Path of Light.

Chapter 793 794. The Half-Blood Elf of Castletown
This time Roy brought over three ships of magic herbs.

In the cover of night, boxes of magic herbs were unloaded from the ship and carried by half-elf porters to the dock next to the Imperial merchant ship. These magic herbs were afraid of wind and rain, so after being unloaded from the ship, they had to be immediately loaded into the cargo hold of the Imperial merchant ship.

The three magic airships were almost filled with magic herbs. The imperial merchant ship was a five-masted ship, more than ninety meters long, and the crew rest cabin was reduced to the maximum extent. The entire ship's deck was filled with cargo holds.

An imperial merchant ship actually ate up all the magic herbs on three magic airships.

By the time all the boxes of magic herbs were moved onto the imperial merchant ship, it was already dawn at the dock.

Darwin, the Empire merchant, yawned and looked at the last few dozen boxes of magic herbs on the deck of the Empire merchant ship, which could not be loaded into the cargo hold below the deck. He smiled bitterly at Roy and said:
"Boss Roy, if the magic herbs you brought here are calculated based on the new market price, I will probably have to give back half of the black magic crystals you paid me last night..."

Roy stood on the dock and waved to Darwin, the imperial merchant next to him:
"I don't want black magic crystals. They are so expensive that my magic airships can't afford them. You can use ordinary magic crystals with other properties to pay the fee."

"I know you need ordinary magic crystals. We don't have much other things in the Green Empire, but we have a lot of ordinary magic crystals. All the great lords and dukes have the habit of hoarding magic crystals. In our Green Empire, all transactions of magic pattern constructions require magic crystals, so everyone will hoard magic crystals..."

As the imperial merchant Darwin spoke, he called on the crew on the ship to carry out the boxes filled with magic crystals.

After handing over fifteen boxes of colorful magic crystals to Roy, the two of them completed the transaction.

After each transaction was completed, the imperial businessman Darwin was accustomed to opening a bottle of champagne, and everyone raised their glasses at the same time on the dock.

At this time, some half-blood elves who had received the news first began to gather at the dock. These half-blood elves were waiting to board the magic airship and follow Roy to the group of elves on Que Island...

Captain Rodhart had just gotten up from the bed when Roy called him to the dock to start registering the half-blood elves waiting at the dock...

Roy said goodbye to the imperial merchant Darwin, and then gave him a special instruction:
"From now on, the magic herb trade will be conducted on Kuei Island. It will no longer be shipped to Castletown Port. Your merchant ship must go to Kuei Island as soon as possible. Don't make me wait too long."

Darwin waved his hand at Roy and made a promise:

"When your fleet returns to Kui Island, you will see my merchant ship also moored at the dock of Kui Island..."

"Then I'm looking forward to our next meeting!"

After Roy finished speaking, he hugged Darwin again before saying goodbye and leaving.

……

A fleet of magic airships was docked at the port of Castletown. The news that this fleet was aggressively recruiting half-elves at the port quickly spread throughout the city of Castletown.

After returning home, Roy simply took a shower, changed his clothes, and took a carriage to the upper city.

Lady Belinda was not at home and there was no letter in the mailbox.

Roy did not go to the magic herb trading company or the alchemy workshop, but went directly to Claire's house.

He handed a business card given to him by Claire to the Silver Moon Elf guard at the door, and the guard quickly passed the card in.

Not long after, Claire ran out of the house in her pajamas and barefoot.

The Silver Moon Elf guard opened the door, and Claire rushed out, hugged Roy, and said happily:

"I heard that the portal to Partington Island was demolished. I thought I would never see you again in this life."

"I wrote a letter to the Buenos Aires Council of Elders to protest, but they told me to wake up. I was so angry that I don't even want to attend this year's Buenos Aires concert!"

"I'm back! Nice to see you, my dear friend!"

Roy responded with a smile.

When he saw Claire, Roy once again recalled the good times in the Elf Academy. At that time, he and Claire fought together in the academy and they were not afraid of anyone.

