With a series of whooshing sounds, the magic arrows struck the Atal'ai Troll who were besieging Vol'jin!

As Jiang Jie and Anveena's strength increased, the power of the magic arrows grew stronger and stronger. In addition, Jiang Jie's archery skills were amazing, and the arrows went straight through the heart, leaving behind a series of chilling arrow holes!

Explosive Shot, Split Shot, Concussive Shot, Chimera Shot!

The orange bow, Thori'dal, is engraved with all sorts of runes. Almost all the archery techniques of High Elf and humans are encompassed by these magical runes. Activating specific runes can create specific magical arrows, whose effects are in no way inferior to, or even superior in quality, arrows. (◢随*梦*小◢.1a)

The Thori'dal is the most economical bow. In an era when arrows had to be purchased, it was truly the best weapon for hunters, bar none.

The magic sword was too powerful; if it were an ordinary person, whether human or High Elf, they would surely die.

But they were neither human nor High Elf; they were Troll.

The heart is also Troll's weak point, but not a fatal one. A piercing through the heart does not kill them, only severely injures them, and the wound heals at a visible, slow pace. This is the Troll's Regeneration ability, and what makes the Troll so terrifying!

Zul'jin, the leader of the Amani Trolls, had his arm severed and never recovered, while Vol'jin's severed fingers could Regeneration. Although the Troll in World of Warcraft don't have the same Regeneration abilities as those in D&D, where even severed heads can Regeneration, they are still terrifying.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Jiang Jie continued to draw his bow and nock arrows, firing one arrow almost every second at an extremely fast pace.

The orange bow automatically generates magic arrows; there's no need to retrieve them. Jiang Jie's shooting speed is directly proportional to his hand speed.

He stood on high ground, overlooking the entire battlefield. He didn't relentlessly attack any Troll, nor did he intend to eliminate any Troll. Instead, he was putting out fires, attacking the Atal'ai Troll closest to the Darkspear Trolls, and saving the lives of the Darkspear Trolls!

Killing the enemy is not as important as saving lives.

" Nicholas! Is that you?"

An Atal'ai Troll was attacking Vol'jin when a magic arrow pierced his left chest. Vol'jin seized the opportunity and swiftly attacked, Slice and Dice repeatedly with his twin blades. In less than a second, he made at least seven Slice and Dice, and finally kicked the Troll away. The voodoo on his twin blades directly destroyed the Troll's life force, and he was doomed!

Only Troll know the fastest and most effective way to kill Troll.

Vol'jin turned around and saw Jiang Jie.

"May the Holy Light deceive you, chieftain of the Darkspear Tribe, friend of Thrall." Jiang Jie nodded in acknowledgment, his hand speed undiminished, firing several more magic arrows. Single-handedly, he simultaneously halted the attack of over a dozen Troll, severely injuring them!

With just this bow and his own archery skills, he was already a ranger-lord level archer, no less skilled than Lor'themar or Halduron.

"I worship the Shadow, Grand Duke!"

Vol'jin replied calmly, then continued his attack, perfectly coordinating with Jiang Jie to force back the several Atal'ai Troll that were besieging him, before starting to support his other companions.

This Shadow Hunter, with his hunched back and even smaller-looking than the other Troll, is definitely a ruthless character who has experienced countless battles!

Hiss!

The eerie sounds sent chills down my spine, and hundreds of venomous snakes slithered out of the grass.

Jiang Jie looked up and saw a female Troll priestess holding a green serpent staff walking towards him, surrounded by several other Atal'ai Troll.

She suddenly stopped, raised her hands, pressed her wrists together, and shook her palms like snakes. Then, streaks of dark green energy emanated from her palms, transforming into venomous energy snakes that flew towards her at incredible speed, as fast as arrows!

"Snort!"

Jiang Jie raised his bow and fired three arrows simultaneously. One of the magic arrows pierced through the energy serpent that was flying towards him, while the other two arrows drew shuttle-like arcs in the sky and struck the Troll priest!

However, the magic arrow did not pierce the Troll priest.

It was only a minor injury; a layer of voodoo energy blocked the magic arrow, dissipating at least 70% of its power. Jiang Jie felt uncomfortable all over, as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake, a snake many times stronger than himself!

"She's a priestess of Hethiss! Hethiss is the goddess of serpents! Grand Duke, help me hold her off, we must retreat!"

Vol'jin turned to another Shadow Hunter: " Rokhan! We'll cover the rear! The rest of you, take the wounded and get out of there!"

Rokhan?

Upon hearing this name, Jiang Jie's heart stirred.

Rokhan is probably the most famous Shadow Hunter besides Vol'jin. Anyone who has played the Warcraft campaign should know this name. He once formed a small team with Rexxar and Old Chen, and their strength was considerable.

To my surprise, it was him.

He's here too. What exactly does Vol'jin want?

Wandering the muddy waters of the Gurubashi Empire?

Jiang Jie had no time to think. He kept shooting arrows, not only restraining the priestess of Hethiss, but also focusing on the Atal'ai Troll blocking the gate. He quickly cleared an escape route.

The Troll that Vol'jin brought were all elite-level, at least equivalent to mid-tier rogues or mid-tier hunters. Although almost all of them were wounded and seriously injured, they still managed to hold off the Atal'ai Troll ' attack and retreated to the gate.

Zul'Gurub has a door, but only a door frame; the door itself is long gone.

Vol'jin and Rokhan blocked the gate to buy time for their companions.

One after another, venomous snakes rushed over, making Jiang Jie feel a chill. He then looked at the priestess in the distance, feeling displeased.

"The priestess of Hethiss? My serpent form is about to fall upon your head!"

Jiang Jie snorted coldly, suddenly put away the orange bow, and took out the divine sword.

He leaped thirty meters into the air, then the Night Blade like lightning to the priestess, his divine sword piercing her heart!

Immediately afterwards, a phoenix cry was heard, and intense Shadowflame erupted from the priestess's body, transforming into a small phoenix that soared into the sky and slowly dissipated. The priestess let out a mournful cry and collapsed gracefully.

" The Serpent's Whisper! He killed ' The Serpent's Whisper ' Mauri! He killed our poison maker!"

"Kill him! Sacrifice his soul to Hethiss!"

"Kill them!"

With a series of roars, dozens of Atal'ai Troll charged forward. Jiang Jie sneered, feeling uncomfortable all over, as if something in the shadows was watching him, and there was more than one!

Without a doubt, they are Loa, several Loa!

Jiang Jie bent his legs, pushed off with all his might, and soared twenty meters into the sky. Then, a pair of Chi wings sprouted from his ribs, and in an instant, he flew to the gate of Zul'Gurub. He took out the orange bow again, and magic arrows rained down. With one man and one bow, he sealed off the gate, and no Troll could get through!

Vol'jin and Rokhan quickly seized the opportunity to retreat into the jungle. Jiang Jie continued to seal the gate, holding it for a full five minutes, until several more Atal'ai Troll approached from afar. Only when the discomfort of being targeted by venomous snakes grew stronger did they finally flap their wings and catch up with Vol'jin.

Vol'jin was clearly not new to Stranglethorn Vale; he had actually set up camp at a Troll temple called " Bambala " not far away.

The camp wasn't hidden and was very close to Zul'Gurub, but the Atal'ai Troll were clearly wary, avoiding any path through the woods and not giving chase.
