Azeroth New World

Chapter 21 1 Big Wave of Trolls Strike


Bridget was busy commanding the camp, and Kant approached with the elves. Because there were outsiders, Kant saluted, showing due respect for her as the leader of the team.

"Captain Bridget, Sola Starbreaker Ranger explained some things to me, and suggested that we retreat overnight. I think it makes sense, so I ask you to make a decision."

Bridget first looked at the elf, then turned to Kant, her eyes were full of scrutiny, as if to say, "When did you two get together under my nose?"

Kant looked calm, showing a clear conscience.

Bridget didn't see any clues from the two, so she focused on the problem Kant mentioned.

"Retreat overnight? Marching at night is a very dangerous act? What did you find?" Bridget was a little puzzled.

Kant signaled the elf to tell her findings and conjectures again, Bridget frowned and thought, but she did not fully trust the elf ranger.

Kant had no choice but to take over the topic and said: "Remember the topic we discussed before? It is about the advantages and disadvantages of the troll's tribal social structure and the impact of the fishing and hunting lifestyle on war."

"The civilization of the trolls determines that their organizational form and logistical supplies cannot easily support large-scale army operations. Now I understand the price they have to pay for this." Kant's tone was full of sighs.

After being reminded by Kant, combined with what the elf said just now, Bridget finally realized, and she said in a surprised tone: "Sacrifice the weak tribe, and grow the large tribe?"

Kant nodded silently.

"That is to say, all the nearby troll tribes have begun to gather towards their central area not long ago, and a big eruption may occur at any time, and we just happened to bump into it?" Bridget was deduced by herself. jumped.

Now that the matter was getting serious, Bridget ordered the team to pack up quickly before she had time to worry about changing the order.

But now there is another problem before her, how can a team of 300 people get out of the forest safely at night?

"Everyone can follow me, the night in the forest has little effect on me." The elf volunteered.

Bridget frowned and looked at the elves. Although the possibility of elves turning to trolls was almost zero, following an elf in the forest on a dark night was tantamount to entrusting the fate of the entire team to the troll. Elf hands.Bridget could not make up her mind.

"It doesn't matter. Our family's moa knights have the ability to fight at night. Marching at night will not have much impact. We can let our family's knights take charge of the periphery, and the mercenaries will follow along in the middle."

Kant said it very easily, but Bridget and Elf looked sideways.The moa knight beside them once again washed away their cognition.

But now is really not the time to worry about this, Bridget immediately issued an order: "Quick! Everyone, immediately abandon the excess luggage and move forward overnight."

"The mercenaries follow the moa knight, be careful not to fall behind!"

Perhaps because of the seriousness in the officer's tone, no one complained, and everyone immediately packed their bags and prepared to leave.

At first, Bridget was still worried, but she was relieved when she realized that, as Kant said, the moa knight was still walking on the ground in the forest at night.The human mercenaries completely let go of the control of the moas below them, letting them follow the team with their eyes darkened.

After a night of fearful marching, the team finally walked out of the forest, looked up at the sky, and the sun had already risen.Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, including Kant.

Bridget turned her head and smiled at Kant beside her.

The battle in the troll forest this time is finally a perfect end!

As the sun rose, the eagles on duty during the day also began to soar in the sky.

Kant closed his eyes and used the vision of an eagle to observe the movement of the forest, and gradually his face became serious, which gave Bridget next to him a very bad premonition.

"Hurry up and send a letter to the general, we are in trouble." Kant opened his eyes and said to Bridget with a wry smile.

……

Extract the magic power, gather a piece of fire elemental energy in your hand, use your spirit to guide the fire elemental energy in your hand, and slowly guide it into the flame spar at the base of the magic mortar, and the magical aura will light up again on the magic mortar.

Kant wiped the sweat from his brow.

In order to replenish energy for the five magic mortars, Kant's magic power was almost drained.

Sit quietly and meditate slowly to restore the magic power. It was not until evening that Kant walked out of the door of the alchemy room.

The sentry post is full of busy people preparing for battle. People already know that the army of trolls is coming soon.

Kant looked up and saw Bridget standing alone in the highest tower of the castle.

Slowly walking into the tower, Kant turned his back to the setting sun, did not speak, and just silently accompanied Bridget.

After a while, Bridget suddenly said, "Actually, I knew it when you first entered the forest."

"I know." Kant replied calmly with a smile, "How can there be anything in this sentry that can be hidden from you."

When Bridget heard this, she turned and stared at Kant and continued, "Actually, the reason why we received the task of detecting the movement of the troll spellcaster was my initiative to apply to the general."

"Oh, is that so?" Although it was an inquiry, Kant's tone was very calm, as if he was not surprised at all.

"In your battle to rescue the patrol team, I saw the battle process of the moa knight chasing and killing trolls in the forest, and I knew that the moa knight was the nemesis of trolls. So in the letter to the general, I report that the number of troll spellcasters may be increasing, and ask the General to give this task to our sentry to investigate."

"I was just planning to let you hand over the command of the Moa Knights, and then I would lead them into the forest to check the trolls. I didn't expect you to sneak into the forest behind my back."

"You entered the forest for the second time and didn't return until the next morning. I waited in your room all night, worried all night, and regretted all night. People like you should not die at the hands of trolls. selfishness, and you are in danger."

When she said these words, Bridget's voice trembled a little, as if she was still afraid.

