Seeing Angela's growing leadership style, Feli looked at her with admiration, stroking her crossbow as other thoughts surfaced:
"Maybe I can work hard and learn too..."
Hearing this, the others nodded repeatedly. They had executed this operation entirely without their lord's help.
Their success significantly boosted their morale and confidence.
They felt more assured about the upcoming battles.
The accumulation of success and experience allowed them to grasp the details of combat more precisely.
After returning to their resting spot, they rested for half a day.
The Bay Territory soldiers rose again.
As Beelzebub told everyone:
"They want to rest during the day and march at night?"
"Then we'll make sure they can't even rest during the day; we'll keep causing them trouble!"
And under these circumstances,
various minor skirmishes and long-range attacks
kept the troll camp in a noisy uproar repeatedly.
The trolls didn't have earplugs, and even if they did, the rumbling vibrations on the ground prevented them from resting peacefully.
Beelzebub enthusiastically pounded the drums, his expression full of mischief.
Elio, hiding among the treetops, kept a close watch on the troll camp's movements.
Whenever a troll hunting team was about to set out, they would quickly alert the harassing soldiers.
Ensuring enough distance for a proper response.
Although the trolls wanted to capture and torture them, they failed every time.
Over time,
seeing that they lacked sufficiently damaging long-range weapons and tactics, the trolls simply ignored them.
Those who needed to sleep, slept; those who needed to rest, rested.
As for whether these trolls dreamed of their misfortunes over the past two days, no one knew.
Even though the results weren't as impactful as before, the Bay Territory soldiers diligently carried out every setup.
If they could slightly reduce the trolls' rest effectiveness, their goal would be achieved!
The sun slanted westward, and the day passed quietly.
The trolls, who had barely rested, got up again.
To boost the trolls' morale, the priests ordered them to eat heartily.
Most of the extra food prepared in the morning was consumed.
Having suffered a significant loss before, the troll priests didn't plan to split their forces this time.
They had three thousand hunting trolls gather together to continue capturing prey.
The priests' thought was simple: even bringing some prey along would be better than having no food when they got hungry.
Their thinking was still naive!
The morning's abundant hunting grounds were now empty, just like before.
After wandering for over an hour, the hunting team barely caught enough for a few bites.
The troll priests, upon receiving this news, couldn't help but regret their decisions.
If only they had caught more prey in the morning.
If only they hadn't ordered everyone to eat so much just now...
But unfortunately, there's no cure for regret!
With no other choice, the trolls watched as the crimson moon rose in the sky and resumed their journey.
Then, the well-rested Bay Territory soldiers began tormenting them again!
The Bay Territory soldiers had no qualms about dealing with these trolls.
They were eager, brainstorming and suggesting various strategies, some of which were surprisingly effective.
Even if they didn't cause major trouble for the troll army, they inflicted scattered casualties and drained the trolls' stamina and morale.
Those who contributed ideas would also receive extra rewards and spoils.