Claire brought Roy to a living room in the house. When they were the only two left in the room, Claire asked Roy:

"I heard them say that you chose to stay in the Partington plane, but now you are in Castletown. What's going on? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Claire couldn't wait to know how Roy was doing.

"Anyway, a lot of things have happened recently. Although I am in the Elf Continent now, I have a way to return to the Partington plane, so I appear in front of you at this time!" Roy explained to Claire.

"You successfully bribed the space magicians of the Astrologers' Guild, right?"

Claire suddenly thought of the key to the matter.

"I don't have the ability to bribe them, so a great magician helps me." Roy said in a low voice.

Claire's eyes lit up, and she pumped her fist excitedly and said, "That's great."

"This news has to be kept secret now, and I haven't settled down completely yet, so I plan to shut down the magic herb trading company here. If you want to take over, I can hand it over to you. In addition, the alchemy workshop will also be closed. Woods will return to the Partington plane with me. If you want to take over, I can hand it over to you together..."

"It's just that I won't be able to provide you with magic herbs for a long time in the future. I won't transport magic herbs to the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom... not even a single one."

Roy said, leaning back in his chair.

After he said this, he felt a little thirsty, so he picked up the lemon tea and took a big sip.

"Leave it to me. I will make sure the magic herb trading company and the alchemy workshop can operate normally."

Claire took over the trading company and alchemy workshop without hesitation.

"What should we do with all the magical metals in the Partington plane?"

Ever since Roy became the owner of the mine, Claire has been helping Roy sell the metal resources on the Partington plane. He knows very well how much metal production there is on the Pagisto Plateau...

"I will sell the magic metals to the imperial merchants first. As for the ordinary metals, I plan to use them to complete some infrastructure construction in the Partington plane."

Roy told his plan.

"Let's go. There's nothing to hand over at the Magic Herb Trading Company. Let's go to the Alchemy Workshop. I haven't seen Woods since I came back this time!" Roy said to Claire.

"Then wait for me for a while. I'll wash up and change my clothes."

After Claire finished speaking to Roy, she hurried away.

As Claire walked out of the room, two Silver Moon Elf maids came in with trays of food.

The cup contained diluted life-tree sap, and on the tray were terocarps. Although Roy was not very interested in these foods, they were the standard breakfast for the Silver Moon Elf nobles.

Roy reached out and pinched the sore corners of his eyes, then took a sip of the sap of the tree of life.

This thing seemed to have no effect on him. He hadn't slept all night and felt a little tired, so he took out a spirit potion from his magic waist bag.

He bit off the cork with his teeth, drank the whole drink in one gulp, and then leaned back in his chair and stared blankly.

When Claire came back after changing her clothes, Roy was sitting on a chair with his head resting on the back of the chair, and he was actually fast asleep...

It was not known whether it was the sound of Claire opening the door or his footsteps that woke Roy up.

Roy suddenly woke up, sat up straight, rubbed his sore eyes, stood up and said to Claire, "Let's go!"

Claire followed behind Roy and nagged at him, "Roy, why do you push yourself so hard? What you are doing now is something that no half-blood elf can do!"

"Remember what we heard on our first day at Elf Academy?"

Roy stopped and asked Claire.

Claire thought about it carefully, not knowing what Roy wanted to say.

"Brave love!"

Roy said something, and Claire suddenly remembered it and said:

"Seek freedom!"

"Yes, now I am pursuing the freedom that belongs to half-elves and half-elves!"

The two left Claire's house and took Claire's special carriage to the alchemy workshop.

Roy's alchemy workshop is located in the magic district of Castletown City. This workshop is the largest magic workshop in the magic district.

The existence of this workshop has raised the ranking of Castletown's alchemy industry by more than ninety places. Currently, Castletown's alchemy industry can easily rank among the top ten in the Silvermoon Elf Kingdom. Its main feature is low price and large quantity. It is almost the largest wholesale market for low-level magic potions.

Not only do the merchants from the Empire buy these low-level magic potions here, many magicians from the Silver Moon Kingdom also go to Castletown City to purchase them in bulk.

