The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"Excuse me, Your Highness, I am very worried about the situation of Osgilius." Boromo shook his head: "The Hobbit has been rescued, and Saruman's conspiracy has been thwarted, but my brother Faramo is still Standing alone by the Osgilius river. Sauron even summoned an army from Luen. I can't imagine how many orcs would rush out of the Minas Devil and attack the border of Gondor. I was worried, although I really want to celebrate with you, but Gondor needs me more. I hope we can meet again at another victory banquet in the future."

"No problem, Polomo. Believe me, after Saruman is defeated, Sauron can no longer pinch humans from both sides." Zelin patted Polomo on the shoulder: "Gondo will have a solid Back."

"You have always claimed that Saruman has failed, but none of us has seen the result yet, hasn't it?" Altariel asked, "Anything can happen before seeing the enemy fall in front of you."

"Because I really can't imagine what Saruman would use to defend Isengard." Zelin shrugged, "Especially when there are treants attacking it."

At the same time, Saruman, who fled back to Isengard, was shocked to see that his fortress was full of treants.

The half-orcs, strong orcs, and the forge he was proud of all disappeared.

Only a vast ocean remained inside the city wall.

Chapter 2461: Falamo's Ambush

When Saruman's army was ambushed, Gondor, also a human force from the East, was ambushed.

The emerald green cloak concealed the ambushers well. The archers hidden in the bushes bent their bows and took arrows, and the continuous rain of arrows kept attacking the pikemen on the avenue. Soldiers covered in black veils and turbans, and wearing dark brown scaly armor, fell to the ground one after another under the attack of arrow rain.

"Oh, this is not an orc." Bilbo lay behind a dirt slope, watching the battle at the edge of the forest in the distance, holding his elf sword in one hand: "Humans who are loyal to Sauron, I have only heard of it. They. Damn it, fortunately we didn't walk on the main road, otherwise we would definitely be found."

"Why are they here?" Sam was carrying a travel bag, which was full of food, drinking water and various tools, and at the top of the package was a rolled up sleeping bag.

"Harad, I heard the dwarves talk about when I was in the Lonely Mountain, and there are elves, but they spend most of their time in the south." Bilbo slowly backed away: "In the past, I remember Dan Tie When Zu led his army to retreat, he said that he would return to the iron hills to defend against human attacks from the east. These are all troops loyal to the devil, and like Azog, come here to fight for the devil. Let’s go, boys It’s not safe to stay on the battlefield."

"Who is ambushing them?" Frodo opened his eyes wide and looked at the Harad who fell to the ground in the middle below. Many Harads wanted to rush to the ambushers, but the commander of the ambushers clearly thought of this. The archer hiding in the concealed place suddenly appeared on the enemy's charging path, and fired several rounds in succession, instantly dissolving the Harad's counterattack, leaving only a corpse full of arrows in front of the sloping hillside.

"This is probably a Gondor. But we still don't get close to them. On the battlefield, who knows what nervous soldiers will do." Bilbo patted Frodo on the shoulder: "Hurry up and go. We have to speed up and join other people."

"Look there!"

With the neigh of the beasts, two huge mammoths rushed out of the forest. The mammoth screamed, its fangs proboscis swung frantically, and rushed to the nearby ambushers with heavy steps. The ground rumbling under the footsteps of the mammoth. A saddle made of animal skins and wooden stakes is fixed on the back of the mammoth behemoth. In the saddle sits seven or eight Harolds. Holding the reins in both hands, the reins are fixed to the ears of the mammoth.

"It's a mammoth." Bilbo stared cautiously at the behemoth rampaging on the battlefield: "Come on, we should go. It's too dangerous here."

"Yes... we should go." Frodo nodded, "But we still don't meet other people, Bilbo. There are humans everywhere, and the Ring of Power is too temptation for them. If... if human heroes like Boromo can't resist the temptation of the Ring of Power, who can stop it?"

Suddenly, an arrow crossed the sky, and an archer in the saddle was shot, screaming and fell down. The rider controlling the elephant quickly turned around to prevent himself from being shot by a bow and arrow.

