Chapter 137: The Wolf
"A bunch of brain-dead!"
An axe cut the Roshan Great Demon King in front of him in two, Li Mu did not show any softness when he moved his hand, and Gollum was dispensable for Li Mu.
Unexpectedly, Li Mu turned his face when he said it, ignoring the threat of the half-orcs in the pit, Li Mu cleanly killed their queen, brandished his two-handed axe, and easily killed the encirclement.
Using the orcs to eliminate the threat of Gollum, Li Mu estimated that Bilbo should be able to escape with the power of the Ring, and Li Mu went straight to the meeting place agreed with Gandalf before he got out of the mine.
Sure enough, as Li Mu expected, when he returned to the team, Bilbo was showing off to Thorin and the others about his heroic deeds of Uncle Snitch who escaped death.
After Li Mu returned to the team, everyone decided to set off immediately after resting for a while, after all, after the big trouble in the mine, there would definitely be a large number of orcs to chase and kill them.
The land of right and wrong should not be stayed for a long time!
After a seemingly never-ending trek, Li Mu and his party came to a clearing where no trees grew, and the moon had risen and was shining peacefully on the place. Although there was nothing special about the four places, they all found it a little weird.
At this moment, there was a howl in the distance, a terrible, piercing howl; On the right, a closer response was heard, and not far to the left.
It's the wolf howling moon, and they're calling for their friends!
There were no wolves near Mr. Baggins' burrow, but he recognized the sound, which he had often heard described in legends; One of his relatives, from the Tuk family, was a traveler who had deliberately mimicked the sound to frighten him.
Hearing this sound in the forest was too exciting for Bilbo, and even the magic ring was useless to the wolves, especially the evil wolves that infested the area. These wolves have a sharper sense of smell than orcs, and they don't need to rely on sight at all, so they can still easily catch their prey!
"What are we going to do, what are we going to do?"
The Lord of the Rings was useless, and Bilbo lost his grip and shouted in panic, "I just dodged the orcs and was caught by the wolves!" ”
"Hurry up and get up the tree! I'll deal with them! ”
Half-orcs and wolves, Li Mu didn't pay attention to it, Li Mu had seen the biochemical weapons that were more disgusting than this in the last days of biochemistry, but what Li Mu was afraid of was the lives of Bilbo and the thirteen dwarves, don't think you have to give it.
Hearing Li Mu's shout, Gandalf and the dwarves had great confidence in Li Mu, and ran to the woods at the edge of the meadow, looking for pine trees with rather low branches, or trees that were thinner and easier to climb.
Fili and Chili hide on a tall, Christmas tree-like larch;
Dori, Nori, Ori, Oyin, and Groyin are hidden in a huge pine tree, its branches stretching out like a wheel;
Berger, Beaufer, and Pombert all huddled together on a thin cedar tree, trying to find a place to settle among the sparse branches;
Gandalf, on the other hand, was taller than everyone else, so it was easy to find a tall pine tree that no one else could climb and look down on the scene.
As for Bilbo? He could not climb a single tree at all, and could only run from bush to bush in a panic, like a poor hare hunted by hounds, looking for a hiding place.
"You've left the Snitch behind again!" Nolli said to Dori.
"I can't run around with the Snitch on my back every time, can I?" Hugging the trunk of the tree, Duoli complained to himself: "Even if you are in the tunnel, you still have to climb the tree?" Do you think I'm a porter? ”
"If we don't think about it, he'll be eaten!"
At this time, the wolf howls around him were getting closer and closer, and Thorin said with rare worry: "Dori! Hurry up, give Mr. Baggins a hand! ”
Li Mu did not go up the tree in the team, holding a two-handed axe, confronting the hundreds of wolves in front of him. Seeing that Bilbo behind him couldn't climb the tree for half a day, Li Mu decisively pulled back, grabbed Bilbo and threw him to Doli who answered the tree.
At this moment, the wolves howled and rushed to the clearing, and hundreds of pairs of eyes glared at them at once, constantly slashing and slashing the wild wolves that pounced, and Li Mu finally got Bilbo up the tree at the last moment.
Without Bilbo's worries, Li Mu could finally let go of his posture and have a good fight with the wild wolves in front of him who were drooling at the corners of his mouth and had a green light in his eyes.
The wolves had lived in the Great Wilderness and could not climb trees, but Bilbo and his party were at least safe for the time being, but fortunately the weather was quite warm and there was not much wind. The branches themselves are not very suitable for sitting for long periods of time, but if you are in the cold wind surrounded by wild wolves, it is really a place to die.
This clearing in the forest is clearly a gathering place for wild wolves, and more and more wolves are concentrating in this area. They left guards under the trees where Dori and Bilbo were hiding, and sniffed around until they found all the trees where people were hiding.
Maybe a large number of companions died at the hands of Li Mu, and the wild wolf who bullied the soft and feared the hard was not a brute guy. They sent guards to guard the trees, and hundreds of other wolves sat in a circle in the middle of the meadow, and in the center of the circle was a large gray wolf who spoke to them in the terrifying language of a wolf.
Gandalf and Li Mu could both understand it, and although Bilbo couldn't understand it, he found every word they said terrifying. Every once in a while, the wolves in a circle would respond in unison to the leader's words, a terrifying roar that made the little hobbit almost fall under the tree.
He and the others were forced to the edge of the cliff, behind the cliff was a bottomless abyss of terror, and on the opposite side were calling friends, more and more wild wolves. Although under the slaughter of his own blood type, he deterred the wolves for a while and made the other party stop the fierce attack, but listening to the communication between the wolves, the army of orcs was on their way.
If it drags on like this, it will be absolutely difficult for Li Mu and the others to escape, but being blocked in a Jedi, Li Mu can only grit his teeth and try to hold on like a trapped beast.
Fortunately, Destiny didn't intend to play with himself, just when the wild wolves were getting closer and closer, a large group of giant eagles suddenly swooped down from the sky, grabbed Li Mu and the others with their claws, and disappeared into the clouds.
The orcs let out a piercing howl in anger and disappointment. The Eagle King chirped loudly, and Gandalf was talking to him. The giant eagles that had been with him swooped down again, like great black shadows, into the forest. The wolves gritted their teeth and roared, and the orcs stomped their feet angrily and threw their spears into the sky in vain.
