Chapter 1093: 1075 after one night

Chapter 1093 1075. After one night

??People looked warily at the two elves who suddenly appeared in the square.

?These newborn sons and daughters usually do not have any contact with ordinary people. At most, they buy wine in Changhu Town and transport it to the Woodland Kingdom. But this is still negotiated directly with the mayor, and the money is given directly to the mayor.

Legolas and Tauriel didn't care about the looks of the surrounding townspeople.

?Although elves are kind-hearted creatures, they are also different from each other. The elves in the woodland kingdom are more exclusive and have little contact with humans.

?The two elves walked through the busy crowd and walked quickly towards where Lan En and Bard were.

“Last night we saw the commander of this orc force, a strong one-eyed orc.”

Legolas shouted to the two of them before he could reach them.

“We wanted to intercept him and kill him, but after the pontoon at the entrance of the town was broken, he drove a boat onto the lake.”

??Bard stood up at a loss. He had never dealt with the elves before, and he didn't know that these two elves were fighting alongside them in the town last night.

?So he stood up and cast a somewhat confused look at Lan En. After receiving a response, he thanked Legolas and Tauriel.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were helping us deal with the orcs last night." Bard said sincerely, "Now everything is in chaos, we haven't even counted the specific number of casualties yet."

Legolas shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.

"I completely understand that you are in a difficult situation now. No one could have imagined that the actions of these orcs have reached such a rampant level."

“But you’d better be on your guard immediately.”

Legolas lowered his voice and looked around with pity, at the people who were surviving the disaster and those who were busy preparing for the rest of their lives.

“The orcs have begun to act unscrupulously, which means that the darkness in this land has reached a certain level. The dark forces are colluding with each other. Many things that were only heard in scary stories before may also take the opportunity to come out."

? Lan En didn’t know much about this, but Bard’s face turned ugly almost instantly.

?This land is located in the middle of the north of Middle-earth. To the west is the Kingdom of Angmar, which was destroyed by the northern kingdoms. It is the fortress established by the Witch-King of Angmar.

?To the east, there are the Dongyi people who are allied with the orcs.

? It is precisely because the existence of the Lonely Mountain cuts off the alliance between the two dark forces that the strategic location and geographical location are so critical. It is worthy for Gandalf to organize a restoration expedition for the Lonely Mountain dwarves.

?But today, when the Gushan area is so weak, the situation is not "the evil forces are cut off from the middle", but "two evil forces are attacking in the middle"!

?In the past, the Dongyi people and the Kingdom of Angmar were not part of the daily lives of people in Changhu Town.

?After all, they have lived in poverty and peace for a long time.

?But now it is obvious that the darkness is expanding day by day, and even enemies like orcs, who disappeared from this land earlier than the dwarves, have appeared, so it will not be surprising if other things appear.

?“But what else can we do?”

??Bard pinched his forehead and whispered feebly.

"We are so weak that we can't even gather a few decent warriors. Our home has been destroyed, and it's a problem to live anywhere in this weather, not to mention the lack of food and clothing. Even without the orcs, If anything, people may starve to death in winter.”

?Shelter, food and drink, defense.

??This is something that Bard needs to solve urgently. With the current weather, even a healthy person will get sick if he stays outside for a long time. What's more, the townspeople just received the biggest shock in their lives last night.

??And what’s even more terrifying is

??Bard's eyes couldn't help but look to the north. From the charred and collapsed remains of the building, he could see a lonely snow-capped mountain that was originally covered.

?“Sorry, we can’t be of much help here.”

Legolas opened his mouth, but closed it weakly.

?As an elite among the elves, his combat prowess is indeed commendable. But right now, Changhu Town clearly needs more than just combat power.

"But I saw the direction in which the orc leader left last night, probably towards the Kingdom of Angmar. I will go and investigate the situation."

?“Isn’t the Kingdom of Angmar destroyed?”

?Lan En raised his head and asked.

"It was breached, but we did not occupy it after we breached it. The environment there was no longer suitable for humans and elves to live long due to the invasion of darkness. Therefore, after we sealed the Witch Queen of Angmar, we were unable to carry out long-term operations there. control."

Legolas shook his head.

"I suspect that there may have been a resurgence there. Otherwise, how could there be such large-scale orc activities in the north?"

“They quietly passed through our surveillance in the dark forest and a series of defense lines, and appeared directly in Changhu Town to kill. This is wrong no matter how you think about it.”

"It would be good if you can pay attention to it." Lan nodded to Legolas, "It is better than not even being able to find the problem."

?After the elves and humans nodded to each other again, the elves were ready to leave.

