Chapter 48 Taking the bait

Fimbre brought a few close guards, followed the guidance of his senses, and emerged from a cave in the valley. From a high place, he saw a flag floating in the valley at a glance.

Fimbull was very familiar with this flag. In the sun, a crown sewn with gold threads and three stars composed of fine white gemstones on the top of its head shone brightly on a green background flag.

The stars composed of white gemstones emitted a dazzling light under the reflection of the sun, which stung Fimbull's eyes full of desire.

The pain made the excited half-orc calm down a little, and he became a little entangled. However, this strange thought was quickly suppressed by greed, and his eyes were once again occupied by desire.

Fimbull didn't know what was guiding him. What he knew was that what he wanted must be in the valley below the mountain.

And among the team of more than ninety people down the valley, someone must have this extremely precious treasure, and he is bound to get it now.

But he had to make some plans, be steady, and take his time. That flag left a deep impression on him. Not only that, he was one of the few people in the orcs who had good brains.

With such a strong desire, he carefully searched the human team, and only after confirming that the tall figure of the skin-changer was not found, he felt at ease.

So far, Allen's plan is considered a complete success. The "bait" he prepared for Fimbull is extremely hard and will definitely knock out the orc's mouth full of rotten teeth.

But Fimbre, who had been completely seduced by the Supreme Lord of the Rings, could no longer care too much. After watching the group of humans enter the cave at the main entrance of the Orcs, he immediately turned around and returned to the Orc town with his personal guards.

among.

He will summon all his strength to catch up with that group of humans tonight, kill them, and get the treasure that haunts him from their corpses, although he doesn't even know what it is.

.

"By the way, I should call the wargs living around here and ask them to help me."

"No, what if they snatch my baby? No, I have to think about it again."

After giving the order to gather all the orcs, Fimbre sat on his throne and thought carefully.

Allen, who didn't know that he had been targeted, was carefully observing the cave where the team was staying. The passage at the entrance of the cave was actually about five meters long. Logically speaking, it was already very wide.

However, after walking through a passage of more than ten meters, the group came to the now wider cave.

There are many human traces here, there are strange pictures painted on the walls at unknown times, and there are even trenches on the ground that have been run by wheels, extending to the depths of the cave.

Presumably many caravans must have rested in this vast cave in the past years. Of course, it may be another case.

"This is definitely not a naturally formed cave. There is something unusual about the place De Sevi found."

This extremely wide cave gave Allen a very bad feeling. This feeling was somewhat similar to the last encounter in the front hall of Orc Town.

According to the records in Allen's mind, he has always been wary of all the caves in the Misty Mountains, always feeling that there are countless orcs squatting on the other side of the cave walls.

Allen's feeling was right. He didn't know whether to say that Desaiwei had excellent luck or Allen had extremely bad luck. It was actually not difficult to find a suitable place for nearly a hundred cavalry to camp in this valley.

But it must be a bit difficult to have strong defense at the same time.

In the entire valley, only the cave where Allen and his team are staying now meets this requirement, so Desaiwei was extremely lucky to find this place.

This cave is actually the main entrance of the Orc Town. It was specially opened by the dwarves in the past for their caravans to rest. However, after the decline of the dwarves, more people used this cave than humans.

In order to better harass humans, the Orcs who are entrenched here have opened a gate directly to the Orc Town. The repair of this cave is so wide, and it is convenient for the Orcs to swarm out from here to attack those who come from here.

Merchants passing through the valley.

Therefore, Allen's luck was also extremely bad. As a bait, he directly landed himself at the enemy's mouth.

However, after entering, Bilbo Baggins pulled out his little elf sword. There was no blue light on it, indicating that the power of the orcs had not yet been fully gathered, and everyone was still safe at this time.

Moreover, Allen can only rely on Bilbo Baggins' "Sting" that can issue early warning to orcs.

Of course, the small sword does not have this name now. Due to Allen's interference, Bilbo Baggins's weapon may have been stained with the enemy's blood only in that battle in the Misty Mountains.

