Chapter 53: Wake up

Outside.

Smaug was quietly prostrate on the ground, and at the moment when Xiao Yechen bit into the crystal sac, it Smaug clearly felt that he had lost the most precious thing, and at the same time, the aura in his eyes dimmed, with a trace of confusion, his whole body fell down with a bang, his breathing became weaker and weaker, and his vitality gradually disappeared.

He didn't figure out what exactly killed it until it died!

Speaking of Xiao Yechen, at this time, he had fallen into a coma, and the beads condensed by the essence of the moon in his mouth were gradually melting, turning into a mysterious halo that wrapped his body and continued to merge into it.

In his body, the energy turned into the crystal capsule was still surging around, and the violent impact made Xiao Yechen's body tremble constantly, and blood was flowing out of his mouth from time to time.

If it weren't for the weak inaudible breath and the slightly heaving chest, anyone who saw it would think it was a dead man. Of course, he won't be seen wearing the Ring.

However, every impact of energy, although it brought him a lot of damage, would leave wisps of flesh and blood that melted into the depths of the cells, and fused with them, producing the slightest indescribable change.

At the same time, the Moon Essence that enveloped the body slowly melted into the flesh, causing the destroyed tissues to regenerate at a rate visible to the naked eye.

However, after those three drops of golden blood entered Xiao Yechen's body, they seemed to melt and disappeared in an instant, as if they had never appeared.

……

Long Lake Town, Town Mayor's Building.

Taurrell kept moving around the room, his face full of anxiety, and the mayor stood aside with a flattering look on his face. Lagras sat in his chair, knuckles pounding on the table.

Looking at Taurrell, who kept dangling in front of him, Lagras frowned and said, "Taurrell, don't go any more, sit down and be quiet!" ”

Tao Ruier shook his hands with each other, kept shaking, and said anxiously: "How can you let me be quiet, Your Majesty asked us to protect the dwarves, but they have all gone to the Lonely Mountain for 5 days and have not returned, I really suspect that they have ...... Already dead inside! ”

"Don't worry, Father just told us to protect them from the orcs, and didn't say that we must keep them safe. After all, in the lonely mountain, in front of Smaug, no one can guarantee 100% safety. ”

Legolas took a sip of the tea on the table, frowned slightly, and said, "Wait two more days, if we don't wait for them to come back, we will withdraw to the Forest Kingdom!" ”

"But ......"

"No, Smaug is still in the lonely mountain, this time the dwarves have awakened it by entering Irub, this place may face Smaug's trampling at any time, I must ensure the safety of you and your soldiers!"

A firm and unquestionable tone came out of Legolas's mouth, and it seemed completely non-negotiable. In Legolas's heart, Xiao Yechen and his party had already been sentenced to death, after all, 3 days had passed since hearing Smaug's roar that day, and the chance of surviving was almost zero.

If it weren't for the care of Taurrell's emotions, yesterday, Legolas would have wanted to go home!

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Suddenly, a figure rushed in through the doorway. Everyone looked up, but it was Alfred gasping for breath and shouting in surprise: "Return...... It's back! They're back! ”

"Coming back?! Who's back? Taurrell asked expectantly.

"Yes...... It's the dwarves, the dwarves are back! Now it's on the lake! ”

When Legolas heard this, a gleam crossed his eyes, he got up and picked up his weapon, and walked towards the door: "Let's go, let's take a look!" ”

……

The center of the town.

Thorin and his dwarves stood in the middle of the square, surrounded by countless residents, bustling with each other, their eyes glancing at the dwarves from time to time.

Suddenly, the crowd crowded, and the townspeople moved out of the way, and the elven prince Legolas walked in with Taurrell and a team of elven guards, followed by the mayor of the town and Alfred.

Seeing that all the dwarves were sad, Legolas came to Thorin and asked directly, "What's wrong, did you fail?" ”

“……”

Seeing that Thorin lowered his head and didn't speak, Legolas's heart sank, and he frowned and asked again, "Xiao, why didn't he come back with you?" ”

However, it was okay that he didn't ask, as soon as this question came out, several dwarves such as Fili and Chili suddenly turned red, and said with a crying voice: "Xiao ...... Mr. Xiao, he can't come back! ”

"What? Can't come back! Tell me what's going on! Legolas grabbed Bahrain by the collar and asked in a low voice. In his heart, Xiao Yechen is a good friend, and when he heard this news, he was inevitably a little shocked!

When Bahrain was caught, he was not angry, but only told them what had happened on the lonely mountain with red eyes.

That day, Xiao Yechen entered the underground palace alone, and in less than an hour, there was a vibration from the entire lonely mountain, followed by a dragon roar.

They knew that Smaug had woken up!

However, it didn't take long for the movement to disappear, and they didn't know what was going on inside! The only thing I can do is wait, until today, 3 days have passed, and I haven't seen Xiao Yechen come out.

According to Xiao Yechen's instructions before, as soon as the 3 days passed, they had to leave Irubi!

During this period, the dwarves also wanted to go in and have a look, but thinking that Smaug had woken up, and Xiao Yechen had not come out for so many days, in their hearts, Xiao Yechen was probably more than lucky, and if they went in again, if they annoyed Smaug, it was likely to bring a devastating disaster.

And Xiao Yechen's words have always echoed in Suorin's heart, he has no descendants, he can't take risks. Smaug had just fallen silent, and he could no longer be disturbed, and although he still had a trace of fantasy in his heart, he did not dare to go in to verify it. As soon as the time came, they left the lonely mountain full of slumps, and in the end, they did not go in to find out.

……

Lonely Mountain, Irubi, in a palace of endless riches.

A dragon corpse more than 100 meters long was lying on the ground, exuding a faint coercion around it, next to the corpse, there was a pool of blood with a diameter of five or six meters, the blood gas was scattered throughout the temple, and the air was filled with a smell of sulfuric acid.

It wasn't really sulfuric acid, it was the smell of the blood of the fiery dragon Smaug. It is only because of the nature of its blood that it emits this peculiar smell.

It's a strange scene, a quiet palace, huge dragon corpses, endless gold jewels, scraps of flesh and scales everywhere on the ground, and pools of blood that exude blood

Suddenly, "Ding Dong-"

The sound of something falling into the water resounded in the main hall, breaking the silence of the palace, and in the pool of blood next to the corpse, a figure was slowly emerging.
