Chapter 46: The Spirit of the Eagle (Part II)
Shane changed direction and headed towards the altar where the dragon eagle had once been trapped, destroying two troll camps along the way. The troll's high-level spellcaster was nowhere to be seen, leaving Shane to wreak havoc. The most powerful spellcaster you have ever encountered is an old troll, and when the flames are gone, he is still alive.
"Why?"
"Knowledge," Shane replied to it in troll language. The fight between elves and trolls doesn't need a reason, it is a process of eliminating barbarism first, and order is washed away from chaos, and he wants to get the knowledge of the troll communication dimension.
The old troll was dying, he pouted, and then calmly prepared for the fate of death. Its skin is shriveled and the hair on the top of its head is sparse, but time has given it intelligent eyes, and it has clearly thought about something else than the majority of trolls are busy surviving. It's not enough to resist the flame explosion technique, during the exploration, the old troll's respiratory tract is burned, and his speech is already the limit, he doesn't need to use his hands, and he doesn't have a few days to live.
"Amani's lineage has been severed, and the masters of Silvermoon City are so sure that they only have a few mages on the front line?" Shane remembered that the attitude of the mentor and the council could be summed up as: 'Pay attention but don't be in a hurry, try it first.' ’
Leaving the troll camp, night fell, and Shane drove Tygo to camp at the foot of a mountain. The manned device on Tiger's back was still there, and the bed and small coffee table that had been placed before had not been touched. It's incredible that divinity has infected metal and yet kept the device. What the divine instinct is, only speculation is inconclusive.
Even in the field, evening repairs are carried out. The three sets of orbs are replaced with the Flame Explosion Technique to simulate the operation of the solar system. There are a total of ten magic spheres, which are the brightest light source at night except for the moon.
"Anyone approaching?"
The moon climbed to the top, and Shane was about to extinguish the spell when the Eye of Truth reported that several humanoid creatures were approaching.
"Let's take a look?" Shane patted Tygo on the head and pointed in the direction of "go over there", and Taggo walked with a stride, clattering footsteps and announcing 'I'm coming'.
Seeing the shadow, Shane unleashes the illumination. The white bright spots flew away slowly, illuminating the figures below.
They are a three-person squad of elves, and the equipment belongs to the Far Travelers. Through the light of the Flame Explosion Technique, they also saw Shane clearly.
"The sun well is up, we guessed it, it's the elven spellcaster." Several people quickened their pace and rushed to the feet of Tiger Go, "Your Excellency, there are a large number of trolls chasing after you, hurry up!" ”
"How far?" Shane asked, the orb above his head still in motion.
The distant travelers looked up and saw that the light source was actually a spell that rotated in some regular way, with an incandescent flame in the center, stabbing their eyes so hard that they could not look directly. I don't understand, I don't understand at all, but as elves, they know that arcane represents mystery, mystery represents power, and power represents status.
"Your Excellency, the troll is two kilometers behind you, and it will come soon." The three rangers were much calmer and bowed their heads to Shane.
The trolls didn't stop me, but they chased and intercepted the rangers? Do they want to be easy and then difficult? While thinking about it, Shane said to the rangers, "You can leave first."
"Wait, Your Excellency, we are Far Travelers, we will not abandon any elves, as long as Your Excellency wants to fight, we will not leave." The Ranger protested unusually loudly, in a firm and unmistakable tone.
Sean received their pride, the same pride, even more evident in Sylvanas, who refused to abandon her subordinates after she broke off alone, and it was this pride that made her die in the future.
"Then you help me keep the trolls from getting close," Shane said with a sure fit of pride, leaving the Ranger with room for more.
In the wilderness of night, the Flame Explosion is the best guiding light, and the trolls are also looking at the light and chasing after it, the black shadows are layered, the weapons reflect the moonlight, and the frost spots are dotted, and they howl excitedly.
Troll whispers to the effect of 'killing', 'sacrificing' and 'eating'
It's just that why is it getting slower and slower, slower and slower? Running becomes trotting, and trotting becomes walking.
After waiting for a while, the troll was barefoot two hundred meters away, with five spellcasters and two hundred and eleven warriors.
"It's over" Shane's spirit fluctuated like strings, and the nine orbs above his head derailed first, drawing nine rays of light in the night, piercing through the nine targets, and the trolls fell in a row in his eyes.
The fire explosion technique is slightly slower, and the fire explosion technique is not as handy as the magic ball, and the spirit has accumulated a considerable thickness, like archery, first full of strength, and then catapult.
The trajectory is corrected, and the fireball flies out of a distance, landing in a parabolic pattern. "Jump~~" The ground trembled, the explosion was brighter than ten moons, and the trolls seemed to be leaves in the stormy waves, scattered and fluttered with the shock wave, and were blown to pieces. The fire dissipated, and a little material at the center of the explosion borrowed the moonlight, shining brightly.
The battlefield was eerily quiet except for the wailing, and all the trolls stood still.
"Flame Caster ~~~" The trolls broke the 'silence' with a bitter howl, they hesitated when they came, and when they left, they were decisive and fast, leaving the wounded to disperse as birds and beasts.
"I'll give you the ones on the ground." Shane said to several rangers.
The three rangers swallowed, "Yes, Your Excellency"
Looking around at the trolls strewn across the ground, Shane had seen such a scene many times, and was incredulous about the degradation of the troll civilization. In the epic, the trolls were the rulers of Azeroth, and in ancient times, their power has been shrinking, and today they are scattered all over the world, living mainly on blood sacrifices, fishing and hunting, and some tribes like Amani are on the verge of severing their magic inheritance.
Among the trolls who were killed, no matter how small the purity effect is, it can't be let go. After the absorption is completed, a little new clip is received, and the black wings that soar through the sky - Anjunnas, receiving the blood sacrifice of the troll, have only recently been captured. Enraged, it unleashes a tornado to destroy all the trolls. But trapped by a dozen troll priests joining hands.
"The whirlwind will take revenge!" Its memories are filled with hatred and anger.
The trolls have grabbed another animal spirit, and the three rangers may have the information. Shane looked at it, they were mending the knife, it was not talk time, and first drove Tego to another place to camp. The troll's timid reaction was a bit amusing to Shane, who was a mage majoring in the spell school but was famous for his energy shaping spells.
"Your Excellency, it's been cleaned up." The three rangers found Shane's camping spot and saluted respectfully, placing the troll's ears at Tygo's feet, which Shane didn't need, but wouldn't behave at, and put the troll's ears in his magic pocket.
"Why are you being chased by trolls"?
"We found a troll altar in the southeast, and the population is larger than we thought. Troll rituals come and go very frequently, so we wanted to find out what the trolls were doing, but we were caught halfway through the dive. ”
"Can you tell me what that altar looks like?"
After the ranger finished describing it, Shane had not been to the altar. "Can you see your map?"
"Your Excellency, please see"
There are many new markings on the Ranger map, terrain changes, and troll settlements, all marked here. Sean also had his own map, but in his head, the Eye of Truth helped him keep track of all the places he had traveled, so his mind had all the places he had passed. Compare the Ranger map, where there is none, add data.
"Shall I go to that altar?"
"In the name of the Far Traveler, I am willing to follow Your Excellency."
