Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

Chapter 91: Troll's Bait

Lee avoided the chunk of dirt flying at him. He flashed forward and embedded his palm in the Troll's stomach. Before it could spit out blood, EsGen devoured it.

'How many left?'

[9 more jumping around.]

'That is it?'

[Other ran back to the tunnels.]

'Okay.brief me about these beings.'

[The Ground Trolls were an exceptional race. They vary from 1.70 to 4 metres in height, and their hideous faces set them apart from others, physically and mentally. Their highly effective teamwork makes them a worthy opponent to both adventurers and animals alike. To counter the traditional notion of 'less brain, more brawn', the Ground Trolls distributes the workload.

The Minor Ground Trolls are agile and nimble, but are weaker than a human in strength and sturdiness. These little ones do the scouting and exploring, with great accuracy, regardless of day or night. The extra large eyes and efficient brain acts in harmony with stealth.

The Major Ground Trolls exceed in strength and size. These giant ones are strong enough to wrestle with an adult Wool Tusker, but are tardy. They are the only damage dealers in the community. The bulging muscles paired with a blunt edge weapon are always their choice. The particularly thicker skin is their speciality.

But that does not mean that the Major Ground Trolls are brawn alone. They implement various tactics to distract or bait their prey. And their most favourite method of offense is retreat!

Running back into the tunnel acting afraid, they create a scene where the trolls are retreating in despair. It psychologically enables the other party to follow them into the tunnels, courageously. Normally, the prey entering the tunnel ever exits it.]

By the time D concluded his lecture, 5 trolls had fallen numb. Lee sprinted around to pick up his Essence farms lying on the ground. As the trolls were wiped off the Map, An's longsword and Mia's katana had severed the legs of the remaining four.

*Slash*

*Slash*

Lee walked to them and stored the trolls in EsGen. He unconsciously glanced at the face of An and saw frown and confusion. Lee took a scan of Mia and found that she was unscathed.

"What?"

Lee had to ask as An's stare was directed towards him. He couldn't find a reason as to why she is gazing intensely.

"Are you not feeling any pain?"

Lee frowned in bewilderment. Seconds later, his eyes went wide as his hands unconsciously approached his face, in a revelation.

Clotted blood trails originated from the exposed pair of holes. He touched and hissed in pain. The last one hour flashed in front of his eyes. His anger was instantly annulled by the satisfaction in his own performance.

'D, a Prime grade Healing Potion!'

A second later, the potion bottle was transferred to his hand from the Inventory. The black-green liquid went down Lee's throat with a single gulp.

*twitch*

Lee spontaneously twitched as he felt an immense tingling irritation on his face. He restrained his hands from teaching his nose, but the annoyance increased. The feeling of vexation made him crouch on his right knee. As he reached the verge of yelling out aloud, the sensation disappeared.

The pain was non-existent, as something solid replaced it. Lee realised that his nose have grown back at such a rate, that it caused the uncontrollable itching. He let out a sigh and stood up straight.

An and Mia assumed what was happening to Lee and glanced around. Though Lee had collected the defeated trolls, their math did not add up. They could swear that there were more than two hundred giant trolls.

"What is it?"

Lee asked as he saw the bemused expression of An. A silence followed the enquiry as An was absorbed in the mystery of vanishing trolls. But it was Ruella who gave the answer.

"When you were all fighting, the beings were mysteriously disappearing into the ground."

Lee raised his brow and nodded as D advised to convey the vital information regarding Ground Trolls. When Lee promptly narrated the facts, the three women became aware of the situation.

"...hence, we have to leave the area. The day light is almost out."

Even Fero unanimously agreed to Lee's statement. Their figures turned to south and leaped forward. The Ground Trolls saw their tactic failing, and a loud bellow came from the disguised cavemouths.

*GRAAH*

The deafening roar momentarily diverted their attention. But, Fero dashed past them and ululated. Seeing Fero's streamlined body running ahead of them, the realisation hit them hard, when a large warcry in unison rose behind them.

*GRAAAWR*

Horripilation enveloped them as they sprang forward with all they had. Even so, Ruella, An and Mia were not fast enough to outrun the trolls. A few spikes shot past them and proved the troll's gradual advancement. Lee had no other way than storing the ladies in the EsGen.

*pat pat pat*

Lee slowed down and came behind each one and patted their shoulders. One by one, Ruella and Mia went inside the space. An joined them a second later. The antelope neared him with consent.

*zoom*

The strength that Lee restrained so as to match the speed of the females, burst out. Where he stamped his foot had a firm mark on the ground. His Agility value of 320 greatly surpassed the Ground Troll's maximum speed value of 170.

Lee came near Fero and ran alongside him. Fero, in return, gave a giggle. In amusement, the hyena was taken to his master's bosom. Lee accelerated as he felt a little discomfort with Fero in his arms.

Unfortunately, he was unaware of the impending danger!
