The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 221 The First Hall
In the middle of the night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and a gust of night wind blew by, and the green fir bushes and tall birch forests swayed with the wind, making a burst of rustling sound.

The dilapidated and open east gate of Moria revealed a darkness deeper than the night. At this moment, more than 20 pairs of eyes were secretly hiding around, staring at the movement deep in the gate. These people arrived here during the day. Allen et al.

Since no one can guarantee whether the half-orcs entrenched in Moria will suddenly become interested, step out of the dark gate to take a look at the beautiful scenery of Mirror Lake, or take a look at the stone pillars worshiped by Durin dwarves. Take a pee.

Therefore, in order to prevent the enemy from discovering his team after they came out of Moria, Allen arranged for at least one-third of his men to guard the gate.

The other third are hidden on top of tall trees, or in the jungle on the hillside, constantly monitoring the surrounding environment, in case there are half-orcs coming from other directions, so there is no accident.

The other one-third of the subordinates rested and replaced the comrades who were on duty after the specified time.

When Allen and his party walked along the jungle on the bank of the Silver Vein River and reached the Dark Valley with difficulty, the sky was already approaching evening. At this time, the shadows of the three peaks enveloped the Dark Valley, making the environment of the entire valley a blur. Very dark.

Allen looked at the current time, and thought about the habit of the orcs coming out at night. He felt that now is not the best time to enter Moria. The best time is of course tomorrow morning. Some orcs should be sleeping.

Then he divided his personal guards into three parts and began to monitor the dark valley.

And Allen himself used the special power of the elf cloak to hide himself in a dense grass on the south slope of the east gate of Moria.

At this time, he missed his hobbit friend a little bit. If Bilbo Baggins was here, he only needed to put on the ring and go in for a walk, and he could basically 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 Baradur stared at him with the Palantir spar. If he finds the Supreme Lord of the Rings, then the entire Shire will face threats hidden in the dark , and Bilbo's life will also be in great danger.

Even if Sauron could not muster a huge army in Eriador, those Nazgul riding on the ferocious beasts could come to Hobbiton at any time, relying on the fragile far door of Bag End, Such a dark evil cannot be stopped at all.

Trouble is just a little bit more troublesome. Allen would rather be more careful than to cause such a big trouble for his friends and the temporarily peaceful Middle-earth.

"I've fought enough of this battle. I fight every day. I don't have much to eat. I didn't have enough to eat yesterday. What about you, Gebal?"

"I don't have either. There's not much food on the second floor. I really curse that damn Fimble. Since he came back, there has never been a safe life here."

"Okay, okay, save your energy, there may be rabbits and mice looking for food in the forest at this time of year, if you can catch a few, the delicious flesh and blood will be enough to fill the stomachs of the three of us. "

A harsh noise and clumsy footsteps came from the dark gate, and Alan who was thinking was awakened immediately. Knowing that there was an accident, he tightened the cloak on his body again, and after confirming that he was in a concealed state, he will His gaze returned to the door.

After a while, three low-profile half-orcs with gray complexion appeared under the moonlight. They used a specious common language, complained about their dissatisfaction with life, and then walked along the damaged road at the gate, quickly walked towards the bottom of the valley.

"Sharago, you often stay by the boss's side, when do you think this fight will end?"

"Ha, want it to end, unless that damned damned Fimble dies right away, there's still time to go."

"I heard that Fimble seems to have escaped from Orc Town, and was directly expelled by the humans there. It's really shameful, but that guy also hired a lot of buddies along the way, and there are a few big One, otherwise there is no capital to challenge our boss."

"You can't say that. When you followed the boss of Azog, Fimble's status was higher. If you let him accept the leadership of the boss now, he must not be willing."

"Stop making noise, it's time to scare the rabbits away."

With a harsh low shout, the orc's voice also stopped abruptly.

After waiting for a while, Allen greeted the two Twilight Knights around him, and followed them quietly. He didn't want to kill these three guys at the gate. The orcs had the same plans as them.

Therefore, Allen chose to wait. Anyway, the field of vision here is extremely wide, and the three orcs did not escape his monitoring

Under the cover of the elven cloak, the three of Allen wore specially treated rune plate armor, and moved quickly and silently in the forest. Among the grass and trees, they became dark green shadows. Under the starlight, A dark silvery light sheltered them.

And the three half-orcs who were staring at the bottom of the valley looking for their prey didn't realize that there were three tall figures staring at them.

After 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 strings of "Shua, Shua, Shua", three dirty lives ended in this beautiful valley middle.

If he hadn't heard the words between them, Alan might still consider letting the three orcs go because he was worried about scaring the snake.

But the situation is different now. The half-orcs entrenched in Moria are obviously divided into two factions, and they are still fighting endlessly for the position of the boss. Under such circumstances, it is really normal for a few half-orcs to die .

Relying on the management ability and lifestyle of these guys, even if the two bosses get together to calculate carefully, they can't figure out where their younger brother died.

As for the authenticity of the information, let's not mention that half-orcs usually don't have the courage to die, and come to play with their own lives to please the king. A few years ago, Allen did defeat a group of enemies in the town of half-orcs.

Although he couldn't remember the name of Fimble, the enemy leader who ruled the orc town at that time did not die there, but ran away with an elite.

