On the way to Padesto City, Roy did not return to the original Magic Airship.

He remained on the Magic Airship carrying the Dark Moon Elf Warrior, and all seven hundred and twenty Dark Moon Elf Warrior were gathered on the airship's deck by Captain Timothy.

The sheer number of Dark Moon Elf made the deck feel incredibly crowded...

The Magic Airship continued to ascend, and the surrounding temperature dropped lower and lower...

Seven hundred and twenty Dark Moon Elf Warrior looked up at the Ship Building. Roy stood on the Lookout Platform at the top of the Ship Building, his hands gripping the railing.

The biting wind turned his face red...

As the Magic Airship gradually stabilized, Roy touched his slightly dry throat. He had been speaking loudly lately, and his throat had become a little hoarse.

Roy looked at the Dark Moon Elf Warrior on the deck and said to everyone:

"When you become members of the Assassin Squad, it actually means that you have regained your freedom."

After these words were spoken, the Dark Moon Elf Warrior Dark Moon Elf Warrior on the deck exchanged bewildered glances, many wondering what Boss Roy meant by those words...

Some Dark Moon Elf Warrior looked at their leader Timothy, and found that Captain Timothy also looked bewildered.

Roy continued, "This time, our Mine Guard Regiment will head to Ram Horn Fjord near Murayaki Port. Ram Horn Fjord is located on the northern part of the West Coast of Elf Continent and is the outlet to the sea for Murayaki Port."

He paused for a moment.

Every time he spoke, a cold wind would violently blow into his mouth, so Roy had to pause after each sentence.

Roy continued, "I reckon even without a map, everyone should know where Murayaki Port is! That's right, if you take a boat from Murayaki Port and continue north, it will only take about two days to reach St. Margaret Port on the west coast of the Eternal Night Forest in the Darkmoon Elf Kingdom."

The Dark Moon Elves sitting on the deck gasped in surprise.

Roy smiled and said to the Dark Moon Elf Warrior, "If you want to go home, you can leave the Assassin Squad at any time. Of course, I hope that even if you are planning to leave the Guild, you can defeat those Gray Dwarf Bandit in Ram Horn Fjord before you go."

A group of Dark Moon Elf Warrior kept glancing at Captain Timothy...

Captain Timothy had no choice but to stand up and ask Roy, "Boss Roy, are you planning to disband the Assassin Squad?"

Roy laughed and said loudly, "No, the Assassin Squad will not disband. I'm just saying this so that if anyone misses home, remember to collect your military pay before leaving. You are free. Just submit a resignation letter to Captain Timothy before you leave."

A group of Dark Moon Elf immediately started chattering, "We never said we were leaving. In fact, life in the Assassin Squad seems more meaningful than ever before..."

"We want to stay too..."

Roy stood on the Ship Building and gestured for everyone to quiet down.

Then he addressed the Dark Moon Elf Warrior on the ship:

"Alright, alright, I'm not trying to kick you out. I'd much rather you stayed with the Mine Guard Regiment. But I need to remind you that you are free Dark Moon Elf and can leave the Assassin Squad at any time. Remember to take your military funds with you when you leave!"

"Every time you carry out a mission, your regimental commander will record some of your achievements. These achievements, once accumulated, amount to a considerable amount of military funds."

After saying this, Roy did not linger on the Ship Building.

Captain Timothy also organized the Dark Moon Elf Warrior to return to the cabins below deck in an orderly manner.

"Isn't it a little strange... why would I say these things?"

Roy sat on the sofa in the captain's cabin and asked Captain Timothy, who followed him in from behind.

"Um!"

Captain Timothy was indeed filled with doubt.

Roy spread out a map on the coffee table in the lounge area, pointed to the circle drawn with a red line, and said:

"Murayaki Port is very close to St. Margaret Port. If the soldiers want to go home, let them go. Because the upcoming missions might not be so free, and I can't refuse them!"

He didn't ask what Captain Timothy's next mission was, but simply glanced at Gorfito silently.

Since he had already gone to Goat Horn Bay, Roy really wanted to visit Gorfito, since it had once been the headquarters of the Goddess of Freedom Temple on the Elf Continent, and there was also a gate there leading to the Dark Land.

High Priest Reed is now in the world inside that door...

On the third day at dusk, the six Magic Airship arrived at the Padesto City Air Port Dock as scheduled.

The Half-Elf Warrior clad in silver armor attracted the attention of many Half-Elf.

