Chapter 177 Name
A large army set out from the wide square and marched quickly along the smooth road to Changhu Town.
There are also a few dwarves among them who just... happen to be able to help.
"Why didn't they call us?"
"Just a bunch of goblins. Maybe they thought it was unnecessary."
"That's true."
Inside the Lonely Mountain, the dwarves were discussing the earth-shaking and passionate call, speculating when the allied forces from the valley towns would be able to return. It was quite lively for a while.
But some people don't think so.
"I have something to report to the king."
A dwarf who was in charge of all matters in the industrial zone walked towards the meeting hall.
"The king is not here."
Balin, who was guarding the door, stopped him and said, "Let me do it."
"But..." The dwarf hesitated.
"Our king has temporarily handed over all matters to me before he went out. Please tell me if you have anything to say."
Balin, who was still wearing his armor, spoke with a rather resentful tone.
"And the king?"
"Your curiosity could be reduced a bit."
…
"I'm glad to be fighting alongside you again, Levi."
“I wish there were more times like this.”
Under the huge decorative supporting pillars of the Sky Road, or the extremely high viaduct, Thorin looked at the batches of soldiers being transferred upwards in an orderly manner on the elevators, and felt a sense of emotion.
"Haha, my accuracy has never been bad. I hope those guys can give me a good time." Dwalin waved the two throwing axes in his hands.
Fili agreed, "Me too. I've been training for too long, and there are no orcs to chop nearby. If I keep going like this, my sword will get rusty."
"Ahaha, my axe can't wait!"
"Okay, calm down, Gloin."
Levi pressed his hand, signaling the dwarf in front of him to calm down.
"What's wrong, Levi?"
Groin asked from behind.
Levi turned around in confusion: "Why are you here?"
"Where else could I be if I'm not here?" Gloin was confused.
"Then who is this..."
Li Weiyu turned around and pointed at the dwarf in front of him who was so excited that he was about to jump up.
Gloin slapped his head and said, "Oh! Look at my memory. I forgot to introduce him to you. He is my boy, Gimli. He just moved here from the Blue Mountains recently. He heard that you were going to attack the Orc town, so he decided to come and serve you no matter what."
"I see. You are quite energetic and will surely achieve great things in the future." Levi said, looking at the young Gimli.
Gloin burst into laughter when he heard this. He shouted, "Gimli, come and say hello to your uncle Levi!"
"stop!"
Levi quickly stopped him and changed the subject:
"Let's talk about offense."
Gimli... although he was still just a young boy to the dwarves present.
But the problem is, the child is already over 60 years old this year, so he can't be called uncle!
"What else is there to discuss? Haven't we already agreed that there are only a few main passages in the Orc Town? You and Bard already know them well. Let's just charge in and chop those goblins into pieces."
"Ahahaha, I know, of course, of course, this is not difficult..."
Routes, passages... these are certainly not a problem.
Even if we don't need to blow up the mountain to open a road, there are other ways.
Levi glanced at his map - there was an option on it called "Cave Map".
The so-called "cave map" is a record of the terrain beneath the surface. Not only the Orc Town, but also the routes of Moria are recorded in the cave map. It can ensure that at least you will not get lost again in the places you have passed.
As for the Orc Town, I had already run more than halfway through it when I was chasing the Goblin King there last time.
"Did you all bring enough food?" Levi casually changed the subject.
"Of course, no one will be short of food. Everyone brings enough rations for many days, the kind that will hardly go bad."
"That's good."
Levi reminded everyone again: "Remember to come to me if you get hurt. We have no shortage of treatment supplies."
As long as everyone in this army survives, they can be rescued.
The trivial matters were quickly passed over.
Judging from the map, if we march towards the Misty Mountains from the ground, considering various obstacles and possible problems during the march, it will take at least ten days or even a month.
——That’s already in the past.
You may not feel anything when the road is being built, but when it really starts to work, its efficiency will surprise everyone.
A pure road that transcends all rugged terrain and obstacles and eliminates any interference from unexpected factors.
They were not in a hurry, just moving forward at a constant speed. The distance of nearly 500 kilometers was covered within a few days. This was without using any means of transportation such as mine carts, otherwise it would have been even faster.
