Chapter 55 Siege
As soon as Taelan Fordring appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the troll army. At this time, Zubrin Twisted Branch, who had been commanding the Zul'Matha trolls in the rear, suddenly shouted in Common: "Glory of the Holy Light?"

Taelan Fording felt extremely strange! Something seemed to be wrong.

As a troll, why did Zubrin Twisted Branch know my title? He looked at this ordinary troll seriously and did not respond.

Bridget also heard something wrong, she said: "Ignore it!"

She sensed something was wrong. Taelan Fordring had no experience with the trolls of Zul'Matha.

He spent most of his time learning the Way of Holy Light from Archbishop Faol, or stationed in Darrowshire to learn dwarven fighting from his dwarven teacher, Has Stonewine. How could they know his name?

At this time, someone interrupted and said, "Lord Knight Taelan Fordring, act quickly. Renault is in trouble!" It was Devlin Agamand, a straightforward man.

Taelan Fording did not respond, but he was thinking about many things in his mind. There was something wrong with this man. He should not call out the commander's full name in front of the enemy.

Zubrin Twisted Branch did not shout, he shouted a few words to his trolls in Troll language. Then he personally commanded all the Zul'Matha trolls to attack Taelan Fordring. Facing the attack of so many people, Taelan Fordring was also stunned for a moment.

What? Did I dig up your ancestors' graves?
(Does anyone remember this mission?)
You were hiding behind just now, but now you are leading the charge?

Tyran Fording quickly took out a Silver Hand Paladin shield and injected holy light into it. Activate skill:
"Holy Shield".

A powerful holy light descended from the sky and hit Tyran Fording's shield. When the holy light disappeared, Tyran Fording's shield changed drastically, and a cross condensed with holy light appeared on it.

Looking at the number of headhunters on the opposite side, Taelan Fordring wisely jumped off his horse.

The next scene stunned everyone. Taelan Fording, who was holding the shield, was unharmed.

"My horse!"

There was a whizzing sound. All the javelins were nailed on Tyran Fording's horse. A white horse was shot into a hedgehog. Isn't it the warrior himself who is threatening?

This warhorse seemed to have not figured out what was going on: should we shoot the horse first before shooting the person?

Before Taelan Fordring could recover from his heartbreak, a strong Zul'Matha troll warrior rushed over.

The angry Tyran raised his shield and struck hard, knocking its long-handled weapon away. He then struck it with his war hammer in his right hand, hitting it right in the head with a snap, like smashing a watermelon.

Three more troll warriors rushed over and surrounded Tyran Fording. Tyran suddenly jumped up and hit the strongest warrior on the head with a hammer. The other two immediately followed up, preparing to attack Tyran from three sides.

But the troll warrior in front of him could not withstand the blow and was knocked down. A holy light radiated from Tailan's body and the two troll warriors beside him were also knocked down.

Mass Knockdown! This was Tirion Fording's inherited Holy Light skill. Then Taelan mercilessly killed the three knocked down trolls.

At this moment, Zubrin Twisted Branch, who was holding back, shuddered. The lightning chain that was almost finished chanting the spell was suddenly interrupted, making his nerves feel like being pricked by a needle.

Bridget and Demetrius, withdraw from the valley.

At first, Bridget and Taylan Fording seemed to have the same idea.

The powerful recovery aura of Tyran Fording, the sacred spells of Demetria and Angela, the pious aura of Bridget, and the powerful cleave of Tyran Fording allowed them to defend the narrow mountain pass.

When Davi Falair and Paris arrive with their army, they can attack from both sides and defeat the troll army in one fell swoop.

Taelan Fording looked at Bridget who had withdrawn, waiting for an explanation.

"Great Knight, Raynor is dying. He must be bleeding internally, and healing magic is completely ineffective!" Devlin Agamand spoke. Then he looked at Taelan Fording, waiting for him to make a decision.

Demetria immediately understood what Devlin meant.

Many people already know that Taelan Fordring is a natural priest, or to be more precise, a natural discipline priest and defense warrior.

There are many people with this talent, for example, Turalyon has two talents, priest and paladin. But Taelan Fording was lucky enough to awaken naturally as a paladin. This allowed him to learn the paladin's most powerful sacred spell: holy healing!
The creator of this spell was none other than Taelan Fording's teacher, Alonsus Faol. This powerful spell could revive the wounded as long as they were still alive.

