Chapter 354: The Mine
"Mellon—" (Elvish: friend)

Tauriel's elven language is very standard - as an elf, her accent is definitely more standard than any dwarf who passed through the Morel mine in the past.And of course, this secret door will not reject her.

The door opened in front of her, and the turbid air flowed out with the change of internal and external air pressure.There is no smell of blood, but there is an extremely faint fishy smell.Even the nose of an elf can't distinguish it, but the best among the reincarnators can accurately discern the inner attributes of the breath.

Li Shuaixi sniffled.

His nasal cavity evolved rapidly under the effect of the power of black light.Numerous, dense, efficient olfactory units are generated and then operated stealthily.And after a few seconds, a definite result was obtained.

"It's half-orcs, the original kind. There is also a small amount of trolls mixed in. The ratio is about 130 to 15, and the number of half-orcs should be more than [-], and they are distributed in six areas with a certain distance... ...these six areas are distributed in a ring shape, and there is a huge hollow area in the middle..."

"Heiyu." Zhan Lan nodded. "My spiritual power can't penetrate there... There is a strong sense of hindrance, and there is a possibility of breaking through when I burst out with all my strength. There must be a very powerful monster entrenched there. It is a level that requires concerted efforts to deal with it."

There are outsiders, so there is no need to say everything.

But everyone knows that at the center of the mines of Moria is the wild Balrog that resides here—one of the fallen Maya who followed Morgoth's rebellion in the past.It was awakened from the depths of the earth because the dwarves dug too deep, and these daredevils who love to dig, also got the ending of "death" for this reckless move.

There is no fresh blood in the air, and there is no stench of corpses in the air.

Tao Ruier pursed her lips. If she still had nostalgia for life, then her eyes must be full of surprise at this moment.But she didn't, so the intelligence analysis of the reincarnators was just a wind that passed quickly by her ears, and the wind was thrown behind her head, and she held a lantern of the fairy Xidu and strode forward into the ruins.

Groups of skeletons are reflected in the illuminated area-unlike other Western fantasy worlds, the dwarves in the Lord of the Rings world view are God's creations.Their essence is mud and rock - when the dwarves die, they will not leave a corpse for corruption, but directly turn into mud and rock.And these dwarves who were a few years ago, or more than ten years ago, or even earlier, stood quietly in this area only tens of meters away from the exit in the posture of stiff stone statues.

Even if they die, they still stand like warriors.Their petrified arms still held aloft, their imperished axes and sledgehammers, as if about to decapitate the foe ahead.

They can no longer do it.

Tao Ruier stood in front of them, as if he wanted to raise his hand to touch these petrified bodies, but he stopped before the gesture of raising his hand was made.She is only a Shirvan elf after all.The mutual hostility between elves and dwarves is the nature that has been inherited from their respective creators since the beginning of their creation.

The agreement with Tao Ruier is actually completed here.

The dwarves finally rushed to the place only a few steps away from the door, but they still couldn't cross this last area.The last dwarf in the mines of Moria, then, may prove to have died here too.

But that's not the end of the reincarnation's mission...not any of it.

"There may be survivors in the depths of the mine." Jiang Yu walked to Tao Ruier's side, waved her hand, and drove away the dark mist in front of her eyes. "We haven't seen the half-orcs here yet, and we can't confirm that they are the ones that attacked your people."

"Our agreed commission is not over yet."

Tao Ruier opened her mouth slightly in surprise—she looked at the reincarnations with disbelief.Then, it turned into silence.

She probably thought it was some kind of pity.Or justice... At least the reincarnators of the Zhongzhou team, before starting the battle mode, even one by one, wrapped themselves tightly to prevent information from leaking.But at least the non-combat appearance and previous behavior can be regarded as roughly neutral.

"Thank you." She lowered her head slightly. "Then let me lead the way."

She also no longer hides the secret of her identity.

"I come from the Black Forest, the other end of the Misty Mountains. When the Dwarf Expedition went west to recover Morel 60 years ago, I traveled with them for a while because of some origins...they fought very well at that time, Many of the Orcs entrenched in the mines were destroyed. One of them was even crowned King of Morel in the central hall, and sent Moria's recovered Moria to many surrounding kingdoms before I left. information."

She shook her head gently.

