A Silver Moon Elf clerk walked briskly through the hallway with a stack of papers in his hand, a look of anxiety on his face, his boots making a series of muffled noises against the oak floor.

Entering the Padestor Silver Pegasus Legion, Roy sensed a sense of urgency pervading the entire military headquarters.

Even the guards at the gate straightened their waists......

Roy walked up the stairs just in time to see a clerk in a civilian officer's uniform speeding past him, without even looking at him.

Roy continued to walk up the stairs, and when he reached the third floor, he was stopped by the Silver Moon Elf guards guarding the staircase, even if Roy had the Silver Pegasus Legion nameplate in his hand, he couldn't pass through.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait long, and he saw the lieutenant of Chief Lucius coming down from the upper floor, and when he saw Roy, he said to the Silver Moon Elf guard:

"Archon Roy and Chief Lucius made an appointment."

The Silver Moon Elf guard, who knew the lieutenant well, took a half-step back and sideways to get out of the way of the staircase.

The adjutant gestured to Roy and asked him to walk ahead.

……

Almost at the same time, Chief Lucius was in his office.

Captain Heckles sat on the bench in the lounge area, his body slightly relaxed, one hand rubbing against the smooth armrest.

Chief Lucius was looking at a document he had just received.

The Queen Evanie Islands are in full swing, and this time there are more gray dwarf bandits gathered from the west coast of the Endless Sea, and almost all the outer islands of the Queen Evanie Islands have traces of gray dwarves.

Although these gray dwarves can't defeat the silver Pegasus warriors in the sky, they are not afraid of the silver moon elf infantry warbands who have landed on the island to fight, although the Earl of Swinburne is currently defeating the main fleet of the gray dwarf bandits, but the out-of-control islands are becoming more and more.

The Silver Pegasus Legion can only draw the garrison of the Partington plane, but now on the Partington plane, the garrison of the Silver Pegasus Legion is only two thousand defenders in the city of Paddestow.

Once the Silver Pegasus Army evacuates all garrisons from the Partington Plane, the Partington Plane will also face a situation that will get out of control.

After losing the Battle of Pagisto Plateau, the cavalry vanguard regiment under the command of Helix was assigned to guard the city in the Silver Pegasus Legion.

With Commander Lucius's care, Commander Helix's life was also quite nourishing, but at present, a requisition order from the legion was sent to Commander Lucius, and the letter suggested that Commander Lucius should withdraw the Silver Guard stationed in the city to Partington Island while recruiting new troops in the city.

"The battle situation in the Queen Ivanie Islands this time is a bit complicated, and the top wants to transfer this garrison in your hand to the islands in the southwest corner of the archipelago, Helix, what do you think about this matter?" Chief Lucius asked.

Commander Helix asked rhetorically, "After the Guards leave here, what will happen to the city of Padusto?" ”

"A new army will be formed." Chief Lucius snorted, his tone a little dull.

"Then delay it as far back as possible, and when the new army is almost formed, some things will have to be handed over......," Commander Helix said with a frown.

He didn't want to go to the Elven Continent to fight.

Commander Lucius saw that Commander Helix didn't really want to go to the Queen Ivanie Islands to fight, so he could only sigh lightly and say:

"Well, if you don't want to go, send your lieutenant out, and you continue to take over as the head of the guard of the city of Padusto."

Captain Helix grinned, got up from the bench, and said to Chief Lucius, "That...... Thank you, Uncle Lucius! ”

Captain Helix saluted and took his farewell to Chief Lucius.

Although Commander Lucius was eager to talk to Helix about the formation of the new army, Commander Helix was not in any interest in talking about the subject, so he pushed the door and walked out.

……

Roy met Commander Helix in the passage on the top floor of the military headquarters, and seeing that he was in a good mood, he hurried through the corridor without noticing Roy at all.

The adjutant could only stand beside Roy and whisper to Roy:

"That one is Lord Helix, the head of the Padestor City Guard, and he is currently in charge of the city's defense."

Roy nodded slightly, followed the adjutant to a beautiful door, the adjutant knocked on the door, turned to Roy and made a waiting gesture, and walked into the door alone.

