First Battle

About ten nautical miles east of the exit of Ram Horn Fjord, there is an L-shaped island.

This island is like a mountain rising from the deep sea. There are no shallows or island groups around the island. Almost all of the island is surrounded by cliffs that are hundreds of meters high. There are a lot of white-headed bird nests on these cliffs. At the top of the hundred-meter-high cliff is a flat mountain peak shaped like a knife blade.

Although there are no trees on the mountain, it is covered with a thick layer of Needle Fescue. In some rock crevices, a kind of short shrub grows, which produces red berries the size of a little fingernail. These red berries taste sour and astringent, and are slightly poisonous. If you eat too many, your mouth will become numb and your mouth will keep drooling.

But these small red berries are one of the white-headed birds' favorite foods.

The diet of the white-headed bird is quite varied. They can eat the seeds of Needle Fescue, and they also like to eat capelin from the sea, but they prefer the kernels of the red berries on the island.

The Silver Moon Elf Knight Second Silver Pegasus Knight Regiment held their ground on the gentle slope of the mountain on the north side of the island. Since it was impossible to set up tents there, the Silver Moon Elf Knight dragged their tired bodies into Sleeping Bag fixed to the grass. They had half a day to rest properly.

The timely arrival of the Fifth and Sixth Silver Pegasus Knight Order greatly calmed their bad mood.

The Silver Pegasus were also grazing on the Needle Fescue on the grassy hillside.

Nearly three thousand Silvermoon Elven Guard guarded the island's hundred-meter-high cliffs, constantly monitoring the Gray Dwarf Bandit fleet at sea...

The waves crashed against the cliffs below, and a large number of broken medium-sized sailing ships were piled up on the beach. At least half of the medium-sized sailing ships were reduced to ashes in the fire. The charred remains of the medium-sized sailing ships were scattered into pieces of blackened planks, floating on the sea near the edge of the island.

Giant waves slammed the charred wood against the sea rocks, and some of the planks that were tied together were quickly broken apart.

When the Silver Moon Elf Guard Regiment and the logistics Transport Team were attacked by the Gray Dwarf Bandit fleet, it was just before dawn. At that time, the Silver Moon Elf hurriedly retreated to this towering island. It was the Silver Pegasus Knights who flew to the top of the cliff first and lowered Rope Ladder, allowing the Silvermoon Elven Guard to abandon ship and climb up the rope ladders to the island, which was hundreds of meters high.

The supply Transport Team carried a large amount of military equipment, but the supplies they brought to the island amounted to less than a third of the total supplies.

All the medium-sized sailboats were abandoned on the steep, rocky beaches surrounding the island...

However, the warriors of the Silver Moon Elf Guard Regiment abandoned ship and went ashore immediately, and all of them survived.

Gray Dwarf Bandit appeared in Ram Horn Fjord and intercepted the fleet of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion on Aio Island. In fact, the Silvermoon Elven Nobles in Ram Horn Fjord received the news immediately...

However, the local army here has long been rendered ineffective.

The young Silver Moon Elf joined the army simply because they thought the uniforms looked cool; the Ram Horn Fjord Security Guard Regiment hadn't even had a proper training session in a long time.

They might be willing to ride horses as a ceremonial guard, but these Silver Moon Elf lacked the courage to sail out to sea and fight against the Gray Dwarf Bandit.

After the three major elven races —Dark Moon Elf, Silver Moon Elf, and Wood Elf— split apart, the Elf Continent was divided into three. Peace on the Elf Continent had lasted for nearly 1,400 years. The comfortable and prosperous life had made the Silver Moon Elf accustomed to a life of enjoyment, and they always felt that war was something far away from them.

In the past, Gray Dwarf Bandit often appeared in the waters outside Ram Horn Fjord. There are many islands outside Ram Horn Fjord, which are scattered like stars and extend into the depths of the Endless Sea. The Silver Moon Elf of Ram Horn Fjord had long since completely abandoned the islands outside Ram Horn Fjord.

The local Silver Moon Elf had no courage to venture out of the fjord and fight the Gray Dwarf Bandit on the Outer Sea.

Since the Gray Dwarf ' homeland was invaded by the dark forces of the Abyss Hell, the defeated Gray Dwarf Bandit had no choice but to leave their homeland and sail south.

Although the Gray Dwarf pirates have occupied many islands in the sea west of Mensa Plain, some Gray Dwarf Bandit feel that this sea area is too close to their homeland, and that the dark forces of the Abyss Hell can attack at any time.

They continued south by sea, and after crossing the Mensa Plains, they arrived at St. Margaret's Port in the Evernight Forest of the Darkmoon Elf Kingdom.

Unfortunately, the Dark Moon Elves stationed at St. Margaret Port dealt a heavy blow to the Gray Dwarf Bandit.

The Gray Dwarf Bandit could only circle around the Endless Sea before continuing their Northern Aviation, eventually reaching the Outer Sea of Silver Moon Elf territory.

They first arrived at the Ram Horn Fjord, a sea area with many islands, but no large ones.

