A Fight to the Death

The Forest Troll army had surrounded the entire Highborne force, and the Forest Troll were preparing to wipe out all the Highborne in one fell swoop.

The Highborne were unaware that they had fallen into an encirclement of Forest Troll.

The common people of the Highborne were also immersed in the joy of their impending arrival in their new home.

Suddenly, a tremor came from the forest.

The tremors in the forest attracted the attention of all the Highborne.

"Get your weapons out!" Daren Theron shouted.

The surrounding Highborne soldiers revealed their weapons, ready to deal with any danger that might emerge from the forest.

The vibrations grew louder, and their figures gradually became visible.

"What is that?" a Highborne soldier asked.

"Was it some kind of wild animal migration?" another asked.

Finally, the culprit that had caused the vibrations revealed itself.

"It's Forest Troll cavalry! Defend!" Daren Theron roared.

Just then, the battle cries of Forest Troll rang out from behind and to the left of the Highborne troops.

"Kill all these Highborne! For the sake of the Forest Troll!" Kaostin led his Forest Troll army out of the forest to the left of the Highborne.

"Let these Highborne quell the power of us Forest Troll!" Bandersson commanded the main forces of the three clans he led to launch an attack.

"Damn it, we're surrounded," said a Highborne civilian holding his child.

His child was trembling with fear, but his eyes revealed resentment towards the Forest Troll.

"Don't be afraid! Lord Dath'Remar and we will protect you." A Highborne Warrior was trying her best to comfort the Highborne civilians.

"Lord Dath'Remar will kill all the invading Forest Troll," said a Highborne commoner.

"But there are too many of them!" The Highborne saw many Forest Troll approaching the Highborne's defensive line.

"Hold the line! Hold them off!" The squad leaders of the Highborne were directing their men to hold the line and block the Forest Troll ' attack.

"The Forest Troll have attacked us."

"Now we have no choice but to fight with all our might," Dath'Remar said coldly.

"I'll take care of dealing with the Forest Troll on your front lines." Snyder volunteered to take on a portion of the Forest Troll.

After saying that, he led most of the Hand of the Bright Moon to the front lines, while a portion was ordered by Snyder to "protect" Dath'Remar's safety.

"Daren Theron, you are in charge of dealing with the Forest Troll attacking from the rear," Dath'Remar commanded.

Upon receiving the order, Daren Theron led his personal guards to the rear battlefield.

He planned to deal with the central battlefield himself, since the vast majority of civilians were there.

This is also where he's most likely to cause trouble.

The Forest Troll had already launched their attack when Dath'Remar gave the order.

The Amani Clan's war bear cavalry began charging in droves against the Highborne's vanguard.

The roars of the war bears and the battle cries of the Troll echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

"Mage troops! Raise magical shields to block the charge of these beasts!" the Highborne vanguard captain commanded.

Upon receiving the order, the mage troops began casting spells, and a sturdy magical shield appeared on the battlefield in front of the Highborne.

The sudden appearance of the magical shield made it impossible for the Amani Clan's war bear cavalry, who had already begun their Charge, to stop. They could only hope that the magical shield wasn't strong enough and that the war bears beneath them were ferocious.

They accelerated the war bears beneath them so that they could generate greater impact force when they charged later.

Their war bears are trained from a young age by their knights and are absolutely obedient to their commands.

The fastest war bear cavalryman was already about to crash into the magic shield.

"Thump." The Amani Clan's war bear slammed heavily into the magic shield.

The powerful impact killed the war bear cavalryman instantly.

Moreover, their blood was all splattered on the magic shield, making it extremely gruesome.

The war bear cavalry behind him also tried to dodge, but it was too late.

Their current pace and the ideals instilled in them since childhood have made it impossible for them to back down.

The fearless War Bear cavalry at the front bought their comrades behind them a chance.

The vanguard of the War Bear Cavalry successfully breached the magic shield, creating a crack. As the crack widened, the magic shield eventually gave way, and a large number of the Amani Clan War Bear Cavalry successfully broke into the Highborne ' shield.

"Damn it, mages, quickly raise another magical shield, or our casualties will be huge when they charge in!" the Highborne vanguard captain ordered.

"We can no longer expend so much magical energy to erect such a large magical shield."

"Our magical energy is almost depleted, and most of our magic crystals were lost in the raid by the Forest Troll," said the mage captain of the Highborne vanguard.

At this moment, neither he nor the Highborne mages under his command looked well; they clearly had lost too much magical energy.

"Damn it, archers, prepare to fire. Use arrows to reduce their numbers first," the Highborne vanguard captain ordered.

"The rest of the Warrior, get your weapons ready and charge with me. Set up the battle line far away from here," said the captain of the Highborne vanguard, adjusting his armor and weapons.

A volley of arrows was unleashed, turning some Forest Troll trolls into pincushions, but a large portion of the Amani Clan's war bear cavalry charged forward.

As the Amani Clan's war bear cavalry drew ever closer, even the Highborne Warrior felt a sense of retreat.

But with the War Bear cavalry getting closer and closer, they couldn't think too much about it.

The captain of the Highborne vanguard charged out first, and his Warrior, seeing their general begin the Charge, followed suit.

But here, one plus one is greater than two. The War Bear and the Troll, who grew up together from childhood, must add up to more than two.

This put the Highborne Warrior in a very dangerous situation; without the help of mages, their situation was extremely perilous.

A single War Bear cavalryman often requires more than two Highborne Warrior to hold off or even kill.

The Highborne soldiers' lines were constantly retreating, and their situation was extremely precarious.

Just then, Snyder and his Hand of the Bright Moon joined the battle.

The Hand of the Bright Moon, clad in silver-white armor, quickly helped the Highborne Warrior stop their decline.

Snyder went even further, casting an earth elemental spell to forcibly separate the two forces.
