Path of Light.

Chapter 723 724. Prisoner of War Camp

Roy continued to ask, but the red-bearded gray dwarf refused to say another word.

Before leaving, he muttered: "We just want to occupy a few more islands and expand our living space."

Roy didn't quite believe what the Red Bearded Gray Dwarf said. A fleet of 100,000 Gray Dwarf bandits was willing to go to war with the Silver Moon Elves. Roy guessed that they must have reached some kind of agreement with the Naga Sea Clan.

During the naval battle at Queen Ewenni Islands, the Silver Moon Elves drove the Naga Sea Clan into the deep sea, and the Naga Sea Clan were forced to acknowledge that Queen Ewenni Islands belonged to the elves.

It is very likely that the Naga Sea Clan has changed their mind now.

Roy was unable to find out the reason why the gray dwarf bandits attacked Queen Ewenni Islands, so he had to give up.

What he needs to do now is to transport these gray dwarf prisoners to the Pagisto Plateau. The fastest way is to take a magic airship and fly directly to the plateau city on the Pagisto Plateau.

Eight magic airships have returned to Padstow through the portal, and these magic airships have docked at the airport terminal in Padstow.

After a short rest, these magic airships will devote themselves to the task of transporting the gray dwarf prisoners of war. After all, it is impossible to keep so many gray dwarf prisoners of war in the woods outside the city of Padstow.

By then, the number of magic airships transporting gray dwarf prisoners will increase to eleven.

……

When the gray dwarf prisoners first entered the Partington plane, the half-elves in the city didn't know what was going on.

Soon after, the news of the great victory in the naval battle of Queen Eweni Islands spread throughout the streets and alleys of the city. The half-blood elves were discussing how large-scale this naval battle was to capture so many gray dwarf prisoners.

Roy asked Leisander to be in charge of transporting the gray dwarf prisoners in batches to the Plateau City on magic airships in Padstow.

He also visited Chief Berkeley again and asked him to mobilize the city's security forces to ensure that there would be no trouble in the clearing in the forest where the gray dwarf prisoners were located.

In recent days, half-elf guards have been everywhere in the streets of Padstow.

On the third day after the gray dwarf prisoners arrived in Padstow, the magic airship at the airport terminal was ready.

In the morning, Roy got up from bed very early.

He still didn't have a wooden house in Padstow and usually lived in a hotel.

Coming out of the hotel, a half-elf guard was waiting at the door with a horse. Roy took the reins and asked the half-elf guard, "How are the preparations at the airport terminal going?"

"The gray dwarf prisoners have begun to board the ship." replied the half-elf guard.

"Then let's hurry over there..."

After saying this, Roy tapped the horse's buttocks lightly with his whip, and the warhorse galloped forward along the wooded street.

The sun shines through the dense leaves, falling dottedly on the forest road. The whole road is lush and green. Looking up, you can see the roofs of some tree houses. Some early-rising elves are standing on the terraces of the tree houses. The window of a tree house is pushed open by an elf girl from inside. The elf girl in pajamas sticks her head out to look at the street...

The whole city was full of life. There were not many elves on the streets. Roy was riding a horse on the street.

Two half-elf guards rode behind him...

The crisp sound of horse hooves could be heard far away on the street.

There was a crossroads ahead. Usually, there were fountains and sculptures at the crossroads in elven cities. Roy pulled the reins to slow down the horse...

A silver carriage was coming from the opposite direction. When passing the intersection, Roy turned his head and saw a familiar figure sitting in the carriage. The delicate and beautiful face showed an expression of surprise at this moment.

Roy stopped his horse, and the silver carriage that passed by him also stopped by the roadside. The coachman jumped out and opened the door...

Miss Christine walked out of the car, holding the hem of her skirt with one hand. She was wearing a white lace princess dress. She stood gracefully on the street, looking at Roy with a faint smile.

Roy also dismounted and led the horse to Miss Christine.

"What a coincidence! Good morning, Miss Christine."

