Chapter 401: Advance into Mordor
Unexpectedly, after being hit by Levi and Xiaofen's passionate combination skills, Soran was not hurt at all. He dispersed the black mist around him, rushed forward suddenly, jumped high, and swung the mace.
Caught off guard, Xiaofen was hit hard and staggered back several steps, almost throwing Levi off.
This blow was so heavy that Xiaofen's scales became a little loose and her health bar dropped a little.
"To deal with the Ringwraiths and the armies of Mordor."
After giving the instructions, Levi immediately jumped down and fought with Sauron again in person.
Xiaofen suddenly flew away to deal with the high-value large target in Mordor. He also knew that he seemed to be no match for this guy whose black armor was not as good-looking as Levi's.
The battlefield remained noisy, and the scale of the fighting was among the largest in the entire era.
The attacking human coalition was magnificent, silvery white and shining, spread all over the war plains, seemingly ready to recreate the powerful army of the Last Alliance War, which was known as the swan song of Middle-earth.
The other side was like an undercurrent that surged up in the pitch-black thunderstorm night where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.
There were Orcs, Uruks, Trolls, Ologs, the native spiders of Mordor in the valleys of the south, and ferocious beasts in the breeding grounds of the north.
The mountains and plains were filled with countless roaring evil creatures.
However, even so, anyone can see at this moment that Mordor is clearly at a disadvantage.
The human coalition pierced into the army of Mordor like a sharp sword, forcing it back towards the Black Gate little by little.
With Levi as the tip of the blade, as he pushed Sauron back step by step, the army behind him also followed suit and advanced violently, pushing away the enemies on both sides.
Unstoppable.
As the coalition forces continued to advance into Mordor, the battle area expanded and the number of enemies they faced increased.
In the open space in front of the Black Gate, they only had to deal with enemies on one side.
But inside the Black Gate, their pressure came from all directions, and there was no place without enemies.
The further you go in, the greater the pressure becomes and the tighter the enemy's encirclement becomes.
It is difficult to say whether Sauron was really defeated by Levi, or he deliberately showed a weak trend and retreated naturally to lure the human army into the encirclement.
But his plan failed again. This army was like an iron wall standing on the coast. No matter how the black waves washed over it, it remained standing.
But in another place, this is not the case.
In the Pass of Cirith Ungol near Minas Morgul, shadows gradually crept from beneath the earth to the surface.
"The taste of flesh and blood..."
Shi Luo, who was recuperating deep underground, felt the touch of spider silk, and then smelled a sweet, plump and tender scent that belonged only to weak prey.
So she slowly climbed up with her injured body.
He saw his partner, Gollum.
And the two hobbits brought by Gollum, the three of them seemed to be arguing about something.
What are you arguing about - it doesn't matter. Talking a few more words can make the food more lively and delicious.
After a while, one of the fat ones left.
Gollum praised the relatively thin hobbit and hooked the spider silk.
Then somewhere it suddenly hid behind a rock and disappeared.
Only one hobbit remained in front.
Shelob knew her chance had come, and she rushed out to attack the remaining hobbit, entangled him in her web in an instant.
Because she was already seriously injured and in urgent need of food to recover, she even neglected to be alert to what was behind her.
The spider captures Frodo, with Sam following behind.
"Get out of my way!"
As a loud roar was heard, an incredibly sharp dagger suddenly pierced into Shilo's abdomen. Shilo screamed in pain, and the sound was heart-wrenching.
While Shelob was retreating, Sam immediately cut the spider web wrapped around Frodo and gave him a bottle of milk.
"Levi said that this thing can detoxify. I was so thirsty along the way that I didn't want to drink it. Please wake up soon, Mr. Frodo..."
roar!!
Frodo did not open his eyes, but Shelob reacted quickly. She roared and pounced on him again, intending to prey on Sam first.
But when Sam raised the dagger of unknown origin in his hand, she was afraid again.
"Get out of here, you evil spider! The sword in my hand was given to me by the legendary Levi from the north for this journey. If you don't want to die from it, leave now!"
It would have been better if I hadn’t said it.
As soon as this name was mentioned, Shila became angry.
I can't beat him, but I can't beat you?! "The man he's talking about isn't here, don't be afraid!" Just at this moment, Guru was fanning the flames again.
