Thinking about Matthew's plan, Yaya couldn't help but chuckle:
"But they would never expect that so many surprises are waiting for them ahead."
As they conversed, they quickly reached the agreed-upon location.
Beelzebub and others, who had teleported ahead using a magic array, gathered around, looking at Lord Yaya and Lord Matthew with reverence.
Matthew rubbed his forehead, pointed at the fast-moving trolls behind, and said calmly:
"Marching at midnight is a military taboo!"
"Since they look down on us so much, let's give them a harsh lesson!"
Beelzebub pounded his chest heavily and joined the others in shouting excitedly:
"We'll complete the mission!"
Yaya and Matthew closed their eyes, their consciousness returning to Bay Town.
Exhausted, Yaya forced herself to eat most of the food on the table before falling asleep happily.
Matthew had more to do, replenishing food while also helping Mountain complete the automated production line for "Vitality Potion."
Due to the lack of energy sources, they had to consume thousands of gold coins' worth of energy crystals daily.
However, for a production line that could generate 25,000 gold coins of profit per day,
this was undoubtedly a very worthwhile investment!
More importantly, Mountain, now freed up, had started learning to craft higher-tier enchanted weapons and equipment under Matthew's direction.
The strongest "toolman" would soon undergo another upgrade and enhancement!
Let's give some applause to the ever-willing Mountain!
Matthew also briefed Butler Ralph about the situation on the front line.
"Prepare to bring in more adventurers."
"Have them disperse the troll forces under the castle."
"Considering the lack of mid-to-high-level combat power, issue an urgent mission to the professionals at Murloc Castle."
"Catching more trolls is worth a few extra gold coins."
Seeing the territory's income rising steadily in the past two days, Butler Ralph nodded approvingly and reported on the collection and transportation of battle supplies:
"Fifty thousand heavy crossbow bolts have been teleported and positioned; a thousand bottles of paralysis potion are on the way."
"The only issue is with the scrolls; Miss 343 is currently too busy."
343...
After some back and forth, Matthew and Butler Ralph finally discovered that the supplier who had been providing high-quality spell scrolls to Adam Smith was none other than Tower Spirit-343.
She held most of the permissions of a high-level mage tower; making low and mid-tier spell scrolls was no problem.
With enough resources and technology, they could even create legendary-grade spell scrolls!
Of course, doing so came at a significant cost!
"Scrolls..."
Matthew pondered for a moment, recalling the rare yet memorable actions of the troll priests, and specifically instructed:
"Bring those two big ones along!"
Without hesitation, Butler Ralph turned to make the arrangements.
Matthew took a deep breath, set an alarm, and entered a meditation state to rest.
North of the Troll Castle.
The marching troll army began encountering troubles again!
Whoosh!
Crackle!
The raging flames burned fiercely.
In the cleared firebreak, a nearly ten-kilometer-long fire dragon was freely displaying its light and heat.
The fearless trolls were only afraid of flames and strong acids.
Even if the troll priests ordered the "fearless" trolls to charge through,
the thick alchemical fire oil on the ground would still roast them into charcoal.
The red flames illuminated the trolls' angry and fearful faces.
Gritting their teeth and glaring at the arrogant figure behind the flames, the troll priest clutched his staff tightly and commanded viciously:
"Detour! Chase them!"
"Hurry!!!"
