Chapter 44 Attack and Kill
"Largo, you can go there again, and after nightfall, bring everyone else." A cold light flashed in Qin Lun's eyes, "We won't take a detour from the bottom of the mountain. After killing these three troll sentries, we will just cross the mountain."
"Feral, this won't work. There are not only one observation post set up by the trolls on both sides of the town. There are many low mountains in this area." Mastasha said with a frown.
"I know, so before nightfall, we still need to check how many troll sentries are nearby." Qin Lun said with a faint smile.
"Are you going to kill all the way?" Mastasha said in surprise. "If there is a problem with a post, we will be completely done. Why not go further!"
"It's impossible to get around. This troll town is so big. In order to support so many people, their hunting range can be imagined." Qin Lun pointed at the foot of the mountain, "There are hunting teams of trolls everywhere in the woods. Once they are discovered by a hunting team, we will take the initiative to run into their encirclement.
On the other hand, in the low mountains near the town, since there are troll sentries, the large beasts here should have been cleared, let alone their hunting area. As long as we kill the sentries on the top of the mountain, we will not be discovered by other trolls. This is the least risky way."
"It's so boring!" Mastasha murmured, but no longer insisted on his opinion.
As an excellent adventurer, the Highland Elves certainly knew what Qin Lun said. However, when things come, everyone has a sense of luck. On the contrary, people like Qin Lun are not often calm and cruel.
"I'll go and explore several other peaks nearby!" Mastasha said softly.
"No, let Ilistin and my hunting partner go, they are even less likely to be exposed." Qin Lun grabbed Mastasha and raised his chin to Ilistin.
Ilisten nodded, fell to the ground and rolled, and turned into a petite black bobcat. Her purple-like cat eyes blinked in a humanized manner, turned her head and rushed into the bushes. Then, the Shadow Wind Leopard, summoned by Qin Lun, also ran down the mountain from another direction.
"Can Lago bring them here?" Mastasha was slightly worried.
"It doesn't matter, Hill has a telepathic ability. I will pass on the observed mirror to him, and should be able to avoid the troll's lookout whistle on the top of the mountain." The Yin-Yang Fish pattern in Qin Lun's eyes flashed slightly, and the black and white sketched mirror was fed back to the team channel and provided to Hill and Rand for reference.
As the sun sets, the night slowly covers the mountain. During this period, the troll watchtower on the top of the mountain changed its guard, but no two elves lurking under their noses were found.
When the sky was completely dark, Ilistin and Shadow Wind Leopard who went out to explore were also back. They were lucky enough to find another troll sentry nearby.
That sentry is much more hidden than the peak lookout here. It is located in a hidden cave on the hillside, with huge rocks covering it. If it weren't for the change of guards in the middle, Ilistin wouldn't have discovered it.
"Hill, are you ready?" Lago did not bring the rest of the team to meet up. The Blood-Spiked Trio and Hill and others went directly to the post. They wanted to do something together, clear the two troll posts at the same time, and then take advantage of the night to bypass the troll town.
"We have no problem here. Do you really need to help? Otherwise, let Lago run again!" Hill asked cautiously.
There are three trolls at the two troll sentries. Hill has a total of six combat powers, including one of them. Qin Lun has only three people, and his strength is a little weak.
"It doesn't matter, the terrain of your guard post is too dangerous. A little more people can prevent unexpected situations." Qin Lun shook his head and refused, throwing a wink at the two elf beauties around him.
"Remember what I told you, don't let the trolls free up their hands to light the wolf smoke, otherwise they will be done." Mastasha seriously instructed his two companions.
Qin Lun and Yilistin nodded, and the three of them gently touched the top of the peak. Soon, three pairs of cold eyes appeared on the edge of the flat top platform.
Perhaps it was because the usual and stable days had been too long, and the three trolls who were looking for the whistle were not wary at all. Two of them were sitting around the campfire, dozing off with their heads hanging down, and snoring was clearly heard by Qin Lun and the other two who were more than ten meters away.
The last troll was dedicated and looked down at the foot of the mountain with a huge rock half a man. However, the direction it was looking at was the troll town, and it did not pay attention to the sparse woodland below the mountain.
This troll town covers a huge area, and the winding river passes through the middle. It is set up at high places on both sides of the town. In fact, it is not to defend against foreign enemies, but to guard against monsters in the mountains.
Trolls are the actual rulers of Troll's Claws. The monsters in the mountains generally do not actively attack towns, but sometimes they will raid the beast cliffs outside the town. If you encounter certain severe natural disasters, the beast group of Troll's Claws cannot guarantee to survive the cold winter, then a tide of beast attacking the troll's town will break out.
