Roy didn't return to Barrier Town, and the party took the magical herbs along the forest paths of the public domain and drove straight to Padstow City.

In the past, there were basically no merchant groups coming and going, let alone any adventuring groups, and the roads were overgrown with weeds, which had even swallowed up the road.

Roy was very familiar with this road and led the adventure party all the way.

Occasionally, the party will encounter the patrol of the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion.

Almost everyone in these patrols knew Roy and Sabrina, and the elven rangers turned a blind eye to the sight of them in the ranks, even argali, which were carrying magical herbs.

None of the patrolmen would come up and do a routine check on the party without any interest.

At first, when Reisander and Lambo saw the patrol, they would become nervous, for fear that they would come over and check each elf.

After a few times, they were able to face the elves of these patrols calmly......

"Why didn't they come and check on us?" Lambo, the son of Reshander, asks Roy.

Roy certainly can't say 'me and Christine. Miss Swinburn is a classmate, so she could only touch her nose and said vaguely, "Not all half-blood elves have to be checked, we have legal hunting expedition certificates." ”

Lambo was a little surprised, because in his eyes, those Silver Moon Elves had never been so kind.

……

After three years of restoration of the public territory, the magic herbs and primary magical beasts in the woodland have increased significantly.

The party passed through the glazed forest, even in the most dangerous areas.

Further north, you can often see some abandoned elven villages, which have become dilapidated, and those half-blood elves are also dead and scattered......

Today's Partington plane is at least a big step worse than the Partington plane in its heyday.

"There are hardly any high-level magical beasts to be seen here...... That's great! ”

Along the way, when he saw some fruit trees full of fruit, he would slow down and squint his eyes to take a good look.

Roy pointed to the large forest and said:

"It's been a public domain for a long time, and you can reach the Padesto Plateau to the west, the Blackwater Marsh to the east, and the city of Paddestow to the north, but this wooded area is still very large......

"Public territory?" Reisander's eyes widened, it was the first time he'd heard Roy talk about the forest.

Roy explained, "Well, this forest will not become a private territory, and anyone can gather and hunt in this forest......"

"How can it be!" Lambo also said in surprise.

Reisander and Lambo, father and son, looked at each other, but said nothing.

The outskirts of Padestor are full of orchards, most of which are planted with apple trees, orange trees, breadfruit trees, etc., which are currently largely owned by the 17th Silver Pegasus.

Roy passed by some orchards and could see farmers pruning their branches in the orchards, which were said to need to be pruned every year so that the apples would be big and sweet the following year.

Before dark, the adventuring group climbed over a mountain ridge, and the city of Paddestow appeared in everyone's sight.

The hillside was crowded with treehouses, and it was evening......

The mountain of treehouses was lit up, and the hillside was filled with a sea of lights, a scene that was far less prosperous than Castleton City, but it was already the most prosperous place in Partington's plane.

The lights on the hillside and the stars in the night sky are far away, and the beauty and noise make you can't help but take your breath......

A gust of night wind hit, so comfortable that you want to shout out loud.

"Camp here today, and we'll be in Paddestow tomorrow morning." Roy said to everyone.

"Roy, Padstow City is right in front of you, why don't we go to the city and rest in one breath?" Claire came from behind and asked when she saw the lights on the opposite hillside.

"It's okay to walk into town now, but then we'll have to go at least until midnight." Roy jumped off his horse and said to his friend.

He removed all the saddles from his horse's back, then tethered the horse to a large tree overgrown with weeds and fed the horse some water.

The other members also tied their horses to trees, and the ground was covered with grass, as long as they were given some water.

By this time Woods had tied up his horses and began to pitch his tent in the clearing.

In recent days, Claire has been leaning towards Roy's side......

After hastily setting up the tent, Claire ran over and sat in front of Roy's tent, looking at him expectantly.

Roy set up the tent very carefully, then spread the mattress in the tent again, and he turned to look at Claire, who was sitting next to him.

"Roy, have you heard those beautiful melodies in nature lately?" Claire asked quietly with a grin.

Roy patted his forehead, and then he remembered that this expedition was about to end, but what he had promised Claire had not yet been done......

Since Claire couldn't wait any longer, Roy patted Claire on the shoulder and led him to the edge of the camp.

There happened to be a huge granite rock here, and the two of them climbed this boulder.

Sitting on the boulder, you can clearly see the beautiful night view of the city of Padstow.

"Well, I did hear a song, listen carefully!"

Roy sat on the boulder, closed his eyes, and began to hum the tune quietly.

Claire sat on the side and listened quietly, and after Roy had hummed a few words repeatedly, he couldn't help but hum along with Roy.

After a while, Roy stopped, and Claire said with admiration on her face, "Roy, this piece is cheerful enough, does it have a name?" ”

"Claire's summer." Roy smiled and said.

"My summer?" Claire was dumbfounded.

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the leaves rustled throughout the woodland.

"Well, listen...... Isn't this melody just drifting in the night breeze in the mountains and forests......" Roy continued.

Claire was a little dumbfounded, he really hadn't heard anything.

Only Roy could hum softly, and the expression on Claire's face was somewhat rich.

It's a very cheerful song, and as long as you hear this melody, you can feel the summer ......

Claire also tried to close her eyes.

But no matter how hard he tried, he could only hear the whining wind in the mountains and forests, and as for the beautiful melody in Roy's mouth, he couldn't hear it, no matter how attentively he listened, he didn't hear it.

"You...... How can you hear it? Roy, I think you're the most gifted composer I've ever met. Claire couldn't help but say to Roy.

Roy paused, pressed his hand to his forehead, and pondered how he could make up a reasonable reason.

