463. Encounter

The Earl of Swinburn pointed to the West Reef Islands in the pool, and said to Roy:

"This is the rear of the Queen Ivanie Islands, there are some Silver Moon Elves living on the island, you go to the island, the main responsibility is to maintain local law and order, clean up the gray dwarves on the island, and don't conflict with the Silver Moon Elves on the island."

"Berkeley will be in charge of the logistics, and this time I will equip the half-blood elf combat group you brought here with the armament of the legion's light cavalry, and the mine guard team will be upgraded to the local garrison of the Pagisto Plateau."

As he spoke, Earl Swinburn took out a regimental badge from a wooden box and put it on Roy's chest.

This represents Roy's official promotion to the head of the Silver Pegasus Legion.

Earl Swinburne patted Roy on the shoulder and said, "The Grey Dwarf bandits are menacing this time, their fleet always lands at night, you have to be on guard over there in the West Reef Islands." ”

"Yes, Lord Earl Swinburn!"

Roy gave a military salute to the Earl of Swinburn and said.

Roy walked out of the operations command room, only to find that there was still a group of officers waiting outside to see Earl Swinburn, these officers were all Silver Moon Elves, but when he saw Roy coming out of the operations command room, he didn't show a surprised or questioning expression.

The Silver Pegasus Military Department on Queen Ivanie Island was extremely busy, and there were always clerks running around in the hallways with papers.

After meeting with the Earl of Swinburn, Roy plans to return to the docks and sail to the West Key.

As I walked down the wooden staircase, I heard a familiar voice behind me:

"Roy, why are you here?"

Roy stopped, and when he turned around, he saw Miss Christine wearing a set of light green rattan armor, standing on the jogging platform of the staircase with an elven war bow behind her, leaning down to look down, a pair of beautiful big eyes with a faint smile, she pursed her lips very playfully.

A beam of light came in from the glass window behind her, passing right through the side of her face, shining crystal clear on her pointed ears, and the tiny veins on them were clearly visible.

"Miss Christine, I didn't expect to see you here!"

Seeing Miss Christine here, Roy was a little surprised.

When he left Castleton City last year, he had heard that Miss Christine was preparing to travel on the Elven Continent.

Miss Christine glanced at the clerks who were peeking at the side of the stairs, walked straight up to Roy, pointed to a terrace at the end of the corridor, and said, "Let's go and sit over there......"

Roy followed Miss Christine to the terrace on this level, where several tables were set up, around which chairs were messily arranged, and several Silver Moon Elf officers were sitting and chatting.

When they saw Miss Christine coming to the terrace, followed by a half-elf, they all stood up and gave way to the terrace.

Miss Christine propped her hands on the fence of the terrace and her eyes fell on the street opposite.

She said to Roy, "Aren't you managing the mines on the Pagisto Plateau?" Why did you suddenly run away to Queen Evanie Island? ”

"Earl Swinburn sent a requisition order, so I arrived with five thousand half-blood elves. It's you, didn't you say you were going to travel around the Elven Continent? How did you end up on Queen Evanie Island? Roy found a chair and sat down comfortably.

Miss Christine pursed her lips and smiled, "I have already arrived in Buenos City, and I heard that war broke out on Queen Ivanie Island, so I simply came back!" ”

"We don't know how many times we have fought with the Naga Sea Clan because of these islands, and this time there are so many gray dwarf bandits participating in the battle for the islands, of course I have to come back to help......"

Miss Christine sat on the railing, and a breeze blew through the trees, causing her long silver hair to fly in the wind......

"So you've joined the Silver Pegasus Legion?" Roy asked.

"I'm now Knight Christine of the Silver Pegasus Fifth Battle Regiment!" Miss Christine said proudly.

Roy didn't expect Miss Christine to become a Silver Pegasus Knight.

Hearing her say this, Roy looked at Miss Christine with some envy, and Miss Christine asked curiously:

"Roy, have you been tasked with garrisoning the outlying islands?"

Roy nodded and said, "Got it." ”

"Where?" Miss Christine asked, curious.

