Chapter 486 487. Berkeley's Request

This is a letter written by Grand Priest Reed at the end of last year, but I didn't expect it to take nearly ten months before it reached Roy's hands through the head of Berkeley.

It seems to have been a letter from before a battle, and Archpriest Reed didn't reveal much information in the letter, but even in such a desperate predicament, he still believed in his faith and longed for light to come to the dark places.

The letter said that he was very grateful to Roy for retrieving the Holy Grail of Wisdom, and that it was the Holy Grail of Wisdom that allowed their priests to draw a trace of divine power in the Dark Lands.

After seeing this letter, Roy was a little worried about the safety of Grand Priest Reed.

It's just that the gate to the Dark Lands is in Golfito, and it is also the headquarters of the Liberty Temple in the Elven Continent, Roy is not a priest of the Liberty Temple, so he can't approach the gate to the darkness at all.

Thinking of this, Roy sat in his chair with some frustration, and the dusty construction site in front of him could not stop the chill rising from the bottom of his heart.

……

The Berkeley Commander wanted Roy to go to Paddestow City to help him, and with Roy's reputation in the hearts of the half-blood elves of the Partington plane, it was not too simple to establish a half-blood elf guard army in Paddestow City.

Due to a naval battle in the Queen Evanie Islands, the Silver Pegasus changed their military plans for the next few years, shifting their strategic focus from the Partington plane to the Queen Evanie Islands.

The Silver Moon Elven Guards in Padstow will also be evacuated from the Partington Plane in the coming months.

In this case, there will be a need for a half-blood elven guard in Padestol.

The main reason for the dismissal of Chief Lucius was that he did nothing in this matter, which eventually caused the dissatisfaction of the top management of the Silver Pegasus Legion and was dismissed.

But Roy doesn't want to do seven Padstow City, at least not yet.

There are still more than a dozen mines on the Pagisto Plateau that have not had time to be rebuilt, the city of the plateau has just begun to take shape, and the ten mines under Roy's control have entered a profitable period, and Roy also promised the village chief of Tiprado and Kaka and others that after the matter on the Pajisto Plateau has calmed down, he will take the half-blood elf warriors to advance into the bay of Sun Island.

In fact, if Captain Berkeley had arrived in Highland City a few days later, Roy would probably have already set foot on his journey to the Bay of the Sun Isle.

Roy was reluctant to take the position of the head of the Half-Blood Elf Guard Regiment in Padstow City, not only because the city of the Plateau was under construction, but also because there were 15,000 highland headhunter prisoners of war gathered in the city, and if these headhunter prisoners of war were not kept an eye on, once they made a fuss, it would evolve into an uncontrollable situation.

In addition, 80 kilometers away, in the North Black Iron Mine, there are nearly 3,000 gray dwarf prisoners of war......

Roy's mine guard regiment on the Pagisto Plateau currently only has more than 10,000 mixed-blood elf warriors, and once these prisoners of war riot, it will be difficult to calm down in a short period of time with these half-blood elf warriors in Roy's current hands, and the Pajisto Plateau will enter that kind of chaotic situation of war.

Although Mu Lin is in charge of the overall situation, it is impossible for Roy to put all his chips on such a young half-blood elf female warrior......

……

Although Roy did not agree to the request of the Berkeley leader, Roy gave the Berkeley leader a suggestion, if you want to recruit a half-blood elf guard in Padstow City, you must find a half-blood elf strong man with enough reputation to stand up.

Captain Berkeley also knew this, so he traveled all the way to find Roy, but unfortunately Roy didn't agree.

The next morning, as the head of Berkeley prepared to leave the city of the plateau, he led his horse and a few Silver Moon Elf guards down the steps to the north gate.

Beyond the walls built close to the banks of the Torai River, the head of Berkeley could see herds of one-horned bison and antelope in the vast plains.

At this time of year, there is abundant rain on the banks of the Tolai River, and the river water spreads to the stone foundation below the city wall, and it can be seen that Roy also fully considered the problem of the Tolai River when he built the wall.

On the side of the River Tolai, the city of the plateau even built a pier with stone steps that lead to the middle of the river, and a large square above.

Some of the caravans that had arrived from the city of Padestor also had some stalls in the square......

