Chapter 772 773. Dwarf Treasure

Jizena has been asking Roy almost every day these days:

"When can we return to Sun Island Bay?"

Roy's answer is the same:

"Soon, soon, maybe in these few days."

The eight concentration camps for prisoners on the beach hold 36,000 gray dwarf bandits, and the half-blood elf guards have to allocate half of them to guard these gray dwarf prisoners.

Despite this, most of the half-blood elf officers are worried that if the gray dwarf bandits find that their number is less than 10,000, they may overwhelm the mine guards in one wave if a riot breaks out.

The fifteen magic airships are no longer docked at the dock, but hover over Kuei Island day and night. They would rather burn some magic crystals every day than let them become the target of attack by the gray dwarf bandits.

The salvage work of the ships at Kuei Island dock has also been temporarily stopped. The four three-masted sailing ships salvaged from the sea are now all stranded on the beach.

These gray dwarves built a row of catapults on the beach, with a number of about forty. These catapults are about ten meters high and are made of some square wood and metal connectors. There is a bag of stones on one side of the catapult. When this bag of stones falls from a high place, it will throw the stone ball on the other end out. If it can hit the ship on the sea, it will cause considerable damage to the ship, but the premise is that it can hit it.

I have to say that the accuracy of this thing is really a bit disappointing...

In addition to the forty immovable catapults on the beach, there is also a row of cannons. When Roy saw these simple cannons carved with magic patterns, he thought he had returned to medieval Europe for a moment.

This thing needs to be filled with gunpowder in the barrel, and then the iron ball is loaded into the barrel along the muzzle, and finally the fuse is ignited.

Roy even doubted whether this guy could hit the enemy.

There are more than a hundred such cannons near the beach, and each cannon has four solid wooden wheels under it, which can barely be pushed.

Roy had a plan. He wanted to transport these artillery pieces to the mountain arrow towers outside the Sun Island Bay to defend against the dark faceless men coming from the western seas. The range of this thing is much longer than that of the whale hunting crossbow.

For the time being, he just had this idea. After all, other people can't use this thing except the gray dwarves.

In addition, the biggest gain from occupying Kui Island was the occupation of an underground castle that could accommodate 40,000 gray dwarf bandits. The underground castle built by the gray dwarf bandits has a very complete metallurgical forging workshop.

Several large magic furnaces are close to the magma underground river. As long as the metal ingots from the Partington plane are transported here, some metal parts can be forged.

This group of gray dwarf bandits are quite poor. Roy didn't find many magic crystals from them. The magic crystals on all the gray dwarf bandits put together did not exceed 100,000.

However, Kuei Island has stockpiled a large amount of war supplies, including a large amount of heavy chain mail that is only suitable for dwarves to wear. Of course, the dwarves' weapons are also heavy and short, which is of no use to the elves.

The dwarves are good at making magic devices, but Roy did not find anything in this regard in the underground city of Kuei Island.

If they did not have magic furnaces and sophisticated heavy chain mail, Roy even felt that they were no different from the orcs in the north of the continent. The underground castle was too shabby...

The gray dwarves are not the kind of dwarves who are proficient in forging in the dwarf kingdom.

They are born robbers who like to burn, kill and plunder, and have a bad reputation in the northern continent.

For a long time, the gray dwarves' territory has not bordered the elf kingdom. They are separated by the vast and desolate Mensa Plain. This plain belongs to the territory of the orc tribe. The gray dwarves cannot beat the strong and brave tribal orcs on land.

Therefore, after their homes fell one after another, they immediately ran to the gap between the Naga Sea Clan and the Elf Kingdom to survive...

The gray dwarves are greedy and cunning, cruel and bloodthirsty, and have a strong desire to attack, but they also have a big disadvantage, that is, they are suspicious by nature, and they will easily retreat when they meet those opponents who are very strong...

This time, Roy's mine guards only took one day and one night to scare and subdue these gray dwarf robbers.

Mainly because the half-blood elf guards relied on sophisticated magic weapons and equipment, coupled with the blessing magic of the human priests of the Knights Templar, these gray dwarves had no way to deal with it.

