Chapter 239: Thunderous Strike
A faint stench drifted on the wind.
The previously bored troll soldiers immediately widened their eyes, their elongated noses twitching as they took a couple of sniffs, then suddenly shouted excitedly:
"Something's up, I smell those filthy Rotten-Tooth trolls!"
The other nearby trolls instantly perked up. They quickly gathered around, sniffing the air, and exchanged knowing glances.
No doubt about it!
That was definitely the stench of the Rotten-Tooth trolls!
"There are Rotten-Tooth trolls climbing up. This is great news!"
"Yeah, finally, something to break the boredom of guard duty."
"Heh, let's ask the sentries. If there are enough of them, maybe we can all join in!"
"It's been a while since we've had some 'meat'..."
"Don't rush to eat; we should have some fun first!"
"That's true..."
"..."
The trolls' chatter quickly reached the tall watchtower of the castle.
The equally bored sentries immediately perked up upon hearing the news.
Although they couldn't leave their posts, even just watching would be a welcome distraction.
Soon, one of the sharp-eyed troll sentries spotted the "enemy."
Its pupils narrowed, drool began dripping from its mouth, but it reluctantly bit down and shouted to those below:
"There are over 100 humans two kilometers north, dragging about a dozen Rotten-Tooth trolls northwards!"
"If you want to catch them, you'd better hurry, or they'll escape into the arms of those idiots!"
"And remember, leave a good leg for me, or you'll regret it next time!"
Upon hearing this, the trolls on the walls became excited.
Finally, something to do!
Two troll centurions exchanged glances, greed and excitement evident in their eyes.
"A hundred humans won't be enough for all of us!"
"Don't be stupid, why share with the others?"
