Chapter 519 520. Promotion

Claire has a wide network of contacts in Castletown City, and she also has some friends in the mercenary union.

Soon some news came from the mercenary union:

In fact, there are not many second-level masters registered in the Castletown Mercenary Union. Most of the second-level masters of the Silver Moon Elf were recruited by the military and became members of the regular Silver Moon Elf army. The rest The powerful second-level elves will also be recruited by the upper elf nobles.

Therefore, there are only a handful of second-level experts who can form mercenary groups. This type of mercenary group undertakes a wide range of tasks, and is also very popular among the mercenary unions.

Almost all of the mercenary groups with second-level experts are performing tasks outside.

Currently, there is no mercenary group in the Castletown Mercenary Union that agrees with Roy's request...

Even so, Claire still heard a piece of news from someone inside the mercenary union.

There is a second-level expert who currently lives in the lower town of Castletown.

He was originally a member of a mercenary group, but that adventure group has now been completely disbanded, and the second-level powerhouse is living a life of intoxication in the city.

Claire heard the news and ran to Brown Street to find Roy.

The two of them were going to the second-level strongman's residence and asked him for help...

According to the address written on the note that Claire took out, Roy found that the address above was actually the pub at the end of Brown Street, which left Roy somewhat speechless.

Roy still clearly remembered that when he was working part-time as a guide seven years ago, he took a group of sailors to the tavern. The group of sailors killed Jefferson in the tavern and then escaped...

From then on, Roy almost never came to this pub.

Now he and Claire were standing at the door of the tavern again. For a moment, Roy felt like he was in another world, and those long-dusted memories seemed to be slowly awakening again.

"What's wrong, Roy, let's go in!" Claire stood at the door of the pub, looking at the simple door number and the old wooden corridor, and said to Roy.

"Okay!" Roy quickly sorted out his still messy thoughts and agreed.

Passing through the corridor like a covered bridge and walking into the tavern from the terrace, the interior furnishings of this tavern have not changed.

The owner of the tavern has not changed at all. He is still sitting behind the bar and dozing off. There is only one waitress standing at the bar to greet the customers.

"I didn't expect this pub to be so close to your home..."

Claire complained to Roy as she walked.

"I didn't expect that there was actually a Level 2 expert living in seclusion nearby! Haha." Roy laughed dryly. He looked around and saw that the tavern was still so deserted and there were only a handful of drinkers in the tavern.

Roy glanced around casually from the corner of his eye and discovered that Duke, the owner of Brown Street Grocery Store, was actually drinking here.

He was obviously drunk. He was sitting alone in the corner. The wine bottle in front of him was mostly empty. There was also a plate of dried fish on the table.

Boss Duke took a sip from a small glass of rum, squinting his eyes and looking a little comfortable.

Roy stopped and quickly said hello to the Duke boss.

In any case, Boss Duke can be regarded as half of Roy's teacher. He not only taught him how to drive a flying fish boat to the sea, but also taught him how to fish on the beach, which brought him a lot of happiness in his childhood...

Come on, Duke heard Roy's voice and raised his head. When he saw Roy, he opened his eyes slightly. With a hint of drunkenness, he asked Roy to sit down and said to him:

"Roy, long time no see. I heard that you went to the Partington plane to develop?"

"Well, I manage several mines on the plateau for the Silver Pegasus Legion." Roy replied, sitting down opposite Boss Duke, and introduced to Boss Duke: "This is my good friend Wagner Claire. ”

Boss Duke saw that Claire was a Silver Moon Elf, so he just nodded to him and didn't say anything. Instead, he asked Roy:

"I've heard some things coming out of the Partington plane. I heard that some Silver Moon Elf nobles were selling slaves there... and they finally made a big fuss and were wiped out by the Silver Pegasus Legion?"

Roy didn't expect that when news of the Partington plane reached Castletown City, it would become like this.

