Chapter 251: The Witch-king of Angmar and the Skin-changer Beorn

~9 min read 1,723 words

As the leader of the Nine Nazgul, the specific identity of the Witch-king of Angmar is unknown, and it is estimated that only the Dark Lord Sauron, who turned these humans into Nazgul, knows.

However, as powerful humans once corrupted by the Rings of Power, they were powerful warriors, wizards, and sorcerers among humans before they were corrupted. After obtaining the Rings of Power, they gained the power to come and go in the Wraith-world, and the ability to be invisible and immune to many physical damages made it difficult for ordinary people to deal with them.

They are the nine most powerful servants under the Dark Lord Sauron and are also nightmares in the hearts of many people in Middle-earth.

But the most terrifying thing about the Nazgul is that they cannot be truly killed. Even if you try your best to defeat them and destroy them, that is only temporary.

It won't be long before they make a comeback, and there is no loss, which can almost be called immortal. Only by defeating their master Sauron can these evil servants be killed.

It is precisely because of this that for thousands of years, countless lives have died at the hands of the Nine Nazgul. They have always been the great enemies of the forces of light in Middle-earth, and their existence is talked about with fear.

And the Witch-king of Angmar is the most powerful member of the Nine Nazgul. Some call him the Witch-king of the Nazgul.

The Kingdom of Angmar he once ruled even conquered more than half of the land of Middle-earth, and countless people of all races died at his hands. Although his invasion finally failed and his throne was overthrown by the heroes of that time, he still became the most widely known terrifying existence among the Nine Nazgul.

After several days of continuous travel, when Bolg rode a Warg and brought his subordinates to Dol Guldur, before entering this broken ancient city, he felt that the power of darkness was constantly expanding in this ancient city.

This power was extremely powerful, and even the weather in the sky was affected by it. Thick dark clouds covered the top of the ancient city and did not go up for a long time.

These dark powers might make other races feel physical discomfort, fear, and anger, and even make them weak, but for the Orc race, being able to live in a place with abundant dark power would only make them stronger and stronger, and the race would breed more and more prosperously.

Bolg took a deep breath, feeling that his anger because of his father's death was also slightly relieved in this place where darkness was breeding.

He brought his subordinates into the city and immediately felt that some power in the city was calling him, making him unable to help but feel submission and bow down.

Before he could react, a low, thick voice that made people feel fear involuntarily entered his ears.

"You seem to be Azog's son. What is your name? Why didn't Azog come here?"

With the appearance of the voice, a phantom wearing a black cloak, wearing an ancient metal crown on his face, and wearing a metal mask, unable to see his appearance, slowly appeared in a dark door.

Hearing this question that did not contain any emotion, Bolg felt a trace of anger in his heart. However, he did not choose to confront this powerful force, but lowered his head, not daring to look at the phantom of the powerful figure, and said respectfully:

"Lord Witch-king of Angmar, my name is Bolg. My father Azog has been killed by despicable Dwarves. The skull on my head comes from him."

"Not only that, even the Orc Town in the Misty Mountains suffered heavy losses. The Orc King there and the Orcs died more than half, and the Orc Town has become a ruin."

The voice in the darkness was silent for a few seconds, as if thinking about something, and then the voice continued:

"Tell me everything you know, say it carefully."

After more than ten minutes, after Bolg finished telling everything he knew, the voice of the Witch-king of Angmar became a bit solemn. Being able to capture a place guarded by thousands of Orcs in such a short time, it was clear that the other party's strength was also very powerful.

He pondered for a few seconds before continuing:

"That's enough, Bolg."

"From today on, you will command the Orc race in the North."

"The Orcs of Moria and the Misty Mountains will all be commanded by you."

"I will send someone to deal with the Lonely Mountain Dwarf team personally."

"Your task now is to go to the North to gather the army, forge armor, forge weapons, gather a powerful army, and wait for the master's call."

"Our great master is about to wake up, and our era is coming."

Bolg was overjoyed upon hearing this. With the appointment of the Witch-king of Angmar, although he might still need to fight to conquer other Orc clans, with the orthodox name, his journey of rule would undoubtedly reduce a lot of trouble.

