Chapter 21: Troll Invasion
"Well, it's been a long time since I've seen Moon Shadow! Have you seen him? Illidan asked curiously. Tyrande shook his head.
"After I saw the teacher that day, I never saw him again." Malfurion scratched the back of his head and thought for a moment.
"He left yesterday." A few people were chatting as Lilith slowly walked out of the bushes and said.
"Huh? How did we not know? Illidan frowned, obviously displeased.
"Maybe he's afraid of parting scenes!" Tyrande sighed and said lightly.
"Then why did he leave, didn't we just come back?" Malfurion asked, looking at Lilith.
"You should ask your father about this, he left after his father looked for him." Lilith shook her head, turned and walked back into the woods.
It's been days since she left the Moonlight Glade, and Moonshadow is approaching the depths of Felwood. The beasts here were no longer a threat to themselves, and Moon Shadow walked briskly along the path through the woods. He was worried about something, and he didn't say goodbye, and he estimated that the next time he met his friends, it would be embarrassing, and he didn't know how to explain it to them.
In the evening, he met the old tree man who had led him out of the Felwood Forest for the first time, it was a very tall old tree, with a face that could speak, and Moon Shadow was startled when he first saw it.
"Long time no see! Dear Tree Elders. Moon Shadow smiled and greeted the old tree. The old tree seemed very happy to see the moon shadow, stretched his branches, and moved his body by the way, and suddenly countless birds flew up, and the earth shook twice.
"It's you, little one, and it won't be long! I just fell asleep. The deep voice of the old tree man resounded in the air, accompanied by the rustle of branches and leaves.
Moon Shadow was embarrassed for a while, it was true that thirty years was sometimes not enough sleep for these ancient trees, Moon Shadow liked this old tree man very much, he was very kind and talkative. The advantage of living for a long time is that he is knowledgeable, and Moon Shadow chatted happily with the old tree man all night. I also learned a lot from the old tree. The next day, he said goodbye to the old tree man and embarked on the journey.
After entering the Gray Valley, Moon Shadow walked very fast, because there were basically no beasts more than the 4th order in the Gray Valley, and Moon Shadow rode Silver Dew directly from the depths of the forest, and the speed of Silver Dew in the forest was very fast, and his strength of the fourth-order elf basically did not encounter any trouble. However, while passing through the Night Dao Valley, he encountered a rare elite bear with a third-order peak. It was he and Yinlu who broke into its territory and provoked it, but its strength at the peak of the third order was similar to that of Yinlu. Directly experimented by the Moon Shadow into a new spell over the years, and finally got a good bear skin and a large amount of bear meat, rare elite meat is a treasure, which can greatly increase the physique of the eater. That night, he was eaten a lot by Moon Shadow and Silver Dew, and of course Silver Dew must have eaten a lot more than Moon Shadow.
Gradually, she leaned into Essarine, and Moonshadow's heart became heavy, and Silver Dew was drinking water by the river. Moon Shadow was resting on the shore, when suddenly Moon Shadow suddenly felt a stuffiness in her head and almost fainted. Moon Shadow was shocked, and secretly said that it was not good, he had learned this trick with Mavi, this trick was called "Stuffy Stick", it was a skill of a stalker, fortunately, Moon Shadow's mental strength was strong, and he didn't have time to react for a moment, and the "Ice Nova" was immediately released, and then directly used the "Flashing Technique" to teleport to the side of Silver Dew. Then he opened the "Arcane Enchantment" for himself. Turning his head, he saw that there was a black-scarfed humanoid creature with its feet frozen to the ground, still struggling. The creature was seven feet tall and had a sloppy body, green skin, a mess of purple hair on the top of its head, and two long fangs peeking out of the mask.
Lunaris had learned about this ancient creature, the Jungle Trolls, and Cenarius had said that it was possible that the Night Elves had evolved from these creatures. The exact origin of the Night Elves is not known, and this race was formed a long, long time ago, leaving insufficient conclusive evidence to prove or disprove any hypotheses in this regard. All that is certain is that a tribe of nocturnal humanoids once lived on the shores of the original Well of Eternity. And the boundless power of the Well turned them into the Night Elves as we know them today.
Apparently many trolls believe that the so-called "nocturnal humanoids" are trolls. This hypothesis still has some credibility, after all, in terms of physique and appearance, trolls and night elves do have some similarity. In addition, long before the Night Elves gained great power, the Trolls ruled the continent of Ancient Kalimdor.
On the other hand, most Night Elves find this hypothesis both absurd and overtly malicious. They were quick to point out that the Night Elves had defeated a large number of nearby troll tribes when they first rose to prominence. As a result, the trolls have a sense of awe for their new adversary. This early conflict may have been at the root of the troll's hypothesis of elven ancestry. Trolls hate the Night Elves (a sentiment that continues to this day) and wish to spiritually erase the Night Elves and their achievements. In addition, attributing the Night Elves to the descendants of the trolls may also make the trolls more emotionally receptive to the brutal fact of being defeated, though these creatures are savage, primitive and cannibalistic, and have been mortal enemies of the elves for tens of thousands of years.
