The Mountain Road between Wochak Mountain Ridge is rugged, and the four Iron Mine originally belonged to the same mineral vein, but this vein existed intermittently in Wochak Mountain Ridge, so four Iron Mine were built in this mountain range.

Mine Owner Jerome's Iron Mine is the shabbiest among the four Iron Mines.

In the bleak cold wind, grains of ice and snow were mixed in, and when they blew on Half-Elf Warrior's face armor, a thin layer of ice would form on their hard face armor.

Mine Owner Jerome's carriage drove into Fourth Iron Mine, followed by two hundred Half-Elf Warrior and a hundred headhunter prisoners of war. This time he came to Fourth Iron Mine to restore the mine to normal operation.

The elf miners regained their freedom, resulting in a shortage of miners in the mines, so Roy took out the headhunter prisoners captured recently to replenish the number...

Mine Owner Jerome knew very well in his heart that once he became the manager of four Iron Mines, even if he boarded the warship Roy and completely broke with the headhunters of Northern Plateau, if those headhunters came back again in the future, Mine Owners like him would be the first to be dealt with.

This group of headhunter prisoners of war are all young. They were caught by the Elf Warriors when they fled north. Now they are chained together one by one, and they are mentally exhausted.

Mine Owner Jerome brought these headhunters to Fourth Iron Mine, and then began to arrange the work in the mine, not wanting to delay for a moment...

Roy led the five thousand Elf Warrior of the Mine Guard team to Pagisto Plateau's eastern mountainous area with the most complex terrain.

Griffon Corps All Griffon Cavalry were dispatched. They circled back and forth in the sky of the Nikoba Mountain Range, carefully searching for the mines and headhunter communities hidden in the mountains. Of course, not all headhunter communities would be noticed by them.

Griffon Cavalrys will only pay attention to those Headhunters Tribes around the mines.

Some of these mines were occupied by the Silver Pegasus Legion more than three months ago. However, as Silver Pegasus Legion withdrew and the headhunters returned, they took back these mines.

After several battles, except for Mine Owners, there were only a few miners left in these mines.

The news that the Mine Guard team was heading towards the Nikoba Mountain Range was soon heard by Mine Owners in the Nikoba Mountain Range. These Mine Owners heard that even Mithril Mine Owner Abel in Wochak Mountain was killed by this group of Half-Elf Warrior, and they were so frightened that they fled from the mine overnight with their belongings.

In order to slow down Team Mine Guard and avoid being killed by Team Mine Guard's Elf Warrior on the way, these Mine Ownerss not only kept the Half-Elf miners, but also allowed them to be recruited by Team Mine Guard in the mine.

After the Mine Guard team entered Nikoba Mountain Range, they occupied all the mines with almost no effort. However, before leaving, these Mine Ownerss destroyed almost all the mines. The furnaces in the mines were also smashed into scrap copper and scrap iron. These Mine Ownerss did not leave anything of value to Roy.

Only a group of Half-Elf miners were left who were about to starve to death. As for the Gray Dwarf miners in the mine, these Mine Owners also released them before leaving.

Now these Gray Dwarf have penetrated into the mountains around the mine, and many headhunters have also fled into the mountains.

The process of taking over the mines was very smooth, because these Mine Owners had completely destroyed the mines before leaving, so Roy did not think about returning these mines to normal operation immediately. He just took over the Half-Elf miners, and temporarily abandoned the abandoned mines.

Roy brought back nearly three thousand Half-Elf miners from the east Nikoba Mountain Range and temporarily settled them in three castles of the Gaxi Mountain Range Black Iron Mine.

Half-Elf If you want to stay in the mine to mine, or you can get a travel bag and leave Gaxi Mountain Range, you can choose at will.

It took Roy nearly more than a month just to bring these three thousand Half-Elf miners out of the Nikoba Mountain Range.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of December of 1407.

The war on Pagisto Plateau has almost completely subsided, and the headhunters are now struggling hard on Gazan Ancestral Land, suppressed by Commander Helik.

It is difficult to see groups of headhunters on the plateau anymore.

