It was a very sunny day, cloudless and sunny.
The wind is blowing slowly, which makes people feel very comfortable. The sunshine is very soft. Even though it is summer, it is not too dazzling.
The Elf Princess's legion quickly set off in one direction in such a comfortable environment.
Perhaps it was like today's weather. They moved very quickly, but apart from encountering some troll settlements on the way, they found no trace of the troll army at all.
After going a full 500 kilometers, we found nothing except large and small troll settlements. These are still small troll settlements. A village or tribe of three to five hundred people is already very large. , the small one is even a family of trolls living together, just four or five people.
This place looks more like a frontier area. There is no troll city at all. It seems that no one is at home.
But this situation does not reassure the Elf Princess, because this situation is too dangerous. You can't be sure where the enemy is. If the enemy suddenly appears somewhere, you can't find it at all, especially if the enemy launches A sneak attack will only make the situation worse.
She did not allow this situation to continue, and directly mobilized the legion to start exploring in a farther direction, trying to find traces of the enemy no matter what.
After all, she was in a country of trolls. It would be unreasonable if the enemy didn't even react at all. It would only make her think that these trolls had discovered her and were still plotting some conspiracy.
A morning has passed, but there is still no result. Her legion has even spread out to a range of 700 to 800 kilometers. This is already the limit. Otherwise, once the enemy is encountered, there will be no time to shrink the organization's strength to resist the enemy.
Although there are constant reports of the discovery of troll gathering areas, there is no large troll city at all, let alone a troll legion.
If this continues, she will have to order the entire legion to shrink. After all, if the troops are spread too thin, it is very likely to be attacked by trolls. In the troll's territory, no matter how the opponent mobilizes its own strength, The speed and intensity are far superior to his own.
In the afternoon, she looked at the sun that was gradually setting. The temperature had reached the hottest time of the day, which made her a little anxious.
Wiping the sweat from her forehead, the Elf Princess finally gave the order to shrink the army, no longer conduct large-scale reconnaissance, and retreat towards the rear. After all, the current situation is a bit too weird. If it continues like this, it is very likely that someone will inadvertently Enter the enemy's ambush circle.
The order was conveyed quickly, but only a quarter of an hour later, she revoked her order.
Because the scouts in front finally discovered the troll city. Of course, if it was a small troll city, it would be difficult for her to be moved. But when the legion in front came back with news, there were thirty-five people in that city. Kilometers, nearly forty kilometers in diameter, she suddenly felt relieved.
This can explain many things, why the troll army was not found in such a large area, and not even the troll city was found.
It turns out that they were all absorbed into this even larger troll city.
After all, in the style of trolls, it seems that in this border area, there are either small villages or a small city surrounding it. It is difficult to find other situations.
A city as big as this one is naturally unlikely to allow other cities to appear around it. They are still unclear about the situation inside the Troll Kingdom, but it is the same in the border areas.
As for the troll army, I am afraid they are all in that city. There is no troll army around. It is only possible that their disguise is good enough and the trolls do not know that they have arrived in this area. Making this judgment, since they have not acted, it is their turn now.
However, the distance between the two sides is very far, reaching nearly 900 kilometers. If it were not for a scout detachment under the Elf Princess,
I arrived here unexpectedly due to the distance, and I'm afraid I still can't find it.
After contacting the surrounding elf scouts, dozens of elf scouts quickly arrived here and began to jointly investigate the troll city.
About thousands of people quickly appeared near this troll city.
However, this is a huge troll city. In the early stage, only its periphery can be investigated, and the interior is still very difficult to penetrate.
Of course, at night, everything is hard to say. For the night elves to which the elf princess belongs, night is the most suitable battlefield. Because of their evolution, they are naturally close to the night, although they do not move much during the day. images, but night is their real home.
A large number of night elves were mobilized to this troll city, and the time soon reached the afternoon. As dusk approached, three thousand night elves began to move around this troll city. They had begun to become familiar with the terrain here. Find a suitable breakthrough and sneak into this troll city to conduct reconnaissance.
Time passed little by little, and the main force of the elven army in the rear was gathering and moving towards the troll city.
Although they were gathered together, their speed was not affected too much. After all, even if the entire legion was gathered together, it would not completely form a legion and act like an ordinary legion.
