"Look at the power of my magical arrows." Bennett looked disdainfully at Han Shuo and suddenly drew back the bow in his hand. Faint magical pulses emanated from the bow in his hand, and the arrow suddenly burst into flames in midair after it had been shot. It landed in the middle of the Forest Troll and exploded with intense sparks. Ten or so Forest Troll were hit by the sparks and set ablaze. Three of them didn't have time to extinguish the flames and were directly swallowed up by the spreading tongues of fire.
At this moment, the two dwarves responsible for keeping watch outside finally walked in with faces full of panic. They started yelling loudly before they even reached the village chief, "Not good, not good. Many Forest Troll are already heading our way, they're everywhere in the thicket! "
Bennett immediately left in a hurry under Calvin's orders and kept yelling from some of the small houses in the back, telling all the villagers to pick up their rations and weapons and temporarily ignore everything else.
After paying the price of a few more Forest Troll warriors' lives, the concealment at the entrance of the village was finally cleaned up by the Forest Troll. The Forest Troll raised their weapons and charged over with large strides.
However, because the range of the crossbow bolts was longer, the Forest Troll's judgment obviously wasn't accurate enough. The long spears fell in rows in front of the group of people and didn't cause any harm to Han Shuo and the others.
While Han Shuo and the dwarves were on guard, a loud shout from the Forest Troll traveled in from nearby. The Forest Troll immediately cheered and yelled loudly as they rapidly approached. Through the observations of the original demons, Han Shuo knew that one of the Forest Troll had already discovered the intersection that the dwarves were concealing.
Following Han Shuo's orders, the dwarves, who had the determination to die, retreated from the entrance of the village one by one. The crossbows in their hands continued to fire continuously. In the dense pack of Forest Troll's advance, these crossbow bolts didn't have to determine the direction, and they would all hit their targets.
The few Forest Troll that had just entered the area and hadn't had time to push aside the bushes in time were sent flying by the huge impact of the crossbow bolts. One of the Forest Troll that Han Shuo shot was shot through the chest by the crossbow bolt and nailed into a tree that was as thick as two people's waists.
Han Shuo was shocked. He didn't expect the arrow to be so powerful. He couldn't help but look at Bennett in surprise.
Bennett also showed timidity at this moment and nodded in agreement with Han Shuo's words. "Yes, I think we should retreat first and wait until I return to the tribe to notify our people. When our people arrive, we'll make these damned scoundrels pay a painful price."
Bennett stuck out her tongue and made a face at the female elf's rebuke, then said to Han Shuo confidently and confidently, "Did you see just now? The magic arrows that have been enchanted by our elders are so powerful when shot with a magic bow. The weapons forged by the dwarves, if modified by us, can immediately become amazingly powerful magic weapons. This can bring great trouble to the Forest Troll. You should trade those weapons with us. "
Han Shuo's body was strong and resilient, so it was quite easy for him to pick up these heavy crossbows. Although the dwarves weren't tall, they were equally strong. These crossbows also appeared quite effortless when they landed in their hands.
"The Forest Troll are also the natural enemies of us elves. I'll show them my power this time." Bennett didn't show any signs of fear, but rather spoke with some enthusiasm.
"Necromancy is the most loathsome of magic. You, a human, are actually an evil necromancer!" Bennett seemed to be a bit disgusted when he saw the skeletal warriors and zombie warriors appear and complained.
There were only fifty to sixty people in the dwarven village who could participate in the battle. Even with the addition of Han Shuo and the elves, their strength couldn't compare to the Forest Troll at all. This made Han Shuo understand that the danger this time would be very difficult to overcome.
"Five to six hundred Forest Troll are on their way here. It looks like your village has already been exposed." Han Shuo sighed lowly and slowly spoke the truth.
"Chief Calvin, I know your village is in the valley. Do you have any other way to leave the valley? No matter how suitable this valley is for you to live in, I think we should withdraw from here as soon as possible. Five to six hundred Forest Troll is very difficult for us to deal with. "Han Shuo advised.
However, contrary to Han Shuo's expectations, the Little Skull with the bone dagger had just appeared at the entrance of the village and hadn't had time to throw out the bone dagger. The Forest Troll at the very front all revealed excited expressions. They put down the weapons in their hands and raised their hands high in worship towards the Little Skull, calling out continuously, "Dadara, Dadara, Dadara …"
The dozen or so dwarves around them seemed a bit dejected after hearing what Han Shuo and Bennett had said. They all put down their weapons and one of them said, "The chief said that we should listen to Han. If Han tells us to retreat, we'll retreat."
The first batch of Forest Troll that had come were a lot more cautious this time after paying the price of a few gruesome deaths. They first approached with Forest Troll warriors, and then the priests added magic to their bodies. These Forest Troll bodies had become more agile and strong, and they immediately began to excitedly uproot the weeds at the entrance.
"Elder Calvin, has this village already been discovered by the Forest Troll?" Han Shuo's face was grave as he turned to look at Calvin and asked solemnly.
"Bennett, you shouldn't have wasted such precious magic arrows for these damned Forest Troll. You know how precious these magic arrows are!" A female elf on the side was a bit angry when she saw Bennett show off and scolded Bennett.
Han Shuo was flabbergasted and froze on the spot. He didn't know why the Forest Troll were so devoutly worshipping the Little Skull.
Calvin's brow furrowed tightly and he appeared quite worried. He thought for a while and then spoke to Bennett, "Go gather all the villagers and have them pack their things and leave from the valley behind. We'll stay behind and see if we can bring some punishment to these villains."
