Proper Way to Fight

After thinking about my skeleton army for a while, Ji-Hae and I decided to continue the raid.

"Ji-Hae where are we going now?"

"If you look ahead there are two different paths" Ji-Hae pointed to the two lanes that were quite far in front of us.

"Then where are we going?"

"I think it will be more interesting to take the right path, we can fight against trolls" Ji-Hae said that while smiling as if he really wanted to fight trolls.

"Then I will follow you"

Then we walked, I kept my skeleton army with me. I decided not to move them to blank space, it would also be good to see them fight.

After walking for a while, I could see more clearly these two paths. If we go to the left we will go deeper into the forest. And the terrain is also flatter, while in the right lane the terrain is more uphill, and also there are fewer trees. Like Ji-Hae said if we go to the right we might meet trolls.

I've thought about this, I've never met a troll or fought against him at all. From the information I got, the size is large, and its strength is much stronger than the orcs. However his fighting style is slow and that makes him easy to kill. But the problem is the size, it's difficult to attack the vital points on a large monster.

My orc skeletons might be more balanced in terms of defense and attack but they couldn't deal an attack that had a big impact on the trolls. Therefore I will rely on the attacks from the werewolf skeletons to attack the trolls.

After that we walked to the right lane, walking in this place was more tiring than I thought. I still don't see any monsters around here. The air felt different from where it was before, I looked around and we seemed to be at a pretty high altitude. The more we walked I felt that the place was a little foggy.

"Ji-Hae why is this place a bit foggy?" I asked out of curiosity about this place.

"That means we're getting closer hyungnim, we should meet trolls soon"

I looked around, the trees here were much less. In addition, the ground is more rocky and it is very uncomfortable to walk in this place. Suddenly Ji-Hae gave a signal to stop.

Then I saw there were trolls in front of us and there were 2 of them. Its size is much bigger than I thought, I didn't expect that a D-Rank portal monster had such a size.

"Hyungnim I will prepare some things first, wait a minute" Ji-Hae looks smiling in this situation, I don't understand why he is so excited.

After that Ji-Hae walked around the troll area, it seemed that the two trolls didn't notice Ji-Hae's presence. I don't understand what he's doing, but he's doing something in some places. I'm not really sure what he's preparing there.

I waited about 15 minutes then Ji-Hae came back to my place. He looks like he's done preparing what he needs but I don't understand what he's doing earlier.

"Hyungnim those two trolls can I beat them?" Ji-Hae said that while looking at me confidently.

"Just do what you want, I'll help you if anything happens. The skeleton army is ready too"

Then Ji-Hae looked at the 2 trolls, he walked while holding a small ball in his hand. After that he threw the ball at the two trolls, then the bomb exploded releasing some kind of chemical. The two trolls immediately chased after Ji-Hae, but Ji-Hae ran in one direction as if he was luring them there. Ji-Hae ran while looking at the troll every now and then, after getting close enough he took a turn.

After doing that he shouted something, and several arrows were fired from that place. The arrows hit the two trolls but did not have a big impact. The two trolls were getting angrier, and they went berserk. Their footsteps were faster than before and they chased after Ji-Hae again. After that Ji-Hae was seen running around back to the starting place, but he ran a little northward away from the center where the first two trolls were standing.

After running a little further, he slides forward and activates something again. Suddenly a rope formed on the ground and the rope tripped the two trolls. After that Ji-Hae threw another small ball, and after being thrown at the two trolls. The ball turned into a kind of net that tied the two trolls together.

It didn't end there, Ji-Hae took his dagger and he stabbed the two trolls in the head. After that the troll died and the head melted slightly. I don't know how to describe what just happened. It was absolutely perfectly planned. Ji-Hae set up traps in 2 places around the troll and he led the troll to the place where the trap was. Moreover he ended it without needing to directly fight the two trolls.

"What do you think hyungnim! I can be useful too hehehe" Ji-Hae walked towards me smiling after displaying his amazing skill.

"That's amazing, I didn't expect you to be able to do something like that"

"This is all the equipment I have prepared and I have studied troll movements when I was in the hunter academy back then"

"That's great you managed to execute it well"

After that Ji-Hae explained to me everything he had planned including his equipment as well as the skills he used against the two trolls.

First he used equipment made by his own company, the little ball had many different shapes. Some had a bomb-like effect, some had a debuff-like effect, some had a catching effect like a net just now. And also the trap that he installed that he made himself.

Trickster has the ability to activate a trap from a certain distance without having to touch it. It was a great skill and he put it to good use. In addition he explained that the first bomb was used to worsen the troll's sense of sight, the chemicals released made the troll's eyes hurt and it was difficult to see clearly. After that the arrows in the trap have poison, and the poison will make the troll hurt from time to time.

And finally the rope trap he has a small tool that can pull out the rope. He only needs to put the two tools horizontally or vertically straight. And when activated they will lift and make a rope that is connected to each other. The technology is also made by the company.

Besides that, the most great thing, Ji-Hae has a skill that can estimate the distance to the surrounding object. He said it wasn't a very special skill, but it was very useful. Not only affects the enemy, but also can estimate the distance between us and our friends.

"Even though I can kill the two trolls but I need 15 minutes to prepare it, it's not that great huh"

"You're wrong Ji-Hae, your skills are great and will be useful in various situations. You also know how to use them well."

"Hehe I did that so you can trust me hyungnim, after all we are now a team"

"I always believed in you, thanks to you now I will learn to use my abilities properly"

Since you've killed both trolls, now we have to find another troll. But before that I have to use their corpses to make my new weapons. I approached the troll's corpse slowly and I saw the melted head.

"Ji-Hae why did the part of the head you stabbed melt like this?"

"It was caused by the poison I put on my dagger"

"That's terrible, the impact of the poison crushed the monster's head"

Then I pointed my hand at the troll corpse and I activated my skill. "Bone Shaper!" I control the bones, and I try to form another weapon. I moved slowly and I saw the bones fused together quickly and formed an axe. After that on the other corpse I tried to make a shield.

This is great, now I have what I need despite only having 1 pair. Axes are commonly used by skeleton orcs to deal powerful attacks. While the spear earlier and this shield is to withstand enemy attacks. At least now I can try it.

"Come on Ji-Hae we have to go find trolls again, they will make a good opponent for my skeleton army."

"Let's go hyungnim!"

After that I went uphill again to higher ground, to be honest it's getting colder up here. The fog is still annoying but I can still see pretty well. It wasn't long before we walked, I heard the sound of loud footsteps, and the closer we got to him the louder the sound. I don't know what it is but we keep moving forward. After walking a few more steps, I was shocked by what I saw.