The gray dwarf Doyle walked into the camp barefoot.

He wore simple linen clothes and rubbed his wrists as he walked. After entering the camp, he looked around and observed the situation in the camp.

A shooting range was built at the entrance of the camp. Many half-blood elf warriors were wearing light leather armor, carrying bows and arrows, standing next to the shooting range, waiting in line to practice archery...

Doyle found that even if these half-blood elf guards were not wearing those full-covered mithril heavy armor, they were wearing brown sheepskin light armor, and the daggers on their belts were shining.

The distance between the targets in the shooting range was as far as 200 meters away. In Doyle's eyes, the targets could only be vaguely seen. For these half-blood elf guards, the arrows hitting the target were just qualified.

After passing the shooting range, Doyle quickly gave up those lively ideas in his mind.

Soon he was taken to the largest tent in the camp by the elf guards. Roy and several mixed-blood elf officers were gathered around the sea chart, talking about the situation in the surrounding sea areas.

In fact, there are several islands in the sea around Kui Island that are also occupied by gray dwarf bandits. However, due to insufficient troops, Roy cannot take care of the gray dwarf bandits on those islands.

Since it was impossible to use the existing army to encircle and suppress the gray dwarf bandits, we could only strengthen the defenses on Kui Island.

Currently, the Siren Warriors are responsible for patrolling the surrounding waters, but they will leave Kui Island soon. Once the portal between Kui Island and Padstow City is repaired, Jiezena and this group of Siren Warriors will leave as soon as possible. here.

After all, the war in Sun Island Bay is also relatively tight. The Krakens can support Roy in capturing Kui Island at such a critical moment, and they are taking a lot of risks.

Hearing footsteps coming from the entrance of the tent, Roy raised his head and saw Doyle being brought in by four mixed-blood elf guards. He put down the charcoal in his hand and waved to let the other mixed-blood elf officers leave.

"Doyle, I remember you told me that you know information about a treasure. As long as I let go of the gray dwarf bandits on Kui Island, you will tell me the information about the treasure. Now my promise has come true, so It’s your turn to tell me about the treasure.”

Roy stood in front of Doyle. Doyle's height only reached Roy's chest, but his waist, as thick as a barrel, could hold four Roys.

"As you said, I have been waiting for your call, my dear sir."

"You can call me Boss Roy." Roy motioned for Doyle to sit down at the table and handed him a cup of lemon tea.

Doyle blinked his black bean-like eyes and smiled humbly at Roy. Even the wrinkles on his face were full of hypocrisy...

"Boss Roy, have you heard of the name Johnny Relf, ​​the captain of the Sea Wolf?"

"What?" Roy asked with a frown.

Doyle put his big hand on the chart on the table and said:

"He was once the most famous pirate in the nearby waters. He was different from us. We are outsiders who moved from the north in the past ten years. He was the pirate born and raised in this waters. He was at his most glorious. , owns dozens of pirate ships in this sea area, and usually not only robs the Naga Sea Tribe, but also robs elven merchant ships. In addition, he is also a slave trader, and he has a very safe route in his hands that can transport all kinds of slaves. To the Grimm Empire."

"..."

Roy was speechless.

In fact, the Sea Wolf is still parked on the beach on the west side of Castleton Harbor, and has now been converted into the Black Pearl by Roy.

"He has been a pirate here for more than two hundred years. During this period, he trafficked a large number of slaves, and the wealth he gained was hidden near this sea area. In fact, we will dig an underground castle on Kui Island, which is also related to this It has something to do with Captain Relf. In fact, in the past few years, in addition to trying to capture the Queen Egwene Islands, we have also been looking for Captain Relf’s treasure.”

"We even know that his treasure may be hidden in this area, but it has never been found." Doyle said to Roy.

"I heard that Captain Ralph's treasure map was left in the elf world. You can try to find out about the treasure map everywhere. I heard Elder Augustus said that the treasure can support our group. The gray dwarves who escaped from the north reopened a new homeland..."

