Chapter 725 726. The Elves Holding the Truth
"Have you ever heard the saying 'The bow and arrow is the truth'?"

Roy turned to Mulin and asked.

"Um, Boss, you are so humorous..."

Mu Lin thought that Roy might be trying to make her laugh, but the smile on her face seemed a little forced.

Then Mu Lin saw that Roy's expression didn't seem like he was joking, and heard Roy continue:
"Only by holding the truth can we have equality and freedom!"

Mu Lin gradually came to his senses and sighed:
"Think about it, there were about 50,000 half-blood elves living on the Pagisto Plateau. At the beginning, our group of half-blood elves were distributed in various canyons in the southern part of the plateau. The climate in the western forest of the plateau was harsh, and few elves were willing to go there. If it weren't for the headhunters of the plateau launching a slave hunting operation, we might never have hidden in that forest full of fir and red pine trees."

"If we had formed a half-elf army earlier, those highland headhunters might not have been able to hunt us like prey."

"In fact, they are the natives of the plane. The weapons in their hands are not even iron, and their knowledge of magic is limited to spells. We elves have the most advanced magic, the most sophisticated magic weapons, and our combat skills are not inferior to those headhunters on the plateau. We can actually be captured by them on the plateau. Now that I think about it, we are really too weak."

"In fact, they already had very good weapons at that time, all provided by the mine owners on the plateau." Roy said.

"Boss, I will grasp the truth and keep an eye on this plateau city." Mu Lin said confidently.

Roy walked down the steps, got on a carriage, turned to Mulin and said:
"Since you said that, I will go to Sun Island Bay to check out the situation there. You stay here and help me keep an eye on these gray dwarf prisoners. Those who are good at forging will be sent to the forging workshop first. The other gray dwarf prisoners will be detained in the prisoner camp to let them know the rules here. If anyone is restless, send them to the spinel mine in the southern part of the plateau in advance. If you find any gray dwarves who escape, let Tennyson deal with them."

"Tennyson, did you hear that?" Roy tried to ask the air around him.

Captain Tennyson immediately emerged from the shadows behind the carriage and responded to Roy in the carriage: "Listen carefully, boss! If they dare to walk out of the prisoner-of-war camp privately, I will bury their bodies at the edge of the wilderness as fertilizer..."

Every time Mulin saw the leader of the Dark Moon Elves, he would feel cold all over. When he first met Tennyson, he didn't feel so scary to Mulin. Now... Mulin felt that he might have been promoted from an assassin to a second-level Abyss Walker, which was why he exuded such a terrifying aura.

Roy said "very good" and left in the carriage. Captain Tennyson didn't even say hello to Mulin. He turned around and disappeared into the shadows.

……

The magic airship arrived at the Sun Island Bay at dusk. The moment the bottom of the ship touched the sea surface, a large amount of water splashed up and the hull shook violently for a while before calming down.

The ship was loaded with supplies bound for Sun Island Bay, all of which were shipped from Plateau City.

The waves on the sea were not very strong, and there were griffin cavalry escorts all around. The captain quickly drove the magic airship into the dock on the north coast of Sun Island. Roy got off the magic airship. Captain Tiprado was waiting at the dock with a group of griffin cavalry officers. Sabrina, Kaka, and little Eugene were also standing among a large group of squadron leaders.

Roy came to Captain Tiprado, hugged him first, and then asked him: "Captain Tiprado, those faceless men didn't rush into the Sun Island Bay!"

"Not yet, but without the magic airships to provide aerial support, the Siren Corps can only guard the exit of Sun Island Bay. Now a large number of Dark Faceless Men have gathered in the sea outside Sun Island Bay, cutting off the connection between here and the Siren outside."

Captain Tiprado said worriedly.

"In addition, our magic crossbow arrows have been almost used up. Without the support of the whale-hunting crossbow, the battle between the Siren Warriors and the Faceless Warriors will be at a disadvantage."

Roy asked doubtfully, "Even with the blessings of the priests of the Knights Templar, will we still be at a disadvantage in a battle with the Faceless Warriors?"

"Not only do we have the blessings of the priests, but we also have the singing of the sirens and the amplification of the war dance of our half-elf sword dancers during the battle. However, we are still at a disadvantage fighting those faceless warriors in the sea," added Captain Tiprado.

Roy scratched his head in distress.

"It may take about a week to replenish the magic crossbow arrows. I will go to Sun Island to talk to Zetsu Na tomorrow morning."

Roy said and walked out of the port terminal.

