Chapter 253: Death Here And There

The war trolls were Rank One monsters—but even among their rank, they were the kind that could singlehandedly wipe out an entire party of adventurers at the same level.

This was a well-documented fact.

The Adventurer's Guild explicitly warned against encountering war trolls without proper preparation. If one entered a dungeon or a region infested with them, it was advisable to bring at least three full parties, all with ample experience and a solid battle strategy.

Unless, of course, you happened to be a battle prodigy.

Or a suicidal fool.

Sylvia now understood exactly why these creatures were so feared.

The trolls rushed up the mountain path, their massive bodies moving with terrifying speed. They roared with rage and twisted excitement, their thunderous footsteps shaking the very ground beneath them.

And they were closing in.

She felt the world around her darken. A deep dread settled in her chest.
