Path of Light.

Chapter 765 766. Roy's Battle Plan

The magic airship that Roy was on was the last to enter the wind layer. After raising the ball sail, the magic airship turned its bow along the wind direction. As the white sail on the main mast swelled, the magic airship began to sail at high speed.

The Silver Pegasus Knights did not want to fly into the wind layer and suffer from the frost, so they could only fly low over the sea surface. The so-called low altitude was about a hundred meters above the sea surface...

However, in this case, the Silver Pegasus Knights' travel speed will be far faster than the magic airship.

The magic airship arrived at the Queen Evian Islands in the afternoon. Soon at night, it became safer for the magic airship to sail in the wind layer. After flying all night, the sea beneath its feet finally turned a deep blue.

Roy did not choose to fly directly over Kui Island and then land in the sea around Kui Island.

Fifteen magic airships chose to land in the sea 20 nautical miles away from Kui Island, and then hid behind a small island. Roy did not find the three-masted sailing ship of the gray dwarf robbers in the surrounding waters, and thought that there was a deviation in the nautical chart.

Jie Zena sent out a siren reconnaissance team that quickly jumped into the endless sea and explored in the direction of Kui Island pointed out by Roy.

Finally at noon, the Siren reconnaissance team returned to the fleet smoothly. The information brought back by the Siren warriors was that there was indeed a volcanic island 20 nautical miles ahead. There was a port dock on the south side of the island. There were at least forty three-masted sailing ships moored near the dock. In addition to the three-masted sailing ships, there were more than a dozen five-masted sailing ships, and there were also many small wooden boats on the dock.

There are many gray dwarves on the dock, and all the ships are guarded by gray dwarves. There is even a row of dwarf-made cannons and catapults on both sides of the dock.

This is indeed a hiding place for the gray dwarf bandits...

This sea area belongs to the territory of the Naga sea clan. If the sirens rashly appear here, they will inevitably be hunted down by the Naga sea clan.

Roy hadn't thought of doing it during the day.

His action plan this time also drew on the combat experience of the Siren Raid Regiment and prepared to launch a surprise attack on the island of Kui.

For a whole day, Roy had everyone in the captain's room, working on battle deployment based on the nautical chart.

Fifteen magic airships hid in the shadow of the island.

We waited until it was completely dark before secretly setting sail and leaving the island.

Under the guidance of the Siren warriors, these half-elf captains successfully arrived at the west side of Kui Island at midnight.

……

In the conference room of Magic Airship No. 4, Roy, Captain Jeroin, Captain Flint, the Siren Jezena, Captain Timothy, Sabrina, Miss Tiffany, Moira, and a group of half-elf officers completed the final deduction.

Adjutant Walker pushed open the wooden door of the conference room and said to Roy who was standing in front of the map:

"Boss, we have arrived at the designated location."

Roy nodded and said to everyone in the room: "Everyone, start the action!"

He stood in front of Captain Timothy and said to him, "Captain Timothy, please be sure to protect the priests who are following you."

"Boss, please rest assured, I know what to do!"

Head of the group, Timothy, was the first to walk out of the temporary meeting room.

He came to the deck and immediately went to other magic airships to summon the Dark Moon Elf assassins. This time Roy brought 1,200 Dark Moon Elf warriors from Plateau City. They were the most elite forces of the assassination regiment. They were usually stationed in Plateau City. A while ago, they followed Miss Channing Sitney to the Nicobar Mountains to explore the abandoned mines there.

However, recently Miss Channing Sitney began to restore the abandoned mines in the Nicobar Mountains and led two thousand half-elf guards to the Nicobar Mountains.

The Assassin Corps can only rest in the Plateau City...

Roy brought the Assassins here this time because he hoped they would sneak into the dense forests of Kuei Island in the dark, create chaos on Kuei Island as quickly as possible, and wait for an opportunity to occupy the bunker built by the gray dwarves on Kuei Island.

In order to ensure that the Dark Moon Elf warriors of the Assassin Corps had sufficient combat power, Roy asked Captain Flint to lead fifty priests to follow the Assassin Corps.

Another team operating at night is the 1,500 Siren warriors led by Jie Zena. This time, the Siren warriors need to sneak attack the Gray Dwarf fleet on the dock at night. As long as these three-masted sailing ships are destroyed, the Gray Dwarf bandits will be trapped and die on this volcanic island.

