The sun rises in the east, and a new day begins. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I don't know where a war broke out, Ling Qi always felt that today's morning sun was particularly red, but there was not much warmth on people.
Following the path pointed out by the Will of the Forest, Ling Qi led a large group of subordinates in the direction of the Lonely Mountain.
He learns about recent events from the whispers of the guards, but as one of the protagonists of the incident, he feels inexplicably bizarre.
The dwarf Thorin was rescued by someone and then made a big fuss in the elven kingdom.
Alex and Charles led a raid from the rear of the fortress, inflicting heavy damage on the defenders of the Elven Kingdom.
Elendil was powerful, revealing a hideous face, and he actually suppressed the two masters of reincarnation with one enemy and two!
Leo suddenly attacked and injured Alex, but was also severely injured by the opponent's counterattack.
Alex erupts and fights off Elendil, who worries about his young son, revealing his non-human side.
Then Charles took the dying Alex, the wounded Thorin and the five surviving dwarves to fight their way out of the siege!
Legolas, the elven prince, had already stopped everyone, but he didn't like the brothers' sneak attack, and for some unknown reasons, he actually let these enemies go privately!
Everyone was on the run, and suddenly they were surrounded by a group of demon spiders, and Charles cast a dragon roar to deter the demon spiders.
Ling Qi descended from the sky with two escort leaders, defeated the Charles, killed three diehards, and successfully regained his authority.
He then wounded Thorin and snatched his key, only to be trapped by Charles in a way he had never seen before.
Charles, Alex, Thorin, and three other dwarves escaped, and two more were so badly wounded that they died!
These were all discussed by the guards in private, and Ling Qi summed them up and came to a set of fairly logical conclusions.
Although the process is tortuous enough, it is also like his style. Once shot, the six relatives did not recognize it. It's just that "he" can't help but be a little impatient, and he hastily makes enemies but doesn't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, I don't know why!
If he wasn't sure, how could he have turned against his two teammates, in order to regain power, or to dissociate himself from them...
If nothing had happened...
Ling Qi took out a silver metal key from his bosom, he remembered it!
"Standing beside the greystone while the thrush is beating, the afterglow of the setting sun of Turin will shine on the keyhole. ”
Ling Qi whispered, in a language that others couldn't understand at all, he knew what he had to do!
No matter how unexpected the change in the situation was, it wasn't the worst case after all, at least he was still a friend of the elves, and the situation was in his hands!
Perhaps, it was because of Alex and Charles's "perverse" that "he" at that time hastily decided to do so. Aside from injuring Thorin to snatch the key, which is not pretty, there is nothing wrong with other things, including flipping the face with his teammates.
At least from the tone of the guards, it is not difficult to hear that Alex and Charles are regarded by them as traitors to the land of honey, adulterers and adulteresses, and Ling Qi, who is in opposition to them, has naturally become orthodox, and he already has a righteous reputation!
The last thing Alex should have done was to expose his non-human identity during the battle with Thranduil! This immediately made the two "embarrassed" become the target of public criticism, and Ling Qi's behavior was like a righteous murder. Otherwise, most of the guards trained by Charles might not be willing to follow him.
Correspondingly, it is also a good thing that the clone and the pet cannot be contacted, because no one can find the evil tail in him.
Putting aside the Ice Ring Spirit clone, now he, even if he stands on the judgment seat of the Holy White Council, he dares to hold his head high!
The process of leaving the dark forest was smooth, they didn't encounter any demon spiders or elves, the former had become his slaves, and the latter was probably really badly damaged, and they didn't have any reason to embarrass Ling Qi, who had already "drawn a line" with the Charles!
"Could it be, what kind of ploy is this? Some kind of ploy that 'I' have set?"
Ling Qi pondered, still unable to recall any details.
He believes that his current strength is definitely not enough to slay the dragon head-on, and the missing clone makes up for the biggest flaw in his identity and has become a new weakness.
But if it's just going to the dragon's lair to steal something, or to save your life under the dragon's kiss, it shouldn't be difficult.
Calculating all sorts of means, risking the truth at the risk of revealing the truth, he is no worse than any top hero now, second only to Legend!
And this is a power that belongs completely to him and will not be easily targeted!
From not even being a hero, to becoming a top hero now, it only took him half a year. Even with the help of external forces, it is a miracle, and this is not uncommon in his life.
Maybe his strength is never accidental, something invisible, maybe fate, or something else, is pushing him step by step on that unknown path.
He didn't care, and if he had enough strength, he couldn't even do without an answer.
As long as his strength is strong enough, he will dare to kill Gushan now and end the task!
As for clones, or optional quests, or even followers and pets, he won't care!
Especially the damn optional quests, the One Ring has obviously been started, but no new quest hints have appeared at all. Now, it's ten times more difficult to retrieve it than before, and fortunately, it doesn't hurt.
Rather than waiting for someone to give you a reward, it's better to keep improving yourself.
