467. Post-war
As the fleet of grey dwarf bandits left the waters around Key West, Roy's half-blood elven guard was officially declared victorious in this skirmish in Key West.
The Silvermoon Elves on the main island are gradually embracing the half-blood elven warriors who live in the woods of the western suburbs, and they are beginning to send some of the island's fruits and sometimes some sea fish to Roy's camp.
The old Silver Moon Elf even went to the camp in person, officially inviting Roy and the half-blood elf warriors to live in the village.
However, Roy felt that the woodland in the western suburbs was closer to the beach and the dock, and he could not disturb each other with the local Silver Moon Elf residents, so it was not easy to have other conflicts, so he decisively rejected the invitation of the old elf.
The old Silver Moon Elf came to the temporary camp this time and brought a lot of coconuts and oranges from the island.
He patted Roy on the shoulder and said to Roy with emotion:
"Thanks to you being on the island this time, you were able to stop those gray dwarf bandits, I am sorry for what I said before, thank you and these young elven warriors this time!"
It is actually not easy to make an old Silver Moon Elf put down his identity and shelf and say such a thing......
Roy didn't hold on to this matter, and hurriedly said very modestly:
"Since we have joined the Silver Pegasus Army, it is our mission and responsibility to protect everyone."
“……”
Hearing Roy say this, the old Silver Moon Elf was even more emotional, and his eyes were full of appreciation for Roy.
"Captain Roy, you can sit in the village and chat with us old fellows when you have time."
Before the old Silver Moon Elf left, he also extended a warm invitation to Roy.
When the other Silver Moon Elves looked at Roy, their eyes were also full of respect, obviously very recognizing the ability of this half-elf leader.
"I'm afraid the guards will have to be stationed in the West Reef Islands for a while, so they will inevitably disturb everyone!"
Roy sent the old Silver Moon Elves outside the makeshift camp, watched him leave with a group of Silver Moon Elves, and then turned back to the camp.
The fighting in the West Reef has subsided for the time being, but he has a busy day.
In the last few days, the main thing has been to use the Holy Light Technique to heal the wounds of those injured half-blood elven warriors......
Roy was in the camp every day in front of those wounded people to release the Holy Light Technique, although this set of divine patterns and prayers was a bit cumbersome, but he couldn't stand to repeat it hundreds of times a day, which made him easily release the Holy Light Technique even if he drew the divine pattern with his divine power with his eyes closed.
……
The makeshift camp was now filled with not only a thousand half-blood elven warriors, but also wounded people sent from the surrounding islands.
This time, the Half-Blood Elf Guardian and the Grey Dwarf Bandits fought on the islands of the West Key Islands for nearly a week, and at least 500 Half-Blood Elves were killed on the surrounding islands, and nearly 1,000 Half-Blood Elves were wounded.
Most of the wounded half-breeds were returned to the main island of the West Reef by medium-sized sailing ships.
The temporary camp here has better healing conditions, mainly with Roy's Holy Light Technique, no matter how seriously injured, as long as he does not die on the battlefield, there is a high chance of being rescued by Roy if he is sent to the temporary camp......
In the evening, the half-blood elves in the makeshift camp came to the beach, including some half-blood warriors who had been slightly injured.
In the space of a week, some of their friends had died in battle, and the half-blood elf warriors in the makeshift camp were a little depressed, they didn't expect the battle in the Queen Ivanie Islands to be so fierce when they were in the Pagisto Plateau.
This battle made many half-blood elf warriors feel resigned......
At this time, it was impossible for everyone to return to the Pagisto Plateau, and a dull and anxious mood continued to grow in the hearts of the half-blood elf warriors.
Roy felt that in the past two days, the atmosphere in the camp was a little wrong, and everyone was a little depressed......
That's why he prepared a bonfire party on the beach.
A bonfire was lit on the silver sand.
Roy took some half-blood elf warriors to catch some sea fish near the reef beach by the sea, plus the sea fish sent by the silver moon elves in the village, Roy asked the half-blood elf warriors to string the sea fish with sticks, and slowly roast them diagonally next to the campfire.