The Kraken Raiders will sink all the ships at the docks on Que Island at night...

Afterwards, four thousand half-elf guard warriors, with the blessing of the priests, will attack the Kui Island Pier from the front.

……

When everything was ready, Jie Zena was the first to jump from the deck into the sea, and the Siren warriors standing on the side of the ship jumped into the sea one after another.

The Siren warriors hid in the cabin for nearly three days. Even though the sea water in the cabin had begun to smell fishy, ​​it was not until the evening that these Siren warriors came out of the airtight cabin. After enjoying the sea breeze on the deck for a while, they followed Jie Zena and jumped into the sea.

Following closely, Captain Timothy led the Dark Moon Elf warriors and quietly slid into the sea.

Darkmoon elves are also good at swimming, but it is still a bit difficult to swim across five kilometers of sea...

In order to allow these Dark Moon Elf warriors to reach Kui Island quickly, the Siren warriors jumped into the sea in advance, and each of them dragged a Dark Moon Elf warrior and swam towards Kui Island.

This time, the raiding group was led by Captain Timothy, the Siren Zeina, and Captain Flint. Moira and Tiffany were also in the assassination group and went to fight with the army...

One hundred priests, led by Captain Flint, also followed the Dark Moon Elf assassins to sneak into Kui Island.

One thousand Siren warriors were surrounded by six blessing halos. When they sailed through the sea, straight water lines appeared on the sea surface under the night sky.

……

Although it was late at night, there were still some lights on at the Kui Island Pier in the distance.

The dock was full of large and small ships, all of which had their sails folded and their anchors dropped. Only a few gray dwarf warriors who stayed on the ships were sitting on the deck, enjoying the cool air and drinking.

There were also some gray dwarf robbers standing on the lookout tower of the main mast. Although it was pitch black at night, these gray dwarf robbers kept scanning the dark sea in the distance.

"Didn't they say that a lighthouse was going to be built at the pier?"

The bearded gray dwarf standing on the observation tower took a half-bottle of cider and took a sip. The beer-bellied gray dwarf bandit who was huddled next to him immediately cursed, "Those damned logistics craftsmen didn't even consider the lighthouse construction plan when they were building the dock."

"I heard that the whaling group has captured several large whales, and they will be brought back to the dock soon to be refined into whale oil. With lamp oil, the lighthouse on the dock will soon be put on the construction schedule." The bearded gray dwarf said drunkenly.

The beer-belly gray dwarf immediately complained:
"So what if there is no lighthouse? Do those Silver Moon Elves still dare to come to Kui Island? Don't they worry about the wrath of the Naga Sea Clan?"

The sea breeze on the volcanic island is very cool and dry. Night is the most comfortable time on the ship. When the sun rises, the heat wave will sweep across the entire island of Kuei. The gray dwarf bandits can only hide in the cabin and sleep...

Just on the beach west of the Kuei Island Pier, darkness swallowed up the vision of the gray dwarf bandits. Some of the gray dwarves guarding in front of the catapults went into the tents nearby. Only a few gray dwarves patrolled back and forth on the beach. They walked barefoot on the beach, leaving messy footprints.

These gray dwarves were so sleepy that they didn't even notice a row of wet footprints appearing on the beach ten meters away. The footprints were constantly washed away by the waves and reappeared again.

……

In the darkness, there were always several pairs of eyes staring at the catapult position here.

Since other places were covered with sea reefs covered with oysters, the Assassins chose this beach as their landing point.

Captain Timothy and Moira squatted behind the sea rocks and watched all the Dark Moon Elf warriors pass by the beach. Then he patted Moira on the shoulder and took her into the bushes beside the beach.

One hundred priests followed the Dark Moon Elf assassins to land on the island. They were picked up by the Dark Moon Elves and took the most stable and safe path along the reef cliffs. All the priests were lowered to the island by ropes.

The priests joined forces with the Dark Moon Elf assassins and immediately moved deeper into the island.

They will create some chaos deep in the island of Que, so the battle needs to start from here. There are no gray dwarf bandits around, so Captain Timothy said to Moira:

"If we follow Tennyson's fighting style, I'm afraid not many of the gray dwarves there would survive the Assassin's Regiment passing through the catapult position just now."

"Although we will seize the catapult position and perhaps destroy all the catapults, our whereabouts will be exposed in advance."

