Chapter 18: Goodbye Quicksand
With Kazik leading the way, the trolls and a group of fifty people finally walked out of the Angolo crater. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The info team entered the Tanaris Desert. A breath of wind and sand came to my face. The trolls are thrilled, the desert is barren, but it's the taste of home. In Sander's words, the humid air of Angolo Crater was already oozing water from the trolls' skin.
Kazik flapped his nose and breathed in the dry air, his eyes full of yellow sand and the scorching sun above him. A few plants grow tenaciously on the dunes, vultures hovering in the sky, and there are no hyenas looming in the sand, everything here is so familiar. The Tanaris Desert, a distant memory that lurks deep in the soul of a troll, is home to the Sandfury Trolls.
"Spending so much time in Angolo Crater makes you miss everything here."
"Hmph, Zerelis, when you eat the sand in the desert for a few days, you will remember the good life in Angolo again."
"Haha, that's true. Captain, our Tyrannosaurus mount doesn't seem to be very well adapted to the desert environment. Will this affect their combat effectiveness? ”
"There will be an impact, but it shouldn't be a big problem, just get used to it for a while."
Bypassing the Corrupted Lair and avoiding the Sand Mallet Ogre, the trolls finally reached the pond near the Sentry once again, and the Sand Sentry was already in sight. An waited to go to the quicksand sentry to investigate, and Kazik took his subordinates straight to the pond. The long journey in the desert made these tyrannosaurs who had not experienced wind and sand miserable. The trolls jumped off their mounts, let go of the reins, and the beasts ran merrily toward the pool. The Tyrannosaurus jumped straight into the pond and frolicked and enjoyed this rare time of fun. But for them, the life of misery in the Tanaris desert has only just begun.
The Sandfury Trolls simply drank from the Tyrannosaurus frolicking, filling up the shriveled water bladder. There are many dangers in the desert, and there is a nest of corruption not far south of the quicksand outpost, and bugs can also infest near this pool, so there is no room for trolls to be vigilant. Carelessness often comes at a terrible price, the cost of life.
"Be careful, there's bugs!"
Kazik shook his head and looked at the poor xenomorphs in front of him speechlessly. The trolls, who had been startled at first, calmed down, laughing and pointing at the Tyrannosaurus chasing the bugs. During the long journey, trolls and tyrannosaurs could only eat jerky. Even if it was a piece of flesh from a demonic tyrannosaurus, how could a fresh bug attract a tyrannosaurus more. The Tyrannosaurus surrounds the xenomorphs and devours the screaming insects. These beasts love to eat these xenomorphs.
The good news is that there is no shortage of bugs in the desert.
"Lord Overseer," the Scout has returned. "The quicksand sentry is inhabited by a large number of xenomorph bugs, and our people are fighting those bugs."
"How can there be bugs at the quicksand sentry? Zarelis, didn't you say that the xenomorph swarm retreated after the attack on the quicksand sentry? ”
"Yes, Captain. When we returned to the quicksand sentry again, there were no swarms there, only the corpses of our dead warriors and the xenomorphs. ”
"Then it was only after we abandoned the sentry that the xenomorphs took over it. It seems that the water in the desert is very dry, otherwise the bugs would not have run so far from their nests. ”
Water in the desert is too precious to be the source of life. Running dry? The trolls all looked solemnly at their leader, listening to him analyze the harsh conditions of the Tanaris Desert.
"Why are you so sad, don't worry. The desert water is slowly drying up, we still have the Angolo crater, and Zurfalak has a sacred pool, remember my crazy thoughts? I'm going to kill Gazrila, and we'll get the Sacred Pool back. ”
Kazik turned to the scout, "How is the condition of our people, is it dangerous?" ”
"Not very well, Lord Overseer. I've seen Luzru, they are supposed to be the elite troops of the Ukz chieftain, but there are too many xenomorph bugs. ”
"Shut up, Ukiz is no longer our chieftain!"
Hearing Shandal's roar, the scout was very aggrieved, but he didn't dare to speak.
Kazkra stopped the enraged troll, "Shandar, don't do this. ”
"Captain, you're not going to save Luzru, are you? That's one of Ukez's subordinates! Ukiz will not save us from death! ”
"Do you know what I'm going to do when I come back to Zul Farak? Sandal. I've come back to become the chief of the Sand Fury, and those people will be my subjects. ”
"Zerelis, get ready, at least revenge for the hatred of these bugs for destroying the quicksand sentry in the first place. Let's hope Luzru will hold out until we arrive. ”
Hearing the Troll Overseer's orders, even a particularly reluctant Sandal quickly approached his mount. The trolls quickly checked their weapons and flipped over to mount the tyrannosaurs. Riding on top of Rakvi, Kazik turned to look at his men, his sword pointing forward. "Let's go!"
Struggling in the desert and tempered in Angolo, Troll warriors, the time has come to test you.