But the cost of Lay on Healing is too high, it will make a Paladin lose all his mana. In normal times, this is nothing. But this is a battlefield, facing an army of trolls, you let a Paladin who prefers spellcasting lose all his mana.

This request is extremely excessive! Because Tailan is not only a spellcaster, he is also the commander of the entire battle, the main combat force, and he is also a soldier. And Renault and he don't have a good relationship. This is a test of human nature.

Human nature cannot stand the test and should not be tested.

Demetria looked at Taelan Fording, waiting for his decision:

The youngest Grand Knight of the Silver Hand, the future Lord of Hearthglen, the Grand Lord of Mardenholde, and the future Archbishop of the Alliance Holy Light Church!
A bright future beckons him, he has two choices, and no one can blame him.

Reason told her that it was the best choice to give up Raynor, lead the troops to hold the position, wait for reinforcements to arrive, and then pacify Zul'Masha and achieve success.

Another option is to use Holy Healing to revive Reno, who has a bad relationship with him. If he loses all his mana, he will probably die in the next battle. If the war fails because of this, even if he survives by chance, he will be judged.

Driven by the twisted branches, the troll started to attack again. It didn't want to give these ugly two-legged beasts a chance to breathe.

Tyran Fording said in a deep voice: "Bridget, retreat to the valley immediately. You and Demetria will cooperate to temporarily hold off the enemy's attack."

Demetria didn't know how to evaluate this decision. At least this knight was a reliable man. The one from Kul Tiras was not a wrong choice.

She was a soldier, and it was her duty to carry out the orders of her commander. Bridget nodded gratefully to Taelan Fording. This decision made the remaining people stand in awe!
Bridget and Demetria led the remaining brothers to defend the mountain pass. In fact, they took advantage of it. The bravery of Tyran Fordring just now made the trolls panic and failed to take the opportunity to block the mountain pass. Otherwise, even if they wanted to fall into the trap, they would have to go through a hard battle.

Taelan Fording raised his hands, and his whole body was enveloped by milky white holy light. An illusory crystal dome appeared in the sky, and the blue boy poked his head out of the clouds mischievously. A holy light descended from the sky, warming the entire valley. Raynor's bleeding stopped immediately. Bridget said, "Unparalleled power of holy light, noble and great soul!"

"Only such a person is worthy of being the Knight Commander of the Silver Hand."

Renault's body recovered, but he passed out from excessive blood loss.

Devlin watched coldly as Tyran Fording used all his mana to save a useless burden. He disregarded the lives of others. Is he considered a soldier? Such a person has great power but is too soft-hearted. He will never achieve great things.

The front line changed quickly. Bridget only lasted a few waves of attacks before being beaten back.

Taelan Fording knew what Bridget was capable of, so he pulled himself together and came to the front line again.

Demetria had been staring at Taelan Fordring, and Taelan Fordring finally had a chance to say something to her.

He quickly frowned: "Where's Tina? Why don't I see her?"

Angela stole a glance at the unconscious Reno. Bridget lowered her head in shame.

Tyran Fording didn't say anything. Any decision on the battlefield was a gamble with the lives of his men. As a general, he should always remain calm and never act on impulse.

He replaced a knight on the front line. He knew that he had no mana left and could not use those powerful abilities to become invincible. He had to allocate every bit of mana he recovered well.

After you recover some mana, you have to open the Violet Eye.

At this time, the Zul'Matha trolls actually began to attack regardless of casualties.

Taelan Fording's teacher, Harth Stonewine, taught him well. After Taelan kicked an enemy in the stomach, the dwarf praised him as a qualified dwarf fighter.

Soon, five more troll warriors were killed by Tailan at the entrance of the valley.

Tareshson felt a sharp pain in his flesh. He had just killed the old chieftain of the Zul'Matha trolls the day before yesterday! He had just reached an agreement with Twisted Branch. After today's battle, the Zul'Matha trolls finally looked like a bit better. Then this little brat came and rushed in and killed more than a dozen of them.

It wanted to win reputation and support among the Zul'Matha trolls and quell the rumors of killing their chieftain. It must stand up when necessary. Although Taelan Fordring looked fierce, according to his intuition, he should be two levels higher than him. With so many people besieging him, couldn't he kill him? Moreover, after the holy light appeared in the valley, he seemed to be much weaker.

As for Raynor's group, only the two leading females were capable. Also, the atmosphere between some people there made the demon very uncomfortable, and it felt weird. It was a bit like the relationship between those brain-damaged Zul'Gurub trolls!
It figured it out and took action immediately. It roared loudly and then spoke some troll language. All attacks stopped again.