"I'm fine now, um~, actually, for me, fighting trolls is not as dangerous as you think. And it is precisely because of the non-stop fighting with trolls that I was able to advance to the fifth ring so quickly , so you don't need to take this matter to heart."

With a smile on her face, Bridget took a step closer to Kant, almost sticking to Kant's body, her eyes were full of tenderness, she looked at Kant and said: "It's the first time I heard from a mage that fighting is not dangerous, and I have never seen it before. Which mage is willing to take the initiative to go to the battlefield. Don't you often say that the mage's battle place should be in the laboratory, not the battlefield?"

"I am different from ordinary mages. I am a man who is destined to become an archmage. How can those mediocre people compare with me."

"Pfft." Bridget couldn't help laughing out loud before seeing Kant so glib.

Helping Kant straighten the robe on his chest, Bridget smiled tenderly and said, "Yes, you are destined to become an archmage, so don't die in this battle. Promise I, if the last guard post cannot be guarded, I must leave immediately without any hesitation. I know that with your ability, the troll will never be able to stop you if you want to leave."

"What about you?" Kant grabbed Bridget's hand and asked, staring at her closely.

Turning her head to avoid Kant's scorching gaze, Bridget looked at the busy people inside the sentry post, and said calmly: "Look at them, because my order is willing to stay here at the cost of their lives, how can I abandon them and escape alone. I am the daughter of the Abydis family, a paladin of the Knights of the Silver Hand. The holy light will guide me to fight until the last moment!"

Kant knew before coming up that it would be difficult to persuade Bridget to retreat with him when nothing could be done.Now it seems that there is no possibility at all.

At this moment, in Kant's eyes, Bridget was emitting a kind of radiance, and what words could shake her determination!

"Don't worry! The sentry post will definitely be held!" After saying this firmly, Kant turned and left the tower.

Kant found Sola Broken Star on the city wall, handed the elf ranger a quiver of magic arrows and said, "Actually, you don't need to stay."

The elf raised his head and made sure that Kant was talking to him, so he pointed to the mercenary beside him and said in a natural tone: "Look, my companions are willing to stay and fight, so why would I leave alone?"

A very simple sentence shocked Kant's heart again, and also shocked Osmar who passed by.

It wasn't until this moment that Kant realized that the entire sentry seemed to be the one who cherished his life the most.

An army of nearly ten thousand trolls is attacking, and the general Alfred Abedis, who is in charge of Stratholme, will take three days at the fastest to lead the army to arrive.

Faced with such a huge disparity in strength, everyone at the sentry post can naturally leave, but the people behind the sentry post will definitely suffer.

Bridget calculated the strength in her hands. With the strength of the sentry and the city defense, it seems that it is not impossible to block the troll army, as long as it lasts for three days!It is victory!

Bridget shared her thoughts with everyone, and the others applauded, but no one stood up and said that they would abandon the city and run away.

Among these people, there are knights formally prepared by the kingdom. They have received knight education since childhood and insisted on their knight beliefs. They can fight regardless of their lives, and Kant can understand.Most of the remaining ordinary soldiers and mercenaries were from nearby residents, with their families and neighbors behind them. They were willing to fight to the death, and Kant could understand it.

Then why is an elf wandering in the human world willing to risk his life for such a simple and simple reason?

No wonder the soldiers, although they would respect the mage, often secretly despise the mage in their hearts.Indeed, almost no mage can possess such a fearless spirit of sacrifice like a warrior, this kind of spirit of 'doing what you know you can't do, even though thousands of people will do it'.

Just like what is written in the epic story, at critical moments, the 'warriors' always stand up and go forward, regardless of sacrifice to turn the tide, but it is rare to see the mage rushing to the forefront.

I am afraid that in the eyes of soldiers, mages are a group of cowards who have great power but are timid and cowardly.

"The reason is very simple. This is the power of belief." The biological intelligence brain answered Kant's question just now.

"The power of faith?" Kant said silently.

"Yes, it is the power of belief! In the world built by our scientific and technological civilization, beliefs and beliefs are too illusory, and it is difficult for people to see the intuitive manifestation of power. But this world is different. Spiritual powers such as beliefs and beliefs are all It can be transformed into real power and displayed. Didn’t the lady paladin just now become a paladin precisely because her heart and beliefs conform to the way of the holy light.”

"The trolls in the distant forest, you can despise their beliefs and civilizations, but you cannot deny their piety. Don't they gain power from their 'gods' just because of their beliefs?"

"So in such a world, no matter who they are, their hearts tend to become particularly pure. This kind of purity may be used for 'good' or 'evil'. When this kind of purity is brought to the extreme, it will be Give them great power."

"This elf's willingness to stay here is her persistence in her beliefs and an experience of her soul. According to the recorded epic data, many people will achieve breakthroughs on the battlefield or after battles. For example, the five heroes of the Black Gate Turayang, after witnessing the killing of Marshal Lothar of the Alliance, suddenly realized on the battlefield, the power of the Holy Light increased greatly, defeated and captured the chief of the tribe alive. Therefore, most fighters are not afraid of fighting or sacrifice, they will fight Treat it as a way to improve your strength, and regard death in battle as an honor."

"In our world, such a person can be said to be a well-deserved hero." Kant suddenly sighed, and then fell into deep thought.

"What about myself? Is my belief in pursuing my own 'path' firm enough?" Kant asked himself silently, this time the biological intelligence brain did not make a sound.
