Chapter 65: The Front Line of Sebnois
I saw a bulletin on the table, sent by Aurelia from the front, and found traces of the trolls holding a large-scale sacrifice.
The time was two days ago, and the mages on the front line sent back a telegram that found that the entire Troll Village of Sebnoy was shrouded in a layer of green mist, and the troops fortified on the front line could smell the stench of sorcery from afar.
"A high-ranking spellcaster among the trolls holding a sacrifice? Why is it so fast, winter is not a period of incubation for trolls, and judging by the arcane imaging, the scale of this sacrifice is beyond imagination. Patrick thought to himself.
Sort out the report, and send it to Taquelin with his observations, and ask the council to make a final decision, if a large-scale battle is launched, his own reserves are simply not enough, war is not a joke, the army has many needs, logistics, medical care, equipment, supplies, everything needs a lot of money.
Without a complete industrial system, it simply cannot carry a large army, and even the population is a kind of resource in the war, and if it does not have all the factors to participate in the war, it will only be slowly dragged down by the war.
Call Quellintis and ask him to make some preparations, Patrick has a hunch that those masters of the council will definitely not sit idly by, after all, the comfort of the front line is related to the stability of the entire Quel'Salas Kingdom, and it is the responsibility of those in power to maintain the security and stability of the kingdom.
Within a few days, Aurelia was in the Tower of Daylight, where the rangers were on vacation, and the vacation ended early.
Aurelia, as the marshal of the Far Travelers, has a special channel for the Ranger Force, and the reserves and the Ranger who are on vacation in the Sun Temple are all assembled, and the supplies prepared by the Ranger Command begin to be slowly delivered.
After a while, Patrick also received an order from the council from Taquelin, a large number of enchanted weapons, as well as battle materials, and baggage were also being transported here, but the council did not send a large number of troops to help, the council believed that the battle had not yet begun, and now it was only a preliminary investigation of the trolls' intentions, there was no need to mobilize the troops, and the rangers stationed on the front line could deal with the initial attack of the trolls.
When Patrick saw the council's directive from Taquelin, he couldn't help but sigh: "A thousand feet of embankment collapsed with an ant's nest." ”
All the elves have absolute confidence in Quel'Thalas's defenses, well, in fact, Silvermoon City's defenses are indeed impeccable, but the High Elves have a traitor, and they still send the lives of all the elves to the graveyard.
Those high-level spellcasters in Silvermoon City were basically not interested in the outside world, and they only sank into their own glory.
The supplies and gold coins allocated by the Council were sent to the Sun Temple, and the materials consumed by the military supplies were not a small amount, and the money sent by the Council continued to flow into the Sun Temple far away, and the two elves of Quirantis and Yanida were happy to blossom.
In the past, the Sun Temple was a poor place, a remote town, they didn't expect that this inconspicuous place would also have a bright future, Idonis and his good friends were also very happy, after all, the mage's research needs money very much, those magic materials, Mithril, Thorium, and Astral Essence are all expensive, and when they start experiments, they will fail a few times casually, dozens of times, which is simply burning money.
Even Telesta didn't let go of this good opportunity, and the five people of the Tower of Sunlight stepped up to make a batch of weapon enchantments, equipment enchantments, food, medicine, and supplies during battle, the temptation of gold coins can be described as quite large, Liadline is not a mage, only prepared a part of the holy light materials, and it can be regarded as a sum of income, not too miserable.
Aurelia was too busy to be on her own, and she barely had time to see Patrick, only in the evening did she have time to sit down for a cup of tea.
There are only two people in the chief office, Patrick and Aurelia.
"I didn't expect to come back so soon."
"I didn't expect the trolls to prepare blood sacrifices in the winter, which is a bit different from usual, the military mages on the front line found that there were strong plastic magic fluctuations in Sebnoy, and in the past few days, Sebnoy's demonic shrouds have become thicker and thicker, which has caught our attention."
"The council's order has come down, and it's still the same as the Eastern Temple, and Idonis, Candireus, and I, I, and I, I, and I, I, and I, I Patrick silently refilled Aurelia with a cup of tranquilizing flower tea to soothe the tired spirit.
"It's not been a few years, and the trolls are restless again." Aurelia's head hurt, and it had only been a long time, and the troll was always doing something, and her body shook as she picked up the teacup as she possessed it, and her snow-white skin attracted Patrick's gaze.
"When are we going to the front??"
"Just in case, this group of troops will set off as soon as they are assembled." Aurelia said categorically.
Patrick nodded in agreement, the responsibility lies, you must be ready for everything, Aurelia's approach is very much the responsibility of the Ranger Marshal, Patrick agrees.
"Reminds me of when we were in the Forest of Life a few years ago." Patrick is a little nostalgic for the past, when he was just a newcomer, and he fought with Aurelia into the Forest of Life to crush the trolls' plots.
Once assembled, Patrick drove to the front with Aurelia's team, and some of his troops left halfway to increase their defenses at Ann Ovien and the Atlas Moon Crystal Temple.
The team set off in the morning, passing through the three-way intersection to reach the front camp, Patrick could clearly feel the smell of witchcraft in Sebnoy, the lake next to it was a little faintly green, as if it was polluted by witchcraft, and the trolls' witchcraft was slowly spreading outward, polluting the land.
Moreover, sensing the fluctuation of divine power, it means that there is a divine power protector, or it may be an animal god of a troll priest, and it is found that there may be a high-level spellcaster in the troll, and Sebnoy's trip is imperative.
"It should be above the Amani Trail, where the fluctuations in power are most pronounced, and the green mist of hexery is the thickest, which is disgusting." Patrick pointed out the problem directly.
Aurelia agreed, as a seventh-order ranger, coupled with the Eagle Eye Technique, she could naturally observe some general conditions: "Indeed, there are many trolls there, and it seems that some kind of ritual is being held, and the deepest part is shrouded in green mist, and it is impossible to see clearly. ”
The elves returned to the camp and began to discuss this battle against the trolls, Patrick naturally also participated, the trolls are likely to have a high-level spellcaster, this matter needs to be reported to the council, and at the same time, it is necessary to organize the troops to clean up, as the most powerful mages in the army now, Patrick and Idonis are duty-bound.
