Chapter 3: The War Between Trolls and Bugs
The Great Desert of Tanaris under the Moon Veil.
According to the understanding of dwarves and humans who come here for tourism or adventure, the three most dangerous things here at night are bugs, trolls, and poisonous scorpions in the desert.
Bugs and poisonous scorpions may seem like one thing in other places, but here, poisonous scorpions are poisonous scorpions. And bugs, that's something more dangerous than trolls.
Because they have a name.
They are called xenomorphs.
In fact, these insects have gone through thousands of years, and the seal that seals Angela has begun to loosen. The power of the Yakines and Cthun slowly began to leak out, eventually leading to another quicksand battle decades later.
Why did Tonna know that decades later would be the Battle of the Quicksands? Because when he was doing business with the goblins of Garkison, he inadvertently found out a piece of news.
Opposite the continent of Kalimdor there is also the continent of Azeroth (Eastern Kingdom), and to the north of that continent, there is a powerful human kingdom. The name of the kingdom is Lordaeron, and the king is His Majesty Terenus Minahir, who has just ascended to the throne, and it is said that this human majesty is very wise, but the goblins do not like him.
Because Minecil doesn't like to do business with goblins!
Terenus Minahir had only just ascended to the throne, which meant that it was too early for Arthas to appear, and so early for the undead to appear. Since King Lordaeron is still young, the Dark Gate should not have been opened yet, and the Kalimdor has not yet appeared as a tribe.
Then - the second quicksand war.
It's still early.
Tonna was a little glad he knew he was in Azeroth at this point in time. If it appears in the time period when the alliance and the tribe are facing each other and uniting against other forces while confronting each other, then the sand-blooded tribe, which is a branch of the desert trolls, is estimated to have only two ends.
Either you'll be killed by the adventurers of the Alliance and the Horde, or you'll be able to join the Horde through the Darkspear Trolls.
He didn't like either option.
Therefore, he wants to quickly increase his own strength, as well as the power of the tribe, before that situation appears, which requires the help of the system.
Speaking of systems.
Tonna glanced at the system interface and tasks inside the retina, then turned off the system and headed towards the camp.
His nose smelled the smell of food coming from the camp, his people were starting to prepare food after the camp, it was a little late for dinner, but the trolls were very patient, it didn't matter if they were hungry and ate later.
Even the elderly, weak, women and children are the same.
Just as Tonna was about to go over and eat some food, the desert troll's skill in roasting desert scorpions was not bad at all, and the taste was much better than the imperial capital roast duck that he ate in the imperial capital when he was still a Chinese on earth.
However, the system prompt sound that suddenly popped up in his ears woke him up.
At the same time, on the retina, a dialog box also appeared.
【Ding... Temporary Task Release]
[Temporary Mission: Sneak Attack of Xenomorphs]
【Reward: Strains of Light】
[Description: The smell of cooking and the arrival of many trolls have attracted the attention of nearby xenomorphs, and you need to defeat them.] 】
Tonna stopped directly.
The face is a little solemn, because this is a temporary task of the system, and it will be released from time to time and from time to time.
But the temporary task of this system proves one thing.
Around the dunes where they camped, there was an unknown number of xenomorph bugs lurking, and they had already spotted them, ready to launch a sneak attack on them!
"Underground!"
The scouts of the tribe had always had vigilant guards around them, and the moonlight was shining tonight, and it was a desert here, so at a glance, the trolls' excellent eyesight could see far away.
But before the system alerts.
The tribal scouts had not, and there was no sign or sound of battle, and the attack was underground, beneath the soft sand dunes northwest of the camp, where the most suitable bugs lurked for Angela.
The reason why Tonna will find the bug's hiding place so quickly is because of this kind of sudden mission, the system will very thoughtfully open him a temporary minimap, on the minimap, the desert trolls on this side of the camp are countless green dots, and on the tall sand dunes in the northwest of the camp, there are thousands of red dots.
Quietly, he quickly walked to the center of the camp and found the witch doctor Zangar, who was also his main lieutenant in charge of the clan.
"There's bugs."
His first words sent the witch doctor in shock.
"The dunes in the northwest direction. Deliver my order, leave half of the warriors to protect the women, children and the elderly, and leave 1/3 of the witch doctors and archers, and you are in charge! The rest of the warriors, witch doctors, spearmen, and archers come with me! ”
"Old Zangar obeys your orders!" After listening to the orders of the tall and straight chief, Zangar bent down and spoke softly.
The Sandblood tribes migrated here.
It was not uneventful along the way, and there were several battles. There are desert thieves, beasts, and battles with xenos.
Led by a powerful chieftain, the warriors of the Sandblood tribe slash and kill their enemies. So when Zangar heard that there was a xenomorph attack, he was not alarmed.
10 minutes later.
At this time, the desert around the Sandblood Clan's temporary camp was quiet. Even the original croaking of some of the desert bugs was gone—the kind of little insects in the real sense, as if sensing the danger, they all shut up at once, and did not dare to make any more noise.
Under the moonlight.
The sand dunes in the distance were white by the moonlight, like silver-white silver sand.
Quietly arranging the formation of his team, Tonna looked into the distance and looked at the small map on the retina.
Probably at 200 meters.
At least a thousand xenomorphs are approaching here. They probably want to use the cover of the sand to kill quietly, so the speed of progress is a bit slow.
If Tonna doesn't happen to have a system, the system also prompts him to have an attack. As ordinary trolls, they are really vulnerable to these bugs in the desert.
In a magnetic voice, he spoke in the language of the trolls, giving the order to prepare for battle: "Archers and spearmen prepare, light the rockets, polish your throwing spears, and obey my orders...... Aim 100 yards ahead! ”
Behind him.
More than five hundred troll warriors, the same number of archers, spearmen, and a total of more than 1,000 Sandblood Tribal troll troops, silently fulfilled his orders.
The rockets made by the archers with a kind of thorn unique to the desert were ignited, and the rockets made of this thorn had good penetration, because the oil unique to this thorn would continue to burn for several minutes, which was the best material for the desert trolls to make rockets.
At the same time, spears made from the roots of such thorns were sharp, and they were now sharpened by spearmen. And the warriors who had seen the Chief's berserk power were eager to try, but they were surprisingly quiet, not as manic as they were with other races.
Because the trolls know they're dealing with bugs.
War of trolls and bugs.
Imminent.
There is no way to reconcile.
It's like the war between the Troll Empire and the Yaki Empire thousands of years ago, it's just you who lives or dies!
