Chapter 516 517.Legion High-Level Meeting

Roy did not expect that the Partington portal, which had been banned for six years, would be unblocked at this time.

In order to better manage the mixed-blood elves on the Partington plane, the Silver Pegasus Army blocked the portal from the Partington plane to the Elf Continent...

In the past few years, the economy of the Partington plane has been deteriorating, but the Silver Pegasus Legion has not unlocked this portal.

Now, the magic herbal medicine market on the Elf Continent is getting hotter and hotter, and the Silver Pegasus Legion controls the mid-to-high-level magic herbal medicines in the entire plane.

If it weren't for the magic herbal business in Partington's plane that has been profitable, the Silver Pegasus Legion would have been in financial crisis after the naval battle on the Queen Igwene Islands.

Unblocking the portal at this time is equivalent to actively distributing the big cake of Partington plane to others...

Roy estimates that his junior magic herbal business will be affected to some extent:

"Is the ban finally going to be lifted?"

The head of the logistics team nodded and said:

"It's not the magic herb that's causing the trouble. Many nobles have heard that the Partington plane is rich in magic herb, and they have been asking the Legion's top brass to open the plane. The day before yesterday, the ruling of the Buenos Silver Moon Elf Elders Council was passed, ordering the Legion to open the plane at the end of the year. The plane portal has been opened before, so you have to be prepared."

The head of the logistics team told Roy the news, naturally hoping that Roy could control the magic herbal trade on the Pagisto Plateau.

Roy nodded.

Once the plane portal is unsealed, some trading firms will definitely enter Padstow City to compete for the magic herb business...

As the governor of the Pagisto Plateau, Roy's control over the plateau is unquestionable.

As long as Roy can support the Legion Trading Company a little bit, the medium and high-level magic herbs on the plateau will definitely flow into the hands of the Silver Pegasus Legion Trading Company.

In fact, Roy was quite excited when he heard that the plane portal was unsealed.

Although the magical herbal cake is destined to be divided some, it also means that the mixed elves on the Elf Continent can freely enter the Partington plane...

This is a good thing.

…

Roy passed through the portal overnight and took a boat back to Castletown City at Partington Island Pier.

He discovered that Castletown City and Padstow City were actually not that far apart. If passing through the portal went smoothly, he would only need to sleep one night on the Silver Pegasus Legion's supply ship.

When daybreak comes, the supply ship will arrive at Castleton City.

Roy returned to Castleton City this time because he wanted to hire a second-level powerhouse from the mercenary union in Castleton City to deal with the Sea Beast Priest on Sun Island.

In Castleton City, the mixed-blood elves living in the lower city rarely become second-level powerhouses.

So Roy planned to ask Claire to go to the Mercenary Guild to hire a second-level strongman who could defeat the Sea Beast Priest.

Roy didn't expect that arriving in Castletown happened to be the last day of the semester at Elf Academy. Starting tomorrow, the students of Elf Academy will have a two-month vacation.

However, according to past practice, the Elf Academy should hold a final dance tonight.

Roy walked from the pier to the intersection of Brown Street and saw several young mixed-blood elf students getting out of the long carriage.

As they walked, they discussed the dance at night.

Roy didn't rush to find Claire.

This time should be Claire's busiest time.

At every final dance, Claire would play a few pieces of music. At this time, he should be preparing to attend the dance, so Roy didn't want to disturb him at this time.

After the rainy season ends in Castletown, the cold wind blowing from the frozen sea will quickly cool Castletown's climate.

The cold sea breeze blew on the sea, and a light mist evaporated from the sea.

Standing by the Dane River, looking at the sea outside Castletown Port, Roy suddenly realized that he had not paid attention to the sea in Castletown Port for a long time.

Since it is not the rainy season, the water level of the Danne River has dropped significantly.

There is still a row of large ships moored at the pier in the deep water area of ​​the port. Almost all of these ships are flying the Green Empire Sword and Shield Gripen flag.

Roy returns home.

The house was cleaned very well, but Ms. Belinda still hadn't returned. Moira and Sabrina should have helped clean it.

