From Hogwarts to Strixhaven

Chapter 257: Escape (300010000)

"The wizard saw it! He knows that I rely on a ring to gain the ability of invisibility..." Bilbo, who put on the Supreme Ring again, thought, "Fortunately, after I put on the ring, the wizard can't see through the invisibility..."

Ivy held the reins of Golden Horn, followed by the invisible Bilbo, and continued to move forward along the tunnel pointed out by Gollum.

The tunnel began to become shorter and shorter. Even if the orcs wanted to enter and exit, they had to squat down, so Ivy added the shrinking spell to herself and Golden Horn, reducing the size of one person and one unicorn to half of the original size, and the weight was only one eighth of the original. Ivy's height is now less than one meter, a little shorter than Master Baggins.

If Gandalf and the others also left from this road, those dwarves would be fine, but the tall old wizard would definitely have to crawl to pass.

The dark tunnel went up, down, and turned again. I really don't know how these orcs determined the digging direction, or these chaotic guys just dug randomly based on their feelings and dug wherever they dug?

Ivy felt it was very likely, otherwise the fork in the road would not have connected so many tunnels.

After passing another bend, Ivy finally saw a different light in the darkness. It was not the cold light emitted from the beast bite sword, nor the fire ignited by the orcs in the cave, but the bright white sky light.

The exit is not far away.

Ivy and Bilbo said in their hearts.

"Mr. Baggins?" Ivy spoke, looking like he was talking to himself, but he knew that Bilbo was following him. This tunnel was not difficult for the Hobbits. Even without the help of magic, Bilbo could pass through it smoothly.

"The exit is in front. We are likely to encounter enemies. If the space in front is large enough, please sit on the back of the Golden Horn. Its current height is not a problem for you."

"I'm sitting, wizard!" Ivy saw that the saddle of the Golden Horn had undergone some minor changes, and Bilbo's voice also came from the back of the Golden Horn.

The clever unicorn looked back at his back in confusion, trying to find out what was sitting on his back. It wasn't Ivy, nor the beautiful elf girl, nor the female student in Hogwarts.

The hooves of the golden horn were digging on the ground, looking a little uneasy.

"Good boy, we will see the sun soon." Ivy comforted the golden horn and turned the last corner with its reins, "but we still have one last battle to fight."

This was a very open dark space. The only light came from the stone door guarded by the orcs. There was a gap on the door, and a headless orc corpse was stuck in the door.

That must be the masterpiece of Gandalf's sword. Among the weapons held by the expedition team, only Gandalf's sword and Ivy's beast bite sword could make such a clean cut.

The orcs guarding the gate were trying to get the body stuck in the door out so that they could close the door again. There was also a team of orcs who looked well-equipped and not attacked to help them.

With one move, Ivy removed the shrinking magic on himself and Jinjiao, and charged at the orcs in front of the gate.

The orcs were already confused by seeing Ivy grow from small to big, and now seeing the beast-biting sword in Ivy's hand, the orcs roared in anger, crossed the various obstacles in the hallway, and surrounded Ivy.

The orc captain with a scimitar rushed to the front. His equipment was better than every orc Ivy had seen in the dungeon, because he actually wore pants! Instead of covering his lower body with a piece of rag.

In addition to the scimitar in his left hand, the orc captain also held a round shield in his right hand. There were many iron pieces inserted on the shield. If it hit the body, it would have many holes.

Ivy did not rashly chop the shield with the beast-biting sword, but first extended his staff. Now that he had acquired the ability to cast spells as a supplement, he was no longer stingy with the remaining spell slots of the Scribes.

He started with the classic thunder wave. Even if these orcs withstood the impact, they would definitely not be as motionless as the orc king in the dungeon. As long as there was a flaw, it would be Ivy's chance.

Sure enough, after the thunder exploded, the shield in the orc captain's hand disappeared. The orcs who closed their eyes for a short time because of the strong light didn't know where the shield went, but Ivy could see it clearly.

The already crudely made shield was shattered under the impact of the thunder wave, and the iron pieces on it flew everywhere, not only scratching several orc warriors following behind him, but even one unlucky guy was stabbed in the eye by the sharp iron piece.

While the orcs were still unstable, Ivy's beast-biting sword had arrived. Under the sharpness of the beast-biting sword, the armor on the orc captain was no better than a piece of paper, and Ivy cut off his entire arm with one sword.

