Under the guidance of the crystal ball, everyone successfully found an exit and arrived at the other side of the Misty Mountains.
"Finally it came out!" the dwarves cheered.
Dewi put the crystal ball back into the leather bag, took out a purse and handed it to Bilbo.
"This is my enchanted purse. It has two cubic meters of space. I've already put some of the treasure I got from the goblin cave in it, and there's still some space left. You can put all the extra luggage you have in there. It will make things easier."
Bilbo took the purse, opened it, and looked at the large space and dazzling gold, silver, and jewelry inside. He was very surprised and moved.
"Thank you, Doyle!"
Then he hesitated for a moment, looked at the distance of the others, and whispered to Dui: "Dui'er, I actually found something at the bottom of the cave..."
Dui stopped what he was about to say, shook his head slightly, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
"I'm glad you're willing to tell me, but this is your chance, Bilbo. You don't need to tell me."
Bilbo had not expected Dewy to say that, and the last bit of hesitation in his heart disappeared.
"I understand, Doyle, and I'll only tell you."
"I found a ring at the bottom of the cave. It seemed to have magical powers. When I put it on, it was like entering another world. No one could see me, as if I were invisible."
Dewi nodded. He had known all this for a long time, but looking at his friend's excited face, he still warned: "Bilbo, don't wear this thing often unless it is necessary, otherwise it will bring you unpredictable consequences."
Although the Hobbits are naturally resistant to the Ring, they are not without effects.
After the War of the Ring, Bilbo was invited to spend his old age in Valinor, not only because he was a master of the Ring, but also because he had been left with indelible damage after long-term contact with the Ring.
This damage does not affect the body, but the mind and soul.
Therefore, only by going to Valinor can Bilbo be cured and live peacefully in his later years.
In order to give Bilbo a clearer understanding, he revealed: "Bilbo, you must be careful with the ring. You have seen Gollum, but you don't know that he was originally a hobbit. But after he got the ring, he was gradually changed and became what he is today."
Bilbo was stunned by the news. He couldn't believe it. "Dui'ir, you said Gollum was a hobbit? How is that possible?"
"But it is what it is."
Bilbo was fidgeting. He wanted to choose not to believe it, but when he thought about the fact that Gollum was about the same size as him, and his language style and way of thinking were similar to those of the Hobbits, he had to believe it even if he didn't want to.
Not to mention that the ring was also full of temptation to him, making him have a selfish desire to monopolize it, and sometimes even give rise to dark thoughts, such as the evil idea of killing everyone who knew about the ring.
He himself was shocked by the thought.
Thinking of this, he felt the ring in his pocket became very hot. He wanted to throw it away immediately, but he was deeply attracted to it and was reluctant to throw it away.
His consciousness seemed to be divided into two people, one rational and the other obsessed, constantly arguing and tug-of-war with each other.
"Dui, what should I do?" Bilbo asked Dui for help helplessly.
"Don't worry. I'm just saying this to remind you to stay vigilant and not let yourself be lured into addiction," Dui reassured him. "Just stay rational and don't overuse it. It won't have a significant impact on you in the short term."
After finishing the conversation, everyone continued on their way.
But soon, a few wolf howls in the distance made everyone's face change.
"It's a Warg!"
In the distance, down the hillside, they saw thousands of well-equipped Orcs riding giant wolves and moving quickly towards them.
"Watch out!" cried Gandalf.
Chapter 76: Hidden Arrow Attack
Seeing the dense army of orcs in the mountains, everyone suddenly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
The dwarf Bofur looked at Dui with hope: "Dui'er, take out your crying plant and kill them!"
Others also looked at him expectantly.
After all, they still remembered the scene in the goblin cave vividly.
Dui glanced at the surroundings, then noticed the distance to the warg, and shook his head. "Don't hold out too much hope for the mandrake. The cave's unique environment is what makes it so effective. But this is the wilderness, and at such a distance, the mandrake's cry won't do much damage."
Although he said this, he still took out the mandrake.
After casting a soundproofing spell on everyone, he pulled out the mandrake and threw it in front of the oncoming orcs and wargs.
The result was as Dui had expected. The nearest wolves and orcs were caught off guard when they heard the mandrake's cry and instantly collapsed to the ground powerlessly, with no one knowing whether they were dead or alive.
Only the Wargs and Orcs, who were far away, escaped. They were so frightened by the scene that they immediately stopped attacking.
The team leader Oak felt a sharp pain in his head when he heard the faint crying sound. He immediately looked at Dui and the humanoid plant that made the crying sound with fear.
"Retreat to a position where we can't hear any sound! (Black language)" said the leader of the Oaks, "He is the black-robed wizard. There is something strange in his hand. We can't listen to him!"
"But the leader told us to get the dwarf's head! (Black language)" reminded the deputy Oak.
