Path of light

Chapter 370 371. Companions and Monitors

Roy stood next to a dark blue rock in the mine and asked several dark moon elves who came over:

"Now there is an opportunity for you to look at the blue sky outside the mine and breathe the cold wind blowing from the northern part of the Pagisto Plateau. Although it is only for a few days, I wonder if you are willing to accept it?"

The Dark Moon elves looked at each other, and one of the Dark Moon elves took the initiative to ask:

"All of us?"

Roy stretched out the ten fingers of both hands and said to these Dark Moon Elves: "I only need the ten best Dark Moon Elf warriors."

The Dark Moon Elf has obviously become the spokesperson for all Dark Moon Elf. He looked to the left and right and saw that everyone wanted to know more, so he asked: "...can we find out more about it... What kind of mission is it performing?”

Roy didn't hide anything and said directly: "This time I plan to take ten Dark Moon Elf warriors to conduct an investigation underground in the first mine."

The Dark Moon Elf was a little confused, tilted his head and asked, "Is that all you do?"

His words also have another meaning: 'If you only do these things, do you need to call us? ’

"That's indeed the case. There is also a group of Dark Moon Elf warriors underground in the First Mine, but so far, I have not established contact with them and gained their trust." Roy waved his hands and said frankly.

The Dark Moon elves once again communicated with their eyes and said nothing.

At this time, more Dark Moon elves gathered here, and everyone seemed to know that Roy was coming...

After a slight pause, the Dark Moon Elf continued to ask Roy: "Lord Roy, do you want us to help you convince the Dark Moon Elf in the First Mine?"

Roy smiled faintly, waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, you don't need to do this. I invited you to the No. 1 Mine. I just want you to help me deal with the sudden conflict underground. I just want to find someone. A temporary mercenary group, so I need the best warriors among you."

He saw that these Dark Moon elves were obviously a little moved, and continued:

"But before you go out, you need to sign a contract. When I take you out of the mine, I will naturally bring you back. Unless you have the ability to prove that your sentence has expired, you will be free. Of course, our The contract is limited to this mission.”

After hearing Roy's request, the Dark Moon Elf began to believe that what Roy said was true.

"That's no problem."

The leading Dark Moon Elf agreed, but unfortunately Roy forgot his name.

Speaking of these Dark Moon elves, they have really changed a lot since they were punished by Roy in the mine.

Everyone started discussing in low voices, and Roy said loudly again:

"In addition... I want to announce something. At present, I have contacted the Dark Moon Elf friends in Enochous City. It will not take long to determine your identity and sentence. Of course, this requires the personal information you give me. The information is true. When the time comes, if any Dark Moon Elf present has completed his sentence, I promise... to give you your freedom."

When the Dark Moon elves heard Roy officially announcing the matter, they quickly shouted to Roy:

"Lord Roy, you must mean what you say!"

The Darkmoon Elf looked excited.

At this time, more Dark Moon elves gathered around...

Roy raised his right hand, palm forward, and solemnly said to the group of Dark Moon elves:

"During the period when I am the owner of the second mine, I will definitely keep my word. But you must also settle down in the mine. I will change your current living environment to the greatest extent, I promise!"

When the Dark Moon Elves heard Roy's promise, they became excited. Everyone was talking about following Roy to the First Mine. Some Dark Moon Elf warriors have expressed their willingness to follow Roy to the First Mine. .

"So many elves want to follow you out for a visit. Choosing who to go out is also a difficult problem. Otherwise, let's all choose it publicly!" the leading Dark Moon Elf said to everyone.

The other Darkmoon elves agreed.

Roy was actually also curious about how the Dark Moon elves in the well were publicly elected. He stood aside and watched the Dark Moon elves continue to gather. The number of Dark Moon elves waiting for them was almost the same, and the public election officially began. .

No matter what the Dark Moon elves do, they feel that there must be a sense of ritual.

The leading Dark Moon Elf greeted everyone. The Dark Moon Elf warriors who were willing to go out to perform this task stood together, and the other Dark Moon Elf stood opposite.

Roy counted carefully and found that there were more than fifty Dark Moon elves who were willing to follow Roy and take a look outside the mine, accounting for almost half of the total number of Dark Moon elves below the mine.

Only the Dark Moon elves who have decided not to participate in this mission have the right to vote.

There is no need to vote and count votes. Everyone only needs to shout out the names of ten Dark Moon Elf warriors in turn. Only the Dark Moon Elf with the highest voice can stand up.