There was no one in the yard next door, either Sabrina or Moira was home.

Ms. Jillian is not here either. She should be in the fish market at this time...

…

There is a Tree of Life on the main island of Queen Egwene Island. This is one of the reasons why the Silver Moon Elves insist on occupying this island.

This Tree of Life is located halfway up the island, and its canopy covers one-fifth of Queen Island.

It is this tree of life that exudes vitality here that makes the three main islands of the Queen Egwene Islands look green...

Building a tree house on the trunk of the Tree of Life is a tradition passed down by the Silver Moon elves.

The headquarters of the Silver Pegasus Legion is set up on this tree of life. With the end of the Queen Igwene Islands War, the Legion has been continuously absorbing the dividends brought by the victory of the war in the past two months.

In the conference room on the top floor of the legion headquarters, three legion executives were sitting around a round table, looking at a hand-drawn map.

What was drawn on the map happened to be the entire Pagisto Plateau, as well as the hills and mountains in the southern part of the plateau, as well as the valley between the Griffin Barrier Mountains and the southern foothills of the plateau.

At the end of this valley is the narrow Qianren Mountains, and further south is the vast Sun Island Bay.

Earl Swinburne stood silently in front of the round table. He pursed his lips and looked at the large territory depicted on the map without saying a word.

On his left is Count Macaulay, the deputy commander of the Silver Pegasus Legion.

Earl Macaulay looks very young, with fair cheeks without any beard, but his wise eyes make people have to reconsider his age.

The third high-ranking member of the legion is Count Reginald. He usually likes to wear priest robes and is an outer temple elder in the Temple of the Moon.

Count Reginald rarely participates in the affairs of the legion. Only during wars will he apply to the Temple of the Moon for the support of the priests...

If behind Earl Swinburne stood the royal family of the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom and His Majesty Ans Ayer, then behind Earl Macaulay stood the Silver Moon Elf nobles.

Behind Count Reginald is the Temple of the Moon...

The three earls were discussing the issue of opening the Partington plane portal. This issue had been bothering them for a long time, and now they had to make a decision.

"Since you can't withstand the pressure from above, then just open the portal."

Count Macaulay said: "As long as we have high-end magic herbs in our hands and establish contact with the herbal traders here, the market for magic herbs will still be in our hands!"

"Once we open the portal, a group of business groups will inevitably flow in. If we want to maintain the competitiveness of the magic herbal trade, in addition to attracting those magic herbal traders, we also need to add a threshold for all those entering and exiting the portal. All supplies must pay commodity tax!”

Deputy Commander Macaulay continued.

He said this because he wanted the Silver Moon Elf nobles in the legion to be competitive when doing magic herbal medicine business in the Partington plane...

Earl Swinburne thought about His Majesty Ansel's private letter and hesitated for a moment before saying:

"In recent months, the policy of using half-blood elves to govern mixed-blood elves in the Partington plane has been quite effective. Once the portal is opened in the Partington plane, it will not only attract a group of business groups to enter Partington, but also other When the mixed-blood elves from the area come here, as long as they can attract the restless group of mixed-blood elves on the Elven Continent to the Partington plane, the conflict between the mixed-blood elves and the Silver Moon elves can be greatly reduced."

In fact, in recent years, the boundaries between the upper and lower districts of Castletown have become more clearly defined, and conflicts between Silver Moon elves and mixed-blood elves have become more frequent in the city. Many mixed-blood elves are fighting against The Silver Moon elves were dissatisfied with their various privileges.

This kind of conflict occurs in almost every elven city.

In order to ease the relationship between the Silver Moon elves and the mixed-blood elves, His Majesty Zhanris Ansel came up with the idea of ​​luring the restless ones among the mixed-blood elves to other planes.

Apparently the Partington plane is a good place to go...

If it weren't for His Majesty Ans Ayer's thoughts, Earl Swinburne felt that the Partington plane portal would never be opened at this time.

The three of them walked around the map, looking at it and discussing it in whispers from time to time.

Among the three earls, Earl Swinburne and Earl Macaulay both approved of this plan, and Earl Reginald said nothing more.

