Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 383: Chapter 371, Advance Attack l

Clank!!

The iron hook scraped across the ground, creating a disturbing noise.

Everyone in the room turned ghostly pale in an instant.

Now that the troll had seen them in full armor…

It would undoubtedly kill them on the spot.

Peering through a gap, Xu Yang watched as the one-eyed troll approached bit by bit, his face terribly pale.

The attack on Bloodthroat was supposed to happen the day after tomorrow.

The troll shouldn’t have made a move on them today.

What on earth had happened?

But now was not the time to consider these matters. He drew his iron sword from his waist.

On the other side of the tent, a hole was cut open.

He spoke in a low voice, “You all go first. If he finds us, we fight to kill him.”

While speaking, he began to remove the armor he had just put on.

“Oh, oh!” the farmers responded, nodding subconsciously.

The peasants’ Loyalty wasn’t so low that they would disregard orders from Xu Yang, even in the face of danger.

“Go, quick.” Xu Yang urged again.

The peasants crawled on the ground, one by one crawling out through the slit they had made.

The sound of the dragging chains grew louder and closer.

The one-eyed troll had reached the tent and was about to pull the tent flap open.

Xu Yang scrambled out hastily.

Before the one-eyed troll could speak, Xu Yang preempted him, “What’s up, do you need something?”

His solitary eye fixated on Xu Yang, he rasped, “Why is it you? What are you doing here?”

To a troll…

All humans look rather similar, virtually indistinguishable.

But Xu Yang’s distinct black hair and black pupils were recognizable to him.

In previous meetings, Bagath had invited Xu Yang to attend and collect resources for the army.

“Clan Leader Bagath asked me to tidy up the odds and ends here. Did he send you to help me?” Xu Yang asked curiously, all while blocking the entrance to the tent.

“Where are the others?” the one-eyed troll continued to ask, his single eye sweeping around.

“What others? Are you here to find someone?”

“Where are the other humans? How come there are no others around?” inquired the one-eyed troll, swallowing hard.

Bagath held Xu Yang in high regard.

The troll didn’t want to risk eating him. He wanted to find other humans to satisfy his midnight snack cravings.

“Oh, I sent the others to help build equipment at the camp. Do you need help? I can arrange for some people to help later.” Xu Yang dusted off his clothes casually.

The one-eyed troll surveyed the silent surroundings, feeling that something was amiss.

He bent down, his giant eye directed right at Xu Yang.

Then, he sniffed curiously and asked, “What’s that smell coming from the tent? It’s so fragrant. What are you hiding?”

“Nothing at all, maybe you’ve misjudged the smell.” Xu Yang frowned.

“Damn reptile, you’ve hoarded food.” The troll roared in fury, slapping Xu Yang on the body and flinging him two meters away.

Immediately, he pulled open the tent flap and crawled in.

Xu Yang pushed himself up, clutching his left arm with a pained expression.

That slap had instantly caused a piercing pain in his arm, possibly breaking his bones.

Damn it.

Why was he so unlucky? It seemed a fine plan.

Only for this brute to show up out of nowhere.

Moreover, he had no way out now. Watching the troll crawl into the tent, he clenched his teeth against the pain.

And followed him in.

The tent was empty.

Xu Yang glanced at the cut in the tent, under the moonlight, he barely made out some shadowy figures hiding.

“This is a storage tent for miscellaneous items. There’s no food here.” Xu Yang said softly.

Even after being hit, he didn’t dare rebuke the troll.

Even though he was often by Bagath’s side, it didn’t mean he was of higher status than the troll.

“Something’s not right…, I did smell something.” Like a hound following a trail, the one-eyed troll kept sniffing its surroundings.

One-eyed trolls were a subgroup of trolls.

He had less perception, his eyesight was poor, and his sensitivity was diminished.

But the troll in front of him seemed to have a keen sense of smell. He continued to claim that he smelled food.

It might be the smell of roasted bread.

The one-eyed troll kept sniffing, his gaze straying towards the slit in the side of the tent.

“Hehe! So it’s here. Let’s see what you miserable creatures are up to.” The one- eyed troll sneered as he bent down and stuck his head out of the hole in the tent.

As soon as his head was out…

He saw a human standing on a stacked pile of wood.

With a large rock in his arms, he leaped down, aiming for the troll’s head.

“You dare…”

Thud!!

A muffled noise was heard as the rock landed squarely on the troll’s head.

The rock shattered, and the troll’s lone eye rolled back into his head before he fainted.

“He’s unconscious, sir. We should leave now,” a farmer suggested.

Xu Yang, clutching his injured arm, emerged from the tent and shook his head. “Trolls recover very quickly. If he wakes up before we get away, we’re doomed. We have to kill him.” A fierce light flashed in Xu Yang’s eyes.

“Kill? Kill a troll?”

“Hurry, grab that iron hook and chain and bind him up. Stuff the iron ball from the warehouse into his mouth, so he can’t scream!” Xu Yang swiftly gave the commands.

Everyone acted rapidly, binding the unconscious one-eyed troll and gagging him.

Xu Yang took a deep breath and plunged his sword into the troll’s neck.

The pain jolted the unconscious troll awake instantaneously.

His eyes were filled with shock and rage as he began to struggle violently.
