The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 39
The next morning, the Shire was on the road to Bree.

Riding on a horse, Allen, dressed as a ranger, is currently scouting the situation around the road. His duty is to be a scout, and he bears this part of the responsibility.

In fact, the road from the Shire to Bree is very safe, which is not to say that the powers of darkness are not interested here.

It is because of the existence of northern rangers here, they silently guard this paradise, so that humans and hobbits living here will be protected from the threat of evil minions.

They belonged to the Númenor clan. After the fall of the Kingdom of Aserdan, their leader, in order to preserve his limited power, no longer claimed his status as a king, but called himself the patriarch.

Afterwards, the patriarch did not re-establish the gathering point of his own people, but took the remaining people with him and became a wandering people interspersed with Eriador.

If Allen remembers correctly, most of them should be living in the area between the Cangquan River and the Xiangshui River at this time, which should be called the Hejiao Land, located in the south of the valley.

And this force, who is leading this force at this time, Allen is not clear, and there is no relevant record in his memory.

What Allen knew was that their current patriarch, the son of Arazon II, was also the future Emperor, King Elessa.

This ten-year-old boy, as the adopted son of the lord of Elrond, is now receiving shelter in the valley. His elf name is Estel.

Of course, he will have more names in the future, such as the "Strider" who is more familiar to the Shire people, or Aragorn who shines during the War of the Ring.

Estel should leave Glen when he was 20 years old. Perhaps this trip, Allen will have the opportunity to meet this boy who is bound to be great in the future and form a good relationship.

In fact, when Allen was investigating, he occasionally found traces of Aragon's tribe, the Northern Ranger.

But obviously, this team consisting of thirteen dwarves, two humans, and one hobbit did not arouse their interest.

Yes, Bilbo Baggins took part in the expedition in the end, and Alan had considerable faith in the hobbit.
In fact, Allen couldn't imagine how the inner thoughts of this newly grown Hobbit changed.

He could only speculate that, apart from the kindness of Bilbo Baggins, what played a role in this matter was Gandalf's extremely powerful ability to "traffick people".

In any case, when the hobbit caught up with the contract, Allen was relieved. After all, fate is unpredictable.

With a safe journey, the expedition team arrived at Bree within a few days. They did not stop here, but after replenishing some supplies, they set foot on the East-West Avenue to the Misty Mountains.

In fact, this road is far from being dangerous. Except for a few path-cutters who were hiding in the dark and were still picked out and killed by Allen, there were no surprises.

But even without the dangers, the journey is far from comfortable, especially for a hobbit.

Alan could see Bilbo Baggins' discomfort, and Alan thought that the hobbit might already be missing his cozy Bag End.

But Allen didn't take extra care of the hobbit. Allen knew that Mr. Baggins had to adapt to this kind of life, and he would certainly adapt.

However, for things like adventure, although you will see beautiful scenery on the road and thrilling stories will be left at the end, most of the time, it is just boring and rushing, and occasionally, it will happen that everyone is not happy. Like the accident.

This day was already the seventh day since the expedition team left Bree Town, and everyone camped on a flat land by the cliff.

This place is well chosen, the location is wide enough to accommodate the expedition team's personnel, horses and salutes, and there is only one passage, which is particularly easy to defend and safe.

But Alan, who was sitting by the campfire, always felt that something was wrong.

He always felt that he was a little terrified, but for a while, he couldn't figure out what was wrong, so he kept thinking.

Soon, a few strange noises came from a distance, startling the hobbit who was quietly feeding the horse.

Bilbo Baggins, who lacked any adventure experience, became nervous in an instant, and hurriedly asked everyone what the sound was?
After all, the two boys, Kili and Fili, were very young. They wanted to tease the nervous Mr. Baggins, and began to tell the horror of orcs.

Then they were quickly reprimanded by Thorin Oakenshield. Maybe Kili and Fili were too young and hadn't experienced many things. The hatred for half-orcs just stayed on the surface, not like those who were old. The dwarves, their hatred is so unforgettable.