A wave of heat rushed to the fish, and suddenly a fragrance spread, and the plantain leaves spread flat on the sand were also full of fruits.
The wounded half-blood elf warriors also sat on the nearby reef, and everyone watched with curiosity as Roy instructed the half-blood elves to grill fish......
These half-blood elven warriors from the Pagisto Plateau rarely get to eat such fresh sea fish, so they are full of anticipation for these grilled fish inserted next to the campfire.
After Roy explained to the half-blood elven warriors how to grill the fish, he picked up some shells in the nearby sand, then walked over to the campfire and placed the shells on the sand.
While placing the shells, he also introduced to the half-blood elf warriors who were curious to watch:
"This shell represents the main island of the Queen Ivanie Islands, these are the islands around it, then this is the West Key Islands where we are, here is Pallam Island, here is Partington Island, as for this huge reef, you can think of it as the Elven Continent...... Yes, that's pretty much it! ”
It also took a lot of time for Roy to carefully lay out the distribution of these islands on the beach.
"In recent years, the Silver Pegasus Legion has been responsible for garrisoning the Queen Ivanie Islands, and I don't want this reef island to fall into the hands of other races, because this is a strategic fortress that can be attacked, retreated, and defended for the Elven Continent, and whoever occupies it will pose a certain threat to the Elven Continent, such as these gray dwarf bandits who are currently preparing to occupy the Queen Ivanie Islands......"
Roy stood next to the improvised sandbox, chatting to the half-blood elven warriors around him.
"We've come all the way from the Pagisto Plateau in the Partington plane to fight against those ferocious grey dwarf bandits, and I think there must be people complaining in their hearts by now that we're here...... What's the point of doing such a dangerous thing? Even if we die here, will anyone still remember us? ”
"I'm standing here right now, telling everyone what it means to defend Queen Evenney's Islands."
"This is the Queens Islands, this is the West Key, and this is Pallam...... We were on Partington Island, and we could see Pallam Island, so if we connect them in a line, it can be clearly seen that if the Grey Dwarf robbers occupy the Queen Ivanie Islands, they will inevitably extend their tentacles to Pallam Island and Partington Island......"
"Once they take Partington Island, then the Partington plane may fall into the hands of the gray dwarf bandits, have you ever thought about what the consequences will be once the gray dwarf bandits occupy Partington Island?"
"That's why we're here to defend the West Key, not only to protect the elves that live on the island, but also to defend our own homeland."
Roy's words caused the half-blood elves around him to fall into deep thought.
Seeing that those gray dwarf robbers were born with brute strength and were brave and good at fighting, everyone actually had some retreat in their hearts.
But now that Roy has introduced this area in detail, the half-blood elf warriors have discovered that the original defense of Queen Yvanie Islands is actually the defense of the Partington plane......
Every half-blood elf warrior has a fighting spirit in his heart again, and there is more brilliance in his eyes.
Everyone began to talk in private, changing the dull atmosphere of the past two days.
At this time, Roy couldn't help but think of Sabrina again, if she danced a 'morale dance' here, the fighting spirit of these half-blood elf warriors might be rekindled......
Then a melodious sound of the organ came.
On the beach in the evening, the sunset, the waves on the beach, everything is so beautiful.
……
In fact, it was not the half-blood elf warriors stationed on the various reef islands who repelled this gray dwarf bandit, nor Roy stationed on the main island, but the silver Pegasus warband in the sky.
Upon learning that the West Reef Islands were being attacked by the Grey Dwarf bandits, the Queen Ivanie Islands military headquarters responded quickly and quickly brought in a Silver Pegasus warband.
If it weren't for the Silver Pegasus Warband to arrive in time this time, I'm afraid that the fleet of the Grey Dwarf Bandits would have stayed in the waters of the West Reef Islands for a while longer.
At the same time, the casualties of the Guards Regiment may continue to increase, and the situation will deteriorate further.
Roy guessed that without the support of the Earl of Swinburn, the Silver Pegasus Warband would not have been able to come so quickly.
