Azeroth has no trolls

Chapter 102

The arrival of the spider demigod Shadra caused waves in the Zanchuli Council. Members were very curious about this long-known loa god. After learning about his experience, the members were very excited. Trying to figure out what kind of bug could hurt a loa.

Regarding the fact that his great king personally led a team to investigate, the Zanchuli Council had no choice but to agree to Dasa's request after a brief meeting.

After all, with the prestige of the current His Majesty, he is an unrivaled existence in the entire Kingdom of Zandalari.

"This will be a time-consuming operation, so during my absence, the operation of the kingdom will be entrusted to you."

Dasa was wearing a brand new armor, looking at the Zanchuli councilors in the council hall with a serious expression.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

A group of congressmen responded to Daza's order.

It takes a long time to go from the city of Zulga to the savannah further south in the Zandalar mountains. According to the map drawn by the wind snake rider who has been scouting south, they want to arrive by pterodactyl. That savannah would be flying for as much as a month.

Considering that pterodactyls may not be suitable for activities in the savannah, Dasa and his team chose velociraptors with more versatile terrain as mounts for this expedition.

Zulga City, No. 20 when the city was founded, Dasa took the Zandalari guards on a journey southward to investigate.

After leaving the city of Zurga, walk on the solid main road all the way to the south.

After passing through the villages of Jianjiao, Claw, and the southern village renamed Rezan's Family, they went deep into the mountains of Zandalar, walked on the rugged mountain road, and turned over one mountain after another; From dense forests to alpine meadows, from mossy stones to snow-capped mountains.

After climbing over one mountain after another and entering the Flying Wing Canyon; after resting for three days at the current pterodactyl dragoon training site, Dasa and his party embarked on the journey again.

The further south you go, the drier the environment becomes. After walking out of the Flying Wing Canyon, you have to shuttle through a dry ditch.

Under the scorching sun, Dasa and his party walked slowly through the dry ditch; thanks to the airdropped supplies from the pterodactyl dragoons, Dasa and his party successfully walked out of the driest area in the south of the Zandalar Mountains.

Feeling the humid air, Dasa took a deep breath, stood on the top of the mountain with his arms outstretched, and breathed in the cool breeze blowing from the grassland in the distance.

"Your Majesty, according to the map we will be able to walk out of the Zandalar Mountains this afternoon."

Apache took a map made out of linen and walked to Dasa's side to report.

"Well, then everyone, eat something, drink some water, and we should set off. Let me take a good look at what kind of state the Gurubashi tribal alliance is in."

As he spoke, Dasa turned around and walked down the rocky mountain in two steps. He also took the water bag from the hand of Comanche and took a sip for himself.

The water in the water bag is almost exhausted, but they can already walk out of this dry ditch this afternoon.

Ahead is a large piece of sparse forest grassland.

After a simple rest and supplies, Dasa stopped riding the velociraptor in the savannah that seemed to be close in front of him, and rushed down the mountain with two long legs.

Seeing this, the members of the guards had no choice but to turn over and jump off the velociraptor, and followed their majesty down the mountain.

When the sun was setting, Dasa and his party came to a small river in this savannah and set up camp.

The bonfire was lit, and the flame symbolizing civilization was ignited on this savannah.

Dasa was sitting on a blanket, looking at the savannah against the setting sun, chewing on a roasted antelope leg and a cup of freshly boiled hot water.

It's such a leisurely time, away from those desk documents, I can finally relax, and if I continue to do that, I'm afraid I'm going to die suddenly.

Squinting his eyes to feel the warmth of the setting sun, Dasa ate the leg of lamb with a relaxed expression.

"Your Majesty, I have already checked the surrounding situation and confirmed that there are no creatures threatening us."

Pector, a member of the Guards, jumped off his velociraptor and walked quickly to Dasa's side to report.

"Well, let's go get something to eat."

Dasa nodded, pointed to the meat still roasting on the bonfire ahead, and signaled Pequot to eat.

"Your Majesty, when I was investigating to the south, I found a small settlement, which should belong to the Gurubashi trolls. Shall we go there to rest?"

Dasa was also informed of his discovery by another warrior returning from scouting.

Dasa said that it would be no problem to visit there after dawn the next day.

After simply packing up the camp, the team of 13 people headed towards the Gurubashi troll settlement mentioned last night.

Strolling through the early morning savannah, Dasa thought about what he might see the Gurubashi trolls do later.

The whereabouts of Dasa and his party were clearly seen in this savannah. From the first time they appeared, outsiders like them attracted the attention of the Gurubashi trolls in this small settlement.

Comanche took the initiative to stand up and explain the purpose of his group for this small settlement. The name of the Zandalari Kingdom has been spread in this savannah for some time. The leader of this small settlement looked at Dasa and his group. After dressing up, I believed Comanche's words.

After all, only the trolls of the Zandalari Kingdom have such clean skin, without any traces of ornamentation or piercing.

During the conversation, the two sides learned that the loa deity believed by this small Gurubashi troll settlement is Akunda, and Mohegan, who found out here, chatted excitedly with these Gurubashi trolls. He himself is Followers of Akunda.

After chatting for a while, Dasa also asked the trolls about the Zerg.

"Well, Warchief from the great Zandalari tribe, why do you ask these bugs?"

The leader of the settlement looked at Daza in confusion.

"So, you know those Zergs?"

Dasa sat on the carpet and stared at the chief.

"It's just that the children in our settlement told the people about the bugs after a gathering and hunting. We also sent people to the place he said, but there was nothing there, only some rabbits and gophers left behind. Little cave."

The leader of the settlement felt that the so-called big bug was nonsense. They had already searched for those places and found nothing.

