I'm In Middle-Earth: Going To Slay A Dragon At The Start

Chapter 36 Betrayal (four more, ask for flower evaluation!)

The firewood is burning, the smoke is in the air, and the ancient cave is gray and bleak…

Locked in the wooden prison are a pair of pure and crystal eyes. The children’s original intentions are not lost, and their eyes should be filled with hope and joy, but at this moment, in these eyes, only fear and despair can be seen. .

“Ah~” screams kept coming from outside the cage not far from them, making them tremble even more.

In front of the cage, there are several huge stoves made of black iron, with pitch-black iron pots on them.

“Gulugulu!” The foul-smelling liquid of green smoke kept boiling, and bursts of bubbles rose, filling, bursting, and starting again and again.

“Ah~” Several Orcs were holding a few crying and wailing human sons in their hands, and slowly walked towards the bubbling stove.

“No, don’t—, I want to go home, I want to go home—” The childish voice that should have been clear became hoarse.

“Pfft!” The Orcs were indifferent, and with a flick of their hands, the hoarse cry disappeared.

The dark green liquid was tumbling, and then returned to calm.

“Failed again.” The Orcs shook their heads and began to prepare new materials again.

The people who were still locked in the cell, with tears in their eyes, watched this scene, but did not dare to make a sound.

They bit their lips tightly, holding their thin bodies together, trembling, trying to remove the horror of the scene they saw from the bottom of their hearts.

But just when they were afraid, a sharp shout suddenly came from the exit of the cave:

“Come on, someone is breaking in! Someone is breaking in, and they want to rescue those boys.”

…

Gulu shouted, and then took advantage of the moment when the people of Sorin were in a daze, jumped a few times quickly, climbed to the side of the cave, then turned around and looked at the people of Sorin below, but there was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth.

“Gulu, you actually betrayed us?” Sorin looked at Gulu on the rock wall, but his eyes couldn’t help but burst into flames.

This disgusting guy took them all the way here, to the Orc’s lair, and then suddenly shouted, they didn’t have to think about what happened to them.

Betrayal, no doubt, this guy who has always been docile temporarily turned against the water and betrayed them.

“No no no, this is our gift to you, and we have never thought about who we should be loyal to, how could we betray anyone?” Gulu said proudly above.

“Gollum, why are you doing this?” Carl said suddenly.

He had hoped that if this hobbit, Smeagol, left the Lord of the Rings and could correct and restrain himself, he would be given a chance to be born again.

However, now it seems that he thinks too much.

Gollum glanced at Carl, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

But in the end it was covered in cruelty: “Of course, Carl, my friend, I appreciate you saving me, but, you won’t understand me, yes, you won’t understand our pain, Wuhu, yes, ours Only you can understand the pain.”

After that, Gulu sneered and said loudly, “Then accept the gift I brought you.”

Not far from the stone road, there have been bursts of hurried footsteps, the sound is thick and heavy, and it is obvious that a large group of orcs are coming towards them.

After Gulu finished speaking, he put his head away, and his figure disappeared among the stones.

Carl turned his head, glanced at Thorin, and said, “Sorin, Gollum betrayed us, and this was caused by my suddenness.”

“Now the Orcs are coming. If… you don’t want to get into trouble, then please leave first.”

Carl believes that while Gollum did lead them to the cave where the humans were being held, it did betray them and expose them to the Orcs.

Sorin followed his advice and came here. Although Carl was not a good person, he also knew that the responsibility rested on himself, and of course, he should also bear it.

He decided to let Sorin and the others retreat after he broke it up by himself. And then… kill the Orcs in this cave without leaving any behind.

but,

“Haha, Carl, what are you kidding?” Sorin suddenly laughed, he put down the anger caused by the betrayal just now, looked at Carl and said, “You think I, Sorin, would give up his comrade-in-arms so easily. ?”

“What’s more, there are still a large group of innocent people here waiting for us to rescue, how could I leave like this?”

“So, stop talking nonsense.” After that, Thorin turned his head and shouted to the dwarves, “My people, who would like to charge me again to destroy the underground monsters that are entrenched here to do evil. Lose!”

“We are willing!” the dwarves shouted, the weapons in their hands raised high, flashing cold in the dark cave.

Of course they really wanted to, and the reason was because they both respected Thorin’s wishes, and because they did count Carl as one of their teammates.

Carl rescued them from danger a few times and never asked to leave no matter what happened, so much like Bilbo.

Although Carl’s personality is indeed a bit bad at times, he is still their friend. *