In fact, refining low-level magic potions is not more profitable than directly trading magic herbs, but opening an alchemy workshop and refining low-level magic potions can train more magic pharmacist apprentices, which is something the Magic Guild would welcome.

Roy and Claire got off the car at the same time and walked into the alchemy laboratory at the back of the workshop. They just happened to see Woods wearing a colorful magic robe and leading a group of magicians lying on the test bench, staring at the crucible on the test bench and constantly taking magic notes...

A druid mingled with a group of magic pharmacists, actively discussing the recipes of magic potions. This scene was quite funny.

"Woods!"

Roy shouted instead of waiting quietly for the experiment to be completed.

In fact, he did not plan to stay in Castletown Port for too long. Once the Buenos Aires Council of Elders received the news, they might detain his fleet at the dock, which would be the worst.

Woods suddenly raised his head and saw Roy and Claire standing together. At first he thought it was an illusion. He threw off one of his leather gloves angrily and rubbed his eyes hard. At this time, his face looked a little beastly, obviously he had performed a partial transformation.

Only after he was sure that Roy really appeared in the alchemy workshop did Woods put down the magic notes in his hand, threw away those magic potion apprentices, and came to Roy.

The two men bumped fists.

"Roy, why are you here?"

Woods was also very excited at this moment.

He knew how dangerous it would be for Roy to appear in Castletown...

"I'm here to pick you up. We're going to abandon this place. Woods, will you come with me?"

Roy asked Woods, who smelled strongly of herbs.

"Let's go. I knew you wouldn't just leave me alone..."

After Woods finished speaking, he tore off his colorful alchemy robe, and then asked Roy reluctantly:
"What should we do here?"

"Leave this place to Claire to manage. From now on, the trading company and alchemy workshop here belong to Claire."

Because there were many magic pharmacists standing around, Roy did not tell Woods any news about the Partington plane.

It can be seen how reluctant Woods is.

Although he is a druid, he has been specializing in herbal medicine in recent years and is also very interested in magical alchemy. This alchemy workshop has always been managed by him.

But Roy didn't give Woods much time to think. He put his arm around Woods' shoulder and walked out.

"Is there anything else we need to take?" Roy asked Woods.

"Do the magic potions in the warehouse count?" Woods blinked and stared at Roy.

"Leave it all to Claire, let's go to the dock!"

After Roy walked out of the alchemy workshop, he boarded Claire's private carriage.

The carriage galloped all the way to Castletown Harbor, where the deepwater docks were in chaos.

Captain Rodhart stood on the sampan that stretched out from the magic airship, stopping the half-blood elves who wanted to board the ship by force, and shouted loudly:

"There is no room on the ship. Even if you come on board, we can't take you with us."

Roy, Woods and Claire squeezed in from the crowd, and Roy asked Captain Rodhart:
"What's going on? Why did you make such a mess here?"

Captain Rodhart saw Roy and immediately pulled him onto the sampan, complaining to him:

"Boss, you asked me to register those compatriots who were about to leave Castletown Port. Now, many compatriots want to leave after hearing the news, but our ship is already full..."

"Are all the boats full?"

Roy didn't expect that the half-blood elves in Castletown City were even crazier than those on Partington Island.

He originally thought that it would be easier to find a job in Castletown Harbor, and that there might be a large number of half-blood elves who would not want to leave...

Rodhart nodded.

Roy thought for a moment, then turned around and shouted to the group of half-blood elves on the dock:
"Everyone, please don't push, please calm down, I'm Roy, now please listen to me!"

The surrounding half-blood elves really quieted down, and the sound waves died down little by little, spreading rapidly from inside to outside...

It was a strange feeling, as if a magician had cast a 'mass silencing spell'.

Roy put his hand to his mouth and made it into a trumpet shape: "You all want to leave with me, right?"

"Yes!"

The sound waves suddenly surged and spread throughout the entire Castletown Harbor.

Completely suppress other sounds at the port dock.

"Okay, then I'll take you away. I'll find a way now. Even if I have to rent a medium-sized sailboat, I'll take you all away!"
