Taiwanese Novel Network →🅣🅦🅚🅐🅝.🅒🅞🅜

In the year 1980 of the Third Age, the Dwarves of Khazad-dûm encountered a Balrog while excavating the mithril mines under the Redhorn Peak.

This Balrog may have been awakened by the Dwarves' excavation, or it may have been revived by Sauron's growing power.

King Durin VI was killed by the Balrog; the following year, Durin's son Nain I also died at his hands.

Khazad-dûm was abandoned by the Dwarves and known to the world as Moria - "The Dark Pit", where evil creatures such as Orcs occupied.

Chang Wei and Gandalf saw that a huge monster appeared in front of them.

The air around them suddenly became hotter because of the appearance of this huge monster.

The shadow around it expanded like two huge wings.

It walked up slowly, and suddenly its body grew taller and taller, with its wings spread out to the walls on both sides of the hall.

They awakened a sleeping horror that had fled from Thangorodrim and hid here.

It had burning yellow eyes and a mane of burning flames and steam.

Its arms were long and powerful, with steel claws, and its outline was like a huge human figure, with a wandering shadow, and a blazing flame at its core.

"This is... the Balrog!"

Gandalf said with an ugly face.

The hot wind blowing in their faces made everyone feel as if their hair was burnt.

"The Balrog is a demon from the abyss in ancient times, an enemy of the gods in the past. We are not his opponents, let's leave quickly."

Gandalf said to everyone hurriedly.

"Gandalf!"

Aragorn still wanted to insist.

"Go quickly, the sword can't hurt the Balrog!"

Gandalf said.

Chang Wei looked weird. In the original plot, Gandalf just said that the sword couldn't hurt the Balrog, and then he killed the Balrog with his sword.

In this meeting between colleagues, the Balrog came because he felt Gandalf's breath and was woken up by Gandalf's loud voice.

Gandalf planned to stay behind to cover them, because they couldn't run away at this distance.

"Chang Wei, Aragorn, they are in your hands, hurry up!"

Gandalf faced the Balrog.

Then he saw Chang Wei also stayed.

"Chang Wei, go quickly, they can't do without you, you can't solve it here!"

Gandalf was moved, but still wanted Chang Wei to leave, because after the Balrog appeared, his restless feeling suddenly reached its peak and soared to the limit!

This made him understand that this was his destined time.

He just didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

"Don't worry about me, my sword can hurt the Balrog!"

Chang Wei's hand wiped the sword, and the whole sword became cold. The visible coldness even made the surrounding hot wind disappear, becoming a little cool and cold.

Gandalf stared at Chang Wei's operation in amazement. The flaming sword just now was fine, but what about this frost sword that was full of cold air? Also, is your steel sword okay? It alternated between hot and cold, didn't it break like glass?

The key is that Chang Wei said he was a wizard, so why did you still use a sword?

Aragorn was also stunned, but at this time, the Balrog was already close at hand. Several arrows flew over and were shot away by Chang Wei and Legolas. They saw that the orcs who had just escaped appeared on the cliffs on both sides. At this time, they all attacked them with bows and arrows.

"Run!"

Gandalf didn't care about so much, the Balrog had already rushed up.

It can be seen that the Balrog was very excited and enthusiastic when meeting his former colleagues, and wanted to reminisce with Gandalf, although they might not know each other. The number of Maia was too large, just like the number of the gods Valar was also large, and they might not be able to recognize all of them.

The Balrog didn't speak. It drew out a red sword wrapped in flames, while Gandalf fought with the Glam Gling sword and staff. The Balrog's sword melted into pieces, while the Glam Gling sword remained intact.

The Balrog wielding the flaming whip was blocked by Gandalf with his sword. Chang Wei came to help at this time. He didn't know when he had come to the Balrog's feet and used the extremely cold Frost Sword to give the Balrog a pedicure.

The Balrog felt his feet were frozen. He looked at it in disbelief and found that there was a frost hole on his feet. The cold was spreading, but it was suppressed by its own huge flame.

Gandalf almost had a heart attack when he saw Chang Wei running so close.

"Chang Wei, don't be touched by the Balrog's flames. That's the devil's flames!!!"

Gandalf's voice became louder, shaking the mountain wall to the point of collapse.

He watched with fear as Chang Wei waved his sword and walked freely under the Balrog's attack.

Even the elf prince Legolas felt that this posture was indescribably elegant and graceful, which was in line with the aesthetics of the elves.

The Balrog was furious and was beaten dozens of times by Chang Wei. Gandalf looked at the frost on the Balrog's legs in surprise. These frosts could actually resist the Balrog's flames, but it was not enough. Chang Wei could not kill the Balrog.

Gandalf raised his staff.

He let out a thunderous roar, and a dazzling white light burst out of the staff in his hand like lightning.

"I am the servant of the Secret Fire, driving the Fire of Anor. You are not allowed to pass. The Fire of Udon and the Dark Fire can't help you. Go back to the Demon Shadow! You are not allowed to pass."

The Secret Fire is the creative power of Ilúvatar/Eru (the one who created the gods), the only one in that world. Gandalf said that he was the servant of the Secret Fire, which expressed his identity as a secondary god.

Arnor is a kind of Elvish language, which means "sun" in Sindarin. One understanding of the Fire of Arnor is the Secret Fire. Another understanding is that Gandalf used the Fire Ring Naya, one of the three Elf Rings given to him by an Elf Lord a long time ago.

Udun, also known as Utumno, is a fortress of Melkor (the predecessor of Sauron), the demon king in the early world. It means "hell". Gandalf may be referring to the evil flame on the whip of the Balrog.

The Balrog's magic flame was dispelled, and Chang Wei raised his hand and cast a frost spell. The Balrog was immediately hit hard, and ice froze on his chest.

Gandalf was even more surprised. Chang Wei's ice could actually freeze the Balrog. Could he also be a Maia?

Is this a Maia magic?

But that's not right. If Chang Wei was Maia, he should be able to feel it.

The Balrog was repelled by Gandalf's magic or Maia's divine art. Chang Wei strode forward.

"Ice, freeze the enemy in front of me, blizzard!"

Chang Wei waved his hand to summon a blizzard, and the whole cave was suddenly filled with cold wind. Visible ice crystals condensed from nothing. There were ice crystals everywhere. The Balrog was forced to retreat again and again by the blizzard. As the most terrifying creature, the Balrog never thought that he would have such a day.