Based on the coverage of the original demons' vision, Han Shuo discovered that there were five to six hundred ogres this time. The Forest Troll warriors, hunters, and priests were all advancing in an orderly fashion, and their coordination was extremely reasonable. This meant that this wave of Forest Troll must have come from a large faction. Five to six hundred Forest Troll paired with enough troll hunters and priests was a force that couldn't be ignored.
"We should take the time to set up a few simple traps. We'll definitely be discovered at the entrance to the village, but this place isn't very spacious. We can make use of this opportunity to create some trouble for them." Han Shuo said calmly when the dark creatures appeared.
"What do we do, what do we do?" Bennett waved the metal hammer in his hand and looked at the dwarven women and children not far behind him. He spoke with an expression of extreme worry and helplessness.
"Kill." Han Shuo roared lowly and didn't wait for the Forest Troll to enter the village entrance. The crossbow in his hand had already shot out, and some of the dwarves on the side also fired their crossbow bolts and whistled out.
Bennett, who had been a bit hesitant before, no longer had any doubts about Han Shuo's words at this moment. The group of elves led by Bennett didn't show any signs of panic as they pulled out their weapons and wiped them. Bennett held a bow in his hand, looking like he was ready to fight at any moment.
Han Shuo smiled faintly when he heard Bennett's words, "Since that's the case, then retreat or we'll be in big trouble."
"There are too many Forest Troll, I think we should retreat." Han Shuo looked at the Forest Troll that filled the village entrance and understood that the difference between the two sides was too great. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
If things continued like this, the shrubbery and tree leaves covering the village entrance wouldn't be able to hold out for long. Han Shuo's expression didn't show any signs of panic after arriving here. He chanted an incantation and a few skeletal warriors appeared in front of him, including two strong zombie warriors.
Dwarves weren't a race that was cowardly and fearful of danger, but they had no choice but to be responsible for the women and children in their village. When danger arrived, the first thing they thought of was how to protect their children and women.
Some of the traps set up at the village entrance began to show their destructive power at this moment. The Forest Troll at the very front all fell into deep holes with sharp wooden branches stuck in them, crying out in pain. The entrance to the village was finally about to be breached with the continuous casualties of the Forest Troll.
"Han, why are you suddenly asking this question? There have been a few Forest Troll around here a few days ago, but even we don't know if they've discovered something. "Calvin started and then opened his mouth to answer.
Seeing that the dwarves had already retreated and that the elves were tactfully standing in the back, Han Shuo thought for a moment and summoned Little Skull. He wanted Little Skull to use the seven bone spurs on his back to bring about one last wave of blood and cause some trouble for the Forest Troll.
Several skeletal warriors and zombies immediately began to dig traps under Han Shuo's orders. The zombie warriors were strong and strong, and were responsible for moving some stones from afar to block the road. There were already some traps set up by the dwarves here, and Han Shuo only added a few more measures. The dwarves all moved to help Han Shuo set up the traps.
At this moment, the crossbow bolts in the hands of Han Shuo and the dwarves continuously shot through the underbrush. However, when Han Shuo and the others' crossbow bolts appeared, the rows of long spears of the troll hunters arced through the air and fell towards where Han Shuo and the group of dwarves were hiding.
At this moment, Bennett had already briefed the dwarves behind him on what to pay attention to. Han Shuo's original demons spied on the Forest Troll and discovered that they were actually heading towards the village entrance. He couldn't help but look back at the dwarves around him and say to them, "I think we should first block off the narrow road into the village at this time, and then buy time for the children and women to leave."
Bennett still didn't quite believe Han Shuo's words, but the group of dwarves led by Calvin were quite frantic when they heard that five or six hundred Forest Troll were on their way here, and were at a loss for what to do.
Han Shuo was completely unmoved by Bennett's complaints and only cared about setting up the traps. When Han Shuo sensed that it was about time, he took out a few crossbows from his space ring and distributed them to the dwarves next to him. He also had the dwarves retreat and separate themselves in the lush underbrush.
By now, Han Shuo could basically be certain that these Forest Troll had come for the dwarves this time. Otherwise, they wouldn't have all appeared here so coincidentally. Under the yells of the particularly valiant Forest Troll, more than five hundred Forest Troll rummaged through the nearby underbrush, searching for the entrance to the dwarven village.
Indeed, the new forest troll leader gave the order in the forest troll language, and a hundred or so forest trolls brandished their weapons as they charged over in a grandiose fashion. The troll warriors took the lead, followed by the troll hunters and priests. They carefully and slowly attempted to push aside the surrounding undergrowth that was concealing them first.
It looked like even now, this elf still hadn't forgotten his responsibility, and was still trying to move Han Shuo with his childish and laughable words. Unfortunately, apart from glancing at him in the beginning, Han Shuo didn't look at him again. He only calmly gave orders to some of the dwarves around him.
The dwarves were experts at forging weapons, but complicated crossbows didn't require superb forging skills. Instead, they required precise design concepts and ideas. The crossbow had a long range and great power, and was an outstanding invention of the humans in recent years. The downside was that it was too heavy, and the firing frequency wasn't fast enough. After each arrow was fired, it had to wait for a short period of time to reload. How could it be as fast as a bow and arrow?
As soon as these words were spoken, Han Shuo nodded at Calvin and walked in the direction of the village entrance. Bennett hesitated for a moment, then signaled to a few elves and followed behind Han Shuo, hurrying in the direction of the village entrance.
