Boss Roy's Business
Many Demon Hunter in the Wanderer Camp were waiting for news of the battle in the wilderness. A total of seventeen Demon Hunter had entered the wilderness of the Dark Land to pursue the young Half-Elf.
They had assumed they would return to the Wanderer Camp before the Dark Creatures became active.
But when everyone waited until the next day, the Demon Hunter who had gone into the Dark Land to hunt down the young Half-Elf still hadn't returned to camp.
By the third day, no news had been received regarding the ambush in the wild; the Demon Hunter who left the camp never returned.
The Demon Hunter in the Wanderer Camp sensed something unusual, and they began to get restless.
Old Pike, who had been sitting in front of the tent grumbling, had now returned inside and resumed his regular house calls.
People began to speculate whether the young Half-Elf was clever enough to change his route as soon as he left the Wanderer Camp, leading the group of Demon Hunter by the nose all the way. The two sides were now engaged in a thrilling chase in the wilderness of the Dark Land.
Or perhaps the Demon Hunter have already obtained the young Half-Elf's valuables, and because the amount is so large, the Demon Hunter have already fled to other camps to lay low...
Roy led two hundred Dark Moon Elf Warrior back to the Darkness Gate Expeditionary Force Camp before nightfall.
Nowadays, there are hardly any Dark Creatures in the valley where the Expeditionary Force is located, and even after dark, the Dark Creatures here are not very active.
The protective shield formed by the sixteen Magic Tower stood out uniquely in the valley...
When the Elf Warrior of the Mine Guard Regiment saw Roy return to the camp with a group of Dark Moon Elf Warrior, they immediately cleared the plaza by the pool in front of the Darkness Gate Portal, allowing the Dark Moon Elf Warrior, whose bodies were covered in dark energy, to rest by the pool.
Roy took out the Dark Scythe Bone Blade he had bought from the Wanderer Camp and handed them all over to Captain Timothy.
It is very simple to make a magic dagger from this bone blade. This particular magical beast material hardly needs any polishing. It is the blade itself. Just attach a handle made of a better material, and it will become a dark blade.
A dozen or so Dark Moon Elf Warrior immediately began crafting the Dark Blade.
Next, Roy and Captain Timothy huddled together to discuss who should receive the hundred-odd Dark Blades first...
According to Captain Timothy, he believed that priority should be given to Dark Moon Elf Warrior of Assassin Squad' Guild.
However, only 700 Dark Moon Elf Warrior came to the Dark Land this time, and only 73 officers of captain rank or above. This means that after distributing the Dark Blades to these captain-level Dark Moon Elf officers, there will still be 47 Dark Blades left to be redistributed.
Captain Timothy planned to distribute the remaining Dark Blades among the exceptionally skilled Dark Moon Elf Warrior in the Assassin Squad.
Roy felt there was nothing wrong with distributing the Dark Blade to the captains of the Assassin Squad.
However, the remaining Dark Blades should not be distributed based on individual strength, but rather on merit points within the Assassin Squad. Whoever accumulates enough merit points will be qualified to obtain a Dark Blade.
In a short time, many Dark Moon Elf Warrior in the Assassin Squad obtained the Dark Blade.
Captain Timothy also promised the other Dark Moon Elf Warrior who had not yet obtained the Dark Blade that the warband would subsequently venture frequently into the Dark Land to hunt this Darkness-type magical beast— the Dark Scythe.
Roy would return to Gorfito Canyon every month through the Darkness Gate to report to Legion Commander Gabreles on the situation of the Expeditionary Force camp.
As the month drew to a close, Roy rested for a night at the Expeditionary Force camp before returning to Gorfito Canyon with two Half-Elf Warrior through Teleportation Portal. Approaching the Main Hall from the back garden of the Goddess of Freedom Temple, he discovered that the legion commander was no longer in Gorfito Canyon.
Now that they were back in Gorfito Canyon, Roy didn't rush back to the Expeditionary Force camp.
After leaving the Goddess of Freedom Temple, he first returned to the camp of the Second Silver Pegasus Knight Regiment and met with Commander Malthus. He found that the camp was still the same as before. The Silver Moon Elf had become accustomed to life in the camp. After carrying out patrol missions, they would go to the camp's shower room to take a shower, and then go to the camp's rest area to sit for a while, drink some fruit tea and eat something casually.
