Path of Light.

Chapter 705 Chapter 706. On the eve of the war
Due to the movement of a large number of glaciers, fjords were plowed out on the land north of the western sea. These fjords allow the land and the sea to blend together, forming a unique landscape.

A group of fish-men were pushed onto the beach by the waves. They swung their big feet and swayed like drunkards while running...

The merfolk reported their findings in the sea to the Siren Intelligence Officer in a murmurous voice, and then dragged their tired bodies to rest in a thatched hut built with seaweed and rotten branches by the reef.

The Siren Intelligence Officer summarized the intelligence collected from all parties, and then reported some useful information to Commander Alcesar. This sea beast priest lost his magic contract partner a month ago... a manta ray from the deep sea.

Due to the backlash of the magic contract, Commander Alcesar has been in a weak state, which is the main reason why he hid the Siren Legion in the fjord on the northern coastline.

The Dark Faceless Army has now occupied most of his territory and is almost forcing him onto the land. However, he is completely unable to fight back against the Dark Faceless Army during this period of time and can only stay in the fjord.

"Commander, according to the reconnaissance of the merfolk, it is known that there are four Siren legions approaching our territory, but they have not yet started a war with the Dark Faceless Legion." The Siren intelligence officer reported to Commander Arcesa.

Arcesa opened his eyes, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes, his face was covered with seaweed and even parasitic coral polyps, his body looked extremely old, and his voice was a little unclear.

"Bring these legion commanders here, I will talk to them..."

"Yes, Lord Commander Alcesar."

The Siren Intelligence Officer received the next instruction and immediately saluted Commander Arcesa, preparing to leave the tent filled with the smell of herbs and decay.

"Wait, is there any news from the elves?"

The Siren Intelligence Officer shook his head and responded cautiously: "Not yet."

Since Commander Arcesa was injured, his temperament has become erratic and he has become more suspicious. The Siren Intelligence Officer knows very well how the previous intelligence officer died, so after becoming the intelligence officer, he has been working very hard, fearing that he will not do a good enough job and will be directly eliminated by Commander Arcesa...

Commander Arcesa closed his eyes and waved his hand casually.

"You go down first."

The Siren Intelligence Officer saluted Commander Arcesa again, then turned and walked out of the spacious tent.

At this time, a young mermaid slipped in from outside the tent. His ugly face looked domineering. He stood in front of Commander Alcesar without showing any restraint.

"Father, what do those elves mean? Didn't they say they wanted to cooperate with us? Why is it that even though they said they wanted to cooperate, we never see them..." the young mermaid complained.

Commander Alcesar opened his eyes, looked at the young mermaid and said:
"When we were communicating, I could only understand half of what he said due to the language barrier. I think he was telling me that the Sirens and the Elves should unite to fight against the Dark Faceless Men. Speaking of which, if they hadn't helped me repel the Dark Faceless Men that washed up on the beach during that naval battle, the Sirens Legion of the Alcesar family might have existed in name only."

After saying this, he started coughing violently.

The young mermaid quickly came to the side of Commander Alcesar and pressed his chest, saying:
"Father, you rest here and recover. I will find a way to take back the Western Sea from the Dark Faceless Legion."

"Attias, wait a minute!"

Commander Alcesar called Atias back...

Atias turned to look at his father with wide eyes and asked with a puzzled look:

"What's wrong, Father?"

Commander Alcesar waved his hand, pointed outside the tent, and said, "Go and get ready first. The elves are coming. Bring them to me..."

……

Atias was ordered to walk out of the tent. He looked up and immediately saw the magic airship floating in the air.

This magic airship was silently hovering above the siren camp. At this time, many sirens had already discovered the existence of the magic airship, and the intelligence officer was also hurried over here.

Atias twisted his dark snake tail with white diamond patterns, climbed to the top of the sea reef, and waved at the magic airship.

