Chapter 118 Night in the Mountain Village (1)(1/2)

The level of the troll is about 15~20. You need to be careful of the troll's brute force. My regeneration ability needs to be broken with strong acid and fire.

This is more troublesome for a team of pure martial artists. They need to hold a weapon in one hand and a torch in the other. When cutting a knife, they have to burn the wound with flame to prevent it from regenerating itself.

But for a team with four spellcasters, this is not a problem at all. In addition, Pei Renli also added a few bottles of blazing fire glue and strong acid flat bottles. The quantity is not large, but it is definitely enough.

Pei Renli's finger drew a circle on the map near the mountains to the north of Hexi Village:

"According to the intelligence, trolls are wandering around here. We will set out before noon tomorrow to search for the troll's lair."

Trolls are nocturnal monsters. Although they are not afraid of sunlight, they do not find it very comfortable. They usually hide in cool caves and sleep during the day, so searching for troll lairs before noon is as good as sneaking there in the middle of the night.

It's almost like hitting a sap.

"But we don't have scouts, so it might take a lot of time... By the way, why didn't you call a rogue?"

Azuhan shrugged:

"We looked for them, but they all went on missions."

I remember Alton mentioned that he was going on a mission. He hadn't seen Cora in the past few days, so he probably was called away.

"Since there is no detective role, I will use detection magic to search the sky tomorrow. You should also pay more attention and be sure not to wake up the troll."

With the ability of four people, it is not a problem to deal with two or three trolls. You can try to deal with four or five trolls, but if there are more, it will be a problem.

Trolls are gregarious creatures. They rarely stay alone. Even when they go hunting, they usually go out in groups of at least two. There are probably about 10 trolls living in a troll lair.

If you wake them all up at once, it's best for everyone to retreat first.

"Don't worry, there's no need to be afraid even if there are a lot of trolls."

Vondar hurriedly took out a very strange-looking battle ax from his backpack and showed off proudly.

The blade of the tomahawk is long and large, completely different from the usual tomahawk hand axe. Although this kind of weapon is surprisingly powerful when swung, it looks like it is easy to lose balance.

This is a dwarf heavy axe, similar to the elven curved blade, and is a weapon specially made for a certain race.

If a human uses a dwarf heavy axe, no matter how awkward it is, he may smash his own foot if he is not careful. It is designed from the beginning to the end based on the stature and habits of dwarves.

However, in addition to the strange shape of the ax, Pei Renli also saw a layer of something shiny on the surface of the ax under the illumination of an oil lamp. After identifying it for a while, he said:

"Han Iron? Did you use all the cold iron you got underground?"

"Originally I just wanted to use a new weapon that was handy, but I didn't expect it was just right."

Von Dal gave out a simple and honest smile, looking very proud.

Cold iron can penetrate the damage reduction ability of several specific creatures, and it is also one of the few metals that can destroy the self-regeneration ability. It is just right for dealing with trolls.

Perrenli deliberately waited for Feng Daer to finish showing off before saying:

"No matter how many advantages there are, it's better to be careful. Besides, I remember that there should be no trolls around here."

He pointed at a mountain range far away from Hexi Village with his finger:

"The closest place to here where trolls appear is the Troll Mountains. They shouldn't run so far, right?"

Trolls usually don't leave their habitat, let alone if the straight-line distance exceeds five hundred miles, and they have to cross mountains and ridges in the middle.

Speaking of this, Eve interrupted and said:

"It's unclear why the troll came here, but according to my investigation, Hexi Village also has some problems."

"what is the problem?"

"An adventurer from the Eastern Kingdom once disappeared while passing through here. At that time, the tyrannical Demon King existed."

"Never found it?"

Eve nodded:

"The villagers unanimously said that the missing adventurers left on their own, but later investigators found their luggage in the hut where the adventurers temporarily lived, but no trace of them was ever found."

These words made the other three people feel a little creepy. After all, they were also adventurers. When adventurers disappeared from the world, they naturally felt the same way.

"Has this happened many times?"

"No, it was only once. After that, there were adventurers staying here, but there was nothing strange about them. So it is still impossible to know what happened to the missing adventurers, or whether they were forced to disappear because of what they discovered.

.”

Pointing to the window, Eve said again:

"I don't know if you have noticed it, but I always feel that there is a strange power entrenched in this place."

He raised his eyes to look at Fondar, who simply spread his hands to show that he didn't feel anything, while Azuhan said:

"I don't feel anything. If I'm worried, I can ask the surrounding trees tomorrow."