"Now that I am your prisoner, I will tell you this secret."

The gray dwarf Doyle stopped here. He was holding the teacup in his hand, waiting for Roy to ask more about the dwarf treasure.

But Roy sat in his chair, lost in thought, and didn't speak for a long time.

When Roy came to his senses, he waved to the mixed-blood elf guard standing aside and ordered: "Send Doyle back to the prisoner-of-war concentration camp, and give him a bottle of rum as a reward."

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

After saying that, he stood up, walked outside the tent and looked at the sea in the distance. At this moment, his face seemed to be filled with memories.

Doyle happily followed the mixed elf guard out of the camp, and before leaving, he took the initiative to say to Roy: "Boss Roy, if you have any news you want to know, please feel free to come to me, I will be waiting for your call at any time. "

Roy ignored him and just stared at the sea in the distance in a daze...

Several mixed-blood elves quickly took the gray dwarf Doyle away.

Miss Tiffany and Moira walked back from the beach talking and laughing. When they saw Roy standing in a daze outside the tent, Miss Tiffany couldn't help but ask:

"Roy, what on earth did you have in mind to stand here stupidly?"

Tiffany woke up Roy who was in deep thought. Roy had a complicated look on his face and said to Miss Tiffany:

"Tiffany, do you remember Johnny Ralph?"

"..."

Miss Tiffany stood stunned on the spot.

…

A rift in time and space appeared on the beach of Kuidao in the afternoon. The moment it appeared, Oppa walked out of the portal.

The great magician Grimes followed behind in great embarrassment, and got out before the space rift disappeared.

He stabilized his staggering body, looked around casually, and immediately discovered the iconic active volcano on Kui Island. He raised his thumbs to Opea and praised:

"The positioning on your chart is pretty good. At least it didn't lead us into the sea. Just now, I was ready to fly directly on the magic harpoon handle."

Opeia looked at the Great Magician Grams with disdain, twisted her sexy waist and walked a few steps on the beach, then took out the magic broom and rode on it. After flying into the air, a winding coastline soon came into view...

Opeia not only saw the prisoner-of-war concentration camp, but also saw the harbor of Que Island and the magic airships floating in the sky.

She first chose the magic airships flying into the sky, and the Great Magician Grams followed closely and flew with Opeia on a magic airship.

In fact, he noticed the prisoner-of-war concentration camps on the seashore in mid-air. When he arrived on the magic airship, he found a half-blood elf captain and asked, "Have you all successfully occupied this place?"

"Yes. Your Excellency the Great Magician Grams!" Captain Rodhart replied respectfully.

"Do you know me?" The Great Magician Grams asked, staring at the half-blood elf captain.

"Boss Roy took you on my ship..."

"No wonder!" Great Magician Grams asked directly: "Where is Roy now?"

"Boss should be in the camp on the island now, you can go to the camp to have a look..."

Rodhart walked to the side of the ship and pointed to the dense forest on the edge of the island.

Great Magician Grams called out to Oppaia standing on the deck, and then rode the magic broom to fly to Kui Island.

Opeia also followed Grams without saying a word. Soon the two great magicians found the half-blood elf camp hidden at the edge of the woods. Great Magician Grams rode the magic broom directly into the camp to look for Roy.

...

Opeya hovered over the beach of Que Island and wandered around several prisoner-of-war concentration camps. She was surprised to see densely packed gray dwarf prisoners sitting obediently on the beach of the concentration camps...

Some half-blood elf guards discovered Opeya flying in the sky. Seeing that she was an elf magician, they did not draw their bows and arrows to aim at her.

Instead, they hurriedly reported to their superiors...

Opeya did not stay over the prisoner-of-war concentration camp. She circled around the dock again. In recent days, the wind and waves were calm and the sea water was clear. Opeya saw at a glance that the seabed near the dock was full of sunken ships.

At this moment, she had a new understanding of Roy.

The young half-elf guide who led the way on the magic caravan turned out to be such an excellent elf general...