The Berkeley Commander could imagine that it would not be long before this highland city would become the most prosperous place in the entire Pagisto Plateau, where a large number of half-blood elves would gather and more caravans would come here to do business.

Berkeley still remembers the first time he met Roy, when Roy was only a guide in the Vanguard Cavalry Regiment, and the Berkeley Commander only thought it was a little strange that such a half-elf appeared in the Silver Pegasus Legion......

The second time he met Roy, Roy had already been appointed by the Earl of Swinburne as the mine owner of the First Mine.

At that time, he was still thinking about how the Earl of Swinburn could let such a young half-elf be the mine owner, what the Earl thought in his heart, and he also talked to himself about it, hoping that he could take care of some of this half-elf young man as much as possible in terms of logistics and material supply.

It was only later that Berkeley discovered that the young half-elf was really thoughtful, and that he had some unique insights into the affairs of the mine.

He is not a Silver Moon Elf, so he will not discriminate against Half-Blood Elves and Dark Moon Elves, and can basically be fair and just......

So he dealt with the problems of the first mine very well, and then the second and third mines...... Until now, the Mine Guards have taken over the entire Pagisto Plateau and defeated the Plateau Headhunters.

The Silver Pegasus Knights, who had come to the Pagisto Plateau, had failed to succeed in these things......

Now Roy has begun to build a plateau city in the hinterland of the Pajisto Plateau, looking at the outline of the outer wall of the city, the Berkeley regiment estimates that when this plateau city is completed, it is estimated that it will accommodate hundreds of thousands of half-blood elf residents.

However, at present, the number of half-blood elves in the entire Pagisto Plateau is estimated to be no more than 100,000.

Just when the head of Berkeley was thinking nonsense, Roy chased directly after him from behind.

The street has been paved with stone steps, the drainage ditch on the left side of the road has been repaired, and only the stone slabs are left on the ditch, and the street may be preliminarily completed, and the construction of narrow flower beds and street trees may be carried out later.

The horses' hooves trampled on the hollow brick-paved road, making an extremely crisp sound.

"Captain Berkeley, wait!" Roy rode up to the Berkeley Chief, turned over and dismounted, and stopped the Berkeley Chief.

"What's wrong? Roy, have you changed your mind? I'm going to come back to Padstow. There was a glimmer of hope in the eyes of the head of the Berkeley regiment.

Roy smiled awkwardly and said, "How is that possible! You can also see how I can leave the city of the plateau at this time! As he spoke, he pointed to the headhunters who were digging ditches under the mound.

"Captain Berkeley, although I can't go with you to Padstow City to form a half-blood elf guard, but I think of someone who can help you in this matter, don't leave in a hurry, I'll help you ask ...... first"

Roy said to the head of the Berkeley regiment.

Thinking of the head of Berkeley who had traveled thousands of miles to the Pagisto Plateau to ask for his help, Roy knew that this matter must be imminent.

The head of Berkeley stopped, his eyes blazing at Roy......

……

Reshander had been living in the city of the plateau for the past few days, and his caravan had brought in a large amount of supplies from the city of Padusto, most of which were for the supply of the mine guards.

Because Roy is in control of the plateau mine, most of the supplies of the mine guard group he formed on the plateau are currently prepared by himself.

The Silver Pegasus Legion only provided standard armament materials, and Roy also spent money to buy these materials.

Some of these supplies were procured directly from Padestor and some were shipped from Castletown.

The main reason why Reshander wanted to stay in the city of the plateau was that Roy wanted him to go to Padstow and bring back some of the scarce building materials here, such as rope nets, locks, artisan shovels, and so on.

In addition, after each long journey, it is customary for Rexander to repair for a few days before setting off again......

There is a special warehouse area in the Plateau City, which is a special place to store supplies and supplies, and next door is the barracks of the Mine Guard Regiment, and there are currently nearly 7,000 half-blood elf warriors stationed in the Plateau City.

Roy walked into the small courtyard where Reshander lived and saw that the yard was full of blankets, and Reisander was sitting in the courtyard checking some accounts.

Roy walked straight over, came to Lessander and sat down opposite him, and asked Lessander, who was settling the accounts:

"Reshander, what do you think about the formation of a half-blood elven guard in Padstow right now?"