?But at this moment, Bofur's anxious voice came from the busy crowd.

??"King's leaf sword grass! Who has king's leaf sword grass! Someone here is dying!"

"King's Leaf Sword Grass?" Tauriel, who had just taken two steps, turned around with a frown and walked up to the panicked dwarf. "What are you going to use it for?"

"Trauma! An arrow wound!" Bofur swallowed his saliva and spoke out of breath.

"One of our people was hit by an orc's arrow yesterday, and our doctor, he, he only now sees what the symptoms are, and he asked me to find this herb quickly."

"King's Leaf Sword Grass. Is it curing Morgul's Arrow?"

Legolas behind Tauriel almost took less than a second to react.

?The long and endless lives of the elves allowed Legolas to possess all kinds of knowledge and master various skills.

?Although he is a young elf who was born in the third era and is almost over 2,000 years old, his knowledge of herbal medicine is not ordinary.

Tauriel and Legolas looked at each other, and the handsome blond elf whispered.

"It seems that something happened in the old land of Angmar. It's a certainty. I just don't know to what extent."

The weapon of the Witch King of Angmar is the Blade of Morgul, and that evil weapon is now kept in Rivendell as physical evidence.

Although the evil of Morgul's Arrow is not as evil as Morgul's Blade, it is not something that can be obtained by orcs from just any place.

"No matter what, I'll save every one I can." Tauriel said to Legolas.

?The two elves nodded to each other and walked towards Bofur.

???Bard was also shouting here: "The king's leaf grass is a weed for pigs here. It's a big mess now. You can look for it yourself."

? Bofur couldn’t care about that much at this time.

??He happened to see a town citizen, leading his big fat pig that was lucky enough not to be killed by the fire and the orcs last night, towards the square that they considered safe.

The pigs raised by the townspeople seem to be of a good breed. Although they are fat and strong, their noses are not long. Compared with ordinary pigs, they look a bit honest and cute.

?The pig has a bunch of green grass with small white flowers hanging on its mouth, and its mouth is still chewing with juice overflowing.

Bofur quickly pulled the blades of grass from the pig's mouth that had not yet entered his mouth, held them in his hands, and ran into the square.

Tauriel and Legolas followed Bofur.

?In the waterway around the square, the sun is now gradually rising and reflecting the golden luster. It was a boat full of treasures that the mayor carried when he fled last night and fell off while paddling.

??However, these gold and silver lusters that can penetrate people's hearts were only found by two townspeople at this time, and they were salvaged one after another.

?Gold is very useful and can be used to rebuild towns and maintain life.

?But now we have just suffered a disaster, and even if we want to buy things with gold, there is no place to trade.

??Now the townspeople are tired, cold and hungry, so they have no energy to even salvage gold.

Kili's leg injury made him look like a corpse floating in water yesterday, but it seemed that the injury caused by Morgul's arrow was difficult to identify.

?After Oin, who was taking care of him, confirmed the injury, the king's leaf sword grass was almost immediately effective under the elves' medical skills.

?Although there was still a layer of cold sweat on Qili's face stuck to his hair caused by the pain, he could see a little more blood and ruddy color on his face.

?Even with the extraordinary tenacity of the Arda dwarf, he was able to walk on the ground in less than twenty minutes.

?Seeing that the two elves cured Kili, Chang Lake Town temporarily had another dwarf warrior who could equal ten to one, but neither Bard nor Lan's expressions were relaxed.

?Because there are still many unresolved problems.

"We can't stay any longer. The combination of cold, fright, and hunger will kill someone."

??Bard hurriedly walked around the ruins of Changhu Town, looking for all the blankets and clothes, and mobilized the townspeople to collect them too.

"This place is definitely unbearable." Lan agreed, "But do you still have somewhere to go?"

?“Yes” Bard responded simply at first, but then he sighed with difficulty. "Riverdale City."

“That city is different from Lake Town in that it was built with a large amount of stone. Even if it was conquered by Smaug in one day and left abandoned for a long time, I am sure that at least many buildings in that city will be intact.”

?“But the only problem is”

??Bud was holding the corner of a blanket pulled out from the ruins and looking towards the north.

?There is a lonely snow-capped mountain there, and River Valley City is at the foot of the snow-capped mountain.

?Lan En also followed his complicated gaze. He gently stated the problem.

?“Dale is too close to Smaug.”

“But now, there is no other way out.”

??Bard gritted his teeth and continued to pull the blanket out from the ruins.

"The dwarves have already set off. No matter what, Smaug will rekindle the war according to the prophecy. No matter how much he worries, it's useless!"
