52 Escape and upstream

Just as Beregost in the blue mountains was about to fall, a team of elves reconnaissance team was moving forward rapidly along the bumpy wasteland far away in a vast wasteland far northeast of the edge of the mountain.

They rode tall white war horses and watched the endless wasteland roads with a heavy face.

And behind them was an army standing at the end of the plain.

The army of the Nodo people.

"This road is very long. If we continue to pursue, we may be attacked by both sides of the enemy."

Looking at the gloomy plain sky above his head and the hazy shadows of mountains on the edge of his sight, the black-haired elf at the forefront of the army said.

"But if the dwarves in the mountains cannot resist, we will be too passive." Another tall black-haired elf frowned.

"Don't underestimate those dwarves. When I visited Nogrod last time, everything I saw was not simple." The elf who spoke first shook his head.

"Besides, relying on Eredluo's geographical advantage, how much danger can they have? But if we catch up, it would be bad if we really fall into the trap."

As he said, thinking of the enemy's nest in his back, he couldn't help but feel haze in his heart.

The encirclement line of the Nodo tribe has been maintained for nearly three hundred years, but not long ago, a large number of orc troops suddenly rushed out of the Angban, which caught them off guard and was completely unattended to take care of other situations.

The army was huge, but facing the Nodo coalition on the encirclement line, it gradually became no match for it. It ran around and was eventually wiped out by the entire Nodo tribe.

But when these two elves lords reacted, they suddenly discovered that there were traces of another military marching in the area they were surveillance!

The direction of this trace spread was not Berryander, but a barren land outside Berryander. There was no need to be prepared for it and had been neglecting to monitor it.

However, after following the trace, they were shocked to find that the target of the enemy in the north was the two dwarves in the blue mountains!

This discovery made them feel extremely heavy.

The dwarves in the mountains occupy the only passage across the blue mountains. If this road is opened, the encirclement line that has lasted for nearly three hundred years can be called self-defeating.

Even if they can make up for it later, they still need to re-arrange fortifications on this new route.

Moreover, the levels in the Blue Mountains are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and can directly reach the hinterland of the mainland. If they are really occupied, this combat advantage will be extremely troublesome.

So when they find this, it is difficult to maintain a normal mentality.

It was just that they were asked to pursue it in depth, but they were also full of hesitation.

There was an army that had been marching for a long time in front and a demon shadow behind Angban's enemy nest. Even if there were other Nodo helps around, the two Nodo royals were at risk of being attacked alone - no other. This road was too long, and they had never thought that the enemy would take advantage of this in the past.

So after hesitating for a long time, the leader turned his head and said, "Go back to defend, the combat power of the dwarves is no worse than that of us, and that big worm cannot break their defense."

Seeing that he made up his mind, the one beside him breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled: "Hundreds of years of comfort, the enemy seems to be becoming more and more stupid. His plan will not succeed, but it is enough to pull the dwarves into our front line. The short men who only care about mining in Ered Road are very revenge."

...

The dwarves who were called by the Nodo elves who were only concerned about mining in their nests were fleeing in panic at this time.

Looking down from the sky, you can see densely packed small black dots running on the still flat mountain road, forming a long, snake-like team.

The team looked like a big bearded and thin robe, and only behind were there were full armed dwarf soldiers.

Behind the long snake was an abandoned mountain fortress. There were rumbling sounds from the closed gate, and then suddenly shattered at a certain moment.

As the rocks splashed, a huge lizard poked out from it, but then it shrank back again.

Instead, there are behemoths burning flames all over their bodies, and dirty soldiers who look shorter and hunched more than dwarves.

Because there are both young and old in the team, the dwarves' escape speed cannot be compared with the pursuit team. So although they escaped one step ahead, they were still bitten by the pursuers behind them soon after!

Two black "long snakes" collided together, and the one behind was fierce and vicious, invincible under the puncture of scarlet fangs, so that the one in front could only cut off its tail and survive in a row.

This situation was not eased until I encountered the first pass on the road, but I still couldn't fight against the enemy who was chasing him.

The road to escape seems long and dangerous.

...

Under the roar, another canyon rock level was broken. The black-braided dwarf king who escaped was calling the soldiers to run south, and he was at the last side with Charles riding on the white deer.

Looking at the flame figures that broke out from the stone, King Berregost no longer had the nature of cursing, but his tone was full of low voice.

"How can we open up a new path be as convenient as snatching the existing path? I should have thought of it long ago..."

Charles did not respond, raised his sour arms and put on a bow, and then shot an arrow at the head-on fire demon who was rushing towards him.

The arrow sniffed and inserted it into the left half of the Flame Demon's chest, but it did not kill the enemy. Instead, it made it very fierce and ran faster.

The carefully forged arrows of the dwarves can allow the bow and arrow to break through the strong defense of the Flame Demon, but they cannot penetrate deeper like the sword of Nasir.

Although Charle already has the combat ability to fight the Flame Demon alone, the dense army is obviously not a decoration. If he dares to go up recklessly, the others will dare to rush forward and then siege him to death.

"That damn Morgoth must have known that there were stone giants on that route, but we ran into it so carelessly. Yes, it must be like that. The orcs who built the road were simply bait!"

Riding on the black-haired porcupine with a spike all over his body, the dwarf king, whose face was still charred, gritted his teeth and exposed his big white teeth.

This strange mount was originally ridden by the old king of Nogrod, but the short, fat and cunning dwarf king unfortunately fell in Berregost. Instead, the large porcupine more than one meter tall under his crotch survived and was then captured by the person in front of him.

...

After a few simple arrows, the two kings rode their respective mounts forward.

At this time, the situation seemed both desolate and urgent, with dwarf soldiers constantly losing their losses, and long roads of mountains and forests passed one after another.

Faced with the relentless pursuit of the northern army, they can only be glad that the fire-breathing insect did not catch up.

Of course, this may also be because the road is narrow and the big bug that cannot fly is not suitable for chasing.

However, no matter what, Beregost, one of the two major city-states of the Dwarf, was already occupied by the enemy at this time!

Thinking about this unfortunate experience and the ongoing crisis, it is not difficult to imagine why the dwarf king, who is in his prime, complains like a grudge.

He was not sure whether the guess he had in his mouth was true, but he suddenly woke up to Shire.

During the journey, he pondered on the deer's back for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

The slowing speed approached and the Dwarf King said a few words, and then under his astonished gaze, Char suddenly left the large army and rushed to a corner of the road ahead.