The date for opening the portal is set at the beginning of next month...

After discussing the matter, Lord Swinburne said:

"Let's discuss the next thing, which is still on the Partington plane. Currently, Captain Roy is leading the mine guard group to be stationed in Sun Island Bay. Currently, the Partington plane has opened up a vast area! "

"In the south of the Pagisto Plateau, there is a valley between the west part of the Griffin Barrier Mountains. At the end of the valley is the Thousand People Mountain Range. Going further south...it is said that this is a natural fishing ground, which is used by the local mixed elves. They call it Sun Island Bay.”

"Currently, there is a sea beast priest on Sun Island. Partington hopes that we can send a second-level expert to get rid of the sea beast priest."

Earl Swinburne glanced at Earl Macaulay and said to him:

"Count Macaulay, let you arrange this matter. Let's see who happens to be free. Go to the Partington plane and get rid of the sea beast priest..."

"Okay, Earl Swinburne! Although I don't agree with mobilizing second-level experts to go to the Partington plane, but since it is your order, I will do it!" Earl Macaulay said with a serious face, you are not polite. said.

Earl Swinburne looked at Earl Macaulay, trying to find in him a reason to resist the military order.

Earl Macaulay frowned and said:

"In the Partington plane, Commander Roy has grown from a non-staff guide to the governor of the Pagisto Plateau in just two years. With such a terrifying promotion speed, I'm thinking if he If we occupy Sun Island Bay again, can we still let him continue to serve as the manager of Sun Island Bay?"

"But once Sun Island Bay is occupied, can we send other managers to manage Sun Island Bay?"

"Captain Roy is currently under investigation by the investigation team, so I hope that the war on the Sun Island Bay side will slow down."

Earl Swinburne cast his gaze on Earl Macaulay and Earl Reginald, and was silent for a moment before saying:

"If you want to go to Sun Island Bay, I can ask Roy's mine guard group to retreat to Pagisto Plateau..."

"..."

The two earls were immediately silenced by Earl Swinburne...

Count Macaulay can mobilize some troops, but at this time, no Silver Moon Elf war group is willing to go to the Partington plane.

And Count Reginald will not mobilize the priest group to enter the battlefield, especially since the Partington plane is full of mixed-blood elves, and it is impossible for the priest group to go...

The two Earls had no interest in Sun Island Bay, so Earl Swinburne spread his hands and said helplessly:

"So if no one is willing to conquer Sun Island, let's let the Plateau Mine Guard Group occupy it."

A meeting will take at least half a day to complete.

Walking out of the conference hall, Earl Swinburne heard someone chasing after him quickly and stopped.

He turned around and saw Count Macaulay.

Earl Macaulay said breathlessly:

"The recent war in the Partington plane has spread widely in the Elf Continent. Many mixed-blood elves will privately talk about Boss Roy's rescue of the mixed-blood elf mining slaves. Once the portal is opened, a large number of mixed-blood elves will pour in. In the Partington plane, Roy's influence in the Partington plane will further increase. Although he is managing the mines on the Pagisto Plateau for us now, we can wait until he adds Sun Island Bay to his territory. The territory he controls in the Partington plane is more than that guy Alves, and all the mines are concentrated in his hands. Swinburne, you don’t have to worry about him becoming the second Asian Elvis?"

Lord Swinburne smiled slightly and said:

"All supplies for the Mine Guard Corps need to be supplied by the Silver Pegasus Legion. In addition, this army is destined to be restricted to the Partington plane. Therefore, as the future star of the Silver Pegasus Legion, we can only He needs to understand these stakes so that he can be a sharp sword and run Partington well for us."

When Earl Macaulay heard what Earl Swinburne said, he still felt a little uneasy and said:

"I just hope it doesn't cause us any trouble..."

The two Earls walked out of the conference hall and were immediately surrounded by several adjutants.

There are still many things that need to be dealt with in the aftermath of the naval battle on the Queen Egwene Islands, especially the movements of the gray dwarf bandits, which have always been a special concern for the Silver Pegasus Legion.
