Path of Light.

Chapter 715 716. Appointment Letter

Thinking of Captain Helick who fought hard in the icy and snowy environment, Roy admired his leadership ability very much.

In fact, if possible, Roy would like to have Captain Helic come to the Sun Island Bay to command the elven warriors of the mine guard regiment, while Captain Tiprado would be in charge of the Griffin Cavalry Regiment.

But considering Captain Helic's identity as a rebel, Roy knew that doing so would make the Silver Moon Elf nobles even more dissatisfied.

His reputation among the Silver Moon Elf nobles was already very bad. If he transferred a rebel general to Sun Island Bay, it was very likely that the Silver Moon Elf nobles would make a fuss about it and send him to the Buenos Aires Council of High Elf Elders.

After thinking about it, I decided to forget it...

The population of Plateau City has skyrocketed in the past six months. The biggest reason is the notice Roy wrote on the bulletin board in the small square at the gate of Plateau City, which indirectly led some half-blood elves from Padstow City to move here. The number of half-blood elves who moved here exceeded 200,000.

Today, the plateau city is packed to the brim. Even though the prisoner-of-war concentration camp has been moved outside the city, the city still seems a bit crowded.

The Plateau City is backed by the Tolai River and is surrounded by the river on three sides. In addition, various infrastructure projects were taken into consideration when the city was first built. Therefore, after the city was filled with half-elves, it did not become a mess, but instead appeared to be well organized.

Roy was walking on the street and heard the half-blood elves discussing the battle situation in Sun Island Bay.

Everyone was worried that the Dark Army would rush out of the sea, but many half-elves were very optimistic and believed that the Dark Army in the sea would not be able to land and climb up to the Pagisto Plateau.

Half-blood elves would discuss these wars on the streets, and no one was too worried that the Dark Army would reach the Pagisto Plateau.

I am just worried that the appearance of the Dark Army in the Partington plane will cause a devastating blow to the ecology of the entire plane. For example, the entire western sea area is turning dark...

This change in the environment is definitely not a good thing for the elves.

……

The magic airship only stayed in the Plateau City for half a day, loaded with a large number of magic metal ingots in the Plateau City, and then quickly took off to the city of Padstow.

The biggest advantage of sailing on a magic airship is that it does not affect rest, and Roy can have a good sleep in the cabin.

It was night when the magic airship arrived at Padstow. The lights all over the mountains made this rapidly rising city form a long light belt in the dark.

There are large tracts of apple orchards surrounding the city of Padstow. Roy could even smell the fragrance while standing on the deck of the magic airship.

As the magic airship gradually lowered its altitude, the lights in front of them became clearer and clearer. The captain of the magic airship turned on the propulsion device at the stern and adjusted the gliding trajectory of the magic airship during the descent.

Padstow is a forest city with a very elven character, with tree houses all over the mountains.

The lights at night shone through the tree house. Looking down from the sky, Roy was dazzled and couldn't tell where was where...

After getting out of the magic airship, Roy realized that he didn't even have a tree house of his own in Padstow. Every time he passed by Padstow in a hurry, he would either stay in a hotel or take the magic airship directly to the Plateau City.

Arriving in Padstow so late, Roy could only find a tree house hotel to stay in the city.

Walking along the wide street, the most lively place at night is the pub along the street. The half-blood elves also like to drink orange sparkling wine, which tastes sour and sweet and is very good.

Roy prefers the ale brewed by the dwarves to orange wine.

There are many hotels along the street, and in the wooden houses under the trees of these hotels, the front desk receptionists are all young half-elf girls. These beautiful girls with pointy ears stand in front of the counter, and looking through the clean glass windows, they look clean and sweet in the warm light.

The city was showing Roy another kind of beauty, which Roy had never noticed.

The streets are brightly lit...

At this time, Roy thought of Moira who was studying at the Castletown Elf Academy. If Moira could be by his side on the brightly lit street, this night would probably be wonderful.

The Elven Elder Council is located on the Tree of Life in the city of Padstow, and the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters is also located here.

The place where Roy and Director Berkeley met was a tavern with soothing light music playing, but few of the elves who came here to sit were there to drink, because a glass of orange wine was really not cheap here.

