Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth

After waiting for a long time, there was no movement in the lake.

"Is it scared? It won't come out to attack us again, right?" Balin stretched his head to look into the lake, asking vigilantly and puzzledly.

Gandalf shook his head gravely, staring at the lake without blinking.

"The Water Watcher is a creature older and more evil than the Orcs. Even I know very little about it, but I don't think it will give up so easily."

"What should we do now?" Balin asked.

There is a water monster hidden in the lake that can rush out to attack people at any time, so it is not easy for them to get close to Durin's Gate.

But it is impossible to rush into the water and fight the water monster.

Gandalf was also a little distressed.

At this moment, Dui's expression froze, his eyes fixed on the lakeshore, and he reminded in a deep voice: "Gandalf, have you noticed that the lake level is rising?"

When Gandalf heard this, he immediately followed Dewi's gaze and found that the lake was spreading rapidly and silently.

His expression suddenly changed, and he immediately turned and ran, shouting, "Run! The flood is coming!"

Then he ran towards the nearest big tree. His body was so agile and flexible that he didn't look like an old man, and he quickly climbed up the tree.

"Hurry up and climb the tree! Hold on tight!"

After hearing this, the dwarves climbed up the surrounding trees without hesitation.

Dui immediately took out a flying broom from his space bag, rode on it and flew into the air.

The next second, the water level in the huge lake rose rapidly, and then like a huge basin overturned, the lake water directly set off huge waves and rushed towards the highlands on the lakeshore.

The flood came like a tidal wave, and some dwarves who climbed slowly or were in a low position were directly washed away.

Some trees even couldn't withstand the impact of the huge waves, and fell into the flood along with the dwarves on the trees.

Dui was riding on his flying broom, looking at the situation below with a frown on his face.

He shouted to the sky: "Smaug, Thorondor, come down and help!"

Hearing Dui's words, Thorondo swooped down, quickly grabbed the two dwarves struggling in the water with his two eagle claws, and threw them onto a large tree that had not fallen.

Smaug followed closely behind, and his huge dragon claws easily hooked up several dwarves.

Dui also flew down to help, using levitation spells to control the dwarves who were washed into the flood, allowing them to fall onto the nearest trees.

Gandalf climbed to the top of the tree and used his staff as a stick to hold back two dwarves who were almost washed away. Then he remembered that he still had a flying broom. With a look of regret, he quickly took out the broom from his space bag and joined in rescuing the dwarves.

But the underwater watcher who caused this flood obviously did not want everyone to have such an easy time.

It hid in the water, and its thick and powerful tentacles directly tore off the trees, causing the dwarves to fall into the flood like dumplings in the water.

Perhaps he knew that Dui, Smaug and others were not easy to deal with.

The cunning water monster simply hides its face, using the power of the flood to hide its body, and then attacks the tree where the dwarves are climbing from underwater.

Let Dewi and Gandalf tire themselves out with the rescue.

"Duyle, the underwater watcher can control the water flow. We have to find a way to force it out of the water, otherwise we can't do anything to it."

Gandalf said helplessly.

Dui thought about it and took out the suitcase containing the basilisk.

"The basilisk Herpo can move in water. Let's see if we can use it to threaten the underwater watchers?"

He patted the suitcase and said, "It's your turn!"

Then he opened the suitcase and threw it directly into the lake.

As soon as the box landed on the lake, a tentacle emerged from the water and tried to drag it under.

The next second, a huge snake head rushed out of the box, bit the tentacle hard, and injected venom.

The tentacles felt pain and immediately let go of the suitcase and retracted into the water.

Dui, who saw this scene from above, suddenly had his eyes lit up and was full of anticipation.

The venom of the basilisk is extremely poisonous. Even just a drop is enough to poison an elephant, and there is no antidote except the tears of the phoenix.

Now that the water watcher has been bitten by the basilisk, I wonder if the poison can kill it?

But the result disappointed him.

The underwater monitor was obviously very smart and cunning. It realized something was wrong the moment it was injected with venom and bit off its own tentacles without hesitation, preventing the venom from spreading to its body.

Only a large piece of broken tentacle, more than ten meters long, floated out of the lake.

"Herpo, kill that guy in the water! (Snake language)" Dui hissed at the basilisk that had just crawled out of the box.

The basilisk closed its eyes and nodded, then immediately dived into the water and followed the direction of the watcher in the water.

Soon, the lake water began to surge, as if a fierce battle was taking place underwater.

Suddenly, the lake water, which had been dyed blue-black by the blood of the observer in the water, turned pitch black as if ink had been poured into it, and there was no clarity at all.

