legend begins with lord of the rings
Chapter 61: The Cursed Stream
After everyone saw Dwalin climbing up the tree branch and arriving directly above the stream, his movements became sluggish.
It is equivalent to slowing down a normal person's movements twice, and it is very obvious that the picture looks very inconsistent.
"Dwalin~
What's wrong with you?" Thorin called to Dwalin loudly.
"Oh... I'm fine... I'm just a little sleepy..." Dwalin suddenly "awoke" when he heard the sound, and he shook his dizzy head and answered.
Dwalin may not have noticed it himself, but his speaking voice has slowed down and his tone has become longer, giving people a strange feeling.
"Be careful. If you have any problems, remember to come back at any time." Thorin's face was heavy. Needless to say, there is definitely something wrong with this creek.
"Know...I feel great..." As the most powerful warrior among the dwarves, Dwalin has his own persistence.
In order to show his "strongness", when he answered Thorin, he stood up from the branch and raised his arms in a strong gesture.
"No~
Watch your step..." Thorin yelled at Dwalin. He could tell that the opponent was in a very bad condition, and it was dangerous to show off his strength and do difficult moves.
"ah……"
Just when Dwalin was about to say it was okay, his feet suddenly slipped. He screamed and fell toward the water.
At the critical moment of falling into the water, Dwalin moved his legs to grab the branches out of reflex. He hung upside down in the middle of the stream, and his head was less than a foot above the water.
"Oh...god..."
"careful……"
The dwarves shouted out their concerned words. Everything just happened too suddenly.
Dwalin, who was hanging upside down on the creek, could no longer hear the dwarf's voice at this moment. His eyes were staring straight at the water, and his body could not help but tremble, as if something terrible was happening in the water.
This caused his legs, which were holding the branches between themselves, to lose strength unconsciously.
"This is a curse...Gandalf said that there is a curse in the creek..."
"Who will save him..."
"This is too scary..."
The dwarves also noticed that something was wrong with Dvalin's state, and began to discuss it. The unknown is the scariest thing, and the dwarves did not dare to act rashly.
"Give me the bow...there must be something in there." Thorin said to the dwarf archer Kili.
Taking the bow and arrow, Thorin shot several arrows into the stream below Dwalin. The water showed no other reaction except ripples. And Dwalin did not get rid of his fear.
"Damn~"
Seeing that Dwalin could not hold on for long, he would soon fall into the stream that exuded an ominous atmosphere. Thorin cursed, took off his coat, and prepared to climb the branch himself to save people.
However, because he had absorbed too much harmful gas in the forest, Thorin's movements were quite slow. Abel estimated that if he had waited for the other party to go over to save people, Dvalin would have fallen into the water long ago.
Although he had some objections to Thorin, Abel still couldn't do anything without saving his life.
He walked toward the big tree in front of everyone's astonished eyes, and jumped onto the branch lightly. His advantage of height and long legs showed, and he reached the middle of the stream in a few steps.
Perhaps because he was wearing a gas mask, the creek had little impact on Abel.
The moment Dwalin fell, Abel grabbed his legs and then lifted the dwarf upside down.
He saw a look of fear on Dwalin's face, and his eyes rolled up except for the white ones.
"What's in the water?" Abel thought uncontrollably, and couldn't help but look toward the water.
He saw an "Abel" who looked exactly like him in the water, just like his own mirror image.
Not long after the two looked at each other, "Abel" in the water suddenly showed a strange smile, and then his face became ferocious, and the corners of his mouth grew wider and wider, until only a big mouth remained on his face.
"Ah~"
"Abel" with his mouth full of fangs in the water shouted and rushed towards Abel standing on the branch.
When the phantom passed through his body, Abel felt as if a breeze was blowing through him.
"Mr. Abel...are you okay?" Hei Li saw Abel standing motionless after rescuing Dwalin. He didn't answer no matter how he shouted, and he also climbed up the branch anxiously.
Abel woke up from the illusion, and his five senses slowly recovered. He saw that he was still standing where he was, and heard the anxious shouts of the big man.
"I'm fine, remember...don't look into the water." Abel warned the big man approaching him.
The laws of magic are indeed strange. In fact, Abel knew just now in the illusion that everything he saw was an illusion.
But knowing is one thing, and breaking free is another. He seemed to have experienced a nightmare.
As the master of this nightmare, Abel had tried to control the contents of the hallucination before, and he succeeded. The monster just now was formed based on the image of the venom in Abel's heart.
Moreover, this illusion is not clever and has quite a few loopholes.
Let’s just say that when Abel first appeared in the water, “he” was not wearing a gas mask. But Abel clearly knew that he was wearing a mask.
No longer paying too much attention to the stream at his feet, Abel carried the weak Dwalin, slowly walked to the end of the branch, and reached the other side of the stream with a slight jump.
As soon as his feet landed, Abel felt that most of the groggy feeling in his head had disappeared. He tried to take off the gas mask on his face and took a deep breath.
Although the air here also has a rotten sour smell, it is much better than the eye-stinging smell in the outermost part.
"What's wrong with me?" Dvalin also woke up at this moment. He touched his head and said in fear: "I just saw Orcs...many, many Orcs...accompanied by killing..."
"Don't worry, that's all fake. Everything is over." Abel comforted Dwalin. Judging from the other party's pale face, he might have been tortured by the orcs in his hallucinations before.
"Hoo~"
Hei Li also climbed over from the branch, probably because it was too stuffy to wear a gas mask. He saw Abel take off the mask, and also took off the mask on his own face. Then, he let out a strong breath.
.
"Abel~
Are you all okay?" Bilbo shouted loudly from across the stream.
"It's okay~
Come here too!" Abel replied to the hobbit, and then gave him some instructions: "When passing the creek, try not to take a big breath, and don't look into the water..."
The layer of water vapor floating in the sky above the creek should be the reason why Dvalin's movements became slow before. Looking at the water surface will pull people into an illusion. This is something Abel knows well.
Abel's voice was loud, and he also meant to remind the dwarf opposite him.
"Let's go~"
Thorin spoke to the dwarf and climbed up the branch first.
