Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1102 1084. Revenge

Fire like a wave spewed out from Smaug's throat!

The temperature of the flame was extremely high, and it passed over the position where Bilbo was standing. Logically speaking, the high temperature of the flame only lasted for a very short time.

But on the ground, the scattered dwarf gold coins had changed from angular to disintegrated liquid, and were stuck on the rocky ground.

Smaug was so angry at being teased that he was breathing fire in the treasure hall like he was going crazy.

Dragon flames surge upward from its throat, and its stretched neck points upward.

Like a wave, the dragon flames rose hundreds of meters and hit the ceiling of the treasure hall. Then, they spread around under the obstruction of the mountain, and then 'flowed' down the walls of the treasure hall.

The hugeness and power of this dragon flame is simply indescribable!

Even the shocking Jinshan Mountain of the Gushan Kingdom seems small in front of the current wave of fire!

The originally dim Gushan Kingdom, after a long period of time since its demise, has once again ignited with blazing fire!

The evil dragon who was teased vented its anger wantonly in the treasure hall. It smashed and swore loudly at the same time.

 Swore that he would slowly roast the criminals who dared to steal his treasures, and vowed to eat all the dwarves who planned this operation, just like it had done to the dwarves who had not escaped from the Lonely Mountain.

Bilbo didn't dare to look back, and only dared to climb up the stairs in one breath. Exhausted and mentally exhausted, he could only take off the magic ring on his hand at a safer corner, revealing his figure.

 Compared to running, using this ring puts more physical and mental pressure on him.

At this moment, Bilbo saw Thorin, standing higher up on his floor.

 The stairs of the dwarves were built just like the elves, without guardrails or protection, so Bilbo could directly see the people above him.

 Perhaps what the dragon said to Bilbo just now contained evil magic.

At this time, Bilbo saw Thorin, the friend and leader he had established friendship with during the journey, and he felt greatly relieved. He felt that he had really thought too much before.

 They didn’t abandon me, they came straight in to find me!

Bilbo hurriedly walked up to Thorin's floor.

 But just when Bilbo wanted to pull the dwarf prince to retreat together, he saw Thorin's appearance.

This leader who was brave, persistent, and even sacrificed himself many times in the face of danger during the journey, originally in Bilbo's heart, he was worthy of the word wise and mighty.

but now

Thorin looked at the treasure hall filled with gold, silver, seas, and luxurious treasures. He began to breathe heavily unconsciously, and did not notice that Bilbo was behind him at all.

 This is not normal.

Bilbo thought to himself.

Thorin is a warrior among the dwarves. He can climb the entire mountain with his arms without changing his face and without stopping. He can fight head-on with the orcs' hammers and take blows. He can also be alert to hidden arrows shot from a distance.

Thorin's panting was not caused by the fatigue of running all the way from the secret door to the treasure hall. This journey could not even make his heart rate increase.

This kind of panting is more like when you get what you want, you are so excited that you can’t help yourself, and your body automatically begins to pant in order to calm down your mood.

Bilbo opened his mouth and raised his hand in confusion, but hesitated a little.

 “You’re alive!” In the end, Thorin, who had recovered a little from the mountains of gold and silver, saw him first.

 “If you don’t leave, you won’t live much longer!”

Bilbo also relaxed and put aside the doubts in his heart. As he spoke, he wanted to withdraw from the treasure hall with Thorin and go to the narrow mountain corridor.

 But I haven’t taken two steps yet.

"Arkenstone!" Thorin dragged Bilbo reluctantly, "Have you found the Arkenstone?"

They have been traveling together for a year. During this year, they first doubted each other, but later helped each other and recognized each other.

But Bilbo had never felt that Thorin's questioning would make him feel so uncomfortable, as if he had been pricked by a needle.

The hobbit's lips moved and he was stunned.

I wanted to say something but didn't say it. In the end I just nodded and walked into the corridor.

 “Let’s go in first! The evil dragon is coming!”

 “Bang!”

But just as Bilbo was about to go in, Thorin's long sword was placed across the edge of the door frame, blocking the way.

Bilbo looked at Thorin with disbelief and unreasonable eyes.

 The look he looked at Thorin seemed even more terrifying than the way he looked at Smaug just now.

Thorin said nothing, but looked at Bilbo with eyes that were dark and gloomy under the firelight of the dragon.

Bilbo scratched his head and looked around. He didn't really want to see anything. This was just his habitual action when he couldn't understand the situation.

 Why. What’s going on with Thorin now?

 Are the rumors about the "Dragon Disease" in the King of the Mountain family true? !

At this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps and the huge shadow cast by the fire came from the direction of Jinshan.

Smaug heard the argument here, and he turned to look here!

 Under the threat of the dragon, Thorin seemed to be normal.

 He himself frowned, looking at the sword he had blocked on the door frame.

Immediately afterwards, a group of dwarves rushed out from the door frame behind Thorin. They were only half a minute behind Thorin.

 “Come on! We are coming!”

The dwarves each let out a courageous roar and started doing things with hammers, axes and other things. He stood with Thorin who had regained consciousness.

 “Ah, it turns out they are a group of dwarves! Okay! Okay!”

The dragon's whisper resonated through its huge chest, and the sound it made was heart-wrenching.

 The wing claws and hind legs moved, approaching the dwarves.

