, tweezers and other small items stuck on the belt around his waist.

He looked up and saw Grems suddenly breaking in from outside. He frowned, then became very surprised:

"Grams, how come you have time to come to Wopeye?" the old elf responded to Roy.

"I came here this time at the request of Mage Elaud. I came here specifically to find you and order a set of thick leather armor for Roy. Oh, by the way! He is Roy, the leader of the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion."

Great Magician Grames introduced.

"Oh, do you want to customize the base material of the magic pattern construction?" The old elf raised his eyelids and looked at Roy and asked. "Did you bring the materials? What level of magic pattern construction do you need to customize?"

"Level 2!" Roy replied.

"As for the monster leather... there are very few options. I forgot to ask you, are you going to use your own monster leather, or do you need the workshop to provide you with some?"

“Bring your own!”

Roy answered simply again.