No matter what, Moon Shadow didn't relent, and his left hand raised a myriad of arcane energy, gathering and blasting directly at the troll stalker. The troll stalker saw Moon Shadow's "arcane barrage" attacking, and he was overwhelmed by the huge energy, and if he wanted to hit it head-on, he would definitely be blown to slag. The moment the huge arcane energy ball touched the troll's body, his whole body was suddenly shrouded in a shadow, and the energy of the "arcane barrage" bubbled and disappeared, but the troll thief was still beaten back several steps by the impact of the magic, and some red liquid appeared on the black scarf. Moon Shadow was surprised for a while, when he was an intermediate mage, he could blow up a five-meter pit in the ground, but now that he is a magician, this trick didn't work, which naturally disappointed him. Moonshadow frowned as he noticed the shadow on the Troll Stalker, a life-saving skill he recognized as the "Cloak of Shadows", a life-saving skill that only high-level stalkers could learn. The "Cloak of Shadow" is the most useful skill for Stalkers against mages, as it not only disables magic control effects, but also greatly reduces magic damage.
The troll stalker took advantage of the effect of the shadow cloak and immediately rushed towards the moon shadow, the speed was extremely fast, the dagger in his hand stabbed the moon shadow's throat, "poof" but his attack was immediately blocked by the "arcane enchantment", seeing that the other party could not break through the barrier, he was not worried about his safety for a while, after all, with his magician-level arcane enchantment, a high-level stalker could not break it in a short time, the important thing is that ash valley has been under the rule of the night elves, why did a troll stalker suddenly appear here. "Roar" Yinlu stared at the sneak and rushed directly, Moon Shadow whistled and signaled to Yinlu to let it retreat, such a small role didn't need Yinyue to help. A steel two-handed sword immediately appeared in his hand. A backhand stabbed at the throat of the troll stalker, and the troll stalker dodged when he saw the blade stabbing at one side, but Moon Shadow had a smile on the corner of his mouth. The moment the troll dodged, the blade suddenly slashed across his neck at a great speed. The troll clutched his throat with both hands, and his eyes showed a look of disbelief, and the blood kept coming out, and he slowly fell to the ground. This move is called "suppression" in the secret meaning of the weapon station, as long as it is used, it hits 100%, and it is the only skill he learned from Rocky besides stance. However, there are many restrictions on the use of this move, and it can only be used in a split second after the opponent dodges and parries, so it is very important to grasp the timing.
Moon Shadow groped around the troll's corpse and found a parchment scroll, a newly drawn map of Ashenvale. The map was very detailed, and Moonshadow frowned, and he felt as if he had discovered some shocking secret. Not daring to stay, Moon Shadow immediately rushed to Atherine, the troll unusually entered the territory of the Night Elves with a newly drawn map, there must be some ulterior secrets in between.
Finally, ten days later, he arrived at Atherine, and as soon as Moon Shadow entered the small building, the maid reported that Vaskey had come looking for him. Moon Shadow sighed and went to greet him before he had time to clean up the dust all over his body, he didn't have much friendship with Vasqi, and it wouldn't be as simple as Vasqi coming to see him specifically, so it was expected that it must have been sent by Azhara to convey some kind of message.
Sure enough, as soon as Vaski met, he said that the queen asked him to attend a meeting in the evening, and Moon Shadow was stunned, he never participated in the political affairs of the upper elves or anything, how could Aishara let him participate in the meeting of the upper level in the evening. Thinking about it, Moon Shadow was a little puzzled, but if it was Azhara's order, then it would be reasonable to participate. After speaking, Vaschi quickly left, and Moon Shadow stood on the balcony enjoying the coffee that Lisa had just brewed for him.
In the evening, Vasqi came to pick him up in person, and on the way Vasqi revealed a little news to him. The night elves' sworn enemies, the trolls, have invaded again, the elves and the trolls had a big war ten thousand years ago, using the magic elves to drive the trolls back to the southeast forest, ten thousand years have been calm, I didn't expect them to gather to attack the elves' territory again, and now several places have been invaded, and a large number of night elf civilians have been killed. Moon Shadow sighed, the troll thief he had met in Ashen Vale made sense, he didn't expect such a big thing to happen in the few months he had been in the Moonlight Glade.
Walking through the buildings, Moon Shadow was led by Vaschi to a large hall. This is the place where Azhara deals with government affairs, to be honest, this is the first time that Moon Shadow has arrived, there are many gorgeously dressed upper elves standing in the hall, arguing with each other, Azhara is sitting on his king's seat, rubbing his forehead with one finger, and there is a hint of joy in his eyes when he sees Moon Shadow coming. Moon Shadow slowly approached the hall and saluted Azhara, stepping aside to wait.
