Chapter 222 The Fight Between Orcs
"Now, we have successfully occupied the first hall without alarming the enemy, which is equivalent to having a successful start, and this is only the first step of the action. The next journey must not rely on strong attacks, because We are only here to take back part of the wealth occupied by the orcs, not really to take back Moria, which is still shrouded in darkness."

Speaking of which, Alan stopped his words, and looked at Dyne, Oyin, and Ori sitting beside him with a smile on his face. The next plan needed the help of the three of them, and there was still Do it quietly.

The three dwarves from Lonely Mountain were actually a little upset at this time, because Alan didn't arrange for them to participate in the battle that just happened.

This made the three of them feel that Alan looked down on them a little bit, and they thought that as the descendants of Durin, they should enter Moria immediately instead of waiting anxiously at the door.

Alan understands this feeling, but the dwarves' fighting style is too brave and direct. He is very worried that after the three dwarves enter the first hall, they will not be able to control their excitement, and they will directly guard against the occupants while shouting. The half-orcs in the room launched an attack, thus disrupting all his plans.

Moreover, secretly occupying the first hall is the most important part of this adventure. If it fails, it will definitely attract the attention of other half-orcs. Then the two groups of half-orcs who are fighting may be temporarily separated. Cooperate and target the enemies who broke in suddenly.

Even half-orcs who often fight with each other understand the truth of fighting against foreign enemies.

Then, at that time, Allen can only exit Moria and wait for other opportunities, or lead a group of people to climb through the Red Horn Gate with difficulty to find the Gate of Durin on the other side of the Misty Mountains, and it is not certain Can find it, not to mention having to face the terrifying underwater watcher, Alan is not sure that he can beat the guy covered in tentacles by himself.

If this happens, it will not only make previous efforts fall short, but also waste a lot of time.

So when faced with the request of the dwarves to join the war, Allen, relying on his status as the captain, strongly refused. It is normal for the dwarves to be upset.

"Hmph, occupying the first hall is not the most critical link, the important thing is to control the two sides of the bridge, which determines whether we can return to the first hall smoothly, and the half-orcs never care about it." , but put the troops in the warning room here, it's really stupid."

Oin made his suggestion angrily, but his face showed excitement as he spoke, because he will soon go deep into the hometown of the dwarves, the most glorious kingdom of the Durin clan, Kazadu m.

"As long as we cross the bridge and go through some steps, we will enter the second hall of the first valley, which is the hub of Kazadum, whether it is going to the third hall above or the second hall in the depths. All valleys pass through there, and as far as I know, there is an armory in the third valley, there must be a lot of weapons and equipment there, of course, the premise is that it has not been looted by orcs."

Ori slowly talked about his understanding of Moria.

"If we get nothing in the third valley, then we have to go up to the upper level, I think there may be more orcs waiting for us, because the dreaded Durin buster prefers I don't think even half-orcs are willing to enter the place that is entrenched in the depths and filled with fear."

As the two dwarves kept talking about the terrain of Moria, Allen also had a relatively shallow understanding of this lost kingdom.

There are at least seven floors going up from the second hall, and after reaching the seventh floor, it is close to the highest point of Moria. Most of the area there is bright, because the dwarves opened a lot of ventilation on the mountain. Well, sunlight can dispel most of the darkness.

And each floor has about two to four halls, which used to be the residence of dwarves in the past years, or a place to store precious items. To a certain extent, the higher the number of living floors, it also represents this. The higher the status of the dwarves, if you want to find some precious good things, the upper layer should be the focus of exploration.

And if you go all the way down from the second hall, it is the place where the dwarves dig mines, which is called the valley. As for how many valleys there are down, even Oyin and Ori can't tell, because who I don't know how deep the dwarves dug there.

And the extremely precious mithril is produced in the veins there.

As the biggest goal of Allen's trip, these special metals must be stored in the treasure house there, and many armors made of Mithril would logically be stored in the armory there after being built.

So far, the information about this kind of mountain kingdom seems to be quite clear.

But when Alan led a 12-member ranger team, stepped on the slippery ground with Oyin, and entered the extremely silent second hall, the information mentioned before seemed not so real.

Because the dwarves built each hall too majestic and towering, and the passages connecting each floor and each hall are also intricate, not to mention that the surrounding environment is shrouded in endless darkness.

Even Alan's once blessed eyes could only vaguely see the dark and bright walls around the hall here.

But the rooms opened on the walls are dark areas that cannot be penetrated.

At this time, Alan, who led the team, didn't think about searching those houses carefully. Just thinking about it, the half-orcs who rushed into Moria would not let go of any wealth in this place, even if they didn't want to. Live here.

Therefore, Allen led the people without wasting any time in these rooms, but tried their best to explore all the upward passages in the second hall.

All roads that exude a stench are listed by Allen as forbidden areas that cannot be entered, because they must be places where half-orcs are more active.

These dirty creatures are very good at polluting the air where they live.

Even if Alan didn't really see them with his eyes, relying on his not-so-sensitive sense of smell, he would definitely be able to lead the team to avoid most of the dangers.

On the other hand, Ouyin was exploring, staring at the surrounding environment with a pair of sparkling eyes, and never had any doubts about his steps.

It was as if he had actually lived in Khazad-dum.

The rangers following behind them walked lightly, holding bows and arrows in their hands, and vigilantly scanned the place the team had just passed, to avoid some half-orcs who didn't have long eyes suddenly popping out from a certain passage.

