Raven Ridge.
"call..."
"call..."
The wind and snow are getting stronger.
One tall and one short, they continued to climb towards the top of Raven Ridge against the biting cold wind.
Soon, when they saw the man-made stone staircase appearing in front of them, both figures showed a hint of joy on their faces.
Although the stone staircase is broken and weathered.
But it is much easier to walk than the rugged and steep mountain road.
The most important thing is that it is very close to the top of the mountain.
These two were naturally Morgan and Bilbo who came all the way from Riverdale Town to Raven Ridge.
Compared to the giant-horned goats ridden by Thorin Oakenshield and the dwarf Dvalin Kilifili.
Naturally, the speed of the two walking up the mountain was much different.
Although the two are not slow.
Stepping onto the stone stairs and looking at the obviously increasing number of orc corpses on the roadside, Morgan's expression became more serious.
Morgan walked quickly.
But I felt the footsteps behind me suddenly slow down.
Morgan immediately turned around and saw Bilbo standing half-crouched on the stone stairs behind him, breathing hard.
"Bilbo, how are you, are you still okay?"
After listening to Morgan's words in front of him, Bilbo immediately stood up straight, took a deep breath and said immediately: "Of course it can be done, Thorin and the others are still waiting for news from us."
"I can keep up."
Bilbo gritted his teeth and quickly followed.
Seeing Bilbo like this, Morgan didn't say anything, and immediately turned around and ran up the mountain quickly.
He wasn't too worried about Bilbo. With the protagonist's halo and the Supreme Lord of the Rings on his body, it wouldn't be that easy for him to get into trouble.
This is also the reason why Bilbo dares to come to Raven Hill.
The corpses of orcs that can be seen everywhere on the roadside serve as guides.
Morgan strode through the stone stairs, rushed up to the dilapidated stone houses and other buildings, and walked quickly to the top of Raven Ridge.
at the same time.
At the foot of the mountain.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
A messy and rapid sound of horse hooves came from far to near.
Not long after, the two horses galloped to the foot of the mountain and stopped.
Soon, two elven figures, a man and a woman, got off their horses.
The two elves are naturally Tauriel and the elf prince Legolas.
Ever since Gandalf of Riverdale learned that Morgan had come to Raven Ridge.
Without saying a word, Tauriel immediately found a horse and went straight to Raven Hill to find his lover.
Legolas was worried about Tariel and quickly followed.
Tauriel got off his horse and immediately walked quickly towards the mountain peak above.
Legolas took this into his mind and followed behind him and couldn't help but said: "Tauriel, although I hate that guy Morgan."
"But his strength is still very good, so you don't have to worry too much."
Tariel paused in front of him, but soon he continued to walk quickly up the mountain without stopping.
Legolas looked helpless. He had rationally transformed his subtle affection and admiration for Tariel into concern for his sister.
But seeing how much Tariel cared about that guy, he couldn't feel comfortable at all.
"Maybe it's time to change yourself..."
Legolas sighed slightly in his heart, and then quickly followed.
The top of Raven Ridge.
On the frozen lake in the center.
It was already bloody at this time.
There were mutilated limbs and broken arms everywhere, and corpses everywhere.
Thorin Oakenshield holding a long sword and Dwalin holding a battle ax stood side by side covered in blood.
In front of the two dwarves, there were about a dozen or twenty Goblin monster mercenaries waving their weapons and shouting strangely.
But a strange cry is a strange cry.
Looking at the two dwarves in front of them, the surrounding Goblin mercenaries couldn't help but feel a little timid.
There is no way, anyone who faces a powerful dwarf who can kill thirty or forty of his companions in one breath will feel a trace of fear as long as he is not too stupid.
Looking at the bluff around them, the surviving Goblin mercenaries were obviously timid.
At this time, a tall Goblin in the team, holding a long sword, who looked like the leader of this monster mercenary team, immediately shouted in a high-pitched voice: "The employer's order is to kill None of them, or you, nay, us, would get a single gold coin.”
"Also, the food and weapons our employer gave us in advance will also be taken back."
"I know that many of them have already eaten them all. If you don't kill these two dwarves, I'll see how you deal with the orcs."
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding Goblin mercenaries were immediately shaken.
The employer for this mission is Azog, the orc leader. The reward is generous but also extremely cruel. Anyone who dares to take the reward and do nothing will only be turned into food and die.
Upon seeing this, the leading goblin immediately screamed: "Come on, everyone, come on!"
"As long as we kill them, the rewards of the other dead guys will be shared among us who survived!"
After the words fell, the remaining Goblin mercenaries finally couldn't bear it any longer. Their timidity disappeared, and they immediately rushed forward wildly, waving their weapons.
at this time.
"Swish swish..."
Three arrows shot out from behind the boulder with a rapid sound of breaking through the air.
