Suhlen was very satisfied with Ayton's active loyalty. His addition could support the territory's scouts. Suhlen appointed him as an investigator of the North Castle.
"Welcome to the North Castle." Suhlen said with a smile, "Ayton, this weapon is your reward for completing the investigation task well."
Suhlen took out the curved sword and a dagger that Hathaway made with the claws of the Claw and handed it to him.
After taking the weapon and testing it, Ayton's eyes brightened. This magic weapon was much stronger than the one he used before.
"Thank you for your reward. I'm willing to clear any obstacles for you!" Ayton said, kneeling on one knee.
"Oh, get up." Suhlen reached out and helped him up. "You just came back. Go and have a rest first. Then go back to the drow tribe tomorrow and tell them my request. It's up to them whether they want to agree or not."
Suhlen had made a decision. If the Drows chose to join the North Castle before the Troll War, he would give them the promised treatment, or even better. But if the Drows did not make a decision before the war, even if they joined the North Castle in the end, the conditions given by Suhlen would be greatly reduced.
Suhlen had a better understanding of the Drows. This race also had the pride of the elves. It was impossible to make them yield just by using soft means. This method would even make them think that you were weak and easy to bully, and they would not join you. On the contrary, if you showed them strength that far exceeded theirs, they would respect you.
The best way was to be both soft and tough. This group of Drows had reached the most difficult moment. If there was a strong person to help them, it was not impossible to conquer the whole tribe.
Of course, nothing was absolute. He had already thought about it. After dealing with the trolls, if the Drows still had not made a decision, then he would go and reason with them. He, Suhlen, had always convinced people with reason.
After Ayton left, Suhlen began to think about the souls.
The Troll Tribe had souls, and the power of the souls was very strong. The human wave tactic had no effect on them. After all, this thing was immune to any attack from non-rare weapons.
If it was a soul with the strength of a demigod, then it would be immune to any attack from rare weapons below high-grade magic weapons. If the soul of the Troll Tribe was a demigod, then except for Suhlen's Purple Dragon Halberd, no weapon in the North Castle could hurt it. At that time, Suhlen would have to run away.
However, this situation was very rare. After all, it was only a tribe of 600 trolls. This amount of faith could not support a demigod soul. The soul of the Troll Tribe was a legendary soul. Although this level of soul was powerful, Suhlen was not weak either. Although it had not been long since he became a legendary, he already had a territory.
Many high-grade legendaries might not be able to awaken their own territory. There was still a big difference in strength between those who had a territory and those who did not.
.....
Although Ayton had left, there were still five other scouts in the North Castle who were monitoring the Trolls at all times. After a few days, the Trolls finally set up camp 30 kilometers away from the North Castle. According to the scouts, the Trolls should have taken a fancy to Suhlen's territory.
They wanted to directly occupy the North Castle as their new camp. After all, in the wilderness, the protection of the city walls was much better than those wooden bars.
Under the dark night sky.
Suhlen observed the simple camp that the Trolls had built in the afternoon from afar. In addition to the 600 trolls, there were even more Gnolls and Kobolds in the tribe. During the day, Suhlen had brought people here to wait.
This time, he did not bring many people. Seventy-one Barbarian warriors, two teams of war spirits, and a team of new spearmen and archers. Chris and Hathaway were both here. Suhlen had Sheriff Harrison stay in the North Castle with the security team.
It could be said that he had brought out 90% of the military forces in the territory.
Even if they won against the Trolls, the North Castle would suffer heavy losses. Therefore, the best way to reduce the casualties was to ambush. He was a professional at ambushing.
The night was getting darker.
Suhlen and his men slowly approached the Trolls' territory. They did not dare to go too close. The Trolls also had night vision. If they made too much noise, the Trolls would easily notice Suhlen and his men. By then, the ambush would become a full-on assault.
In order to prepare for this battle, Suhlen had already brought out all the fire starters he had prepared. Everyone brought four bottles of oil and alcohol. Other than that, everyone was fully armed. The Barbarians were all wearing steel half-body armor. The new soldiers were also wearing iron-plated armor.
After being exposed to the cold wind for half a night, the discipline of the troops could be seen. The war spirits were still silent, but the new soldiers and Barbarians were not.
"Stop and wait for orders!"
Su Lun shouted in a low voice, and then waved at the five scouts.
"You guys spread out and scout. See if there are any hidden sentries."
The five scouts nodded. Then, their figures flashed, and they disappeared into the darkness. After waiting for about half an hour, the five scouts finally returned.
After confirming that there were no hidden sentries, Suhlen and his men continued to sneak toward the Trolls' tribe. This time, they were only one kilometer away from the Trolls' camp.
There was a high chance that they would be discovered if they tried to get close. No matter how careless the Trolls were, they would still have hidden sentries here. Suhlen had Hathaway cast an invisibility spell on him. He quietly snuck in and prepared to take out the hidden sentries.
