Path of Light.

Chapter 918. Saint Margaret Harbor

The narrow cabin could only accommodate a wooden bunk bed, and a small table and a chair were placed next to the small window.

Leah was lying on the upper bunk. She poked her head out from the upper bunk and said to Alice, who was half lying on the lower bunk and flipping through a sacred prayer book:

"Alice, I heard that there are many believers of the Statue of Liberty in the Green Empire and many temples have been built. Do you want to go to Roland Continent to take a look?"

Alice spread the Holy Prayer Book on her lap, looked up at her mischievous sister, and responded with a smile:
"I heard that Roland Continent is on the other side of the Endless Sea, which is very far away from us."

Leah blinked her eyes, showing a cute expression and said:

"The boss said that once the half-blood elves here have settled down, he will take a ship to the Green Empire. I want to go with him, but I don't want to be separated from you either. Then you can go to Roland Continent with us."

Alice was a little surprised and said doubtfully:
"Me? Wouldn't that be inconvenient?"

When Leah was in the Dark Land, she never had such an expression on her face. From the time she was able to hold the handle of the dagger tightly, she began to go out with the hunting team in the camp to look for prey. From then on, Leah had been providing for her...

Now that I have the ability to live independently, the indifference in Leah's eyes is gradually disappearing...

"You've been following Boss Roy around a lot lately. How do you feel about that?"

Although Alice was very grateful to Roy in the past, she was not very curious about him. However, as Leah continued to change, her black eyes gradually became brighter, and Alice gradually became curious about Roy.

What kind of half-elf is Boss Roy, who is said to be omnipotent by the half-elf?
Alice didn't know much, and the priests of the Knights Templar were also full of gratitude to Boss Roy...

The phrase Alice heard most often in the Knights Templar camp was "I'm grateful to Boss Roy for bringing us here."

Leia blinked again, thinking of how Boss Roy was fighting slave traders everywhere and rescuing slaves of all races.

He not only rescued the elf slaves, he also rescued the Naga slaves and slaves of other races...

Leah thought of the golden Naga mermaid who always wanted to approach her, but was rejected by Roy calmly. She couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, smiled and said:

"It's OK. I can always see something interesting."

Alice was a little worried about Leah's safety. After all, Roy was either dealing with the Dark Faceless Men or the gray dwarves.

In her opinion, the gray dwarves, who have thousands of years of ancient civilization, are more dangerous than the Dark Faceless Men.

"Would it be dangerous?"

"If it's too dangerous, we can live in a seaside town like the other half-blood elves in Sun Island Bay."

Alice has even thought of a way out. She likes the life in the small town of Sun Island very much and looks forward to building a wooden house on the edge of the town and settling down there one day.

At this time, Leah said to Alice:

"Sister, I like this kind of life now. Following the boss, I always feel like I'm walking on the edge of darkness."

Alice heard what Leah hadn't said completely, and then she picked up the sacred prayer book on her lap. She was covered with a thin blanket. She looked at the prayer book and said:
"Got it! If you change your mind one day, come back to me."

"Ah."

Leah agreed and also retracted her head.

Alice looked at the Holy Prayer Book and whispered:

"If you want to go to Roland Continent, I will go with you."

Although Leah did not stick her head out again, she let one arm hang down.

Alice held out her hand.

Holding Leah's hand tightly.

……

Roy leaned against the guardrail of the ship's tower.

Woods was watering the flowers of light in the flowerbed on the roof of the ship. In such a cold environment, the flowers of light in the flowerbed on the roof of the ship did not wither, which surprised Roy...

At this time, just a few hundred meters away from the magic airship fleet, a fiery red cloud suddenly appeared.

In the past, when I saw these clouds, they were almost always in the evening sky.

The golden sun can even set the sea on fire...

But now it is exactly noon, and these red clouds are right under our feet, making it look like a cloud that is on fire.

"what is that?"

Roy couldn't help but ask.