"Then attack from a distance and shoot them to death! (Black Language)"
"All the chief wants is the head anyway."
On Dui's side, the dwarves saw that the orcs and wargs were hesitant to approach, so they cheered and made all kinds of crude gestures to provoke the orcs in the distance.
But the next second, thousands of arrows shot towards Dui and others.
Dui raised his wand high, forming a barrier to block the attack of countless arrows.
But just as everyone was cheering for Dui once again, Dui felt a warning in his heart, as if there was a fatal threat.
The next second he saw the tall Oak leader on the distant hilltop grinning and shooting an arrow at him.
Before Dui could react, the arrow ignored the magic barrier and penetrated it directly, hitting Dui in the chest.
"Duyr!" Everyone was shocked.
They couldn't believe that Dui was hit by an arrow and gathered around.
"Dui'ir, are you all right?" Bilbo asked nervously and worriedly.
Gandalf reacted the fastest and quickly helped Dewi with a concerned look on his face. But when he saw the black arrow stuck in his chest, his face suddenly changed: "Morgul's arrow!"
"Morghur arrows? What are those?" asked Bilbo.
"That is an arrow forged in Mordor, engraved with a dark spell, and the tip is poisoned. Anyone struck by it will die a gruesome and painful death."
"Will Duir be okay?" The dwarves looked at the pale Duir worriedly.
"Cough cough..." Dui's cough attracted everyone's attention.
"How do you feel, Doile?" Bilbo asked nervously.
Dui shook his head, pulled out the arrow from his chest, and tore open his clothes. Under his robe, he was wearing a silver mail armor.
"Mithril Mail!" Thorin showed a surprised look. "I didn't expect you to have such a treasure. No wonder you can block Morgul's arrows."
"That's great! Doile, you're all right!" Bilbo said happily.
Gandalf and the dwarves also breathed a sigh of relief.
Dui looked at the arrow in his hand with lingering fear. If he had not worn this chain mail since he got it in Dadong Town, he would probably be in great danger today.
Thinking of this, Dui looked at the Oak leader on the distant hill with cold eyes.
Since he traveled through time, everything has been going smoothly for him. He didn't expect that today this guy almost made him fall.
"Uh, Duir, the mandrake outside doesn't seem to be calling anymore?" The dwarf Qili suddenly reminded.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the mandrake outside the soundproofing spell.
Only then did I realize that the Mandrake looked listless and weak, as if it was tired of crying. It groaned and lay there, making no other sound.
Oak, who was watching from a distance, also noticed this situation and began to make moves.
"Come here, Mandrake!" Dui summoned the Mandrake and buried it back in the soil of the pot, letting it rest well.
"Gandalf, please take Thorin and the others to break out later." Dewi entrusted Gandalf.
"how about you?"
"Me?" Dui looked at the Oak leader on the distant hill, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Of course, I'm going to get rid of that leader."
Although the mithril mail armor blocked the Morgul's arrows, there was still a dull pain in his chest.
If he doesn't avenge this arrow, his heart will be unstable.
"Mist around~" Dui released the mist, covering the area within a radius of several miles in mist, giving Gandalf and the others a chance to leave quietly, while also giving himself a chance to attack.
The appearance of the fog made the orcs and the wargs anxious, and the wargs could only rely on the wolf howls to determine each other's location.
Dui shuttled through the fog, guided by the crystal of true knowledge, and approached the direction of the Oak leader as if he was in an empty place.
When Dui encountered a warg and an orc on the road, he attacked them ruthlessly: "Smash them to pieces!"
With a scream from the Warg, the Warg and the Orc were instantly torn into countless pieces by the powerful force.
The other orcs and wargs in the mist were restless, and the orc leader's face changed:
"Let everyone gather together to guard against the wizard's sneak attack! (Dark language)"
The wolf under him heard the command and immediately let out a huge roar.
After hearing this, the other wolves quickly gathered towards the leader.
Dui watched this scene from the crystal ball and sneered, "Thinking you have an advantage just because you have more people? That gives me the opportunity to finish them off in one fell swoop."
Listening to the screams coming from the fog, the fear in Leader Oak's eyes deepened.
He knew that the wizard's target was him.
But he felt a little relieved when he saw nearly a thousand men and wolves gathered around him.
Even if the wizard's magic was powerful, it was impossible for him to kill so many people at once, let alone himself.
At this moment, the wolf under him seemed to smell something and immediately bared its teeth towards the fog not far away.
"Shoot! Shoot there! (Black language)"
The Orcs reacted quickly and immediately shot countless arrows in the direction where the wolf was alert.
The Orc leader even took out another Morgul arrow and shot it into the fog.
The dense stream of arrows disappeared into the mist, and the Orcs waited anxiously for the result.
"Ten thousand arrows fired at once!" A voice came from the fog.