However, the environment in the tavern is very good, especially the beautiful half-elf girls standing behind the bar selling drinks.

"Why did you come here suddenly? What's the situation in Sun Island Bay?"

Chief Berkeley asked Roy as he sat in a chair by the window with a glass of wine.

This is a separate room, through which you can see the lively street scene through the dense branches of the treetops.

Many half-elves choose to come out at night, and the night view of Padstow is much more beautiful than during the day.

Roy leaned back in his chair with a glass of ale in front of him.

"There is a group of sea monsters blocking the front of Sun Island Bay. I have provided them with some material assistance and built a defensive arrow tower in this area. The current situation is relatively stable..."

General Berkeley asked tentatively: "So you came to Padstow City, not to ask me to allocate a large amount of military supplies?"

Roy nodded: "Not for now, how are things going in the Queen Eweni Islands?"

Hearing Roy ask this, Director Berkeley frowned and took a sip of orange wine.

"The gray dwarf bandits are much more cunning than last time, but we are the Silver Pegasus Legion after all, and we are well prepared this time. We will expand the reconnaissance range and attack their three-masted sailing ships from the air. However, the gray dwarf bandits have also installed crossbows on the three-masted sailing ships, which also poses a great threat to our Silver Pegasus Knights."

"Because the Earl implemented a new policy in the Partington plane and made half-blood elves members of the Elven Elders Council, they refused to send more troops to the Queen Ewenni Islands. They want the Earl to remove the half-blood elf members of the Elders Council... before they will send more troops."

Roy didn't expect this to happen. Earl Swinburne had given so much to the Partington plane.

"..."

Finally I know that the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion has been stationed in the Queen Ewenni Islands for so long, and has the strongest flying legion in the elven world, but it is still so conservative when facing the gray dwarf bandits...

What is the problem that Earl Swinburne is facing? The 17th Silver Pegasus Legion has been fighting alone.

No wonder the naval battle in Queen Eweni Islands became so difficult. The reason turned out to be the new policy implemented by Earl Swinburne on the Partington plane.

Come to think of it, Lord Alvis has been running the Partington plane for so many years. On the surface, he bought all the land in the Padstow Forest, and secretly controlled the entire Padstow Plateau and ran the business of selling elven slaves.

In fact, among the Silver Moon Elf nobles, a large number of elves do not dislike Lord Alvis... The Silver Moon Elf nobles appreciate Lord Alvis' attitude towards the half-blood elves. They generally believe that in the elven world, the biggest threat to the Silver Moon elves is these half-blood elves.

Elves have low fertility, but half-elves are different. Their fertility has always been very stable.

Therefore, the population of half-blood elves has been increasing steadily over the years, and half-blood elves can be regarded as a new force in the elven world.

Originally, the Silver Moon Elves thought that half-elves were of humble origins and that they were born to serve the Silver Moon Elves.

Half-blood elves have always been engaged in the lowest level jobs in the elven world, such as night watchmen, gravediggers, and laborers responsible for maintaining the entire city...

As the population of half-elves gradually increased, they began to have some new ideas.

The elves are worried that the half-blood elves will squeeze their living space, but they also hope that some half-blood elves can stay in the city to do low-level jobs, while the rest can enter the plane to live.

They hope that the half-elves can do the hardest and most tiring work, but they are also worried about their growing too big.

Constantly squeezing the living space of the half-blood elves...

Unfortunately, the population of half-blood elves is increasing, and some things cannot be suppressed. Now, a large number of half-blood elves from the Elf Continent are pouring into the Partington plane, so that many cities in the Silver Moon Kingdom of the Elf Continent lack low-level laborers, and some cities cannot even function normally.

At this time, there are still a large number of half-elves who spend all their property and come to the Partington plane with their families.

This is also the root cause of many Silver Moon Elf nobles' dissatisfaction with Earl Swinburne...

The current battle situation in Queen Eweni Islands is that the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion is facing the gray dwarf bandits alone.

As the battle situation in Queen Ivne Islands continues to deteriorate, the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion is now overwhelmed. They need to shrink their front lines as much as possible and put all the remaining legions into Queen Ivne Islands.

