Even though the trolls have been suppressed by the High Elves for thousands of years, there is still no elf who does not remember the name "Zurkin".

The name first appeared during the Troll Wars, when he was one of the few troll warriors who had been captured by the elves but escaped...... Of course, he paid a great price, and while he was escaping, he was blinded in his right eye by an arrow from a distant traveler.

Defeated in the war, the Amani trolls lost most of the Wraith Lands and retreated to Zuaman; But Zurkin was not discouraged by this0 and began his frenzied revenge. In fact, over the years, I don't know how many innocent elven civilians have died at his hands...... Even when parents coax their children to sleep, they sometimes come up with this name to intimidate them!

What happened next, Carlin didn't know because he was knocked unconscious.

……

After some time, Carlin woke up.

The surroundings are terrible, and he is now in a prison cell, with Liadline and Haduron by his side.

Luckily, the trolls didn't kill them directly.

"That sorcerer has sealed my ...... of Light," the priest's voice was weak, and she pointed to Haduron on the ground, "He's badly wounded, but I can't help him...... Carlin, what are we going to do......"

It was the first time Carlin had seen Liadline appear so vulnerable.

"It's okay, there's a way to ......," Carlin reassured.

But at this time, his mind was in chaos...... The leader of the trolls was Zulkin, and the rest must have been Zurkin's cronies, and Kalin only vaguely remembered that when he was unconscious, Zulkin called the name of the troll who shot Haduron with a javelin: Dakara!

Any one of these trolls, whether it's Zurkin, or the sorcerer, or the headhunter called Dakara...... All possess terrifying strength, and they can easily defeat the three of them, they are Amani's most elite strength.

Not to mention that now Liadline has lost her Light, and Haduron has completely lost consciousness.

In fact, these trolls don't even have a restrain on them, because they don't take them seriously at all.

"Why do you think they haven't killed us for so long?" Liadline asked in a very soft voice.

Carlin didn't answer, but he could already guess about it. While in the Sunfury Library, he had read reports and stories about the cruel rituals of trolls, none of whom died well...... Carlin could be sure that whatever these moss monsters had in store for them had nothing to do with friendliness.

Could it be that you are going to die here this time? A strange thought came to Carlin's mind.

The door to the cell was opened, and an emerald green figure, it was the troll sorcerer, and he walked in, holding a strange brazier in his hand.

Carlin subconsciously clenched his staff as he took Liadrin's hand and took a few steps back.

The sorcerer smiled meaningfully at Karin, revealing her feminine teeth...... Then he placed the brazier in the middle of the cell and walked out.

Smoke rose little by little from the brazier...... A strange smell, and Carlin felt dizzy at the smell of this smoke......

The smoke enveloped them little by little, and it was not the kind of vertigo that made people lose consciousness directly, but it made people's minds extremely confused, and they couldn't concentrate at all!

Carlin could conclude that it was some kind of terrifying troll ritual and that the three of them would be sacrificed to it!

……

The doors of the cell were opened in all four directions.

"That ridiculous light can't save you."

A terrifying voice echoed through the cell...... Hoarse, rough troll tones. The sound seemed to come from every direction around it, and it could have been due to the illusion of smoke.

Then a troll in a wooden mask strode into the cell, the owner of the voice: "You are about to be judged and convicted. ”

"Guilty!"

"Guilty!"

Countless voices were responding to him.

"You are guilty. You have banished us from our original homeland......"

Carlin felt like his consciousness was going to collapse at any moment with the sound.

"You are guilty, and you have forced us to hide like animals......"

"You are guilty, you slaughtered my brothers and sisters so wantonly......"

"You are guilty, and you take everything around you as your possessions......"

"You are guilty, you are so foolish, but you can get what you want......"

The troll took off his mask, revealing his original face...... Zurkin!

A blood-stained dagger, held in Zurkin's hand, he slowly approached the ranger Hadurun lying there!

"The Yakei people once tried to banish our ancestors; The Night Elves once tried to banish us. And then you did the same thing, but ......" He crouched down in front of Hadurun and waved his right hand vigorously.

“…… We're like nightmares...... Never dissipate! ”

Karin narrowed his eyes a little too much......

"Ah......" The ranger's screams resounded throughout the cell.

Zurkin stabbed the dagger into one of his eyes.

"My right eye was blinded by your rangers...... So I'm going to pay it back! Zurkin had a pleasant smile on his face.

He picked up the bloodstained dagger again and turned his gaze to Liadline, who was frozen there...... Little by little, he moved closer to the priestess.

The thick smoke stimulated Carlin's spirit, but he suddenly calmed down.

"Can't let this troll continue......" he said to himself hypnotically.

"We can't let the tragedy continue to happen......"

"I'm a mage...... Mage...... Mage ......"

The voice of the All-Seeing Eye was suddenly sounded by Carlin:

"The essential difference between the second and third rings is inspiration!"

"There are many kinds of inspiration, but it is an emotion, an abstract emotion......"

"Lord Casas vowed to drive the monster out of Nesseril once and for all after witnessing his closest friend being completely devoured by Ferrin Demon Sunflower, and in that moment, he was inspired by his own......"

At the same time, Carlin felt that at this moment, something tiny in his mind was grabbed by him!

The world seemed to be getting smaller and clearer at the same time, the magic net in the sky was clearer, and his spiritual power seemed to have changed qualitatively at this moment!

Three rings!

A faint magical shield shrouded around Carlin, blocking out the smoke...... He had never felt so awake as he did now!

At a life-threatening moment, he made a small breakthrough.

However, it is not enough!