He quickly told Boss Duke a brief summary of the major events that have occurred in the Partington plane in recent years, including the 'Silver Moon Elf Noble Slave Trade', the oppressed mixed-blood elves riots, and the Silver Pegasus Legion taking the opportunity to go to Paltington. The chaos in the Tinton plane was put down, the naval battle on the Queen Egwene Islands broke out, and the plateau headhunters took the opportunity to take revenge on the mixed elves. In order to resist the headhunters, the mixed elves in the Partington plane formed a guard army, etc.

Almost every event could be told at length, but Roy only briefly introduces it.

Boss Duke listened with some interest. At this time, he had sobered up a little and was drinking a glass of lemon tea with ice cubes...

"So you had such a wonderful time in the Partington plane!" Boss Duke said to Roy with a smile.

Roy smiled bitterly and said: "After all, the Partington plane is not Castletown in the Elven Continent. How can life there be so simple? This time I just encountered a problem, so I wanted to invite someone to the Castletown city." A Level 2 expert is going over there to help."

After saying this, Roy approached the Duke boss and lowered his voice and said to him: "I heard that there is a strong second-level player here, so we came here to try our luck."

The Duke boss opened his eyes and hesitated for a moment before asking: "Um, are you here to see Byron?"

Roy nodded quickly.

He had just entered the tavern, and was still worrying about how to find Byron Thor, whom he had never met before.

Now, Roy heard what Boss Duke said, and immediately asked back: "... Byron Thor, Boss Duke, do you know him?"

Boss Duke curled his lips and snorted: "We have been friends for many years, but if you want to ask him for help, I think you may return disappointed this time. This guy has been in a bad mood recently, often scolding people and getting angry for no reason. It may take some time for him to adjust himself before he can return to normal!"

Roy didn't expect Boss Duke to say this, and hurriedly said:

"Ah! That being said, I still want to try."

"Look, that's..." Boss Duke saw that Roy insisted on seeing Byron Thor, so he could only say to the half-blood elf sitting back to back with him at another table: "Byron, there is a young friend who wants to talk to you!"

...

The half-blood elf looked a little sloppy, with messy hair and a strong smell of alcohol.

He sat in the chair without saying a word, and he had no sense of existence.

If Boss Duke hadn't reminded Roy, Roy wouldn't have even noticed that there was an elf sitting behind Boss Duke.

He drank silently, and seemed to turn a deaf ear to what Boss Duke said.

He didn't even raise his head, and ignored Roy and Claire.

Roy walked over, looked at Claire, and stood in front of Byron Thor and said very formally:

"Hello, Mr. Byron Thor, I am Roy, the mine owner from Pagisto Plateau in the Partington plane. I would like to ask you to help..."

"Go away!"

A short word, bursting out of Byron Duke's mouth, seemed murderous, making Roy have a strong feeling that this guy is a killer who walked out of the battlefield.

Although he is a half-blood elf, the bloodshot eyes under the short hair are full of murderous intent...

Roy took a half step back.

"Byron, where is your demeanor?" Boss Duke's voice came from the side, dissolving Byron Thor's hostility.

Byron Thor smiled coldly and responded: "Buried in the dark place, hehe."

Boss Duke sighed: "You always have to try to come out..."

"Don't bother with me, leave me alone."

Byron Thor grabbed the bottle of wine on the table, stood up and walked out of the tavern.

When Roy and Claire chased out, Byron Thor had already disappeared.

...

Roy didn't expect to come to visit this second-level strongman, but he didn't have time to say a word, and he was turned away.

Claire's face was not very good either. He is now a celebrity in Castletown City. Not only was he ignored by Boss Duke, but Byron Thor didn't even look at him.

Failed to successfully invite this second-level strongman, Roy and Claire could only leave the tavern disappointed.

Before Claire got on the carriage, she said to Roy:

"I'll go ask around with other Silver Moon Elf nobles. I heard that many rank 2 masters are working for them. If that doesn't work... I'll go to the Mercenary Guild in Buenos to hire a rank 2 master. As long as the reward is enough, it should be easier to hire a rank 2 master there."

