Chapter 110: Woodland Kingdom
"Meet the enemy!"
Under the threat of life and death, the dwarves came to their senses and raised their weapons one after another.
"Filthy creatures of darkness!" Shalin directly wielded the giant hammer and met a spider, and with a snap, the juice burst open, splashing himself.
"Don't mess around! Take care to protect travelers! Sharda reminded as she battled with a spider.
"I'm here! I'm invincible! "Shalin has already smashed the third spider, and these vicious things are indeed as weak as paper paste in front of Sharin.
But there were too many of them, as if the spiders of the entire forest had swarmed in, and the hairy arthropods crowded among the twisted trunks of the trees, attacking the dwarves one after another.
"Is there any fire?" Thorin yelled, "It's too many, we've got to push them back!" β
"I've got it here." Bahrain hurriedly pulled out a flint, and there was no shortage of flints in the jungle, and he quickly gathered a pile of dead branches and leaves, and was about to rub the flint to ignite them.
Suddenly, an arrow flew through a crack in the dense forest, and accurately struck the flint in Balin's hand.
"Watch out for the Dark Arrow!" Bahrain's hand shook and hurriedly reminded loudly.
The rest of the dwarves were suddenly awe-inspiring, and their attention was focused on all directions, only to see that arrows were constantly being shot from the depths of the dense forest, but the targets of those arrows were not dwarves, but spiders entrenched in the surroundings.
Each arrow pierced between the spider's eight eyes, taking their life with them.
With such precision and speed, the spiders quickly retreated.
"Elves!" Thorin's face was gloomy, not only did he not let down his guard, but he clenched his weapon even more, beckoning everyone to set up their formation.
"Dwarves, are you trying to burn down the jungle?"
A clear voice came from the dense forest, and then a series of dexterous figures jumped over the branches, and in a matter of seconds, they surrounded the dwarves, and their bows and arrows were full, aiming at the dwarves' vital points.
Tang Sen noticed that most of these elves were red-haired, which was a very distinguishable feature, and the red-haired elves were basically Sylvan elves, not only had they never seen the Twin Sacred Trees, but they rarely even crossed the Misty Mountains.
The world calls these elves "wood elves".
Well, the personality is more irritable than the elves of other races.
And the owner of the voice just now, who was late at this time, was dressed in delicate armor, with a tall figure, long silky silver hair, and a handsome face that could be regarded as one in a million even among elves.
"Traveler from afar, the King of the Woodlands has been waiting for you for a long time, and has sent us to meet you." The silver-haired elf saw Townsend standing out among the dwarves at a glance, and gave a slight salute.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Elven Prince Legolas." Townsend responded.
"You know me?" The elf named Legolas was surprised.
He hadn't left the Great Jungle yet, and he didn't have much of a reputation on the continent, so it seemed to him that it was a pleasure for this traveler valued by the Elven King to know his name.
Townsend smiled and didn't answer the question, just said, "We also had one of our companions who was taken away by the spiders. β
"Companion?" Legolas glanced at the dwarves with disgust, "Traveler, I don't mean to offend, but never be a companion to the dwarves, they have nothing but greed in their nature. β
"Shut your mouth, elf! Otherwise, I'll tear that-like mouth apart! The irascible Sharda shouted directly.
"You think I won't kill dwarves?" Legolas raised his eyebrows, and the bow and arrow in his hand were directly full: "Actually, I'd be happy to do it!" β
"Come on!" Sharda is not afraid of the other party's threat at all, he is now an undead dwarf, he believes that even if he is against a few arrows, he can smash the opponent's knees!
"Stop." Townsend stopped the scene: "Shalda, don't disturb me to speak. β
He looked at Legolas again, "Could it be that the Woodland Kingdom treats its guests like this?" β
"These filthy things aren't guests." Legolas said this, but put away his bow and beckoned back, and a dwarf wrapped tightly in spider silk was rudely thrown.
"I don't need your thanks, for the sake of the traveler, you can enter the Woodland Kingdom... Of course, it's best to wash it before going in. β
"You-" The dwarves tried to curse angrily, but at the sight of Tang Sen's serious eyes, they finally stopped in indignation.
The elves of the Great Jungle are different from Rivendell's, they are more irritable, and they have a real feud with the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.
Townsend is not interested in dissolving their hatred, and the dwarves are criticized for their greed, but it is undeniable that they are also the easiest to help themselves because of this.
He can use even the most vicious pirates, let alone dwarves.
And the elves, anyway, Tang Sen didn't expect them to be loyal to him, and if he could borrow their combat power, he would already have achieved his goal.
After all, the elves are all archers, and not only that, but the elves' strength is not weaker than that of the dwarves, and even because they have no weight themselves, they move more lightly.
It can be said that the elves are the most blessed race in Middle-earth, and Iluvita has endowed them with eternal lifespan, strong combat power, and natural beauty, giving them the confidence to be proud of other races, even if they die unexpectedly, they only lose their bodies, and their souls will go to Valinor to enjoy eternity.
Of course, in the eyes of the Veras, humans are the ones most favored by Iluvita, and they have the most precious gift of allβthey are destined to die.
With the elves leading the way, a group of people successfully reached the northern part of the Great Dense Forest, where the woodland kingdom established by the Wood Elves was located.
The gate of the Woodland Kingdom is erected in the middle of a low mountain, which is extremely beautiful, and through the gate, it is a huge, shocking space.
The mountain was completely hollowed out, and countless huge columns held up the entire space, and the woodland kingdom was much darker than the brightness of Rivendell, but it was just as beautiful as the elves.
Following the stone bridge and steps deeper into the woodland kingdom until the central hall, Townsend finally saw the throne with its huge antlers, and the legendary Elven King sitting lazily on the throne.
It was a face that was enough to suffocate people.
"When I heard the news from the Grey Wizard, I thought it was a joke."
The Elven King slowly got up and said, "Until I found that the power of darkness was more active than ever, and the spiders were pouring into the Great Dense Forest from the south, and in the Misty Mountain Range, an army had begun to trek towards the Lonely Mountain. β
"So, traveler from afar, did you really find the One Ring?"
"And, you're going to deal with the dragon?"