Tareshsen ordered the troll troops to leave the mountain pass. It stood alone in the middle. It stretched out a finger with its left hand, pointed at itself, then at Taelan Fordring, then raised its great sword and spoke something in the troll language.

This time all the trolls shouted. A duel between chieftains was better than their own death. They loved watching this kind of scene.

He saw its meaning, and it saw his weakness. Taelan Fordring accepted the challenge. Why not!
Soon the two men were in the open space, and both sides roared and launched attacks.

His inference was correct. This little guy was much weaker than before. He used all his warrior abilities. It was just that his offense and defense rarely made mistakes, unlike the flashy elves he had encountered before.

And he was very insidious, kicking his raised foot with his own foot.

The two men's fists collided again, and the two sides separated. Their eyes met, and a strong fighting spirit collided fiercely between the two men. Tareshsen launched a rage! The anger began to grow on its own.

Taelan Fordring knew that he would soon use a control ability such as Hamstring or Thunder Clap.

In the midst of a huge army, we must capture the leader and not drag our feet. A shadow like arcane wisdom rose above Tyran's head. Then golden lightning spread over him.

He activated the double amulet. Then he turned into lightning and hit Tareshsen. The troll wanted to break his hamstring first and then use his physical advantage to kill Tailan. I didn't expect him to use interception. I have to be careful.

But Taelan Fording hit him all of a sudden, and the powerful blow immediately made him dizzy. He hurriedly retreated, preparing to accumulate strength, but it was not over yet. The boy actually hit him again.

Talented? Can he make two interceptions?
He endured the dizziness, and the soldier's strong body helped him again. He retreated again.

That man bumped into me again!
Are you cheating?
If you walk by the river often, you will get your shoes wet. He was really stunned. Not only was he good at hammering, but he also had a heavy attack!
After using his skills several times, Tyran Fording recovered a lot of mana. After this holy charge, the terrifying enthusiasm was activated!
"what!"

Tareshson screamed, he was hit by Zeal for 5 times. He received times of heavy damage. He had given up the dream of becoming the King of Zul'Matha. His life was at stake!
But its misfortune was not over yet. Taelan Fording intercepted it again! The iconic arm weapon glowed at the same time. Another fervent attack. Tareshsen was hit in the head with a hammer. No, it counted. Five hammers in total!
The tall, thin body fell weakly. It was dead! The new chief of Zul'Matha was one day older than their old chief!
Demetria felt like she was watching a show when she saw Tyran Fording fighting in front of her. The entire battle was as smooth as flowing water, extremely fast. He seemed to be charging at the troll chieftain from three angles at the same time. And the poor troll's head was hit from three sides at the same time! He died in the blink of an eye.

The prophecy had not lied to her! Today was not the day of her death!

Taelan Fording, who had killed Tareshsen, suddenly retreated, and after turning around, a blood-red anger burst out of his body! Then he inserted the war hammer diagonally into the ground! A powerful shock wave shot out from the hammer head, and a gully appeared on the ground, extending all the way back! With a bang! Everyone affected was dizzy!

High-level defense warrior's skills: shock wave!
Tyran Fording's shockwave, on the basis of the warrior skill, also adds a similar effect of dedication! Wherever the shockwave reaches, holy light will be left to continue burning the enemy!
Shockwave's target was Twisted Branch! It finally attacked when Taelan Fordring was about to kill Taresh'Sen, and it cast Malevolent Transformation. Taelan Fordring knocked it out directly! This time it was energy perception that saved him.

Although his shadow resistance was amazing, he didn't dare to gamble.

In the world of Azeroth, being affected by malicious polymorph was a very scary thing. He didn't dare to experiment with the effect of turning into a frog. He didn't know if the sacred armor would be turned into no armor by this kind of magic.

He had indeed been hit by the cat-transforming spell of a fellow heroic goblin. The voodoo spells of the trolls were all very weird. Some aspects were even more terrifying and bizarre than the power of fel energy!
Taelan Fordring interrupted Twisted Branch's spellcasting. Strangely, after killing Taresh'Sen, the Zul'Matha trolls did not disperse, but instead began to siege again.

At this time, Bridget finally recovered and immediately called her companions. Since the trolls had started to attack again, they would not just stand by and watch.

She knew she was no match for the Twisted Branch. Now she should protect Taelan Fordring and hold back the trolls under his command.

So the two sides started a melee again!
