Chapter 43 Planning

Buzz——

Directly below, deep in the ground, a ring trembled.

"My baby~"

A dirty hand rubbed it, holding it tightly.

…

"The more powerful a person is, the easier it is to be blinded by power and be deceived, but they will not end well in the end, because there is only one true owner of that thing from beginning to end."

"Isildur, who had received the ring, was bewitched in front of the volcano, and eventually died in the golden iris swamp south of here, and the ring was lost there, or flowed into the sea."

At the foot of the mountain, Gandalf walked in front, talking about the major historical events that had happened in this area.

Levi walked behind and listened silently, nodding from time to time.

"You said that if you had kicked him down at the crater, wouldn't things have happened as bad as they did later?"

Gandalf glanced at him.

"All destiny has its inevitable order. Levi, the possibility you mentioned will never happen even if the scene is repeated a hundred or a thousand times."

The relationship is too complicated.

"Okay, I take your word for it."

The two of them walked and talked all the way, discussing some things every now and then, quite leisurely.

It was as if the battle he had just experienced was just an illusion.

Of course, Levi couldn't keep fighting with the Oaks. After blocking the door at the beginning, he fought and retreated all the way. Maybe the group of Oaks were really afraid of being killed, or maybe it was because the battle was too sudden. , the pursuit of the Oaks seemed quite weak, and the two of them ran out of the mountains in a short while.

But then again.

Gandalf had a very strange feeling.

The man behind him, let’s say he doesn’t understand history. He does know a lot of secrets that are ancient and almost unknown to anyone. But if you say he understands history, it’s not necessarily true. The reason is that if you ask him some details, ordinary people may understand them. Common sense, he would answer "I don't know".

Very contradictory.

"Shh-"

On a plain far away from the Misty Mountains, Gandalf suddenly stopped and signaled Levi to be quiet.

"Oc."

roar!

Accompanied by the low roar of the wargs, a group of Orc riders crossed the border and rushed in one direction.

"I guess there's an Orc stronghold, or at least a camp, over there."

Gandalf exposed half of his head and looked at the backs of the group of Oaks.

"Then what do we do, get rid of them?"

"Oh, no, no, that's too risky. After all, there are only two of us—"

Looking at Levi with a relaxed look on his face, Gandalf's voice suddenly stopped.

It seems like it’s not impossible?

"I think we'd better go investigate first. After all, we don't know how many people there are on the other side."

"Agree."

Although Li Wei looked relaxed, he actually had some idea in mind. After all, it would be very difficult to deal with the Oak army if he accidentally stabbed him.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. When the quantity reaches a certain level, even he will be weak.

"Let's go."

Following the marching path of the Oaks, the two of them, using the cover of their robes, soon came to a fortress that seemed a little noisy.

But this is not so much a fortress as a temporary camp built from the ruins of the fortress. In the camp, there is a relatively stronger 20-health mini-boss Oak leading these guys.

At this moment, a large group of Oaks were resting in this dark and humid camp. Occasionally, a few shouts and curses could be heard. That was when some Oaks started fighting.

"There are a dozen wargs and more than twenty Orcs."

Soon Gandalf counted the enemy's forces.

"Look." He pointed at two Oaks fighting in the distance and said, "The word unity never appears to Oaks. They can always fight among themselves because of trivial matters."

"I think we can do some small guidance and let them fight on their own for a while..."

Gandalf picked up a small stone, blew it, and threw it into a dozing Orc.

"Who is it?!"

Oak next to him was so frightened by the roar that he sat up and immediately became a little angry: "Why are you making such a noise!"

"Did you hit me?"

"So what if I hit you?"

Snap!

The Oak who was woken up threw a handful of stones, smashing the eyes of the Oak opposite him so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.

"Scum!" Oak was angry after being hit, and rushed forward with a roar.

The two Orcs soon struggled with each other.

This kind of thing can only be regarded as normal in the Oak camp, and it did not attract much attention. Even the surrounding Oaks looked like they were watching a good show.

If there is a dispute, there must be an end.

Soon, one of them fell to the ground with a bruised face and groaned. It was obvious that he couldn't move for a while.

"Bah." Of course the other one would not forget to humiliate him.

Looking again, Gandalf next to him had a wicked smile on his face. It was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this.

"I often use this method to get them to stir up trouble on their own, which allows them to reduce their power without even realizing it."

"A very smart move."

"Thanks."

Just as Gandalf was aiming at his second target, preparing to artificially cause internal strife again, Levi stood up directly from their hiding place.

Gandalf paused and looked up at him.

"But it's too much trouble. I think it would be faster just to go."

Swish——

The long sword was drawn out, shining with blue light.

"There are enemies!"

"roar!"

With a warning, the Orcs immediately rode on their wargs, and those who did not ride on wargs picked up their weapons and followed behind.

"Alas! Too reckless!" Knowing that he could no longer hide, Gandalf immediately stood up and picked up his staff.

"Aha, look what I found, a human with a disgusting sword, and - a wizard?"

"Who gave you the courage to come to my territory!"

"Kill them!"

The little leader raised his butcher knife, and the wargs behind him immediately pounced on him.

Boom!

Levi swept across and directly stopped the three riders. The flames ignited from the dry fur of the wargs, burning the Orcs riding on them and screaming, and they immediately turned over and jumped down.

Gandalf behind him glanced at the fire, and saw that the flames that were almost extinguished by the rolling suddenly jumped up, and the momentum was so great that it directly ignited the Orcs who were closer.

Levi did not turn his head to look, he knew that Gandalf held a ring of fire, which could ignite both fire and hope.

On this side, Levi swept a large area, wearing black armor, and rushed into the group of orcs to kill them indiscriminately, leaving a pile of charred corpses on the ground, which made the orcs behind tremble with fear.

If I can't afford to provoke them, can I not hide?

In comparison, the old man over there looked much easier to bully.

An orc screamed and raised the weapon in his hand and rushed towards Gandalf, but Gandalf was not in a hurry. He raised his staff and poked it. Based on the principle that an inch longer is an inch stronger, he relied on the length of the staff to knock the attacking orc to the ground.

After this poke, he turned around and hit another orc with a stick. The staff swung in the wind and hit another orc. This time, the orc's not-so-strong armor was bent directly, which surprised Gandalf himself.

This thing is getting more and more convenient to use.

Although Gandalf also fought with great momentum, he was far inferior to Levi. Five or six Orcs soon gathered around him, obviously considering him as a weak point and planning to take the weak ones as hostages first.

However, Gandalf knocked his staff on the ground, and a terrifying flash suddenly passed over the camp. With a smell of gunpowder, several orcs fell to the ground and died on the spot.
