67. Destruction in the roar
With the cavalry in front of them, the speed of the troll army suddenly increased a lot, which is also the tactics that the trolls have always been accustomed to. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The traps that had been planted in the woods had little effect on them, and the number of less than two people lost was almost negligible compared to the force of more than 3,000 men.
"Don't let them go!"
The Zambu, who were leading their troops, shouted loudly.
They were both collaborators and competitors with each other, and when they saw the "undead" troops that had shocked them retreat, they were awakened by the persistence of victory and the desire to kill.
As for the myths that are supposed to be invulnerable, that's how the trolls see it-
Either the Fire Tree and the Burning Thorn tribe deliberately exaggerated their enemies in order to cover up their failures, or their witch doctors, of great wisdom, succeeded in containing that evil force.
This is the time to show the power of their own clan, and show others that they are the most powerful!
Charge!
Gnolls will also charge, but that's when they think they're sure or if they're beating the Reservoir Dogs.
But the troll's charge is different.
Once the trolls have begun to charge, they will not stop without the order of the commander, even if there is an abyss and hell in front of them, and they must move forward with the spirit of tearing the enemy apart. In some ways, they are similar to orcs, but orcs are berserk because they have been corrupted by evil powers, while trolls are innate in their fury nature.
The troll's eyes were stained blood-red, and they began to roar and run forward.
Trolls' long-range shooting is also one of their talents, including the throwing of stone spears and the accuracy of arrows, but firstly, the range of their weapons is relatively limited, and secondly, the Night Elves who are being chased by them have no intention of stopping to fight them, so they can't reflect their results for a while, but Lacasada is hesitant - didn't you see that he let the cavalry go around the front to intercept them in the first place?
"Do you want to let the cavalry in front of you retract?" Huntslayer Dakaz asked Lakasada that in his opinion, if he gathered his line now, he could eat the squad of Night Elves in front of him.
But the wise troll stroked the bone staff in his hand, showing a confident attitude: "The net is already open, and the fish in the net cannot escape, and wait a little longer to see if there are any big fish." β
Dakaz bowed his head and took orders, after all, Najib had orders, and this army Lakasada was the supreme leader.
Soon, the trees in their sight dispersed, and there was a narrow road with obvious height difference, in the forest, there was no such big cliff as a canyon, these dirt slopes were about four meters to more than ten meters, covered with vines, to be honest, trolls could climb up with their bare hands, and it was also within the range that bows and arrows and stone spears could throw, so they didn't worry much about the enemy setting up an ambush here.
The only surprise to them was that their people, the captured trolls of the Fire Tree Clan, were gagged and tied to wooden frames as if they were performing some kind of ritual.
The trolls, who were very fond of voodoo and rituals, stopped and reported the matter to their leader, the witch doctor, Rakasada.
"No matter what the other party wants to do, run over it."
Trolls have no mercy, especially for the weak.
But he deliberately emphasized one point: "Send those slaves over first." β
Lakasada did not forget that there were also powerful spellcasters among the enemies, and most of the ritual-related things were tied to the casters.
A small detachment of the trolls was immediately divided, and they were driven by the troops behind them with weapons, trembling and groping their way forward, although they were slaves, they had also heard the horror legends that had spread here, and knew that they were being called for cannon fodder at all, so they were very afraid.
But if you don't go, what you face them is the spear of your own people behind you, and you will die both horizontally and vertically, so you have a higher chance of surviving if you think about it.
Originally, they were mentally prepared to be destroyed by the enemy's terrifying spells, but unexpectedly, they passed the distance between them and the wooden captives without hindrance, and came to their side.
This made La Casada, who firmly believed that something would happen, also stunned, what is the situation?
Why did it pass like this, shouldn't there be an attack like a spell, but he had the idea of sacrificing those slaves to observe the other party's spellcaster.