Then he blocked the axe of the orc on the right with his backhand, and used [Five-foot Quick Step] to flash into the middle of the orc team.

Of course, the orcs would not let Ivy, who was in such a dangerous place, go, and they all raised their weapons to chop at him. However, the swordsman's superb swordsmanship was definitely not something these orcs who knew nothing but slashing could touch.

But in a flash, Ivy completed four parries and counterattacks, and the heads of these orcs were separated from their bodies.

Ivy's superb swordsmanship allowed him to fight against many enemies at once. This was the confidence brought to him by the Sword Saint's professional ability [Smart Defense]. When the enemy's attack failed to hit, [Backhand Strike] gave Ivy the opportunity to attack. The combination of expertise and professional ability showed its power at this moment, allowing Ivy to easily crush the orcs.

The elite orc warrior squad was like waves hitting the reef, unable to take away anything. Except for staining Ivy's robe with foul-smelling blood, their attack was fruitless.

The orcs guarding the door were not only the squad that launched the charge, but also two other squads that were not fully staffed and everyone was injured standing next to the gate. They thought that a well-equipped six-man squad was enough to deal with a lone opponent like Ivy, but who knew that these six orcs were annihilated before Ivy could even make it through one round.

"Wizard! It's a wizard!" The orcs at the door could not hide their fear. They didn't care about getting their companions' bodies out of the door, but tried desperately to get through the gap of the door. Even the bright sunlight outside could not stop their determination.

As the creation of the dark enemy Morgoth, the orcs are naturally afraid of the sun. Only a very small number of orcs are willing to fight in the sun, and most of them are concentrated in the orc fortress of Gundabad Mountain, led by the pale orc Azog.

And these orcs living underground in the Misty Mountains are not like their relatives. They choose to go to the sun to avoid Ivy, which can reflect the fear of these orcs.

No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one bar!

No matter how scared these orcs are, Ivy will never show mercy. He raised the ebony staff in his hand high and recited the difficult spell. In just one or two seconds, the wooden dragon head sprayed out a crimson magic projectile.

The crimson ball of light was only the size of a pea when it left the staff, but it grew larger and larger during the flight.

The mysterious energy structure inside the ball of light became clearer and clearer, and the target Orc had only one thought in his mind - he was going to be hit.

A muffled sound came, and the Orcs who were huddled in front of the huge stone door were dead, and even the huge stone door that looked extremely heavy was completely scrapped, splashing many heavy fragments out of the door.

The two Orcs who squeezed through the stone door first thought they had escaped, but they were unexpectedly targeted by the stone fragments from behind. Their end was particularly miserable. The broken sacks used to hold construction waste might be a little better than them, but compared with their companions who were dead inside the stone door, at least they still had the right to be exposed in the wilderness.

This was Ivy's force field fireball spell. He didn't want to push the door open by himself after killing the orcs. Moreover, with his little strength, it would take a long time to push the door open.

Therefore, using the force field fireball spell that can cause real damage to the building is Ivy's only choice. Sure enough, this fireball spell caused a critical hit on the stone door, and Ivy's last three-ring spell slot of the Scribe Society Mage was also used up.

"Hu——" Ivy breathed a sigh of relief, cleaned his robe with the wizard's spell "Clean Up", and then said to Bilbo on the Golden Horn saddle, "Okay, Mr. Baggins, you can show your figure, we are going to find where Gandalf and the others are now."

As soon as Ivy finished speaking, Bilbo appeared from the Golden Horn's back, which scared the Golden Horn who had been paying attention to the movement on his back, and immediately landed on his two hind hooves, trying to throw Bilbo off.

Ivy quickly held the reins, patted Golden Horn's neck gently, and comforted him: "Let Mr. Baggins sit for a while, okay? When we find others, he will go down."

"No, no! Wizard! I'd better get down and walk! Hobbits have long been accustomed to walking barefoot on the ground!" Bilbo has jumped off the horse, "I must write down this story in full, the wizard and his golden horse!"

"It seems that you have begun to enjoy this adventure, Mr. Baggins?" Ivy no longer forced Golden Horn, but held the reins and walked on the ground with Bilbo.

"Yes! It started when I got the magic ring!" Bilbo's face was very emotional, as if they were not in the orcs' cave, but on a spring outing.

Wow! Give me strength and comments!
