"Troll?" As soon as he saw the group of blue-skinned big guys, Vereesa immediately took off the Titans' Strike from behind, aimed at one of them and shot an arrow.

Aaron is concerned about another question, "So Dun Morogh also has Troll?"

"Of course, the Ice Trolls here have always been a big trouble for the dwarves and dwarfs," Vereesa explained to Aaron while staring closely at the group of approaching Ice Trolls. As the feuds of the Trolls, the High Elfs have always paid close attention to the news about the Trolls.

"I thought only Northrend had Ice Troll." Aaron muttered, getting ready for battle.

However, according to Aaron's estimation, those Ice Trolls shouldn't be able to climb up, so Aaron only needs to protect Vereesa from being hurt by Troll's long-range attacks.

Vereesa shot several arrows in succession, hitting several Ice Troll who were carelessly walking in the forest. However, he stopped shooting with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Something is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"Logically speaking, after discovering that they were targeted by archers, Troll should give priority to hiding behind the trees, and then look for opportunities to launch a surprise attack, but now..." Vereesa pointed at the woods in front of them, The Ice Trolls didn't seem to be in a hurry to hide. Instead, they threw weapons such as spears at Dreadwake from time to time. However, these Troll's throwing attacks seemed to have poor accuracy, and few of them could even land near Dreadwake.

"Indeed." Aaron looked at these tough-looking Ice Troll, and was also curious about what tricks these Ice Troll were doing. "Maybe they lack experience in dealing with long-range attacks?" No. As soon as these words were spoken, Aaron realized that he was mistaken. Not to mention the various black technologies of the dwarves, the dwarves were also well-established musketeers. It was impossible for these Ice Trolls to lack experience in dealing with long-range weapons.

"Forget it, if you can kill one, it's one." Vereesa quickly gave up thinking about the possible conspiracy behind the abnormal behavior of these Ice Trolls, and instead continued to attack Trolls.

"Dang!" At this moment, Aaron suddenly saw several grappling hooks grabbing on the side of Dreadwake's ship. Before Aaron could react, he heard a shout, and Aaron felt Dreadwake shake and tilt in the direction of those grappling hooks.

Aaron approached the side of the ship and looked down, only to see several Ice Trolls pulling the rope tightly, intending to pull Dreadwake to the ground. Although he did not understand that these Ice Trolls seemed to have such targeted attack methods, Aaron realized that, Behind these strange behaviors of Ice Troll lies the ambush they had set up a long time ago - Aaron didn't see these Troll running towards him just now. Apart from the fact that these Troll had already been ambush here, Aaron couldn't think of any other possibility.

"Vereesa, be careful, I'm going to deal with these guys below." Aaron gave Vereesa a Blessing of Sacrifice, and he jumped down Dreadwake.

Facing Aaron's attack, these Ice Trolls still fought hard at first, but after a while, they realized that the shining golden guy in front of them was stronger than themselves, so they retreated one after another, trying to escape.

Aaron was just about to step on the snow to hunt down these Ice Troll, lest they come back later and repeat their old tricks, but found that there was something wrong with the direction in which these Troll were escaping, and it felt as if they were trying to print Aaron away.

After realizing this, Aaron struck Holy Light Warhammer at the slowest running Ice Troll, and used his screams to urge the other Troll to run harder. After running, he turned around and looked at the woods facing the side of the Dreadwake ship. He happened to see several Ice Trolls emerge from behind the trees, holding small tomahawks and throwing them in this direction, but the target was Vereesa.

Upon seeing this, Aaron hurriedly jumped back to the ship, dragging Vereesa who could not react quickly, and rolled to the side, avoiding the attack from Troll. Seeing that Vereesa was safe and sound, Aaron was relieved.

"How dare you sneak attack me! Aaron protect me, I must teach these Troll a lesson!" Vereesa stood up, said angrily, and launched a counterattack against the Trolls in the forest. Arrows flew into the forest like a rainstorm.

Faced with Vereesa's stormy attack, Ice Troll chose the right response this time and hid behind the tree one after another. From time to time, a Troll would flash from behind the tree and want to attack Vereesa launched an attack, but most of them could only be shot to the ground by Vereesa. The few weapons that missed the target, such as axes and spears, would only be blocked by Aaron, posing no threat to Vereesa at all.

However, Vereesa couldn't do anything to those Troll hiding behind the trees. Although Titans' Strike greatly strengthened her attack power, she couldn't let the arrow penetrate the thick trunk. For a while, the situation became stalemate and turned into a competition of patience between the two sides.

"Everyone, prepare to attack!" Just as Aaron and the others were playing whack-a-mole with these Ice Troll, they suddenly heard a high-pitched shout coming from the forest.

"Vereesa, did you hear anything?" Aaron was suspicious that he heard it wrong at first, but soon he heard more voices:

"The first team will follow me Charge, and the second team will surround you. Don't let these guys get away who dare to sneak attack."

The person shouting seemed to be a commander, constantly giving orders and directing the battle, but neither the commander nor his soldier Dou Emi showed up.

After hearing that voice, the Ice Trolls who had been patiently fighting with Aaron and the others became panicked. For a time, the snow-covered woods were full of Ice Troll figures running around in panic.

"Okay, you finally showed up." Vereesa whispered, the Titans' Strike in his hand aimed at a Ice Troll who was obviously more neatly dressed than the other Ice Troll.

Vereesa remembered clearly that just now, the guy suspected of being the leader of Ice Troll took advantage of his unpreparedness and commanded his men to launch a sudden attack on him. If Aaron hadn't come back in time to help, he might have fallen into the trap of these cunning enemies.

Now that he had the opportunity, Vereesa would naturally let this guy who had been hiding from the beginning so that he could not seize the opportunity to attack, have a taste of his own archery skills.

With this thought in mind, Vereesa's arrow worked extremely well. The arrow covered with electric light hit the Troll leader who had revealed his whereabouts in a hurry in the blink of an eye. The arrow directly tore apart. On most of Troll's shoulders, flashing electric light flowed across Troll's body, and a stream of blood spurted out from the wound. The leader of Troll screamed in pain and cast a vicious glance at Vereesa.

However, Vereesa, who had taken a small revenge, was naturally not afraid of this. He even looked at the leader of Troll, and demonstratively raised the Titans' Strike in his hand to challenge that Troll.

However, the furious Ice Troll leader soon had no time to respond to Vereesa's provocation. Their old rivals, the dwarfs, had surrounded them. What Troll now had to consider was how to escape from the encirclement. As for the annoying archer and Paladin, they had to pretend they didn't exist.

"Kill them and make them pay for their actions!" Soon, the dwarfs whose actions in the forest had caused panic among the Ice Trolls emerged from the forest, and the commander issued an order to his men.

Although these little guys appear to be very non-threatening due to their size, the standard armors they wear and the weapons with flashing electric lights in their hands pose a serious threat to these Ice Trolls, not to mention the various small machines assisting them.

As old rivals who have been hostile to each other for thousands of years, these gnomes obviously know how to deal with Ice Troll. No matter whether these panicked Ice Troll want to force a breakout, or they want to hide in the snow environment and wait for an opportunity to escape, they can only be caught and killed by the dwarfs one by one.

In the blink of an eye, these dozens of Ice Troll were eliminated by these dwarfs, whose number was slightly smaller than their opponents. Only a few lucky ones escaped with injuries.
