Chapter 762: Attack on the Troll (2/5)
After learning that the Frostguard tribe had made the first move, Rhodes was a little surprised.
Why?
It's late autumn now, and at this time, the Breath of Avinia from Valoran's arctic glacier blows across the whole of Freljord, bringing endless snowstorms and ice storms to the area.
At this time, the whole of Freljord could not go to war - let alone war, and even walking in the wind and snow was very reluctant.
The Frost Guard at this time?
Rhodes was the first to disbelieve!
Even the most elite Frost Guard warriors of the Frost Guard can't march through such a blizzard!
However, to Rhodes' surprise, it was not the Frost Guard Warrior or the Frost Guard Mage who did it, but the Ice Troll.
Ice trolls?
After Rod was stunned for a moment, he also reacted.
In the moment when the cold wind is howling, the ice troll is one of the very few guys who is not afraid of the cold wind!
Although these ice trolls will have a hard time in winter, their strong physique and large size make these guys more and more able to move freely on the ice fields of Freljord in the winter - although ice trolls do not have thick warm fur, their skin is thick and tough, and there are no capillaries on the surface of the skin, and the special physiological structure allows these guys to withstand the extreme cold, even in the winter of Freljord, these trolls can still move freely in the wasteland.
If these guys attack in the winter...... Avarosa is really not easy to deal with.
What's worse is that this time the trolls' actions are aimed at those small tribes.
After the meeting in Freeldrod City, Lisandro tore her skin and caused many of the previously neutral clans to favor Ash, and now Lisandro's revenge for them is to run over the troll legions one by one.
Ash had already sent out a reminder that the tribes would move west for safety reasons—some of them had responded to Ash's call, and some had remained on guard in their hometowns planning to leave if they saw Frostguard's army.
Until the onset of winter, the Frostguard tribe did not take any action.
Then, when the first heavy snow fell, the ice trolls appeared, and they found that they couldn't run away if they wanted to!
A few lucky ones managed to deliver the news to Ash - but by the time Ash received the news, their clan was finished.
All of the people of Avarossa, including Rhodes, entered a state of mental boredom, and they subconsciously regarded winter as a time of "inability to fight".
In fact, "unable to fight" is only for the vast majority of people, and under the command of Lisandro, there is still a force capable of fighting!
Not only was the appearance of the Ice Troll a serious blow to the tribes that were inclined towards Avarossa, but even more fatally, by the time Ash found out, it was already too late!
Although Ash accepted the survivors at the first time, he still needed to discuss with Rhodes about Lisandro's countermeasures.
……………………
When he saw Ash again, Rhodes saw large dark circles on her face.
The Ice Troll's attack not only destroyed several tribes, but more importantly caused strong unrest among the tribes that had already taken refuge in Avarossa.
The Ice Trolls, who had always played a role akin to a scourge in Freljord, were uneasy to learn that the Ice Trolls were under Lisandro's control.
In order to appease these people, Ash visited the colonies one by one, told all the elders about his strategy and tactics, and made his own promises - just swearing by the bow of Avarosa, Ash did not know how many!
Ash wasn't Trist's kind of guy who swore to lie like drinking water, and after all this, Ash was also very tired under a lot of pressure.
Thankfully, now Rhodes is back.
Seeing Rod, Ash collapsed in his chair as if he had lost all his strength.
"You're finally back." It took Ash a long time to regain his strength, and finally took a closer look at Rod, "I heard that you went to study a special spell?" The result? ”
"Not bad." Rod nodded, "It's you, you don't look like Avarosa's majestic mother!" ”
“……”
Ashmoran.
After Rod's arrival, the speed of Freljord's unification was greatly accelerated, and in this case, the pressure on Ash also increased, and it was only because her ideals have always supported her that she can still maintain her enthusiasm for work.
"You need to take a break." Looking at Ash, who was silent, Rod shook his head helplessly, "The responsibility for this matter lies with me, although I know that the ice troll has a lot to do with Lisandro, but I didn't expect her to command the ice troll to do this in winter......"
"No, it's not your fault." Seeing that Rhodes had taken the blame on himself, Ash shook his head and interrupted him, "I can't ask you to see everything, I'm already grateful that you were able to seriously injure Lisandro on Lake Lakstak and buy me so many allies and so much time." ”
"I am the successor of Avarossa, and I am the one who bears the fate."
"You are my guide, and I am the executor."
In between the words, Ash quickly recovered his spirit - for Ash, ideals are the future, but also motivation.
"But...... You still have to pay attention to your state. Rhodes couldn't say much about such a strong woman, "I'm going to leave for a trip to the Furnace Country now—I suspect Lisandro would even do something to the Furnace Country." ”
"Do it to the furnace country?" Ash frowned, a little incredulous, "How dare she anger Orn—that guy named Aatrox had proven the horror of the Mountain Hidden Flame, how dare she enter the Furnace Country after being so badly injured in Lakstak Lake......
"Why did Aatrox fight Orn? And I've heard that Aatrox was surrounded by a lot of Frostguard warriors at the time, what role did Lisandra play here? Rhodes narrowed his eyes, "And the fact that these ice trolls are able to raid in the winter can actually cause us more trouble - but she's only attacking the neutral tribes, I can guess that Aatrox also left something for Orn?" ”
Ash was still a little confused about Rod's speculation - it was all Rod's speculation, and there was hardly any evidence.
Simply Rhodes didn't have much to do now, and after telling Ash to stay vigilant and make a few plans, he hurriedly took his leave and set out on the road to the furnace country alone.

Ahem, the author used the [Inter-day Update Method] to reduce the number of updates by one day.
The main thing is that there is a problem with the keyboard, the author's shoulders are relatively wide, and the shoulder hurts when using the keyboard code words of the notebook, so it is quietly less than a day.
Tomorrow the keyboard of the dog east will arrive, and the fifth watch will be restored.
Well, slipped.
