Path of Light.

Chapter 791 792. Return to Castletown
When the half-blood elves on Partington Island saw Roy, they recognized him immediately.

People stood on the street, constantly shouting his name and greeting him enthusiastically.

"Hey, good afternoon, Boss Roy!"

"Hey, that's Boss Roy... Why is he here?"

"Boss Roy? Where is he? Impossible! He should be in the Partington plane now!"

"It's really Boss Roy!"

Elves kept looking at Roy, and some waved at him. Roy responded one by one, and then walked into the town in the belly of the mountain.

The town of Partington remains the same, the only difference is that the portal in the town square is gone.

This is not the only way to the Partington plane, so the town square suddenly became much quieter.

Roy stood beside the square and saw two huge stone pillars left after the portal was removed. The entire town square became empty...

There are even a few half-blood elves setting up stalls here.

Roy sighed softly. Because of the magic herbs, Partington Island was once the most prosperous island nearby. Although the island is now crowded with half-elves, the economy of the town is gradually going downhill.

Arriving at Nancy's hotel on the second floor of the rock wall at the edge of the town, Roy stood at the door and knocked gently.

Nancy came out, pushed open the wooden door, saw Roy, and said to him with a smile:
"I thought you would be busy for a while, but I didn't expect you to return to Partington Town so soon. Is everything going well on Kui Island?"

"I asked my friends from the Magic Guild for help, so everything went smoothly. Kui Island is also very suitable for us to garrison. The gray dwarf bandits even built an underground castle on the island, which has a natural volcanic furnace, which is just right for refining magic metals."

Roy said as he walked into Nancy's house.

"It looks like we've gained a lot recently!"

The way Nancy looked at Roy was as if she were looking at her own nephew.

"Well, in the Partington plane, the Siren tribe formed a great alliance and just fought a battle with the Dark Faceless Legion. The Siren Legion won a great victory. Currently, the Dark Faceless Legion has retreated into the lightless abyss of the sea."

Roy said to her excitedly while drinking the lemon tea brought by Nancy.

"If the elf nobles in Buenos Aires heard this news, they would probably be so angry that they couldn't sleep!" Nancy responded with a smile as she sat elegantly opposite Roy.

"I came back this time to end my business in Castletown and shut down the alchemy workshop there. I still have the last payment to settle with the imperial merchants. They have already modified the last batch of magic airships and parked them in the sheltered fjord..." Roy said.

"These imperial merchants really trust you."

"Thank you, Nancy. If you hadn't told me the location of Kuei Island, I might have stayed in the Partington plane now..."

After Roy finished speaking, he stood up, bowed to Nancy, and formally thanked her.

"I just gave you a little advice. You did all this on your own." Nancy said to Roy, "I didn't expect our Roy to grow up so quickly. When I first met you, you were just a student in the Elf Academy, but in the blink of an eye you have become an officer."

"Kui Island is located on the west side of the Endless Sea. This archipelago is very large, and there are some gray dwarf bandits entrenched on other islands. They will not give Kui Island to you so easily. You may have to fight with those gray dwarf bandits in the future. You must be prepared for a long-term battle."

Nancy admonished Roy.

"I know, and I will respond." Roy said firmly.

He currently has the Half-Elf Guards, the Assassins, the Griffin Cavalry, the Knights Templar, the Siren Raiders, and the Magic Airship Fleet. As long as he combines these regiments together, he can defeat the gray dwarf bandits with overwhelming advantage.

Talking about those gray dwarf bandits, Roy remembered that the treasure map was still in his hands, and he should find the treasure when he has time.

I heard that the gray dwarf bandits entrenched near Kuei Island are all looking for Captain Ralph's treasure map...

After drinking a cup of tea at Nancy's place, Roy left some gifts he brought from the Partington plane and then said goodbye to Nancy.

……

Afterwards, Roy came to the Sheltering Fjord.

The great wizard Grimes was waiting for him on the beach. The shipyard in the sheltered bay had been completely dismantled, and the large wooden frames that supported the bottom of the three-masted sailing ships on the beach were gone.

It looked like it had been dismantled by these half-elves to build tents.

Eight magic airships quietly docked in the sea...

Standing on the beach, Roy could clearly see the half-elf crew members on the deck.

"Don't tell me... these eight magic airships are also your ships?" Great Magician Grahams said to Roy speechlessly.

"My main purpose for coming back this time is to settle the renovation costs of these magic airships with the Empire merchants!" Roy said, pointing at the magic airships in the fjord...

At this time, the half-elves who were setting up tents on the beach had no idea where they got the news from.

Everyone recognized that the young half-elf in front of them was Boss Roy. They came out of the tent and quickly surrounded Roy.

The emotions of these half-blood elves were almost on the verge of collapse. A ragged half-blood elf said to Roy excitedly:
"Are you Boss Roy? You called on all the half-blood elves in the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom to settle in the Partington plane. We came back from the Chimera plane with great difficulty just to live in the Partington plane."

"But as soon as we arrived at Partington Island by boat, we heard that the portal here was about to close, and we could no longer enter the Partington plane through the portal."

"We gave up everything and came here with so much hardship, but we can't go to the Partington plane. We can only fish on the island beach every day to survive. Boss Roy, can you tell me what I should do next?"

He kept trying to grab Roy's shoulders with his hands, but failed.

The mixed-blood elves around were also very excited. They had no houses on Partington Island and could not buy boat tickets back to Castleton City, so they could only stay on the beach here.

There is a lack of food and clothing here, and we can only live in tents, so life is very hard.

"According to a decree issued by the Council of Senior Elf Elders in the Royal City of Buenos Aires, in order to prevent the Partington Plane War from spreading to the Elven Continent, the portal to Partington Island has been dismantled..."