Allen knew this, and then the information matched, 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 didn't have the time or the leisure to torture the three orcs, and who could guarantee whether their words were true?
It's better to rely on one's own ability and slowly advance towards the depths of Moria.

During the thousands of years of construction by the Durin dwarves, Moria's terrain was extremely complex, and there were so many floors that even Ori and Oin couldn't guarantee that they knew 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 gate, dispelling most of the darkness, but shadows still occupy a considerable position. For example, the warning room on the south side of the hall for monitoring the gate is in absolute darkness.

When light and music filled Moria, there would definitely be some heavily armed Durin dwarves guarding this wide security room, always on guard against others sneaking in through the gate, but now there are more than [-] people occupying this place. A gray-skinned half-orc.

If it was a few years ago, or when Sauron's order arrived in Moria, the number of orcs in the guard room should at least be several times as many as it is now.

But when Mordor fell silent and Sauron did not give further orders, the orcs entrenched in Moria continued to fight, and the troops in the guard room were also drawn a lot.

The Balrog, who was regarded as a god by most half-orcs, was sleeping in the deep darkness, and he didn't bother to care about the trivial matters among these scumbags. In his opinion, it didn't make any difference who was the boss.

And the specific situation in the first hall has long been clearly seen by Allen with his ability. He took the most powerful Twilight Knight under his command, and took advantage of the short time when the half-orcs changed shifts from day to night to walk through the arch. Advance quietly in the darkness on the south side, and sneak into the first hall that is gradually brightening with the help of the cloak.

After that, Allen did not immediately clean up the half-orcs in the warning room. Instead, he used the thick stone pillars in the hall to hide his figure, and led his men around the dark stone wall in the north, and came to the first place. The passage on the west side of the first hall.

Continuing forward from here is a wide staircase leading directly to the Khazadum Bridge connecting the second hall.

But Allen didn't go deep here, but left four Twilight Knights here to watch, then turned 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 troops. Naturally, guarding the west passage of the first hall is to prevent the enemy from coming and bumping into the next battle scene, or which one The half-orc hiding in the dark took off from here, thus revealing his whereabouts.

At this time, the half-orcs in the security room had no idea of ​​their future fate, and they were even sleeping soundly because of their habit of hiding at night, only the two half-orcs kept their eyes open reluctantly, They chatted one after another.

"Tell me, why haven't the three guys who went out yesterday come back? They promised to bring us some rabbits back."

"Hmph, maybe I had a good time eating yesterday, so I can just find a place to fall asleep, don't worry, they won't even think about going back if they don't do us any favors."

"What are you two scumbags talking about, watch the gate for me, you know? When those three guys come back, I'll share with you."

A burst of indistinct yelling sounded from the mouth of the largest orc in the room, followed by a sound of snoring, and the voices in the warning room stopped.

And the battle broke out suddenly at this moment, "whoosh" and "whoosh" two fast-flying arrows passed through the window of the warning room, piercing through the two half-orcs who were looking at the gate passage.

Allen, who had already been prepared for this, quickly pushed open the false wooden door of the warning room and rushed in. With a flash of silver light in the darkness, Allen swung his knife and directly killed the one closest to him. half-orc.

The six twilight knights who rushed into the security room after Allen rushed towards the half-orcs lying in the house with their swords and shields, and the remaining two were holding Noldor rune bows. , to prevent the orcs from escaping from the window or the gate.

The running footsteps, the wailing of death, and the sound of weapons cutting bones woke up all the half-orcs from their sleep. Even in the confused state of just waking up, some half-orcs reacted quite quickly. While showing a fierce look in his eyes, he immediately picked up the weapon beside him, and stalked the uninvited guest.

Especially the half-orc captain who berated the guard just now. After waking up his subordinates loudly, he rushed towards Allen with a big stick in his hand, and then his neck was cut off by the shining knife light, pitch black Blood spurted from the slumped corpse.

Whether it's Snaga or Uruk, the vast majority of half-orcs can't hold a move in front of Allen, and this is on the premise that he doesn't cast magic.

And with the death of the captain, those half-orcs who were screaming just now quickly showed a look of fear on their faces, and began to use their dexterous short legs and sharp claws to climb around on the dark wall of the warning room. Crawl, looking for a chance to escape.

But this kind of behavior is obviously useless. No matter how fast they climbed, they couldn't hide from the sharp eyes of the Twilight Knight, and were quickly shot down by cone-headed arrows.

And this battle was over from the moment Allen rushed into the security room to the death of all the orcs, and it was over within 3 minutes. Most of the elf cloaks are clean.

And as the battle in the warning room ended, several short wailings also sounded from the west side of the first hall. These dead orcs, whether they were the secret sentinels placed by the enemy, or happened to be when Allen went around After leaving the security room, they had already lost the opportunity to report to their boss.

After careful consideration, Alan couldn't possibly give them this chance. Except for the window on the high east side, there are only two passages in the first hall, all of which have been guarded by Alan's personal guards.

Afterwards, all Allen's subordinates guarding the gate, together with the three dwarves, entered the first hall, and they needed to make more detailed plans for their next actions.

　In the movie, the half-orcs all ran away when they saw the Balrog, but in the original book, whether the half-orcs or the ogre, they are actually subordinates of the Balrog, or the relationship between the two parties is more similar to that of the gods. With believers, I am following the setting of the original book