La Casada frowned, and when Dakaz on the side asked him what he should do, his voice became rough and gruff because of dissatisfaction: "Let those captives down, although they are all some scum, I have something to ask them." β
La Casada's order was quickly passed on, but when the slaves were relieved, they were heard shouting hoarsely: "Run, this is a trap!" β
As if with this sound, the earth shook, and the place where they came suddenly and inexplicably shook up, and a wall of earth tens of meters high rose from the soil, and a shadow appeared majestically above it: "You dare to break into this ancient land, intruder!" β
Not only the earth wall, but the trolls found that the dirt slopes around them were also beginning to rise in slopes, and not only that, but the ground beneath their feet seemed to be sinking to fill the heights of those lands, and the velociraptors screamed restlessly, making circles wildly, allowing their knights to scramble to manipulate, and the uprooted trees tumbled down, smashing the trolls that had not had time to dodge into pulp in an instant.
"Wise witch doctor, what is this?"
"The power of the enemy caster." Lakasada is also the first time to see a spell that can change the terrain, a spell of this scale requires at least a level 6 mage to exhaust all the magic power in his body to do it, it can't be just Darth Rema's handiwork, but this spell itself is not difficult, remember how Eren once carried wood?
Only this time, he handed over the project to the apprentices led by Harvis, who used the spell using the improvised spell seal that Eren had made.
Putting things into practice is Allen's philosophy, and now, he will light the first fire of this war.
"Feel the wrath of the Land of Fire!" Alan stood on the towering earthen wall, shouting like a god.
With his shout, waves of magic suddenly erupted from the troll's feet, and then bursting flames appeared, engulfing their enemies. And as soon as the flame was ignited, it quickly spread out to the surrounding area.
"Oil?"
The trolls realized something.
A few tried to climb up the dirt slope, but before they could show their skill, they were nailed to the wall by arrows that sprang out from the dirt slope.
"Witch Doctor?"
Lakasada was speechless for a moment, his lips pursed, but he couldn't say a word.
He didn't know exactly how to do this, voodoo was generally cast on people, but what about people, the one who stood on the high earthen wall and looked down on them like a god?
He could really stand up to his terrible powerβif it weren't for Dakaz holding him, he found himself wanting to bow down to that terrible figure and beg for his forgiveness.
Look around, the troll soldiers are driven by flames and arrows, panicked, they don't lack courage, but their spears and arrows can't touch the enemies above the cliffs, and on the contrary, their enemies can easily use the height difference to attack them. It's also a terrible idea to climb up, as the walls are greased and slippery, and more importantly, there's too little room to maneuver and it's a priority target for opposing sentries.
"Lord Witch Doctor, it is not advisable to stay here for long, we must immediately rush out of this unfavorable terrain, although they attack fiercely, but each wave is not numerous, which means that their numbers are not very large, as long as they can regroup and fight in the same open field, they are not our opponents." Dakhaz rationally analyzed the current situation and admonished.
He deserves to be the most elite warrior of the Amani tribe, and he can see the key point at a glance. It's a pity that the command of this force is still the witch doctor Lakasada, and only with his approval can he issue an order to command the troll troops to break through.
Is it really that easy?
Lakasada felt for a moment feeling strongly uneasy and physically and mentally exhausted, but he did not refute Dakaz's opinion, for that was the only thing to be done for the time being, and the flames and arrows had cut through their troops, and even if they were reluctant, they were forced to move forward.
"Just listen to you."
Dakaz bowed his head solemnly, and then raised his arms and shouted: "Break through, warriors, rush out from here first, and then fight the enemy!" β
The trolls had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and when they heard this order, they all quickly spread their legs and galloped, and those cavalry riding velociraptors were in the lead, and the terrain of the forest was mainly open, so that this narrow and narrow would soon end.
But the captives captured by the Night Elves screamed frantically, persuading their people: "Don't, don't go forward!" β
No one stopped to wait for them to say something, only Dakaz subconsciously glanced at them.
So what's ahead?
He narrowed his eyes but didn't see any enemy ambush, just when he thought that the captives had been plotted against him, suddenly, an explosion that pierced his eardrums and dyed his vision into a white light quickly took away his five senses, destroying the will of every troll present to continue fighting.