It took only two days from the appearance of the Silver Pegasus Warband, to the back and forth between the Silver Pegasus Knights and the Grey Dwarf Bandits' fleet in the nearby waters, and finally the Grey Dwarf Bandits' fleet leaving the waters of the West Keys......
Of course, the grey dwarf bandits didn't completely retreat, they just wanted to continue to harass the other islands around the Queens' Islands.
The Queen Evanie Islands themselves are very large, and counting the surrounding islands, even if the Silver Pegasus actually wants to go around the outer perimeter of the Queen Evanie Islands, it may take more than two days......
Therefore, the current five Silver Pegasus Warbands are just a drop in the bucket for the deteriorating situation in the entire Queen Evanie Islands, and these Silver Pegasus Knights cannot completely defeat the fleet of gray dwarven bandits.
In order to deal with these gray dwarf bandits, it is necessary to place guards on these islands inhabited by silver moon elves.
An island defense battle has completely eliminated the barrier between the Silvermoon Elves and the half-blood elf warriors on the island, and I heard that many wounded warriors were inhabited in the makeshift camp, and the residents of the island Silvermoon Elves also sent some magical herbs to make poultice cream.
Roy tried to use it, but he didn't expect that the ointment formulated by these magical herbs had a significant effect on wound healing......
……
The next morning, Vitas walked quickly up to Roy and whispered to him:
"Boss, there's a silver Pegasus knight outside the camp, saying she wants to see you!"
Roy put down the bandage in his hand, turned and walked towards the camp gate.
He didn't know many Silver Pegasus Knights, and the only female knight was Miss Christine, and when he came to the door, he saw Miss Christine wearing a gorgeous Mithril armor, holding the reins of the Silver Pegasus with one hand, and touching the neck of the Silver Pegasus with the other, constantly reassuring it.
Miss Christine heard a series of footsteps, turned her head and saw Roy hurrying out of the camp, and smiled at him.
Miss Christine was full of energy in the sun, and the sea breeze blew her long hair, making it dance in the wind......
"Miss Christine, why are you?" Roy was a little surprised.
Although Miss Christine said that she would come to visit Roy when they met in Queen Evanie Islands, Roy thought that Miss Christine was just talking casually, but she didn't expect to meet again so soon.
Miss Christine asked Roy with a light smile on her face:
"You don't know that it was our Fifth Silver Pegasus Warband that drove away the gray dwarf bandits in the waters near the West Reef Islands!"
Roy was a little embarrassed and said, "Uh, I'm sorry, I really don't know!" ”
Miss Christine handed Roy a wide roll of the eye......
"Do you want to walk around the camp?" Roy asks Miss Christine into the makeshift camp.
Miss Christine took the silver Pegasus with snow-white wings and shrunk on her back, put her long hair together, and then looked at the silver beach not far away and said:
"Come with me to the beach! The situation on the other side of Tallinn Island is also relatively tight, and the Fifth War Group has already rushed there, so I can take a half-day trip this time to see how you are doing......"
"Okay!" Roy hurriedly followed.
"This gray dwarf fleet has been chased by us to the waters of the Queen Ivanie Islands, but unfortunately there is no way to completely eliminate them, it is estimated that it will not be long before they will come here to harass the islands, you must be careful to guard against it......"
Miss Christine whispered.
Lately, she's been fighting fires in the waters around the Queen Evenni Islands with the Fifth Warband, and she's well aware of the habits of these grey dwarf bandits.
"So, you've been following the Fifth Silver Pegasus Warband to fight around this sea recently?" Roy couldn't help but ask.
Miss Christine stood on the beach, untied the reins of the silver pegasus, and let it run to and fro on the sand, and turned to Roy:
"Not really! We had four days off a month, and the occasional trip back to Castletown to take a break, wasn't a very far flight. ”
"It's nice to have the opportunity to take a monthly vacation from Castletown!"
Roy let out a sigh of admiration and envy.
"If the situation on this side of the West Reef is stable, you can also take time to go back to Castletown for a few days......"
Miss Christine said.
The two chatted casually on the beach, and it felt that time flew by, and Miss Christine only took half a day off, and soon flew in the direction of Tallinn on the snow-white silver pegasus.