"Can we meet the kid?"

Comanche on the side looked at the leader.

"That kid often tells lies, is very dishonest; he won't change after repeated admonition. Do you really want to listen to him?"

The settlement leader hesitated.

"Let us meet that child first, after all, these bugs are related to Master Shadra's commission."

Apache still insisted, and told the leader that they came here to find bugs after accepting the entrustment of the Loa gods.

"Really? Loa's entrustment. I understand, Su, go and call Keto. Tell him, this is the Loa god who wants to ask him, don't lie anymore."

Seeing that the other party was so persistent, the leader asked the hunter on the side to call the child over.

After a while, a thin troll boy walked into the somewhat gloomy tent under the leadership of the troll hunter.

"This is the great chief from the great northern tribe. He came with a mission from a loa. Keto, you must answer his question truthfully."

First, he introduced Dasa's identity to the boy in detail, and at the same time warned him not to lie.

"Okay, this leader doesn't have to be so harsh on a child, isn't your name Keto?"

After the leader finished speaking, Dasa calmed down the visible nervousness of the troll boy, and then asked.

Facing Dasa's question, this young man named Keto was a little nervous at first, but as the conversation deepened, both sides relaxed, especially when Dasa took out a piece of blood from Zul from his bag. After giving the other party the brown sugar made by the Jiacheng Sugar Factory.

"Those giant bugs are real."

"Keto! I told you everything, don't lie!"

"Okay, Mr. First. Please let him finish."

Daza was a little dissatisfied with the leader interrupting his conversation with Keto, and gave him a cold look.

The leader of the settlement was also completely silent because of Dasa's glance.

"Great chief, if you believe me, I can show you the way!"

Keto has always wanted to prove that he is not lying. What he has heard and seen is true, but the people in his own settlement do not believe what he has seen and heard.

"Well, then you can lead the way for us now. The safety of this child is entrusted to you along the way in Moxigan. We wait for no one when we go."

As soon as Dasa heard what the other party said, he got up and walked out of the tent, and the rest of the guards also left the tent with Dasa.

Before leaving, Dasa left two bronze hand axes to the Gurubashi settlement as a gift for their guide.

Thirteen riders galloped across this savannah like this, starting from this settlement and headed southwest all the way.

"Great Chief, that child has a strong talent for priesthood."

The Comanche caught up to Daza's raptor and followed his mount.

"Huh? Could it be that he can feel the Holy Light just like you?"

Dasa turned to look at Comanche upon hearing this.

"No, on the contrary. This boy's talent is not in the holy light, but in the power that is opposite to it."

Comanche shook his head, he could feel that the Holy Light he used didn't like that boy.As a result, there was a speculation that although he joined the Guards, he was still a priest.

"Shadow? No wonder that child can see things that other trolls can't see. Protect him. After confirming the location, send this child back to the academy. We have no reason to give up such a spellcaster."

Dasa pondered for a moment and made a decision.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Comanche finished speaking, he rode the Velociraptor to the side of Mohawk.

Under Keto's guidance, the trolls came to the pasture he mentioned. At first glance, it seemed that this place was no different from other places.

"Are you sure it's here?"

Mohigan looked down at Keto who was riding with him, he didn't find anything special here, he was the most elite group of hunters in the tribe.

Any abnormal phenomenon cannot hide from his perception, but now he really didn't find any difference here.

"It's here. I could still see those big beetles here last time."

Keto looked at Mohawk with certainty.

"It's getting late, so let's stay here tonight. At least this area is already within the attack range that Shadra told us. Let's start looking for work tomorrow."

Dasa jumped off the velociraptor, checked the current location on the map, and then made a judgment.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After listening to Dasa's order, the rest of the trolls also came down and started to act.

As night fell, the white lady and the blue child appeared in the sky, and the stars looked so dim under the moonlight.

Listening to the sound of insects and the breeze, Dasa sat in front of the campfire and fiddled with firewood.

"Your Majesty, are you still resting?"

Keto got out of the tent and came to the campfire.

"You kid, you still don't go to bed, what do you want to do so late?"

Dasa turned his head to look at him.

"My lord, I saw those big beetles in such an environment that day."

Keto landed on another stone next to Dasa.

"Really? You mean, those beetles are mostly active at night?"

Upon hearing these words, Dasa's eyes also changed from the original leisurely to sharp, his eyes looked beyond the slowly burning bonfire to the grassland in the distance.

During his investigation in the afternoon, he saw a lot of earth caves in that direction.

After waiting like this, most of the night passed. After all, Keto was still a young child and couldn't hold on. He returned to the camp to rest. Only Dasa was still sitting there and staring into the distance.

There were also other guards who came to persuade Dasa to rest, but he refused them all.

And just as dawn was approaching, Dasa's long ears moved, and he heard some discordant sounds from the quiet surroundings.

It was a sound of digging, and he lay down on the ground unsafely, leaning his ear to the ground and listening.

The sound of digging grew louder, and he was sure now that there was something wrong with the grass.

Just as he was thinking about his next move, there was a sudden change in the area of ​​the cave.

A collapse occurred, and a strange beetle with the height of an adult troll appeared from the collapsed pit.

"Come on! Let me see what you are!"

Without saying a word, Dasa pulled out the steel sword he carried at all times and rushed out. The guard on duty also noticed the change in the grassland. He immediately blew the wooden whistle on his neck, and the sharp whistle broke the situation. silent night.The guards in the tent rushed out with weapons in hand.

At this moment, Dasa had already charged in front of the beetle that broke out of the ground, and the steel sword in his hand was ready to pierce the opponent's head.

A sudden encounter started.
