The expedition team is officially on the road.
We had just left Hobbiton and were only halfway through our first day of journey.
The originally clear sky was suddenly shrouded in clouds.
Immediately afterwards, a heavy rain fell from the sky.
Just after walking out of the woods, everyone in the team walking on the vast wilderness trail couldn't avoid it, and they all turned into drowned rats in an instant.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa..."
The pouring rain and the huge raindrops were falling down all over my face.
As soon as Jean left Hobbiton, half of his enthusiasm for adventure was immediately gone.
"Let's continue walking like this, why don't we find a place to take shelter from the rain?"
Bilbo, who was blinded by the heavy rain, looked at the people who were indifferent and continued to move forward in the heavy rain and shouted.
"Mr. Baggins, this is a summer rain, and it won't last long..."
"There's no place to hide around here, just hold on..."
"A little rain will make us stronger, Mr. Baggins. You need more rain..."
A dwarf in the team immediately answered.
"Being exposed to the rain can make you stronger. Is there any such thing?"
Bilbo seemed to think he had heard something wrong, and asked Morgan beside him in surprise.
"Maybe, after all, we're going to get wet a lot in the rain."
Morgan shook his head.
Fortunately, before meeting Gandalf, Morgan had been wandering alone in the wilderness for half a month.
Morgan is now more accustomed to encountering such severe weather in the wild.
"Well, it seems that the adventure is indeed a little different from usual..."
Hearing Morgan's words, Bilbo murmured, barely believing it.
"Hey, Mr. Gandalf, can't you do something about the rain?"
At this time, the dwarf Doli suddenly asked loudly.
"Such heavy rain will not stop until it stops."
"If you want to change the world's weather, you should find another wizard."
Gandalf wiped the rain off his long beard and replied.
"Any more?"
Bilbo asked Gandalf as he rode up to catch up in front of Morgan.
Gandalf: "What?"
Bilbo: "Are there any other wizards..."
Gandalf turned to look at Bilbo and said, "Of course, there are five in total."
"The most powerful among us is Saruman, the White Wizard."
"There are also two blue-robed wizards, but I have almost forgotten their names..."
Bilbo continued: "Where's the other one?"
Gandalf: "The other one is Radagast, the brown wizard..."
"Then what does he do? Is he still the same as you..."
Bilbo kept asking Gandalf all kinds of questions about wizards like a curious baby.
Gandalf has a good character and is constantly answering Bilbo's various questions.
Morgan, who was following the two of them, took the opportunity to hear a lot of news beyond the memory plot.
As the dwarf said before, this is a heavy summer rain.
Half an hour later, the heavy rain stopped.
The dark clouds in the sky began to disperse, and rays of golden sunlight fell on the earth from the gaps in the clouds, shining brightly.
The sky washed by the rain becomes cleaner and clearer.
The atmosphere of silence among the expedition team also disappeared as the heavy rain went away.
With the dwarves around, the atmosphere in the team soon became lively again.
A large team of more than a dozen people acted together.
There is no need to worry about encountering wild beasts or anything like that.
Even if they meet, they will only provide extra food for the team.
Just like that, time flew by.
One month later.
In a leafy jungle.
Morgan was holding a longbow and carefully hiding behind a big tree.
Not far away, the dwarf Kili, also holding a bow and arrow, crouched carefully behind the overgrown thorns.
A little further in front of the two of them, seven or eight sturdy spotted deer were eating grass.
The inherent caution in the blood of herbivorous creatures makes the spotted deer look up and look around very cautiously after eating a few mouthfuls of grass.
Morgan raised his hand to gesture to Kili.
Qili, who already had some tacit understanding, nodded, immediately stood up and walked carefully to the side.
Morgan hid in place. After seeing Kili reach the appropriate position, Morgan made gestures again.
Qili nodded, chose a suitable hiding position, drew his bow and arrow, and waited quietly.
See Kili arriving at the place.
Morgan then pulled out an arrow from the quiver on his back, and then pulled out another arrow.
A total of two arrows were placed on the long bow in his hand.
Yes, after a month of familiarity and practice.
Morgan can now shoot two arrows at once.
It was only now that he truly understood how powerful LV2 level archery was, and he had barely mastered it.
With his bow and arrow ready, Morgan carefully leaned out of the tree trunk and immediately retracted when he saw the spotted deer looking up in the distance.
After waiting for a few seconds and counting silently, Morgan leaned out again, just in time to see the spotted deer lowering its head and continuing to eat grass.
"It's now!"
Morgan's eyes immediately became extremely sharp and focused, and he pointed the long bow at the herd of piebald deer with the bowstring fully drawn.
"Whoosh..."
The two arrows shot away from the string with a sound of breaking through the air.
The piebald deer was instantly awakened by the sound of the bowstring and ran away immediately.
It's just that it's still a little slower than the bowstring's lasing speed.
Two piebald deer approaching Morgan fell whining.
The few remaining spotted deer immediately ran away as if their lives were in danger. The direction they ran in was exactly the direction Qili was guarding.
"Whoosh..."
The spotted deer that was running forward fell down again.
The remaining spotted deer immediately turned around in panic.
At this time, there was another pleasant sound of bow strings.
"Whizzing..."
Two deadly arrows arrived in an instant.
A piebald deer fell to the ground.
Another arrow missed slightly by sticking close to the neck of a piebald deer.
The remaining spotted deer seemed to be frightened out of their minds. They fled in panic and disappeared into the dense forest in the blink of an eye.
The hunt was a success. Morgan shot three piebald deer alone and Kili shot one.
For more than a month, Qili has been convinced of Morgan's archery skills.
On the way back carrying the spotted deer, Qili did not forget to ask Morgan for advice.
Because of Morgan's systematic initiation and his understanding of archery along the way, he is no longer what he used to be.
Teaching Kili is enough.
Morgan didn't hide anything when he taught Qili.
He is willing to make good friends with the dwarves, which will be beneficial to his future plans.
The advantage of selfless teaching is that Qili now respects Morgan more and more, and vaguely regards Morgan as a teacher.
The other dwarves in the expedition team also had more respect for Morgan.
When the two men returned to the team's temporary rest camp carrying four spotted deer.
The two received a warm welcome.
Think about it, hunting is not something you can do with a sword or an axe, you have to be able to attack those prey.
Now the team's meat supply, that is, hunting, is almost the responsibility of Morgan and Kili.
But now in the team, apart from hunting, the two of them no longer have to do anything else.
Such as cooking, such as feeding horses, such as picking wild vegetables, such as keeping vigil...
