American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 596 Ross Gobert

Seeing that the villagers' expressions were no longer as numb as before, Mike nodded in a friendly manner in response, then turned to the old village chief and asked, "The dense forest is no longer safe, why didn't you move in advance?"

"We have selected strong villagers before and formed a scout team to find a way out. But those people never came back..." The old village chief sighed helplessly.

It’s not that they don’t want to leave, but the dark forces revived too suddenly, trapping the people in this medium-sized village deep in the jungle.

Goblins and orcs, which were easily dealt with by Mike, would be a disaster for ordinary villagers.

The people of this village have survived until now by defending the village, but they ended up encountering an ogre that is invincible beyond human power.

If Mike had come a few days later, they might have all become food for the ogre.

"How about this, you quickly gather everyone in the village, and I will take you to the outskirts of the jungle during the day." Mike thought for a while and decided to give the villagers some help.

"Thank you so much, you are a great benefactor of the village..." Upon hearing this, the old village chief was so moved that he almost knelt down to Mike.

For the people in this village, Mike's small action was like giving them a second life.

"Don't say thank you." Mike supported the old village chief, and then used his divine power to lift up the villagers who were also about to kneel down, and said, "Time is running out, everyone hurry back and pack up~"

The villagers also realized that Mike was not a person who liked to engage in formalities, so they all kept their gratitude in their hearts and went back to pack their bags.

More than half an hour later, the villagers, having abandoned most of their bulky daily necessities, gathered in the center of the village with dry food and necessary valuables.

"Let me make it clear first. From now on, whether we encounter ogres or orcs, I will be able to protect your safety..." Mike said, and casually broke a big tree to show his military power, giving the villagers a reassurance in advance, and then continued: "So when encountering an emergency, don't panic, so as not to make the situation worse..."

In this situation, having a powerful person to establish prestige can make many things simpler.

Then, under Mike's leadership, the villagers quickly formed an orderly migration team.

Women, children and the elderly were consciously protected by the villagers.

It can be seen that after experiencing hardships, the people in this village have become more united.

Just such a team was destined to be slow. Even though the villagers wanted to get out of the dense forest as quickly as possible, they only walked a quarter of the way in a whole day.

In the evening, we encountered a group of more than a dozen orcs.

Even though Mike had made assurances in advance, fear inevitably spread among the crowd when they encountered the orcs.

However, before the crowd could make a commotion, Mike stepped forward and easily dealt with all the orcs in a few moves.

Even dark creatures will die if killed.

Witnessing this situation again, the villagers' faith in Mike deepened.

"Okay, let's camp here and rest tonight. We'll continue our journey tomorrow during the day..." After solving the problem, Mike noticed that many of the villagers looked tired.

So we found a relatively flat place for everyone to rest.

After a night's rest and regaining some strength, the villagers moved much faster the next day.

And when they encountered the dark creatures again, they were much calmer than before.

After walking and stopping many times, the huge team finally arrived at the outskirts of the dense forest on the morning of the fourth day, and if they were lucky, they would encounter a team of rangers.

After negotiation, Mike hired this team of rangers for ten gold coins and asked them to escort the villagers out of the valley.

Then he privately found the old village chief and gave him a bag of gold coins to ensure that these villagers would have start-up funds to resettle their homes no matter where they went.

Then, after seeing off the old village chief and villagers who expressed their gratitude, Mike changed a route and entered the depths of the jungle again.

This time he did not control his speed, and his figure quickly shuttled through the depths of the dense forest. Any dark creatures he encountered would be completely destroyed by him.

During this period, they also specifically tracked the traces of the trolls. As time went on, all the dark creatures in the jungle knew that a ruthless man had come into the jungle.

More than half a month passed, and with Mike's killing spree, the black fog in the Mirkwood had dissipated a little. "It's time to move on." After killing another ogre and robbing his treasure, Mike headed towards the junction of the Valley and the Misty Mountains.

The Misty Mountains start from the northern highlands and almost span the entire Middle-earth. The continuous mountain range divides Middle-earth into two parts on the left and right sides.

Rossgobel, located to the north of the mountains, is one of the few gaps that can directly penetrate the east-west direction of Middle-earth.

This is also one of the places where dark creatures invade the west from Mordor in the east.

Gaster, who is also a brown-robed wizard of the Maia, has lived in Rosgobel for many years to fight against the forces of darkness in order to protect the peace west of the Misty Mountains.

However, as the power of darkness grew stronger, Radagast gradually felt that he was unable to cope with it.

One day, when he walked out of his cabin and prepared to patrol the dark forest, he suddenly found that the small animals that had taken refuge near his cabin began to die one after another.

A large number of birds were infected by the evil spirit and fell to the ground. Several fawns in the herd fell to the ground and struggled, and soon they lost their breath.

Radagast, who is close to nature, has abilities similar to Tom in the Old Forest, and can create a protective "barrier" around where he lives.

Now, the fact that the little animals were dying around him was proof that the dark power surrounding Rossgobert had surpassed the power of the brown-robed wizard.

"How to do how to do……"

Seeing the small animals die one after another, Radagast was filled with grief. He paced back and forth anxiously, thinking about how to deal with the dark forces.

At this time, a cheerful little hedgehog ran out of the cabin, but fell to the ground after only two steps.

“No...Sebatian...what’s wrong with you...Sebatian..." Seeing this, Radagast ran over in panic and picked up the little hedgehog.

This hedgehog named Sebatian was one of the first animals to seek refuge in Rossgobel and could be considered an "old friend" of the brown-robed wizard.

"Hold on, Sebatian, you'll be fine..." Seeing the little hedgehog in his hand's breath getting weaker and weaker, Radagast rushed back to the cabin with a confused mind.

He now had only one thought, which was to rescue his friends.

However, even with the help of herbs and magic, the little hedgehog Sebatian still showed no improvement, and even his breathing was barely audible.

At the same time, outside the house came the sounds of other small animals screaming in fear and running away.

Then, two unidentified giant monsters climbed up the windows of the cabin, completely blocking out the sunlight inside the house.

"This is... a warning from the dark forces..."

In a panic, Radagast realized that this disaster was a test of himself by the dark "Lord".

If they cannot resist, more dark creatures will pass through Rossgobert and go to Mirkwood, Bree, and even the Shire in the west.

Just as the brown-robed wizard took out the blue crystal and prepared to expel the evil spirit in Sebatian's body with all his strength, he suddenly saw a flash of white light outside the window.

Along with the screams of the unknown monster, the sunlight once again shone into the cabin.

"The dark forces were repelled???"

Radagast was shocked, but the dying hedgehog friend in front of him made him temporarily unable to explore the situation outside the house.

A few minutes later, Radagast, who had gathered all his magic power, finally drew out the evil energy from the hedgehog's body with the help of the blue crystal, allowing Sebatian to survive.

It was not until this time that he had time to drag his tired body outside to see what was happening outside the house.

Who fought off the monster?

"Hello, Radagast. I've heard of you from Tom and Gandalf." Mike, who was fiddling with the corpse of a giant spider outside the house, greeted the brown-robed wizard when he saw him come out.
