Ling Qi smiled and didn't answer, just pointed to the deeper part of the cave. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Phew!

The sound of torches lighting up was accompanied by the sudden light of the room.

The people who only saw through the dim sunlight at the entrance of the cave were a little uncomfortable for a while!

"Who's coming! Who is pretending to be a ghost!"

Thorin was furious, and the fire provoked by Ling Qi had nowhere to vent, so he pulled out his sword with a bang, but did not pick up the more lethal and more convenient axe.

He was furious and walked directly in the direction of the shadows reflected in the firelight, and the dwarves immediately shouted to follow, and the human guards also breathed a sigh of relief, because Ling Qi stood up in a good time and led them to follow!

Compared to the dwarves' posture of fighting with weapons, Ling Qi is more like preparing for an outing or visiting friends.

Thorin had already guessed something from his performance, but he didn't want to suppress his anger!

He was angry at Ling Qi's attitude and jealous strength, he was angry at the dwarves' indisputability and his own contradictions, and he didn't feel the need to hide his anger in front of the comers, if it was really that guy!

Thorin glared angrily, completely ignoring the sourness of the tear ducts caused by the sudden change in light!

Soon, a long gray shadow slowly but firmly appeared in Thorin's field of vision, and at this moment, he trembled with anger, and almost threw the war sword in his hand directly!

"Gandalf!Mislanda!!"

Thorin almost squeezed the words out between his teeth, the hilt creaking as he gripped it. He even subconsciously called him Gandalf by the way the most hated elves called him, which was not an expression of affection or respect, but a disgust for everyone!

Of course, he didn't lose his mind like a madman and pounce on him, or order the dwarves to attack indiscriminately, wizards are not elves after all!

The wizard was indeed not an elf, but he brought with him a large number of elves.

This situation made Thorin almost turn his face on the spot, but fortunately he was stopped by Lynch in time, and the elves on the opposite side looked at them with eyes that were definitely not friendly, just like the heavily guarded dwarves.

Thorin doesn't need the friendliness of the elves, but he needs Gandalf's explanation!

"Gandalf, what are you doing with these stinky elves!

Thorin was horrified and frightened, if those elves knew his purpose and found out that he actually held the secret of the back door of the Lonely Mountain Treasury, with his knowledge of the elves, his plan would definitely fail, and even the rest of his life would not be too easy. A water dungeon or a dilapidated grass hut was the most wonderful paradise he could imagine.

"Gandalf, Master Wizard, what the hell do you mean!"

As the second oldest of the dwarves, Old Balin usually had to be on top when Thorin didn't want to speak or needed to add or reiterate his words.

Gandalf pursed his lips a little helplessly, this expression appeared on the usually serious wizard, as if he was grimacing, it was easy to dispel the hostility of others, and it also proved that the wizard himself was actually in a good mood.

"Bilbo isn't dead!"

This subtle signal made Alex happy, but the dwarves were not so easily dispelled by hostility.

Not to mention that Gandalf's previous practice of abandoning the battle had already caused the gray-robed wizard to lose his reputation among the dwarves. Just the sudden appearance of a large group of heavily armed elves out of the darkness was enough to make the dwarves very wary!

"Gandalf! I want to know what these elves are like! I don't like their gaze. ”

Ling Qi stepped out of the crowd at this time and stood beside Thorin to make his position clear.

The three of them said similar words in different tones, which made Gandalf, who was originally in a good mood, directly stretch a donkey face.

"Thorin, Lynch, and Balin! These are our friends! They are the ones who saved our mutual comrade-in-arms, Bilbo! Are you thanking your friends with your swords?"

Gandalf snorted angrily, his tone heavy, as if he was really disappointed and distressed by the actions of the dwarves and humans.

Influenced by the reaction of the dwarven friends and the rude gaze of the strange elves, at this time, the human guards also drew their weapons one after another, and the dwarves helped each other, blocking the already small space at the bottleneck of the cave.

Although they were all dressed in the same equipment, humans looked much more threatening than dwarves, and some elves had subconsciously tightened their weapons and were ready to fight back, forced by their fierce aura. Even so, their arrogant and arrogant gazes have never changed in the slightest!

A coalition of humans and dwarves of about thirty people confronted an elven force that might be less than thirty people. No one thought that the coalition could win, and even in such a narrow place, the elves had the strength to overwhelm the average alien warrior, which was a natural advantage, not a terrain limit. And their equipment is really good, compared to it, the escort regiment that Ling Qi spent a lot of money to build seems to be a beggar army.

"Hmph, put away your weapons! Gandalf, I'm not believing them for their sake of saving Bilbo! Besides, you've all left, and now you're coming back quietly, I need your explanation!"

With Thorin's order, although reluctant, the dwarves put down their swords and axes one after another, but they were even more guarded than before, as if they were about to roar and kill at the slightest disturbance.

Ling Qi waved his hand, and the guards also lowered their weapons. The fact that the enemy was strong and weak on the surface made the guards not resist this order too much, and this was the only reason why Thorin decided not to resist.

Bilbo: Who cares if he lives or dies but Gandalf!

The elf on the opposite side obviously focused more on Ling Qi's body, perhaps because he had a similar bloodline, or it could be because the momentum he exuded was the most powerful, and he was full of spirit.

