Chapter 135 Moria

Levi was not sure whether it was a good thing for a newborn dragon that had not experienced any complicated things to let it experience separation too early.

Although for a dragon with an infinite lifespan, farewell must be a common occurrence in the days to come, but it is still young after all.

"Forget it, I'll have it sooner or later."

Spreading the powder and letting the two continue playing, Levi returned to the castle, spread out the map, and began to plan his next trip.

Lothlórien.

If you have a destination, you must have a route.

A line is drawn from the roadside fort to Moria.

Then there is the exit on the east side of Moria. Not far from this exit is the golden forest, and the two places are almost close to each other.

Looking at these two places, Levi was also a little emotional.

Looking back on the past, dwarves and elves once had a sincere friendship, and they also enthusiastically helped the elves. Unfortunately, in the end, the dwarves were harmed by their increasingly greedy and stubborn characters.

The ring given to the dwarves by Sauron made them as greedy as evil dragons, hating all those who tried to take away their treasures, but their stubbornness prevented them from yielding to the darkness and not being controlled by Sauron.

After obtaining the ring, the dwarves of Khazad-dûm dispatched a large army under the leadership of the contemporary king, Durin III, to help the elves resist Sauron. It was only with their help that Elrond was able to retreat smoothly.

This is also why Elrond was so tolerant of Thorin and his party in Rivendell. It was all thanks to his ancestors.

The partial defeat in that battle made Sauron so angry that he directly ordered the Orcs to be enemies of the dwarves forever and target the dwarves everywhere.

From then on, the two races fought fiercely whenever they met, and their jealousy and hatred were deeper than any other.

"Just leave from here."

Moria.

In the autumn of this year, Li Wei set out from the roadside fort and rowed all the way south, crossing the Xiangshui River and going straight down to Eregion, passing through many ruins and arriving at a lake under the Misty Mountains.

This is where the west gate of Moria is.

Under the night sky, Levi stared at his reflection in the lake, stretched out his hand and clicked on the edge of the lake.

Ripples spread to the distance, disturbing things within.

And when the ripples subsided, the lake remained dead silent.

"Hi, is anyone here!?"

Levi shouted into the lake and threw another stone in.

However, the expected movement did not appear.

Of course, Levi was not out of his mind. He was just trying to call out the indescribable "monitor" in the water with huge tentacles.

However, although the watcher in the water did not respond to Levi, another voice appeared on the mountain beside him.

roar--!

A warg climbed up the mountain, revealing its ferocious head. Its scarlet eyes stared at the human beings who came to the door below.

You know, this place is now called Moria, not Khazad-dûm, and the former name means that it is still full of darkness, full of Orcs, wolves, trolls and some giant beasts. .

"Only one warg?"

Just when Levi was thinking this, another wolf emerged from the other side of the warg that showed its head.

Immediately afterwards, dense red dots emerged from the mountain peak.

A pack of wargs.

Levi licked his lips and drew his sword.

Swish——

Under the moonlight, the nemesis glowed with a cold light, but that light was like a thorn in the eyes of the wargs, causing them to retreat uncontrollably.

And when Levi took two steps forward, exposing his face and figure to the moonlight.

The leading warg suddenly howled, turned around and ran down the hill.

The other wargs next to them seemed to have just woken up, and ran after the leading warg without looking back.

For a while, the area became quiet again.

“…”

Levi silently took back his sword, turned around and looked at the place he was looking for.

Next to this deep lake, there is a vertical and smooth rock wall that looks like it has been cut by something. As Levi gradually approached, several patterns lit up in the middle of the smooth rock wall.

This is a hard magical door mixed with the craftsmanship of elves and dwarves. Even Sauron's army in his heyday could not break through it and could only be blocked out.

And to open it, you need a secret word.

"Mellon."

Levi uttered the syllable, which meant "friend" in Elvish.

Wow.

The magical door opens automatically.

The door to a dwarf kingdom needs to be unlocked in Elvish language, which is enough to prove the friendship that once existed between the two races.

In fact, the door itself is also a symbol of friendship between the two parties. It is always open and closed when Eregion is not destroyed.

But at this time, it's better to keep it closed.

As the door closed, the only light source disappeared, leaving only darkness inside, making it difficult to see anything.

Levi didn't take out the torch, but drank a bottle of night vision potion.

The field of vision suddenly broadened.

Levi opened his eyes wide.

There were only two thick stone pillars dozens of meters high standing in the huge cavity, guarding the wide passage leading inside.

There is also a small door on both sides of the stone pillar.

There was no rush to move forward.

Crunch.

One of the small doors on both sides of the stone pillar was pushed open.

What you see is a not too big room. There are several beds made of woven straw placed inside, next to a fireplace. There are some empty weapon racks hanging on the wall in front of the bed. In front of the weapon racks is a A small table with dusty plates and wine glasses.

"Outpost?"

Levi thought of a word to describe this place.

It can be seen that no one has been here for a long time. Of course, after the fall, this kind of place will not be of much use.

After touching the outposts on both sides, he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets but found nothing good. Levi just kept rubbing his hands.

Players are addicted to searching, and they feel uncomfortable if they don't dig out some good things in the ruins.

After closing the gate of the outpost, Levi walked towards the wide passage between the stone pillars and walked all the way inside until he reached a dangerous path.

With the night vision effect, Levi could see the entire terrain outline here.

The path was close to the rock wall, and below was a deep valley with no bottom. There seemed to be something moving somewhere in the very depths, like an Oak, but judging from his appearance, he did not notice anyone above him.

Looking up, Levi discovered that the road connected in three directions, up, middle and down. The top one followed a dwarf-style passage, and the other two did not know where they led.

Levi walked up without hesitation.

Facts have proved that this choice is right.

Soon, a wide hall appeared in front of you.

As always, it is in the grand style of the dwarves, tall and wide, supported by multiple stone pillars. If the walking height of one of the stairs leading up was not too short, some would believe that giants live here.

It was quiet all around, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

Levi walked along this road for a long time, until all the night vision potion in his backpack was finished. He had to take out the alchemy table and various materials from the ender box and refine some on the spot.

This boring journey lasted for several days, with all kinds of detours and obstacles that I couldn't understand at all. Sometimes I just walked to the end, and sometimes I ended up in a room I didn't know after twisting and turning.

This reminded Levi of a rumor: the entire Moria itself is a huge maze.

After being lost for several days, Levi became anxious.

He took out the pickaxe directly.

"Forgive me, Thorin, your place is too difficult to walk around. I will help you repair it a little bit."