The great magician Grams appeared from the stairs wearing a dark blue magic robe. He habitually held a magic wand in his hand and said to Roy:

"We call them Fiery Birds. They are the masters of this sky. They are a very common fire-attributed magical beast that likes to fly around in groups."

When Roy saw the flamingos below, he couldn't help but worry that if they flew near the magic airship, they might ignite the sails.

Great Magician Grams saw Roy's worry and said, "Don't worry, they usually don't enter the wind layer. They just remain vigilant and hostile to us and won't actively attack us."

"I didn't expect there would be such a large group of demon birds in the sky." Roy couldn't help but complain.

The great magician Grams laughed, shook his head and said:

"What kind of magic bird is this? This second-level magic beast is not even a match for the griffins. Only large birds with a wingspan of more than 20 meters can pose some threat to our magic airship."

"I heard that there are some very dangerous giant eagles in the depths of the Endless Sea. They even feed on killer whales and can fly in the sky for several months or even years..."

At this point, the great magician Grams couldn't help but say:
"It's a pity that the dragon eagles on the Elven Continent disappeared five thousand years ago, otherwise they would be the true overlords of this sky."

Roy asked the great magician Grams:
"Didn't they say that the overlords in the sky are dragons?"

The great magician Grams waved his hand and said:

"The dragons were indeed the overlords of the skies, but they declined long ago."

Then he said:
"Speaking of the decline of the dragon race, it seems to be related to humans."

"The only dragon that maintains a friendly relationship with the elves is the Emerald Dragon. Unfortunately, after the war between all races ended, all dragons returned to their homeland and completely cut off contact with this place. The Dragon God also blocked all the passages leading to Dragon City. I have never seen an Emerald Dragon."

The magic airship was flying much faster in the wind layer than the firebirds, so the firebirds quickly disappeared from Roy's sight.

Roy found that he could always see various flocks of birds above the clouds, which made the voyage more interesting. Not long after, Roy walked out of the flowerbed on the roof of the ship and found another flock of birds in front of him.
The scene was far less spectacular than the previous flock of firebirds, but the flying team was very neatly arranged.

……

Roy pushed the door and walked into the cabin on the second floor. This was the captain's room, so the room seemed very spacious.

Moira was wrapped in a blanket, lying on a chair by the window, looking at the flock of birds in the distance through the glass window.

In the field of vision, apart from the thick clouds like cotton under the feet, there were only a few magic airships running side by side with the Black Pearl.

It is a rare pleasure to see some flocks of birds appear in your field of vision and watch them flying in the clouds from afar.

The magic airship was sailing quickly in the wind layer, and the cold wind blew in through the window gaps, which made the temperature in the cabin not very high. At least Moira had to wrap herself in a blanket to avoid feeling cold.

Sabrina was sorting out her brand new magic rune construct.

She sat on the bedside and placed the magic pattern construct on the small table.

These full-coverage magic armors are still brand new.

In order to avoid severe friction between the armor and the body during combat,
Sabrina would try on all the magic rune construct parts several times before the battle. She found a few places that were not quite right. Although she could not handle the magic rune construct, she could wrap that part of her body with bandages, which would provide some protection for her body.

She was sitting on the bed, wearing only underwear, with bandages wrapped around her left thigh and shoulder, making her towering breasts particularly eye-catching.

Sabrina didn't react when she saw Roy push the door open and walk in.

"Has the Griffin Cavalry Regiment's reconnaissance team detected any sailing ships of the Northern Fleet in recent days?"

Roy asked, sitting across from Sabrina.

He sat down and checked the magic pattern structure on the small table, thinking about how to modify it in the future...

This kind of full-coverage magic armor cannot be tailor-made, so we can only work hard to ensure its versatility.

Sabrina raised her head, raised her hand to put her long golden hair behind her head, and said:

"No, the griffin riders who went to the north for reconnaissance flew straight north for seven days. They couldn't find an island in the sea. The griffins had no place to rest, so they returned to Que Island."

"The scouting team found no islands along the way, and did not see the three-masted sailing ships of the gray dwarf bandits, but did see a lot of Naga mermaids."