The Gray Dwarf Bandit ' warships, when they encountered Silver Moon Elf ships in the waters near Ram Horn Fjord, were not even completely destroyed. The Silver Moon Elf would immediately retreat back to Ram Horn Fjord upon seeing the Gray Dwarf Bandit ' sailboats from afar.

The Ram Horn Fjord Silver Moon Elf ' act of feigning weakness greatly inflated the Gray Dwarf Bandit ' confidence, making them think that the Silver Moon Elf were the cowards...

Just then, a group of Gray Dwarf Bandit found Empress Ivini Islands.

The islands in this sea area are very dense, and two large islands are particularly suitable for the Gray Dwarf to live on. So, after conducting some reconnaissance, the Gray Dwarf Bandit began to plot how to seize the Empress Ivini Islands.

However, these Gray Dwarf Bandit didn't realize that the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom was stationed on Empress Ivini Islands.

They were defeated on the Empress Ivini Islands, and the powerful fleet of the Gray Dwarf retreated directly along the Outer Sea back to the waters of the Horde Orcs.

However, some of the Gray Dwarf have taken refuge in the many islands outside Ram Horn Fjord.

Murayaki Port in Ram Horn Fjord is the northernmost seaport of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom.

Northern Aviation 100 kilometers from here leads to the border between the Silver Moon Elf and the Dark Moon Elf — the Villanoz Mountains.

The Villanoz Mountains lie between the Eternal Night Forest and the Whispering Forest; in fact, Gorfito is a canyon in the southern part of the Villanoz Mountains.

The Silver Moon Elf and Dark Moon Elf regard the Villanoz Mountains as a buffer zone. The Silver Moon Elf can operate in the southern part of the mountains, while the Dark Moon Elf operate in the northern part. Neither side has established towns or villages in the Villanoz Mountains.

The Villanoz Mountains are a controversial area between the Dark Moon Elf and the Silver Moon Elf.

Because the Silver Moon Elf are sparsely populated, most of the islands outside Ram Horn Fjord are deserted, while the Silver Moon Elf here mostly live in the Murayaki City inside the fjord.

The Gray Dwarf Bandit have occupied several islands with independent water sources outside Ram Horn Fjord.

Their presence here wasn't to plunder the island's resources, but rather to let the local Silver Moon Elf know: 'We've arrived, and we want to stay here.'

The Gray Dwarf Bandit attacked the Silver Moon Elf ' ships to demonstrate their formidable strength to the Gray Dwarf Bandit Silver Moon Elf.

The Supply Ship ships of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion and the Silver Pegasus Knight Order appeared in Ram Horn Fjord. The Gray Dwarf Bandit mistook this for a proactive attack by the Silver Moon Elf army and prepared to wipe out the Gray Dwarf Bandit on the islands outside Ram Horn Fjord.

The Gray Dwarf Bandit had no idea that the Silver Pegasus Knight Order were actually heading to Gorfito, and had no idea that Gray Dwarf Bandit were active there.

It was under these circumstances that the Gray Dwarf Bandit assembled more than one hundred Three-Masted Sailboat and blocked the Supply Ship fleet of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion outside Ram Horn Fjord.

If the Second Silver Pegasus Knight Regiment hadn't anticipated the Gray Dwarf Bandit ' fleet, this supply Supply Ship might not have even made it to Aio Island before being intercepted at sea by the Gray Dwarf Bandit ' fleet...

Departing from the Murayaki Port, the local Silvermoon Elven Nobles forces of Ram Horn Fjord assembled nearly three hundred medium-sized sailing ships, and the fleet sailed along the northern coastline of Ram Horn Fjord toward the fjord's exit.

Earl McCauley stood aboard a medium-sized sailing ship, while Viscount Philek beside him was pale, his smile appearing more like a cry...

This morning, he was dragged from Countess Stasa's bed by a group of elven guards, naked, and tied to a hitching post outside Earl Stasa's house, his body wrapped in thorny Thorn Vines. At that time, he was still shouting at the elven guards who were whipping him:

'What's wrong with an upright Silver Moon Elf pursuing love and freedom? Go ahead and send me to the trial court!'

As the deputy commander of the Security Guard Regiment, Viscount Philek possessed a delicate and beautiful appearance that was even more feminine than a woman's. His skin was as smooth and delicate as milk. He and Countess Stasa had been having an affair for quite some time.

In the past, dates were always arranged when Earl Stasa was out, but last night, Earl Stasa held a grand ball at the City Hall to welcome Earl McCauley of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion.

After the ball, Viscount Philek learned that Earl Stasa was going to spend the night at his lover's house, so he secretly slipped away to Earl Stasa's house...

The more enjoyable your sleep last night, the more miserable you will be when you wake up this morning.

Viscount Philek was tied to a hitching post, his body aching and itchy from the thorns of the Thorn Vine, and he had to endure constant whipping. To make matters worse, he was surrounded by Silver Moon Elf who were watching the spectacle. To prevent Viscount Philek from being beaten to death, Earl Stasa had his elven guards give Viscount Philek a cup of Tree of Life Sap every now and then.

