Chapter 176 - Troll Village
—I am not a Troll, I am an Orc!
\'Huh!? Are you sure? The orc I know does not have not green skin,\' Tang Shaoyang suspiciously asked back. The Orc he knew was the orc from the second portal.
—Those orcs are fake, I am the real deal!
The Great Karan snorted unhappily for being compared with the weak orc from the second portal.
—There\'s no fake creature, you are an Orc, and the monster in the second portal is also an Orc. You both are the same but different subspecies, just like the green goblin and the dark goblin, the Death Scythe.
Zaneos came up with a plausible explanation.
\'Then what about an Orc from your world? What they looked like?\' The curious Tang Shaoyang asked while watching Lu An assassinate the troll. The young man activated [Dash] and sliced the troll\'s neck with [Fatal Strike].
—The Orc I know is similar to Karan, I don\'t know that a pig-headed orc exists. The second portal is my first time seeing that kind of an orc
—Do you hear that? Those weaklings are fake
Karan could not accept being compared, he yelled in his head. Tang Shaoyang chose not to continue the topic as he followed Lu An through the dense forests.
The deeper they were, the more trolls they encountered. After ten minutes of venturing into the forest, they had killed fifteen stage-2 Trolls in total. However, they found nothing unusual but the wandering trolls.
After killing the fifteenth, they continued to walk. Around fifty meters, Lu An and Tang Shaoyang stopped as they found an establishment, or more likely to be a village of the troll.
The moment their eyes stopped at the village, they saw a floating translucent screen on top of the village.
[Troll Village Level 1]
The words were big enough for them to see it from a fifty meters distance. Curious, both came closer to the village, but they did not attack the village. With wooden fences surrounding the village, wooden houses with a straw roof. Typically a backward village with trolls wandered around.
—Why don\'t you try [Basic Detection]?
Zaneos spoke in Tang Shaoyang\'s head, \'I am about to do that,\' he replied while casting the skill. To his surprise, the skill was working in the village.

[Troll Village]
Level: 1
Chief: Stage-2 Troll Warrior
Population: 49x Stage-1 Troll

Lu An seemed to do the same, they exchanged glances with the information, "Should we try raiding the village?" Lu An asked in a whisper.
"Let\'s do that, maybe we will get a treasure chest or even a level from destroying the village," Tang Shaoyang grinned in return.
The Boss rushed from the entrance while the subordinate sneaked into the village. It was a one-sided slaughter, the trolls would die before they could swing their ax. Lu An finished the stage-2 Troll Warrior, the last troll, and also the village chief.
Slash!
The troll\'s head rolled down on the ground while the body followed to fall afterward. They had killed all trolls, but no notifications whatsoever.
"Huh? What\'s wrong? Do we get nothing from capturing the village?" Lu An looked confused as the awaited notification did not come.
Tang Shaoyang looked around, wondering if they missed the troll. He looked up to check the village status.
————————
[Troll Village]
Level: 1
Chief: Dead
Population: Dead

Standing amidst the dead bodies, he rubbed his chin. There must be a condition to capture the vill-
"Ah, the flag? Search for the flag, Lu An!" He remembered the fort would fall if the flag in the main building was taken or destroyed. Lu An immediately checked into the main building, where the village chief came out. Sure enough, he brought a green flag with him.
Tang Shaoyang took the flag and ripped the flag apart. As he guessed, the flag was the key.
[You have destroyed Troll Village Level 1]
[Congratulations! You acquired +1 Skill Point]
No treasure chest, no level but they got Skill Point. He was surprised and turned toward his subordinate, wanting to ask if he got Skill Point as well. Tang Shaoyang did not need to ask as he could tell that from Lu An\'s expression.
"Let\'s split! We will scout all villages and mark them on the minimap. We will attack the villages together after the next wave," Tang Shaoyang immediately told Lu An his plan, "Five hours, you have to get back here in five hours," they set up their rendezvous point.
Skill Point was something that was very hard to get. They rarely got the Skill Point as a reward, so he wanted to share the reward with his people. Lu An understood the importance of the village and nodded his head.
Just like that, they split up into different directions. Tang Shaoyang went to the left and Lu An went to the right.
Tang Shaoyang rushed toward the left, it was around three hundred meters from the first village before he met the second village. He was about to mark the area until he found a big red dot on his minimap. The big red dot was the sign of the village.
He avoided the village and continued venturing deeper into the forest. Two hours, he found twenty-six Level 1 Troll Villages. Twenty-six villages meant twenty-six Skill Points.
Tang Shaoyang did not stop even after he found twenty-six villages. He went further into the forest and he found a different village, not just level 1 village, but the first level 2 village.
————————
[Troll Village]
Level: 2
Chief: Stage-3 Troll Champion
Population: 50x Stage-1 Troll 49x Stage-2 Troll Warriors
————————
Tang Shaoyang had an impulse to attack the village by himself. However, he managed to hold back and went ahead. \'I wonder how many Skill Points for Level 2 Troll Village?\'
—It should be around 3 to 5 Skill Points. Should not be more than 5 for sure
Zaneos shared his analysis as they went even deeper.
Two and a half hours passed, Tang Shaoyang was standing thirty meters away from the first Level 3 Troll Village.
————————
[Troll Village]
Level: 3
Chief: Stage-4 Troll Berserker
Population: 150x Stage-2 Troll Warriors, 50x Stage-3 Troll Champions
————————
Tang Shaoyang wanted to go deeper into the forest, but Zaneos reminded him of the time. He checked the time, he realized that he had to go back now.
With a big smile plastered on his face, he went back to the first village. There was no much hurdle on the way as he went straight to the location. Even though he had found Level 2 and Level 3 Troll Village, but the wandering troll was the same stage-2 Troll Warrior.
\'Why would they wander around? Are they not part of the tribe?\' He immediately threw away such a thought to him back of his head, not that important.
When he arrived at the first village, Lu An was already there, "How many?" He immediately asked while his voice was seething in excitement.
"23 Level 1 Troll Village, 21 Level 2 Troll Village, and 3 Level 3 Troll Village," Lu An reported his discoveries with a big grin.