As the shaman of Gazrila, Cavello has a great voice in Zulfarak. Now that the Troll Shaman is no longer allowed to draw water from the Hallowed Pool, the Sandfury Trolls need to retake the Sentry and occupy the pool there.
Drop in the level of the Hallowed Pool? Phew! Luzru knew that it was all a lie. This is just an excuse for Cabello to covet Excalibur in the hands of Chief Ukez. The protector Ghashas is in the hands of the Troll Chieftain, and Cabello wants to use this to force Ukz to surrender Excalibur.
Luzru was the lieutenant of the Shafur chieftain, and on the orders of Ukez, he led a force to the quicksand outpost outside the city of Zulfarak. This is the elite army of the chief, although the number is not much, only a hundred, but all of them are elite. According to Ukez's vision, such a team would be enough to take back the quicksand sentry. Reality woke up Luzru, who was also full of confidence. The team he led was overwhelmed by the swarm, and they could only struggle in the sea of insects. It is only a matter of time before it falls.
Fortunately, Kazik led his men to the quicksand outpost, and he saw the trolls surrounded by the swarm.
"Rush in!"
"Kill!"
"Charge!"
The trolls rode the Tyrannosaurus straight at the Xenoworms, the sight of them recalling the images they had been attacked by the Swarm before, and now it was time for their revenge.
Kazik rode Rakvi to the front, his reins in one hand and the long sword in his right hand slashing at the xenomorphs with the speed of the Tyrannosaurus. After slashing and killing a few xenomorph insects, the Tyrannosaurus could no longer rush away, the swarm was too dense. Kazik jumped off his mount, "Lakvi, be careful!" ”
Hearing its master's call, the tyrannosaurus roared loudly, snorted heavily, and began its hunt.
When the troll leader used shockwaves, which unfortunately affected Zarelis, Kazik knew that he couldn't use a wide range of attacks in his own crowd.
"Ha," Kazik jumped high towards the dense area of the insect swarm, and trampled on the ground again, a bug was directly trampled to pieces, disgusting juice splashed everywhere, and the foothold sent a strong shock wave to rush around, and flew heroically.
It's full of xenomorph bugs, and now Kazik doesn't have to worry too much, it's his killing time.
Kazik's body skyrocketed, the state of the gods was activated, and the troll leader held the weapon in his hand, spun it vigorously, and the long sword slashed in all directions, whirlwind slashing.
The powerful slash slashes the surrounding bugs in two. The surviving xenomorphs panicked in the face of such a powerful blow and hurriedly wanted to stay away. The dense swarm leaves them with no way back. The troll held a sword in his left hand, his clenched right fist flashing with lightning lightning. Kazik slammed his right fist into the ground, and the swarm of insects struck with lightning in all directions. Some of the weak bugs were directly blasted by the power of the lightning, and the rest were also delayed by the lightning. Thunder strikes. The xenomorphs were slow to move, and could only watch as another whirlwind slash from Kazik slashed them, slicing them apart and reaping their lives.
The long sword in his hand slashed hard, sending out a shock wave, and this time the shock wave did not affect his own people. The xenomorph swarm was swept to the ground, and Kazik stepped forward to kill the insects one by one.
The Troll Overseers felt like they were fighting a good fight, and it was just a one-sided slaughter by him. Kazik looked up at his men, the trolls all jumped off their mounts, warriors fought in front, archers striking from range, and witch doctors unleashing magic in the rear, and they worked together perfectly. The fangs and sharp claws of the tyrannosaurus are powerful weapons to hunt these bugs, and there is no good way for xenomorphs to fight these strange beasts.
Slightly distracted, Kazik felt the bite of the xenomorph on his back. He grabbed it from behind with his backhand, threw the insect to the ground, raised his right foot high, and stepped down hard, directly crushing the xenomorph insect.
"I'm starting to miss the smell of barbecue bug legs." Kazik said, pulling out a few Angolo Explosion Crystals, "Hopefully it won't burn too much." ”
"Bang, bang, bang."
Angolo Crystal was thrown at the swarm by Kazik, and the crystal exploded violently, knocking the xenomorphs to the ground, and some of the bugs were directly blown to pieces.
Luzru, who was struggling to hold on, heard the loud noise,
"Is this who is casting powerful magic? Not quite like that. The troll looked up and saw a metal giant in the swarm, a huge silver-white figure slashing through the swarm with a sword in his hand. Is this our helper? Luzru kept his sword in his hand, repelling an attacking bug, and he saw the tyrannosaurs, and the trolls beside the beasts.
"That's the Sand Fury! Those ferocious beasts are their companions. We're saved, that's our reinforcements! ”
Luzru shouted loudly, and his troll warriors had spotted them.
"Reinforcements!"
"We're saved!"
The trolls cheered, their weapons wielding more forcefully. Trolls in a desperate situation bring out the best of their energy. These trolls are desperate to survive.