Seems fair... Roy thought to himself.

More than a hundred Dark Moon elves were crowded into a mine, and even the air became a little turbid.

As a bystander, Roy just stood quietly at the entrance of the cave.

Those Darkmoon elves who had the right to vote whispered about who to recommend.

The leading Dark Moon Elf walked out of the crowd again.

He stood in the middle of the cave and said loudly to everyone:

"Let me mention a name first. It was he who led us to defeat the group of gray rats. It was he who drove those gray rats into the narrow holes they dug themselves...Timothy!"

A well-proportioned Dark Moon Elf walked out from among the Dark Moon Elfs with a faint smile...

The Dark Moon elves on the opposite side immediately shouted:

"Timothy..."

"Timothy..."

"Timothy is the most qualified..."

Almost all the Darkmoon elves were shouting Timothy's name.

It can be seen that this dark moon elf warrior named Timothy has a high prestige in everyone's mind.

The leading Dark Moon Elf shouted again:

"There is another name... I have to say that he was an outstanding assassin when he was in the Evernight Forest. It was he who gave us a new understanding of professional assassins, and it was he who taught us the true meaning of professional assassins. For his assassination skills, he is...Tennyson."

This time, the Dark Moon elves hesitated for a moment, and then everyone shouted the name together:

"Tennyson!"

Sure enough, voices of doubt immediately appeared among the Dark Moon elves:

"After this guy Tennyson goes out, will he come back?"

Someone even shouted: "Tennyson, please don't get us into trouble. We have just had a few more comfortable days."

Of course, Tennyson also had many supporters, and they all said:

"Everyone, please don't underestimate people, okay?"

In short, the cheers overshadowed the boos. Obviously, this Tennyson is also a great guy, but he is also a restless guy. Roy can remember his name.

As the names of the dark moon elves were shouted out one by one, some of the names of the dark moon elves were cheered by everyone, and some of the names of the dark moon elves were booed by everyone.

In short, several Dark Moon Elf warriors were subsequently elected, including Fielding, Quenir, Woodrow, Bessemer... Roy couldn't remember the last names.

Soon, ten Dark Moon Elf warriors gathered together. These Dark Moon Elf warriors seemed very excited, sitting or standing around Roy.

Roy took the initiative to clapped his hands and said to the ten Dark Moon Elf warriors: "You are all elected by everyone. You will come out of the mine with me in a moment!"

When Roy said this, the Dark Moon elves around him also became quiet:

"Let me talk about my requirements first. During the mission, I need you to obey my command completely. No one else can escape privately. Once I find someone escaping the team privately, I will try my best to capture you. In addition, I will not If I trust any of you again, I will never act like this again.”

No matter what these ten Dark Moon elves were thinking, they all raised their hands and swore: "We hereby promise to the Dark Moon Goddess that we will never run away from the team and never abandon our partners."

Roy nodded and glanced at the faces of these Dark Moon elves again.

Then he took these ten Dark Moon Elf warriors and left the mine.

…

This may be the first time this group of Dark Moon elves see the sunshine outside after entering the mine...

At Roy's instruction, the ten Dark Moon Elf warriors all blindfolded their eyes, and then Roy took them to the restaurant, made everyone sit on the bench, and arranged some breadfruit and lemon tea for them.

They sat in the dining room filling their bellies with breadfruit while slowly adjusting to the bright light outside the mine.

Almost all the Dark Moon elves squinted their eyes. They looked at the restaurant curiously, and even kept stroking the smooth and clean tabletop in front of them with their hands.

When the cook brought over the cut breadfruit and placed exquisite ceramic plates in front of them, the eyes of the Dark Moon elves were full of excitement.

They had been away from the elf society for too long, and the difficult days in the mines even made them forget their original lives.

Now I finally have some memories. First I was sentenced, then imprisoned, and then sold as a mining slave. After decades of living in darkness and hell, it is really not easy to survive...

Now...suddenly, a half-elf kid broke into the well, letting them feel a little bit of the taste of life again, and their long-dried hearts seemed to come to life again.

In fact, the reason and desire in their hearts at this moment are constantly at war. Reason wants to grasp these hard-won things, but desire wants to break free from all constraints and find an opportunity to become a free bird.

However, all the Dark Moon elves are trying their best to suppress their inner excitement.

He gulped down the breadfruit on the plate, poured the lemon tea into his stomach in one breath, and then stared blankly at his companion across from him.

The only elf who can understand what they are thinking right now is probably the companion opposite.

Both a companion and a monitor...
