Two days later, the Emperor returned to Arnor with 20,000 Arnoel soldiers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 InfoKing Linton and Lord Rivendell are on his way. After seeing the Lorryn Forest, King Linton parted ways with the Emperor of Men and traveled to the Woodland Kingdom to learn about the growth of trees.

On the twentieth day after the Emperor left, the Elven King and the Dwarven King trekked to the rear of Mordor. It took them five days to dig several passages in the Mordor Mountains. On the day the passage was completed, King Nader led the charge into Mordor, followed by tens of thousands of dwarves with Iron Feet. However, the two-year siege strategy disappointed the passionate dwarven king. Not only are the remaining Oakes in Mordor scarce, but they don't even have the ability to resist, so how can they kill them happily? The Dwarven King, who was not happy, had no choice but to annihilate all the Oakes who were still able to move freely according to the plan.

As the Dwarven King walked out of Mordor, the last woodland soldier who had been hiding outside Mordor for two years stood in front of the Elven King. At this point, all the scouts who had been engaged in the siege in the woodland returned. Looking at the elves around him, who were covered in frost and black veils, the elven king walked over and touched their shoulders.

"You've worked hard. The blonde king with an indifferent expression spoke softly, and hesitantly reached out to pat every elf who had been sleeping in the open for two years. It wasn't until the last elf was quite excited to receive the salute that he turned to the dwarven king, who had been complaining that he hadn't had a good fight, and said, "Listen to what you say, there is no problem for Gondor to take down Mordor?"

"Yes, there are too many supplies, enough for Gangduo to count!" The dwarven king, who sat down on the box brought by the guards, touched his beard and muttered, "It seems that the five new treasury are not enough at all." ”

How could Thrandil, who had collected all the spoils of the Black Gate eighteen years ago, not know how much Mordor had earned? Your mother and wife will be happy too. ”

Nader was about to say anything more when he saw the Elven King blink at him and raise his chin. The former apparently understood what this action meant. I saw the dwarf king wave his hand and explain to the supreme general who had been waiting by his side: "After they all come out, remember to block the passage." ”

On the surface, the Mordor Purge seems to be only about the Gondor people, and this is a long-established consensus. Although the dwarf Ironfoot had to enter Mordor to complete the sweep in advance in order to relieve the pressure of Gondor's battle, it could not change the fact that it left no trace. The passage was dug but blocked, also to maintain the appearance that the clean-up war was completed by Gondor alone.

Five days later, the black door that had not been opened since Sauron's vanishing was pushed open by the soldiers of Gondor. Due to disrepair, the black gate, which had been closed for eight years, was opened when it completely collapsed. Watching King Gondor lead his troops straight into Mordor, who had been "standing by" not far away, the dwarves and elves who had been "standing by" not far away breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, does the fact that Mordor has been recovered by the humans mean that peace has really arrived?" the elf with a green face who stood beside the Elf King asked softly.

"Temporary peace has arrived. At the very least, we'll be in the forest for a long time without coming out. Thranduil, who was in a good mood, said this with a light smile. Then he saw the elves around him all looking at each other and smiling, and the smile was bright and pure.

Three days later, Thranduil declined Mordor's reconquest banquet and led a dozen elves out of the war zone. Merandiel, who had rushed to see him off, hurriedly stepped forward and solemnly saluted the elven king in front of the dwarves, humans, and elves.

"Your kindness will be celebrated among my descendants. The white-haired King Gondor stood beside the deer and said sincerely, "May you give me the honor of witnessing the wedding banquet of the elven royal family as soon as possible." ”

"Well, however, it is not necessary to preach the praises. Do you and I have to let future generations know about your disgraceful deeds?" Raising an eyebrow at King Gondor, Thranduil put on a solemn look and said, "I hope there will never be a chance to come back to Gondor. ”

It meant that I should be kind to the people, otherwise he would have to come to Gondor himself to learn about the situation, so as to weigh whether or not to make my handwritten letter public.

Bitterness spread through King Gondor's heart. It's not because the other party has a magic weapon to restrain them, but because the elf king doesn't want to see each other again. But how can it be bitter? We have done dishonorable things together, and of course we are not happy to meet again and reminisce about the past. Merandiel could understand the feeling. He had no choice but to express his regretful attitude: "The situation will be as you wish." ”

The end of Thranduil's encounter with Gondor does not mean the end of the whole thing. In order to heal the wounds of the mutiny, many living beings are still working hard. Elrond, who was in charge of the record, was the one who worked hardest.