Reisander lifted his weather-beaten face, he now looked older than most half-blood elves, and his skin was slightly rough, but his eyes shone with wisdom, and he had a faint smile on his face:

"Boss, do you just want my opinion, or are you planning to do something else......?"

Roy touched his nose a little embarrassed and said to Reshander:

"You also know that there is a lot of change within the Silver Pegasus Legion now, and the chief Lucius was just dismissed two days ago, which has caused the situation in Padstow to become very chaotic.

The new Archon of Paddestow City needs to improve the situation while forming a half-blood elven guard.

Forehead...... I just thought that we should give this trusted archon a little help and help him support a half-blood elf guard, which will also increase the half-blood elves' voice in Padstow City! ”

Reisander looked at Roy: "So, Boss Roy, are you going to Padstow?" ”

"I'm going to keep an eye on the city of the plateau, and go to the bay of Sun Island by the way, and solve all the problems of the fish-man spirits there!" Roy said, "So, I want to ask you to go to Padstow City and help the Berkeley Captain form a five-thousand-man half-blood elf guard group." ”

Reisander's eyes widened, staring at Roy, and he asked in a low voice, "So you threw this troublesome thing at me?" ”

Roy thought that Reisander didn't want to take care of it......

But then. Lei Shande approached Roy's ear and muttered in a low voice, "If the leader of the Half-Blood Elf Guard Regiment formed can be a half-blood elf, it is estimated that this matter can almost be done!" ”

Sure enough, the half-blood elves still care more about who is their top boss......

With such a promise from Reshande, Roy hurriedly said:

"That's great, I'm going to contact the head of Berkeley......"

……

In fact, there were not many options left for the head of the Berkeley regiment in this matter, and he had to deal with these things as well as possible in the early days of his tenure.

The situation in Paddestow City is still chaotic at the moment, so he needs to rush back to Paddestow City as soon as possible.

Roy proposed to form a half-blood elf guard, but the leader of the guard group must be a half-blood elf, and the Berkeley commander agreed without any hesitation.

Then Roy took Reisander to meet with the head of Berkeley.

"Captain Berkeley, I'll bring you here, you two have a good talk!" The Roys were still outside the room, but voices came in......

The head of the Berkeley regiment hurriedly stepped up to meet him, and saw Reisander at a glance, before he said, "Didn't Captain Reisander specifically transport supplies for you?" ”

"That's right, Reshander has some connections with many half-blood elves on the side of Padstow City, and if he comes forward, it shouldn't be too difficult to form a half-blood elf guard group."

Roy recommended Reisander to the head of the Berkeley regiment.

After a whole morning of talking between Reisander and the head of the Berkeley regiment, an agreement was reached to a satisfactory to both sides.

The head of Berkeley was in a hurry to return to Padstow, so Rexander immediately gave up his short vacation in the city of the plateau and took a large pack team to Paddestow City full of magical herbs.

……

On the third day after Commander Berkeley left Plateau City, Roy led a force of two thousand half-blood elven warriors from Plateau City and traveled south through the Sudasso Mountains to the southern part of the Plateau.

At the Second Spinel Mine, Roy managed to muster together a thousand half-blood elven warriors, and then, led by a group of griffin cavalry from Kaka, he left the Pagisto Plateau and headed for Sun Island Bay on the south side of the Griffin Barrier Mountains.

Sun Island Bay is located south of the Griffon Barrier Mountains, and the fastest way for troops to enter the bay is through Pass Three......

Obviously, this is not realistic, and the Pagisto Plateau is located at the western end of the Griffon Barrier Mountains, and it is necessary to reach the town of Barrier if you want to climb the third pass.

Following the route provided by Kaka, Roy could take his army around from the west side of the Griffon Fortress Mountains.

Although there will be a fault area hundreds of kilometers long after bypassing the Barrier Mountains, at least there is no need for Half-Blood Elven warriors to climb the mountains......

Blocking the footsteps of the elven warriors is just a moat, and with the help of the griffin cavalry, it is actually much easier to build a ladder on this moat that continues to extend downwards than to climb over the barrier mountains.
