"Your Majesty has demanded that all woodland elves who leave the country must bring enough gold coins. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 So when we receive the official letter of departure, the official who sent the letter will always bring us a bag full of gold coins. This bag of gold is enough to travel all of Middle-earth. Moreover, I have a dozen jewels in my armor in case I need them. ”

"Looks like I'm overthinking. However, you'd better take off the brooch and other treasure accessories before entering Arnol. With them, you can tell at a glance that they are not the elves of Ringu. ”

"Thank you for the reminder, my lord. Carefully removing all visible jewels from his body, the cavalry gave the lord a farewell salute and rode away.

Ordinary creatures were envious of the luxurious costumes of the woodland elves, but the wise were worried.

On the way to the Woodland Kingdom, the wise man first predicted the image that the woodland elves would form in the eyes of all living beings. Jewels and opulence are inevitable. It is possible that after a hundred years, even if the identity of the woodland elves is not revealed, they can be destroyed by the creatures of the non-elven race. After all, of all the elves, only the woodland elves are dressed as emerald beads. But what is Thrandeil's purpose in doing this? Is it true that he really wants to dominate Middle-earth?

If a king takes the wealth of the whole king into his own hands, the nation is rich and the people are poor. When the country is rich and the people are poor, the people will complain, and the accumulated grievances will one day be aroused, and the country will suffer from civil war. If a king makes the populace rich, all the commoners will actively defend the king. If a king makes his soldiers the richest creatures in the whole country, he has only one purpose - to make the soldiers willing to die for the country and become the overlord of the world with the help of an unstoppable army. Thrandir treats soldiers so favorably, does he really want to have the right to control the whole of Middle-earth?

However, the elves are a race that guards the entire world, and they should not encroach on the territory of other countries!

In order to find a definite answer, after Elrond entered the woodland kingdom, he deliberately paid attention to the costumes of the woodland elves along the way. The facts made him satisfied. It turned out that not only the soldiers, but all the elves in the woodland, even the woodland merchants who were regarded as the lowest class in the Middle-earth Public Order, were dressed as gorgeously as the woodland communication cavalry. It seems that the Elven King does not have the idea of becoming the overlord of Middle-earth, but purely wants the woodland elves to enjoy a superior life. And the Elven King also used words to answer the wise man's worries.

"Control the whole of Middle-earth?" I said wisely, control and protection are bound together, and to have control comes the duty of guardianship. Look at me now, I've almost lost myself just to protect the Great Green Forest. If you give me the drug, I will never accept control other than the Great Green Forest!"

The very relieved wise man gave a standard salute to the helpless elf king, and gave the promise that the other party wanted the most. "In that case...... I assure you that the frightened children will soon return to normal. ”

"A lot of things in Ringu have been left behind by you for the time being, right? I won't say thank you to you. If Ringu is really busy, you can bring the kids to Rivendell to help. Thranduil patted Elrond on the shoulder and led him towards the inner palace where the children were. Along the way, he seized the time to explain the situation to the best doctors. "I didn't dare to use drugs indiscriminately to relieve their agitation, so I could only force them to pour food and medicine. But after pouring it, it will still spit out a lot. Seriously, all the healers in the woodlands are basically helpless. I also think it's harder to get any of them than to win a fight. ”

"Hmm. Elves are born with the ability to heal themselves, but because of the holiness of their minds, psychic wounds are more difficult to heal than humans. It's no longer just a matter for healers. As he walked along, the wise man rummaged through the medical box at his waist and said to the elven king, "You must be mentally prepared. It may take a long time for you to see the children start to gradually return to normal. However, with you, the king, by their side, the time will be shortened a little. ”

"You mean it's better for me to be by their side?" the Elven King stopped and said with a reluctant but firm tone, "Best Healer, I'm sorry I can't be by their side as you suggested. During this time, I had to arrange all the pre-war preparations, and I had no free time. Twenty days later, I'll be out of the woodland for a while. In order not for you to affect the affairs of Ringu by healing the children, I suggest that you bring the children back to Ringu. ”

"Preparations for battle?" Elrond also stopped, and asked in a questioning and even slightly excited tone, "Are you in love with the abominable war?"

"I will send an army against Mordor to strike at the remnants of Sauron's legacy. Under the gaze of all the creatures around him, the Elven King stood with his hands behind his back, looked in the direction of Mordor and said slowly, "The filthy creatures of Mordor must pay the price. They will taste ten times more harm than children suffer. ”

Everyone in the room knew that the trauma suffered by the children in the woodland was psychological. So according to the Elven King, the species in Mordor will suffer even more terrible psychic intimidation? Although Elrond does not know the specific implementation policy of the Elven King for the time being, he firmly believes in what the Elven King said. It seems that what Sauron left behind is that the remnants of sin will surely suffer both mental and physical torment during the elven king's military campaign?

"Any creature who worships justice has an obligation to destroy the remnants of Sauron's power. Although I hate war, I do not want to miss the opportunity to fight evil. I make a request to you that you take all of my soldiers and all of Rivendell's soldiers with you when you go out. Elrond sincerely saluted the elven king, waiting for the other party's promise with great anticipation, but he didn't expect to wait for him to refuse without hesitation.

"Elrond, what are you kidding!" the Elven King looked at the wise man with complicated eyes, and there was a hint of imperceptible guilt in his voice. "Take the soldiers of Ringu with me to attack Mordor, who will be responsible for healing the children? Treat the children well, and help my woodland. ”

If Thranduil had been secretly proud of the strategy of "besieging Mordor in order to help Merandil seize power", then Elrond's positive response at this time, and even asking for support with actions, made Thranduil ashamed to find a crack in the ground.