Roy temporarily lives in Aidasi Mountain Black Iron Mine Castle. Sabrina, Moira, Woods, and Miss Tiffany are also in the castle here.

As the Mine Guard team grows, there is no need for Sabrina to train those Half-Elf Warrior, nor is there any need for Woods to lead Half-Elf Warrior to guard City Wall. Even Moira has not acted with Assassin Squad for a long time.

After they followed Roy around the Nikoba Mountain Range, they returned to North Black Iron Mine Castle to stay for a few days.

Due to being away from the sea for a long time, Miss Tiffany has developed some minor symptoms on his skin in the past few days. When he turned into an elf, he had some red rashes on his body. Even if he soaked in the bathtub, the symptoms could not be relieved.

Roy knows that she has been away from the sea for too long...

These days, many Half-Elf miners are always coming in and out of Roy's office. These Half-Elf miners come from various Nikoba Mountain Range mines.

The reason why Roy came to them was also very simple, just to ask them to describe the appearance of those Nikoba Mountain Range who were absconding Mine Owners.

The most chaotic area at present is Nikoba Mountain Range in the eastern part of the plateau. Not only are Warcraft roaming around in this mountain, there are also some headhunters and Gray Dwarf Bandit lurking in it. Several other mines are also abandoned. Roy may need to spend a lot of time, manpower and material resources to get these mines up and running again.

The reason is that these Mine Ownerss are causing trouble. They fled the mine when they heard the news and turned the mine into a mess.

And these Mine Owners sneaked away with a fortune.

In the past few days, Roy has been thinking about where they will go...

In fact, the answer is simple: whether they want to stay in Pattington Plane or sneak back to the Elf Continent, they have to go to Padesto City.

So Roy has been busy dealing with all kinds of things on Pagisto Plateau these two days, and then brings these portraits of Mine Owners back to Padesto City to block them...

The fire in the room was very bright, and the bathtub turned into a large bath. Even the water in the bath was warm. In order to cater to Miss Tiffany, Roy even sprinkled some salt in the bath.

At this time, Miss Tiffany was still lying in the bathtub sickly, and the huge Tri-Color Fish Tail had lost its former luster.

Others were gathered at the edge of the bath, discussing their return date.

It has been more than half a year since everyone left Castleton City, and we must go back this time no matter what.

A gust of cold wind blew in, blowing the flames in the brazier at the door loudly.

Woods looked at Roy with wide eyes, and asked in surprise, "You mean you want to go to Padesto City?"

Roy nodded and said, "Yes, I guess those Mine Ownerss from the Nikoba Mountain Range in the eastern part of the plateau should all have secretly escaped back to Padesto City at this time. I plan to catch them all back this time."

Then Roy changed his voice and said:

"You guys will also follow me back to Padesto City. This semester is about to end, and the January holiday is coming. You have to return to Castleton to complete your studies and wait for the start of school."

Woods hesitated for a moment, and seeing that both Sabrina and Moira refused to speak, he asked:

"But what about Pagisto Plateau?"

Roy spread his hands and said calmly:

"At present, the Mine Guard team has controlled most of this Pagisto Plateau area. Commander Helik helped me suppress the headhunters in Gazan Ancestral Land. In the next period of time, except for Gazan Ancestral Land, the entire Pagisto Plateau needs to recuperate. It is estimated that there will be no war."

Seeing that Woods wanted to refute, he quickly said, "I will hire some professional managers to run these mines."

He patted Woods on the shoulder and said, "Take care of Black Pearl for me. If that tree wants to survive, you need to take good care of it."

Woods nodded. He knew that Roy was talking about the main mast on Black Pearl.

Woods took great pains to revive it, but now it also needs Woods to take care of it.

Roy looked at Sabrina again and said:

"Sabrina, you also need to help me run the Trading Company of Castleton City. It is estimated that there will be a large number of Magic Herbs, for a long time. Magic Metal ingots, magic gems, and Warcraft materials are constantly being shipped from Pattington Plane. I need you to help me keep an eye on these materials, and also help me exchange them for various materials that Pattington Plane needs before I want to ship them back."