"Tennyson will require the gray dwarf bandits in the catapult camp to die at the same time. In that case, if we are lucky, we can delay the fight for a while."

"Moira, you are a thoughtful person. Don't learn Tennyson's reckless and bloodthirsty character..."

Moira blinked at Captain Timothy and whispered back, "Teacher Tennyson always says that about himself."

"Of course he is aware of his shortcomings. I just hope that you young people will not be influenced by Tennyson. Impulsiveness is often the biggest taboo for assassins." Captain Timothy whispered to Moira.

The Assassin Corps quickly passed through the rainforest. Although it was their first time here and they were very unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, these Dark Moon Elves all came from the Evernight Forest, and the Dark Moon Elf warriors were already accustomed to operating in the dark.

The dense jungle could not stop the Dark Moon Elf warriors, and Roy made some analysis of Que Island. He believed that the gray dwarves would definitely build their bunker at the foot of the volcano.

And build some outposts around the gray dwarf bunker.

The Assassin Corps had to walk through a ten-kilometer tropical rain forest and find the gray dwarf bandit bunker at the foot of the volcano...

In the jungle, on a wooden sentry post, a gray dwarf bandit was dozing off against a wooden door. In the room above the sentry post, several gray dwarf bandits were snoring, and their snoring covered up the assassin's light footsteps.

The assassins swarmed up the stairs.

One of them stood behind the gray dwarf bandit guarding the gate, while the other assassins sneaked into the sentry room in cat-like steps.

The assassin guarding the door stretched out his hand, which went around the gray dwarf bandit's neck like a snake, and then three fingers grabbed the gray dwarf bandit's throat like an eagle's claws, instantly suppressing the terrified cry he made the moment he woke up.

Then the dagger held in the other hand would be inserted into the gap between the right ribs and stabbed directly into the heart. The dagger was pointed and thin, with strong penetrating power, but the blade was also very sharp. The assassin could cut off the four main arteries of the heart with a slight flip of his wrist.

A thick stream of blood gushed out from the wound...

The gray dwarf bandit's body suddenly burst out with a powerful explosive force, and the assassin could not even lock the gray dwarf bandit's body. However, as the gray dwarf bandit's heart tube was cut off, the gray dwarf bandit's explosive force caused the blood in his body to spurt out, and the gray dwarf bandit lost all his strength at this moment.

The assassin was worried that the gray dwarf was pretending to be dead, so he reached out and felt around the back of his neck. The hand holding the dagger moved smoothly around his neck, and the bearded head of the gray dwarf fell to the door of the sentry post with a gurgle.

A silent battle broke out in the room at this moment. These assassins almost simultaneously cut off the throat and carotid artery of the gray dwarf bandit with daggers, and then stabbed him in the heart.

There was no time to clean up the battlefield and confirm that all the gray dwarf bandits were killed, so these assassins with blessed halos on their feet immediately moved their positions.

Almost at the same time, the five outposts at the foot of the volcano were occupied by the Assassin Corps.

Captain Timothy discovered that the priests' blessing magic actually raised the combat power of all Dark Moon Elf assassins to the peak combat power of the first transformation...

In the past, some of these assassins' movements might not have been so smooth in the dark, but with the blessing of the divine art, assassinating the gray dwarf warriors was completed so easily...

Soon these assassins ran out of the sentry post and, led by Captain Timothy, quickly moved towards the entrance of the bunker.

……

This is a bunker built against the mountain. Most of the facilities are built underground. The part exposed above the ground looks like a small stone house. When you push open the main door of the stone house, you can see a staircase extending downwards.

Two gray dwarf night watchmen were dozing off against the stone wall at the entrance of the bunker, holding double axes.

It was silent all around at night; even the chirping of insects and the cry of night owls had stopped. There were even some night birds flying over the bunker.

Unfortunately, the two gray dwarf robbers at the door didn't notice it at all...

Captain Timothy walked into the bunker in person. He stood at the steps at the door and looked to both sides. While covering the mouth of the gray dwarf bandit with one hand, he cut off the head of the gray dwarf bandit with the dagger in his hand.

On the other side, a Dark Moon Elf officer made the same move as Captain Timothy.

The two heads rolled down almost at the same time. Timothy's left hand stretched out like lightning and firmly grabbed the falling gray dwarf head.