The masters of the reincarnation world, none of the masters that Ling Qi has seen so far are strong by relying on the charity of the master or other existences, they have all found a path that suits them and walked forward without hesitation!
Only your own power is real, and there is no need to hesitate to be powerful!
Lonely Mountain, the largest nest of the dwarves, is now the Longtan Tiger's Den.
Since the lonely mountain was taken away by Smaug, and the city of Changhu under the mountain was burned to the ground for assisting the dwarves in attacking the dragon, the surrounding area of the mountain is now red for hundreds of miles.
The survivors of Long Lake City have established a new town on the edge of the lake, which is now Long Lake Town, not far from the Lonely Mountain.
It is difficult to say whether the town was built by the lake, or whether the fear of fire still lingers in people's hearts.
In the past, Changhu City was prosperous and stable, and everyone lived a prosperous life, but now Changhu Town is like a slum.
Bud, the descendant of the old Changhu City Lord, also became a fisherman and a ferryman, which was a punishment for the incompetence of his ancestors.
In the past, the city of Changhu was empty of dragon-slaying weapons, but the city lord failed to hit the target with three arrows, but he decided to help the dwarves defend against the evil dragons.
In the blink of an eye, history has proven that it was an absolutely fatal mistake.
The newly appointed mayor is a stupid pig with a vegetarian diet, similar to the previous ones, relying on wealth and power to rise to power.
Not to mention that the people here live in dire straits, but there is absolutely no happiness at all.
Even so, it's better than being homeless, isn't it?
The only thing that aroused Ling Qi's interest in Changhu Town was the giant crossbow that was said to be able to slay dragons, of course, it was only an interest, not a greed, and history proved that it was a joke like the city lord.
If the machines made by the dwarves can really slay dragons, how can the most powerful dwarves be easily driven out of their lair by the fire dragons?
It is the science fiction world that can create miracles by external forces, not this magical plane.
The kind of props in the story that allow ordinary people to immediately change their lives against the sky and kill heroes after getting them are like mowing grass, really only exist in the story.
A legend is a legend, and everything about them is a legend, including the experience of growing up, but also the defense.
The only weapons that can tear through the powerful defense capabilities of the legendary species are generally the legendary weapons, and even if the legendary weapons fall into the hands of ordinary people, it is impossible for them to directly defy the sky.
Ordinary people take a legendary weapon and put it in Middle-earth, maybe they can cause damage to legendary species, if they are lucky enough, but they will definitely not be able to inflict fatal damage!
Legendary species are often more terrifying than humans who have reached the legendary realm, especially in Middle-earth, because of physical problems.
In all fairness, the peculiarities of Middle-earth do make it possible for ordinary people to kill heroes or even legends, but this possibility is basically negligible, especially in the latter case.
Ordinary people are too weak, and it is not only the body and soul that are fragile, but also the mind.
Nine out of ten people living in Changhu Town are ordinary people, including the local aristocracy.
The weakness of ordinary people is always so obvious, so Ling Qi only used a small bag of gold coins to buy off the clerk of Changhu Town, a certain obscene guy.
He had easy access to a dwarven siege crossbow that was said to be so miraculous by the locals that even dragons could shoot it.
The obscene guy who didn't even remember his name even went so far as to say that if the honored guests could add a little more to the price, he could take the giant crossbow apart and sell it to them.
Ling Qi touched the giant crossbow, determined that this large fine-grade ordnance would never be fatal to a legendary creature, and politely rejected someone's suggestion.
If this battering crossbow was a little more elaborate, or if he had enough storage space, maybe he would consider buying it.
Then, as the lord of the land of honey, he officially met with the mayor of Changhu Town.
The reputation of the land of honey wine has become lighter than the sea breeze here, and from the blank eyes of the mayor of Changhu Town, who is worth three ordinary people, Ling Qi is sure that this guy who keeps saying "long and long" does not know where the land of honey wine is.
Fortunately, with the words of the greedy villain, as well as a bucket of treasures from ancient times, the mayor's attitude towards Ling Qi and his party was more polite than after he really heard about the reputation of the land of honey wine.
A grand banquet made the poor townspeople even worse, because Changhu Town had a shameless tax called the welcome tax, and the lord's mansion was full of peace.
During the banquet, the mayor, who looked bloated and abnormal, knocked on the side of the guests who came from afar. Ling Qi naturally didn't mention the treasures of the dwarves, but just relied on the name of the elven kingdom to say that he wanted to trade and cooperate with them.
This made the lord, who was in awe of the forest elf kingdom, immediately become as well-behaved as his grandson.
The town of Changhu is in ruins, and there is nothing to trade with people. If it weren't for the fact that the elven kingdom still needed them to provide some simple handicraft products, food, fabrics, etc., I am afraid that in this town, except for the mayor, everyone could only eat dried fish every day, and they would definitely not have enough to eat. As such, the Mayor is cautious of anyone who has anything to do with the elves, even if it's just a business associate with the elves.
