The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"Barano." Idri seemed to know the human being: "Why did you come here? What happened in Minas Ihir?"

Zelin and Talion also stood up, and the demon hunter saw other Gondor soldiers coming out of the hiding place. Obviously, they all know each other.

Virginia dissipated the magical energy gathered in her hand, and walked to Zelin: "This is Barano, the captain of the guard of Minas Isil, and Idri's friend."

"Idril, I knew it was impossible for these orcs to catch you!" Barano said excitedly: "Are you trapped outside the city? Do you know the situation in the nearby orc camp?"

"I'm not trapped, Barano." Idri shook his head: "We have been fighting the orcs, but why did you come here?"

"We are here to save people." Barano's voice was worried: "The orcs attacked the city last night and they captured a few people. We are here to rescue them."

"Assault, take it?" Idri asked in disbelief, "Who did they take?"

Barano was silent for a few seconds, and he sighed: "General Castamo is missing. We found the body of the guard and the killed orc where he disappeared. We are here to rescue the general!"

Thousandth 730 chapters sweet pain

General Castamo was captured in the attack!

Zelin never thought that the first time he had contact with Minas Ihir, he would get this news.

Holding his forehead, the demon hunter sighed heavily. He didn't listen to what Barano and Idri were talking about, but turned his head, walked to the other side, sat on the rock, closed his eyes, and thought about the next actions and all the possibilities that could be thought of in his mind.

Kastam, the commander of Minas Ihir was captured by the orcs at this time? From a heavily guarded city? If it weren't for the garrison captain to tell him personally, and Idri assured that he was trustworthy, otherwise Zelin would be hard to believe that this would happen.

"Zelin." Virginia walked behind the demon hunter and asked a little worried: "It's a terrible situation?"

The mage girl didn't know much about this matter, but she could see that Zelin felt helpless by the news.

"Very bad."

Virginia smiled bitterly, and she supported Zelin's shoulders: "Holy Spirit, I told you that you should not carry an unknown magical artifact like the Ebony Blade. This will only bring us disaster and bad luck."

She made a joke.

"Perhaps Mephala thought it would stop me by causing me some trouble, and weaving a spider web would trap me." Zelin stretched out his hand and put it on the back of the mage girl: "But I will prove that she brought me these things. Trouble is far from enough to bother me. Don’t worry, Virginia, with me, no matter what the trouble is, I will find a way to solve it."

He went to the Black Gate to inquire about the news, and it happened that the Black Gate fell. He thought that the Norns could help the rangers, but Norn had already nearly collapsed under the attack of the orcs. Now, he came to Minas Ihir, hoping that Gondor could send reinforcements to help the humans in Mordor retreat. , As a result, Minas Ihir was surrounded by an army of orcs and was at stake.

Virginia put her forehead on Zelin's back. After a few seconds, she raised her head and let go of her hand: "Well, if you need me to do anything, tell me immediately. I will always be behind you."

Zelin rubbed the corners of his eyes. He didn't understand why such a change happened in the city? But now that this has happened, he must figure out what is going on.

Idrir was telling the new guard captain about the orcs outside the city, and Barano kept asking about the situation of the orcs camp and whether he could determine where General Castamo was detained.

"Barano." Zelin walked towards Barano and Idri and interrupted the two who were discussing countermeasures: "Can you tell me how General Castamo was kidnapped?"

"What?"

"How was he kidnapped?"

"We don’t know. When we heard the sound of fighting in the inner city, we rushed over. When we arrived, we saw the dead body of the orc and the seriously injured guards. They said that an orc suddenly rushed out of the street and robbed it. General."

"An orc appeared in the street? Behind the city wall?"

"Yes, but there are still a lot of them, otherwise they won't be able to beat the guards." Barano spread his hands: "I suspect they have found a way around from the side slope."

"Go around?"

"It is impossible for us to build the city wall higher than the cliff. It stands to reason that they will fall to death when they slide down the slope."