Instead, they still maintained a certain degree of flexibility, being relatively dispersed and relatively gathered together. This was the most efficient way for the Elf Legion to move forward. Otherwise, they would not have much room to move if they were crowded together. On the contrary, it is a restriction to each other.
Night soon fell, and after dusk passed, the huge troll city crawled on the ground like a giant beast.
This is a square troll city with a one-kilometer-high city wall. The troll guards on it wear armor that is much more sophisticated than the trolls the Elf Legion has seen before, with more cast iron pieces. The protective parts and area are also larger, almost protecting the entire upper body.
Their helmets are also very complete, except for the face, other parts are completely covered. ap.
Although the lower body does not have much protection, it is not like other trolls who just wear a small torn leather skirt.
They wear complete standard leather skirts, inlaid with iron sheets, which naturally provide good protection.
The guy in his hand is no longer a rough mace, but a battle ax different from other trolls. It is double-edged. Even at night, you can still see its cold light, as if it is ready to choose people to devour at any time. The wild beasts always have a dangerous aura that makes people unconsciously feel it, and they don't know how many lives these battle axes have killed before such a feeling occurs.
These trolls also look stronger, and their muscles are more explosive. Their eyes are fierce, and under the moonlight at night, they are even more emitting a scarlet light, like wild beasts wandering in the wilderness, waiting for them. prey appears.
On the city wall, there are fixed troll guards standing guard, but they are farther apart from each other, usually fifteen meters, and some farther away are twenty or thirty meters, but behind them, there is a Teams of patrols, ranging from ten to fifteen people, patrolled the city wall at a certain speed and pattern.
This kind of defense is already very tight. Although the distance between the fixed posts is relatively large, the troll patrols moving back and forth make up for this shortcoming very well and reduce a certain amount of staffing. After all, even trolls can Don't you like to work as a guard at night like this after enjoying a comfortable life? Isn't it good to sleep peacefully? !
There are many torches on the city wall, but the distance between them is tens or even hundreds of meters. Although these torches can illuminate a certain range, the effect is reduced too much at such a long distance.
The role of these torches is more to announce the existence of trolls, and their symbolic significance is greater. After all, in the wild, no matter what kind of creature dares to light a fire, it still needs enough courage and strength, because once it is lit, it can easily be burned by other people. biological discovery, that represents exposure, and once
If you are exposed, you will only put yourself in danger, which will only make it easier for you to become the prey of others, be hunted by other hunters, and become the other party's food or some inconspicuous trophy.
Trolls are nocturnal monsters. Even if they establish their own kingdom and have security, they become more energetic at night. Although they already like to sleep at night, the biological instinct cannot be changed so easily. of.
Their eyesight at night is very good and they can see very clearly, but for these trolls who are accustomed to comfort, they have begun to become slack.
Although I heard that there seems to be a kind of creature called human beings that invaded the kingdom of trolls, which made many trolls feel humiliated. After all, they have been invading and controlling the surrounding areas for so long. What? I have often heard of people daring to do something to them.
However, there is no information from them indicating that human legions have appeared. Although they are still in the border area, it is considered a hinterland to a certain extent and is very far away from the real border.
And the intelligence coming from the top of the trolls has confirmed that their city is not on the advancing route of several human legions. Moreover, it is so far away from the place where humans invaded. Even if humans want to come, I am afraid it will not be possible for a while. Something to do later.
These trolls really want humans to come here, let them know what the power of trolls is, and turn them into their own food. It is said that human beings taste quite good.
However, while the trolls guarding the city were dreaming carelessly, the "human beings" they talked about had already arrived and began to take action.
Under the cover of the night, a group of night elves were like shadows, moving quickly and quietly on the dark land, emerging from the forest near the troll city, and in a very short time Inside, they have already passed through the open space between the troll city and the city.
They came to the bottom of the city wall of the troll city and looked at the tall city wall, but they didn't care at all.
Although the city walls here are made of rocks, they are somewhat pitted. Not only have they been ravaged by the natural environment over the years, but more so when they were first built.
Although the trolls established their own country, the level of civilization was still very low in the early days. It was far from easy to build such a huge city.