"Good morning, Captain Roy!" Miss Christine pursed her red lips and continued, "I heard... you took eight magic airships to the Queen Eweni Islands and happened to encounter a naval battle there?"

Roy nodded and responded, "You are right. This time I brought the gray dwarf prisoners to Partington Island as well. I plan to send them to the Pagisto Plateau. For the next long period of time, these gray dwarf prisoners may need to live in the mine."

"Captain Roy, thank you for coming to support the Queen Evni Islands in time!"

Miss Christine thanked me in a coquettish manner. Her eyes were very clear and looked like a pool of spring water when facing the sunlight.

"Well, it's just a coincidence..."

"Captain Roy, where are you going?"

"I plan to take a group of gray dwarf prisoners to the Plateau City..."

The conversation between the two was ordinary, just like two acquaintances greeting each other on the street, and then Miss Christine said goodbye to Roy.

Seeing her walk into the carriage with her long skirt lifted up, Roy also jumped on the horse and watched Miss Christine's silver carriage slowly leave.

A ray of sunlight shone in through the car window, just revealing the soft outline of Miss Christine's profile. Under the interweaving of light and darkness, her profile seemed to have some kind of magic, which always attracted Roy's attention.

It wasn't until the silver carriage went away that Roy came back to his senses and said to the two half-elf guards waiting behind him:

"let's go!"

This chance encounter gave Roy an indescribable feeling in his heart...

……

When we arrived at the airport terminal, the streets outside the terminal were lined with half-elf guards.

A group of gray dwarf prisoners lined up on the street. They walked into the airport terminal in a mighty procession and went up the stairs.

The condition of these gray dwarf prisoners was very good. At least they were not dirty. Although their faces were a little pale, they were in good spirits. They walked in a line on the street and remained quiet, with only the sound of puffing footsteps.

The gray dwarf prisoners did not recognize Roy. They looked at his back as he rode on his horse, not knowing that this young man who looked very much like a human was the culprit who brought them to the Partington plane...

Roy passed these gray dwarf prisoners and came directly under the giant tree at the airport dock.

Lysander just happened to be walking down the stairs.

When he saw Roy, he said to him, "Boss Roy, the first magic airship is ready. All eight hundred gray dwarf prisoners are on board. The magic airship can set sail at any time."

Roy walked over and said to Raysander, "Raysander, I'll leave the matter in Padstow to you."

"Don't worry, Boss Roy, I will send them all to the magic airship." Leishande assured Roy.

After chatting with Leishande for a few minutes, Roy boarded the magic airship.

The magic airship arrived at the Plateau City smoothly. Roy discussed the expansion plan of the prisoner-of-war concentration camp with Mulin in the city hall of the Plateau City.

Mu Lin walked to the steps outside the city hall, looked helplessly at the group of gray dwarf prisoners in the small square, and said to Roy: "Miss Channing came back from the Nicobar Mountains a few days ago and said that she needed a large number of miners to make those mithril mines operate normally. It seems that I don't need to worry about the miners."

"I will transport 9,000 gray dwarf prisoners this time. You should find a way to settle them down. The gray dwarf prisoners with forging skills should be sent to the forging workshop in the Jiaxi Mountains in batches. Be careful not to send too many gray dwarves at one time."

Roy stood beside Mu Lin and asked him, "Any news from Sun Island Bay?"

"Everything is normal for now."

Fortunately, the prisoner-of-war camp that Mulin built by the river was relatively large. At the beginning, she also took into account that Captain Helike would send a group of plateau headhunters from time to time. In order to prevent the prisoner-of-war concentration camp from being overcrowded soon, Mulin also reserved sufficient space in the planning of the prisoner-of-war concentration camp.

"Boss, we currently have less than 20,000 elven guards in our mine guard corps. You sent so many gray dwarf prisoners of war all at once. In order to maintain the security of Plateau City, should we continue to increase the number of elven warriors in the mine guard corps?"

Mulin asked Roy.