So Shiluo endured the new wounds and the pain from the old wounds caused by hearing that man's name and stepped forward again.
Just as she was about to pounce, and Sam was unwilling to move because he was standing in front of Frodo, and a life-and-death fight was about to take place, a ray of light suddenly appeared.
It was Frodo. He woke up, and when he saw the evil big spider rushing towards him, he remembered Lady Galadriel's instructions, and he immediately took out the crystal bottle full of hope that Galadriel had given him. The light stung Shelob's eyes and almost blinded her.
Then, Sam's sword of travel given by Levi and the "Sting" in Frodo's hand stabbed Shelob together.
She screamed and hit the rocks behind her, her strength gradually fading.
The old injuries inflicted by Levi recurred again, and coupled with the multiple severe injuries caused by the two hobbits at this time, Shelob suddenly realized that her destruction was coming.
She struggled to get up and tried to escape.
Is it possible that the great Shiloh will perish here today? She was not willing to accept that her end would be so hasty.
As the offspring of Ungoliant, she had eaten humans, elves, dwarves, and almost all creatures in Middle-earth. She had also given birth to countless hybrid offspring who occupied the Black Forest and the valleys south of Mordor, and even made Sauron feel fearful.
She once wove a large net to catch powerful prey, and she also wove a web of fate to tease innocent lives.
But now, there was another big net that entangled her tightly, and she couldn't move.
That person—he had expected it.
From the moment he came to this pass and severely injured himself with that terrifying sword, he had already made plans for today.
He had expected this day! The net of fate suddenly tightened.
Shelob was filled with regret and a deep fear of that evil that most creatures dared not speak its name.
"Die, evil spider!"
The sounds in my ears gradually became blurred.
Shiluo tried his best to crawl deeper into the pit, but he still couldn't avoid being hit by two more swords.
She fell into the abyss, disappeared into darkness, and became silent.
"You're next, Gollum!"
Sam did not forget the culprit who caused all this, but when he looked to where Gollum was hiding, he found that Gollum had already run away.
"You're so quick!"
call--
The danger was over and Sam breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the dagger in his hand, thoughtfully.
"It's amazing. I can feel that this sword has a magical power. When I picked it up to face the giant spider, it was as if something was helping me."
“I want to give it a name…”
Thinking of one of Levi's famous swords, 'Buster', Sam suddenly said, "How about calling it 'Spider Buster'?"
"That is a good name, Sam," agreed Frodo.
The two hobbits continued their journey.
But without Gollum's guidance, the way forward suddenly became uncertain.
They walked out of the cave in a low-key manner, having already prepared themselves for the hordes of Mordor before them, but when they looked in the direction of Mount Doom, they found that the hordes that were supposed to be there had been moved away, all gathering to the north.
It's completely empty here.
Just as the two were feeling delighted, suddenly, a hand grabbed Frodo.
The two were startled and subconsciously turned around to fight back, but they both failed. This guy who came suddenly was very skilled and brutal, with great strength. He knocked them to the ground in just a few moves.
Sam looked up and found that this powerful guy was actually a blind and lame Uruk.
He drew his dagger again and tried to rush forward to fight back.
But at this time, another group of Orcs stationed in the Tower of Cirith Ungol beside the pass were alarmed.
At the command of Lame Uruk, they all gathered around.
Apparently, this cripple was the leader of this Tariok.
Sam and Frodo knew they had no chance.
Even though the two of them fought desperately, they were facing a whole team after all, so they were eventually captured.
The weapons on the two men were quickly confiscated and handed over to the lame leader.
"The master said that if we catch any hobbits, we should send them over intact."
Thanks to Sauron's orders, Sam and Frodo were saved from death.
However, when the lame leader saw Sam's dagger - or more precisely, when he saw the words on his dagger, he suddenly changed his mind.
"Wait, take them to my room first. Don't reveal a single piece of information. I have to torture them first to find out the secret information these two spies have."
After finding a plausible excuse to send his subordinates away, the lame leader once again sternly emphasized: "This is also the master's will. Anyone who dares to violate it or asks about it casually will be considered a traitor and executed on the spot."
"For the master!" he said devoutly.
"For the Master!"
Oak, his subordinate, also recited the sentence.