Many Silver Moon Elf Knight greeted Roy when Roy returned to the camp.
These Silver Moon Elf Knight are usually very arrogant, so their willingness to greet Roy shows that these Silver Moon Elf Warrior acknowledge Roy as their leader...
"Commander Roy, how are you doing in the Dark Land?"
A Silver Moon Elf Knight asked Roy curiously.
Roy stopped in the camp's rest area and then answered the Silver Moon Elf Knight:
"It's alright. Except that day and night are reversed there, everything else is pretty much the same. Oh, and there's hardly any vegetation there, and you can rarely see any water..."
Roy's explanation was very detailed. Many aspects of the Dark Land overturned the Silver Moon Elf Knight ' understanding of the world. After hearing Roy's introduction, everyone was speechless and their impression of the Dark Land worsened.
In fact, elves are quite picky about their living environment. Most elves prefer to live in forests, and ideally, they would have a Tree of Life in their living area.
The environment of the Dark Land was clearly unsuitable for the elves.
Some Silver Moon Elf Knight couldn't help but secretly rejoice that they hadn't been sent to garrison the Dark Land.
Then they immediately realized that the army currently stationed in the Darkness Gate Expeditionary Force Camp was none other than Commander Roy's Mine Guard Regiment...
At a time like this, to appear relieved in front of Commander Roy Commander Roy would be somewhat disrespectful to him...
During Roy's time stationed at the Darkness Gate Expeditionary Force Camp, some changes also occurred in Gorfito Canyon.
Besides the camps of the Silver Moon Elf Guard Regiment, Roy noticed that there were also some scattered tents set up at the valley's exit, making Gorfito Canyon seem more lively than it had been a month ago.
Commander Malthus, leading a squad of Silver Pegasus Warrior, landed in the camp. Seeing Roy sitting in the camp's rest area, chatting with a group of Silver Moon Elf Knight, he walked over and said to Roy:
"Judging by the timing, I knew you would be back to report for duty in the next few days. However, your return at this time is very unfortunate, as the legion commander has just gone to Murayaki Port."
Roy waved his hand and replied with a smile, "For me, it doesn't matter whether I see Legion Commander Gabreles or not, it makes no difference anyway! Coming here and seeing the trees in the canyon lets me know that I'm still alive, instead of becoming a Dark Creatures!"
"There's a lot of resentment in your words. Are you being influenced by the Darkness Qi? Have your emotions been a bit unstable lately?"
Commander Malthus joked with a smile.
Then he leaned closer to Roy and said seriously:
"By the way, the personal letters from Earls Swynborne and McCauley have been delivered to the camp. The Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion is also closely monitoring the situation in Gorfito Canyon. I recently wrote to the military headquarters about the situation of the Second Silver Pegasus Knight Regiment and the Pagisto Mine Guard Regiment, and it has now gained the attention of the higher-ups. I estimate that the Gorfito military headquarters will give us a clear answer soon."
Roy was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected Commander Malthus to speak up for him...
Thanks!
"Since we've all been dispatched to Gorfito Canyon Gorfito Canyon, we've been bound together since the day we entered. There's nothing to thank us for!"
Commander Malthus said dismissively, a reserved smile on his face.
Actually, if the Silver Moon Elf could express their inherent pride, the elegance they exude would be quite attractive.
"I see a lot of tents at the entrance to the canyon. They don't look like any other army. What's their background?" Roy asked Commander Malthus.
Commander Malthus raised an eyebrow and replied, "You mean those mercenaries? They are currently applying to the Gorfito military headquarters for Darkness Gate passes. They want to enter the Dark Land to find their companions who were lost Dark Land. I heard that these mercenaries seem to have quite a background. Legion Commander Gabreles has already given his approval, and they are currently waiting for the final approval process."
Roy remembered that back in Castleton City, Byron.Toll had mentioned that they were going to enter the Dark Land to find the remains of their fallen comrades.
Hearing what Commander Malthus said, he wanted to go to the entrance of the canyon to see if he could spot Byron.Toll...
