Chapter 142 No More Words Needed

Darkbrook Valley.

This is a valley on the east side of the Misty Mountains. A rapid stream falls from the mountain pass, forming a stream-like waterfall at the north end of the valley, rushing into a lake in the northeast of the valley.

Its name is Mirror Shadow Lake.

The East Gate of Moria is located on the hillside on the west side of Mirror Shadow Lake. Here, damaged dwarf statues can be seen everywhere.

But today, this place welcomes a group of unusual guests.

Large pieces of armor shone with golden light in the sun, and the momentum even overshadowed the brilliance reflected by the lake.

Rumble...

There was a vibration sound coming from the mountain.

Plop.

Levi rolled out of the gate.

When the dazzling sunlight shone on him, Levi realized-wait, why is this a big downward slope? !

"Oh-ah, ugh!"

The armor clanged and made close contact with the stairs, and the figure bounced and rolled on the stairs. It took a long time to stop and landed on the soft grass.

Huh--

Levi took a deep breath, climbed up from the grass under the stairs, and patted the dust on his body.

Although the process was a little embarrassing, he finally got out.

It's a pity that he couldn't stop the Balrog in the end and let the guy cross the bridge.

The air outside is still good.

In front of the grass, Levi couldn't help but sigh:

"Ah-this grass, this sunshine, this waterfall, this lake, this... elves?"

A face froze.

I saw an army of fully armored elves holding the flag of Loslórien standing quietly by the Jingying Lake, with a serious face and a formation, without any shaking, like a stone.

"Why is there an army of elves here?"

"Dear ally, we are here with support!"

An elf waved and shouted loudly in the distance, with an unstoppable smile on his face.

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

And can you please stop laughing!

Beside the elf who shouted loudly, a noble and beautiful lady slowly nodded at Levi. She was wearing a long skirt and walking barefoot on the ground, but she was still clean and not stained with any dirt.

"Hello, madam--"

Levi shouted at the first time: "But now is not the time to talk. Listen to me, let the army evacuate quickly, he is behind me!"

He?

Listening to Levi's shouting, the elves were really a little confused.

Who is the "he" in the mouth of the ally?

Soon, this question had an answer.

As the mountain shook more and more obviously, there was a scorching heat rising from the ground, and the elves' breathing unconsciously became heavier, and they even vaguely couldn't hold the weapons in their hands.

A heat enveloped the hearts of all the elves.

Natural enemy

That was the existence that was called the 'elves' nemesis' thousands of years ago: the Balrog.

He is not only the nemesis of the elves, but also the natural enemy of all living things. No one on this continent can be higher than him, including Soran and the five wizards, and the Lady of the Golden Forest in front of him.

Boom!

Along with the heat, there are also war drums from the abyss of the underground, and the hell army it represents.

Boom!

The rocks are broken, and flames erupt from them, rushing straight into the sky, followed by two charred giant claws, which open the exit and crush the door frame.

Roar! !

For the first time, the huge wings are fully spread out in the sky, almost blocking the sun and turning this place into a cloudy day.

"Ah...Ah--!"

When the sunlight on the face turned into fire, the thick smoke and the pungent smell of sulfur filled the entire valley. Finally, an elf couldn't bear the fear, screamed on the spot, and stepped back several steps.

The Balrog disrupted the elves' formation with just one appearance.

For these young elves, the Balrog was too exciting.

Just like Orc faced Levi, the elves' fear of the Balrog was almost engraved in their souls, and only the strong could defeat it.

Not to mention them, even the elves in the Holy Land of Valinor who were really capable of fighting did not dare to fight the Balrog.

"Maintain the formation and hold the position!"

Behind Lady Galadriel, the captain of the elves who was in charge of leading the army was the first to recover and turned to shout at the army.

However, the Balrog did not even look at them. From beginning to end, there was only one person in his eyes.

"I said, you can't escape!"

"Ridiculous guy, think you can escape by calling the elves as reinforcements? You will all die here today!"

The flame condensed in his hand.

Levi knew this move too well.

After fighting for so long, when the Balrog raised his hand, Levi knew what he wanted to do in the next second.

He memorized it.

Swish——

He drew out his long sword, stood in front of the elves, and swung forward to fight the fire demon head-on, knocking the flaming long sword in his hand away.

At this moment, Levi could clearly feel that the sword in his hand was more handy than ever before, and the blow just now was heavier than any time in the past few days.

‘Nemesis’ seemed to have sensed something, and the light on it was brighter and more powerful.

“That is the sword made by our relatives…”

The elves looked at the long sword that faintly resonated with their souls, and their hearts throbbed.

“Who do you think you are, a weak guy…”

Ding!

The long sword and the fire demon’s weapon intersected, rubbing against each other, producing bursts of light and scattered flames, and the rune ring on his hand kept flashing a dazzling orange-yellow glow, removing the fire demon’s impact.

