Another day passed, and the migration party of the Frost Troll tribe arrived near the Alva family's estate.

The rotational caregiving activities began after the tunnels were dug up, and today it was Duncan's turn to be on duty.

He climbed up to the study of the manor house, which had not yet collapsed, and through the window of the study, he observed the forest in the direction of the mountains.

It had only been a few days, and Duncan's vigilance had not yet been worn away by time, and he soon noticed an anomaly in the forest.

Squinted eyes looked deeper into the woods, carefully discerning if the environment had changed.

An unusual wind suddenly crept into Duncan's ears along the half-open window, and many swaying figures appeared under the withered yellow autumn leaves.

Duncan's eyes widened at once, and he held his breath nervously, checking again and again until the troll's scout came into view, and he crouched down in fright, his back lightly pressed against the wall, calming his heart that was beating with nervousness.

Here it comes! It's really coming! Trolls!

The large-scale war between the trolls and the humans ended long ago in the last century, and the trolls lost completely, and the wisdom of humanity defeated the ugly trolls, breaking them up into countless small tribes.

If you don't live in a forest close to the border, it's hard for a normal human to encounter a troll.

Today was Duncan's first sight of a troll, and just a quick glance triggered the fear that remained in the genes of ancient humans.

Especially after Byrne talked about what happened to him, the fear deepened.

I have to go back and tell Boss Xiang Eun quickly!

Duncan immediately rose from the ground and carefully climbed down the bare steel building materials to the ground, lightly walking through the ruins of the rearranged buildings, scattering a large amount of dust along the way.

The entrance to the basement had been blocked by a stone slab, and Duncan slipped into it along the gap and gently topped it so that the slate could slowly slide down the trapdoor and cover the entrance.

A simple chain mechanism is triggered, and a small handful of dust spills onto the stone slab, creating the illusion that there has been no human activity for a long time.

It is impossible to completely eliminate, they can only disguise as much as possible.

Duncan burrowed into the tunnels to report the news, and the trolls unsurprisingly discovered the strange manor.

The scouts of the Frost Troll tribe were keenly aware of the camouflage of the mysterious totem, and the trolls who were more familiar with totemic magic soon discovered the Alva family's manor through the faint flow of natural magic.

The two troll scouts were startled to see that the ordinary forest in front of them had suddenly turned into the ruins of a manor, and after a few muttered words, one of the scouts turned to inform the leader.

The troll leader learned of the report of the troll scout, took two steps forward with a bone spear, and took several warriors of the tribe to take the initiative to go to the thunder in the flesh.

The leaders of the tribes are to charge with their followers, and they do not hide behind armies to command, like the leaders of the humans.

The young and old trolls slowed down, protected in the middle by the strong troll warriors.

These days, they have encountered a lot of zombie beast attacks, the small tribe of trolls, the strong people who break the rules are almost extinct, only the last main vein of the troll tribe in a mysterious place can know that the end is coming, and other small troll tribes don't know that there is such a thing as doomsday.

So at first, the Frost Troll tribe took a lot of detours when facing zombie beasts, such as simply treating the wound and roasting the zombie beast's meat to eat......

At the cost of the deaths of nearly a hundred trolls, they realized the horror of zombie beasts, and began to consciously protect themselves, no longer using the wound-for-life fighting method.

The leader of the trolls walked through the edge of the mysterious totem and saw the house in the distance that had not collapsed enough, and he was vigilant, but not too heavy.

Because it's just a ruin, it's probably going to be in a state where no one exists.

Thinking of this, the troll leader led his subordinates and stepped into the range of the totem.

Poof!

At this moment, python-like vines suddenly appeared on the ground beneath the trolls' feet, winding around them.

The onslaught hit the trolls who weren't much prepared, and six of the trolls who didn't have time to dodge were bound by vines.

The vines that broke through the ground kept popping up, and the troll leader reacted quickly, retreating one after another to avoid the entanglement of the vines.

Multiple vines wrapped around the trolls' bodies in succession, and the trolls began to swing their weapons to slash through the vines that appeared underground.

Faced with the thigh-thick vines of ordinary people, the trolls used the sharp bone knives and strong strength in their hands to easily split the vines that emerged from the ground.

The vines wrapped around their legs, as long as they cut a hole, can basically be forcibly broken by the strength of the legs of adult trolls, and quickly move to dodge before more vines are entangled.

The vines that the forbidden vine spreads out are not fast, as long as they don't stay in the same position for a long time, they still have a chance to break free before being wrapped in more vines.

These vines didn't cause much trouble to the trolls.

"All back here!" After retreating more than ten meters, the troll leader finally found the edge of the forbidden vine's domain coverage, and hurriedly summoned the trolls who had been freed from the vine's entanglement.

A troll wizard following the group moved closer to the troll leader, looked at the broken vines not far away, and said, "These vines have the aura of natural magic, much like totems. ”

"Totem?" Troll bosses can also sense a small number of anomalous natural mana fluctuations, but not as accurately as the wizards.

After the troll wizard confirmed, he immediately asked the troll to ask the high priest to come and check it out.

After a while, the High Priest came to the troll leader's side, crouched down, continued to hold the stone statue in his left hand, and touched the ground with his right hand.

Imperceptible natural magic penetrated into the soil through the palm of his hand, sensed countless vines buried in the ground, and followed the connection of the vines to discover the forbidden vine totem in the center of the manor.

"Found it, an ancient totem, very practical, it takes a lot of effort to make it." The troll high priest's wrinkled face showed a slight emotion, and then continued to infuse it with natural magic.

The other side......

"Huh?"

Xiang En, who was at the end of the tunnel, frowned, and his face collapsed directly.

He lost control of the Forbidden Vine Totem, and a stronger force took control of the totem away......

"Xiang En, what's wrong?" Andrea, who was on the side, heard Xiang En's soft groan, and immediately asked with concern.

No matter how small the sound in the narrow tunnel, other people can hear it, not to mention the matter of their food and clothing parents Xiang Eun, Naka and the others immediately cast concerned eyes.

"Control of the totem has been taken away by trolls."

Xiang En didn't beat around the bush, explained the situation succinctly, and then immediately exchanged a skill from the talent book: Migratory Bird.

With a squeeze of his hands, a pure white bird made of magic power flew upward, penetrating the soil layer and disappearing, and Xiang En also closed his eyes at the same time.
