The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"There is no messenger. I suspect that the messenger has brought the demon lord's declaration of war last time." Altea took a deep breath. The lord made a request for assistance to His Majesty Thorin. They have not shown any signs of attacking, but during this period, new soldiers have joined in that camp every day, and the number is increasing. I think it will not be until the day they launch the attack. For too long, it’s October, maybe a month later, and it won’t exceed January next year at the latest. Because the army is expanding, the scouts report that the number of food convoys is decreasing. Food consumption will also force them. The generals act as soon as possible."

"It's a human living in the Ruen Inner Sea." Groyin touched his beard: "The humans in the East have always been admirers and servants of Sauron, but I didn't expect that one day they would take the initiative to attack Gushan. "

"At least we are lucky. Fifty years ago, the orcs of Azog and Gundabad had been wiped out. Now Sauron can only summon his human followers from the east. Lonely Mountain only needs to face one direction. Enemies of yours." Zelin rubbed the corners of his eyes: "Ge Luoyin, when are you going to return to Gushan?"

"The sooner the better, the meeting here is over." Groyin pursed his lips, his expression anxious: "I must report the contents of the Rivendell meeting to Thorin as soon as possible, and then participate in the war to defend the Lonely Mountain. This There must be a war, and the devil will not let it go, but if it is ready to reach out to the lonely mountain, we will break every finger of it!"

"At that time, Altea, you will just drop in with Groyin. The dark forest road is too strange for you."

"It would be great for someone to know the road." Altea chuckled slightly: "I knew this way. I didn't need to fly so low on the road to observe the road."

"It's my honour. I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning and see you at the entrance of the valley, Ms. Eberlock."

After bowing to Altea, Groyin turned and left with Jin Ping. He kept explaining to his son on the road until his figure disappeared behind a corner statue.

"Your griffin doesn't seem to like it very much here. It always seems to be about to meet an enemy, but it flies very fast. I have never rode such a majestic griffin. I know that the rewards given by the Alliance are definitely better than The old griffins that the forgotten towns struggle to raise are much better."

"This is very important to me." Zelin looked at the Griffon who was lying on the ground, necking up and looking around: "By the way, before you leave, please send me a letter back."

"The holy light is on, Zelin, where are you going to ride the griffin?" Altea took her gaze back, she stepped forward, pressed the demon hunter, held Zelin's wrist, and let him put his hand on her own. Waist. The red lips opened slightly, and there was a hint of complaint and expectation in the half-closed eyes: "When you see me, all you think of is sending a letter? I heard that you are leaving soon. It's tomorrow, right?"

Zelin wanted to say that it was today. In fact, according to the plan, he was about to leave now.

"Yes, tomorrow, tomorrow morning."

Altea lifted her toes, and her red lips with a rose smell blocked Zelin's remaining explanation.

"I will go to the Fargon Forest, which is the woodland north of Isengard. Zelin is very worried about whether Saruman will do anything there. I will go to investigate the intelligence." In the room, Xisali stood alone. On the side, she talked about her arrangements: "If everything goes well, I might be able to arrive at Edoras, the capital of Rohan, and wait for you there."

"In this case, the division of labor is very clear."

The Dragonborn paced back and forth in the room, and Virginia picked up the tea cup, blew the heat from it gently, frowned slightly at the figure walking back and forth, then closed her eyes and took a sip of tea.

"Virginia, together with Frid, you **** Bilbo, who holds the Lord of the Rings, to Rohan, where you will join Zelin and then arrive at Gondor, waiting for others." The Dragonborn stopped and turned on the spot. Circle: "Then Zelin and I took a griffon to Rohan to warn the local king and figure out a way to deal with the betrayed mage."

"Why does it sound like you are wrong?" Virginia put the teacup on the table: "Should you not be responsible for the most powerful **** mission? And Miss Frid, who is the best at covert combat." I am a spellcaster, and I need another spellcaster to deal with the spellcaster. The wizards here will cast many weird spells that Skyrim does not have. If you are spelled in the magic tower and you can’t speak, how can you deal with the remaining magic? Can you solve the curse? Will you use magic to protect yourself?"

咚咚咚——

Suddenly, the door rang.

"Please come in." Hisalie turned her head.

The wooden door was pushed open, and Bilbo stood at the door and bowed to the others: "Say hello to you, ladies. I met Zelin just now, and he said he had a message he wanted me to send it over. That's what it said. :'King Elrond arranged for him to leave with the watcher tomorrow, because there is a Palantir in Isengard. If you deal with Saruman, the holder of the Lord of the Rings must be careful and look directly at the magic eye. They all have The experience of fighting against Sauron, once stood under the evil black tower, they can fight against Saruman.'. Then it is Zelin's, and he said he will leave tomorrow morning."

As he said, Bilbo paused: "I am ready, and my sword, although there is no armor, and the mithril armor is on Frodo, but I am always ready to send this ring to Yingshang Place."

The atmosphere in the room solidified for a few seconds.