The lieutenant then pushed the door open and invited Roy in.

Chief Lucius sat behind a quaint desk with papers piled high on it.

Lucius was a little slightly haired, wearing a soft shirt, his hair was meticulously groomed, and he exuded the air of a superior person.

"Chief, Archon Roy of Fortress Town has arrived."

The adjutant's voice rang out behind Roy.

Roy walked straight into the room and saluted.

Chief Lucius stood up and motioned for Roy to sit in the chair across from him.

The Silver Moon Elf nobleman's eyes were very bright, and he stared at Roy for a while before saying:

"Roy, I heard that you defeated the Highland Headhunter on the Pajisto Plateau, and that's a good job!"

Roy hurriedly said: "Thank you Commander Lucius for complimenting, the battle on the Pagysto Plateau was able to be won, mainly relying on the support of the Silver Pegasus Army behind the scenes. ”

Seeing that Roy is not the kind of officer with an upright personality, at least he speaks beautifully, and the smile in Chief Lucius's eyes is even stronger.

"Did you get into any trouble when you came down from the Pagisto Plateau this time?" Chief Lucius asked with concern.

"The main thing is that the materials on the plateau are relatively scarce, almost everything, this time I came down from the plateau, I want to build a trade route, you also know that there are many mines on the Padesto Plateau, rich in metal ingots and spinels, this time I came to Padsto City mainly to exchange these metal ingots and gems for the materials that are in short supply on the plateau, so that those abandoned mines can resume production as soon as possible......"

Roy spoke to Chief Lucius.

Roy had obtained permission from the Earl of Swinburn for these things.

After all, the Silver Pegasus was eager to evacuate the Pagisto Plateau and had limited support for Roy, so the Earl of Swinburne promised Roy that he could invest these resources in mine guarding and construction.

Speaking of this, Roy can talk for a long time, mainly because he is usually responsible for many and miscellaneous things.

"Chief Lucius, what's the trouble...... The main thing is that after rescuing the half-blood elf miners, all mines are facing a shortage of miners, and I hope that the military department can allocate some of the gray dwarf prisoners of war captured from the battlefield, and those gray dwarf bandits are born miners. ”

Roy changed the subject and took the initiative to ask Chief Lucius.

Chief Lucius said: "This matter was told to me once before Berkeley left the Partington plane, and my side is also very supportive, and the military department has also agreed to transfer some gray dwarf prisoners of war to the Partington plane, and now the logistics department is actively communicating with the prisoner of war camp, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the first batch of gray dwarf prisoners of war will arrive in Padstow City." ”

Roy didn't expect Elder Lucius to agree so happily.

Although I don't know if the follow-up logistics team will actively promote the transfer of gray dwarf prisoners of war as Commander Lucius said, at least the chief has responded positively to this matter.

Roy hurriedly said:

"Thank you, Chief Lucius, for your support."

Roy thought to himself, this Lucius chief didn't seem to be so difficult to deal with......

At this time, Chief Lucius crossed his hands together, his eyes fell on Roy's face, and said with a serious face:

"Roy, this time I was able to drive the Plateau Headhunters to the land of the Ancestors of Gazan and rescue a large number of half-blood elf miners, which caused a lot of repercussions in Padstow City, and this thing was well done. It's just that a large part of those half-blood elf miners on the Pajisto Plateau are former rebel fighters, so be cautious in this regard, your side must restrain these half-blood elf miners as much as possible, and restrict them from concentrating on Padstow City, otherwise the security of Padesto City will have a big problem. ”

"Count Swinburn, I will try to minimize the number of packers who will reach Padstow City as much as possible, so as to limit the influx of a large number of half-blood elven miners into Paddestow City!" Roy responded.

He understood Elder Lucius' concerns.

"That's good!"

Chief Lucius's worst fears were solved, and he asked Roy:

"What kind of trade do you plan to set up a trading firm in Padstow this time?"

"Primary magical herbs, low-grade magical beast materials, gems and metal ingots on the Pajisto Plateau." Roy said frankly.

Because the high-level magic herb business and the Warcraft materials business are still in the hands of the Silver Pegasus Legion, Roy will choose low-level magic materials, gems and metal ingots.

