Tales of the Highborne

Chapter 25 The End of Troll Civilization

The half-day snowstorm directly caused the area covered by magic to accumulate more than one meter of snow, and it was bone-chilling cold when approaching. It took half a month for the snow to melt completely. The snow water directly doubled the size of Falling Star Lake. After the snow melted, troll corpses were exposed all over the ground. It would take a long time just to deal with these corpses. If not dealt with, the corpses will cause a plague, which will be a disaster if it spreads. It will even contaminate the surrounding forest and make it a barren land. After discussion, Dath'Rema ordered that the corpses of all the trolls be gathered together, and the mage used magic to burn them all.

The gathered troll corpses were like a hill, which was breathtaking and shocking. Under the flames of the mages, thick smoke carrying the smell of corpses floated into the sky. Yueying was in a daze as he watched the troll corpses burning in the flames. He was thinking that they failed this time. The trolls successfully invaded. The corpses burning in the flames might be night elves, but more likely they were put on the barbecue grill and became the trolls' rations.

Three days later, news came from Aissalin. The newly established Pandaren Empire in the south defeated the Zandalari Empire, and the troll clan was now empty inside. Azshara ordered Dath'Remar to lead the leading troops to march directly towards the Amani Empire. Havis and Varoson would then lead another army to support them. This time they would directly destroy the two giants Amani and Gurubashi. The Demon Empire is now free from the threat of trolls. Yueying was ordered to lead a small team and cooperate with Astrana's sentries to clean up the remaining troll troops scattered in Ashenvale. These are the early troll scouts who scattered into Ashenvale. Most of them are high-level stalkers. If they are left alone, they will have a negative impact on life. The young night elves in Ashenvale are a very big threat. Since Maiev and the team members from the last raid were seriously injured and did not follow the army, the temple sent another high-ranking priest to replace Maiev and lead the priest team. Maiev and the others stayed to help Moon Shadow complete the task of clearing away the scattered troll scouts. This cleanup task took a total of half a year. These advanced stalkers have very strong survivability in the wild, and they are all masters of stealth, which caused a lot of trouble for their encirclement and suppression.

This is Moon Shadow's second time coming to Astrana. Unlike last time, he was not rejected by the local night elves. He had already heard that Moon Shadow fought bravely on the front line to defend their homeland, and for their He stayed in Ashenvale for half a year to clean up the remaining trolls. The night elves civilians and sentries here respected him. The children of the night elves even showed admiration in their eyes when they looked at him. There was even a child who ran up to him and handed him a wild fruit that he had picked himself. Yueying's heart felt hot. Looking at the faces and eyes of these people, he suddenly felt that everything was worth it.

The bright full moon hung in the sky, and the moon shadow lay on the roof. Starlight shone on him through the tree canopy. Looking at the bustling small town under the night, the moon shadow could not help but reveal a smile of relief. Maiev was sitting next to him, and the relationship between the two had become much closer since that time.

"I received the Queen's order." Yueying turned her gaze to the sky and said calmly.

"What did she say?" Maiev raised her eyebrows and asked.

"My mentor asked me to take the team to the front line to help Dath'Rema and the others," Yueying slowly sat up and said slowly.

"When are you going?" Maiev tightened her body suddenly and asked as calmly as possible.

"Just these few days." Yueying said, closing her eyes.

"I'll go with you." Maiev forced out a smile.

"Actually, after the war between Zandalari and the Pandaren Empire, the trolls are already very empty inside. Under the attack of Dath'Remar and the others, the Amani have abandoned their capitals Zul'Aman and Gurubashi and concentrated in Zul'Aman. Er'Grab, now we can only resist hard, and it will be a matter of time before we are defeated. I am not able to command the army like Dath'Remar, and I am not as strong as Harveys. It doesn't matter whether I go or not. The Queen just wants to Let me do some meritorious deeds and increase my reputation at the same time." Yueying shook her head and said.

"Don't belittle yourself. After all, we are still very young. In fact, you are already very powerful. Don't you know? Your name has been spread among the elves and civilians. They all call you "Dawn Star". There are many young night elves. We all admire you." Maiev said to Yueying with a smile on her lips.

""Star of Dawn" haha, it's a nice name. But I don't have anything to admire. I can't remember my name all the time. Lilith called me Yueying just because I could only think of the word Yueying at that time. . Since everyone has given me this name, I will definitely illuminate the final darkness for everyone like the stars at dawn." Yueying smiled and said seriously.

"You are a senior professional who killed more than ten trolls by yourself, and you are the Queen's only disciple. You are also the youngest magician, and even a senior warrior. It is normal for them to worship you," Maiev counted. said

.