On the stairs to the upper level, a figure of three colors also jumped down lightly. He happened to fall in the middle of a row of dwarves and the hobbits who were protected by the dwarves behind them.

 Smaug's anger suddenly became more intense when he saw the flannel ball and Bilbo.

 “Thief! Thief!”

At this time, the flannel ball had put on its own equipment again, and its little paws were still reaching into its small pocket, trying to take out something.

"I take."

 The kitten was about to take out something happily, but Bilbo behind it looked frozen. Before he could finish speaking, he hugged Ellu and shouted.

 “Run! It’s going to breathe fire!”

 After many years, Bilbo and Fluffy Ball are the only creatures who have seen the dragon alive.

 Coupled with the setbacks and dangers experienced in the previous journey, the hobbits and the dwarves have recognized and trusted each other, and the dwarves certainly trust his judgment.

 Immediately, more than a dozen people hurriedly ran back.

There is terrain suitable for avoiding the dragon's flame spray, and there is also a small door that can be used for transfer.

 And sure enough, the next moment the dwarves set off.

"Roar!!"

With the roar, a wave of dragon flames spread towards their original direction.

 Fortunately, Bilbo reminded him in time, that is, after Thorin took the initiative to stop, one of his coats was taken off, and nothing happened to the others.

 But the situation did not get better. The evil dragon still blocked them and was ready to chase them in this lonely mountain.

The velvet ball that rushed in with Bilbo's arms was very smart and didn't say anything anymore. He just looked at his hobbit friend with doubtful eyes.

Bilbo pressed down the small package of flannel ball without any trace, and at the same time shook his head slightly towards it seriously.

 This was not the time to speak, but Bilbo still provided enough hints for the fluff ball to understand.

So even though the Sanhua Ailu cat frowned, she still tightened the pocket of the small package and put it in a safe place on her body.

 It believed that Bilbo was justified in doing so.

The Solitary Mountain Kingdom is composed of the huge hollow formed by the dwarves who have been digging under the Solitary Mountain.

It is well connected in all directions, and many places are very small.

 It is difficult for the evil dragon to harm the people hiding in these places, but it does not need to harm them.

As long as it blocks the exit from the upper level, Thorin and the others will be trapped alive in the kingdom that has been abandoned for a long time!

This is a big mine, and all living supplies depend on gold and jewelry brought in from outside trade, including drinking water and food.

 Thorin and the others were forced to the lower level, and logically they were trapped.

But when the dwarf prince faced Smaug, the enemy who would destroy his country, he burst out with immense hatred and determination.

His reckless actions infected all the dwarves. In the end, through their familiarity with the terrain and equipment in the Lonely Mountain, the dwarves tried their best to finally hurt Smaug.

 They led the evil dragon to the king's hall, in front of the unfinished statues of the previous kings.

 Finally, the stone shell outside the statue was smashed, revealing the true appearance of the solid and thick statue, which is more than fifty meters high. The entire statue is made of pure gold!

The dwarves used Smaug's flame as fire to restart the alchemical furnace in advance. With the dwarves' technology, this furnace can even easily heat the flame to blue!

 The melting point of gold is not high, just over a thousand degrees.

After being transported by such heat for a period of time, this huge statue, which was not completed until the solitary mountain was conquered, collapsed from solid to liquid almost instantly after the stone shell fell off!

Smaug, who was obsessed with gold, didn't even know there was such a treasure in the mountain, so he stared in front of the statue for a while.

But immediately, the fifty-meter-tall golden statue collapsed into a liquid state. The heavy mass was like viscous running water, rushing towards the evil dragon and pressing it under the liquid gold!

The King's Hall was originally an atrium surrounded by five steps. This large amount of gold liquid filled the atrium almost instantly.

 Smaug’s huge body was invisible under the liquid gold.

The depth of this golden pool is only five steps, but for such a big dragon, it is so flattened by the gold that when viewed from above, there is only golden liquid without any fluctuations.

Looking at the large golden pool shining with psychedelic light, Thorin's eyes were blurred and immersed.

 However, the dragon is not so easy to kill.

Even though the chest of his body was pressed by the huge amount of heavy liquid gold, which was not even five steps high, Smaug still struggled crazily and climbed out of the gold pool!

 When it climbed out of the golden pool, the whole dragon was stained with bright gold!

It crawled out using its hands and feet, and the pain of having its chest almost crushed tormented it, but it also made it fearful and at the same time, even more angry!

　　"You are seeking revenge from me! Okay! Revenge! Let me show you what revenge is!"

 The body of the evil dragon, which was even heavier because it was coated with a layer of gold, flapped randomly on the ground and was dragged forward.

 It does not dare to continue dealing with the dwarves in the lonely mountain, but this does not mean that it cannot retaliate!

“You must have been helped by those humble fishermen from Changhu Town to be able to come here!”

 “They think they can get a share of the treasure by helping the dwarves? It’s a bad idea from a group of fishermen!”

It ran out and shouted loudly!

But Bilbo became panicked for a moment. He even tried to stand in front of Smaug who was running out and waved his hand to stop him.

 “No, no, no!”

The hobbit's voice was not loud at first, just murmuring, but finally he shouted loudly.

“It has nothing to do with them! If you want revenge, come to me!”

“No, I’m not looking for you!” Smaug wanted to leave, but no one could stop him now, so he even bowed his head in response to the hobbit.

"You care about them? Then I should look for them! I want you to watch them die!"