Roy chatted with Commander Malthus for a while, then left the Second Silver Pegasus Knight Regiment and walked along the path in the canyon towards the canyon entrance.
However, Roy did not see Byron.Toll along the way.
The purple mist on the path leading to the canyon entrance had become much thicker. Roy stepped into the thick mist, and a faint aura of holy light appeared around his body.
The divine aura emanating from Roy immediately dissipated into wisps of black smoke upon contact with the purple mist at the canyon entrance...
Roy was already used to this.
But when he turned around, he noticed that the two Half-Elf Warrior following behind him were also radiating a faint holy light, which would quickly evaporate when the purple mist approached them.
Roy was surprised that these two Half-Elf Warrior also had the Holy Light Power protecting them. It seems that they did not come away empty-handed from the Darkness Gate Expeditionary Force Camp.
Following the Mountain Road leading to the entrance of the Gorfito Canyon, Roy arrived at a small lake outside the valley and saw a row of Magic Airship Magic Airship moored on the shore, perfectly blending into the lakeside scenery and mountains...
In addition to these Magic Airship, many tents have been set up along the lake.
Some elves stood in the lake with their trousers rolled up, while others sat on the shore, looking quite relaxed. Many of the elves wore Magic Inscription Construct leather armor with weapons hanging at their waists...
A group of Unicorn Knight were on the stream across the lake, attracting the attention of many Unicorn Knight.
Roy arrived at the makeshift dock of the Magic Airship. The Half-Elf crew stationed on the Magic Airship saw Roy and immediately lowered the sampan on the ship.
Although the Half-Elf crew did not cheer loudly, the news that ' Boss Roy has returned from the Dark Land ' quickly spread among the Magic Airship. The Half-Elf crew could only stand on their own ships, but the captains of each airship couldn't wait to board the Magic Airship where Roy was.
"Boss Roy, what's the situation over there?" A half -Half-Elf captain leaned on the railing, asking Roy impatiently.
After boarding the ship, Roy sat down on the steps at the front of the deck and replied with a smile, "It's not as bad as I thought, but it's not a good place either!"
At that moment, he saw Viscount Philek hurrying over from another airship.
He had heard from Commander Malthus at the Second Silver Pegasus Knight Regiment that Viscount Philek had managed the Magic Airship fleet very well recently. A month ago, Roy handed over these Magic Airship to Viscount Philek, and it seemed that he had done a really good job.
Several Magic Airship were neatly moored on the lakeside, occupying a separate area, and even the simple dock built there was not open to the public.
Viscount Philek approached Roy and excitedly said, "Boss Roy Roy, I've come up with another great idea lately. We recently established Mine Guard Regiment Investment Fund, but we haven't had any good projects yet. Recently, I suddenly thought of using these Magic Airship to form a Transport Team, specifically responsible for transporting supplies from Murayaki City to Gorfito Canyon..."
Roy listened quietly to Viscount Philek's investment plan, which was to make use of the Magic Airship moored by the lake outside the canyon, and said to Viscount Philek:
"You need to get the approval of Legion Commander Gabreles first, and you also need to have trustworthy people in Murayaki City... Ah, I almost forgot that you've lived in Murayaki City since you were a child."
Roy continued, "I think we should give it a try!"
He paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and said to Viscount Philek, "However, it's worth noting that these Magic Airship are not accepted by the Silver Moon Elf on the Elf Continent, and all the crew members on the Magic Airship are Half-Elf, making their identities somewhat sensitive. Therefore, all operating permits must be in place, and all channels must be fully established before this can proceed!"
Viscount Philek was initially eagerly anticipating Roy's approval, after which he would embark on a full-scale operation...
Roy's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing all the enthusiasm in his body.
Firstly, in the Murayaki City, Viscount Philek couldn't get past Earl Stasa's obstacle.
"Actually, I also have some ideas, but this matter requires a well-connected Silvermoon Elven Nobles to step forward and do it."
After saying that, Roy took out some Dark Magical Beasts materials he had bought at the Wanderer Camp from his Magic Pouch and placed them one by one on the table in front of him. He smiled at Viscount Philek and said, "I can get some magical beast materials in the Dark Land. Can you help me check if these things can be sold in the magic market of the Elf Continent..."
