Magic Journey from Hogwarts

Page 220

"It's too high up there, there's no way to escape." Balin objected.

"That's our only chance, we can only give it a go." Sorin said, leading everyone to tiptoe up the aisle.

But when they fled to the guard room, they saw corpses covered in cobwebs everywhere.

The exit was blocked by boulders, dozens of dwarves were starved to death here, and even a few babies could be seen.

"The bones of our compatriots." Balin said in a heavy voice, "They must have come here with great hopes."

"Shocking! This is the price of hope turning into despair." Aaron pursed his lips. "There should be no other way here, or there is only one way we can go. Go back and kill Smaug."

"All of us are no match for it," Dewalin said. "We can hide here for a few days, but if we go out, we will probably die from the flames."

"That's better than waiting to die here." Aaron spread his hands, "If you fight to the death, you still have a chance to survive, but if you stay here, you will definitely die.

You and your fellow dwarves will remain in this hopeless place forever in mummified corpses, but I am sure I will not die.

You may not believe it, but this place is not a desperate situation for me. "

Bilbo believed in Aaron, he had seen Aaron's magic, and if anyone could escape from Smaug it must be him.

Chapter 266 The Awakening of the Dwarf Prince

"Sorin." Aaron leaned against the wall and looked at him meaningfully, "What are you going to do? Before Gandalf leaves, please ask me to protect you. My answer is within my ability.

If you choose to stay here and die, I will take Bilbo and escape, as I have promised his safety. "

"Thank you." Bilbo shrugged his nose, flattered.

"But if you choose to fight Smaug to the death, I will fight by your side too, and do my best to keep everyone alive."

Sorin looked at the bones all over the floor, and said in a daze, "I won't die like this, curled up, struggling, dying.

We lure Smaug to the furnace and fight him to the death. "

"Have you decided?" Allen asked with a smile.

Thorin nodded and looked at the nine dwarves following him, "Let's split up and lead it to the furnace.

If everything is destined to burn, then we will also go to the fire together. "

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

"As expected of a dwarf prince, it takes a lot of courage to make this decision." Aaron applauded, "Thorin Oakenshield, you have not let me down."

After saying that, Aaron took out the Aken gem and suspended it in mid-air with the levitation spell.

The milky white light illuminated the dim guard room, and the dwarves looked at this beautiful king gem with extremely pious eyes.

"Arkon Gem." Sorin murmured incredulously, "You have it."

Aaron shrugged. He never said he didn't get it.

"I don't think there should be anything more morale-boosting than this at this time."

"Indeed it's gone." Thorin stretched out his right hand excitedly, and found that he couldn't touch it in embarrassment.

Snapped!

Aaron snapped his fingers, and the Arkan gem fell into his hand.

"Sorry, I can't give it to you just yet."

"Why?" Thorin glared. "It should be mine."

"That's right, the Arken Stone is yours." Aaron didn't deny it, but changed the topic, "But Smaug said that the Arken Stone will eat your heart."

"Do you believe the words of the evil dragon?"

"But you drew your sword against us for this stone."

Thorin was speechless for a moment. He was really impulsive at the time, and he shouldn't have drawn his sword to his friend.

However, the status of the Aken gem in the dwarves is the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, which is related to whether he can inherit the throne in a legitimate way, and there is no room for loss.

"If it's because of this, I apologize to you."

"It's all right." Bilbo smiled. "We understand the importance of the Arken Gem to you. It may be more important than your life."

"But because of this, we are worried about whether you will become another person because of this stone." Aaron said earnestly.

His worry was not unreasonable. Sorin's stubbornness is rare in the world. Such a prince who has been down for half his life becomes a king with great wealth overnight, and his mood may undergo a huge change. Maybe compared to his grandfather Thorne would go even further.

"I won't." Thorin shook his head slowly, "I promise."

Hearing this, Aaron hesitated for a while, and put the Aken gem into his pocket.

The rest of the people watched his actions in astonishment, and Thorin felt even more betrayed.

The atmosphere has been rendered here, shouldn't you give me the gem, and then everyone will work together to slay the dragon?

"I'll give it to him, but after it's safe." Aaron said embarrassingly. "After all, I'll be close to death. If something happens to Sorin, I'll give this stone to Kili."

"Gaius." Dwalin looked at him angrily, "This is not appropriate."

Aaron raised his eyebrows and brought the gem to Solingen, "You make the decision."

Thorin reached out and touched the Arken gem, a struggle flashed in his eyes, he was silent for a long time before looking at Aaron solemnly, "I will leave it to you for safekeeping.

If I die, I will give it to Fili, and if Fili dies, I will bring it back to Kili, so that he can inherit the throne.

Balin, Dwalin, you..."

"Needless to say, Sorin." Balin pretended to be relaxed and smiled, "My old bones may die before you, but there is one thing, my loyalty to the king will not change."

"That's it, King Loyalty." Dwalin said vowedly, and the others nodded silently.

Next, Thorin divided the team into four groups and left the guard room in groups of three.