"Obey, Lord Witch-king of Angmar, Bolg is waiting for your order at any time."

……………… And just when the Orc army in the North began to gather, and the Witch-king of Angmar also noticed this Lonely Mountain Dwarf team, Wayne and others, under the leadership of Gandalf, came to a huge wooden house located outside the Mirkwood.

Wayne and others carefully observed this huge wooden house and found that this place was like a place where a giant creature lived, and many items were several sizes larger than ordinary objects, but the things equipped around were very complete.

Not only were there wells, farmland, fences, and neat roads, but many fruits and vegetables were also planted, which was clearly a place where someone lived for a long time.

Thorin, whose spirit had improved a lot, couldn't help but ask Gandalf after seeing the environment here: "What is this place? Is the person living here your acquaintance, Gandalf?"

Gandalf, upon hearing this, took a puff of his pipe and said somewhat vaguely: "Ah, yes, this is the residence of an old friend of mine. Perhaps we can stay here tonight."

And just when Thorin wanted to ask something else, Bilbo, who had sharper eyes, suddenly pointed in a direction to their north and shouted with some fear:

"Bear, such a big bear, it is rushing toward us."

Everyone, upon hearing this, also looked in the direction Bilbo pointed. They saw a giant brown bear with a body length of six or seven meters, brown hair all over its body, very strong limbs, and a height of four or five meters when lying on the ground, opening its mouth and rushing toward them like a small mountain running.

Its body shape was five or six times that of an ordinary brown bear. Even if you just looked at its appearance, you could imagine the power and strength of this bear.

No one had ever seen such a huge giant bear, and subconsciously wanted to run away. Gandalf even shouted directly:

"Run to the house first, hide there, this bear should not be able to enter the house."

Others, upon hearing this, wanted to do the same, and were in a hurry to turn their horses around, causing a mess. Wayne suddenly said:

"Why are you running? It's just a giant bear, what's there to be afraid of?"

After speaking, he blew a whistle, and then asked Gandalf meaningfully: "Gandalf, is this giant bear a friend or an enemy? Do I need to kill him?"

Before Gandalf could answer, the Deathclaw Robin, hearing his master's whistle, immediately let out an excited roar.

Without any hesitation, he rushed toward the giant bear at an extremely fast speed.

If the giant bear, which was five or six times larger than an ordinary brown bear, was a giant beast that made people terrified, then the Deathclaw Robin rushing toward it was like a Tyrannosaurus Rex that had dominated since the dinosaur era.

Whether it was appearance or body shape, the Deathclaw was steadily stronger than the giant bear.

Gandalf and others who had witnessed the Deathclaw's battle knew even more clearly how amazing the defensive power and strength of this giant beast were. It seemed that the giant bear, which looked extremely terrifying just now, was suddenly not much. The Dwarves immediately gave up running and began to turn their heads one after another, looking at the direction where the two giant beasts were about to collide with the attitude of watching a play.

And Gandalf also thought of the Deathclaw's terror, his expression immediately became anxious, and he shouted at Wayne:

"Don't let Robin hurt him, Wayne, this bear is not a bad person."

In fact, Wayne had known this for a long time, and the order he gave to Robin was also the same.

The running speed of the two giant beasts was very fast, and in almost the blink of an eye, they collided together.

Just as everyone expected, although the giant bear looked very terrifying, it was completely incomparable to the Deathclaw. The bodies of the two giant beasts collided together, and the giant bear was instantly knocked to the ground, then pressed to the ground by the strong Deathclaw, its strong hind limbs directly stepped on his chest, and its bloody mouth full of countless sharp teeth bit his neck virtually in an instant.

Those sharp teeth and the bloody breath immediately made this giant bear regain its sanity, struggling desperately while being pressed to the ground.

And Gandalf soon rode his horse to the giant bear's side and shouted loudly: "Beorn, change back to human form quickly, we are not enemies, we will not hurt you."

The Deathclaw's strength was really too great. Even if this giant bear was also known for its strength, facing the Deathclaw, which was even larger than him, he couldn't break free no matter how he struggled.

Finally, after dozens of seconds, this giant bear began to shrink slowly, turning into a naked giant wearing only shorts.
