Path of Light.

Chapter 711 712. On the Eve of the War 3
The warehouse at Sun Island Bay Pier was filled with large quantities of military supplies shipped from Padstow.

The dried fish originally stored in the drying yard in Sun Island Bay are now directly supplied to the headhunters on the Pagisto Plateau. These plateau headhunters usually only eat wild vegetables and animal meat on the plateau and have never tasted the salty dried fish!
Paired with the dried fruits shipped from Padstow, it is naturally delicious.

The plateau headhunter prisoners cannot swim, so they built arrow tower outposts on the mountains. As long as they send a team of half-elves to guard the place where the mountains connect to the inland, they will not be able to escape even if they want to.

After leaving the plateau, these headhunter prisoners all had some difficulty acclimatizing, but they had very good physical conditions and after a few days of rest, they quickly adapted to the humid and hot environment of Sun Island Bay.

A magic airship loaded with heavy whaling crossbows successfully arrived at the dock of Sun Island Bay. These heavy whaling crossbows will all be set up on the arrow tower outposts on the mountains outside Sun Island Bay.

In preparation for this battle, Roy invested almost all the assets accumulated by the mine guard corps.

There are also a lot of supplies stored in the cities of Plateau, Padstow and Castleton...

Roy transferred all the griffin cavalry on the Pagisto Plateau back to the Sun Island Bay.

So far, there are nearly two thousand griffin riders hovering in the sky.

Nine magic airships were neatly lined up at the port dock. Now, each airship had seven giant whaling crossbows installed on its deck, with one heavy whaling crossbow at the bow and three on each side of the ship.

The crossbow arrows used with the giant whaling crossbow were magic crystal arrows that Roy purchased from the Magic Guild using his connections with the great magician Grahams.

In recent days, Roy has been sending out notices to the half-blood elves in the Sun Island Bay every day, telling them that they can move to the Plateau City and move back at any time after the war subsides. The mine guards will cover part of the travel expenses and also provide some resettlement fees.

However, the half-blood elves in the town of Sun Island Bay are still relatively optimistic about this war. They do not think that the Faceless Legion can enter Sun Island Bay. To put it another way, even if the Faceless Legion enters Sun Island Bay, they can still retreat to the foot of the southern slope of the Griffin Barrier Mountains.

The half-blood elves didn't think that this army of faceless men could chase them all the way to the foot of the mountain...

……

Hearing that there would be a war with the Dark Faceless Legion, Woods also rushed over from Padstow.

He broke into Roy's residence, shouting Roy's name.

Roy had just gotten up from the bed, wearing his pajamas, and pushed open the door of the cabin yawning, when he saw Woods suddenly rushing in front of him from outside and giving him a big hug.

"Hey, Roy, I heard that you were going to fight the Faceless Legion in Sun Island Bay, and I couldn't sit still any longer."

Woods put his arm around Roy's shoulders and they both walked into the cabin.

The blanket on the bed was still in a mess. Roy picked up the teapot and poured Woods a cup of cold fruit tea. He handed it to him and said:

"I was counting on you to make me some more magic potions in Castletown! Why did you come to the Partington plane without even saying hello?"

Woods patted Roy on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry. Even if I'm not here, the alchemy workshop in Castletown will still operate normally and can still make magic potions. But the Partington plane is different. My friends are fighting here, so of course I have to come and help."

Woods stood by the window, from where he could just see the vast sea of ​​Sun Island Bay, and said:
"I heard that you built a city wall in just two months, and there are hundreds of arrow towers on the top of the mountain. When can you take me to see it?"

"So far, there are only seventy, and I don't plan to build any more!" Roy corrected him, and then said, "In the afternoon, you can take the supply ship to go there and take a look."

The two were still chatting, and Roy prepared to have some morning tea and go to the temporary military headquarters set up by the mine guard regiment on the dock.

There must be a lot of official business that has not been dealt with yet. At this time, a half-elf adjutant ran to the door of the wooden house panting and reported to Roy in the house:
"Boss Roy, we have discovered many Faceless Reconnaissance Teams in the outer waters of Sun Island Bay. Ms. Jie Zena has already led a group of Siren Warriors to intercept those Faceless Teams."

"Ask Captain Tiprado to arrange a squadron of griffin cavalry for air support!" Roy ordered without hesitation.

Roy then said to the herald, "Go and ask Kaka to prepare the griffin. I also want to go to the front to observe the enemy situation!"

"Yes, Boss Roy!"

The messenger received Roy's order and immediately turned around and ran out.

……

Soon Kaka rode a griffin and took Roy into the sky. Due to the urgency of the matter, Woods had to be left at the dock on the north coast of Sun Island Bay.

When Roy rode Kaka's griffin over the ring-shaped mountain range, he discovered dozens of griffin cavalrymen hovering over the open sea. They were hovering over the sea, carefully observing the traces of the Dark Faceless Warriors.

Occasionally, there will be columns of water rising into the sky from the sea. The griffin riders need to be extra careful when flying and try to avoid these columns of water as much as possible.

The Griffin Riders discovered several Faceless Men squads in the waters outside the Sun Island Bay.

Those Faceless Warriors appeared in small teams, like some scouts, but their numbers were still quite large.

Once they dive into the seabed, the griffin cavalry will be helpless against them.

When Roy returned to the Sun Island, he just saw the mermaid Jie Zena crawling out of the sea, all wet, and a group of mermaid warriors followed her onto the shore one after another.

"Attias said they were the Faceless Army that captured the North Fjord. I didn't expect them to gather here so soon." Jie Zena said to Roy while twisting the seawater out of her hair.
Roy thought for a moment and said:

"Jizena, I will send griffin cavalry to support you in the air. You can try to lure them to the surface of the sea, and then we will work together to teach them a lesson."

Jie Zena's eyes lit up, and she turned to the siren warriors who had just crawled out of the sea and asked:

"Do you want to take another risk with me?"

A Siren warrior stepped forward and reported to Zeina:

"Captain Jie Zena, those faceless warriors are extremely powerful in the sea, and their skin is very tough. It is difficult for our harpoons to hurt them..."

"Of course I know they are strong!"

Zeina looked at the Siren Warrior and said:
"But what can we do? Since they will catch up with us no matter where we run to, we have to face them and find their weaknesses as soon as possible!"

"Whoever wants to go with me, come over here!"

Zetsuana said to a large group of Siren warriors.

They were obviously frightened by the Faceless Warriors. Even when they went to the outer sea for reconnaissance, they just ran back after seeing them from afar...