"Bang bang bang..."
The three goblin mercenaries who rushed forward first were hit by arrows in the head, and then they fell to the ground one after another with a muffled sound.
Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin, who were facing the Goblin mercenaries when they sensed the reinforcements, looked happy.
But there was no time to look at it at this time. The two dwarves immediately pounced on the goblin mercenaries in front.
The one who came to the rescue was Morgan.
Just after rushing all the way to the top of Raven Ridge and following the orc corpses to find Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin, they discovered that they were being besieged by a group of goblin monsters.
The large number of corpses and mutilated limbs on the surrounding ice that was almost stained with black and red blood showed that a fierce battle had been going on for a while.
There was no sign of the two brothers Kili and Fili around. They must have been sent out to search by Thorin Oakenshield, similar to what they remembered in the plot.
Although it's still a step too late, the tragedy hasn't happened yet, so there should still be a chance.
Combined with the memory of the plot, all kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind.
Morgan kept moving in his hand. When he stretched out his hand, two arrows appeared in his hand. He quickly attached the bow and arrow, raised his hand and shot out.
"Whizzing..."
Two more arrows shot out rapidly.
The two goblin mercenaries fell down again on the ice.
What follows is ruthless killing.
With the help of Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin's strength, and Morgan's superb archery skills.
A dozen or twenty Goblin mercenaries were quickly slaughtered in just a few minutes.
When the tall leading Goblin mercenary saw that the battle situation had taken a turn for the worse and there was no possibility of victory, he immediately turned around and ran away.
But the two dwarves on the ice had no time to catch up.
Morgan, who was standing on the boulder behind him, was well prepared. He had long noticed the tall Goblin in the Goblin team but was obviously afraid of death while paddling. He just raised his hand and shot out with an arrow.
The next second.
The leading goblin mercenary who was running wildly was struck by an arrow in the back of his head and fell down.
All other goblin monsters that tried to escape were shot to death by Morgan with a bow and arrow.
The battle between the two dwarves on the ice came to an end.
As the violent Godwalin chopped off the head of the last Goblin monster with an axe, all the Goblin monsters were killed.
at this time.
Bilbo's figure suddenly rushed towards the two dwarves on the ice from another direction.
Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin had already seen Morgan coming to help from behind in the battle just now. At this time, they were equally surprised and surprised to see Bilbo appear.
Bilbo, who had not seen Morgan for the moment, could no longer care much, and immediately panted heavily and said to Thorin Oakenshield: "You have to leave here immediately."
"Azog also has a large army that will attack from the north soon. By then, this watchtower will be completely surrounded, and none of you will be able to get out at that time."
Bilbo finished speaking urgently, breathing heavily.
The irritable Godwalin reacted the fastest and immediately said: "We can't leave, that half-orc bastard is here, we can kill him right away!"
He said that he was about to leave and continue searching.
"No!"
Thorin Oakenshield, who had realized something was wrong, immediately stopped Dwalin and spoke calmly and slowly: "That's just what he wanted. They lured us up. This, this is probably a trap..."
"Yes, this is a trap!"
Before Thorin finished speaking, Morgan's voice came from behind. He jumped down from the boulder in the distance and was walking towards this side.
at this time.
A strange rumbling sound immediately came from the huge dilapidated and abandoned tower far ahead.
At the same time, a bright yellow fire ignited in the black tower that was originally shrouded in hazy cold fog.
The three people on the frozen lake immediately turned their heads and looked up.
Morgan's expression suddenly changed when he saw the fire on the opposite tower, and he immediately dodged and hid behind an abandoned stone wall.
Opposite, inside the giant black ruined tower.
As a large number of firelights lit up, the originally dark tower immediately became brighter.
On the ice, looking at the light from the tower above, Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin Bilbo immediately showed solemn expressions on their faces.
But the next scene completely stunned the three of them.
In the dim light of the fire, I saw several orcs surrounding a tall, strong orc with pale and ferocious skin walking out.
Who else could it be if it wasn't Azog, the orc leader they were looking for?
Then, they saw Azog's intact hand holding a short blond figure covered in scars.
It was Fili, one of the two nephews who was sent out to search by Thorin Oakenshield before.
"Oh my God, it's Fili..."
The moment he saw the figure above clearly, Bilbo looked shocked and murmured to himself.
Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin looked even more unbelievable.
At the edge of the broken tower, looking at the expressions on the three faces below in the distance, Azog was very satisfied. He raised the small figure in his hand high, looked at Thorin Oakenshield below and said slowly and coldly: "This is the first one. He will die before you..."
at the same time.
The ground floor of the tower below.
The dwarf Kili, who was still searching, immediately raised his head when he heard the voice coming from above, and saw the figure of his brother Fili being raised high in the air by a big hand.
