Chapter 42 Blocking the Door

For both Levi and Gandalf, traveling and adventure are commonplace.

Especially since Levi had just come out of Hell not long ago, and after getting used to the extreme environment of Hell, he felt a little relaxed when he returned to Middle-earth.

At least he didn't have to smell the pungent sulfur smell all the time, and he had to endure the high temperature. Although the high temperature of Hell would not have a substantial impact on Levi, it did not prevent him from not liking the hot environment.

"Where do we go?"

Levi asked. There are two ways to cross the Misty Mountains. One is to go directly through the passage in the mountains, and the other is to take a detour and go north through Isengard, but that is too far.

"High Pass." Gandalf answered without hesitation.

"This place..."

"Will it be a little dangerous? I remember there are many Orcs there."

You know, there is an Orc town next to it, and the Orc King who wanted Levi lives there.

"There are two passages in the High Pass. Let's take the higher one and try to bypass them."

"Okay." Levi just asked casually. In fact, with his current equipment and supplies, he can fight his way out even if he really falls into the Orc town.

He didn't go to hell in vain. The gold nuggets in the Piglin Fortress made Levi rich. Now he has a set of golden apples in his backpack.

As long as Gandalf is fine, then he will be fine.

However, the High Pass...

There are not only Orcs in that place, but also a little creature living by the underground undercurrent deep in the mountains.

Gollum.

The reflection of a golden ring appeared in the bottom of his pupils.

Although they didn't ride horses on the road, Levi and Gandalf's speed was not slow. They almost never stopped except for eating.

Levi didn't need to rest. As long as he had food, he could stay energetic.

As for Gandalf, this old man was not good-looking, but his physical strength was not necessarily worse than Levi's. Anyway, after discovering that Levi did not need to rest, he never mentioned the matter of rest again.

Crossing the wilderness all the way, crossing the last bridge, finally, on a sunny morning, the two finally arrived near the Misty Mountains.

Looking at the towering snow-capped mountains in the distance, Levi couldn't help but exclaimed.

Reaching the top of Zhongzhou, the Misty Mountains!

"No time to stay, Levi, we must speed up."

Gandalf called out in front: "While it is still light, we have to cross the pass quickly, so as not to meet those Orcs who come out at night."

"Okay."

While it was still early, the two began to climb the mountain. They did not stop all day, even when they were eating.

However, even with such caution, they still encountered an accident.

"Roar."

A low roar startled Levi and Gandalf to stop and look around.

Gandalf picked up his cane.

Levi pulled out the glowing ancient elf sword.

However, the expected attack did not come.

The two looked at each other and slowly approached the direction where the sound came from.

Behind a large rock, two wargs and five orcs were gathered together, making noises.

"I found it first, so of course it's mine!"

"You said you found it, so it's what you found? It's there, why can't it belong to me?"

"Roar!"

These orcs and wargs seemed to be arguing about something.

"An animal carcass." Gandalf said softly.

"It seems that they had some disputes over the distribution. The two wargs think that they are big in size and should eat the largest portion, while the orcs think that they found the prey first and should eat the most."

"Worgs and orcs quarreling? This is rare." Levi thought thoughtfully.

"Those wargs are not pure beasts, Levi. They have wisdom and their own language. They are in a cooperative relationship with the Orcs, not subordinates."

"No wonder they can't be tamed."

Gandalf glanced at Levi and said slowly: "Unless you commit evil, you can't make these beasts surrender."

"After all, they are wargs, not ordinary wolves looking for food."

Levi shrugged. Of course, the two of them were not talking about the same thing, but it was almost the same.

As he was talking, suddenly a warg's nose twitched twice, raised its head and looked around.

"I think we should leave." Gandalf reminded.

"No, I think we can prepare for battle."

"Roar!"

A warg suddenly rushed towards the place where the two were hiding. Levi simply didn't hide, drew out his long sword and jumped down to chop.

Bang!

At the moment the sword touched the warg, a flash of fire flashed across the sword, and then the fur on the warg suddenly exploded into a ball of flames, and the whole warg burned directly, turning into a wailing fire.

With a single sword strike, the warg turned into a piece of charred dead meat.

Gandalf stared at the ancient elven sword, then looked at Levi, squinting his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and did not come to help.

Back to this side, at first, when they saw that the other side was only one person, the Orcs wanted to play the good virtue of the Orcs of bullying the few with the many, but when these miscellaneous soldiers saw the dark and terrifying armor under Levi's linen cloak and the sword in his hand that could ignite fire, they retreated on the spot and scattered, and even the warg ran away with a howl.

The opposite side was a lord-level figure, so why would five or six Orcs fight him to death? Go home and get help.

"Done."

Levi put away his sword.

"It seems I can take it easy on this journey." Gandalf said this for no reason.

This is to be lazy.

"Let's go, let's leave before they send the news back."

It was getting dark.

Gandalf was leading the way in front, and when the two finally reached the end of the downhill road, they were about to leave the snowy mountains.

Whoosh--

An arrow came and hit Levi's breastplate directly, and then bounced off.

The health bar didn't move at all.

Levi and Gandalf turned back at the same time, only to see a large group of orcs behind them, who were noisy and crowded at the intersection, rushing down, throwing various weapons and shooting arrows.

"Run!" Gandalf shouted, lowered his head to avoid a flying scimitar, and turned around and left.

However, Levi looked at the narrow intersection in front of him, but the corner of his mouth was grinning.

"I don't think so!"

Swish--

The shining sword was drawn out, Levi put on his helmet, and ran in the opposite direction of Gandalf, blocking the mountain pass with one sword each.

Bang!

With one sword slash, the skinny orc at the front was directly split in half, and the impact of the sword also affected the orcs next to him, some of whom had broken bones and some lost their weapons.

Bang!

With another sword, several orcs were swept away, falling back to the orc group behind them with fire on their bodies, knocking down several companions and spreading the fire.

Levi blocked the mountain pass like this, constantly raising his sword to sweep horizontally and vertically, allowing the orcs rushing up to chisel and hit his armor, motionless, like a boulder.

An orc finally broke through the sword and surrounded Levi, hitting him all over his body for a long time. The health bar dropped almost symbolically, and it was replenished in the blink of an eye. Looking at the orc's weapon again, it had already broken.

This is nether alloy.

Not long after, a large area of ​​charred corpses appeared on the ground.

The blood at the beginning could still stimulate the ferocity of the orcs and the wargs, but when the corpses gradually gathered, the bloody smell was gradually covered by the charring, and finally, these orcs who were usually responsible for bringing fear to people also felt this emotion.

Fear.

"It's him, the wild wizard!"

Finally, a sharp-eyed orc who participated in the encirclement and suppression of Levi a few months ago recognized him and screamed at the top of his voice.

Wow——

Whether it was an orc or a warg, they all retreated unconsciously at this moment, staring at the black armor.

A warg trembled with a broken tooth mouth and howled in anger.

"Come on, scum, try to get past me!"

Looking at the Orcs in front of him emitting fear, Gandalf had a sense of déjà vu.

When Sauron walked out of the tower in the flesh, he went down Mount Doom, and faced the army of the last alliance while defeating the High King of the Noldor and the High Kings of Gondor and Arnor. This was probably the same posture.

I don't know who would be better if the two of them were to fight.

Thank you Lei Niyi for the 100-point reward!
