Chapter 111: The Meaning of the Expedition

"You swore an oath to the Black Dragon?"

Staring at Thranduil, Legolas said incredulously.

Holding the starlight white gem, Thranduyi's face was full of intoxication, and he said, "Yes, allegiance to the black dragon is the best choice. ”

"Father, you said before that elves don't bow down to any force."

"Children who have never been out of the forest will never know how big and dangerous the world outside the forest is, let alone how to survive."

Putting the gem down, Thranduil's expression was serious: "Legolas, you are too young, war is not a joke, have you ever seen Iruber being consumed by flames?"

I have witnessed the rise of the dwarves and the desperate expressions of the dwarves.

The elves are not weak, but they are not the strongest, and we do not come out of the dark forest, but it does not mean that the enemy turns a blind eye.

And, don't take it too lightly.

You need to recognize yourself, how weak you are, what kind of attitude you should show in the face of the strong, and you need to learn a lot. ”

With that, Thranduil turned away, and Legolas stood still in deep thought.

The thick body crushed the ground and trees, and returned to the stream, where nearly a hundred demon spiders had piled up.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen unceremoniously feasted, and the elf warriors around him were terrified.

"How many demon spiders are there in the dark forest?"

Hearing this, the female elf warrior knelt down on one knee and said, "Respected true dragon, such demon spiders reproduce very quickly, all over the entire dark forest, they are hidden in tree holes, luxuriant branches and leaves, there are countless numbers, no matter how you kill them, you can't kill them all. ”

"That's right.

Then go ahead.

Don't stop ......"

Eating the demon spider into his stomach, Zhang Chen was quite happy, it was best if he couldn't kill it, he was worried about not enough nutrition.

As for the news of the Northlands, it is up to Thrandui to pay attention to.

As the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun renders the land.

In the town of Long Lake, in the mayor's luxurious house, Gandalf's eyes were closed, and his spirit was in contact with a bird in his hand.

"Galadriel, how's Moria's doing?"

"Orcs have trampled villages and towns, legions of humans and elves have waged war against orcs, and although we have won, we have only stopped 10,000 orcs.

Currently, the whereabouts of the Orc King and the other Orc legions are unknown. Orcs and dwarves are as deep as the sea, and the target is most likely Lone Mountain, so be careful. ”

"The expedition is going more smoothly than expected, we have escaped the pursuit of the orcs, and we will soon arrive at the Lonely Mountain, you should rush over to support as soon as possible."

"Reinforcements are already on the way."

Opening his eyes, Gandalf stroked the bird's feathers, released his palm, and the bird flapped its wings and flew south.

For a moment, all eyes were on him.

"Gandalf, what's going on now?"

Gandalf sighed lightly: "The target of the orcs may be Iruber, with our combat strength, it is not enough to resist the orc legion, we need to send people to the Iron Hills, or even the dark forest." ”

When Thorin and the others heard this, they were silent.

"Thorin, Gandalf is right, now is not the time to be impulsive, this is not just an expedition, the target of the orcs is your hometown!"

"We will never trust Thranduil, they cannot be trusted. As for Dann II...... This is our expedition, and although it doesn't make much sense, we are finally going home.

The brothers have not returned to Irub for decades, and we are not afraid of orcs. ”

As he spoke, Thorin looked at Gandalf and said solemnly, "Dwarves are never cowardly, and if Azog dares to come, I will cut off his head with the sword in my hand, just as I cut off one of its arms in the battle for Moria decades ago." ”

In the evening, in the studio of the mayor of Changhu Town.

"Go to the Iron Hills and send a message, tell Dane II Ironfoot, and say that the orcs are fighting Irub's attention. When the dwarves win the war, you will gain their friendship.

If you live in Long Lake, you know how rich the palace of Eruber is. ”

Hearing this, the mayor chick pecked at the rice and nodded his head.

It is not a legend that the previous king of Irubor put most of the gold, silver and jewelry of Middle-earth into Irub, even children know that Irubor has the richest treasure in the world.

Although Gandalf's words were a bit tactful, the mayor of Changhu Town's heart was about to jump out.

This means that as long as the news is conveyed to the Lord of Iron Hills, he can obtain a huge amount of wealth.

"Willing to serve, my subordinates will send people to the Iron Hills."

The full moon hangs high, and the blue light is like water.

Sitting on the roof, his gray robe blowing without wind, Gandalf's mood was quite heavy.

"Gandalf?"

"Mr. Baggins, it's not a good habit to eavesdrop on other people's conversations."

Bilbo Baggins cautiously climbed up to the eaves and sat down, asking, "Why didn't you tell Thorin?" ”

"He's determined to be alone, and he doesn't want to implicate anyone, just as he didn't want you to join the expedition.

He knew that the dwarven expedition had no meaning, just a way home.

But the situation is very much at stake, the orcs want to kill them all, we need an army, and it's not just the orcs that I'm most worried about. ”

As he spoke, Gandalf looked at the nearby lonely mountain with a solemn expression.

"During the day, the townspeople are saying that yesterday Smaug rushed out of the Lonely Mountain, as if he was fighting something, and they saw the dragon flame in the sky, and I don't think they were lying."

Gandalf's expression was stunned, and he said solemnly: "The residents of the entire Changhu Town have seen it, naturally it can't be a lie, don't worry, I invite you to come out from the Shire to take risks, and I will naturally protect your safety." ”

"No, I'm a qualified adventurer now, with the ability to protect myself."

As he spoke, Bilbo Baggins pulled out the short sword at his waist and said with a smile: "Along the way, I have killed five half-orcs with this elven short sword, and I am not a burden in the team. ”

"Of course, no one thinks you're a burden, the dwarves like you, and I like you too, Mr. Baggins."

"Are we going to face the dragon?"

Gandalf shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, as long as you steal the Akon Gem, this trip will be complete." ”

Baggins nodded heavily, his right hand in his pocket, pinching a golden quaint ring, his thoughts wandering.

When Baggins left, Gandalf sat alone on the eaves and pondered.

What is it that can make Smaug break out of the lonely mountain and start an earth-shattering battle?

For a moment, he remembered what the prince of the woodland kingdom 'Legolas' had said when he left the Dark Forest.

He thought the elf must know something, but he didn't mention it.

The orcs started the war, and once Irubor was reduced to the orc realm, the dark jungle dozens of miles away would never be spared.

"What are you hiding?"
