After much effort, Sean finally convinced the two male elven mages. As for Merry, there is no question of persuasion or non-persuasion at all, because he has always believed in Sean.

Soon, a small team of five mages began to secretly travel to the interior of the Amani Empire.

In the northern part of the Eastern Kingdom of this era, the Amani Empire held the largest territory, twice as large as the Arathas Empire and the Quel'Salas Kingdom combined.

The powerful regeneration ability and terrifying reproduction speed of the Amani trolls make the number of Amani trolls very large. Trolls also live longer than humans in their natural state, so this has led to a rapidly growing population that cannot be contained.

Anthropologists tell us that the simplest and most effective way to curb population numbers is not family planning, but war and disease.

Because of the strong system and the study of voodoo, trolls are basically not sick. The only major factor that can contain the number of troll populations is war.

Trolls need war.

They need to find a wider living space for the rapidly new species, so it is imperative for them to invade other races from the outside.

Because of the large number of people, the Amani Empire is relatively densely populated, so it is impossible for the five Sean to go deep into the Amani Empire effortlessly.

And they can't use the Pretender Potion in the first place, because these potions are scarce and hard to come by, and once they run out, they can't get them again in a short time, so they have to save some of them.

So from the very beginning, they were ready to fight.

Trolls roaming and patrolling the borders of the Arathas Empire and the Amani Empire became the initial targets of the five Seans.

Sean unleashed his only pet, the Crystal Spider, and held the Staff of Sharzaru Abomination Naga for the first time in a long-term battle with spells.

Fireball, Ice Arrow, Arcane Missile, Arcane Impact......

Sean felt refreshed.

The Crystal Spider also plays its role as a combat pet. It has reached level 8, although it is impossible to fight any troll warrior head-on, but if it is just a sneak attack, then with the strong physical fitness of Amani troll, it will not be able to control the fierce crystal poison of the crystal spider.

The basic effect of crystal poison is paralysis.

After being bitten by the crystal spider, the crystal poison spreads along the wound to the enemy's whole body, and then the enemy will be paralyzed all over the body, not only the body will be paralyzed, the movement will be slow or even unable to move, and even the mind will be severely impressed. Crystal poison is not only an ordinary toxin, but also a neurotoxin!

Whenever this happens, Sean will leisurely use a fireball technique to burn enemies into barbecue.

Unlike Sean, Merry prefers spells like Ice Arrows.

And the other two male elf mages are also very strong, all kinds of spells are at their fingertips, the first-order spells can basically be instantaneous, and the casting speed of the second-order spells is also very fast.

As for the elven female mage Serena, she rarely makes a move, and spends most of her time on guard.

When night fell, they were in trouble for the first time.

That's a team of ten trolls, including 5 troll warriors, 3 troll axe-throwers, 1 troll doctor, and a troll hecromancer.

Standard configuration.

With a sweep of Sean's eye of insight, he saw through the strength of the ten trolls.

The 5 troll warriors are all mid-level warriors with a challenge level of more than 8. And the challenge level of the 3 troll axe throwers is also not lower than level 8. That troll doctor, the challenge level is only level 5. As for the troll sorcerer, the challenge level is even more than level 15.

Sorcerer, is Amani's unique spellcaster class, generally able to cast certain spiritual magic, fire magic, shadow magic, and is especially good at transfiguration. They love to turn their enemies into critters of all shapes, especially frogs.

Sean was turned into a frog by the sorcerer, but fortunately, the elven mage dispersed the magic in time, otherwise Sean might have been cut in half by the troll axe-thrower, and he would have died before he could get out of the school.

Annoyed and angry, Sean immediately activated the Yuyue Talisman, a cloud-piercing arrow that shot through the sorcerer's thin body, and then followed by a fireball spell that burned the sorcerer's internal organs into roasted meat.

In the end, several other trolls were all killed by Merry and the others, and none of them escaped.

This battle made Sean know the dangers of real war, and also allowed Sean to harvest a staff of Amani's hexery.

"Amani's Staff of Hex, green quality, excellent equipment. Spirit +3, Intelligence +3, Cast Power +2. ”

"Solidify magic: hex. Turn enemies into a frog. The shapeshifter is unable to cast any skills and control their body, depending on the situation. ”

One of the most interesting staffs is the one the troll sorcerer holds. Its attributes are average, but there is an advantage, that is, with this staff, Sean can pretend to be a troll sorcerer. And because the Sorcerer is a rare spell-casting profession and has a high status among the troll group, it is even more difficult to detect and debunk.

In addition to Sean, the others also picked up the weapons of those trolls, as well as the messy hanging ornaments on their bodies. These things will make it easier and more realistic for them to disguise.

Along the way, Sean and the five of them encountered several encounters, and the number of trolls killed by the five-person team has exceeded 20. Sean then realized that as long as he found a good group of teammates, it would not be too difficult to complete the task.

Of course, the mid-level professionals among trolls are not so easy to deal with. In five encounters, Sean and the others only killed one intermediary professional, the troll sorcerer they first encountered. As for the high-level professionals, they haven't seen any of them.

Early the next morning, Sean and the others finally arrived at a lush forest camp. Just looking at the size of the camp, it is certain that the camp is inhabited by at least five thousand trolls.

Looking at the camp from afar, Sean frowned: "Such a large camp, at least five thousand trolls, this is a whole army of trolls, there must be many troll doctors, troll magicians, and even troll sacrifices in it, it's not easy to deal with!" ”

Of course, it's not easy to deal with, and even if you get in, it's easy to be discovered. You must know that those spellcasters, such as witches and priests, have very keen perceptions and are also very intelligent, and it is easy to find out what is wrong with Sean and others, and then interrogate them. As long as it is cross-examined, it will definitely be exposed.

Although all three elven mages knew the language of trolls, they did not know much about this army. As long as they ask some very common questions, and the three elven mages can't answer them, then they will only face death.

But......

The elven female mage said: "With such a huge troll army, I'm afraid that dozens or hundreds of nearby troll groups have gathered here, and there won't be any more large troll troops nearby." If we really want to poison a large number of trolls, the right thing is right now. ”

Over the course of the day, they saw more and more trolls. And the death of so many trolls must have attracted the attention of the trolls. As long as they investigate carefully, then Sean and the others will become easier and easier to discover, and it will be even more difficult to find a second troll army to attack.

So Sean thought about it and decided to do it.

Of course, he had to consult others.

Merry, of course, had no objection, and the elven mage thought about it and agreed. The two male elven mages, who seem to have always been led by female mages, also agreed when they saw that the female mages agreed.

The five mages drank the Pretender potion and swaggered towards the camp.