However, Aaron offered to act alone and secretly covered everyone's safe arrival at the furnace.

Thorin led Bilbo and Balin through the passage from the front, and was discovered by Smaug as expected.

"Run! Run! Run for your life!

You have nowhere to hide. "

A neck tens of meters long emerged from the darkness, and a huge dragon head appeared in front of several people.

"Look behind you, little bug."

The three dwarves shouted, and Smaug's attention was drawn, and the three of them slipped through a doorway.

Smaug roared and threw himself on the three dwarves.

"Hey! Here!" Dwalin yelled, and seeing Smaug look away, he pulled Fili and Nori into a run.

Smaug was about to give chase when two dwarves ran past him.

Can this be tolerated?

The fiery dragon's breath spewed out from the mouth, forcing the two of them to run away and jump into the cable car to escape the raging flames.

Seeing that there was no one around, Smaug sniffed the air, and chased in the direction of Thorin Oakenshield.

In a wide corridor, Thorin kept running wildly, without even noticing the entrance of the smelting room.

"This way, Thorin," cried Bilbo.

Thorin heard the sound and reacted immediately, but before he could move a step, Smaug appeared at the end of the corridor, brewing his dragon's breath.

Silently counting the distance, Thorin also knew that he couldn't outrun Smaug's Dragon Burn, so he told Bilbo to follow Balin and then turned and jumped into the mine.

Barely dodging the dragon's flame, Thorin dragged the seat under the mine shaft and kept falling.

Before he could recover, Smaug was after him, huge enough to slip into a mine shaft.

Just when it was about to bite Thorin, Dwalin chopped down the corresponding minecart with an axe, and the seat that Thorin was holding pulled him up quickly, barely escaping from the edge of the dragon's mouth.

Seeing this, Smaug turned around, biting the rope that held the seat as Thorin rose.

"Tsk! I have to admit that the mining technology of dwarves is really not an ordinary profession." Aaron's voice came from the side, and he turned his head and saw him sitting on another seat as if nothing had happened, leisurely wandering in the mine swing.

"Thorin, you look like you need some help!"

"Don't talk nonsense," Thorin yelled.

"Okay." Aaron held out his index finger at Smaug, "Bone to pieces."

boom!

The reddish light hit the dragon's mouth, and Smaug felt like being pricked by a needle, subconsciously opened his mouth, and put Thorin on it.

Smaug didn't care, but looked at Aaron meaningfully, "Dragon Whisperer, your magic is a bit special, but unfortunately you are too weak."

"It's normal, after all, I'm only 14 years old." Aaron smiled shyly, "If I was 40 years old, I would kill you in minutes, believe it or not?"

"Unfortunately, you won't have that chance." Smaug said, opening his mouth, and the fiery breath came to his face.

Aaron immediately stretched out his right hand, and an ice-blue intermediate magic circle appeared in front of him, and a thick stream of water gushed out.

The water poured into Smaug's mouth before the flames sprayed out, the dragon's breath was forced to stop, and Smaug was choked to spit out a large amount of white steam.

"Damn you." Smaug roared angrily, raising his paw to slap it.

"Aaron." Seeing this, Sorin and the others above were filled with anger.

Swish!

The black and white vortex disappeared in a flash, and Aaron fell next to several people, "What do you want me to do?"

"You, you, you..." Dwalin looked at Aaron, and then at Smaug below, unable to speak incoherently.

"Magic!" Aaron explained casually, "It's just that it's hard to understand."

"The magic of teleportation." The corners of Sorin's eyes twitched slightly. He knew about wizards when he was a dwarf prince before, but he had never heard of wizards using such incredible methods.

Aaron: …

"Few people can learn it. I am a rare genius in the Gaius family, so it is a different matter."

"Roar!" Smaug growled from down the mine. "Where are you? Dragon Whisperer, where are you?"

Hearing this, Thorin and the few dwarves beside him looked at Aaron with complicated expressions, "You can also speak dragon language?"

"Uh...walking the rivers and lakes, you can't overwhelm yourself with too many skills!" Aaron said with a sneer.

"Gandalf found us a good teammate." Thorin sighed, and then glanced at Smaug who was still looking for someone in the mine, and decisively pushed down the lifting equipment beside him.

The lifting equipment fell quickly, hitting Smaug in the neck in no time.

"Let's go, it won't take him long."

"Wait a minute." Aaron looked at the deep mine, slowly waved his arms, and a large ice-blue magic circle covered the mine.

Half a minute later, a huge ice cube fell from the magic circle and smashed straight into the depths of the mine.

boom!

Several people clearly heard the sound of heavy objects hitting the skull, followed by the angry roar of the dragon.

"If you don't throw a few more, maybe you can smash it to death!" Fili said.

"Brother, time is not enough, and my magic power is not enough."

As the voice fell, ferocious flames surged up from the depths of the mine.

"Go, go quickly."

Thorin roared, leading everyone into the smelting room.

Everyone gathered here without leaving, but they were also very disappointed looking at the icy furnace.