Not long after, more than a dozen griffins flew out from the magic airship. Roy sat on Kaka's griffin and hovered over the Siren Camp before slowly landing in the camp. More than a dozen griffin cavalrymen also flew down immediately.

At the same time, Miss Tiffany and Jie Zena also walked out of the sea side by side, and they were almost carried to the beach by a wave.

After Roy jumped off the griffin's back,

After standing there for a while, he let the griffin cavalry return to the magic airship to rest...

He stood there, waiting for Miss Tiffany and the mermaid Jie Zena to come over, and then the three of them slowly walked towards Attias.

Roy walked in front, and Miss Tiffany and the sea siren Jiezena followed behind him on the left and right. While walking, Jiezena was still complaining to Roy:
"Roy, you wanted to see Commander Arcesa, why did you drag me along?"

Unfortunately, Roy couldn't understand the Janna language at all. He set his eyes on Miss Tiffany, hoping that she could translate what the mermaid Jie Zena said to him.

Miss Tiffany smiled and whispered to Roy, "Jizena said she was very grateful that you brought her here."

Roy looked at Jie Zena's face and felt that her expression did not show any gratitude at all...

He did not continue chatting, but looked at the entire siren camp. When looking down from the magic airship, Roy found that the camp was in ruins. The real home of the sirens was the endless sea in front of them. However, the sirens had amphibious abilities and could also sleep on the beach.

The only thing you need to pay attention to is to keep sufficient moisture on the surface of the body. Once dehydrated for a long time, the siren's skin, which has no sweat glands to secrete oil, is likely to dry out and fall off over a large area.

Observing from high in the air, the camp here is in a mess, many Siren warriors are injured, and the camp is dead silent...

A young male siren stood in front of Roy, looking down at him.

After the young siren finished speaking, he looked at Roy quietly...

Miss Tiffany quickly translated, "He said his name is Atias, and he is the son of Commander Arcesa. He wants you to come sit in Commander Arcesa's tent."

Roy nodded with a smile and followed Atiyas, constantly observing the situation in the camp.

The Siren here is more tragic than expected, and the morale of these Siren warriors is very low...

……

Commander Alcesar was lying on a rock in the tent, his face looking much older.

Roy led a mermaid and a Naga to the tent, which was more or less unexpected to the Alcesar commander. But with Miss Tiffany's help, at least there would be no problem in communication...

If two months ago, when Commander Alcesar saw the Sirens and the Nagas mixing together, he might have captured them both and thrown them into the sea to feed the sharks. You know, the Nagas and the Sirens are old enemies...

But things are different now.

Not to mention that Roy had saved him before, even if it was their first meeting, Commander Alcesar couldn't feel hostile towards Roy...

After Roy sat down, the first thing he did was to report to Commander Arcesa that he had brought a large amount of military supplies this time. All of these military supplies were high-quality magical weapons and equipment carefully made by the Silver Moon Elves.

The weapons and equipment made by the elves pursue perfection. These magical weapons and equipment not only have magical effects, but also have some artistic patterns on them.

"Do you really want to help us?" Commander Alcesar looked at Roy in confusion.

Roy spread his hands and said, "I give you these military supplies because I hope you can have an advantage in the next battle with the Dark Faceless Army. If we have enough trust and establish a cooperative relationship later... we will talk about it. If you still can't trust us, then we can fight on our own."

"Anyway, our goal is the same, which is to eradicate the Dark Faceless Legion. If you can't do it, then we will do it."

Jie Zena was sitting next to Miss Tiffany. When she heard Miss Tiffany translate Roy's words completely, she was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.

She was all too familiar with Commander Arcesa's temper.

This sea beast priest drove away Commander Latimore and massacred the siren army under Commander Latimore. Almost all of Commander Latimore's 150,000 merfolk and 60,000 sirens died at the hands of Commander Alcesar.

"Humph!"

Commander Alcesar snorted coldly, causing beads of sweat to appear on the forehead of the mermaid Jiezena. It seemed that the sea beast priest was very dissatisfied.