The Life Potion was poured spoonful by spoonful directly onto Viscount Philek.

Upon receiving the news, Viscount Philek 'Viscount Philek family quickly tried to rescue him through various channels.

After much communication from various parties, Viscount Philek, covered in wounds, donned standard armor and personally led the Murayaqi Security Guard Regiment out to sea by ship...

'This isn't going to war! This is clearly going to their deaths!'

Viscount Philek, his face contorted with bitterness, inwardly wept.

Earl McCauley, vice-commander of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion, stood on the deck with a cryptic smile on his face.

As soon as the fleet left Ram Horn Fjord, they saw a densely packed fleet of Gray Dwarf Bandit crowding around the Aio Island. The Silvermoon Elven Guard only had medium-sized sailing ships, which, although numerous, were utterly vulnerable in the face of the Three-Masted Sailboat equipped with ballistae.

Viscount Philek felt as if he were in an ice cave; life was so wonderful, he didn't want to die so soon.

The fleet of medium-sized sailboats stopped at the mouth of Ram Horn Fjord and did not go any further.

Earl McCauley was startled to see the fleet of Gray Dwarf Bandit.

I originally thought that the Queen Ivini Islands Naval Battle would severely Gray Dwarf Bandit bandits, but I never expected that there would still be so many pirates in Ram Horn Fjord.

The fifth and sixth Silver Pegasus Knight Order flew in mid-air. The arrows they shot from high above were difficult to hit the Gray Dwarf Bandit on the Three-Masted Sailboat. Once they rode their Silver Pegasus close to the ship, they would immediately be subjected to concentrated fire from the ship's ballistae.

After several attempts, the Silver Pegasus Knights dared not swoop down to shoot the Gray Dwarf Bandit on the ship.

More than a hundred Three-Masted Sailboat surrounded the Aio Island, and the Gray Dwarf Bandit began to take advantage of the rising tide to prepare to forcibly land on the island.

A group of Gray Dwarf wearing Bucket Helmet and full-body heavy armor climbed from the Three-Masted Sailboat onto the landing craft. They wore extremely exaggerated shoulder armor. After the thirty-odd landing craft were filled with Gray Dwarf Bandit, they rushed towards Aio Island.

The Silver Moon Elf Warrior on the island's cliffs immediately tensed up.

When the Gray Dwarf Bandit rushed to the foot of the island in their landing craft, they immediately hid in the rocky depressions of the island, where they could effectively avoid the rolling rocks falling from the high cliffs.

When the Silver Pegasus Knight Order saw the Gray Dwarf Bandit attempting to force their way onto the island, they finally produced some flaming spears and hurled them at the Gray Dwarf Bandit fleet's Three-Masted Sailboat.

The Gray Dwarf Bandit adjusted their Shipborne Ballista to their maximum elevation and unleashed a barrage of medium-sized bolts with increased range at the Silver Pegasus rider in mid-air...

The battle seemed to break out suddenly; several Three-Masted Sailboat were engulfed in flames by the hurling of flaming spears.

Meanwhile, the crossbow bolts fired from the Three-Masted Sailboat also hit several Silver Pegasus knights, some of whom held Silver Pegasus Iris Shield and bent down to block the bolts.

Some Silver Pegasus riders didn't notice the incoming crossbow bolts. The bolts pierced the wings of the Silver Pegasus Silver Pegasus, causing it to stumble and fall from the sky...

Nine Magic Airship slowly descended from the clouds, just in time to witness the chaotic battle Silver Pegasus Knight Order and the Gray Dwarf Bandit Fleet.

Several Half-Elf Warrior, holding the horns of the Unicorn Wild Ox, stood on the Ship Building of the Magic Airship and blew their deep horns almost simultaneously.

'Waaaah...'

A deep voice echoed across the entire battlefield, and all the Elf Warrior turned their gazes toward the clouds.

Miss Christine, riding Silver Pegasus, also stood on the deck of a Magic Airship.

Roy kept issuing commands to the captains of the various Magic Airship, instructing them to use the Propulsion Device to adjust the hovering position of the Magic Airship, and then personally lifted the rain cover off a Shipborne Ballista...

Instantly, all thirty-six Shipborne Ballista on the Magic Airship were exposed to the sunlight.

Roy inserted a magic crossbow bolt, about 1.5 meters long, into the quiver, and then began adjusting the firing angle...

"Ready! Release..."

Roy maneuvered the ship's crossbow and fired a magical bolt.

After the magic crossbow bolt flew out, ice crystals continuously condensed around it, and even a glittering tail appeared at the end of the bolt. Unfortunately, Roy's shot was too off-target, and the magic crossbow bolt landed in the sea. The moment it hit the sea, all the ice crystals attached to the bolt shattered, instantly forming an ice crystal with a diameter of more than one meter on the sea surface.

Then, more than thirty crooked magic crossbow bolts were fired from the Magic Airship, almost all of them hitting the sea...

This caused the Gray Dwarf Bandit on the Three-Masted Sailboat to burst into laughter.
