Gandalf led the way with his staff, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the path ahead as if it were daylight.

He frowned and said, "Be prepared, the dark underworld is very large, no city can compare to it, plus the terrain is complicated, the road is tortuous, I'm afraid we will have to walk for four days to reach the exit." ”

"It's okay, there are still dozens of catties of octopus meat here, and if it really doesn't work, we will slaughter the reserve ingredients, which is enough for us to walk out of the mine in style." Russell patted the nightmare, and secretly said in his heart that it was a pity, I don't know if they will ride a horse the next time they meet the ring spirit.

"Hooray!" X4

"Russell, you're so well prepared."

"Great, now you don't have to go hungry!"

“……”

"Ahem, be quiet, you're going to alarm the enemy." Seeing a group of people cheering for the three meals, Gandalf couldn't stand it anymore, we are the Lord of the Rings Expedition, shouldering the fate of the entire Middle-earth continent, can we not always think about eating.

But then again, what does nightmare smell like?

……

Gandalf's travels have traveled throughout Middle-earth, having visited Moriath before, and the group follows the Leader as they move deeper into the mines.

The complex passage is rugged and steep, the plank road and the stone corridor are still good roads, many one-person wide stone bridges span the top of the abyss, the cliffs on the left and right sides are thousands of feet, pitch black, and the lighting technique cannot see the end, and I really dare not walk over without a little guts.

The picture is a little familiar, which reminds Russell of the main god space site mission some time ago, stone path + abyss, all kinds of bottomless.

During this time, Gandalf got lost once, after all, Moria's area was so large that a mountain was almost hollowed out by the dwarves, and it was understandable that he had not been there.

The dwarves dug holes wherever they wanted, which brought a lot of trouble to the group, and many people were hungry while walking, phew, and many roads were gone while walking. Either the roads were not completed, or they were abandoned in the middle of the digging, and some were cut off directly.

The broken stone road could not be crossed, and everyone relied on the nightmare to get through it easily, without having to take a long detour or turn back, saving a lot of time.

The mine was pitch black, there was no sun rising and moon setting, and everyone didn't know how long they had walked, anyway, the octopus meat had already been eaten.

"Wait a minute, this Nightmare is still useful, we need him."

Seeing Russell sharpening his knife and trying to boil the nightmare cauldron, Gandalf hurriedly stopped him, although he was curious about whether the nightmare meat was delicate, but now was not a good time to taste the food.

"Alas, the dry food is hard to chew and hard to swallow, and I have lost weight." Jin Li swallowed the coarse grain with great difficulty, stared at the nightmare, fantasized about eating meat, and barely managed to deal with it.

"Gandalf, there's something behind us." Frodo swallowed in fright when he saw a black shadow flickering beneath the vein, it wasn't the first time he had seen this black shadow.

"That's Gollum!" Gandalf didn't look back and said, he had already found out.

Russell and the others have also seen Gollum a few times, but because they can't eat it, they don't pay much attention to it, as long as they don't provoke them, they are willing to follow along.

Frodo was surprised, "Gandalf, are you talking about Gollum, is that Uncle Bilbo back then...... But wasn't he imprisoned in Sauron's Barado dungeon? ”

"Well, that's him."

Gandalf affirmed, "He was freed to follow us for the One Ring, a fallen man corrupted by darkness. ”

"It's a shame that Uncle Bilbo didn't kill him back then." Frodo frowned, Gollum secretly watching made him feel insecure.

"No, Frodo, you can't think like that!" Gandalf turned slowly, his face serious, and looked directly at Frodo: "Bilbo didn't kill Gollum because of his kindness, he thinks Gollum is a poor victim. ”

"But, but he's already corrupted by the Ring...... Frodo doesn't understand, he only knows that Gollum is very dangerous.

"That's true, but Bilbo let him go." Gandalf sighed: "There are many living people who deserve to die, and there are also some dead people who should not die, promise me, Frodo, when you one day control the fate of others, you must judge carefully!" ”

"......" Frodo doesn't know why, but it feels so powerful.

Seeing Frodo's face, Gandalf knew that he didn't understand, and looked at Russell with a sigh: "Master Russell, what would you do if you were holding the Ring and being followed by Gollum?" ”

After asking this sentence, Gandalf regretted it, and asked Russell what he was doing, isn't it full of food!

Sure enough, Russell didn't disappoint Gandalf.

"Can Gollum be eaten?"

Gandalf's face was full of black lines: "No, although he was tortured by the Lord of the Rings, he was also a hobbit originally. ”

Russell nodded: "There are no people and no ghosts, it must be painful to live, it is better to go down with a knife to help him get free, and it can be regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue." ”

Gandalf: "......"

Frodo's eyes lit up, or what Russell said was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, at least he could understand it.

"Frodo, don't think so much about things, this world is too complicated, true and false, right and wrong, you can't satisfy everyone, and you can't always be right." Russell shrugged: "Keep your heart, stick to the bottom line, do what you think is right, and that's it." ”

Hearing Russell's words, Frodo was thoughtful, Gandalf shook his head and didn't speak, Russell rambled a lot of nonsense, and he basically meant the same thing.

"Woo woo woo ————"

At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly rolled up in the dark underworld.

The mournful whine was followed by a rumbling trumpet, faintly mixed with the roars and shrill laughter of wild beasts.

Half-orcs!

Gandalf's eyes widened, and he leaned down to look into the abyss beneath the cliff, and the illumination spell fell, and dense black shadows wriggled closer.

The Black Shadow is a humanoid monster with a hideous and ugly face clad in iron armor, carrying swords and weapons on its back, crawling rapidly upward against the cliff.