Some monsters sneak into the beast pendant to steal food, and the lookout posts that are not worthy of the mountain top issued a warning. In many cases, these posts are all decorations, so it is no wonder that the trolls on duty will be bored and drowsy.
Qin Lun angrily pointed at the two elf beauties and signaled that the two trolls beside the bonfire belonged to them, while he himself quietly circled around half a circle and touched the still awake troll.
Looking at the troll who was giggling with his mouth wide open not far away, as if he was immersed in some kind of imagination, a cold light flashed in Qin Lun's eyes.
In a legend in the Feren continent, the trolls have a trace of blood relationship with the mountain giants. Qin Lun cannot be sure whether this legend is true, but judging from the powerful physical defense of the trolls, it seems that it is not impossible.
Trolls have excellent affinity for earth elements. Some gifted trolls will awaken the "power of the earth" when they become adults. They have an innate talent - throwing huge rocks.
The skins of trolls have good resistance to physical and magical blows. Even with legendary weapons like "Frost of Wind", it is very difficult to cut off their limbs in one go, unless they are pure swordsmen or swordsmen with extremely high swordsman skills.
Although Qin Lun also mastered the expertise of one-handed cold weapons, he obviously could not do this. Therefore, he had to find the physical weakness that could severely damage the trolls.
The neck and heart attack methods such as the key points of ordinary people's bodies may not necessarily work on trolls. There are very few real key points for trolls, including eyes, auricles, mouth, and anus. Only those places that can directly harm the troll's organs can be considered fatal.
Of course, it is not easy to attack these parts accurately. Trolls are not wooden people, but they have quite cunning minds.
Qin Lun crawled on his body and crawled towards the troll from the side. He had sprayed a potion provided by Mastasha to him, which smelled a little like grass, to avoid being discovered by trolls with sensitive sense of smell.
"It's almost done!" Qin Lun felt very lucky. Until he approached within five meters of the troll, it still didn't notice it. Obviously, the perception of the ordinary troll was indeed as weak as Mastasha said, and this was one of the few weaknesses of this creature.
Qin Lun did not make any sound, and supported his limbs with force, jumped up from the ground, flipped 180 degrees, facing the night sky, spread his arms in the air, and flew his back towards the troll above his head.
Just as his back passed over the troll's head, Qin Lun twisted his waist with force, spread his arms across a graceful arc, and the evil dagger in his right hand flashed a black light and stabbed the troll's ears.
Qin Lun felt that the sin dagger seemed to pierce a piece of extremely tough cowhide, but after less than two inches of depth, his strength was weak.
"Puchi!" A hot and fishy liquid splashed his head and face, but Qin Lun's heart was still shaking. The light from the corner of his eyes actually saw the troll whose ears were pierced, turning his head, with a hint of confusion in his fierce eyes.
Isn't such trauma fatal enough? Qin Lun was very surprised. Although the dagger only penetrated two inches, this depth obviously had already hurt the troll's brain, and it could still react.
The next moment, the troll whose brain was severely damaged finally felt unparalleled pain. Its eyes were a little distracted, its ugly face began to twist, and countless bloodshots burst out in its cruel eyes.
Although the mind is in chaos, the powerful vitality prompts it to react instinctively.
"Ao~~" The troll opened his mouth wide, and the heavy sound waves hit Qin Lun's mind like drumsticks. The volume of the roar was not high, but the shock wave contained in it was very powerful. This was the troll's battle cry talent.
"Not good!" Qin Lun felt dizzy in his mind. He slapped the hilt of the evil dagger like a conditioned reflex in his left hand, knocking the blade of the dagger into the troll's mind like a hammer. At the same time, he stirred the dagger in his hand with his right hand, and turned it around for half a circle, stirring the troll's brain into a ball of paste.
Following this force, the waist and abdomen twisted with force, and his legs wrapped around the troll's thick neck like an old tree, clamping its throat desperately, causing the war cry to come to an abrupt end, making only half a sound.
"Bang!" The troll's legs weakened and he fell to the ground. The tenacious vitality made the giant beast not die immediately. It just lost the command of its brain. Its limbs instinctively waved around, hitting the rocks and splattering the rocks, but could no longer hurt the enemies on its back.
Qin Lun exhaled a breath of turbid air and finally had time to look up and observe the battle situation on the other side. After fighting with the trolls with his own hands, he subconsciously realized that things might not be as easy as he imagined.
