Chapter 24 Lord of the Valley

A melodious, loud horn sounded from afar.

“They once galloped under the stars.”

For no reason, Levi thought of something.

Rumble——

The sound of horse hooves galloping, silver-gray torrents and silver-white figures passing by.

Levi was like a piece of driftwood entangled in the river at this moment, dividing the flowing water into two halves. However, after bypassing him, the rushing water immediately merged into one, swooping down without any hindrance.

All the soldiers' eyes were focused on the enemy in front of them, and no one distracted their eyes to look at the strange visitor Li Wei.

Wow——

In the blink of an eye, the silver-gray torrent collided with the Orc cavalry. In just a moment, the warg in the front row was staggered. The unfortunate Orc who fell was either trampled by the horse's hooves or killed by a knife, and was soon gone. sound.

One charge directly caused Oak's pursuit formation to collapse. They could no longer organize themselves and had to stop and fight on the spot.

However, the elves quickly changed their formation and hunted the Oaks in a more efficient way.

Whoosh!

An arrow accurately hit the Oak who was trying to escape. The rider was riding a horse and shooting at the same time. The arrows were all fired. Li Wei was amazed. If he had done the riding and shooting by himself, let alone the arrow hit. It would be nice not to fly to the horizon.

Bows, spears, knives, swords... various weapons are skillfully used in the hands of the elves. The number of Oaks continues to decrease, but it is always difficult to organize effective resistance.

There was no cry of killing, no excessive noise, only the collision of blades and armor, flesh and blood, and the screams of the orcs before they died.

All of this made Levi feel a little unreal.

Levi rode his horse and stopped on the hillside, watching the one-sided silent killing.

The army was defeated.

This word is really suitable to describe the scene at this moment.

Realizing that he could not defeat the enemy in front of him with his own lineup, the leader of the Oak team roared and retreated with the remaining men.

After symbolically hunting down a few Orcs that had fallen behind, the elves did not continue the pursuit, but quickly took care of the battlefield.

After a while, it seemed that they finally noticed Levi. The cavalry came straight over and surrounded Levi several times.

What's going on?

Just when Levi felt a little nervous, a tall elf walked out on a horse:

"Outsiders, I greet you, what do you call me?"

"Levi, an adventurer from the human towns to the west."

"Adventurer, why are you visiting this land?"

"I heard that the valley is the most beautiful place in Zhongzhou, and I want to come and see it."

"oh?"

The elf looked at Levi with some scrutiny in his eyes. After a moment, he said, "Then please come with us."

The entire journey was silent.

Levi followed the large army and kept moving forward.

After the initial greeting, no one had spoken to him. The elves around him were quieter than the others, so he could only open his inventory and pack his backpack to pass the time.

Although the camp system showed that Yougu's attitude towards him was friendly, the group of stuffy people around him still made Levi a little uneasy.

On the one hand, it can be said that military discipline is strict, but on the other hand, Li Wei can't find any reason to talk to him.

I can only stay silent all the way.

Until you enter a valley.

When we first entered the canyon, it was still a little dark due to the high mountains on both sides, but it didn't take long for the barriers on both sides to disappear.

Unconsciously, Levi controlled his horse and took two quick steps toward the exit.

Under the starlight, his pupils gradually widened, and Levi's vision suddenly became brighter. For the first time, he felt that the things that human eyes can hold are so limited. There are so many scenery, but he can only turn his head to look at it little by little. All methods are available at a glance.

"We formally welcome you, adventurer Levi."

The elf who had previously questioned Levi outside the valley dismounted lightly and looked at Levi.

"I heard that a powerful human wizard appeared in the wilderness of Eriador. He once built a castle overnight, and single-handedly killed a group of hundreds of Orcs. He called himself an adventurer."

While talking about the rumors he had heard from somewhere, the tall elf took off his helmet and looked at Levi meaningfully.

No, this rumor spread so quickly, even the elves know about it.

"It's not that exaggerated..."

Levi denied it repeatedly, raised his head, looked at the elf, and was suddenly stunned.

A very familiar face, especially the silver band on top of his head.

"Lord Elrond."

At this moment, an elf in regular clothes quickly walked down the steps next to him.

"Lindil." The tall elf nodded in response and handed the sword in his hand to Lindil.

hiss--

This name?

Levi suddenly turned his head and carefully looked at the elves around him.

No wonder it looked familiar, it turned out that this was the legendary Lord of Rivendell, Elrond.

The person next to him is Secretary Lin.

After a little settling of the troops behind him, the Lord of the Valley continued to say to Li Wei:

"Since a few days ago, the nearby Oak traces have been extremely active. They can be seen everywhere from the Last Bridge to the Xiangshui River. This is very unusual. I think there must be something or someone attracting them. "

Don't worry, the orcs will come again in a year.

"Now it seems that the reason has been found."

"Well, I think it's because of me. I've killed too many Orcs recently and was wanted by the Orc King."

Elrond stared at Levi with a little admiration in his eyes:

"You must have killed more evil creatures than Orcs..."

Levi's eyelids jumped, and he felt that his title library must have been checked.

"I can feel that your achievements are not false. There is no need to be modest. This is something worthy of praise."

"Rivend welcomes you, Levi."

"Prepare a banquet and let us welcome our friends."

The lord actually invited Levi to dinner in person. To be honest, Levi felt a little flattered, but he was not stage fright.

After a while, Elrond, who had taken off his armor, sat at the main guest seat at the same table with Levi. In front of them were dishes served on exquisite plates, and an elf poured Levi a glass of mellow wine.

"Thank you." Levi nodded.

"Levi, my people first heard about you from the Dunedain. I heard that you also have good relations with the Dunedain."

"Yes, I have received help from a wanderer and have had a lot of exchanges with him. I promised him and his people that they can come to me at any time if they need anything."

"Generous people will always be rewarded."

Elrond nodded slightly and took a sip. Suddenly, his eyes stopped on the sword on Levi's waist.

"Can you lend me this sword?"

"Of course."

Levi did not put the sword into his backpack, but hung it on his waist. In fact, he wanted this knowledgeable elf lord to help him see what it was.

The lord took the sword and stroked it carefully.

"Its forging craftsmanship is exquisite. It should have been forged in the First Age to deal with the orc army. It is extremely sharp and should not be an unknown sword."

"But, I have never heard of the legend about it. Perhaps it was lost before it could be used on the battlefield after it was forged."

"I took this from a troll. There are always some ancient things in their caves." Levi explained.

He did not mention that the sword had been used as a barbecue skewer by the troll, otherwise he was afraid that he would choke.

"I see."

Elrond nodded, returned the sword to Levi, and said, "I think it can help you deal with the orcs better. I look forward to the day when it has a name."

Only swords that have made great contributions will be named.

The lord said this, meaning that he hoped Levi could use it to achieve great results.

As expected of a cultured elf, he praised people without a trace.

The conversation with the lord made Levi feel quite comfortable.

Everything seemed so natural.