Even some of the dwarves here participated in the Battle of Moria, and soon the old man Bahrain began to talk about the situation during that war.

This familiar scene finally reminded Alan of what he was worried about.

It was on this night that the expedition team was discovered by several wolf cavalry, and it didn't take long before Azog chased them endlessly.

Thinking of this, Allen knew that he was slow, because Thorin Oakenshield was already standing on the edge of the cliff and pretending to be aggressive.

In order not to disturb possible enemies, Allen quietly greeted Qili, who is good at using bows and arrows, and raised the Noldo composite bow in his hand. Qili obviously understood what Allen meant, and also took out his own Bow and arrow, followed Allen.

The people who were awake also noticed the strangeness of Alan and Qili, and they all cast questioning glances at Alan.

Allen signaled them to be quiet, and then with Kili, he quietly came behind a tree on the edge of the cliff.

He poked his head cautiously, looking towards the forest on the other side of the cliff, searching for enemies that might have appeared.

With just a glance, Allen, with the help of moonlight, saw two dark shadows on the opposite side.

Those were the two wolf cavalry who were watching this side. Although it was dark now, it was one or two hundred meters away from here.

But Allen can be sure that Thorin Oakenshield's whereabouts have been exposed.

In order to avoid the next situation, Allen was going to shoot and kill the two scumbags on the opposite side, but he didn't know whether Qili's skills could complete such a sniper kill.

No matter what, I can only try it. Allen signaled Qili to kill the one on the left, and kill the one on the right himself.

After determining the target, Alan and Qili quickly flashed out of the tree, and quickly shot two arrows towards the opposite side.

Allen's first arrow hit one of the riders accurately, and the other rider was also shot down by the wolf.

Immediately afterwards, Allen's next arrow hit the warg who had just reacted, and the warg fell to the ground, and although the other one was also hit by Kili's arrow, it did not die, but rushed into it crazily. into the woods.

Seeing this, Allen knew that Azog still wanted to know the whereabouts of his party.

The behavior of Allen and Qili, as well as the wailing of the orcs and wargs on the other side of the cliff, alarmed everyone in the camp.

Alan and Qili were very focused just now, and they didn't disturb. At this time, the matter was over, and they asked them what they found.

At this time, Alan said with a face full of frustration: "Those are two wolf cavalry. I think they have discovered Thorin. I wanted to kill them with Qili, but a wolf ran away."

While talking, Allen got on his horse, ready to go over there to see the situation, and try to catch up with the wolf who fled into the forest by the way.

And Thorin ordered Kili, Fili, Groin, and Duvalin to follow him, and the others to stay here, but Gandalf still followed.

Half an hour later, they came to the place where the wolf cavalry died. On the ground lay two half-orcs who had died long ago, and a dead wolf. There was a pool of blood on the ground extending far away. This must be the one that was shot. Warg.

Allen ignored the others who were looking at the corpse and whispering.

And rode his own horse to chase up along the bloodstains, but the bloodstains disappeared soon, and Alan had no choice but to return to the camp.

At this time, all members of the expedition team gathered by the campfire. They seemed to be discussing something. After Alan approached, he heard Gandalf losing his temper.

Because the team has been discovered by the wolf cavalry at this time, and Thorin Oakenshield is still carrying Azog's reward, which means that the entire team is very dangerous now.

Therefore, Gandalf strongly advocated that the team should rush to the valley as soon as possible to seek a short-term shelter, and they could also get the help of Lord Elrond there.

After all, not many people in Middle-earth can understand the words on that map.

But this proposition was not agreed by Thorin Oakenshield, he was extremely unwilling to have any entanglements with the elves.

Now, he just arranged for more people to participate in the security work, and asked everyone to take the time to rest. Starting tomorrow, the team will speed up their journey.

This made Gandalf very angry. The old man complained to Alan about the stubbornness of the dwarves almost all night. What can Alan say?Allen could only complain and took a nap for a while.