"Our Siren Legion has arrived in the western waters one after another. It won't be long before our Siren Legion can drive the Dark Faceless Legion back to the dark land..." Commander Alcesar's voice became sharp and high-pitched.

“Although… we can completely resolve this war with the Faceless Legion on our own, I still want to thank you for your help!”

Commander Arcesa expressed his gratitude to Roy.

It can be seen that Commander Alcesar is still confident of victory in the war between the Sirens and the Faceless Men.

After Roy chatted with Commander Arcesa for a while, he explained his purpose. This time he brought a batch of military supplies to Commander Arcesa.

As Roy walked outside the tent and made a few gestures toward the magic airship floating in the air, the magic airship immediately began to slowly lower its altitude...

When the magic airship was only a dozen meters away from the ground, it stopped steadily again...

Boxes of military supplies were lowered down by the crane on the ship. Roy pried open a wooden box with a dagger and found that it was filled with weapons that smelled of grease. Most of these weapons were tridents.

For the sirens, weapons such as spears and tridents are most effective when they fight underwater.

There were more than a hundred wooden boxes, all of which were filled with magic weapons suitable for the sirens. These magic weapons did not come from the logistics warehouse of the Silver Pegasus Military, but were purchased by Claire in Castletown City.

The Sirens have tough scales, so it would be inconvenient for them to fight in the sea wearing armor, so Roy did not bring any armor with him.

Commander Alcesar didn't expect that Roy actually gave some support to the Siren Legion...

After randomly opening two wooden boxes, they still found brand new tridents. Only then did Commander Alcesar let down his guard and thanked Roy repeatedly...

……

For the sirens, Roy brought the gift they needed most, so of course they had to give back to Roy. The sirens also wanted to save face.

The Sirens have occupied the western waters for so many years, and naturally have accumulated some precious items.

The two sides returned to the tent again, and Commander Alcesar sent someone out to fetch some things...

Soon, the sirens came into the tent carrying a large box. Commander Arcesa ordered his sirens to open the box. The box was filled with pearls that glowed with golden light. Roy had heard that magicians needed magic pearls when making staffs.

These magic pearls are very expensive in the magic market and can almost only be bought at auction houses.

I didn't expect that Commander Alcesar would give me a whole box of magic pearls...

Roy did not delay and directly put the box of pearls into the magic waist bag, and then talked to Commander Alcesar about the Dark Faceless Legion.

"If you need my help on the battlefield here, you can send someone to find Jie Zena at the entrance of Sun Island Bay. She will be able to pass the message to me. Then I can send out a magic airship to suppress those dark faceless warriors from the air..."

Roy said to Commander Arcesa before leaving.

"I hope you can win a great victory in the next naval battle."

This time Roy brought some magic weapons, mainly because he wanted to get in touch with the sea beast priest. After all, it was likely that the two sides would have to deal with the Dark Faceless Legion together...

Roy was not as optimistic as Commander Arcesa about the battle situation.

He felt that even if all the Siren Legions in the Partington plane were gathered together, they might not be able to defeat the Dark Faceless One.

Therefore, there is a very high chance that the Half-Elf Mine Guard will join the battle later.

Roy did not stay here for too long. After saying goodbye to Commander Arcesa, he returned to Sun Island Bay with gifts.

……

Captain Tiprado has brought some half-elves to build fortifications on the mountains outside the Sun Island Bay. According to Roy's idea, a row of sentry towers will be built on these two mountains that are dozens of kilometers long and extend deep into the sea.

Due to the complex mountain environment and the difficulty in mining stones, the construction of the arrow tower outpost did not proceed smoothly.

At Roy's suggestion, the magic airship brought 5,000 highland headhunter prisoners from the Highland City. These prisoners built arrow towers on the mountain ridges, and soon eight arrow towers appeared at the entrance of the Sun Island Bay...
