Path of Light.

Chapter 760 761. Move the Portal
Roy stood on the steps at the entrance of the Astrologers' Guild, waiting for Oppaia and Grams to come out of the hall.

Every magician passing by the door would look at Roy curiously.

The elves who can enter this wizard tower are all space magicians. Their bodies exude the aura of arcane magic. Some magicians' bodies even become elemental. Electric arcs run around their bodies, sometimes even making crackling sounds.

Roy stood beside the steps, holding the railing with both hands, but unfortunately he couldn't see the beautiful scenery outside from here.

Soon, Grems came over and asked Roy, "I heard that Tariq is causing trouble for you?"

"No, he just wanted me to know how great he is. He didn't want to cause me any trouble..."

Roy shrugged his shoulders and pouted.

Grems nodded and said, "That's good. Have I not congratulated you on officially joining the ranks of the second-level strongmen? Roy, have you had any special insights recently?"

"I had some insights when I was promoted. It was like I had touched the edge of some rules, such as how darkness turned into light..."

Roy followed Grimes's footsteps and walked down the stairs.

Oppaia quickly caught up with them from behind. She changed into a dark magic robe and held a magic book in her hand. She said to the two of them:
"There's a portal downstairs. It's raining outside. Let's just go through the portal!"

"See? Roy, this is the biggest advantage of knowing a space magician. Most of the time, you don't need to choose a means of transportation because there are teleportation halls in every city in the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom." Grahams said, putting his arm around Roy's shoulders.

Oppaiya ignored Grahams's teasing, walked to the front, and led the two of them to the downstairs of the Astrologers' Guild.

Oppaia introduced to Roy that most of the rooms here were magic laboratories, and many magicians liked to rent the laboratories here to study magic topics.

The portal was located in the center of the hall. The room was not very big, and there was a portal in the center that looked like a floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror.

Oppaiia walked into the bronze mirror first, and soon she disappeared from sight.

Roy looked back at Grems, who gave him an encouraging look. Roy walked in with gritted teeth...

When passing through this kind of portal, Roy did not feel the space crack at all. After stepping in, he was already standing on the stone floor on the other side of the portal.

Oppaia was waiting at the door. She saw Roy appear at the portal almost as soon as she stood firm. She immediately reached out to pull him away. Then Grams also walked out of the portal.

This is actually the teleportation hall of the Magic Guild...

The magician in the teleportation hall was very familiar with Oppaiya. When he saw Oppaiya, he came over and greeted her: "Opeia, where are you going?"

"Castleton City."

Oppaiya said with a smile.

"Then we have to go to Moyobamba first before we can get to Castletown."

"Thank you for reminding."

"Bon Voyage!"

The two sides had a brief conversation and did not even check the identities of Roy and Grimes, nor did they ask them to pay the teleportation fee.

The three of them had an unimpeded journey and soon arrived at the teleportation hall of the Castletown Magic Guild...

Roy hailed a carriage at the entrance of the Magic Guild, and the three of them rode non-stop to Castletown Harbor. Here, Roy took the initiative to lead the way. Roy saw a medium-sized sailing ship with the flag of the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion flying on it, so he boarded the ship directly.

The Silver Moon Elf crew on the ship saw the badge on Roy's chest, took the initiative to come forward to salute, and asked Roy:
"Sir, do you need anything?"

"Which ship is the fastest to Partington Island at the port?" Roy asked.

The crewman pointed to the medium-sized sailboat next door and said, "Tuna, they will leave the port before dark and the tide goes out."

Roy nodded, turned around and got off the boat, took Grahams and Oppaia on board the Tuna, and went straight to the captain who was making preparations, and asked him for three rooms.

There should be senior officers of the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion on this ship. The captain did not arrange a cabin for Roy on the second floor of the ship. The cabin for three people was at the end of the first floor of the ship. The cabin was relatively clean...