Boom! The soldiers lined up neatly at the end of the road.
It had only been a few days since the orc town was dug up and the army assembled at the gate, so the goblins inside hadn't reacted yet.
Li Wei crossed the army formation and connected the road to the mountain.
After a moment.
Boom!
There were bursts of explosions.
On this day, the goblins suddenly discovered that they could actually see light from the outside world underground.
When I woke up, the sky had fallen.
"Get up, you bastards!"
At the sound of a command, the goblins who were still in a daze immediately came to their senses and organized a counterattack. They crawled out from the top of the cave, underground, and from various caves, densely packed like a swarm of ants, holding up scrap copper and iron in their hands to block the way and rush towards the main road.
At a glance, the number is at least twice that of the army in the valley.
The battle happened quite abruptly.
Faced with the ferocious goblins that were rushing towards them and making sharp screams, many people who were going to the battlefield for the first time could not help but hold their weapons and shields tightly, for fear that they would slip.
Unlike previous training, this time even the slightest mistake could mean the difference between life and death, and no one could remain calm.
A tense atmosphere was brewing in the formation.
——Until a black figure stood at the huge gap in the mountain, holding a sword, dividing the light and darkness there. He raised the long sword emitting azure light and shouted:
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
So people found their anchor.
"Follow me!"
Levi shouted and rushed forward.
Bud was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that something was wrong, and quickly turned around and shouted, "Wait, don't..."
The timing is not right, don't rush in! They all came out on their own, don't run in!
However, it was too late.
The soldiers raised their weapons excitedly, roared at the top of their lungs, and charged forward closely following the figure. Their anxiety and fear all turned into fighting spirit, and their faith was once again elevated.
Bard gritted his teeth and decided that after this battle, he would capture his lord and give him a good lesson even if it cost him his life.
Seeing that the momentum could not be stopped, he had no choice but to draw his sword and rush forward with the army.
"All right."
Thorin spread his hands helplessly and drew the sword he had forged himself from his waist.
"Let's go too!"
"For peace and tranquility!"
Boom!
A goblin flew up in front.
When Levi drew his sword, the goblins had already recognized the person in front of them. And when he collided with thousands of goblins alone, some of the goblins had already lost their composure and could not stop retreating.
The momentum of their charge was abruptly stopped by one person, and they even showed signs of disintegration.
"A bunch of rubbish, if anyone dares to take another step back I will chop him into minced meat!"
At this time, the voice that organized the goblins came again from behind.
After these words were spoken, the goblins were at a loss as to whether to move forward or backward. After thinking it over, they could only bite the bullet and go around the black figure, hoping that the army behind him would be easier to deal with.
So a vacuum zone with an extremely exaggerated radius appeared around Levi. Like repelling magnets, the goblins were pushed away and could only pass through the edge.
Levi ran several steps into the cave, but couldn't find anyone giving orders to the goblins.
Whoosh——
At this moment, suddenly an arrow shot from behind, passed Levi's side, and went straight into the depths of the cave.
Then the voice never appeared again.
"Done!" Bud shouted from behind.
"Well done!" Levi waved his hand and responded.
Sharpshooter Bader once again proved the authenticity of his title today.
At this time, the large number of goblins that bypassed Levi finally crossed the distance that was neither long nor short, and officially collided and joined forces with the army in the valley.
"——For the Lord!!"
The soldiers raised their weapons high and shouted as they swung at the enemy.
How can it be so tough! The Goblin Vanguard looked at this elite army in full armor with horror, thinking that their airborne commander was definitely a big fool.
It would be a bit reckless to come out of the cave so hastily.
Boom——
The goblins' first wave of attack ended, and the two sides fell directly into a melee of hard power competition after the first handover.
“Ugh!!”
A soldier was surrounded by more than five goblins. He was crushed to the ground with a thud. His armor clanked and he felt tingling all over his body.
Falling? No! "For our Lord Levi!"
With courage resonating in their hearts, the soldiers shouted and stood up. When Levi's name sounded, the goblins shuddered all over, and fear spread in their hearts, causing their bodies to stiffen for a moment.
Even if that person is not nearby.