"I thought their next battle would be easy, and it was really inconvenient for me, a Sylvan, to stay in the cave for a long time. So I bid farewell to Balin, the king of Moria, and his companions. And my kindred west of the Misty Mountains Settle down in settlements... until the day comes when the power of darkness rises and the people of the same race will go west."

The source of the story is not said, perhaps because it involves some personal emotions.

But the secret is no longer a secret when it is blurted out, even if it is only a small part for a short time-she had a very small emotional outburst when she mentioned 60 years ago.Mixed with nostalgia, pain, sorrow, and a heartbroken love - Zhan Lan captured her emotional spectrum and made it into a fan chart and put it in the soul link group chat with a bonus "This guy's lover is dead, And there is a high probability that it is a dwarf' guess.And thinking about it, as long as you still have the trait of 'emotional intelligence', no one will get to the bottom of this kind of thing.

Chu Xuan has no EQ.

But Chu Xuan has something to pay more attention to.

"60 years ago." He gently pushed his glasses. "...As far as I know, the predecessor of the Moria Expedition was the Lonely Mountain Expedition. And you once lived in the Black Forest... You participated in that war, and you witnessed the death of the last famous dragon in Middle-earth fall from the sky?"

And Tao Ruier responded to him immediately.

"Yes, 60 years ago. When the war broke out, I experienced... some things." She was reluctant to say more about it.

But, there's another thing she's willing to say more about.But it is more meaningful than the former.

"And I did see the fall of Smaug... I saw Bard the Dragonbreaker hit him with a black arrow. I saw him flee away howling and fleeing to the northern wilderness. Thranduil... my lord, said it suffered After suffering an incurable wound, I will never dare to step into the land of the lonely mountain again. And after that is..."

"Wait! Dragon Breaker? Not Dragon Slayer?" Jiang Yu's eyes widened. This is not good news. "Smaug is not dead? Didn't it mean that Bard killed it, and then became the lord of River Valley Town by virtue of this merit?"

Tauriel gave him a strange look.

"It should be human beings spreading rumors." She said, patiently explaining. "That Mr. Bard did become the king of River Valley Town because he defeated the dragon. But he didn't kill it - the dragon's scales are too thick, even if it is hit by a special black arrow in the dragon's heart, it can only hurt it, and could not penetrate it. Smaug was mortally wounded, but not slain. I saw him flee, and after it left, the armies of the orcs attacked and fought with the elves and dwarves. The armies are fighting together."

well.

The reincarnators looked at each other, and there was confusion in their hearts—Smaug, the last dragon recorded in the Lord of the Rings stories.Although it may not be the last one in existence, it is indeed the last one that is still moving.And it has extraordinary combat power, and most importantly, it had an alliance with Sauron during its lifetime.

Its power is basically lethal to the army.There are not many biological individuals that can exert mass annihilation capabilities under the Great Barrier of Iluvita, and it is one of them.And there is no doubt that when the darkness of Mordor spreads across Middle-earth and Sauron gradually recovers his vitality and combat effectiveness, he will definitely find ways to rescue his ally from the wounded ground, thereby strengthening his own battle situation.

—— "Uh... I think it's no big deal to be a mere fire dragon?"

Zheng Zha, try hard to speak in the soul link.

——"It doesn't seem to be very powerful, and it is also a descendant of dragons. Compared with ancestors like Ankaragang, it doesn't have much power. It feels... at most it is a weakened Balrog grade?"

Ankaragan is the mightiest dragon, the secret creation of Morgoth.It fell to a mighty elven warrior in the First Age.As a descendant of Valar's creation, Smaug obviously does not have the level of the fallen Maya of the Balrog.

It sounds like this makes sense.

The reincarnators discussed quickly and reached a consistent conclusion—even for Jiang Yu, who had read the Hobbit trilogy.Of course, there is a more critical element here.

—We can't spare our hands to deal with Smaug now anyway.Even if we get out of here, we have a pretty full schedule to deal with.

Jiang Yu said, and pointed out more areas worthy of attention.

——And, if the change in the world view of the Lord of the Rings started 60 years ago... Does this mean that it was in the depths of the Moria mine.Are there really remnants of the dwarves hiding there?
This is quite possible.The mission of the main god increases the possibility of this guess becoming real.

The short discussion among the reincarnators ended here.Tauriel, who was unaware of this, naturally took over the duty of leading the way as a sentinel.And soon, she found some noteworthy traces.