"You can let Klayr handle the things that can't be solved. I want to turn these resources into real wealth and use them to build Pattington Plane. This will become the home of Half-Elf. I hope you can help me do this together."

"No problem, I promise you." Sabrina said simply.

Roy breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Miss Tiffany.

Miss Tiffany popped his head out of the pool, put his hands on the edge of the bath, pointed at Moira and said to Roy:

"Don't look at me like that. The person you need to convince is over there."

Roy turned to look at Moira and comforted her, "The battle here is coming to an end. You can't learn anything new if you stay here. Besides, this semester is over. You guys will set off from the plateau and return to Castleton City at this time, just in time for the start of the Elf Academy's new semester. You still need to go to school at the Elf Academy."

Moira raised his head, his big eyes flashed with reluctance, and he pouted and muttered:

"I want to stay with you."

Roy quickly touched her head, which made Moira's little face blush slightly, and even her neck was dyed a light pink.

Roy said, "While you are young, you should learn more new knowledge. After I finish handling the things on Pattington Plane, I will return to Castleton City. I have never thought about living on Pagisto Plateau forever. By then, we can go to school together every day..."

Moira only felt that Roy was right, so he agreed in a daze.

Before leaving, Roy made some arrangements for the mine, and then took a gryphon from North Black Iron Mine to fly directly to Padesto City.

This time, in addition to Kaka and Little Eugene, another Griffon Cavalry also came to help.

At present, the number of Griffon Cavalry coming from Sun Island Bay has increased to two hundred and seventy-three.

In fact, not only Griffon Corps continues to grow, but Assassin Squad has also expanded to 500 people, and Half-Elf Warrior of team Mine Guard has expanded to 8,000 people.

Roy needs to manage fourteen mines. There are also three mines of the Kaltim Mountain Range and four mines of the Nikoba Mountain Range that are closed. The total number of miners in these mines is nearly 10,000.

At present, almost all the Magic Crystal Stone collected from various mines have been used up, and the batch of gems that Klayr took away has also been spent in Castleton City.

Roy needs to bring another batch of Magic Metal to Padesto City in exchange for a sum of Magic Crystal Stone to keep these mines running.

Establishing a sales channel for Magic Metal in Padesto City is something Leishande cannot do. Roy needs to come forward in person...

From Aidasi Mountain North Black Iron Mine to Padesto City, the griffins can fly there in just three days.

However, Roy did not let Kaka and Griffon Cavalry get too close to Padesto City. Seeing the blurry shadow of Padesto City in the distance, Roy asked Kaka and Little Eugene to put down their group.

It's not too far away from Padesto City, and Roy and the others need to find a way to walk the rest of the way.

Kaka will wait for Roy at Rampart Town, and the other Griffon Cavalry will follow Little Eugene and return to Pagisto Plateau immediately.

Roy and Kaka said goodbye, and then led the team towards the square of Padesto City.

After walking off Pagisto Plateau, the climate suddenly changed dramatically. Padesto City is like spring all year round, surrounded by acres of dense jungle, and the air here has also become very humid.

I don't know whether it was due to mood or climate. Miss Tiffany's symptoms improved when the Roy team arrived at the outer suburbs of Padesto City.

In the jungle, we have seen pieces of Apple Orchard managed by Half-Elfs.

The Half-Elfs here are also very hospitable. When they saw the Roy team passing by the orchard, they took the initiative to invite them to eat apples.

In addition to eating fresh apples, the Roy team also boarded an apple carriage and headed slowly along the forest path to Padesto City.

The Half-Elf coachman was also very talkative. Hearing that Roy and the others were a Adventure Group, he asked them if they were coming back from the Pagisto Plateau.

Roy specifically said that they came back from Blackwater Swamp.

The coachman then chattered. "You should actually go to Pagisto Plateau to have a look. I heard that there are many Half-Elfs living there, and the Half-Elfs there are currently fighting with the plateau natives. I heard that someone led a group of Half-Elf Warriors and saved many slaves..."