Roy replied truthfully: "...... over there in the West Reef"

Miss Christine actually took out a finely made nautical chart from her magic waist bag, and when she looked at the West Reef Islands, she said to Roy, "That is the closest island to the Elven Continent in the entire Queen Yvenne Islands, and now there are guards stationed there?" ”

"Well, it is said that the traces of the gray dwarf robbers have been found.".

Miss Christine was about to say something, but she heard an elf calling her name from the cloister below the terrace:

"Christine, it's time for us to go!"

Miss Christine hurriedly responded, turned her head and said to Roy, "My companion called me, I'm going out on a patrol mission, and I'll go to the West Reef to see you when I have the chance!" ”

"Okay!" Roy waved goodbye to Miss Christine.

Miss Christine sprang from the balcony railing and into the garden on the first floor......

By the time Roy reached the balcony railing, Miss Christine had disappeared into the cloister.

……

Walking out of the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters, he saw the head of Berkeley waiting in front of the carriage Roy was riding in, waving vigorously to Roy.

Roy ran over and hugged the head of Berkeley, who pulled Roy into the carriage and said to Roy, "Let's talk as we walk!" ”

The carriage turned around and headed straight for the harbor docks.

In the carriage, the head of Berkeley sat opposite Roy and said to Roy: "This time, Lord Earl asked me to go to the dock warehouse to get five thousand sets of metal light armor and hand them over to you, and you and I will go with me to collect this batch of armaments." ”

Roy nodded.

"I still need to send the replacement armament back to the port warehouse...... "Commander Berkeley continued, "Oh, by the way, did the thousand gray dwarf prisoners of war arrive on the Pagisto Plateau?" ”

Roy said, "I set up a blacksmith workshop in the Northern Black Iron Mine, and now almost all of those gray dwarf prisoners of war work in the blacksmith workshop. ”

"I saw a recent request for your supplies, which could be shipped to the Partington plane in a week." Head Berkeley said again.

"Now that the situation on the Pajisto Plateau is relatively stable, I plan to build a prisoner of war camp on the edge of the plains to hold headhunters on the plateau!" Roy said to the head of the Berkeley regiment.

Roy lowered his voice and asked the Berkeley Leader, "The Silver Pegasus Legion can be called one of the strongest legions in the Elven Continent, how did it fight the gray dwarf bandits for so long this time?" ”

There was a commotion in the bustling street market outside the window, and the head of Berkeley said to Roy:

"These gray dwarf bandits are very cunning, their main fleet has been in the waters of the Queen Ivanie Islands for more than half a year, and now the two sides are only small tentative battles, because the fleet is equipped with dwarven heavy crossbows, the silver Pegasus knights can not get close to those ships, can only stay on Queen Island."

"In addition, every time the gray dwarf bandits plan to seize the island, almost always at night, and there is fog on the sea, the silver Pegasus knights cannot fight the gray dwarf bandits in the foggy night, and the gray dwarf bandits always take the opportunity to capture the islands around the Queen Ivanie Islands, and at this time, the Silver Pegasus Legion cannot leave Queen Island all."

"When the elven warriors clear out the gray dwarf bandits who have infiltrated the island, these gray dwarf bandits will sneak into the caves or burrows on the island."

"We've been here for most of the year, so this time Earl Swinburn made up his mind and mobilized a group of guards to be stationed on these islands."

Hearing Captain Berkeley's introduction, Roy had a certain understanding of the battle situation here.

The battle is chaotic here, and several of the main islands of the Queen Ivanie Islands have been overrun by the Silver Pegasus Legion, but these Silver Pegasus Knights can't take care of the Silver Pegasus in the fringe areas.

The grey dwarf bandits have infiltrated the Queen Evannie Islands in large numbers, apparently determined to fight the Silver Moon Elf warriors to the end.

The carriage came to the harbor dock, which was full of Silver Moon Elf warriors, and some Silver Moon Elf warriors were sitting in the shade by the roadside chatting.

"We suspect that the Naga Sea Clan of the Endless Sea and the Grey Dwarves are colluding with each other to seize the waters around the Queen Ivanie Islands." The head of the Berkeley regiment whispered.