Kili was stunned for a moment.
at the same time.
Morgan, who was hiding behind the broken stone wall behind Thorin Oakenshield and others, was holding a long bow and arrows. When he heard Azog's voice, he quietly popped up and glanced at Azog on the tower opposite, and then quickly retreated.
This was Morgan's pre-aim, the distance was far away and there was only one chance.
Not only can he not alert the enemy, but he must hit the mark with one hit.
Otherwise, if there is a slight mistake, Feilidu will have no choice but to die.
"He is the first..."
"And then there's his brother..."
Azog's voice continued, but every word he said made the four people below look extremely angry, worried, but helpless.
"The two brothers will die first, and then you, Thorin Oakenshield..."
Having said this, Azog looked extremely ferocious and slowly raised his other left hand, which was forged into a sharp stabbing sword.
"You will die in the end, and I want you to see it with your own eyes..."
"It's now!"
When Morgan, who was hiding behind the broken stone wall, heard this, he looked extremely calm and activated his special skill: "Eagle Eye!"
Immediately after Azog spoke, he stood up suddenly, stretched the long bow into a full moon, and shot out in an instant.
The speed was so fast that no one at the scene had time to react.
"Whoosh..."
The arrows roared towards the tower with a rapid sound of breaking through the air.
On the ruined tower, Azog noticed something was wrong the moment he saw the human figure standing far below with a bow raised.
Just reacted.
He felt something hit the right hand of the blond dwarf, which was holding the blond man high, and an incomparable pain came, making his hand tremble instantly, making him unable to hold the dwarf in his hand.
Azog reacted so quickly that he didn't even have time to get angry. He was transformed into a stabbing sword and suddenly stabbed the dwarf who fell in front of him.
Just a step slower, he stabbed in the air, and the dwarf Fili fell straight down.
At this moment, Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin Bilbo reacted on the frozen lake.
what happened?
It seemed that Azog's hand was hit by an arrow and Fili fell?
Who shot this arrow?
Morgan! It must be Morgan!
Everything happened so fast that the three of them had no time to react.
Then I heard Morgan yelling from behind: "Thorin, hurry up, save Fili!"
"quick!"
at the same time.
Azog on the black tower looked at the wrist where his right hand was shot, and then looked at the falling dwarf, and roared with great anger: "Quick!"
"Go down and kill that dwarf!"
"We must kill him!"
On the ice, they realized that Azog had been hit by an arrow in his hand and that Fili had fallen. Thorin Oakenshield and Dwalin Bilbo were all overjoyed when they realized it.
But when he heard the roar coming from behind Morgan, he immediately reacted.
If Fili fell from such a high tower, even if he didn't fall to death easily, he would definitely be seriously injured.
If he is caught by the orcs again at this time, I am afraid no one can save him.
The three of Thorin immediately ran towards the tower ahead.
On the black tower.
Under the furious roar of the great leader Azog, the orcs behind him also reacted, turned around and ran towards the tower below.
Both parties were running towards the bottom of the tower.
And Morgan, who caused all this, just jumped out from behind the broken stone wall.
Also running towards the tower.
The arrow he just shot had not occurred to him to shoot Azog directly in the head. In this way, it would not only kill Azog, but also achieve the same effect of saving Fili.
However, the distance was too far, and the howling cold wind in the sky was too strong.
In addition, Azog is very powerful. He can shoot his arm or his head, so the opponent feels a different sense of crisis.
The stronger the strength, the faster the reaction, and the stronger the sense of danger.
This is what Morgan clearly felt after his strength was continuously strengthened.
Although he was not completely sure of hitting Azog's arm, the chance was much higher than shooting the opponent's head.
Comparing the two, Morgan would naturally choose the former with a higher success rate.
Speaking of which, Thorin Oakenshield is awake.
For his contribution on the expedition and for saving his life several times.
Plus the amazing arrow that now saves Fili.
Coupled with his status as Teacher Qili.
As long as the two crown princes Thorin Oakenshield and Filikili, who are the kings under the mountain, are not dead this time.
For the kindness Morgan had shown them.
As long as he is not a rebel against the kingdom under the mountain, the Turin dwarves will definitely respect him immensely.
Of course, this assumes that the three of them did not die in this battle.
At that time, he will also add his friendship with Bard of River Valley Town.
And Thranduil, the King of Mirkwood...forget it, the Elf King doesn't count for now.
As well as Morgan's own identity and strength as a dragon slayer.
From now on, Morgan will not only be able to walk sideways throughout the north of Middle-earth.
Even in the entire Middle-earth world, he can also be regarded as the number one figure.
at this time.
The sound of fierce fighting coming from the front immediately brought Morgan back to his senses.
He hung the long bow on his back and drew out the elf sword from his waist.
Morgan rushed straight towards the dim tower ahead.
