Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth

The elven army also quickly advanced through the opening.

After breaking through the spider web's barrier, the elf army officially faced a team of thousands of giant spiders.

The giant spider takes advantage of the high altitude, constantly spraying spider silk or attacking with its stinger.

Legolas, Elrohir, Elladan, and Arwen reacted quickly, waving their wands and attacking continuously.

Arwen was like a nimble little deer, her body light and agile, as if there was no gravity. Her footsteps were as fast as afterimages as she jumped from the straight trunk to the tree, leaping and moving on the tree, holding a magic wand in one hand and a dagger in the other, dealing with many giant spiders.

She was no longer the pampered Princess of Duskstar in Lórien and Rivendell, but an elven warrior, agile and sharp, with quick reactions, able to avoid the spider silk and poisonous stings in time every time.

It can even stay in the air for a short time, twist its body, and kick the giant spider that is rushing towards it off the tree.

Dui, who was standing behind, looked at the figure in amazement.

If the impression Arwen had given him before was that of beauty, nobility and elegance, she perfectly embodied the image of an elf princess.

What she displayed at this moment was another kind of powerful beauty, with decisiveness, fearlessness and determination, like a goddess with both strength and beauty.

Even Thranduil looked at Arwen with admiration, feeling a little pity that she and Legolas did not like each other. Otherwise, if he had such a daughter-in-law, he would definitely support her with both hands.

At the same time, the three male elves Legolas, Elrohir, and Elladan were no less impressive.

With super physical fitness and reaction speed, coupled with the assistance of magic spells.

Countless giant spiders fell from the sky like rain.

Other elf warriors also used bows and arrows and other weapons to join forces to fight the giant spider.

Soon, thousands of giant spiders began to lose strength and were defeated by the elves. They began to flee south in panic.

The elf warriors did not miss the opportunity to pursue and quickly chased after the giant spider, leaving behind corpses of giant spiders along the way.

Then the corpses of these giant spiders were continuously delivered to Dui by the elves in charge of logistics.

Dui naturally accepted everyone who came and was very happy.

The giant spider venom he has collected now is enough for several barrels, which is enough to make many potions.

The giant spider's corpse has even filled an entire space bag.

But even so, Dui never thought it was too much.

After all, there are not many such opportunities. Once Sauron and the dark forces are defeated, these dark creatures will probably become fewer and fewer, so he needs to reserve more.

Moreover, the basilisk has a big appetite. As the basilisk grows older and longer, these giant spiders cannot keep it fed for long.

The elf army pursued the giant spider, crossing the old road in the dense forest and chasing it south.

But the further south they went, the more difficulties the elven army encountered.

The surrounding woods and air have been polluted by giant spiders. The trees have become hideous and strange, as if they were sick. The soil and leaves have become rotten and smelly. The river water has a hypnotic and drowsy magic, and even the air is filled with hallucinogenic poisonous gas.

In such an environment, the elves have a hard time moving forward. Not only do they have to be careful of their surroundings, but they also have to work hard to overcome the hallucinations and drowsiness caused by the poison gas, and they have to be vigilant against attacks from giant spiders hiding in the dark.

However, the elven army was not unprepared. The elven warriors took out the prepared scarves and wrapped their mouths and noses.

These scarves are soaked in a potion made by the elven doctors, which can relieve the poison in the air.

Dui also got a silk scarf, which gave off a plant fragrance that made people’s minds clear.

But it only relieves the poison, not cures it, so Dui simply cast a head-bubbling spell on himself.

Then he took out his staff and poured the surging magic power in his body into the staff while chanting the spell.

The emerald on the top of the staff released a dazzling light, and then like a bubble machine, it continuously gushed out countless colorful bubbles. The bubbles floated around and wrapped around the head of each elf.

Every elf felt a little uncomfortable at first, but soon discovered that under the cover of the bubble, the poisonous gas was blocked and filtered outside, and all they could smell was fresh air.

Thranduil was delighted to see that the elven warriors could breathe freely. He just looked at the bubbles floating towards him and pushed them towards the head of the elk under him without leaving a trace, letting the bubbles cover the mount's head.

Then he expressed his gratitude to Dui: "Dui, you have helped us a lot again!"

Dui shook his head, but when he saw that Thranduil had no bubble covering his head, he quickly asked, "Your Majesty Thranduil, where is your bubble? Do you need me to add one for you?"

Thranduil shook his head: "No, these poisonous gases can't do anything to me."

He didn't want to have a head full of bubbles, it was so ungraceful.

Chapter 150 The Basilisk Appears

With Dui's bubble head spell, the poisonous gas in the surrounding air could no longer affect the elven warriors.

The elven army no longer had any scruples and once again demonstrated its powerful fighting capacity, advancing rapidly southward and killing all the giant spiders that blocked the way.

The rest all fled south in panic.

The army marched straight ahead and soon recaptured half of the Mirkwood.

But soon, everyone discovered something was wrong.

Because there was no giant spider in front of him, not even one in its nest.

It seems that the giant spiders have given up on this place.

The situation remained the same as we advanced southward for dozens of miles.

In the spider's nest, in addition to some uneaten animal corpses, there are even spider eggs that have not yet hatched.