Thinking that the portal to the Partington plane was about to close, Grimes asked Roy:
"After the portal to the Partington plane is closed, what will happen to your mine guards? Do you have to follow the other troops of the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion and withdraw from the Partington plane?"

"When the Mine Guard was first established, it was created based on the chaotic security situation in the Partington plane. The Mine Guard will not leave the Partington plane. In addition, the Silver Moon Elf nobles will not allow a half-elf army to appear on the Elf Continent..." Roy said.

Grimes nodded to show that he understood.

The three of them rested for a while in their respective cabins, and soon the medium-sized sailing ship left Castletown Harbor.

……

In the afternoon, the medium-sized sailing ship named Tuna left Castletown Harbor.

After leaving the port, the wind and waves on the sea gradually increased.

With its sails inflated, this medium-sized sailboat continued to break through the waves...

Oppaia held the railing at the stern with both hands, looking at the statue of the Silver Moon Elf on the top of the mountain behind Castletown Harbor. Her graceful figure was full of the charm of a mature woman.

Behind her was a narrow corridor on the first floor of the ship. Roy pushed open the cabin door and walked out. She said without looking back:

"I didn't expect that after only a year of not seeing you, you've already been promoted to a Level 2 expert. You've grown really fast."

Roy did not answer, but stood beside Oppaia, holding the railing with both hands like her, staring at the Castletown city in the distance, his eyes full of nostalgia.

"Why aren't you talking?" Oppaia couldn't help but turn her head and look at him.

"It may not be so easy to come to Castletown again in the future." Roy said with some melancholy.

"We have to take this step. Half-elves have long been the biggest social problem of the Silvermoon Elf Kingdom. How could the Silvermoon elves allow half-elves to continue to encroach on the Silvermoon Kingdom? It's just that the separation process this time was a bit tortuous, and a plane war broke out, which suddenly forced them to speed up, and everything became very hasty..." Oppaiya squinted at the clouds in the western sky and said casually.

"You also know... something like this will happen sooner or later?" Roy felt as if he was the only fool who knew nothing.

"Since a large number of half-blood elves have poured into the Partington plane, the Astrologers' Guild has been paying close attention to the portal here. Do you know how many magic crystals are needed every day to keep the portal running? In the future, this amount of magic crystals will need to be shared by 1.5 million half-blood elves." Oppaiya whispered to Roy.

"Think about it... Without the Silver Moon Elves pushing behind them, how could the half-elves migrate to the Partington plane in such a short period of time?" Oppaia added.

"You are just a sail that happened to appear in the wind. Once the wind blows, you fly to the highest point, and generate a strong attraction, pulling the half-elf ship forward."

Oppaiia looked at Roy, the corners of her mouth raised, staring at Roy, the tip of her straight nose almost touching Roy's nose.

"You are now a young half-elf navigator, and your performance during this period has been perfect... Teacher Elaud said that you and Grems are the same kind of elves. No matter what the situation is, you can see the essence of war and the key to victory at a glance."

Oppaiia leaned over to Roy's cheek and kissed him.

Before Roy could react, her body moved lightly away. She took only one step forward, but she crossed the entire corridor in one step and came directly to her room. She opened the door and walked in without looking back.

Roy was the only one left at the stern rail.

Roy didn't expect to hear another interpretation of the Partington plane from Oppaia...

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

That night, Roy tossed and turned in bed and hardly slept. In addition to the naval battle in the waters west of Partington Island, he occasionally saw the scene of Queen Eweni Island burning nearly a hundred three-masted sailing ships of the gray dwarf bandits.

When Roy woke up, it was already daybreak.

Roy simply washed up, walked out of the cabin and came to the narrow restaurant on the ship, only to find that Oppaia and Grahams were sitting in the restaurant, enjoying the breakfast prepared in the restaurant.

……

The medium-sized sailboat was docked at the pier of Partington Island, and Roy took Grahams and Oppaia out of the small harbor pier.

