Let’s unite

In the jungle behind the Hearth Keep, a chase was still going on.

Although the dwarves abandoned Furnace and retreated into the mines, the orcs remained unyielding.

The two sides fought all the way until they came out of the cave at dawn.

Several crisp knocking sounds sounded like iron. After Thoradin repelled several orc masters who came forward, he did not retreat immediately to distance himself, but stood there breathing heavily.

Even he was tired after a night of fighting.

In order to cover the escape of the tribe, Thoradin had been walking at the end. Facing the orcs taking turns to fight, it was still a bit overwhelming.

The orc masters stared at this sturdy short man from a distance, and were surprised. They didn't expect this dwarf to be so good at fighting.

According to the order issued by Deimos, since the orcs could only follow up with limited troops, their main purpose was to entangle the dwarf elder.

Thoradin was afraid that the orcs would hunt down his people, but he didn't know that this was playing into the orcs' hands, and their target was him.

As long as you keep him, even if all the other dwarves escape, you will still make a lot of money!

The sweat on the top of Thoradin's head met the cold morning air in the mountains and bursts of white mist. He tightened the warhammer in his hand and prepared to retreat.

The large army of dwarves has already separated for some distance, and even if the orcs choose to pursue it, they cannot catch up.

As long as you leave now, the dwarf will repay you twice as much for today's hatred!

A life span of hundreds of years allows dwarves to always remember long-standing grievances. For humans, it may be the past of ancestors or even great-grandparents, but for dwarves, it is a matter of half a lifetime.

Just as he was about to remember the appearance of the orc in front of him, Thoradin suddenly spotted the figure he hated the most - Deimos!

After finishing the battle in Hearth Keep, Dimos was guided by the orc soldiers watching the intersection along the way in the mine, and it only took a short time to catch up.

"Dwarf, I will send you to reunite with your brother. I think he needs your company very much."

Deimos took out the dagger and attacked.

"Ding" "Ding" "Dong"

There was a collision sound, and the two of them quickly fought together. After a night's rest, Deimos was in excellent condition. Thoradin was exhausted, and his movements were obviously slow for a beat. After a few rounds, Deimos found an opportunity and slashed with his sword.

The arm armor was broken, causing a wound.

Not long after, Thoradin was overwhelmed, unable to parry. After blocking the attack with a hammer, he was unable to withstand the attack, and the door suddenly opened wide in front of him.

Coming!

Dimos was highly concentrated, seizing opportunities in an instant, making deals, etc., and pushed the dagger towards Thoradin's chest.

Thoradin would definitely die if this knife entered. But at this moment, Timos suddenly sounded the alarm, and his original attack movement was forcefully deflected, and his body twisted.

With a "swish" sound, a nearly invisible shadow flew between the two people and submerged into the ground, leaving only half of its tail feathers trembling outside.

After Deimos pulled away, he broke out in a few drops of cold sweat. He looked up and saw a centaur drawing his bowstring again on the hillside.

"Swish, swish, swish", several more arrows were shot, and Dimos dodged to avoid it, but several orc subordinates fell down clutching their chests.

"Retreat!" Timos ordered decisively and retreated quickly. The orcs around him followed suit and entered the mine in a blink of an eye.

After a few arrows, Dimos felt that the centaur's shooting skills were superb. It would be impossible to keep Thoradin alive today with one against two.

If something cannot be done, you should make a prompt decision to avoid unnecessary casualties.

The orcs disappeared, and Thoradin was discouraged and sat down on the ground.

"Thoradin!"

The one who took action was, of course, archery master Zerma. He had learned since last night that Furnace Castle had been attacked. Unfortunately, it fell too quickly. He didn't know it was over until the centaurs arrived.

Therefore, he could only come to the back mountain and try to respond. He didn't know exactly where Thoradin would come out. It wasn't until a large number of dwarves escaped that he learned that Thoradin was coming in a hurry.

"Fortunately, it's not too late!" Lao Ma couldn't help but sigh when she saw the dwarf elder who used to be so energetic in such a miserable state.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered the words of the dragonborn when they were discussing countermeasures at the banquet in Hearth Keep.

"Maybe we really think of each other too well..." Lao Ma sighed.

It is impossible to achieve real peace by giving in, but will only make the enemy worse.

But no matter what, we must first get over the current hurdle.

"Leave here first. Now is not a good time to counterattack. There may be an ambush in the mine."

Thoradin knew that Dimos was a very insidious orc scumbag, and he was probably waiting in the mines for them to send him there.

While evacuating, Thoradin told the general story of what happened in Furnace Keep.

"Oh, I feel very sorry, but you must get out as soon as possible, the journey is still going on." Lao Ma felt sad about Thorin's death.

To be honest, the fire-forged dwarves have always taken good care of the centaurs.

Nodding, Thoradin could say no more.

He needs to bear all this by himself, whether it is the death of his brother or everything in Firecastle.

After a while, they came to a mountain col.

The escaped dwarves and the centaur warriors who came to rescue are all here.

"I don't know what's going on with Osfil."

Seeing the miserable situation of the dwarves, Lao Ma couldn't help but sweat for Theos. After all, they were serious about going against the orcs.

"I believe they will win." Thoradin said with a wry smile, "At least they won't lose as miserably as we did."

In the dull atmosphere, the sun gradually turned westward, and the mountain col suddenly fell into shadow.

Everyone was very vigilant and stepped up their guard. Many dwarves did not even dare to close their eyes and just wanted to wait until dawn.

"Who!?" There was a strange noise outside the camp, and the vigilant centaur warriors immediately raised their bows.

"Lao Ma! The dwarf elder!"

A familiar voice came, and Nohildao's figure appeared in the firelight. After getting the news, she rushed all the way without stopping.

Soon, the tieflings learned the specific situation here.

Thoradin and Lao Ma learned of the news of Osfer's victory.

"It's actually a golden dragon!"

Lao Ma and Thoradin were very surprised when they heard that Theos was showing great power on the battlefield. It took them a while to accept this reality.

The owner of Osfir was actually two giant dragons, and the lord among them was a golden dragon. For a while, the news that Osfir defeated the orcs had no impact.

After all, it is a golden dragon!

"Perhaps, we need to think carefully about the future." Nohill said.

This time, the orc attack taught these self-righteous races a bloody lesson.

Of course, there were factors such as orcs and other moles involved in this failure, but this is obviously not an excuse.

She now fully agrees with Theos's philosophy, especially after learning about Thorin's death.

——She doesn’t want to experience the same pain as Thoradin one day!

But it is obvious that the tiefling family alone cannot do this.

"We need to unite." Nohir glanced at the eyes of the centaur chief and the dwarf elder.

"True union."

This period of war is almost over. Some side plots such as the previously mentioned story of tree demons and other races fighting against orcs are omitted. They are dispensable, so they are omitted. Many of the previous plots were delayed, so we have to hurry up and catch up now.

End the first paragraph!