It looked like he had just escaped after hearing the news.

But the crowd did not look happy, instead their expressions became solemn and serious.

Giant spiders are very cunning. The only possibility is that they are all gone from their nest so unusually.

There must be a lot of giant spiders gathered together, and the next battle is bound to be a difficult one.

Dui stopped the elves from destroying the spider eggs and collected the spider eggs that looked like black pearls.

Some are frozen as potion ingredients, and some are kept for hatching as a source of future potions and as a reserve of food for the basilisk Herpo.

Just as the army continued to march south with vigilance and alertness.

There was a sudden noise in the forest.

The elf warriors vigilantly drew their bows and shot arrows, but they were quickly blocked by the oncoming attackers.

I saw a wooden sled pulled by a big rabbit rushing over from a distance, and then it stopped abruptly in front of the elf team.

"Darigast! Why are you here?" Dui came forward and greeted in surprise.

The visitor was the brown-robed wizard Darrigast. He looked a little crazy, and his eyes lit up when he saw Dui.

"Ah, it's you, Doyle! What are you doing here?"

"His Majesty Thranduil is exterminating the giant spiders in the forest, so I came here to help." Dui explained, then asked, "But why are you here, Daregast? Did something happen?"

"Me? Oh, yeah, I almost forgot!" Daregast was startled, patted his head, and then said immediately, as if he remembered something, "I'm here to warn you! I'm here to ask the elves for a warning!"

"What warning do you want to give us?" Thranduil asked with a frown.

As neighbors living in the Mirkwood, Thranduil naturally knew the Brown-robed Wizard.

There just isn't much overlap between them.

Seeing Thranduil, Daregast seemed to have found his target and immediately said, "All the spiders are gathering to the south! There are thousands and thousands of them, densely packed together. All the animals in the forest are scared, and I am scared too!"

"Those brood of Ungoliant are preparing to attack now. Led by the Spider Queen, they are ready to wipe out all the elves in one fell swoop. You must be prepared..."

"Wait, what Spider Queen are you talking about?" Thranduil asked, seizing the key point.

"Spider Queen? Oh yes, the Spider Queen! Her name is Senasa, and she is the largest giant spider in the entire forest! She is also the leader of all giant spiders!" Darrigast answered somewhat incoherently.

When he spoke of the Spider Queen, his expression became particularly excited, and he said with some fear, "She's even bigger than my little house! And she's a minion of the Dark Lord! Now she's gathering all the spiders to attack you!"

Thranduil's expression grew serious when he heard Daregast's words.

And Dui was also very surprised.

I didn't expect that there was such a thing as the Spider Queen in the Mirkwood, and that she was related to Sauron.

Upon hearing that the giant spiders were gathering, Thranduil did not hesitate and led his army south, vowing to drive all the spiders out of Mirkwood.

The brown-robed wizard Daregast also joined in.

With Darrigast's leadership, everyone did not stop and headed straight towards the Spider Queen's lair.

The Spider Queen's lair lies at the southern end of Mirkwood, not far from Dol Guldur.

The trees here are taller and deeper, and the sky is blocked by countless layers of spider webs and leaves. Not even a ray of light can get in, and it is so dark that the ground cannot be seen clearly.

Moreover, because the giant spiders have been living and breeding here for thousands of years, the entire dense forest is covered with countless spider webs, and there are only spider web tunnels specially for the giant spiders to walk through, forming an extremely huge spider kingdom.

Other creatures have a hard time here and may even become food for giant spiders.

When Dui and other elf troops arrived in the valley, they saw the endless "Spider Castle" in front of them.

Such a spider kingdom can no longer be achieved through pure destruction.

Seeing the spider web's iron wall, Thranduil frowned and looked serious.

If we don't seize the opportunity to catch all the giant spiders in one go, this encirclement and suppression campaign will be a failure.

Once the giant spiders reproduce again, they will sooner or later spread to the north of the forest, squeezing the elves' living space and threatening the safety of the forest kingdom.

But if they really want to attack, the countless spider webs in front of them will be a huge obstacle, and it will be even more difficult to destroy them.

"Father, let me lead the team through those spider tunnels and force them out." Legolas asked with a firm look.

Thranduil shook his head and rejected it: "No, there are countless giant spiders in there, not to mention the Spider Queen. Going in is like walking into a trap!"

"But if we allow these giant spiders to continue to exist, Mirkwood will never be at peace. It won't be long before they multiply again and move north, threatening us!" Legolas said worriedly.

"Besides, I still have the magic taught by the Duyle religion, so I can protect myself even if I enter."

But no matter how Legolas persuaded, Thranduil was not going to let Legolas take the risk.

Watching Thranduil and Legolas arguing.

Dui said, "Your Majesty Thranduil, since we can't break the spider web, can we use fire?"

Hearing Dui's words, Thranduil and Legolas looked at him in surprise.

Thranduil shook his head. "I've considered your suggestion, but if we set a fire, the entire forest will be affected if we're not careful. Not only will the creatures in the forest suffer, but we'll also be left homeless!"

"But you can let your army open a firebreak in the forest and then set fire to the forest in the south. Then you don't have to worry about the fire spreading to the north," Dui said.