But even when they faced him, their arrogance was only slightly restrained, and these elves were afraid of arrogance only in front of dragons and demon kings, except for the strong men of their own clan.

"Gandalf, I have great respect for you, which is why I joined this operation. But what you're doing now—"

Lynch said lightly, the meaning of his words became clearer, and Thorin immediately pricked up his ears.

The explanation he wanted was not why Gandalf had escaped and returned after leaving the team without permission. He was there to save people, no matter how hateful and ignorant Thorin was, and he was not his subordinate.

Lynch's words are the key!

He wanted the wizard to take a stand, and wanted to ask him if he had taken this operation to heart, if he had leaked his secrets to outsiders, and if he had been complicit with the elves!

That's the point!

"Hmph! Explain! Explain what! Explain that I fought my way out of the siege alone? Explain that I had to ask my old friend for help to save Bilbo? I want to ask you, how did you promise me before! Could it be that the current dwarves don't even know how to care about the safety of their comrades on the battlefield?"

Gandalf didn't seem to hear Thorin's voiceover, and the answer was already clear.

He's got involved with the elves, absolutely nothing but for Bilbo.

Thorin understood, relieved, but not sure.

Then, Gandalf looked at Ling Qi again, his gaze much softer than when he had looked at Thorin.

"Lynch, I'm just bringing some friends to meet some other friends to meet old friends, do you think there's something wrong with me?"

Gandalf's voice was low, and he suddenly winked at Ling Qi.

Thorin saw his small movements, most of the human guards and dwarves saw it, and Thorin saw it too, only the elves behind him didn't.

Thorin breathed a sigh of relief, Gandalf was still the same Gandalf.

Ling Qi also smiled, but there was a slight vigilance in his heart, and he could feel Gandalf's gaze looking at him as if it was coming from far, far away, not just the bound Maiya soul under the old shell!

The real gaze, which has nothing to do with his expression, is full of holiness and majesty, and it is scrutinizing!

Ling Qi wasn't even sure if Gandalf was aware of this situation, maybe the wizard was starting to doubt him again?!

Fortunately, he has done so much work in the land of mead, and it has not been in vain.

Even after leaving there, some people who firmly trusted him could still provide him with a lot of things that could disguise his demonic essence at any time!

That's more than half the distance when it was close, but it flows for a long time, which is also the biggest reason why Ling Qi left the Ice Ring Spirit clone to defend the land of honey!

What bullshit supply and transportation base, the rear of the team, where can it be compared to one-ten-thousandth of personal self-interest.

Gandalf quickly withdrew that gaze, or rather that glare left his body.

He—It didn't see anything!

Gandalf frowned, wondering if he noticed something strange on him, or if he was just puzzled by the fact that he didn't find anything.

"Hmph, Gandalf, you're right, we were negligent on the battlefield before, we didn't take care of Bilbo!"

"And now, where do you want to take us!

Thorin who breathed a sigh of relief was not so easy to relax, the prejudice against the elves was one thing, and acting was also the key.

Devalin, who was beside him, snorted at this time and muttered something, as if he was unworthy of being comrades-in-arms, they were not nannies or something, but unfortunately no one cared about his attitude.

Gandalf sighed helplessly, then raised his staff and silently emitted a small white halo that dispelled the cold in the cave, as well as the dark side and hostility in the hearts of dwarves and humans!

Alex instantly hid behind the tall captain of the guard, Farryn, and Gandalf looked at Ling Qi with kindness as if he didn't notice his small movements, as if to say to him, it's time for him, a sensible soundman, to persuade the stubborn dwarf!

The alarm bell rang in Ling Qi's heart, and the extremely distant, inhuman gaze of the source appeared in Gandalf's sight again!

The soft white light fuels its might! Perhaps the two are one and the same!

The light, which had been basically harmless to him just now, turned into a blazing flame in an instant, and it was going to burn all his disguises so that it could see his true nature!

Gandalf knew that!

He was clearly consciously fueling its ferocious flames!

What's that? some Vera behind him?

He didn't expect Gandalf to be so wary of him, he didn't expect that he would attract this level of existential attention so early. But why did this happen? He thought that the other party had trusted him, and that trust should have lasted for a long time!

He should have expected that at least half a second in the morning would be enough for him to react rationally, so that he would not have to fall into the passivity he is now!

It's not easy for wizards to cast spells, and they will never use spells to achieve some small goals unless the situation is critical, such as improving the target's mood or something, which is not what Maiya should do!

The white light was much fainter than the spell he had previously unleashed on the battlefield, and outsiders probably thought that it could only be used for lighting!

The elves in emerald gold armor extinguished their torches one after another, and they enjoyed the halo as if they were soaking in the fountain of life.

Ling Qi was silent, and soon felt that Gandalf's soft gaze carried a vague majesty that was several times heavier than just now!

It condensed the white light that was hotter than magma to him into a big hand, and pressed it down on him, this is to destroy humanity!

It's almost clear, it's coming to an end!

Ling Qi clenched his fists, then released them again, a sneer almost came to his face, the demon clone had already reached the outside of the barrier, and he was absolutely sure that he would destroy all the targets that might become enemies within three minutes!

If you dare to tear through his disguise, you must be prepared to bear the price of your recklessness!