In the subsequent journey of the expedition, whether it was from the Black Forest to the Lonely Mountain, or the battle of the Five Armies with tens of thousands of people, the Hobbit was well protected by Alan and Thorin II.

After that, Bilbo Baggins had a smooth journey, but he never encountered any decent battles, so Stinging stayed lonely in the exquisite scabbard and never killed any enemies again.

However, Alan would not let Bilbo Baggins, according to his original life trajectory, stay in Bag End in Hobbiton every day for decades and be regarded as a rich weirdo by his neighbors.

No matter what, Allen had to send people often to call Bilbo to come to Wilderness Town as a guest, or ask him to do something for him.

In Allen's imagination, there is already a troublesome thing that needs the help of this friend who owns the Supreme Lord of the Rings, but more opportunities and conditions are needed, and the time is not ripe now.

All the soldiers who followed Allen were fully aware of Allen's plan before setting off. With their rich experience, they did not need the king to give them any orders, and they had already begun to prepare for the battle silently.

At this time, they had taken the lead in placing the horses on the left side of the cave near the entrance, and tied them all to the big rocks they could find. They reinforced the ropes to prevent the horses from rioting and causing harm to their own people in the event of a battle.

unnecessary harm.

Afterwards, they began to help each other organize their armors, and some of them were also carefully checking the weapons they carried to avoid any unexpected situations during the battle.

Allen's good friend, Bilbo Baggins, had already built a bonfire and cooked dinner for nearly a hundred people.

His current identity is more like that of a cook accompanying the army than a pirate, but Alan believes that most of the chefs accompanying the army cannot have as good a cooking skill as Bilbo Baggins.

Bilbo Baggins, who has experienced so many dangers and even faced Smaug directly, has already developed the mentality to fight without changing his face.

After all, his equipment is indeed a bit too luxurious. In addition to the invulnerable mithril armor and the unparalleled sharp "Sting", he also has a full-level throwing skill, which is enough to protect his own safety in battle.

Even worse, there is the Supreme Lord of the Rings, which can make you invisible.

At this time, Bilbo Baggins was humming a pleasant song, frying and roasting a dozen sausages with an attractive luster with one hand, stirring the fragrant broth in the cauldron with the other, and was busy dancing.

.

The smoke from the bonfire and the water vapor from the tumbling broth flying high into the sky drifted out of the cave along the vents of the cave. Next to the fire were a large number of honey bread and some special snacks. I believe

Dinner will begin soon.

Bilbo's emotion even infected the surrounding soldiers, making the originally tense atmosphere in the cave become a little lighter.

Hermione went out with a few Twilight Knights. They were going to search the surroundings and make a show. If such an elite team didn't even make a show of searching, it would probably arouse the enemy's suspicion.

The gray-robed wizard Gandalf walked around the cave and found a place to sit down. He placed his cane and Gramdrin in a convenient place and smoked "

"Old Toby." He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around the cave, wondering what he was thinking.

"It's time to eat."

As Bilbo Baggins shouted, the sky gradually turned dark.

Allen, who was leaning against the wall after dinner, had been quietly observing the "thorn" that had been pulled out.

However, before the dagger could give any warning, the clear howls of wolves outside the cave began one after another. It seemed that it was not just Fimbull who was tempted by the Supreme Lord of the Rings.

As monsters bred from evil wolves and loyal subordinates of the Wolf King Sauron, how could these wargs not be attracted by the power of the Lord of the Rings? They and the orcs simply hit it off.

Especially at this time, this ring with its own consciousness has vaguely felt that its master is rising, and it also knows that as long as it is carried across this mountain range, the distance between it and its master will be too far.

By then, not only will its power be greatly reduced, but it will also be extremely difficult to return to Mordor and return to its master.

The Supreme Lord of the Rings is now in a very bad situation. Its current owner is a hobbit who is so strong-willed that even it can't do anything about it. The humans it once tried every means to seduce treat it like a snake or scorpion.

