Chapter 64: Fighting

Kudran whistled to his mount, Scarley, to prepare for the battle to come.

Before leaving, Varian had already discussed tactics with Kudran for the tactics of the battle, which was that the human sword and shield men would be responsible for intercepting the trolls head-on, the pikemen would be responsible for covering and assisting the sword and shield men, the High Elf rangers and human archers would be responsible for long-range fire, and the griffin knights of the Brute Hammer Dwarves would be responsible for aerial suppression.

Once Varian and the others were ready, they continued their way towards the troll's temporary habitat.

At the forefront are the five High Elves, who spend their years battling trolls in the forests of Quel'Salas tasked with spotting and clearing out the trolls who are on guard.

As for why not just push it over, on the one hand, if those trolls are prepared after receiving the alert, it will increase the difficulty of the next battle; On the other hand, Varian and the others are also afraid that those trolls will run away in advance when they see that the situation is not good, and it will not be easy to chase them in the forest.

The remaining five rangers followed Varian with Winlesa, continuing to keep him safe.

He hadn't gone far before the elven ranger in front of him spotted two trolls hiding in a tree to keep watch.

They used the trees to hide their figures, and they approached the trolls with dexterity, and then launched a surprise attack that quickly eliminated the two sentry trolls.

Perhaps the trolls didn't even expect to be attacked near Zuwasa, so they didn't have more sentry men.

The trolls didn't notice until Varian's team approached the periphery of the makeshift habitat, but it was too late for them to respond.

Kudran mounted his mount, Scarley, and then removed the horn from his waist and blew it vigorously.

"Brute Hammer, take off!" After putting away the horn, Kudran shouted loudly.

"Oh!" With his shout, the other griffin knights took off with cheers.

Kudran kicked the griffin under him lightly with his heel and said, "Let's go, Scarley, let's not fall behind." ”

"Woooooooo Scarley let out a loud cry in response, then spread her wings and flew into the air.

After the griffin knights of the Hammer Dwarves took off, the soldiers of the Storm Guardian began to march in formation under the command of their respective captains.

……

This temporary habitat isn't too far from Zuvasha, the village of the Deadwood Trolls, where more than forty Deadwood Trolls are congregating.

Most of these trolls are Deadwood Skullcuts and Deadwood Skinners, in addition to two Deadwood Witch Doctors.

Several deadwood skullcutters were sitting on the ground wiping their weapons, all stained with blood, they had just gone on a hunt.

Several deadwood skinners were sitting around the campfire, slicing a broken corpse with knives, which had been cut beyond recognition, but the shape could suggest it was a wildling.

Several other trolls were roasting on the fire with sticks and skewers of blood-dripping pieces of flesh that had just been cut from the corpse.

Drops of blood mixed with grease fell onto the campfire, making a crackling sound, and a rich smell of flesh began to fill the air.

The smell made the hungry trolls even hungrier, and one of the trolls couldn't wait for the meat to be cooked, and he couldn't wait to pick it up and put it in his mouth to chew on it.

The other trolls were about to come up and grab the piece of meat when Kudran's horn suddenly sounded not far away.

The Deadwood Trolls were a little surprised, but they didn't panic too much, but grabbed the weapons next to them and rushed out of their habitat.

As soon as they got outside, the deadwood trolls were greeted with a rain of arrows before they could see who the enemy was.

Several trolls were shot dead on the spot, and the remaining trolls quickly dispersed and hid in the surrounding woods.

Since the trolls had dispersed, it was difficult to inflict effective damage on them by continuing to shoot with a bow and arrow, so Varian began to give orders.

"Array! Advance! ”

The sword and shield soldiers at the front of the line raised their shields and marched forward in orderly steps.

The Deadwood Trolls finally saw the enemy on the other side, and the well-armed hundred-man team in front of them made them feel fear and despair.

As far as the trolls are concerned, it is obvious that they can't break through the formation of the sword and shield soldiers head-on, but it is too late to escape now.

Just as the trolls were all focused on the Stormstorm Guardians, Kudran and his griffon knights began to attack the trolls.

In the sky, Kudran laughed and ordered, "Haha! These greenskins can't bother to look up at the sky, and this is our chance to attack! Brute Hammer, Attack! ”

"Attack!" The griffin riders swooped down.

When they descended to a certain height, they began to throw the hammers in their hands, and these heavy warhammers swirled towards the trolls.

Several trolls couldn't dodge, and they were hit by these war hammers, and they all broke their bones and tendons, and suffered a lot of injuries.

Another troll was so unlucky that he was hit in the head by a warhammer and died instantly.

"You filthy beasts, don't try to defile this forest again!" Kudran shouted in the air.

The storm hammer he threw was the most powerful, and with the sound of thunder, it directly smashed the head of a troll, and the troll's body was carried into the air by the immense force.

The hammer then flew back into Kudran's hands, and Scarre made a graceful arc in the air, dodging the spears thrown by several trolls.

Above the ground, the sword and shield soldiers continued to push forward, and the archers continued to shoot arrows at the deadwood trolls to neutralize them from a distance.

The Elven Ranger are like snipers, and if any troll dares to show his head, he will be mercilessly shot by their arrows.

The combined air and ground strikes overwhelmed the Deadwood Trolls, who soon had little to fight back.

It was then that the two Deadwood Witch Doctors finally made a move.

With an obscure troll spell, the two deadwood witch doctors raised their staffs like sticks in their hands, and a dark green mist appeared out of thin air, spreading towards the Storm Guardians.

"Get out of the way! It's the voodoo magic of a deadwood troll! Kudran in the air reminded loudly.

Varian didn't dare to be careless, he knew that the Deadwood Trolls believed in the spider god Shadra, and this piece of green mist, which didn't look like a good thing, was also related to poison.

Kudran had previously told Varian that many of the Hammer Dwarves had died from the voodoo magic of the Deadwood Trolls.

The Stormstorm Guardians are all Varian's descendants, and Varian doesn't want them to suffer any damage here.