Dui felt uneasy.

The most powerful feature of the basilisk is its eyes. They are already restricted in the water. Now that the lake is so dark and visibility is low, can they still be of any use to monitor the people watching in the water?

Sure enough, Hailbo soon emerged from the water.

"Herbo, what's the situation?" Dui asked hurriedly.

The basilisk shook his head.

"That big creature was very perceptive. It sensed danger before it even saw my eyes and sprayed ink at me. The ink blinded me and I couldn't kill it at all.

It tried to wrap itself around me and tear me apart, but after I bit its tentacles and injected venom into them, it controlled the water flow to prevent me from getting close. (Snake language)"

Therefore, the underwater watcher is afraid of Helpo's eyes and venom, and Helpo cannot attack closely because the underwater watcher can control the water flow.

Neither of them could do anything to the other, and they were in a stalemate for a while.

Dui couldn't help but frown when he got such a result.

This underwater watcher is really difficult to deal with in the water.

But it is obviously not easy to force it out of the water.

After all, this underwater watcher was very cunning and cautious. When he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately hid in the lake and started a guerrilla war with them.

Suddenly he looked towards the downstream of the lake, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

There was originally no lake in front of the gate of Dulin. There was only a stream called Xilannong Creek flowing in front of the gate.

But as time went by, the downstream was blocked, and the water gathered to form the current landslide lake, submerging the entire Ximen area.

As long as the impounded lake is drained, the underwater watchers will lose the lake water on which they depend for survival, and there will be nothing to fear at all.

Due immediately told Gandalf about this idea.

"As expected, you young people have flexible minds, unlike an old man like me whose brain is almost rigid!"

Gandalf nodded and praised.

"But we can't directly destroy the dam. The water here has accumulated for thousands of years. If it is destroyed, it will cause a flood that will submerge the entire downstream area, bringing disaster to the residents downstream!"

Dui hadn't expected this and nodded seriously: "Then we should just make a hole and slowly release the water so as not to cause a flood!"

Have Helpo continue to harass the underwater watcher in the lake to distract it.

Dui flew to the landslide dam.

This place is built with many stones, dead trees and soil, forming a huge dam that connects the hills on both sides of the valley.

Such obvious human traces are obviously a barrier lake created by the underwater watchers in order to expand their living space.

In order to avoid the destruction of the dam and the resulting flood, Dui simply asked Smaug to use his tail to carve a canal on the side of the mountain to divert the lake water out.

The lake water poured down the aqueduct, causing the stream to swell rapidly and covering the river channel, but no flood was caused.

As time passed, the water level of the lake gradually dropped.

The water monitors in the lake noticed the situation, became very anxious, and tried to destroy the canal to prevent the lake water from flowing out.

But he was forced back by the dragon flame of Smaug, the giant dragon guarding the flood outlet.

In addition, there was a snake monster in the lake that was constantly harassing the people in the water, and the observers in the water were unable to take care of themselves.

As the water level of the lake got lower and lower, Dui finally cast a thunder explosion spell, which blew up the dam, and the remaining lake water poured out.

The full appearance of the underwater watcher was also completely exposed.

Chapter 164: Durin's Gate

Even though he had already caught a glimpse of part of the appearance of the watcher in the water.

But when it was fully exposed to everyone, everyone was still shocked by its huge size.

The underwater watcher is 50 meters long, and its tentacles are several times longer than its body. If the length of the tentacles is included, it is even longer than the dragon Smaug, reaching about 150 meters!

In addition, the underwater watcher is covered with hard scale-like bones.

The dwarves shot at it with their sharp arrows, but they could not leave a single wound on it.

Without the cover of the lake, the underwater watcher was very uneasy, waving its tentacles and making threatening gestures in an attempt to scare away everyone.

But at this moment, it is like a toothless tiger, and its threat to everyone is greatly reduced.

Dui waved his wand and cut off its tentacles one by one.

The observer in the water showed fear on his face and immediately ran upstream.

It is an evil water creature created by Morgoth. It originally lived in the underground waters of the Misty Mountains. When the dwarves of Khazad-dûm kept digging for mithril mines, not only the Balrog was awakened.

The underwater watcher is one of them.

It came to the surface along the underground river dug by the dwarves and built a barrier lake there to survive.

Now I just want to escape back to the underground waters of the Misty Mountains and wait for the future.

But Dui would not give it a chance to escape.

"Smaug, burn it!" Dui shouted at the dragon.

Smaug received the order and flew directly in front of the underwater watcher, spraying out scorching dragon flames.