General Berkeley is the Chief of Logistics of the Silver Pegasus Legion, so he is naturally very familiar with the current war situation.

"The fleet of the Gray Dwarves appeared in the outer waters of the Queen Ivni Islands. The First, Third, and Fourth Silver Pegasus Knights are in the outermost waters of the Queen Ivni Islands, surrounding and clearing out the three-masted sailing ships of the Gray Dwarves bandits..."

Chief Berkeley introduced Roy, and he even took out a map and pointed out several areas of the Queen Eweni Islands.

Roy was a little surprised. He hadn't heard about the war in the Partington Islands for a long time. He thought the situation in the Queen Evangelical Islands had stabilized. He thought the matter was too simple.

"Is there anything...Is there anything I can do?" Roy asked Captain Berkeley.

"Unless you can spare some manpower to reinforce the Queen Ewenni Islands and drive the gray dwarf bandits back like you did last time..."

Chief Berkeley replied.

Roy thought about it seriously and said firmly:
"In fact, I should be able to spare some manpower to go to the Queen Eweni Islands to help recently."

General Berkeley looked at Roy in surprise. He knew that Roy was dealing with the Dark Faceless Army in Sun Island Bay. In order to defeat the Dark Faceless Army, Roy had been transporting a large amount of military supplies to Sun Island Bay continuously in recent months.

Now he can even take the initiative to propose to transfer some troops to support the Queen Eweni Islands...

This made Chief Berkeley's eyes widen, his mouth opened into an 'O' shape, and he whispered to Roy, "Are you serious?"

Roy nodded and said, "I didn't know the situation in Queen Eweni Islands was so bad..."

"So what are you going to do?"

"I will call back the magic airships right now. As for the shipping work between the two places, just assign one magic airship for the time being. The other magic airships will follow me to the Queen Ewenni Islands. Tomorrow, you will issue me a few teleportation passes for large magic airships to enter and exit the Partington plane."

Roy felt his throat was a little dry, took a sip of beer, and said to Chief Berkeley.

He thought for a moment and added, "I will teach those gray dwarf bandits a lesson this time. It just so happens that there is a shortage of prisoner miners on the Pagisto Plateau, so they should be the ones to do the mining work."

"..."

This time it was Director Berkeley's turn to be speechless...

……

The next morning, Roy came to the Silver Pegasus military headquarters alone.

Currently, the Elf Elder Council of Padstow City is located here. As a member of the council, Roy still doesn't know where the office of the Elf Elder Council is.

He came to the service desk in the lobby on the first floor, and a group of half-elf female receptionists recognized Roy. They thought he was here to see President Berkeley, so someone came out immediately and prepared to take Roy upstairs.

Roy stood at the reception desk and hesitated before asking:
"How do I get to the office of the Elven Elders Council?"

"Captain Roy, please follow me..." A beautiful half-elf took the initiative to lead Roy. They first counted the stairs to the second floor, and then walked through a very long corridor.

When Roy passed through an arched door, he felt the space around him distorted for a moment, and then returned to normal.

After passing through the arched door and walking in the corridor for a while, the half-elf beauty took Roy to a courtroom and said to him, "Captain Roy, this is the temporary office of the Elf Elders Council."

Roy stood at the door and knocked, but heard no response from inside.

He was considering whether to push the door open and take a look inside when the magnificent door was pushed open from the inside by an elf. A Silvermoon Elf civil servant stood at the door and walked out quickly holding a stack of documents.

When the civil servants saw Roy, they immediately knelt down and saluted him.

"Is Council President Christine here?" Roy looked into the courtroom and asked the civil servant.

"Yes, are you Governor Roy on the Pagisto Plateau?" the civil servant asked Roy.

"It's me!" Roy agreed.

"You've come just in time. Speaker Christine was about to send you an appointment document. I didn't expect you to come here in person." The female civil servant looked at Roy excitedly, and pulled out a piece of magic parchment from a pile of documents and handed it to Roy.

Roy took it and unfolded it in front of him. It was indeed a letter of appointment, appointing Roy as a member of the Elf Elders Council of Padstow City...