He first brought the two to the safe harbor and checked the progress of the magic airship transformation. Currently, there were only a dozen magic airships anchored in the sea. Roy looked at the sides of the ship and saw that there had been no changes. Even the mounting brackets for the floating devices were not ready...

At present, there are nearly thirty magic airships that have been modified.

Roy discovered that there were a large number of half-blood elves stranded on the beach. These half-blood elves were almost all in family units, and they had built simple tents on the beach of Partington Island.

When passing by the beach, you can also see some half-elf children squatting and playing on the sand by the sea.

The faces of the adult half-blood elves were filled with sorrow...

"Where are you from?" Roy and the other two walked up to several half-elves and asked them.

"We are all from Minascu City and are preparing to go to the Partington plane. Unfortunately, the portal here was closed ten days ago. Currently, the portal to the Partington plane can only be used to exit but not enter. But we no longer have the ability to return to Minascu City and can only stay on the beach here." A middle-aged half-elf man said with embarrassment.

"Don't worry. It probably won't take long until all the Silver Moon Elves leave the Partington plane. The portal will probably be reopened for a while, but you must seize the opportunity by then and don't miss it." Roy reminded several half-blood elves.

“Thank you for your kind reminder…”

The three of them walked across the beach, which looked like a refugee camp, and visited Roy's modified shipyard. Grahams was very interested in the magic airship.

Because of the Silver Moon Elves' no-fly order, magic airships cannot be seen on the Elf Continent.

Grahams usually has no access to the floating device, but this time he wanted to stay on the boat for a while, apparently preparing to study the magic pattern array on the floating device.

This is almost a major characteristic of magicians. No matter where they go, their first focus is always the magic runes on various buildings.

Oppaiya had no intention of understanding the floating device, so she followed Roy into the town of Partington.

The town square was empty. Although the portal was running, no elves came out of it.

Two Silver Moon Elf officials were standing at the portal, chatting idly.

A large group of half-elves were waiting anxiously in the town square, but they were unable to enter the portal.

"Please stay, the portal is currently leading from the Partington plane to Partington Island. If you rashly walk into the portal, it will cause confusion in time and space, and it will be easy to get lost in the space rift..."

A Silvermoon Elf official signaled Roy and Oppaia to stop and not get closer.

Roy wanted to go up and argue with the two Silver Moon Elf officials, but was stopped by Ge.

"At this moment, I think all the Silver Moon elves are hoping to find some fault with you. Be quiet, I will handle the matters related to the portal..."

Oppaia walked up to them, pointed to the magic badge on her chest, and said to the two Silver Moon Elf officials: "The Astrologers' Union is routinely checking the working status of Portal No. 152 on Partington Island..."

As he spoke, in front of the two stunned Silver Moon Elf officials, he took over the control of the portal and casually changed the transmission direction of the portal.

Oppaia even checked the teleportation coordinates of the portal before waving to Roy, signaling him to go through first.

As Roy passed through the portal, Oppaia turned to the two Silver Moon Elf officials and said:
"Let's go check the condition of the portal first. You'd better not use it for now. I suspect that you two haven't obtained the authorization letter issued by the Astrologers' Union for operating the portal. If your improper operation has caused the service life of the portal to be greatly shortened, I will ask the Elf Elder Council to compensate our Astrologers' Union..."

After Oppaia's words, the two Silver Moon Elf officials were sweating profusely.

The two of them quickly took two steps back, saying repeatedly that they had not touched the magic core of the portal recently.

This time it was Oppaia's turn to turn around and walk into the portal with disdain...

In the central square of Padstow, Oppaia did not leave with Roy. She needed to do some preliminary preparations for the portal, which was to actually test the specific parameters of the portal and prepare for the relocation of the portal.

The overall height of the portal on the central square of Padstow is more than 30 meters, and the width is more than 10 meters. The magic airship can just fly in by brushing the edge of the portal.

Moving such a big door is actually a huge project...
