The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Virginia shrugged with a smile: "I don't know."

The commander of the orc is very clever. It did not choose to send an army to the nearby hills to search for the attackers, which is likely to give the defenders in the city a chance. Instead, they chose to continue the offensive, while leaving a sufficient number of troops in the rear, waiting for the attackers to throw themselves into the net.

Whatever the purpose of the attackers, they must rescue Minas Ihir. Then, as long as it strengthens its offensive, the hidden attackers must continue to act. In this way, it does not need to disperse the army to the endless mountains and look for the attackers in the densely forested mountains, but gather its forces. , Be vigilant and welcome the enemy to attack again.

It has a good idea.

But Zelin has seen too many such traps. The illusion of the victim is used to attract rescuers into traps, and there are never a few monsters that can do so.

The orcs failed to break through the walls on the first day of their offensive. The number of troops they dispatched was so small that when night fell and the exhausted orcs had to retreat, the only loss that Minas Ihir suffered was the two collapsed bodies hit by the boulder. An arrow tower. Barano and the soldiers on the wall waited for the return of those who had smashed out of the city before, but they did not wait for news. Many people are worried. They don’t know what happened outside. When Idri left the city, what they were waiting for was not reinforcements, but a new wave of orcs offensive. Although the number of orcs attacking was not as large as before, they were waiting. It will always be the most suffering moment.

But the next day, when the orcs attacked again, the defenders were surprised to find that the behemoth of war had disappeared. Orc soldiers with shields and spears slammed into the city wall amidst howling. The walls were flying like a rain of arrows. The long bridge over which they charged was covered with corpses with arrows on their bodies. More orcs were killed under the wall. . The city wall is only five meters wide from the cliff. Many orcs are piled together. Because there is no need to worry about the stones thrown in the distance, the archer can shoot down an enemy without aiming when shooting downwards.

When the orcs were repelled again, the defenders still failed to get news of outside reinforcements.

But on the third day, the orcs did not attack again, they retreated outside the long bridge. Chaos in the orc camp occurred that night, but it was quickly subdued, and several broken orc corpses were hung on spears and flagpoles.

On the fourth day, the defenders noticed that some orcs tried to escape along the valley outside the city, but they failed. The screams during the fall almost awakened the defenders on the entire wall.

In the next few days, the orcs organized several organized offensives, but they did not have the support of siege equipment, and it was difficult to cause more threats to the city wall. And I don’t know why, when they attacked, they would always stay in large numbers in the rear camp. Soldiers, so that under the attack of a large number of enemy forces, the shaky line of defense has become as strong as a reef in the waves.

This situation continued until ten days later.

Chapter 1727: The Betrayer in the Shadows

The shining stars guard the bright moon, the shadow of Mordor has not yet enveloped the sky, and the stars can still provide light for the people on the land in the dark night. The forest outside Minas Ihir was covered with twilight, and the branches and leaves of the dark green shrubs swayed slightly under the caress of the night wind. In a brightly lit city, patrols with torches are like fire snakes patrolling the streets and alleys. There are more fires in the orc camps outside the city. Patrols and guards are everywhere. Torches almost light up the entire valley. A few burned tents have not been cleaned up. After the charred, only the remains of the remains remind everyone to go. Orcs who have passed, who is threatening them in the dark. .

In the gloomy bushes, after a burst of patters, a pair of hands stretched out from the bushes to separate the branches from left to right, revealing the orcs hidden inside. After looking around and making sure that there were no people nearby, the orc walked out of the bushes and beckoned behind him. Soon, new footsteps came from behind.

"Hurry up, humans, we have no time to delay!"

A human came out of the bushes. This was a man in his fifties. His gray temples made him look like a sixty-year-old man, but his sturdy physique looked like a forty-year-old middle-aged man. He raised his head, followed the orc, and walked step by step into the brightly lit camp ahead. The shadows that flashed with the flame covered the man's angular face, and the wrinkles carved out like a knife were filled with worry and vigilance. The armor is branded with the Gondor logo, and the exquisite armor is covered with dust. It seems that it has not been cleaned for a while, but it can still be seen that this is not a costume that ordinary soldiers can wear. Bloodshot gray eyes swept across the orc camp nearby, and his tight lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything.

If Idri was here, she would definitely recognize who this human was.

Castamo, the commander and lord of Minas Ihir, her father!

The orcs in the camp quickly noticed the human presence, and they immediately howled and rushed over with their weapons. But then they stopped, not because of how powerful this human was, enough to make them feel scared, but because they knew the orcs who walked in front of the humans. It was their great chief who personally executed several provocateurs and traitors who tried to escape a few days ago. Today, the bodies of these losers are still stinking on the flagpole.

"Go away, stupid, go away!" The chief cracked open his ringed mouth, revealing his mouth full of broken teeth like jagged teeth: "I will not allow you to touch this human being until I give a new order. If I find someone attacking him, I will throw it alive into the wild beast cage!"

"This is a human!" an orc yelled, "Why did a human walk into our camp?!"

"Kill them all, kill all humans, they cause us so much trouble! They must die!"

"After eating them, we haven't eaten meat for a long time. It's all black bread with maggots!"

"They are still attacking us, our food transport team has been attacked again, and the meat has been burned clean!"

Angry shouts came and went, but the chief had only one way to calm all the orcs.

"Quiet!"