In the next few days, the expedition team changed their unhurried attitude and rushed to catch up with the schedule. Since Bilbo was experiencing wild life for the first time, he seemed to be working extraordinarily hard.

Faced with this unexpected situation, Alan felt a little guilty and extended a helping hand to Bilbo many times.

Fortunately, until the expedition team crossed the last bridge, Allen did not find the slightest trace of the orcs during the investigation. Of course, Allen also understood that it was just that the time had not yet come.

Along the way, Gandalf and Thorin Oakenshield had another quarrel.

Gandalf still proposes to go to Rivendell, but Thorin still refuses, and the two eventually get into a deadlock, and by the end, the two have stopped talking.

Alan has nothing to do with this situation, he can only do his duty as a scout, and then try to stay as far away from Gandalf as possible when he sleeps at night.

Until one day, when Allen was investigating on the edge of a forest, he discovered an abandoned village. He knew that this was the territory of the trolls.

In the movie, there are three rock trolls who were driven down from the Etten Wasteland.

Allen speculated that it should not be driven away, but to escape. The three trolls named William, Tom, and Burt probably escaped because they did not want to be enslaved by the orcs on Gondbada Mountain.

Their destructive power is really too strong, these three guys devoured all the humans around them in a very short period of time, and even attacked the passing merchants.

So Allen wanted to kill them during this expedition, not just for the three weapons in their cave, but also to prevent them from continuing to harm the travelers passing here.

And Alan actually only has this chance, and it will be difficult for him to come to Eriador again in the future.

In any case, Allen had to take advantage of the dawn to find the troll's cave first, and then persuade Gandalf and the dwarves to work together to kill the three trolls who were causing trouble.

After all, Alan and Gandalf are not the only ones at this time, and these dozen or so dwarves can be of great help.

Even though Allen was not particularly proficient in the skill of tracking, he quickly found his target.

Because there are too many traces left by the trolls here, they are simply ruining this piece of land recklessly.

Allen looked at the stinking cave, sneaked in quietly, and soon saw three trolls lying in the cave sleeping soundly, and gold and silver treasures scattered everywhere.

Allen didn't think of sneak attacking them. Trolls are rough-skinned and thick-skinned. A sneak attack may not kill them, and Allen doesn't think that he can beat the three of them alone.

After finding the target, Alan quickly left the ogre's cave and returned to the team. He found Thorin Oakenshield and told about the ogre.

Allen made it clear that the expedition team should get rid of these three trolls, not to mention anything else, the dwarves will also follow this path, and killing them is good for everyone.

Gandalf agreed with Alan's statement, but Thorin Oakenshield did not speak, but looked at the surrounding clansmen.

The opinions of the dwarves were not unified. Some dwarves also felt that the three trolls should be killed, while some dwarves felt that it would be better to complete their expedition as soon as possible without further complications.

In fact, Thorin Oakenshield was more inclined to the latter choice. He was stubborn, not stupid. Now that they were still avoiding the pursuit of the orcs, they should focus on traveling.

Seeing this situation, Alan felt a little helpless, and knew that he could not expect too much justice from the dwarves. They were just a group of ordinary people. If you had to talk about it, they were already pretty good dwarves.

Facing the current situation, Allen said helplessly: "Actually, I don't seem to have finished my sentence. Apart from the ogre, there are many glittering things in that cave. According to my estimation, it should be able to hold several boxes, even if it is not For the sake of the travelers passing by, and for the sake of the treasure, I think we should also kill those few trolls."

This sentence aroused great repercussions among the dwarves.

"Really? Is what you said true?" "How many boxes can it really hold? How big is the box?" "Then what are we waiting for, it's getting dark, we should go and ambush them right away." Go, go!"

These treasures directly convinced most of the dwarves. Thorin Oakenshield had no choice but to agree to this action after seeing the reactions of many dwarves.

　That's it for today, I had insomnia yesterday, and my brain is blown today, thank you for your support, thank you.