"There won't be any problems at Queen Eweni Islands for now. Next, I will go all out to organize the battle here. We still have too few magic airships. Next, I will gradually upgrade 30 magic airships and send them to the battlefield at Sun Island Bay. In addition, I will order a batch of storm longbows equipped by the great elf archers from the Legion Logistics Department to form our own archer regiment."

Roy said to Captain Tiprado as they walked.

"You Griffin Cavalry should not be reluctant to throw the short flying spears. As long as you find traces of the Faceless Men at sea, don't worry about whether you can hit them, just throw the short flying spears first. I have begun to expand the forging workshop. In the future, there will be more than 5,000 blacksmiths who will make these short flying spears with barbs specifically for us. There will be so many that you will not be able to use them all..." After crossing the 100-meter-wide beach, Roy walked into the half-elf town in the woods.

He stopped outside the town, turned around and said to the officers of the Griffin Cavalry Regiment following behind him: "This is a tough and long battle, but I believe that with our current strength, we can definitely hold on to this bay."

"I know someone will want to ask me, these dark faceless men can only show their power in the ocean. Once they come to land, they will become weak shrimps. Then we give up the Sun Island Bay and only guard the land in the north of the bay. It doesn't take much effort to defend it, and we don't have to contact the dark faceless warriors in advance. Wouldn't it avoid a lot of trouble?"

When it comes to this, many middle-level officers in the Griffin Cavalry Regiment set their sights on Sabrina...

Everyone thought Sabrina might be the informant, otherwise how would Boss Roy know about their complaints.

Sabrina maintained a calm expression and ignored the questioning looks.

However, Captain Tiprado rebuked these middle-level officers:

"Put away your little thoughts quickly, everyone. They are almost written all over your face."

The half-elf officers lowered their heads quickly.

At this time, Roy took the opportunity to say to everyone:

"What I want to tell everyone is that the Dark Faceless Men will not attack the land."

"But once they control all the sea areas of the Partington plane, they will bring other dark legions to the Partington plane. By then, we will have completely missed the best opportunity to cooperate with the Sirens."

"The half-elf warriors who followed me to the Dark Gate Expeditionary Camp may have seen the dark creatures there, but they are not familiar with the Dark Legion. The Dark Legion has four most powerful troops, namely the Nakma Demon Legion, the Nibru Spider Legion, the Demon Legion and the Faceless Legion. The Dark Faceless Legion controls the ocean, but the other three armies are on land."

"I have seen the Nakma Demon Army outside the Brinniya Expeditionary Force camp. Those dark knights riding nightmare beasts are more like the unicorn army of our Elf Kingdom. Once these dark armies enter the Partington plane, they will be the biggest trouble."

"So we must help the Sirens defend the last area of ​​the sea at this time, accumulate strength, and wait for the best time to counterattack. Anyway, we are fighting at high altitudes, so the danger will be much smaller."

"Next, I will not only strive to equip everyone with the most advanced magic weapons and armor, but will also recruit more half-elf guards to join this war."

"Let's drive these dark faceless men back to the deep sea..."

Roy's words made the blood boil among the half-elf officers, and some of them immediately began to respond enthusiastically.

The half-blood elves in the town heard the shouting outside the town and ran out to check the situation, only to see a group of half-blood elf officers walking in.

Most of the half-blood elves in the town were family members of the Griffin Cavalry Regiment. They knew Roy, and when they saw Captain Tiprado and Roy walking in front, they asked Roy loudly:

"Boss Roy, when can we go out to sea to fish?"

"Yes, Boss Roy, ever since these sea monsters entered the Sun Island Bay, the number of fish in the bay has obviously decreased, and now fishing has been banned."

Roy stopped and said to these half-blood elves again:
"This situation can last for a while. Due to the invasion of the Dark Faceless, I opened the Sun Island Bay to the Sirens, and a large number of merfolk also hid in the Sun Island Bay. During this period, the fish in the bay will become less and less, so while we still have food supply, I will give all the fishery resources of the Sun Island Bay to our allies, the Sirens who resist the Faceless Warriors day and night."

“I will find a way to resolve this situation, but please give me some time. After all, it will take more than a day or two to eliminate the Faceless Legion.”

"If anyone wants to move to the Pagisto Plateau, they can take the magic airship and leave at any time."

A group of half-blood elves crowded at the entrance of the town. When they heard what Roy said, they all expressed their unwillingness to leave the newly built town.

After comforting the half-blood elves in the town, Roy followed Captain Tiprado back to the cavalry camp.