Hisalie broke the silence first: "I think we will be ready soon, Mr. Bilbo. Please wait a moment and we will leave soon."

Bilbo smiled: "It just so happens that I have to go and explain a few words to Frodo. See you later, ladies."

Wait until the wooden door is closed again. Dragonborn and Virginia sighed for a long time.

"Watcher? Who is that?"

"Probably the ranger named Altarel." Virginia's face was gloomy: "She fought in Mordor with Zelin, and both carried the ring."

"Wait, isn't she going to show us the way through the golden iris swamp?"

"If we go along the river, there is no need at all, because the road from the old ferry to Lothlorien, I know..." Virginia lay on the table with her arms crossed, her face buried in her elbows : "I'm ready at any time."

"Why did Zelin suddenly decide to leave one day late?" Long Yi once again grasped an important question.

"Gryphon." The silent Freid said concisely: "Ebrock is here."

The room fell silent again.

The Dragonborn moved his knuckles and looked at Hisalie seriously: "Druid, when this matter is over, when we go back, we have to find him, settle the account, and then call Shangyi. Ned, then...in the name of Talos, in short, let him know what an apology and begging for mercy are this time!"

Chapter 2404 Luohan

"The preceptors are ready to set off to the Doomsday Volcano."

In the courtyard in the early morning, King Elrond looked seriously at the people standing in a circle around him. Either tall or short. The four hobbits stand at the front, with Frodo in the middle, Sam on the left, Pipin on the right, and Merrie on the right. Aragorn stood behind Frodo, beside him were Boromo and Legolas. The Golden Thunder stood at the extreme edge. Two humans happened to separate him from the wizard Legolas. Sam is holding Pony Bill brought from Bree. Holding the wand in one hand, Gandalf stood at the back, looking at everyone present in comfort and gentleness.

"Everyone traveling with him is not bound by any oath, any promise, and can interrupt the journey at any time."

Elrond said solemnly. This is not an oath, but everyone is serious about it, and no one has shown a relaxed look because of such an announcement.

Legolas raised his head and held his chest tall, Aragorn's gaze rested on the elves who surrounded the courtyard behind him. Princess Arwen, who was standing in front, raised her eyes, facing Aragorn's line of sight.

"Goodbye, stick to your purpose. May all elves and humans..." King Elrond paused: "The blessings of the free people follow you."

After that, Elrond opened his arms and bent slightly to pay his respects.

But on the other side, a team had already taken the lead.

The rugged rocks are scattered on the gray-yellow hills, the hills are dotted with a little green. The wind howled Zelin's cheeks, and he had to squint his eyes. The hills are undulating, and the endless grassland is strewn with rugged rocks, deserted.

When the first ray of light illuminates the sky, Zelin rides a griffin over the Misty Mountains and heads to Rohan. Last time, he traversed the Fargon Forest, arrived at Rohan Pass, and followed the target along the White Mountains to the Ash Mountains in the east. Now that the sun is slanting westward, the horizon in the distance is still only undulating pastures.

"We have entered the territory of Rohan, right?"

After a day of silence, Zelin asked. The body was stiff after being blown by the cold wind for a day, but riding on a griffon is not a good place to move your body.

"At this rate, in just one day, you can see the white mountains shrouded in clouds." Alta Reall sat in front of Zelin. Originally, the demon hunter was worried about whether even counting the elf rangers would make the griffon unable to fly or control the balance. But in reality, the elves may not be lighter than a human child. Zelin didn't know how this was done, but the light body is undoubtedly the guarantee that the ranger can jump and move between the branches: "We have just crossed Lothlorien, and by night, you can see the Loop in the front left."

"Then we need to rest." Zelin recalled the map in his mind and made a decision: "Gryphons also need to rest."

Before the Elf Ranger objected, he added.

Along the way, he thought he could see villages or farms scattered on the hills. However, it turns out that most of Rohan’s villages are located at the foot of the Misty Mountains, or built beside the Anduin River, and the rest are along the Ente River that crosses the country. Enter the Anduin River.

Controlling the Griffon, Zelin landed on a hill with a huge rock on the top of the hill, which could just block the cold wind and the light of the campfire.

"We must be faster." Altariel turned over and jumped, holding his bow with a serious expression: "Destroy his plan before Saruman starts to act. Isinger controls Rohan's Pass, if it can be in the gray robe Before the wizard Gandalf and others arrive, master Isinger, this journey will be much easier."

"That's why we are here...Okay, okay, that's okay."

Zelin rubbed his frozen hands, and the Griffin rubbed his beak against his shoulder. The demon hunter lowered his head and took out a piece of dried bacon. Before he could throw it out, the Griffin grabbed the piece of meat from his hand, raised his head, and swallowed it.

"Look, it's exhausted too."

The Griffon paced aside, lying on the ground, his wings folded. Zelin took out another piece of meat and threw it in front of it. The latter was like a magic trick. After Zelin turned his head, a large piece of meat was already gone: "It doesn't make any sense to rush into Isengard when he is exhausted. "

"Are there more?"