In front of the port warehouse, the commander of Berkeley showed the warehouse manager the list of supplies, and then entered the warehouse to inspect the light cavalry armor inside, these silver hussar armor is the standard armor that the Silver Pegasus Legion equipped with for the cavalry, these brand new armor are all shiny silver.

The commander of Berkeley, with a group of logistics personnel, moved the hussar armor from the warehouse to Roy's ship.

The full dressing continued into the evening, after which some food was loaded into the sailboats before the Berkeley regimental commander left the harbor with a group of men.

……

Facing the setting sunset, the fleet sailed out of the harbor dock.

These half-blood elven warriors on the ship were still in a state of excitement.

None of the half-blood elf warriors expected that after arriving in the Queen Ivanie Islands, although they could not get off the boat to wander around the lively islands, they were given a high-level armor of light cavalry.

I'm glad it didn't come in vain this time......

The fleet sailed downwind for most of the night before reaching Key West, the westernmost part of the Queen Ivanie Islands.

Since it was night, no one could see the appearance of the docked island.

And they didn't get off the ship, all the half-blood elves spent the night on the sailboat.

The next morning, a red sun rose above the sea level, and the entire island was clearly visible, and Roy found that the fleet had taken everyone to an island they had passed by.

Standing on deck, Roy could only see the pirate's vague appearance.

Now the fleet is docked at the island's small docks, which are medium-sized sailing ships that do not have a deep draft and are perfectly capable of docking at such small docks.

This coral reef island, which is completely covered by jungle, is surrounded by a circle of white sand beaches, and the whole island is in the shape of a pea, and the pier is built on the navel of the pea, which is a dock made of logs, which is very simple.

The island is not very large, probably no more than a kilometer long.

Roy brought over five thousand half-blood elven warriors, such a small island simply could not accommodate so many half-blood elven warriors, and it was impossible for all twenty sailing ships to dock on the dock of this island.

This is one of the islands in the West Keys, so Roy has only one ship of half-blood elf warriors stationed on this island.

The rest of the ships need to go to other surrounding islands.

Lord Swinburn says that there are still some Silver Moon Elves living in the West Key.

So far, Roy has not found any elves living on the island.

Roy walked out of the dock, pointed to the coconut tree more than thirty meters high next to the dense forest, and said to the half-blood elf warrior who walked down behind him:

"Build a sentry here, this small island is not very large, but it is the gateway to the West Key, and the fleet of gray dwarf bandits will be the first to find them when they enter the waters of the West Key."

"Don't rush to set up a tent and search around the island to see if there are any traces of the gray dwarf bandits......"

The jungle on the island is overgrown with weeds and vines, and to enter the jungle, you need to use a firewood knife to open the way.

Roy didn't stay on the island, he re-boarded the island docks, and the fleet sailed toward the interior of Key West, and an hour later, three closely connected islands came into Roy's sight.

When it is said that the three islands are connected, it is at low tide that the exposed sand beach connects the three islands.

But as soon as the tide rises, the three islands are immediately separated by the sea.

Roy stood on the deck, and there were some treehouses built in the woods of the three islands, apparently inhabited by elves.

Seeing a fleet of ships moored in the sea, a group of silver moon elves came out of the jungle, and everyone stood on the dock, looking at these sailboats curiously.

Roy asked the captain to dock the sailboat on the dock, and he quickly jumped over the side of the ship, jumped directly onto the dock, and slowly walked towards the group of silver moon elves.

At this time, an old elf on the dock with a cane in his hand looked up at Roy:

"Where are you from?"

He looked very old, but his body seemed to be full of power, and his eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to penetrate his soul.

Roy hurriedly said, "We are from the main island of Queen Evanie Island, and on the orders of Earl Swinburn, we will be stationed on this island for some time to avoid the Grey Dwarves from attacking the island. ”

"That's good news, you're a half-elf?"

The old elf asked, then at the group of half-blood elven warriors following Roy.

"Have you found any traces of the Grey Dwarves on the island so far?" Roy asked the old elf.

The old elf shook his head slightly, and said to Roy, "There is no trace of the gray dwarf robbers for the time being......