Chief Lucius saw that Roy had not crossed the line, and that he could not interfere in these businesses, so he naturally did not want to talk more.

"Recently, the Silver Moon Elf revealed that Ling executed the Silver Moon Elf Abel on the Pajisto Plateau, and this matter is more troublesome!" "Although this Abel is not a Silver Moon Elf nobleman, he is a descendant of a Silver Moon Elf nobleman, it's just that the title didn't fall on his head, you may have to be interrogated by the inspection department recently, you had better make some preparations in advance."

Chief Lucius plans to use this to sell Roy a favor.

Roy hurriedly explained the cause of death of the owner of the Abil mine, mainly to highlight a reason: 'When he escaped, he attacked the half-blood elf warriors who were chasing from behind, and Abel died in the melee. ’

Chief Lucius went on to say to Roy:

"That's fine, but you need to write a written report, and it's just a formality, but you also have to be careful with your wording, and this kind of little thing will be resolved quickly."

Commander Lucius was relieved to see that Roy was not here for the position of head of the Padstow City Guard.

Roy's first meeting with Chief Lucius ended happily.

Although Chief Lucius tested him more than once throughout the conversation, Roy felt that it was actually normal and not a big deal......

……

Roy made his way to the tavern again, walked to the front of the bar and said hello to the bartender, who turned around and took out a note from a cupboard, pressed it under the cup and pushed it to Roy.

Without seeing the half-breed female elf Dennis, Roy didn't rush to drink, just moved the cup away and looked at the Juanxiu text on the note.

It just wrote a somewhat vague trading location: No. 3 apple orchard on the east side of Nancheng District.

The trading time was actually written in the early hours of tonight.

"Dennis said she would keep an eye on the fat sheep herself......" the bartender said to Roy.

Roy nodded, held the note in his palm, drank the orange water from the wine glass, and hurried out of the tavern, a noisy sound came from behind......

That mine owner should be in a hurry to return to the Elven Continent, so he was so eager to buy a teleportation pass, even if it was cut in half by a knife.

Walking down the street, the air is filled with a fresh smell of after the rain, the sky is completely dark, and the forest roads in the city of Paddestow are even darker.

This time, instead of hiring a carriage, Roy walked to the southern part of the city, the lowest part of Padstow, where many poor half-blood elves lived, and at night, only this area did not have enough lights.

Roy hurried to what Dennis said was Orchard Three, and a half-blood elf emerged from a bush and led Roy into the orchard.

"The time I made with the Alva mine owner was midnight, and the location was in the glade ahead, and the time had not yet arrived, so it might be a little while, and I made an appointment with him, and we could only send one person to trade." Dennis jumped down from a tree and said, she was wearing a light leather armor and looked quite sexy.

Seeing that Roy had come alone, he asked Roy again, "Boss Roy, do you need my manpower to help later?" ”

Roy stood under an apple tree, shook his head, and said calmly, "I'll do it myself......"

Dennis nodded and whispered to Roy, "If you escape, if you want information about this Alva mine owner, you may have to add money......

Roy glanced at Dennis, but he didn't expect the half-breed female elf to be in the mood to joke at this time.

The glade in front of it was about the size of a football field, and it was dark at night, but when it was almost midnight, a crescent moon poked its head out of the treetops, and the moonlight fell like snow, and the glade was clearly revealed.

Roy held the Book of Judgment in his hand, wearing only a robe, and walked step by step to the center of the glade.

He stood there silently, reciting a prayer that looked like a devout believer praying to the goddess of the moonlight.

"Where's the other half of the teleportation pass?" A hoarse voice came from Roy's side, and Roy turned his head to look, but he didn't even see a figure.

However, when Roy heard this, he took out the half of the parchment teleportation pass from his arms, held it up and shook it vigorously.

He looked around vigilantly and asked into the air, "What about the rest of the magic crystals?" ”

The voice sounded from his right side again: "You unfold the teleportation pass, don't move ......"

As Roy slowly unfolded half of the teleportation pass in his hand according to the voice, a bulging money bag suddenly fell on the grass ten meters away.