"There is always an accident in everything?"

Barano hesitated.

"I once thought about humans surrendering to orcs in the city, but if there is such a traitor, he can open the gate directly and let the orcs into the city."

"Hmm..." Zelin stretched out a finger: "Don't be too anxious. The orcs choose to kidnap General Castelmer instead of assassinating them. They want the general to live, so don't worry too much about the general's safety. For the general being imprisoned. Place, do you have any ideas?"

"I don't know, we went outside to investigate, and you stayed outside for several days, didn't you notice anything?"

"Perhaps in the warehouse cave that we burned down?"

Talion, who had been silent all the time, said suddenly.

"There? How could it be? There has been no movement there."

"But this is the place to be doubted. Last night, the two of us watched the orc camp. The whole camp was like boiling water. Only the cave was the quietest. The orcs cleared the burned wreckage two days ago, but they were not inside. Arrange any supplies of supplies, there is no camp, but there are soldiers stationed there."

"Transformed into a prison?"

"It's possible."

"Then let's take a look." Barano urged: "No one else knows that the general has been kidnapped. We didn't tell others, but this matter can't be concealed for too long."

Zelin knew how serious the consequences would be if the commander was captured and captured by the enemy when the two sides engaged in a war.

"Yes, things for all of us can't be delayed too long.

It's not just Minas Ihir.

Norn and Uton's Rangers.

Everyone's hope is that Gondor can send reinforcements, otherwise they will inevitably die in Mordor. Zelin promised Lisa Riel that he would return to Norn with a large army and accept them to leave safely. He has never broken his promise in the past, and neither does he now.

"Idri, you take the soldiers near the city wall, ready to welcome us to retreat into the city, in case the orcs appear after we leave. Barano, you come to rescue your general, we set out together, Talion, when When we sneak into the camp, help us deal with the sentry. Virginia, you and Idri, if there are orcs chasing soldiers, remember to cover us." Zelin looked around: "This is my plan, you think How is it?"

Tarion and Virginia shook their heads, indicating that they had no objection. The same goes for Idri, Barano looked at Zelin seriously: "Idri believes in you, if you can rescue the general, my sword will follow your command."

"Captain! Look over there!" The suppressed cry of a sentry attracted everyone's attention. "The orcs are moving towards the wall!"

Zelin and Talion immediately walked to the side of the mountain and looked down. Barano and Idri also walked to them and looked towards the valley. When the wide road in the valley appeared in front of you, the lower part was almost dyed black by the armor and spears of the orcs. The gate of the camp was pushed open to both sides, and the orcs in long lines took heavy steps, like a slow but fierce python, marching towards Minas Ihir. The front end of the team has disappeared outside the valley, but there are still many orcs in the camp that have not yet left. Looking at this huge army, Zelin heard a lot of cold breath sounds around him.

"The orcs must have summoned all the nearby clan." Talion gently stroked the hilt. "They want to break the city today."

"And we will prove them wrong!" Barano clenched his right hand and smashed his left hand into the heart. "This is a good opportunity! Most of their soldiers went to attack the city wall, and there were not many people in the camp! We went to rescue the general, and then before the orcs began to attack, **** the general back to the city. We must hurry, otherwise everything will be over. !"

"Let's go."

Before leaving, Zelin didn't forget to stop Virginia.

"Virginia."

"What's the matter?"

"You must be careful." Zelin hesitated in his mind, and Virginia didn't urge him. "If you encounter a dangerous and unclear place, don't rush to confront it. No matter what you want to do, you have to ensure your own safety."

Altariel kept saying that she was going to Mordor to hunt the ring spirits. This was the task that Lady Galadriel gave her. The ranger of the Black Gate and the Norn people said that there were traces of the ring spirits in Mordor. While in Norn, Altariel told Zelin that she did find the ring spirits, but they were hiding in their lair. And hunting them is not easy. Seeing the orc commander here regrouping such a large army, the demon hunter couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