Of course, without Allen's order, it would be impossible for them to attack suddenly.

In the dark and unchanging environment, time seems to pass very slowly.

After a group of people explored in the dark for several hours, they walked about a few kilometers, and finally found an upward passage on the wall on the south side of the second hall, and it was not so disgusting.

After Oyin's confirmation, the barely legible text on both sides of the passage said that this road leads to the fifth floor, and the end point is Hall No.16. Now even Oyin, who recognized the text, could not I don't know what the sixteenth hall is for.

After thinking that there was no big problem with the passage in front of him, Allen drew out his long sword and made a very conspicuous mark on the left side of the passage.

There is no way, they have encountered too many similar passages along the way, if the marks cannot be recognized by them at a glance, then they will have to search bit by bit next time.

After making the mark, Allen did not hesitate at all, waved to the people behind him to signal them to follow, and then took big steps to climb up the intact steps, heading towards the upper level of Moria.

In fact, it took him a lot of time to capture the first hall. It is already afternoon. If he doesn't leave as soon as possible, most of the orcs will probably become active.

The sound of light footsteps echoed in the wide, upward passage. Allen, who was walking at the front of the team, was not walking very fast, and every time he walked, he would stick to the wall and listen to whether there was any traffic around him. Footsteps that do not belong to their own team.

And just when he was about to do this for the fifth time, there was a sudden movement in the air. At first, the sound was a bit noisy, as if countless people were walking around in chaotic steps, but soon, there was a sound in the air. It was no longer just the sound of footsteps.

It was more like countless rats shouting fiercely, with the sound of swords colliding among them. They didn't need to think about it, and they knew that they were about to encounter a fight between orcs.

The accident happened half a day after everyone left the first hall. Everyone heard the voice, and they all looked at Alan who was thinking.

This kind of waiting, which would have made people very anxious, lasted less than half a minute, and Allen took quick steps and galloped up the passage, not paying attention to the movement that occurred while running.

Now is a good time to move forward quickly! !
However, the battle of nearly two thousand half-orcs in the No.16 hall became more and more fierce. The tragic, painful, and joyful shouts echoed in the hall. Who would pay attention to a black beast that quietly moved out of the passage? What about the squad.

And a half-orc leader with a dark face is attracting most of the attention on the field. This is the black face, the leader of Moria at this time. Eight enemies in fine chain mail were fighting. His stature was as high as that of an average human being, and he was still wearing black armor covering his whole body.

On the other side of the hall, Fimble did not personally join the battle. He was born as a wolf cavalryman. Without the cooperation of a warg, his combat effectiveness is very weak. Compared with the tall half-orc on the opposite side, I am afraid The opponent can kill him with one move in the charge.

However, Fimble has a smarter brain than most half-orcs. At this time, his elite has held back the most powerful existence among the enemies, and a small army has begun to quietly circle around. In particular, the two cave trolls who were lying down and advancing slowly, their actions always reveal such a weird and funny look.

As long as you are not blind, you can definitely see such a thing. After the tall orc with a dark face knocked away the two enemies around him with a shield, the spear in his hand was like a poisonous snake. to the enemy near.

The spear was so heavy, the fine chain mail on the opponent's body, like a piece of paper without any defense, was completely smashed by the thick spear.

The mighty performance of the tall half-orc directly made the enemies around him look terrified and afraid to move forward, while he himself stared at a pair of cruel eyes like coal, searching for Fember's figure .

The incomparably cunning Fimble had already hid at this time, and of course it was impossible for him to let the enemy discover his tracks.

And after the half-orc leader searched to no avail, he opened his scarlet mouth and let out a terrifying laugh. The voice seemed to have some kind of spell, which stopped the fiercely fighting half-orcs.

Immediately afterwards, he issued an order in an extremely unpleasant voice, and then led his subordinates to retreat into the passage on the north side of Hall No.16.

Blackface didn't want to have an all-out fight with Fimble until his side had tamed the cave trolls, because even he wasn't sure about taking those two giant idiots head-on.

Fimble, who won the victory, did not leave immediately, but asked his subordinates to gather up the corpses on the ground, and the two cave trolls had already begun to feast on them. For them, as long as it was meat, it could be regarded as Food, nothing too particular.

It's not like a guy who has a good life some days, and he doesn't even want to eat mutton.

Not long after, Fimble, who had finished cleaning the battlefield, led his men to leave the place and entered the passage on the south side.

Obviously, Hall No.16 is currently the place where two groups of orcs are fighting, and it is the forefront of the battle. One of the two sides is worried about the existence of the cave troll, and the other is afraid of the powerful force on the opposite side, so they are unwilling to stay here.

And all of this was seen clearly by Alan who was hidden in a certain corner, until all the orcs in sight had left, and then Alan quietly lifted the elf cloak off his body.

On the other side, Oyin couldn't restrain his excitement for a long time, and said in a low trembling voice: "This... This is where the royal family of Durin lives."

Allen quickly covered Oyin's mouth, and the orcs' hearing was not weak. If they noticed the movement, the efforts of this period of time would be in vain.

Just because of Oyin's words, everyone stayed in place quietly for more than ten minutes. When it was really confirmed that there were no other creatures in the hall, Allen began to lead people in the No.16 hall where the silence was restored. exploring.

Since it is the place where the royal family of Durin lives, I am afraid there are still some good things. It is indeed worth spending some time to search carefully here.