"Well, I said it, I don't make any tunes at all, I just describe the melody I hear to you, and all you need to do is make this melody more complete and beautiful, you are creating!" Roy explained.

Claire saw that Roy didn't want to admit it anyway, so she had to say, "...... Slow down, hum a little slower this time, I'll have to remember it again. ”

"Oh, it may be a little different from the one you just hummed, you can just remember this melody, the rest doesn't matter at all......"

Roy wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued to hum the melody.

It is estimated that Claire will not even want to sleep this night.

Fortunately, he will arrive in Padstow City tomorrow, and he can do whatever he wants when the time comes.

Seeing Claire sitting on the boulder, humming the melody constantly, and having entered a state of self-forgetfulness, Roy quietly slipped off the boulder.

Moira was leaning against the shadows behind the boulder.

Roy slid off the boulder and landed right next to Moira...... Nearly stepped on her, startling Roy.

Moira looked at Roy with a look of adoration, "Roy, do you still write tunes?" ”

"I really don't know this, I've just heard this melody, and then I repeat it to Claire and let him play it himself." Roy waved his hand at Moira and added, "Okay, it's so late, hurry up and go to sleep!" ”

"Oh......"

……

Sure enough, as Roy expected, Claire spent the whole night sorting out the score.

The next morning, Roy crawled out of the tent to find Claire still sitting on a boulder, his body even covered in dew, and he was sitting struggling to write a score, his eyes bloodshot.

Woods yawned out of the tent, saw Claire sitting on a boulder at the edge of the camp, and asked Roy:

"Roy, what is Claire doing? He didn't seem to sleep all night! ”

Roy walked over to the boulder and glanced up at Claire before saying, "He's creating, he's making music...... It may be so passionate. ”

As soon as the morning fog cleared, the adventuring group walked down the hillside path......

As Roy had calculated, the party didn't reach the edge of Padstow until noon.

Before entering the city, a team of elven patrols stopped Roy's adventurer.

This elven patrol team is usually mainly to maintain the security of the city, and occasionally investigates the goods of some merchant groups, and they rush out of a small road on the edge of the city, and stop Roy's adventure group in an instant.

The Captain of the Elven Patrol approached.

He stared at Roy for a long time, then walked to the back of the party, looked at the argali, and ripped off a few leaves from a bundle of magical herbs, and put them under his nose to smell them carefully.

Roy dismounted and walked over, but before he could take out the portal credentials, the patrol captain pinched his nose and asked:

"What are these?"

Roy replied honestly, "Magic herbs." ”

With a cold face, the patrol captain asked Roy, "Where did you get these magic herbs back?" ”

Roy said, "Fortress Town, I am the Archon of Barrier Town, this is my accumulated herbs, ready to be brought to Castleton City......"

At this time, the captain of the patrol took Roy and took out the pass, which also included the letter of appointment of the Archon of Fortress Town.

As the mayor of Barrier Town, there is no problem in bringing some magical herbs from the Partington plane.

The elven patrol captain just checked Roy's pass, and when he saw the name signed under the pass, all the doubts on his face disappeared, and he took the initiative to hand the pass to Roy, and then left in a hurry.

The city of Paddestow is still very lively, and when the adventuring group enters the city of Padstow, a group of half-blood elves immediately surround it.

But no matter what they asked, Roy didn't bother to talk to them.

These half-blood elves basically want to know how to open up the trade routes of the Partington plane.

There were even some half-blood elves who wanted to sneak up on the magic herbs that the argali's back was, and everyone squeezed over, and Roy could only ask the party to speed up.

Entering the city of Padstow, the elven guards did not stop them.

It was the half-blood elves in the city who stopped them......

Roy pulled his neck and shouted, "Let's go, let's go to the hotel to rest, if there is any problem, I can wait until I wake up and tell everyone, now please get out of the way......"

The half-blood elves still refused to get out of the way, so Roy could only lead the horse and squeeze forward.

There are more and more half-blood elves gathered here, and the long face has become a little chaotic......

The patrol team that had just left immediately rushed over, and they first dispersed the half-blood elves, and the group of adventurers was able to get out of trouble.

The elven patrol captain didn't leave in a hurry this time, he took a few elven patrolmen and sent Roy directly to the hotel.

This inn is the one where Roy often stays, and when he walked into the lobby of the hotel, Roy greeted the innkeeper familiarly:

“…… Two rooms, this time it may be a little longer, and a dozen argali will have to be fed for a while. Roy said to the innkeeper.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you, so you've gone to buy magic herbs!" The innkeeper said casually when he saw the large bundle of magical herbs on the back of the argali.

The innkeeper then herded the argali, and Roy had to return the horses to the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion's logistics department, which had borrowed them at the time, and therefore did not bring them into the stable.

"Just a little bit back......" Roy said with a smile.

The innkeeper offered Roy a fair price, and after settling Reisander and Lambo, Roy asked everyone to go to the logistics department of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion, where they could return the horses.

Roy was already familiar with this kind of thing, and the quartermaster of the logistics department also knew Roy, and the formalities were quickly completed.

When I returned to the hotel again, I wanted to say goodbye to Lei Shande and Lambo, father and son.

Roy needs to take all the magic herbs with him, and he needs to transport them to Castletown City, then find a way to dispose of them, and use the magic crystals to buy weapons and armor.

"I'm really going to take these magic herbs with me this time, if it goes well, I can probably return in a week and deliver the weapons and armor to you, if it doesn't go well, it may take two weeks, or even more, and if it does, I'll write to you to tell you that you're staying in this hotel for the time being, waiting for my news."

Before leaving, Roy said to Reisander.
