Mystic Wizard in Azeroth

Chapter 68 Aristophanes' Troll War (5)

To the south of Taquilin, after another week of troll attacks, the elves' defenses have not been breached, but have become more impregnable.

In addition to the well-equipped rangers in the Farwalker Fortress, which can effectively kill trolls, some steel plates engraved with certain runes they brought also played a very important role. These steel plates were erected in front of the position after being unfolded, and the rangers of the Farstrider could safely hide behind and attack the attacking troll without worrying about the troll's counterattack.

After receiving the news that Kael'thas had successfully recaptured the Temple of the Sun, Creevey Windrunner was ready to fight back, but he was a little worried that Aristophanes and Alleria, who were still behind the enemy lines, didn't know that they How are you two now.

Aristophanes, Alleria and the others, after trying several methods but failing to break through the troll's voodoo defense line, chose to bypass here in the dark. And under the leadership of Lor'themar Theron, he successfully reunited with the Farstrider team led by Taranas.

"Long time no see, Taranas."

"Long time no see, so I won't say too much. Our scouts saw that the magic shield of the Temple of the Sun was opened again today. Do you have any news?"

Aristophanes knew that Kael'thas had succeeded, he nodded, and told about Kael'thas' plan to lead some rangers and most of the mages to raid the Temple of the Sun.

"This prince is really brave." Taranas said with a smile.

"Who says it's not!" Aristophanes also echoed, "But I guess the trolls should slowly shrink their defenses. After all, after the Sun Temple is taken back, the trolls' long logistics supply line may be given by us at any time." Cut off."

"What are we going to do next?"

"Continue to harass me, and wait for the final decisive battle!" Aristophanes said in an affirmative tone.

Troll camp, in Gagolajin's tent.

"What did you say? The Temple of the Sun was snatched back by those long ears?"

"Yes, Lord Chief. They rushed down from the mountain in the north. In addition to rangers and mages, we can't stop their attack at all!" said a troll with blood on his face and two arrows stuck in his back. "I was the only one who managed to escape from more than a hundred troll warriors!"

"Okay, go down and rest first!" Gagolakin told the troll warrior to go down to recuperate, and then looked around at the priests sitting around.

"My lord chief, what should we do next?" Cliff, who had just returned from transporting food, asked. He knew the serious consequences of the Sun Temple being captured.

"Stop the offensive on the front line, and send people to scout the situation in the Temple of the Sun!" Gagolakin issued an order.

The next day, after learning that the magic shield of the Temple of the Sun had been opened, Gagolakin sighed and summoned all the priests.

"Let's talk about your opinions. Now we can't advance or retreat. It is absolutely impossible for us to capture the Temple of the Sun in a short time, and the elf position in the north is also difficult to chew. What do you think should be done?"

Several priests looked at each other, and Muriel spoke first: "Master Chief, there are two paths in front of us now, one is to counterattack with all our strength, immediately attack the Temple of the Sun, take it back there, and then regroup; the other is to stop here , Withdrew to Zul'Aman, the offensive against the Long Ears has been going on for a month, and many troll soldiers have become war-weary."

"And what about the opinions you discussed?" Gagolakin asked.

"We think it's better to retreat. We have gained a lot from this attack, and now the clansmen have lost a lot. The group of long ears in the Temple of the Sun are all hiding in the shield. If the stalemate continues, I'm afraid of them Maybe come out and cut off our retreat."

However, what they were afraid of would happen, and at this moment, a troll messenger broke in.

"What happened?" Gagolakin recognized this as a scout he sent to monitor the group of long-eared Sun Temple.

"My lord, those long-eared troops are here! They rushed out from the high ground of the Temple of the Sun and cut off the road leading to Zul'Aman!"

Now the people in the camp couldn't sit still anymore, and Gagolakin no longer hesitated, and immediately gave an order: "Haian, Muriel, you lead your priests and two-thirds of the troll warriors as the vanguard." , Be sure to open the road to Zul'Aman; I am the central army, take the altar, Cliff, Vorgas, you lead the remaining fighters as flank guards, retreat immediately!"

"Yes, Chief!"

In the southeast of the troll camp, Aristophanes and Taranas are listening to the reconnaissance information of the rangers.

"You said His Royal Highness, they have cut off the retreat of the troll?" Taranas asked.

"Yes, I saw with my own eyes that the Phoenix King Banner rushed out of the valley of the Temple of the Sun, and then set up a tent and position at Sanchakou."

"Okay, I see, it's hard work, you go down and rest first."

"It looks like the time for the attack is near," Aristophanes said to Taranas.

"Yes, His Royal Highness has recovered the Temple of the Sun. With the protection of the magic shield and the support of the portal, it should be able to block the offensive of those trolls. Creevey should also counterattack in due course. This is our A chance for the squad to raid." Taranas was a little excited.

"Lor'themar, you heard it too, go tell all the rangers to get ready, the final battle is coming." Aristophanes said to Lor'themar Theron who was standing beside him.