The cry of the orc disappeared immediately.

"Get away!" It lifted the axe, the broad axe was stained with blood, some humans and orcs. "Go back to your position, I ask this human being to remain intact in the camp, one arm and one leg must not be missing! You are still standing here, do you want to challenge me?!"

The orcs blocking the road rushed away.

They want to eat humans, but it doesn't mean they are willing to be killed by the chief for food.

"Come with me, hurry up, human!" The chief turned his head and stared fiercely at the human behind him. The killing intent in his eyes clearly showed that if there is no need to protect this human, it will smash the axe in at the fastest speed. In this human head. "It wants to see you, and doesn't like delays."

Castamo followed behind the orc, and stepped into a camp in the deepest part of the camp. From the outside, this camp looks no different from other tents. Low, narrow, and surrounded by garbage. The orc chief stopped in front of the curtain, then turned sideways and waved his hand at the human behind him.

"Go in!"

Castamo bit his scalp and walked into the camp without a word. There was a reluctant look in his eyes, but something drove him to come here.

In the camp, a tall figure in a cloak stood inside, with his back to the door. The cloak was as dark as the night, completely enclosing the figure, without leaking a gap, perhaps no one would be able to find even a sculpture inside. Human beings walked in, facing the figure in front of him, a trace of retreat and struggle flashed in his eyes, but in the end he half-kneeled on the ground and paid tribute to his back.

"You still make the right decision in the end, Castamo."

The first thing that sounded was a deep sound accompanied by a suppressed echo, as if this sentence came from the abyss. The figure slowly turned around, and under the wide hood, there was only endless darkness: "I believe that in the end there will be wise members of mankind who will understand what can be confronted and what must be obeyed."

Castamo lowered his head. As the chief of the city stationed on the border of Mordor, he understood what the creature standing in front of him was.

Ring spirit!

"You know what I want." Ring spirit took two steps forward, the shadow covering Castamo.

"Parant, the true knowledge spar." General Kastamer said: "It is placed in the high tower in the city. If you are willing to evacuate the siege and the humans in the city leave, I will give you the true knowledge spar. "

"While you are negotiating, you deliberately delay time."

The cold voice of Ring Spirit made the temperature in the tent seem to drop several degrees, but Castamo’s forehead was dripping with sweat, because he saw Ring Spirit throw four blood-stained letter papers in front of him. He knew these letters. , I also know what's inside. This is exactly what he wrote for the help of the Regent Dinese!

"You thought you could ask for reinforcements from Gondor, but none of the messengers you sent this month left the valley alive. I've had enough of your tricks. Tomorrow, surrender or die."

Castamo said nothing.

"You also sent your daughter out of the city to attack my camp." There was no emotion in the ring spirit's voice, and some were just cold: "You only have tonight, do as I say, otherwise, in my tomorrow When launching an attack, your daughter’s body will be pierced by the admiral at the forefront."

"No!" Castamo stood up abruptly: "Don't hurt her!"

"Whether she is alive or not," Jie Ling said gently: "It depends on what kind of decision you will make tomorrow."

Castamo gritted his teeth and stared at the ring spirit in front of him, but in the hood, all he saw was darkness. Finally, he nodded: "I will do what you say, you must let the humans in the city go!"

"I don't know how many bargaining opportunities you have, but your daughter will survive because of this." The ring spirit raised his hand and beckoned to the curtain, and the orc chief came out respectfully. "Escort him to the edge of the camp and wait for the humans in the city to rescue their general. Then, tell the other orcs to pretend not to see and let them go."

The first thousand seven hundred and twenty-eight chapters sacrifice

The situation is indeed as Zelin expected.

The orcs found a trail that could traverse the mountains. The road was not spacious, but it was large enough for war monsters and food-carrying slaves to pass through. After realizing that attacking the city wall could not attract the attacker to show up, the commander of the orc sent a messenger to Mordor to urge other tribes to deliver enough food. The demon hunter had been monitoring the orc camp, and when he saw an orc leaving the camp and entering the mountains, he immediately followed.

Unless the orcs can make a messenger disappear to completely avoid the surveillance of the demon hunter, Zelin believes that no messenger can leave the valley and send orders to Mordor. At first, Zelin wanted to understand what the orcs were going to do by intercepting the letters of the orcs, but then he realized why Talion would smile when he said this idea.

It's impossible for an orc to write a letter.

Zelin never looked down upon any enemy, but this time, he must admit that he overestimated the level of orcs. At least sometimes in the bandit camp in Skyrim, he could see one or two diaries written by bandits.

"Did you see the expressions of the orcs when they saw the wild beasts running out of the cage? Haha, it's like a child who scares his pants. These wild beasts are really powerful. If we can also tame some wild beasts, Gondor, When the orcs attack, let the wild beasts go directly, we don't have to go to the battlefield at all!"

Victory for several days made the soldiers under Idri very excited. They were surrounded by the city for a month and then surrounded by orcs on the mountain. No one thought they could go back alive, let alone defeat the enemy. However, in the past few days, they have intercepted and killed orc patrols everywhere, burned supplies, and destroyed the camp. Last night, they took advantage of the darkness to destroy the animal cage in the camp. In the darkness, the demon hunter didn't know how much damage this action caused. Although all the wild beasts that escaped were killed in the end, these wild beasts killed at least three times as many orcs as they did.
