Crossing the Marsh of Har

"Hoohoo~" Everyone was running, and the wolf behind them was chasing them.

An inexplicable sense of familiarity came to mind, Sorin and the others

wanted to laugh, but couldn't.

"What to do, it won't work like this!" Groin cast a glance at the child

under his armpit, endured his panting lungs, and said aloud.

If it was normal, they would not be in such an embarrassment, but they

still have to rescue these children.

These "burdens" have seriously slowed down their pace and greatly drained

their stamina. If this continues, they will be finished sooner or later.

"Let me break the queen!" Karl said again. To be honest, he didn't have the

slightest pressure in his heart to fight Oak in such terrain.

Comes like the wind, goes like a shadow, as long as he wants, he can

retreat at any time.

"No, behind them are most of the Orcs' army, numbering in the thousands,

and led by Azog, the only way to stay is to die." Gandalf shook his head.

Compared with before, this gap is undoubtedly wider. A Zuoge really paid a

lot of money for them.

"Gandalf, why don't you trust me? Don't you know my strength?" Carl said,

leaving Gandalf behind.

Although earth bombs were used a lot last time, and there were not many

Molotov cocktails left, although his own strength may not be able to deal with

all the pursuers behind him, delay can still be easily done.

aside,

"Groin, Bahrain, you and Qili, Nuoli, Feili, Pangbo, and Biver take the

children back, and we will stay behind." Sorin suddenly said.

He also understood the current situation, and knew that this would not

work, but it was obvious that leaving Karl alone would not be able to deal with

so many Orc armies, so after difficult choices, he finally made a decision.

"Here, Sorin, how can you stay, let me stay, you take it,"

"Enough, Balin, I have made my decision, and nothing will happen." Thorin

interrupted the old dwarf.

The purpose of his trip was to get back the Arken gem, but now he has

deviated from his original intention, but now, he has given up halfway, and it

seems impossible to leave his teammates and escape alone, so he has to... fight

again.

Moreover, the guy behind him - A Zuoge, was his enemy in the first place,

and now he is chasing him so closely, he is also coming after him. If he stays,

A Zuoge will definitely change his target.

The dwarves understood Thorin's thoughts, but they were still embarrassed.

Just when everyone was in a dilemma, an inexplicable voice suddenly

sounded: "Master, I have a way to deal with the pursuers behind."

The person who spoke was Gulu who had been following Karl all the time.

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Gulu, with surprise and suspicion

flashing in their eyes.

Karl also asked with some interest: "What can you do?"

"There is a magic snake living in the north of the forest. Its name is

Uvali, that guy," Gulu suddenly showed a cruel smile on his face.

Said: "That guy has a very bad temper, he doesn't like people going to his

place to disturb his peace, and if someone provokes him, he will be furious,

spray venom, and grind him into pieces of meat paste ."

Carl looked at Gulu, an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, he paused,

and asked, "Are you sure, are you sure where you can take us through?"

He already understood Gulu's meaning, did he want to delay time with that

snake? Although this idea is good, but since that snake is so violent, it

probably won't show mercy to those who are also planning to cross its

territory.

"Of course, master, I will lead you safely through that swamp, I swear."

Gulu shouted again, and seeing Karl hesitate, he thought he was worried, and

said quickly, "Master, please believe me, I will never, never betray you,

please trust me."

Karl glanced at Gulu again, only to see that its eyes were full of longing,

looking at him expectantly.

"Okay, let's go then!" Karl finally nodded.

He can take this opportunity to see if Gulu's performance is as he said. Of

course, if the situation is really going in the worst direction, Karl is not

worried at all, but it is just an Oak wolf cavalry. It is really a last resort.

Don't mind putting in a little more effort.

The crowd finally changed direction again and ran towards the north

There is a swamp in the North, called the Howl Swamp, which is the

birthplace of the Howl Waterway.

There are tall grasses, barren tall trees, and knee-deep water.

The water is turbid and yellow, mixed with aquatic plants, making it

difficult to see what is hidden below.

Suddenly there was a change in the originally quiet swamp, and the water

rippled. Gulu volunteered to walk ahead and led the crowd through the water.

For it, this is indeed a hard job, because he can't help but break through

the obstructing aquatic plants, and also be careful of hidden poisonous insects

or snakes.

However, Gulu seemed to know where he should go and how to do it best. He

looked very skilled and behaved calmly.

While walking, it asked the crowd not to make too much noise.

Gulu is indeed very familiar with this place, or in other words, he is very

familiar with most places in the Misty Mountains.

He has lived here for thousands of years since he took on this ghostly

appearance. From another perspective, this place is probably his "home".

No one is unfamiliar with the situation in their own home, and Gulu is the

same.