Knowing that Gondor had successfully regained Mordor, the wise man pondered for two days in the valley of the forest, where the seasons were like spring, before he began to write down a different Gondor in the Third Age. He did not spend a single word on the change of rights, but wrote on the white paper: Merendil succeeded to the throne as King of Gondor in the second year of the Third Age, and Valandil, the son of Eldor, remained the supreme king recognized by mankind.

Elrond knew that that this sentence alone would be enough. By the time the years passed on to Merandil's son's succession to the throne and the addition of the Semantor to the record, all living beings could see the fact that the power of Gondor had passed through the family of Merandiel. And the Emperor never set foot in Gondor, nor did he have Gondor's annual routine meetings and tributes, and the entire Zhongzhou could understand that Gondor's real power had nothing to do with the Emperor. As for the siege of Mordor, which had to disappear, the Wise Man added at the end of the "Last Alliance" record that Mordor was to be taken over by Gondor after the battle.

Leaves no obvious clues?, Elrond chuckled in relief.

If you read the records that have lasted for tens of thousands of years, you will understand how much peace has been superficial, and how much turmoil has hidden in it. The change of power itself is an obvious clue, and those who can read the record will know what "change" means, and also understand how grand the change of jurisdiction of the great powers is, and how many lives will be affected. Throwing a pebble on the surface of a calm lake will also cause ripples in the water, and how can the alternation of rights that determine the fate of countless human beings be so peaceful that there is not a trace of turmoil? And most of the creatures who can't really see through the records will use their understanding to add a boost to the shattering of the peace. This is what the young human emperor wants, and it is also what the elves hope to do for the human emperor.

It turns out that the wind, frost, rain and dew of the years have made the behavior of the wise man play a role. When Mordor was conquered by Gondor alone, and all those involved in Gondor's power change remained silent about the matter, it was reported in Zhongzhou that the Emperor did not take the initiative to take back Gondor's real power, and the Gondor people were ruled by Merandil by default.

And the siege of Mordor, which is not written in the battle records, has been diluted in memory. While a hundred years later, there are still elderly dwarves or humans who mention that dwarves and elves helped conquer Mordor, the wise know that with the death of this generation of witnesses, the change in Mordor's ownership will eventually be as plain as it is recorded, and the general public will not think it is worth mentioning.

Only the elves of immortality have the memory to resist the vicissitudes of life, and always remember everything that happened in the past. But the immortal spirit is precisely the existence that the wise do not worry about.

Thousands of years ago, knowing that there must be a more important reason for the change of records, the elves who have witnessed the changes of time have revered all the rules that used to be based on records. No elf will tell the truth that violates the record, and the elves will not dwell too much on the past before the evil is completely gone. They will only remain as indifferent as ever, devoting all their energy to fighting evil.

The Emperor of the People, who was far away in the palace of Arnoor, although he did not agree with the elves' habit of valuing the future, was full of trust in the abilities of the wise. After knowing that the image of the human emperor will be bright and beautiful in the future, he has the confidence to act. The resentment against the Elven King was temporarily buried in his heart, and Valandil, who retained the title of "Emperor of Men", began to clean up all affairs and creatures that were not beneficial to Arnoel. The first creature to be disposed of by the emperor was not General Osborne, who did not accompany him because of his broken bones, nor the Saxons, who went through the changes of Gondor with him, but Helana, who was still looking forward to enjoying the status of the previous empress.

The official who returned with the Emperor sent a message to Helana that Gondor had granted Merandil real power to the Emperor himself. King Gondor would not admit anyone other than Rosalind as the previous queen, and Shelana knew it. She was almost mad with rage. Not only did she treat the lost and returned Valandil with the act of smashing everything, but she also demanded that the emperor immediately issue an edict recognizing herself as the previous queen, and she waited for an unexpected order.

"You will be treated like a queen in the royal palace. The human emperor sitting in the pile of debris said this coldly, and then called several officials and the palace supervisor and ordered: "Xilana is my biological mother, and she will always be treated as an empress in the palace." Until I die, I will not step out of the palace, nor will I need to be assigned any more responsibilities related to dominion. ”