"Don't go this time." Yueying turned around and grabbed Maiev's little hand and looked into Maiev's eyes and said softly, with a hint of request in her tone. Maiev was stunned by this sudden scene and her face turned dark. Fortunately, the moon shadow was covered by the night and she didn't see it. "I won't go. Who will save you if you encounter the same danger as last time." Maiev He moved nervously to pull his little hand away from Yueying's hand, but unexpectedly Yueying held on tighter. "I don't want to see you hurt anymore," Yueying said solemnly, looking at Maiev's somewhat evasive eyes. Listening to Yueying's sincere words, Maiev felt her heart beating fast and her ears burning a little. Maiev felt very embarrassed now. She had never been so fussy before, and she couldn't help but think that her brother Jarod would burst into laughter if he saw her like this. In a cruel move, Maiev suddenly bit Yueying's hand and quickly took out her pinched hand and ran away with a dark face.

Three days later, Moon Shadow left Astrana with his team. Many night elves came to see him off, but in the end he still failed to convince Maiev. This girl has her own pride and perseverance, and perhaps it is precisely because of this that Yueying likes her. Yueying and his team disappeared into the jungle amid the blessings of the night elf civilians.

Stranglethorn Vale, located in the south of Dusk Forest and Western Wilderness, may be the largest area in Azeroth, larger than Ashenvale. There are many trolls hidden in the dense jungle. Stranglethorn Valley is a huge rainforest area with continuous showers and an unbearable humid climate. It made the night elves who were accustomed to the cool and refreshing forest very uncomfortable. An army of nearly 300,000 night elves used this place as a temporary base after breaking through the jungle in the north of Zulkunda. Now we are preparing to attack Zul'Gurub, located in the easternmost part of Stranglethorn Valley. This is the birthplace of the Gurubashi civilization and their capital. It is the essence of the millennium wealth of the troll civilization. As long as the entire troll civilization here is breached, it will be over.

The army was pressed into camp in the middle of Stranglethorn Vale, just west of Zul'Gurub, next to the largest lake in Azeroth, called Lake Neferiti. The lake is filled with sludge and crawlers, and swimmers will know how miserable it is when they get stuck in it. The little fish that lives in the lake has sword-like teeth and will eat anything that falls into the lake. However, under the magic of the upper elves, all other creatures here were expelled and turned into a private swimming pool.

It took two months after leaving Ashenvale for Moon Shadow and the others to finally reach their destination. Dath'Rema and Xavius ​​welcomed him warmly. Then he told him about the current battle situation. The trolls could not match the magic of the upper elves and hid in Zul'Gurub. Moreover, a large amount of poison was placed around this area, and the protective elves on the moat were unable to attack it for a while.

A forceful attack will definitely cause the death of a large number of night elves. After several days of discussion, the night elves are preparing to use another large-scale magic attack. This time the magic will be released by more than 30,000 magicians, which will be more powerful than Ash Valley. That time was larger and more destructive. Yueying couldn't help but think of the mountains of troll corpses in Ashen Valley, but last time it was trolls that invaded and they fought to defend their homeland, they didn't feel too burdened, but this time it was them that invaded. This one-sided massacre made Yueying felt very uncomfortable. But he knew that this was the best way to allow more night elves to return home safely without dying in this incident.

Rolling dark clouds covered the entire sky of Zul'Gurub. The trolls who escaped in Ashenvale knew what was about to happen, but they were powerless. The strong wind mixed with ice shards roared towards the entire Zul'Gurub, like the end of the world. Many trolls couldn't bear it anymore and rushed outside the city. Suddenly, thousands of arrows were fired at the night elf archers who had been guarding outside the city, shooting the trolls who escaped from the city into a sieve. Yueying had also killed many trolls, but he was completely shocked when he saw this scene. The screams of the trolls resounded throughout the sky. We are all living creatures in this world. Logically speaking, every creature should have its own right to survive. And this war may directly destroy this troll civilization, making them disappear from the history of Azeroth.

Each time more than 10,000 people continued to output, and the magic power was restored every half a day. Zul'Gurub was shrouded in a blizzard for a week, and the snow was so thick that it directly covered the city wall. The water in the moat also condensed into ice, and the ground was covered with frozen insects and leaves of big trees. Under the magic of the elves above, it became a dead place. The surrounding area is full of corpses of trolls. The trolls once ruled most of Kalimdor and established two twin troll empires - the Gurubashi Empire in the southeastern jungle and the Amani Empire in the central forest. There was little friendship between the two empires, but war rarely broke out. At that time, their biggest common enemy was the Angela civilization, the third empire. Ahn'Qiraj are intelligent, insectoid creatures that rule the far west. These intelligent, insectoid creatures are eager to expand their territories and can be very evil. Angela is committed to ridding Kalimdor of all non-insect creatures, but the existence of trolls and the disappearance of those bugs speaks volumes.