The latter sentence is just a weak complaint. After all, the griffin riders are all half-elf young men.

Naga mermaids have a great appeal to them...

Roy only then realized that if the Griffin Cavalry Regiment participated in the naval battle, they would really need a few magic airships to assist them...

"It seems that if we want to cross this endless sea, we still have to rely on these large ships." Roy muttered.

Sabrina then took the breastplate from the small table and put it on.

She turned around in her sitting position on the bed, raised her arms, and turned her body toward Roy, allowing him to help her hook up the row of buckles on the breastplate.

After putting on the breastplate, Sabrina put on the greaves as well, stood in the room and did a few sword-swinging movements, which felt pretty good.

Then, she began to sharpen the two Serruki swords leaning against the bedside with a whetstone...

……

From Castletown Harbour to St. Margaret's Harbour,
With a favorable wind, a medium-sized sailing ship would take about twenty-five days to reach Port Sainte-Marguerite.

But now is the end of the rainy season in Castletown, and the warm wind blowing from the south has not completely stopped. So the journey from Castletown Port to St. Margaret's Port takes about a month.

If you encounter a cold wind blowing from the frozen sea, then the sailboat will be sailing against the wind when heading north, and it may take half a month to reach St. Margaret's Port...

This time, Roy's magic airship fleet took only nine days, and the endless green sea could be seen from high in the sky.

The green sea in the distance is the Evernight Forest of the Darkmoon Elf Kingdom.

It is said that the forest was named the Evernight Forest because the entire forest looked like night under the cover of lush trees.

St. Margaret's Port is located on the west coast of the Evernight Forest, and there is only one port on the west coast of the Darkmoon Elf Kingdom.

From a distance, only a few thin lines can be seen in the green sea...

A fleet of forty magic airships fell from the sky into the sea...

The scene was particularly spectacular.

Soon some night elf sailboats came over.
These Darkmoon Elf sailboats are about the size of a three-masted barque.

But in addition to the three masts, there are six pairs of wings on both sides of the ship. The hull, which is more than 60 meters long, looks like it was carved out of a huge tree. The hull is painted with some emerald green and even has some dragon scale patterns painted on it. The sailboats are decorated like sea monsters.

Roy made a quick count and found that there were six Dark Moon Elf ships approaching the fleet.

These Dark Moon Elves' warships were directly across the front of the fleet, using their hulls to block the path of the magic airships.

All the magic airships in the sea stopped. Roy checked the sea chart on the ship. It was only a few dozen miles away from the island where he would meet Zeena and the others.
The Black Pearl, which Roy was on, moved forward and docked with a sailboat of the Silver Moon Elf.

Then Roy and Woods boarded each other's sailboat.

There were many Dark Moon Elves standing on the deck of the other ship. After Roy boarded the ship, he said to them directly:
"We are from Castletown Port in the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom. We came here to track down a group of elf slave traders and have no intention of staying in your sea area. We will go to the Mensa Strait in the near future, but before leaving, we want to make a final replenishment at St. Margaret's Port."

A Dark Moon Elf captain who looked like a superior stood up. He looked at Roy seriously, probably because he felt that his human face was not suitable for speaking for the elves.

"It is impossible to allow so many of your ships to enter the port."

His first sentence was so straightforward. The Dark Moon Elf said:

"You can only have five sailing vessels enter the port, or your vessels can rotate into the port, with the number of vessels entering the port limited to five at a time."

Roy did not raise any objection. When talking to these officers, the simpler the better.

"Have there been any imperial merchant ships docked at St. Margaret's Port in recent months?" Roy asked the Dark Moon Elf captain.

The Dark Moon Elf Captain stood up straight and said directly:
"Of course, this is the northernmost port on the west coast of the Elf Continent. All imperial merchant ships heading to the Elf World must first dock at Saint Margaret's Port."

Roy did not continue to ask him for information and said:

"Then we will apply for entry permits for five magic airships to enter the port terminal..."
