The First War

The perspective shifts to the Highborne.

The unusual activity in the jungle had already alerted the Highborne.

The Highborne guards also drew their weapons and sent someone to report to Dath'Remar.

"Lord Dath'Remar, large flocks of birds in the jungle have been startled and taken flight; it seems a large number of animals are migrating."

"That's not an animal, it's Troll," Dath'Remar said, without stopping his work.

Dath'Remar donned the red armor and wielded the Flamestrike.

"Soldiers, now assemble your ranks and prepare to properly entertain our guests."

Dath'Remar spoke to the guard who entered, and then left.

The Hand of the Bright Moon, under Snyder's command, has begun operations at the elven camp.

The Hand of the Bright Moon's silver armor gleamed in the sunlight, and Snyder, fully dressed, stood before the troops.

After reorganizing the troops, Snyder led the Hand of the Bright Moon to the edge of the Highborne camp.

After reorganizing his troops, Dath'Remar led the Highborne forces there.

At the same time, he ordered his lieutenant to have all the Highborne pack their belongings, so that they could begin their migration once the Forest Troll ' attack was repelled.

Kaostin gave orders to his Shadow Hunter.

"I'll lead the attack on the elves to draw their attention, and you guys can sneak in and sabotage their supply lines while they're in the chaos."

"Did you all understand?" Kaostin asked.

"Understood, sir," said the Shadow Hunter captain.

"Remember, don't linger in battle. After completing the mission, go find Bandersson." After saying this, Kaostin followed the troops and rushed towards the elven camp.

"Brothers, did you all hear Lord Kaostin's orders?" the Shadow Hunter captain asked.

"Understood, Captain," the other Shadow Hunter replied.

"Bring out our treasure; we'll need it to create chaos later," said the Shadow Hunter captain.

The other Shadow Hunter laughed.

The Forest Troll Shadow Hunter refers to the unstable compound that was the precursor to Bandersson's failed Chaos Potion.

This thing can't cause living things to descend into chaos; it can only keep things burning.

This was practically a tool for creating chaos, so Bandersson didn't destroy it but instead improved it, making it even more flammable and explosive.

Before this operation, Bandersson specifically asked Kaostin to bring these treasures to assist with the mission.

While the Shadow Hunter was speaking, Kaostin's forces had already engaged the Highborne guard.

The first Forest Troll Warrior to enter attack range drew his throwing axe from his waist and hurled it at the nearest elven Warrior.

The flying axe made a "whoosh" sound as it flew, its friction against the air producing a distinct noise.

"Thud!" The Forest Troll's throwing axe pierced the neck of an unfortunate soul.

The unlucky fellow fell to the ground with a thud. "Haha! First kill is mine!" the Troll who threw the axe laughed.

With a "whoosh," a magic arrow shot towards the smug Forest Troll.

The magic arrow was swift and accurate, heading straight for the Forest Troll's head.

The magic arrow struck the Troll, Troll it to a tree.

The Highborne cheered at the sight, and Daren Theron lowered his bow and gripped his longsword.

"We can celebrate once we get to our new home; let's kill these beasts first!"

Daren Theron brandished his longsword and spoke, then commanded the existing Highborne soldiers to form a defensive line.

Forest Troll will not back down because of the death of their brethren; on the contrary, the bloodshed will only fuel their ferocity.

"Amani Warrior, destroy them!" Kaostin commanded the Troll army to begin their assault on the elf defenses.

The Amani forces crashed directly into the elven defenses, with Troll axe throwers inflicting heavy casualties on the Highborne at close range.

The Highborne were not intimidated by the Forest Troll. The Warrior in the front row withstood the pressure, while the elven mages in the back row began to cast spells to teach the Troll a lesson.

The Forest Troll and the Highborne clashed.

While the two sides were exchanging fire, the Shadow Hunter slipped into the shadows and infiltrated the Highborne camp.

"Next, we'll split up. Remember our mission." With that, the Shadow Hunter captain vanished into the shadows and left.

Other Shadow Hunter also vanished into the shadows to search for their quest targets within the Highborne camp.

In the Highborne camp, Dath'Remar's lieutenant is directing the civilians and the army.

"All soldiers, take up your weapons! Except for the central army protecting the civilians, all other soldiers, line up and await Lord Dath'Remar's orders."

"All civilians, do not panic! Lord Dath'Remar will protect you!"

Dath'Remar's lieutenant was doing his best to maintain order and prevent the situation from collapsing.

The civilians were initially panicked, but their fear gradually subsided after hearing the name Dath'Remar.

Just when Dath'Remar's adjutant thought he had calmed the crowd down...

Explosions and fires broke out at various supply storage areas throughout the camp.

The explosions and flames made the civilians' hearts, which had just begun to calm down, start pounding again.

"Everyone, follow my orders!"

Dath'Remar arrived with his personal guard. He originally intended to lead his troops directly to the battlefield, but upon reflection, he decided that it would be better to bring the most elite troops of the Highborne to the battlefield at this time.

If the Troll are badly hurt, it would be disadvantageous for them to sit idly by and watch the Highborne through.

He's been discovered by Snyder's gang now, and if he delays any longer, Snyder will definitely kill him.

Therefore, he must incite hatred between elves and Troll; more blood debts are to his advantage.

"It's Lord Dath'Remar! Lord Dath'Remar has arrived." Dath'Remar's arrival was like a beacon illuminating their otherwise dark lives.

"Everyone, don't panic. Our soldiers will protect you." Dath'Remar took over command from his adjutant and began to reassure the crowd.

Kaostin's Troll army did not linger in battle; when he saw Snyder leading the Hand of the Bright Moon to provide reinforcements, he ordered a retreat.

Kaostin cleaved through the Highborne Warrior he was facing with a single sword strike and retreated first.

After seeing their general withdraw from the battlefield, the other Forest Troll Warrior also drove back the Highborne soldiers they had been facing and ran into the forest.

The Forest Troll ' retreat appeared chaotic, but it actually concealed a hidden strategy.

The Highborne saw the Forest Troll begin to retreat and wanted to pursue them, but their general, Alan Theron, stopped them.

"Our current task is to heal the wounded, allow them to rest, and prepare for the Troll ' next attack."