Legolas took his longbow, and the arrows rained down, and he didn't see how he could take aim, and with every sound of the bow, an orc would fall off the cliff.

"It's useless, there are too many of them." Russell said that the terrain here is narrow, and it is not suitable for fighting.

"Let's go!"

Gandalf made a quick decision, leading the crowd towards the depths of Moria, and behind the temple of Aragon, the holy sword was raised high to cut off the stone path, delaying the half-orcs as much as possible.

……

The group fled in a hurry, gradually moving away from the pursuers behind them, they did not slow down, since the orcs found them, they would definitely not give up, and must leave the Moriath pit before the next wave of siege and interception arrived.

The crowd had already made it through the most difficult journey, and with the acceleration of the wild run, they quickly passed through the stone path and entered the underground kingdom at the end.

The dwarven homeland of Caesardûm, before evil spawned, that was its true name, not Moria!

It's a palace of immense grandeur, and even Gandalf's illumination is only the tip of the iceberg.

Around everyone, a hundred-meter-high stone pillar is propped up, with a diameter of more than ten meters, carved by the dwarf himself. Such stone pillars are densely packed in the palace, each with an interval of 30 meters, and there are tens of thousands, or even more.

Majestic and eye-opening!

"Woo woo woo ————"

At this moment, the horn of the orcs sounded again, and the sound of killing came from all sides of the palace.

With the help of illumination, everyone was shocked to realize that the palace was actually the lair of the orcs, and the ceiling, walls, and ground, the half-orc ants crawled out of the caves and cracks, surrounding them.

There were so many that in the blink of an eye, they blocked the way out, and there was no time left for them to escape.

"Roar Roar Roar ————"

The roaring shouts and killing were deafening, except for the location of Russell and the others, the rest of the palace was densely packed with orcs, and those who had nowhere to stay climbed on the stone pillars.

"Hurry up, the orcs are too loud."

A cold sweat broke out on Gandalf's forehead, and the orcs were not to be feared, but their loud voices would attract the sleeping fire demons of the abyss, and that was the real trouble.

And, ever since he decided to move to the Moriath Mines, Gandalf was worried about what he would lose.

What is it?

Gandalf kept reassuring himself not to think too much, but he knew full well that the foreboding was not unfounded, and that he would most likely lose his life here.

Unless the creator god boss is willing to help him hang up!

Sou! Sou! Sou!

Faced with the threat of the orcs, the Fellowship of the Ring immediately retaliated, and Legolas fired three arrows in a row, with a layer of white light attached to them, and the piercing power was amazing. The orc's poor armor was like papier-mâché in front of the arrows, and each arrow could pierce through four or five orcs.

Legolas nodded with satisfaction, it was not in vain that he had been working hard during this time, and the improvement in his strength was visible to the naked eye.

With the holy sword of Aragon in hand, the charge was unstoppable, and the blood flowed everywhere it passed. The performance of several other people is also remarkable, even the most powerful Boromo can kill all directions, a sword and a half-orc, easy and freehand, just like an outing.

Of course, the most eye-catching is Gandalf, and it is difficult to judge his specific occupation.

You say he's a mage, and his arm strength is amazing, and when he pulls down his staff, the wind shoots and blasts a dozen orcs head-on; You say that he is a warrior, he sees and hears in all directions, his steps are agile and changeable, and the orcs rush up and cannot even touch the corners of his clothes; You say he's an assassin, and his backhand is a lighting spell that blinds the eyes of orcs, and then his knife falls.

The three major professions of mage, warrior, and assassin can switch freely, and they can resist and fight, and they can output, killing orcs and doubting their lives.

Russell didn't make a move, piling up the four hobbits on the nightmare and guarding them. It was not easy for the half-orcs either, which reminded him of the devils during the Anti-Japanese War, and it took eight years to escape.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Bang ————

The palace floor shook, dull footsteps rang out, and five huge humanoid monsters appeared in view.

They were armed with giant hammers and were chained by orcs, each of them more than six meters tall. When he came to the center of the battlefield and found that he couldn't squeeze in, he immediately activated his wisdom head, and the giant hammer swept against the ground, overturning a large area of orcs, clearing out the space to move forward.

"It's an ogre!"

The dwarven warrior Golden Bolt let out a loud shout, and the battle axe split the orcs in front of him, intending to rush forward and shatter the trolls' knees.

The little short leg suffered a lot on the battlefield, and he had just taken a few steps when two sharp arrows shot out, hitting the trolls' eyeballs.

"Roar Roar Roar ————"

The ogre screamed miserably, and the mournful screams resonated, and the other trolls roared, shaking the palace with thunder.

"Quick! Kill them quickly, their voices are too loud. Gandalf shouted angrily, louder than a troll.

"Let me come!" Russell let out a loud shout, louder than Gandalf.

The thunder rolled, and Russell arced around him, turning into two silver-white giant wolves that were galloping.

The giant wolf ran on all fours, extremely fast, and where it went, the orcs fell when they touched it, and they fell next to each other, rushing to the middle of the trolls, and the white light of their whole body suddenly brightened.

Thundered!!!

The dazzling glare flashed, the trolls evaporated and melted, and the sudden shock wave blew the orcs to stagger, the palace rumbled and trembled, and large pieces of rubble fell, never stopping for a moment.

The air was filled with the smell of burnt stench, and the orcs, who were still shouting and shouting to kill, stood on the spot at the moment, not daring to make a sound.

The scene was unusually quiet, and Russell grinned and gave Gandalf a thumbs up, with a look of hidden merit and fame.

Don't praise me!

Gandalf: "......"