As these Magic Airship filed into the Air Port Dock one after another, the entire Padesto City was in an uproar.

Bernal Shazoo, hiding in Apple Orchard in the suburbs, looked at the Magic Airship floating in the sky and broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, they had been behaving themselves recently. If they had caused trouble in Padesto City, they might have been suppressed by the Elf Warrior on these Magic Airship in the sky.

The Magic Airship Magic Airship came to a stop in front of the Tower Station, and Miss Christine stepped off.

Roy's Magic Airship was still behind, so he didn't disembark with her.

Earl Swynborne was already waiting at the Air Port Dock. Seeing his daughter Christine disembark from the Magic Airship, he called her over and asked gently:

"How was your trip aboard the Magic Airship?"

Miss Christine answered very objectively:

"It feels very novel. Although it is not as agile as the Silver Pegasus, it can transport a large number of infantry battalions."

Earl Swynborne chuckled self-deprecatingly, "The Silver Moon Elf' refusal to accept Magic Airship, a product of Hex Magic Technology, stems from their unwillingness to acknowledge the talent of the goblin inventors of that era. Now, thanks to the continuous modifications by dwarven engineers, the blueprints for magic Magic Airship have become highly advanced, and these large Magic Airship are very convenient to use. Yet, some fellows just simply cannot accept it..."

As they spoke, Earl Swynborne, standing on the Tower Station, noticed the Half-Elf Warrior on the Magic Airship, almost all of them clad in identical silver armor, and remarked with some surprise:

"It seems Roy is really rich; he actually equipped these Half-Elf Warrior with high-quality Magic Armor!"

"Ahem..." Miss Christine coughed twice before saying to Earl Swynborne, "I saw those headhunter prisoners of war."

"What prisoners of war...you mean those Highland Slavers?" Earl Swynborne suddenly remembered.

Miss Christine nodded and muttered to herself:

"Yes, he built a Concentration Camp in the Plateau City, Concentration Camp held a lot of prisoners of war."

Now the Earl Swynborne understood the unspoken meaning in his daughter's words.

"Are you worried that... if I transfer his Mine Guard Regiment to the battlefield on the Elf Continent, it will leave the defenses of the Plateau City vulnerable?"

"..."

Miss Christine blinked but didn't say anything.

Earl Swynborne laughed heartily and said to Miss Christine:

"Don't worry, Roy's influence in the Pattington Plane is much greater than we estimated. If he wants to recruit Half-Elf Warrior, he can do so very easily."

Not long after, Roy's Magic Airship arrived at Padesto's Air Port Dock.

Earl Swynborne met with the six Half-Elf captains who were in charge of piloting the Magic Airship on the platform at the Air Port Dock dock, and then hurriedly left.

Roy had already inquired and learned that the Teleportation Portal in the Central Square wouldn't open until after dark, which would determine the order of entry from Padesto City to Pattington Island...

Langbo brought Roy twenty boxes of Magic Crystal Stone.

These Magic Crystal Stone are the source of Magic Power for the Floating Device the Magic Airship. The Magic Airship will fly directly from Padesto City to Ram Horn Fjord, and it is unknown how many Magic Crystal Stone it will burn along the way.

Furthermore, once they enter Ram Horn Fjord, it doesn't mean that these Magic Airship have to anchor on the sea.

These Magic Airship were intended to participate in this naval battle according to Roy's battle plan.

The advantage of the Magic Airship is, of course, that it floats in mid-air and launches downwards. For this reason, Roy also prepared a batch of enchanted Elf Longbow for the Half-Elf Warrior.

The arrows used by the Half-Elf Warrior were also high-grade ' Armor-Piercing Arrow ' that Roy bought from the Castleton City military supply depot.

Once everything was ready, the Magic Airship lined up and flew towards the Central Square.

This low-altitude flight created a rather impressive scene in the air above the Central Square...

The Magic Airship filed through the Teleportation Portal in the Central Square and appeared inside the mountain of Pattington Island. This time, the Magic Airship activated their Propulsion Device and, driven by the magic devices, emerged from the Pattington Island through the narrow mountain crevice.

These Magic Airship first arrived at the Sheltered Fjord.

Three modified Magic Airship are still moored on the surface of the Sheltered Fjord.

Roy organized the nine Magic Airship into a squadron, with six hundred Elf Warrior on each Magic Airship, so that the Elf Warrior could have a slightly more comfortable living environment.