Roy was also a little depressed. He thought he could get something done with a sum of magic crystals, but he got nothing.

"Remuneration is not a problem!"

"I have to attend a misunderstanding tonight. I'll leave first."

Claire got on the carriage and waved goodbye to Roy.

...

Roy didn't know where these merchants from the Empire merchant ships found out about him, and they were actually standing outside the yard.

A row of carriages was parked by the Dane River opposite.

When Roy walked to the door, these Empire merchants saw Roy and immediately swarmed around him.

They knew that Roy was a junior magic herb merchant in Castletown City, and they greeted Roy warmly as soon as they came up to him:

"Boss Roy, I am a magic herb merchant from the Green Empire. If you have junior magic herbs for sale, please consider us. Our company is looking forward to cooperating with you!"

"Boss Roy, please also consider our company! Our company supports barter, and all goods shipped from the Green Empire can be sold at the lowest price..."

"Boss Roy, I think you should select a few more junior magic herb merchants, and we can also become one of the magic herb buyers, and our offer will definitely be the highest price..."

Roy stood at the door of his house and waited for a while.

After the imperial merchants had revealed their identities, Roy breathed a sigh of relief, and then refused:

"The contract for this business has been signed, and I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation next time..."

Roy stood at the door of the courtyard and refused tactfully.

After listening to the translated words, a group of imperial merchants left in a carriage in great frustration.

Roy pushed open the door and walked in. Tomorrow he planned to take the supply ship with Moira, Sabrina, and Woods to Partington Island. Claire would be in charge of hiring the second-level strongmen from the mercenary group.

Moira and Sabrina spent the whole day preparing things for the trip.

They went to the magic shopping street in the upper city in the afternoon and have not returned yet...

Roy took two apples and lay down on the rattan chair on the terrace. He had recently felt that the divine power in his body was always stirring.

However, every time he carefully felt what it felt like, that wonderful feeling disappeared without a trace...

There were several pots of light flowers on the terrace, and Roy's recliner was right in the middle of the pots.

He originally thought that he needed to purify a few more demons before he could find a breakthrough.

But now Roy only felt that the rich holy light almost made his whole body translucent. As a trace of holy light power peeled off from his body like a spring silkworm spinning silk, it was about to form a layer of light cocoon around his body.

Roy finally realized that he might break through the shackles of the tenth-level priest tonight and be promoted to a first-level priest.

There was originally a cluster of holy trees in his body, but now this holy tree was actually wrapped in a vortex of holy light. Roy's body burst out with countless holy lights, and countless holy light particles floating in the air around the courtyard kept gathering towards the holy tree in Roy's body at this moment.

The light cocoon outside Roy's body was also getting thicker and thicker...

Roy, trapped in the light cocoon, did not need to breathe, and did not feel a bit of suffocation inside.

And Roy felt as if his body was about to be assimilated by countless holy lights and became transparent, and the holy tree was also rapidly growing countless branches and leaves, and these holy light forces kept spinning around Roy...

The next moment, he saw from countless bizarre holy auras that the world in front of him seemed to be changing.

In Roy's eyes, all the colors seemed to become extremely bright, and the extremely subtle sounds around him could be transmitted to his ears without any hindrance. The surrounding magic vortex continued to shrink and slowly condensed in Roy's body.

It was an extremely natural and wonderful feeling.

The Holy Light Tree in his body seemed to disappear, and it seemed to have merged with him.

Around Roy's body, a naturally formed magic vortex had taken shape, and the lush tree appeared behind Roy when Roy's faith moved.

This Holy Light Tree no longer had only nine roots, and the crown was even more lush.

The roots of the tree were now wrapped by the vortex outside the body, and a holy light continued to penetrate the holy tree.

Roy stood on the terrace with a surprised look on his face, watching himself successfully advance. Roy stretched out his right hand, and with a slight movement of faith, a dazzling white light appeared in the palm of his hand.

What surprised Roy even more was that...the Holy Light Tree that had merged with his body actually bloomed at this moment...