The three hobbits slowly backed away. After discovering the appearance of the mammoth, the ambushers also began to retreat gradually. The number of them is wrong. There are about two hundred Luen people, just a small team, and there are fewer archers. After causing a lot of damage to the enemy, they did not continue to attack, and the war elephant did not continue to charge the ambushers. They seemed to want to protect themselves more, so they threw down the arrowed infantry and fled to the east along the river bank.

Suddenly, Frodo stopped.

A soldier in a dark green cloak appeared in front of him with a sword in his hand.

Soon, five more soldiers came out of the nearby bushes. They held swords and surrounded the Hobbits.

Sam wanted to draw out his dagger, but Bilbo pressed his wrist, and then took a step forward, grabbing Frodo's sleeve, pulling him behind him, stretching his arms back to block them behind him.

"Wait, you must be thinking something, but please allow me to say that we may have some misunderstandings." Bilbo glanced at the soldiers present, more soldiers came out from the nearby bushes, and one stayed. The man with dark blonde curly hair took off his hood, Faramo walked to the front of all the soldiers and looked down at Bilbo: "We are Hobbits, from Shire." Bilbo squeezed a smile on his face, he Said to the soldier leader, "Char, on the west side of the Misty Mountains, and also on the west side of Gondor. We are travelers and we are going to Gondor."

"There are no travelers here, only the minions of the Dark Lord." Faramo said coldly: "Travelers won't take this remote road."

"Because of the war." Bilbo said subconsciously: "The war, even in the Shire, we also know that the recent form is not very good. Humans in the North and the South are in trouble. We spent a lot of effort to cross the city. Khan, as a result, we and our companions were attacked by orcs and were forced to disperse. Before we set off, we discussed that we should not stop if we get into trouble. The road is too dangerous. We keep going and wait until Gondor. Join other people."

Faramo narrowed his eyes slightly: "So you chose a more dangerous path?"

"Rohan is caught in the flames of war, and we dare not walk along the west bank of the Anduin River."

"There are more enemies on the east bank of the river."

"At least not as many as in the West Bank." Bilbo paused and spread his hand: "Don't you know? When I walked to Rivendell, I heard that the wizard of Isengard recruited orcs, and right? Khan declared war. His troops rushed along the Fargon Forest to the river. I don’t know how he did it. My companion and I were attacked by the White Palm Orcs. Yes, White Palm, Saruman’s The orcs all have a white palm mark. It took us a lot of effort to escape. I don't know the situation on Rohan's side. We didn't see anyone along the east bank, so we decided to walk along this side."

"...As a traveler, you seem to know a little too much."

"This is what my elven friend told me." Bilbo rubbed the tip of his nose: "We passed Rivendell in the north on the way to Gondor. My friend told me that I saw it there. A wizard, the gray-robed wizard Gandalf, do you know him? I know Gandalf, and he warned me that there must be a lot of trouble along the way."

"Do you know Gandalf?"

"Yes, Gandalf." Bilbo nodded. "The last time I met him, it was in Rivendell."

"Do you know Boromo?" Faramore looked at Bilbo, who had a relaxed look on his face. At this moment, Faramo suddenly asked: "Is there any news about him?"

"Polomo? Ah, yes, he arrived at Rivendell about two months ago." Bilbo said without hesitation: "When I came back, he also left Rivendell. If he Without any trouble, I think he should be near Rivendell."

"Fifteen days ago, the northernmost sentry heard the sound of the Gondor's horn from the upper reaches of the river." The suspicion and hostility in Faramo's voice became a little less: "After that, no sentry heard anymore. No one noticed the sound of the horn, and no one noticed that Pormo appeared on the border of Gondor. It is impossible for some orcs to block his footsteps, and it is impossible for him to cause trouble...Tell me, why are you here? Gondor? In the era of turmoil, it is not a wise choice to appear."

