Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

Chapter 68 The Shadow of Dol Guldur

For Legolas, the elf who showed him his fighting skills without reservation and helped him unlock new modules, Levi rewarded him with a golden apple.

The elves seem to like this thing very much, it's beautiful and practical.

Although it seems that there are a lot of golden apples given out recently, Levi really doesn't know what he can give as a thank you. This is the most suitable gift in his backpack, and the quantity is relatively large.

But speaking of it, it is estimated that no one can reject the golden apple. It directly affects the aesthetic point of most creatures. Oak said it was good when he saw it.

After unlocking the basic swordsmanship, Levi never went to the training ground again, which made Legolas a little confused. Why did this person stop learning after learning it for a day?

But what pleased the temporary instructor was that after that, Levi often went to kill some spiders and wandering Oaks nearby.

Although he always talks about brushing things and brushing things, and doesn't know what he means, all the elves see his behavior. No matter what, what he does is beneficial to the Woodland Kingdom. This deserves respect.

"Today's drop rate is so high."

In the forest, Levi chopped off a spider again, looking embarrassed.

In the past few days, I have chopped down hundreds of spiders, big and small, and built several nests. The spider eyes in my backpack can no longer fit, and as a result, I lost a basic sword skill and a dodge skill ball.

After upgrading his basic sword skills to level two and dodge to level one, Levi put away his sword and returned to the Woodland Kingdom.

Tomorrow is the Starlight Feast, and it is also the day we agreed to gather.

"I noticed that there are many Orcs ambushing at the eastern border of the forest. They seem to be searching for something."

To the east of the woodland is the river leading to Changhu Town, which is also an important trade channel for the elves. It is definitely not a good thing to have Oaks entrenched there.

Returning to the palace, Levi brought the information to the king. After receiving an answer that Thranduil would take seriously, he set off for Dol Guul Fortress.

The day after Levi left, a feast was held in the Woodland Kingdom. The elves carried barrels of wine to the banquet hall and toasted to celebrate.

However, on this great day, there was bad news.

"The dwarves ran away."

Upon hearing the news, Thranduil was no longer in the mood to drink and simply put the wine glass aside.

"Legolas, you lead the team, go-"

As if something suddenly occurred to him, the king paused and continued: "Go and clear out the Oaks nearby. Don't let them ruin our dinner."

"What about the dwarves?"

Legolas asked.

"Don't worry about them, let them go with the river. Life or death is their own business. I don't care."

"Also, remember to bring back a living creature when you clean up the Oaks. I have something to ask."

Although he had many doubts, Legolas accepted the order and rushed to the mouth of the river with a group of elves.

The king sat on his throne, deep in thought.

Dol Guldur, once the home of the woodland elves, has been abandoned since the elves moved north in the Second Age.

However, in the third era, an evil force occupied this place.

Its appearance is shabby and the surroundings are silent. It seems that nothing is moving here. However, these are just illusions used to deceive the outside world. Even the rumors of the 'Necromancer' may have been actively released in order to confuse the public. , to gain more development time.

Li Wei stepped on dead branches and rotten leaves and approached the gate of the fortress step by step.

"Gandalf?" he called.

"Is this late?"

"No."

Suddenly a voice came from behind the stone pillar beside him. Levi turned his head and saw the two wizards Gandalf and Brown-robed Radagast walking out together.

"A wizard is never late," said Gandalf.

"That's right, as long as my hare is here, it's only because others are late!" Radagast echoed.

"I'm almost certain, Levi, the enemy is here."

Gandalf came closer and whispered, and the three people gathered in a circle and began to discuss.

"There is a hidden spell here. What he did means that he has not recovered his full strength and dare not show up publicly."

"Radagast, you go and bring a message to the lady of the Golden Forest, asking for support. We must force the enemy out."

"Don't follow us. Got it? It's enough for Levi and I to investigate here."

Radagast was startled, "Do you think I'm not strong enough and you want me to run errands?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go."

Radagast got into the hare cart and left quickly.

Watching the brown robe leave, Levi asked: "What should we do next, go in directly?"

"There is no other way. Let's go in and investigate. If something goes wrong, retreat immediately."

With that said, Gandalf drew out Gramdrin, holding a staff in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, and drove ahead of Livy, while Livy followed behind him, keeping an eye on the rear.

Looking at Gandalf's back, Levi couldn't help but think of a word: sword to the ends of the earth - referring to a staff and a sword to cut to the ends of the earth.

"How about we wait for reinforcements."

Levi suggested to Gandalf. To be honest, when he thought of certain battle scenes, he was still a little timid.

After all, even if Sauron lost the Lord of the Rings and was now a remnant soul with only a small part of his power left, his power would still be considerable. At least he would have no problem beating Gandalf.

I just don't know if my armor can withstand the fight.

"It's too late. I must know what Sauron is planning." Gandalf, who has always been cautious, decided to take a risk this time.

"Then we have a deal. If something goes wrong, we will run. Don't stay here for too long."

"I will. Believe me. My life is still useful. I can't throw it away casually."

In the careful exploration, the two went deep into the ruined fortress.

Here, the sky is always cloudy, and there is almost no difference between day and night. On the way, Levi looked up and saw a pile of iron cages on both sides. There were some dry bones in them, some big and some small. Obviously, many people had been tortured here until they died.

The torture they suffered might even be for no reason, just because the Orcs liked the act of "torture".

"This is where Thrain was once imprisoned. I met him when I came here to explore a long time ago."

Gandalf looked at the iron cage above his head and shook his head.

"He was captured here and tortured for five years. No one knows what he had suffered. When I found him, he was already unconscious and could not even remember who he was. Not long after he handed me the key and map, he passed away."

Just as Gandalf was explaining the history of this place to Levi as usual, acting as the encyclopedia of Middle-earth.

Swish——

A shadow suddenly flashed by. Levi turned his head sharply, but found nothing. Gandalf also looked over and was about to ask, when suddenly, a sword emerged from behind Gandalf and stabbed down fiercely.

Dang!

Levi's nameless sword and Gandalf's Glamdring were drawn out at the same time, blocking the sword that hit the vital point.