Druids can talk to animals and even plants, so they can get a lot of information that ordinary people can't.

Perrenli wanted to ask Ravna, who was hiding in the shadow, if she felt anything, but there was no chance for everyone in front of them.

So he had no choice but to continue asking Eve:

"Is there any evidence?"

"No, it's just a simple feeling."

"Okay, be careful and don't have any unnecessary curiosity. Let's stay one night after dealing with the trolls tomorrow, and head back the day after tomorrow."

The journey is too far. If we go back tomorrow after dealing with the trolls, we will definitely sleep in the wild, so we can only stay one more night.

By the way, the captain assigned by the teacher this time was actually Eve, but she didn't want to do the captain's job, so she asked Pei Renli to do it and acted like a secretary.

Eve is similar to Kaya in that they don't like communicating with strangers. The difference is that Kaya is avoided by everyone, while Eve deliberately avoids everyone.

Perhaps with this in mind, the teacher wanted to train Eve and deliberately made her the captain, but it had little effect.

After clapping their hands to bring everyone back to their senses, Pei Renli concluded:

"Anyway, this is the plan. Are there any problems?"

At this time, Elysee, who had been standing in the corner, pretending to be transparent, raised her hand:

"What a coincidence. You guys are also going to deal with the trolls. Can you count me in tomorrow?"

Everyone: "..."

Who do you think we are meeting here for?

Pei Renli felt that if the people in the Sword of Salvation were all fools like Elise, it would probably not be a serious problem...

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The hut where everyone stayed temporarily must have been unoccupied for a long time. There was only a straw bed, and the straw in it was rotten. There were probably more bugs, especially fleas, than the straw.

Fortunately, the villagers gave them a few blankets, and they folded their cloaks to use as pillows, then put the blankets underneath and slept with their clothes on.

The conditions were not great, but they were okay. At least they were much more comfortable than being in the wild with the sky and quilt and the ground as a bed.

As for Ravna, Perrenli didn't need to worry about it at all. I heard that she was as comfortable hiding in the shadows as she was at home.

Perrenli took out homemade insect repellent and spread it around, and deliberately placed magic alarms near the doors and windows. After all, Eve said there was something weird in this village, so it was better to be careful.

Then everyone chose a place of their choice to lie down, blew out the oil lamps, and the hut suddenly fell into darkness.

The uncle who drove them here lived in the house of a villager he knew well, so there were only five of them on the floor in the house.

For adventurers, the ability to fall asleep quickly anywhere is very important. With today's transportation level, camping in the wild is unavoidable as long as you go to a slightly farther place, and being unable to sleep peacefully is not good for you.

It has a great impact on your physical strength and energy the next day.

At this point, Von Dahl is awesome.

Before going to bed, he took out the flat wine flask he had prepared in advance, took two sips of the strong wine that smelled particularly harsh to his nose, and then fell asleep, his snoring immediately starting.

Azuhan is not bad either. Druids themselves don't care about the living environment. Some radical druids don't even enjoy the fruits of any civilization. They live a more exaggerated life than savages, even in muddy ponds where wild boars wallow.

Can lie down and fall asleep.

Although Azuhan was not that exaggerated, the conditions were much better than in the wild. It didn't take long before he fell into a deep sleep and started a snoring duet with Von Dahl.

But Pei Renli really couldn't fall asleep.

One of his strengths is that he doesn't recognize beds. He didn't feel uncomfortable at all when he first entered the school. He felt very comfortable on the first night in the dormitory.

One reason why I can't sleep is that it's too early. It's only around eight o'clock in the evening. Pei Renli usually doesn't go to bed until about 11 o'clock because he needs to have a liver disease.

In addition, the wooden floor may be too hard, and a layer of blankets is not enough to relieve the pain. After lying down for a while, Pei Renli felt that his waist was sore that it was about to break, and he had to turn sideways and change his position.

And when he turned around, he happened to see Eve, who was also asleep, facing him, her beautiful blue eyes shining with an intoxicating light under the moonlight.

This made Pei Renli deeply realize that this girl who usually had no expression and seldom communicated with other people was actually a beautiful girl.

Lowering his voice, Pei Renli said:

"Can't you sleep either?"

"It's not my time to rest yet."

Perrenli was having a hard time all day long, and Eve was not actually any more relaxed than him. They were the only two guys in the school who were buried in books all day long.

"Then why are you looking at me?"