Golden ring…?

Lady Galadriel suddenly put down her raised hand, feeling a little alert.

She chose to wait and see for now.

Led by Galadriel, the elves were silent for the time being.

But on this side, after all, the power of the Balrog had the upper hand. While fighting with the knife, his other hand condensed the whip that had been prepared at an extremely fast speed, and wrapped it around Levi's feet - —

This guy also learned how to sneak attack!

With a hula, Levi was thrown onto the hillside and flew high into the sky.

The Balrog on the ground was looking forward to it, clenching the sword in his hand, staring at the falling Levi, preparing to charge up a heavy blow.

However, the Balrog is not the only one that cannot be used underground.

Whoosh——

A burst of fireworks sounded, and Levi instantly put on his elytra. After using the fireworks to provide power, he quickly switched back to the breastplate. Using this kinetic energy, he sprinted to the Balrog almost instantly with lightning speed, smashing him like a missile. On his head, he took this opportunity to hit him hard!

Boom!

No one could react, and the Balrog was knocked to the ground with a loud bang, and his whole big head sank directly into the soil.

At this moment, he only felt that his head was buzzing. 【-103】

The heavy sword carrying the accelerating kinetic energy directly cut off one-tenth of the Balrog's vitality.

It's just that the effects of forces are reciprocal.

When Balrog was hit hard, Levi also felt a powerful kinetic energy, and his health bar was more than half empty.

He wasn't beaten, he was thrown.

He quickly gnawed on a golden apple.

Not much more.

There is not much golden apples or food left, there is really nothing left to eat.

"Damn!!!"

In the tens of thousands of years since its birth, the Balrog's rage has never been as intense as it is today.

"Since you can't kill me, and I can't kill you..."

The Balrog pulled his head out of the soil, suddenly laughed loudly and said:

"Then I will kill all your friends and relatives, and destroy everything you care about!"

roar!

Ignoring Li Wei, the Balrog turned around and rushed towards the elven army.

At this moment, Lady Galadriel, who had been watching, finally made a move.

She raised her right hand high, and something shining like a star flowed between her fingers, blooming with silvery white brilliance.

Boom!

The next moment, Balrog's figure suddenly stopped in front of the army, as if he had hit some obstacle, unable to move forward even an inch.

Ring of Water - Neng Ya.

Levi stared at the thing between his fingers.

Nenya, one of the three elven rings, has the power of "understanding, creation and protection". It has always been because of the existence of this ring that Lothlórien is full of vitality and can grow trees like the Mallon Tree. The characteristic species of Valinor have become what people call the 'golden forest'.

Later, after Sauron's main ring was destroyed, Nengya also lost his power, and the golden forest under its protection soon fell into desolation.

In a sense, this ring is equivalent to Levi's territorial system, maintaining the rules of a territory. It is precisely because of its existence that the Golden Forest can be as prosperous as it is today.

"What power is this?"

Enma felt a little strange.

He has been asleep since the end of the First Era and has no idea what is happening in the outside world.

These rings of power were only created in the Second Age.

Seeing that the Balrog was stopped, Levi also relaxed and took a breath.

Lady Galadriel herself is very powerful, and with the Ring of Water in her hand at the moment, it is not difficult to restrain a Balrog...

You know, there is a lake next to it.

As the Ring of Water began to show its power, Galadriel's body glowed with a holy white light, which became brighter and brighter, mixed with a hint of silvery white similar to the stars.

"Return to your sleeping place, Balrog."

Lady Galadriel slowly spoke:

"Wherever the stars can shine, there is no place for you!"

Boom!

The silvery white light became more and more obvious, forming a barrier to isolate the Balrog.

"go back!"

An angry shout forced the Balrog to take several steps back.

But that's all.

The powerful power contained in the ring may be able to restrain the Balrog, but it cannot truly threaten him.

Even if the distance is close enough, the extremely high temperature of the Balrog can in turn pose a threat to the ring.

Very dangerous.

Levi raised his sword and stood in front of Balrog again.

"I still want to say that-"

"You can't get through here!"

Break armor!

Boom!

After charging up a blow, the Balrog couldn't help but retreat again. Without giving up this opportunity, Levi locked onto the Balrog and continued to slash at him with one sword after another, forcing him step by step to the gate of Moria.

The fire disappeared from the sun and shrank back into the shadowy gates of Moria.

"I'll be back."

Balrog grabbed the door frame and shouted unwillingly:

"I'll come back and destroy everything!"

In front of the door, he stared at Li Wei, leaned down, faced Li Wei with a big face, and said slowly:

"By then, you won't be the only one facing me."

"We will find you..."

The power of oppression is getting stronger.

Darkness has returned to his shadow-filled home.

However, the drumming did not stop.

Lady Galadriel's radiance gradually disappeared, her body went limp, and she collapsed on the ground, gasping for air.

Levi hurried over to check the situation.