As a weak and helpless ring, it had a premonition that something was not going well. Just like more than three thousand years ago, it wildly exuded its charm to the surroundings.

Only creatures that are dark enough, evil enough, and smart enough can feel the fluctuations it emits.

It is making its last effort, trying hard to return to its master. In order to achieve this goal, it can no longer care about too much.

The horses that had already entered a resting state were the first to make a little commotion when they heard the howling of wolves. As war horses that had been on the battlefield for a long time, they quickly regained their composure under the comfort of the cavalry.

The soldiers who entered combat status in an instant grabbed the weapons around them and looked at Allen, waiting for the order to start the battle.

Several thoughts flashed through Allen's mind. Now that the wargs have taken the lead in attacking at the entrance of the cave, it is obvious where the orcs will appear from. There must be something in the walls of this cave.

Orc mechanism.

Considering this, Allen immediately issued an order to his personal guard captain.

"Hermion, go send out the signal, and take your men with you to block the entrance of the cave and don't let any enemies in. You will also command the Rhodok marksman."

Allen's plan this time was in itself a decoy play. When he came in, he specifically observed the entrance of the cave. Fifteen Rhodok sharpshooters carrying broad shields were enough to block the entrance.

In addition to cooperating with the Twilight Knight to cause damage to the enemy from a distance, they can also take out the broad shield behind them when the enemy is approaching, forming a shield wall at the entrance of the cave to continue to cover the Twilight Knight for shooting.

As long as there aren't too many enemies and they block for a certain amount of time, there's absolutely no problem.

The remaining soldiers, under Allen's order, formed a simple formation facing the depths of the cave. At the front of the formation was Allen, who was holding the Noldor Sigil Bow.

There is also a giant sword gleaming in the firelight stuck at his feet. As long as the enemy dares to approach, Allen will use it to chop the enemy into pieces.

Next to Allen was Gandalf, who was holding a sword and staff. He looked into the depths of the cave with a serious face and muttered something to himself.

After that, there were Swadian knights wearing sleeveless plate armor and giant helmets. They held two-handed swords and majestically guarded both sides of Allen, covering the mounted archers behind who were ready to shoot.

On the other side, under Allen's order, Hermione didn't hesitate at all, took the Twilight Knight and Rhodok Marksman, and quickly rushed to the door of the cave. At this time, the sound coming from there

The howling of wolves is getting closer and closer.

Just after Hermione led everyone out of the cave and lit the fireworks in his hands, countless eyes with green light appeared in the forest near the entrance.

Then dozens of rays of light took off one after another, and "Peng" "Peng" "Peng" exploded in the high air of the valley. After Gandalf's special preparation, the huge explosion began to echo in the valley.

Along with the loud noise, there was actually a "wow~~" sound coming from somewhere in the valley.

The large rays of light that exploded from the fireworks, accompanied by these sounds, sent a signal to Bandak, who had led the army into the valley, to march urgently. He would arrive within half an hour to support this place.

At the same time, this particularly bright light also illuminated the countless wolf shadows surrounding the entrance of the cave. In this short period of time, Horimion could not count the number of enemies in the distance.

But the Twilight Knight did not hesitate much. With a "shoot" command, nearly thirty arrows were shot at the nearby enemies. Under the deterrence of the fireworks, the wargs besieging the cave fell into a trap.

In a short period of confusion, nearly twenty wolves collapsed to the ground.

The screams they make before dying wake up their companions.

Hermione, who succeeded in the first blow, did not launch a second wave of shooting, but quickly retreated to the passage of the cave with his men, where the terrain was far easier to defend than outside.

At this time, Bilbo Baggins, who was standing behind Allen, the sting in his hand began to glow blue.

"Prepare."

Allen, who discovered this for the first time, shouted low, raised the Noldor Sigil Bow in his hand, and aimed at the depths of the cave under the light of the fire.