"Because... I have a friend. The person he knows is in Gondor. He originally lived in the north and lived in the valley city. Do you know the valley? It is the city located at the foot of the lonely mountain." Bilbo stretched out Thumbs, pointing to the back, he thought of what Zelin said the last time he visited Shire: "He heard the news that Gondor had fallen into war, so he wanted to go to Minas Tirith and visit him. My friend. But he was too dangerous on the road alone, so I accompany him to set off with other people. Time has passed for a long time, and I don’t know if his friend is well."

"So, what's your friend's name?" Faramo narrowed his eyes slightly: "What's his friend's name?"

"His name is Zelin." Bilbo swallowed, and exhaled: "His friend is called...Tarion. It should be this name, unless my memory is bad."

"He didn't lie." said a ranger behind Faramo. The ranger took off his hood, revealing his shawl and short hair mixed with gray silk: "When I was fighting in Mordor, there was indeed a northerner named Zelin. The Ranger helped me a lot, he saved my wife. This...the hobbit, what has been said so far is true."

Frodo and Sam looked at the gray-haired veteran in surprise.

"It seems that they are not half-orc spies." Faramo raised his hand, and the nearby soldiers retracted the sword into the scabbard: "You are a veteran of the Black Gate."

"The wizard with the sword is in Rohan." Frodo said: "He went to Rohan."

"Wait, you said just now that this man named Zelin is coming to Gondor, why is he in Rohan now?" Faramo suddenly asked, "Are you really friends of that wizard?"

"The original plan was to come to Gondor together, but... after Gandalf told Zelin Rohan, he went to Rohan first to deal with Saruman." Bilbo took a deep breath. "He said that Rohan needs him more, saying that after Rohan’s problem is resolved, he will come to Minas Tirith to join us. Let us first go to Baicheng and help him listen to Talion’s news. You are Talion. Fortunately, Zelin told me that your battle in Mordor was really a thrilling battle."

"Faramo." At this time, a ranger walked to Faramo: "The orcs outside Osgilius have changed. They need your command and reinforcements."

"I understand." Faramo nodded and looked at Bilbo again: "You can go to Gondor with us, but you'd better be as friendly as you declared. Talion, you guard them."

Chapter 2462: The Captured Guru

Faramore's soldiers spotted the Hobbits and his party, but they did not notice. In another place, there were also eyes staring at their every move.

"Damn it, who would have thought that there would be a group of humans here?" The Dragonborn squatted halfway behind a rock, watching the Gondor people marching southward at a faster speed along the river: "They took the other people, we We have to find a way to rescue them. There are not many human beings. Maybe we can take advantage of the night when they set up camp and find a way to sneak in."

Virginia looked at the Dragonborn in disbelief: "Are you crazy? This is human!"

"So what? After passing through Rohan, did we encounter fewer enemies? Those humans wearing masked scarves, I thought I had met good people, but the **** shot me arrows when they saw me. ."

"This is different." The chief mage sighed, "I remember you didn't show off before that you once broke into the Skyrim Embassy in Somo. There is a wood spirit in the embassy who is willing to help you attract attention? You will hate it. Somo, do you want to kill that wood elf? The humans we met before were allegiance to Mordor. These humans have the white tree mark on their bodies. They are humans from Gondor, Mordor's dead opponent. You see, they didn't hurt Bill. Bo and Frodo. We can negotiate with them..."

"Don't go forward." Gnaiya held the chief mage's shoulders and asked her to squat by her side again: "There is a secret sentry fifty meters ahead of the left. This general of Gondor is very cautious. His team Scouts are everywhere on the side. Talos is on. I don’t like this situation. These soldiers are very nervous. They may see everyone as an enemy, including the Hobbit."

"Perhaps, I can negotiate with these people when their vigilance is relaxed in a safe place," Virginia said, and she wiped her glasses on the corner of her robes. The Gondor are too far away from her, she can't see clearly without glasses: "I have dealt with the Gondor. They are not unreasonable people."

"Your past refers to thirty years ago." Long Yi said blankly: "And the group of people who dealt with you are now old people."

Suddenly, Fried's voice appeared in his ears: "I found a strange creature."
