"The trolls are about to escape!" Kael 'thas reminded him.
Taking the Amani trolls as an example, one of the reasons why the elves hadn't been able to exterminate them for thousands of years was that forest trolls were natural forest killers.
This was especially true for someone like Zu Jin. As long as he didn't want to be caught, he wouldn't be caught. As long as he didn't want to be caught, then even if the best rangers in Cuel Salas were sent to hunt him down, they wouldn't be able to catch him.
Before Duque's crazy and unreasonable yaoyao army appeared, the war in the forest was a battle between trolls and elven rangers. For thousands of years, neither could completely overwhelm the other.
Often, when there were too many trolls, they would rush out of the depths of the forest and seek death.
When the trolls were killed, they would immediately scram back into the forest to recuperate.
This kind of tug-of-war had been going on for thousands of years.
Prince Kael 'thas had also heard of the power of the yaoyao. In terms of early warning, the yaoyao was indeed powerful. Unfortunately, this annoying little fellow was too slow. In a full-speed pursuit, the yaoyao was useless.
Again, it was easy to break up and defeat trolls, but difficult to annihilate trolls.
Compared to the sacrifice of nearly 200,000 soldiers and civilians, defeating a troll army that had lost the support of the orcs was far from enough to satisfy the elves' hatred.
Kael 'thas was anxious!
Duque shook his head leisurely. "The way of a commander, in addition to looking at the overall situation and making the most beneficial choices for one's side, is to learn to read people and learn to wholeheartedly believe in experts who are proficient in certain areas."
"Experts?"
"Everyone has their own strengths." Duque pointed at the fighting Sagunar. "Brave and ruthless, the vanguard."
Duque then pointed at Aurelia, who didn't forget to command and coordinate the four sides in the fierce battle. "Able to fight and control, the general."
Duque finally pointed at himself. "Able to complete special tasks at special times and places, the specialist."
With that, Duque chanted a string of incantations.
When Kael 'thas first heard it, he instinctively felt that it was very familiar, because it was the incantation to activate the runestone array buried under Longsong Forest. However, when he listened carefully, he felt that something was amiss. From the middle part onwards, the incantation had been changed beyond recognition.
Even if it was the same magical device, different incantations often corresponded to different effects.
Kael 'thas really didn't know how Duque knew about this incantation and how he modified it.
The prince barely understood Duke's incantation in the language of the High Elves. He changed the word 'rise' to 'sink' and 'deposit' to 'release'.
However, more than thirty percent of the runestones had been destroyed, and most of the arcane energy buried under the forest had been used up. What else could Duque do?
In Kael 'thas's expectations, it would be difficult to even make a fire with a Runestone Magic Circle, let alone a flame that could incinerate ten thousand people.
At this moment, in Duque's perception, the situation was completely different.
Lines of data flowed down from Duque's retina like a waterfall, pouring into Duque's vision and imprinting in Duque's mental world at the same time.
A large amount of knowledge poured into Duque's head like a force-feeding duck. This should have been a very uncomfortable process, but when all the knowledge was crushed into fragments of memories and continuously rotated at high speed, like rivers flowing into the sea, everything changed …
"Importing geological data of Longsong Forest …"
"Comparing the geological conditions of the battlefield …"
"Feeding back the magic conditions into a data link …"
"Loading the Strongest King Terrain Modification System."
"Authority: Supreme."
Kael 'thas, who was beside Duque, watched in astonishment as Duque's pupils gradually changed from deep black to the color of flowing mercury. A series of magic waves gradually appeared under his feet, as if the magic circuit on his body extended from his limbs to the city wall, and then from the city wall to the entire battlefield.
"How is this possible?!" Kael 'thas cried out in shock.
As the ancestors of magic, the biggest difference between the High Elves and the city wall was that they solidified the city wall of Silvermoon City with magic to prevent the wall from collapsing under the effects of high temperatures and low temperatures.
Even the Sun King himself, who had built the city wall back then, could not allow his magic to pass through the city wall. This was because the city wall had been reinforced and solidified many times with magic.
However, Duque did it.
"Boom!"
The large area where the troll stood seemed to have experienced an incomparably violent earthquake. Suddenly, the entire area shook.
Standing on the high city wall, Kael 'thas and a few councilors of the Silvermoon Council could see the entire battlefield even more clearly.
It was as if an indomitable giant beast had chomped down on the area behind the troll. A huge crescent shaped area suddenly sank by a full five meters.
No!
It's not just five meters!
It was as if the shapeless behemoth was biting down again, making the three-kilometer-long semicircular pit even deeper.
"Boom!" There was another loud noise.
Every time a loud noise came from the ground, the crack would expand, deepen, and widen.
No troll knew how deep the dark trench was, but it was already more than 30 meters wide.
"No!" The trolls were horrified to find that their escape route had been cut off! Before entering the forest again, they first had to face the huge trench that could not be crossed by themselves!
At this moment, Duque smiled.
"Kael, please. Use your flames to make the trolls jump into the trench and go to hell. "
Kael 'thas' eyes widened. He suddenly realized that this was the hunt that Duque was talking about!
Without hesitation, Kael 'thas activated all the magic circuits in his body. His entire body rose into the air and burst forth with a strong light that was enough to dazzle the eyes of every warrior on the battlefield.
The power of the flames that flowed out of Kael 'thas' body was too terrifying. In just a few breaths, he turned into a huge and illusory fire phoenix.
This huge creature that was burning with flames slowly floated down from the city wall. It pounced on its flame wings that were wider than the main gate of Silvermoon City. Every time it flapped its wings, it swept up blazing turbulence.
Kael 'thas did not even have to attack. Just the power of the flames that flowed out was already like a flaming storm that could destroy half of the forest.
The High Elves watched as their prince flew over their heads with a ferocious might that could overturn the entire battlefield. They immediately burst into loud cheers that could overturn the clouds in the sky.
"Long live the Sunstrider!"
"Long live His Highness Kael 'thas!"
Kael 'thas activated all the magic circuits in his body, and the various magic treasures of the Sunstrider Royal Family on his body immediately shone brightly. He pushed his palms forward, and a wall of fire that was more than two kilometers wide appeared on the battlefield.