"Got it, I'll go right away." Lor'themar Theron nodded and turned to leave.

As Taranas and Aristophanes thought, or the trolls fought back faster than they thought.

On the first afternoon when Kael'thas occupied the three-fork road leading to Zul'Aman and the Temple of the Sun, a group of trolls had already appeared on the periphery of their defense line and launched a tentative attack.

That night, Aristophanes and others discovered that the flag representing the troll chief also appeared on the west side of the front line, and at the same time the altar also appeared in their sight, which meant that the siege of Taquilin basically It was lifted.

"I don't know if His Royal Highness can stop the troll from retreating." Taranas and Aristophanes observed the troll's camp in the jungle far away from the troll's camp. They also saw the troll's offensive during the day. Aristophanes is okay, but Taranas was really taken aback.

"Isn't it time for us to show our talents?" Aristophanes replied with a smile, "I'll give the trolls a surprise tonight."

In the early morning, in Kael'thas' tent, he was looking at the map under the light from the arcane lantern, writing something from time to time.

"Your Highness, are you asleep? There is an emergency here!" Cahill suddenly said at the door of the tent.

"What's the matter?" Kael'thas asked as he stood up and walked out of the tent, but he knew what Cahill was talking about as soon as he walked out: the troll camp on the opposite side was full of flames, and there seemed to be a commotion. Immediately used Eagle Eye, and then found that the trolls in the camp were running around, and many tents were still burning.

"What's going on?" Kael'thas asked.

"According to the observations of the sentries, there may be an elf squad attacking the trolls."

"How is it possible? The trolls are not blind." Kael'thas blurted out.

"However, the trolls were indeed baptized by a rain of fire from the sky. They did not respond to their warnings, and our sentries did not observe any attacking squad." Cahill did not wait for Kael'thas to ask questions. He said freely, "But I can probably guess where the elves are. There is a group of very elite ranger troops in the Farwalker Fortress, called Farwalkers. They are not many in number, but they are proficient in concealment, sneak attack and jungle combat. We It is normal for sentries not to observe them."

Before that, their leader Taranas led a group of far travellers into the jungle and attacked the trolls' logistics supply line. He was the one who rescued me from the Temple of the Sun. "

"Farstrider again?" Kael'thas frowned. He had heard this name repeatedly since he returned to Quel'Thalas. It seemed that he really wanted to find a chance to visit this place.

"Let the sentinels step up their vigilance! By the way, have you contacted Creevey Windrunner?"

"I got in touch. He has ordered the troops to start moving. According to the agreed time, he will reach the offensive position in the west in one day!"

"Very well, let the rangers and mages rest well, tomorrow will be a big battle!"

In the jungle, Aristophanes and others calmly retreated to the open space for rest.

"You developed this war spell? How did you do it?" Taranas recalled that Aristophanes' spell was still a bit unbelievable: the sky was full of flames falling from the sky like a blizzard, just like the end of the world, directly hitting In the troll's camp, a huge fire ignited.

"Oh, it's my first time using it too. This is a variant spell of Blizzard. It changes the water runes in the magic circle to fire runes, and then changes the two α and β structures..." Aristophanes Barabara explained a lot, and then concluded, "With the help of the staff, this effect was formed in the end. To be honest, I was also shocked, but the mana model is not perfect, and the attributes of the staff are not right. Optimization It should be more powerful in the future."

However, Taranas didn't listen to Aristophanes' chatter behind him. He pulled Lor'themar Theron and Alleria aside, and asked, "You were attacking trolls with such a perverted mage before?" of?"

"Yes, Captain," Lor'themar said with a numb expression, "Sometimes I wonder if I should change my profession, such as a priest or something, and give him buff spells, which is better than a ranger standing and watching the game. "

"I never saw him so perverted when I was young, Uncle Taranas," Alleria also complained, "I know he is very talented, otherwise he would not be accepted as a disciple by the great magister, but I have never seen him Has there ever been any mage who is not afraid of magic addiction like him, releasing various large-scale war spells by himself is as simple as drinking water."

Taranas was silent. He looked at Aristophanes who was calculating something, and seemed to realize once again that the elf in front of him was unusual.

In the troll camp, Gagolakin stood in front of his tent with several priests, looking at the messy camp in front of him with an ugly expression.

"How about the loss?" He turned to ask Hai'an.

"No troll died, but a dozen or so troll warriors were seriously injured, and dozens of others were slightly injured, all of which were unnoticed burns," Hai'an replied softly, "but a corner of the altar was destroyed, and Nalorak needed a new priest. , At the same time, part of the grain and grass were burned."

The corners of Gagolakin's eyes twitched: "Where's Vorgas?"

"He immediately took his voodoo shooters to chase after it."

"Let him come back to me, and be honest and guard around the camp!" Gagolakin said, "Now we need to concentrate all our strength and break through the elves' defense line in front of us, otherwise none of us will be able to go back!"

"Obey!"
