The personnel for the trip to the north have been finalized. They are the best warriors in the north. They include five lords, more than thirty knights, more than twenty dwarves, and some members of the Knights of the Sons of Esun.
But Rhodes always felt uneasy, as if there was a bond in the dark that prevented him from sleeping peacefully. This bond did not come from Grimgor Ironhide, nor was it the Troll King he had never met. It was an almost divine power.
Rhodes instinctively felt that this trip to the north would be unimaginably bumpy. The last time he went to the Troll Mountains, he met the bear spirit Ursock. This time, he was going deeper into the Troll Mountains. However, his opponent
Maybe it's not just as simple as the Troll King...
As for what it is specifically, Rhodes doesn't know.
The bed was very warm, but Rhodes couldn't fall asleep. Next to him was the naked Caroline. She seemed to be sleeping soundly... The increasingly cold body made Rhodes realize that she might no longer be an ordinary frost.
The Cold Witch. Perhaps in the actual battles, Caroline's abilities have already improved to a surprising level. It's just that the Snow Queen has too much time to take care of herself. Otherwise, logically speaking, Caroline should be invited to the magic academy.
, accept the assessment.
After a light night's sleep, Watch Castle ushered in the rising sun. The whole castle was filled with a solemn and solemn feeling of seeing off the heroes. The remaining people and the remaining soldiers stood on both sides of the road to watch the "death squad" set off.
.Everyone knows that in a few days, this army of only a few hundred people will face the pursuit of thousands of greenskins alone.
It was not warm in the north in early spring, and the troops marched all the way north through the snow that had not yet melted. They passed through the desolate steppe, walked in the rolling hills and mountains, and finally passed through the dark forest and walked out of the Kislev border.
In front of us is the land of trolls. Even Rhodes rarely sets foot on this land. It is chaotic and disorderly, and all kinds of creatures are rampant here. There is no law, no kingdom, everything is primitive, barbaric and chaotic.
.Only the strong can survive here. Skaven, greenskins, dwarves, beastmen...all kinds of creatures are fighting here, day after day, year after year.
Rhodes signaled the troops to follow them, but they were still far away from their real destination - the Troll Mountains. Grimgor Ironhide and his greenskin army were right behind them, following closely. Unlike the human troops, the greenskin
The troops hardly need supplies. They plunder all the plants and animals along the way. Even if there is nothing, as long as there is sunshine, they can survive for a while... Rhodes knows Ironhide's character. Once this guy
After locking on the target, they will chase and kill them at all costs. Lawrence and the dwarf rangers are investigating the intelligence behind them and constantly reporting back the green skin's information. According to the intelligence, the distance between Iron Skin and himself is always about four days' journey. This is also
This means that your troops cannot have any accidents. Once an accident occurs, the four-day journey will soon be overtaken.
Fatigue was written on everyone's face. Even the dwarves, who were known for their strong endurance, felt that the soles of their feet were getting heavier and heavier. The only one in the crowd who felt energetic was Caroline...
It's freezing in the north, and normal people have to consume more calories to maintain their body temperature. But Caroline is different. As a frost witch, her constitution is cold. At the same time, the colder the climate, the weaker her frost magic.
The stronger she is. She can almost feel the frost energy contained under this land, which is several times stronger than Kislev. This means that her power has been greatly strengthened here. Rhodes originally did not intend to let herself
My wife took another risk, but then I thought about it, the north is the main battlefield of the Frost Witch. If she is not allowed to go, the strength of the team will be greatly reduced.
"Rod, my old friend, there is something I haven't told you."
On the way, they sat down to rest. Bogul, the dwarf butcher and the guide for this journey, took the initiative to come over and sit next to Rhodes. He looked worried, with a tangled emotion rarely seen in the past written on his face.
.
"What happened? Don't tell me how you forgot the way."
Rhodes asked jokingly.
"No, no, I remember how to walk. I will remember how to walk that road all my life." Bogur said, his mouth was hidden under his thick beard, and his lips could hardly be seen when he opened and closed them.
"What's that? Tell me, as long as you remember the way, it won't be a big deal."
Rhodes smiled.
"It's a long story, so I'll make it short. You all know how I turned from a ranger to a butcher. But there is one thing I have never said, and you don't even know."
Bogul opened the bottle, took a sip of dwarf spirit, and then said——
"Back then, my expedition team and I were not actually on a reconnaissance and exploration mission, but went there privately to explore the legendary lost treasure - the Chaos invasion two hundred years ago, which was eventually destroyed by Magnus
The humans led by the Dwarf Alliance were defeated, but at that time, some treasures fell into the hands of the Chaos tribe, and some were left around the world when the Chaos army was defeated. What I know is that some things were taken away by the Troll King.
Gone. So, that year, my expedition team and I ventured into the Troll King's lair in an attempt to seize those lost treasures."
"Then he was discovered by the Troll King?"
Rhodes asked calmly. Although this was the first time Bogul said it, such a thing is not unexpected in the dwarf world. It can be said to be common. However, Bogul's history is indeed a bit embarrassing. Under the double blow,
That's why he became a butcher.
"Yes. We had already touched the treasure at that time, but we didn't know that the Troll King had already blocked the entrance of the cave and was ready to catch us all." Bogul took another sip of strong wine, "What I want to say is, I know the treasure.
Where. When the time comes, if I face the Troll King again, Rhodes, you can go grab that treasure..."
Ha ha……
"Don't look down on those things. Treasures are called treasures for a reason. There will be things you want there, and those things are no longer important to me."
Bogul said seriously and solemnly. Rhodes had never seen him look so serious before. Bogul must have been prepared for the final battle. If he can face the Troll King bravely in the upcoming battle,
Even if he was killed by the Troll King, it was a worthy death. As for the treasure...
"What exactly is in the treasure?"
Rhodes asked.
"You will know that there is something very important to you. This is information that was obtained with the lives of my teammates. I will tell you where it is."
