Chapter 42 - The storm is coming
…………
Ranger captain Elsia had been waiting in the Shadow Trap Guard Battalion for a long time. At the order of Sylvanas, she met with the representatives of the alliance here. She said that this was the regent.
But the agreed time had passed long ago, and the other person still could not see him.
The panda monks in the camp were quietly and didn't make any noise when they walked. Even when Elsia came here, she just greeted them briefly and never said a word again. So the atmosphere seemed a little solemn.
Not long after, a sharp sound of the horned eagle beast interrupted the quiet atmosphere. The monks were very sensitive. After hearing the unusual movement, they all picked up weapons, and some had already pointed their crossbows at the sky.
The man riding the horned eagle landed and said in the loudest and most pleasant voice: "Relax, Panda friends, I'm not a mantis."
The person who came was also an elf, but Elsia's face turned pale when she saw her.
"You..." She pointed at Sylvanas with wide eyes, unable to say a complete sentence.
The Ranger General of the Silver Covenant had already changed into his clothes and shook his hair on his front shoulders back with a cool move.
"I am Sylvanas now, captain. There is no need to be so surprised."
"Does Lord Rothema know?" Elsia asked worriedly. Now only Rothema is still in the Kasamlang jungle. If Hellscream finds that Aurelia, who Sylvanas pretends to be missing, he will definitely ask what happened to Rothema.
"Of course he doesn't know, I ran out."
"How can this work..."
Sylvanas smiled and said, "Lorthema was my soldier, and I believe he can deal with emergencies and don't worry about him." She looked around again, "Where is your mount? We have to set off to Thunder Island to meet with our respective troops."
"You are the representative of the alliance?" Elsia was shocked again.
"Or who else?" Sylvanas seemed to be teasing a little girl. "I've changed into my own clothes."
Elsia looked at Sylvanas angrily. Although they belonged to different camps and their ranks and status were very different, Elsia did not like to be fooled. "I doubt that you did not have the consent of the Regent. You made your own decision, right?"
"Note your tone of speaking, little dear. Even if I am not from the tribe, you should respect my seniority." Sylvanas raised his tone slightly. "What's more, I'm not Aurelia's soldier. I promised to help her but I'll get paid."
"I apologize for my misconduct, but your actions are likely to put my fellow countrymen in the Kasamlang jungle in danger." Elsia felt that she should remind Rothema no matter what.
Sylvanas covered her mouth and laughed, making Elsia wonder why she was so excited.
"Just kidding, of course I warned Lothama."
Captain Ranger didn't know how to reply for a while, so he could only give General Ranger of the Silver Covenant a dissatisfied and helpless expression. She was worried for a long time.
"Is there any problem now?"
"It's gone."
"Very good, it's time for us to leave. Exchange our respective intelligence on the way."
Elsia blew a whistle and a dragon eagle flew over. Two female elves quickly took off and flew towards their destination.
"Ten thousand years and two thousand years ago, Thor, the 'King of Thunder', established the ancient Mogu Empire that lasted for thousands of years. He unified the Mogu tribe and conquered other panda races." Elsia began to share the news from her investigation. "I heard that he had powerful power and built a magnificent fortress for himself, and we should be able to see it soon..."
"I've seen it." Sylvanas pointed at the sea below.
Elsia looked down and saw six or seven ships under the banner of skeletons approaching Thunder Island.
"Are they the Forgotten? They are here too?" Elsia was shocked, but did not notice the smile on Sylvanas's face.
...
When the ship arrived at the island of the King of Rail, Aurelia happened to stand at the bow of the ship, holding a telescope to watch from afar. The facilities at the port looked newer than everything on that island, and the camp beside it clearly had the troll construction style.
Looking left, the troll laborers seemed to be unloading gunpowder and other supplies from the cabin. Not to mention how large the Zandala Troll's fleet is, as far as a ship is concerned, the draft is several times that of the Xindolei ship, and the supplies they carry are enough to satisfy an army for a long time.
There are some things worth noting.
The Regent saw many animals he had never really seen before: the genus cermetres, the pterodactyl, and the deafening tyrannosaurus. The document records of Zandala were true, and the trolls were mastered by the technology of controlling primitive beasts.
In addition to the giant beasts, there are golems similar to Quelthalas and trolls from other tribes.
"They are well prepared." Aurelia said a cruel fact. "This is a real army of trolls."
"There are also the Mogu tribe, the Regent." Earl Leah Delin reminded. "We can only see the trolls now, but the stone pillars of the arrow towers that guide lightning on the island must not be the creation of the troll."
Aurelia nodded, and Leadlin was exactly what she was worried about. The buildings seemed to be some kind of air defense facility. Interestingly, she saw some Zandala trolls riding on pterodactyls in the sky, but were safe.
Wouldn't those beasts be struck by lightning?
The rumbling thunder sounds one after another. The dark clouds in the sky were filled with lightning. Not to mention humans, even animals did not dare to take off in such weather. Therefore, it was impossible to send the Dragon Eagle Knight to investigate, and could only rely on the reconnaissance forces deployed on the coast to provide intelligence.
"The Shadow Trap School is a little too anxious, but she left the trouble to us." Aurelia handed the telescope to a soldier, clasped her hands together, thinking about countermeasures.
Before they arrived, they received news that Zhu Talan, the head of the Shadow Sect, had already taken his monks to the Thunder God Island and began to weaken Thunder God's army. This must have attracted the attention of the Mogus and Zandala trolls. They set up barriers and blocked the Thunder God Island. While preventing others from approaching the island, they also left the Shadow Sect with no way to escape.
"To destroy their defenses." The Regent turned to Leaderin and ordered, "We must take a risk and prepare to organize an elite squad to launch a raid from the air."
