It was late at night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. A gust of night wind blew by, and the green fir bushes and tall birch trees swayed with the wind, making bursts of rustling sounds.
Moria's dilapidated and open east gate revealed a darkness that was deeper than night. More than twenty pairs of eyes were secretly lurking around at the moment, staring closely at the movement deep inside the gate. These people arrived here during the day.
The Allen et al.
Because no one can guarantee that the orcs entrenched in Moria will suddenly become interested in walking out of the dark door to take a look at the beautiful scenery of the Mirror Lake, or to admire the stone pillars worshiped by the Durin dwarves.
Soak in urine.
Therefore, in order to prevent the enemy from discovering his team after coming out of Moria, Allen arranged for at least one-third of his men to guard the gate.
The other third is hidden in tall trees or in the jungle on the hillside, constantly monitoring the surrounding environment to prevent orcs from coming from other directions and causing any unexpected situations.
The other third of the men are resting and replacing their comrades on duty after the specified time.
When Allen and his party arrived at the Dark Valley along the jungle on the banks of the Silver Vein River, it was already approaching dusk. At this time, the shadows of the three peaks enveloped the Dark Valley, making the entire valley environment change.
Very dim.
Allen looked at the current time, and then thought about the habit of the orcs to stay in the day and come out at night, and felt that now is not the best time to enter Moria. The best time is of course tomorrow morning. At that time, there will be no danger.
Some of the orcs should be sleeping.
Then he divided his personal guards into three parts and began to monitor the Dark Creek Valley.
Allen himself used the special power of the elf cloak to hide himself in a dense grass on the hillside south of the east gate of Moria.
At this time, he missed his hobbit friends. If Bilbo Baggins were here, he would just put on the ring and walk around, and basically he could figure out everything inside.
Don't take it too easy.
But after careful consideration, Allen gave up this plan.
God knows if Sauron in the Tower of Barad-dûr is keeping an eye on him with the Palantir Crystal. If he discovers the traces of the Supreme Ring, then the entire Shire will face threats hidden in the dark.
, and Bilbo's life will also face great danger.
Even though Sauron could not gather a huge army in Eriador, the Nazgûl riding ferocious beasts could come to Hobbiton at any time, relying on the fragile far gate of Bag End.
There is no way to stop such dark evil.
Trouble is just a little trouble. Allen would rather be cautious than cause such big trouble to his friends and the temporarily peaceful Middle-earth.
"I've really had enough of this battle. I fight every day and I don't have much to eat. I didn't have enough to eat yesterday. What about you, Gebar?"
"Neither do I, and there isn't much food on the second floor. I really curse that damn Fimbull. Ever since he came back, there has never been peace here again."
"Okay, okay, save your energy. There may be rabbits and mice looking for food in the forest at this time of the year. If we can catch a few, the delicious flesh and blood will be enough to fill the bellies of the three of us.
"
A burst of harsh noises and heavy footsteps came from the dark door, which immediately woke up Allen who was thinking. Knowing that something unexpected had happened, he tightened his cloak again, and after confirming that he was in a hidden state, he
His eyes were focused on the door again.
After a while, three short orcs with gray skin appeared under the moonlight. They complained about their dissatisfaction with life in a specious common language, and then walked quickly along the damaged road at the gate.
Walking towards the bottom of the valley.
"Sarago, you often stay by the boss's side. When do you think this fight will end?"
"Ha, if we want to end it, unless that abominable and cursed Fimbull dies immediately, there will still be time for chaos."
"I heard that Fimbull seemed to have escaped from the Orc Town, and was directly expelled by the humans there. It was really embarrassing, but that guy also collected a lot of guys along the way, and there were a few big ones.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t have the capital to challenge our boss.”
"You can't say that. When I followed Boss Azog, Fimbre's status was higher. If you ask him to accept the leadership of Boss now, he will definitely be unwilling."
"Stop making noise, it's time to scare away the rabbits."
With a harsh low sound, the orc's voice stopped abruptly.
After waiting for a while, Allen casually called to the two Twilight Knights beside him and followed him quietly. He didn't want to kill these three guys at the gate. Who knew if there were other half-men behind him?
The orcs have the same plan as them.
Therefore, Allen chose to wait. Anyway, the view here was extremely wide, and the three orcs did not escape his surveillance.
Under the protection of the elf cloak, the three of Allen wore specially processed sigil plate armor and moved quickly and silently in the forest. Among the vegetation, they became dark green shadows. Under the starlight,
Dark silver light sheltered them.
The three orcs, who were staring at the bottom of the valley in search of prey, did not realize that there were three tall figures staring closely at them.
After a simple communication with hand gestures, Allen took out his bow and arrow from behind and aimed at the enemy in front of him. With three string sounds of "swish, swish, swish", three dirty lives ended in this beautiful valley.
middle.
If he hadn't heard the words between them, Allen might have considered letting the three orcs go because he was worried about alerting others.
But the situation now is different. The orcs entrenched in Moria are obviously divided into two factions, and they are still fighting for the position of the boss. In this case, it is really normal for a few orcs to die.
.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Relying on the management skills and lifestyle of these guys, even if the two bosses come together to make a careful total, they can't figure out where their younger brother died.
As for the authenticity of the information, let’s not mention that orcs usually don’t have the courage to die, so they would play with their own lives and invite you into the urn. A few years ago, Allen did defeat a group of enemies in Orc Town.
Although he could not recall the name Fimbre, the enemy leader who ruled the Orc town at that time did not die there, but ran away with an elite force.
