Chapter 3 Welcome to join us(2/2)

"It's almost time for them to arrive now, let's go."

Gandalf looked at the dark sky outside, smiled, stood up and walked out.

"Wait, Gandalf, aren't you going to pay the bill?"

Seeing a hobbit approaching Gordon asking for money, Gordon shouted speechlessly.

"Do you want me, an old man, to pay? I don't have any money?"

Gandalf turned back, spread his hands and shrugged, smiling.

"Okay, okay, the commission you mentioned is still missing. I gave you good tobacco and bought you a drink."

"Those dwarves are here, I'm going to ask a big price, so remember to speak for me."

After Gordon paid the money, he complained.

"Of course, no problem, just ask when the time comes."

Gandalf was smoking a dry pipe, his old face turned into a chrysanthemum smile.

"Let's go to that Bilbo Baggins' house, won't he refuse to attend?"

Gordon asked knowingly.

"Don't worry, he will definitely participate."

Gandalf said confidently.

The two of them walked quickly, and before long they were not far from Bilbo Baggins' house.

But before I even got close, I heard a commotion inside, as if a large group of chirping ducks had crowded into the room.

"This sound?"

"It's those dwarves!"

"Let's go..."

The two approached the door and Gandalf knocked on the door.

"Bang bang bang..."

Soon, Bilbo Baggins, with suppressed anger on his face, opened the door.

When he saw the two of them, he immediately shouted: "It turns out it's you two!"

"Gandalf..."

"Gandalf is coming..."

"Gandalf..."

The noise in the house became louder.

Then Gordon saw a dwarf who was about the same height as a hobbit, but tall, with a strong and handsome face, and wearing luxurious furs, walking over quickly.

Gordon knew very well that this should be the titular King Under the Mountain, Thorin Oakenshield.

The other party should also become his employer soon.

To make money and complete the task of killing the dragon Smaug, Gordon must join the Lonely Mountain Adventure Team.

Immediately afterwards, several people exchanged pleasantries.

The dwarves almost regarded Bilbo Baggins' home as their own, and a large amount of food was placed on the long dining table.

I have to say that when the thirteen dwarves gathered together, the atmosphere was very noisy and lively.

Soon, a group of dwarves took their seats, and Gordon and Gandalf, two tall men, also bowed and sat down at the long table.

Dinner, food, and drinks are now available!

The dwarves were happy, and so was Gordon Gandalf, but Bilbo Baggins was not happy.

Before the official meal, it is naturally time to talk about business.

He looked at the doubtful looks that Thorin Oakenshield and the dwarves looked at him frequently.

Gandalf then solemnly introduced Gordon.

"It's time to introduce you to me. This is Gordon, the helper I called..."

Before Gandalf could finish speaking, Thorin Oakenshield immediately interrupted: "Gandalf, didn't you tell us that our only helper is Bilbo, Mr. Snitch?"

"Are you bringing another human mercenary here now?"

Thorin Oakenshield said calmly, although his words were dissatisfied, his tone was very calm.

Seeing Thorin speaking, the group of dwarves all looked over quietly.

"Of course, but listen to me, this is no ordinary mercenary, but a demon hunter!"

"Demon hunter?"

"What is a demon hunter?"

"I know about human mercenaries, but what are demon hunters?"

"Who knows?"

After Gandalf finished speaking, a dwarf sitting there immediately asked in confusion.

Not only were the dwarves unaware, but Thorin Oakenshield himself frowned. He seemed to have heard of this name, but could not remember what it was.

"I know!"

At this time, sitting opposite Gordon, a short dwarf with white beard and hair suddenly spoke.

Gordon knew this dwarf with all white beard and hair. His name should be Balin. He was once an important minister of the kingdom under the mountain and the current right-hand man of Thorin Oakenshield.

Thorin Oakenshield is capable and strong, but has a proud and stubborn personality.

Among the dwarves present, if anyone could persuade Thorin Oakenshield, it was only Balin.

"Demon hunters, the truly strong ones among mercenaries are called demon hunters."

"Because demon hunters can not only deal with living creatures, but also ghosts!"

"Ghost, can you actually deal with ghosts?"

"Really or not, can he deal with ghosts?"

"Ouli, Nouli, have you ever seen a ghost? I've never seen one before?"

"No, I haven't seen it either, and I don't want to see it either..."

After Balin finished speaking, the dwarves immediately started chattering again.

"If this is the rumored demon hunter as Gandalf said, Thorin, we can definitely give him a copy of our commission agreement, just like we gave this Bilbo!"

Balin said and looked at Thorin Oakenshield and said seriously.

"Oh, can demon hunters really deal with ghosts?"

Thorin Oakenshield did not agree in a hurry, but looked at Gordon, his expression a little serious.

"What are ghosts? I have killed water ghosts and evil spirits before!"

"Of course, if you doubt my strength, you can give it a try. It won't be a problem for any of you to come."

Facing Thorin's suspicion, Gordon smiled on his face but was rude in his mouth.

He has known for a long time that no matter in the previous world or this world, only if you are strong enough, others will respect you and fear you, instead of relying on words.

Gandalf brought him here because he believed in him and also meant to test him. Gordon had slowly figured out some of the meaning.

What's more, with his current strength, except for Gandalf, who he was a little unsure about, he was not afraid of any of the thirteen dwarves present, or even together.

Naturally, he is not afraid of offending Thorin Oakenshield.

If he is really offended, he will go to Gushan alone and wait for the plot to happen.

But it would be best to join a small group of people. After all, his strength is far from enough to run rampant.

After hearing what Gordon said, some dwarves immediately couldn't sit still and looked at Thorin.

"There's no need to compete."

"I believe in Gandalf and I believe in you. I will always know in the future."

Thorin Oakenshield waved his hand to the dwarves not to get excited, and smiled.

Then he stood up and said, "Your name is Gordon, right? Welcome to join us. Let me introduce you."

"This is Bahrain, this is Kili, Fili, Groin, Oin, Noli, Ouli, Doli, Bifo..."

"And this, Bilbo Baggins..."

"No, I didn't promise you."