Roy stood on the beach, looking at the half-blood elves around him and spoke loudly.

It was noon at the moment, and the sun was shining brightly on the beach. Roy felt a little hot under the direct sunlight, but more and more half-blood elves gathered here...

He saw a reef nearby and wanted to walk over and stand on it to talk.

This way, the half-blood elf standing behind him should also be able to hear his voice...

However, more and more half-blood elves were surrounding him, and it was actually quite difficult for him to escape from the crowd. So he took out a large wooden box from his magic waist bag, jumped on top of the box, raised his hands, and shouted to the half-blood elves who were surrounding him:

"Please don't crowd. I will give you an explanation for your being stranded on Partington Island."

"Due to the limited living space on Partington Island, the island is currently fully populated with half-blood elves. So for those of you who want to move to Partington to settle down, I currently have only two plans. The first plan is for you to follow me and take my three-masted sailing ship to a place called Kui Island, where I have built a gathering area suitable for half-blood elves to live in."

"The second plan is that I will arrange a ship to take you back to Castletown Harbor. There is a good natural harbor there, and a lot of labor is needed there every day. As long as you have the ability to work, it is very easy to make a living there. Castletown is a very livable city. If you save enough money in Castletown Harbor, you can also return home along the same route."

"No matter which option you choose, please gather at Partington Island Pier tomorrow morning. My ships are docked at the pier, and I will use them to pick you up."

Roy yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Boss Roy said he would send us to live in Castleton City, and we can also follow him to Kui Island..."

Some half-blood elves were already shouting like crazy below, and some even jumped onto the wooden boxes excitedly, ready to sing with Roy...

The half-blood elves responded to Roy one after another!
Roy shouted, "Don't tell me the answer now. You have two nights to think about it. You can think about it carefully with your family. Unless you want to stay, get on the boat with me and leave Partington Island."

Then, another half-blood elf shouted loudly:

"Boss Roy is leaving now. We can leave Partington Island..."

Only then did Roy have the chance to put away the wooden box at his feet and squeeze out of the chaotic group of mixed-blood elves...

The great magician Grams was standing on the outskirts of the crowd and did not disturb him at this time.

Seeing Roy coming out, the great magician Grams said to Roy:

"I finally figured it out. You really need to come back. The Elf Elder Council just dismantled the portal. They don't care about the lives of these half-blood elves trapped on the island."

"Well, I guess there will be a group of half-blood elves in Castletown Harbor who are unable to return home..."

At this time, the flying fish boat coming from the magic airship finally docked in the shallow water area.

Several half-elf guards strode over, stood in front of Roy and saluted him.

"Take me to the boat!"

Roy gave instructions to the half-elf guards.

Roy and Grahams jumped onto the small wooden boat. After the boat entered the sea, Roy asked the half-elf crew members:

"Has the transformation of the magic airship here been completed?"

"Yes, boss! All the magic airships have been installed with floating devices half a month ago, and conducted low-altitude test flights near Partington Island. All eight magic airships are functioning normally." A half-elf guard stepped forward and took the initiative to speak.

"Have the dwarf craftsmen left?" Roy continued to ask.

"They all live on boats, too..."

Roy nodded, and soon the wooden boat took Roy to a magic airship. Roy climbed onto the ship smoothly using the grid ladder.

The ship has been renovated very carefully, and it can be seen that the floating devices installed on the ship have no wear and tear and are almost brand new.

When the dwarves heard that Boss Roy had arrived, they all ran out of the cabin and asked Roy:

"Captain Roy, when can we dwarf craftsmen leave here?"

"You can leave at any time. We don't restrict your freedom. If you are not in a hurry, you can take the magic airship with me and meet up with Darwin!"

Roy walked around the wide deck, then stood up and said to the dwarf craftsmen:
"I guess you guys don't mind one more night."

……

The next morning, eight magic airships, maneuvered by half-elf crew members, successfully sailed out of the sheltered fjord.

Then it met up with three magic airships docked at the pier.

A large number of half-elves had gathered at the dock. They had already packed their luggage, dragging and hauling large and small bags onto the magic airship.

When a magic airship is fully loaded, it can carry eight hundred half-elves. If even the deck is filled with half-elves, a three-masted sailing ship can transport about a thousand half-elves.

Roy arranged a magic airship to accommodate only 800 people.

Eight magic airships filled with half-blood elves...

Six thousand four hundred half-elves were carried on one trip.

But even so, there are still nearly 10,000 half-elves stranded on Partington Island.

They stood on the dock, anxiously watching the three-masted sailboats leave the harbor one after another. After watching the ships sail away, they dragged their tired bodies back to Partington Island Beach and re-set up the tents that had been folded up.

The beach was already a mess at this time.

“Will they come to pick us up again?” a half-elf child asked quietly, snuggling tightly into your mother’s arms.

Her mother looked at the mast that was almost disappearing on the blue sea and said to her son, "Yes, they will come back to pick us up soon..."

……

Eleven magic airships arrived at Castletown just at nightfall.

At this moment, street lights have been turned on in the streets of Castleton City. The residential areas in the city are clearly separated. The upper city area belongs to the residential area of ​​​​the Silver Moon Elves, and the lower city area where the half-blood elves live is located on the hillside just separated by a wall.

In fact, at night, the lights in the downtown area are brighter than those in the upper city.

Mainly because the people in the lower city live in stone apartments, while the half-elves in the upper city live in tree houses.

It happened to be high tide at that time, and eleven magic airships docked at the shore all at once.

Returning to Castletown Harbor, Roy's mood was obviously different when he saw the brilliant lights of the city...

The entire Castletown dock is filled with the smell of hometown.