Allen knew this, and then the information was correct, and it was very beneficial to his next plan.
As for why the three orcs were not left behind to press for some information, Allen did not have the time or leisure to torture the three orcs, and who could guarantee whether their words were true?
It is better to rely on your own abilities and slowly push deeper into Moria.
...
After thousands of years of construction by the Durin dwarves, the terrain of Moria is extremely complex and has many layers. Even Orui and Oin cannot guarantee that they know the locations of all the halls.
But after entering from the east gate, it must be the first hall of Moria, which is the first hall opened by Durin I.
Sunlight will shine in from the window at the top of the door, dispelling most of the darkness, but shadows still occupy a large position. For example, the security room located on the south side of the hall for monitoring the door is in absolute darkness.
When Moria is filled with light and music, there will definitely be some well-armed Durin dwarves guarding this spacious guard room, always on guard against others sneaking in through the gate, but now there are more than twenty people occupying this place.
A gray-skinned half-orc.
If it had been a few years ago, or when Sauron's order arrived in Moria, the number of orcs in the guard room would have been at least several times what it is now.
But when Mordor fell silent and Sauron did not issue further orders, the orcs entrenched in Moria began to fight continuously, and a lot of troops in the guard room were also mobilized.
The Balrog, who is regarded as a god by most of the orcs, is sleeping in the deep darkness and is too lazy to pay attention to the trivial matters among these scum. In his opinion, there is no difference at all about who is the boss.
The specific situation in the first hall has been clearly seen by Allen with his ability. He took the most powerful Twilight Knight under his command and used the short time when the orcs changed shifts during the day and night, from the arch.
He moved forward quietly in the darkness on the south side, using the cover of his cloak to sneak into the first hall, which was gradually getting brighter.
After that, Allen did not clear out the orcs in the guard room immediately. Instead, he used the thick stone pillars in the hall to hide his figure, and led his men all the way around the dark stone wall in the north, and came to the third place.
The passage on the west side of the hall.
Continuing forward from here, there is a wide staircase that leads directly to the Khazad-dum Bridge that connects to the second hall.
However, Allen would not go deep here. Instead, he left four Twilight Knights here to watch, then turned around and walked towards the security room behind him.
In any case, he needs to completely control the first hall to ensure the retreat of his large forces, and guarding the west passage of the first hall is naturally to avoid the enemy arriving by chance and bumping into the next battle scene, or which one.
The orc hiding in the dark took off his clothes here, thus letting his whereabouts leak.
At this time, the orcs in the guard room had no idea of their next fate. They were even sleeping soundly because of their habit of staying up day and night. Only two orcs opened their reluctant eyes.
They were chatting with each other.
"Tell me, why haven't the three guys who went out yesterday come back yet? They promised to bring us some rabbits back."
"Hmph, maybe they had a good time yesterday and just found a place to fall asleep. Don't worry, they won't even think about going back if they don't give us any benefits."
"What are you two scum talking about? Just watch the door carefully, okay? When those three guys come back, I'll give you some..."
A burst of indistinct yelling came from the mouth of the largest orc in the room, followed by a burst of snoring, and the voices in the guard room stopped.
The battle suddenly broke out at this moment. "Whoosh" and "whoosh", two rapidly flying arrows passed through the window of the guard room and penetrated the two orcs who had their eyes on the doorway.
Allen, who was already prepared for this, quickly pushed open the ajar wooden door of the guard room and rushed in. With a flash of silver light in the darkness, Allen swung his sword and killed the one closest to him.
Half-orc.
The six Twilight Knights who followed Allen into the guard room waved their swords and shields and rushed towards the orcs lying around the room. The remaining two were holding Noldor sigil bows.
, to guard against orcs escaping from the window or door.
The running footsteps, the wails of death, and the sound of weapons chopping bones woke up all the orcs from their sleep. Even in the confused state of just waking up, the reaction of some orcs was quite fast.
With a fierce look in his eyes, he immediately picked up the weapon beside him and charged towards the uninvited guest.
Especially the half-orc captain who just scolded the guards. After waking up his subordinates loudly, he rushed towards Allen with the big stick in his hand, and then his neck was cut off by the shining sword light as soon as he met.
Blood spurted out from the body that collapsed on the ground.
Whether it's Snaga or Uruk, most of the orcs can't stand a single move in front of Allen, and that's assuming he doesn't cast magic.
With the death of the captain, the orcs who had been screaming just now had a look of fear on their faces, and began to use their dexterous short legs and sharp claws to climb around on the dark walls of the guard room.
Crawling, looking for opportunities to escape.
But this behavior was obviously useless. No matter how fast they climbed, they could not escape the sharp eyes of the Twilight Knight, and they were quickly shot down by cone-headed arrows.
And this battle ended in less than three minutes from Allen rushing into the guard room to the death of all the orcs. The enemy was completely wiped out, and there were no casualties on our side, even the Twilight Knights were behind them.
Most of the elf cloaks are also clean.
And as the battle in the guard room ended, several short whines also sounded from the west side of the first hall. These dead orcs, whether they were secret sentries placed by the enemy, or happened to be around when Allen was going around.
After leaving the security room, I had already lost the opportunity to report to my boss.
After careful consideration, Allen could not give them this opportunity. Except for the high window on the east side, there were only two passages in the first hall, all of which were already guarded by Allen's personal guards.
Subsequently, all of Allen's men guarding the gate and the three dwarves entered the first hall. They needed to make more detailed plans for their next actions.
