One hundred and thirty-three, the choice of selfish desires

"Of course it's much easier!And then, the soldier you handed over to me will watch me put on the Ring and swear allegiance to me?" Thranduil was furious by the feeling of being calculated all the time, and even his impression of Serdan changed from pain to disgust. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "From the moment I got the Ring, all the soldiers I brought with me would immediately turn their weapons at me, violently 'escort' me to the Volcano of the Sun, and then 'help' me throw the Ring into the flames. I don't want such a hot military power, whoever wants it wants to go! I don't want the Lord of the Rings that can only be seen and touched!"

Sedan, who was hit by the Elven King's words, almost burst into tears. Not because the other party saw through their minds, but because they mourned for the warriors who died in vain. Seven years of fighting against the water, the lives of two supreme royal families, and the more than 20,000 dead Linton soldiers, finally became meaningless because the elven king refused to send troops against Esidor.

But can the Elven King be blamed for this? He is not willing to risk the death of the country to make the final blow, and there is nothing wrong with him. If you want to blame, you can only blame me and Elrond for not being strong enough to restrain Essidor. With self-reproach and admiration, he made an apologetic salute to the Elven King, and Sedans turned away with a blank turn.

"Didn't I say that you weren't allowed to leave the woodland barracks?" Thranduil, who was almost calculated, was really not in a good mood, and stopped the adviser who was trying to leave the camp at the camp gate, and his tone was naturally cold. "Do you have to let me confess that no wood elves are allowed to let you out of the camp?"

Vernor, who had always kept a distance of five paces from the Elven King, suddenly approached and said eagerly, "Is there a creature urging you to go and recover the Ring? ”

1050 years later, when Sauron secretly came to the Great Green Forest to build the Hex Mountain, and let the demon shadow cover the forest, the mentally deranged Vernor did not know that the wound suffered by the forest had something to do with the choice between defending justice and the elven king at the moment.

"It's not like what my advisors would say. Although the coldness of his tone did not change, Thranduil squinted slightly at the sky. Before he forced back the tears that were about to overflow in this way, he almost had to hug each other impulsively. But when he thought of what the elves and Isild had done in front of him, he maintained the king's public dignity.

"Haven't you always put the big picture first? Recovering the Ring will completely defend justice, and you actually persuaded me not to go? This is not your style. ”

While waiting for an answer, Thranduil greedily looked at the female elf in front of her, who was actually wearing the armor she had worn when she first met her. The ancient and heavy Dragon Lin Shoulder Guards had to be secured by two long iron clasps around the edges because the wearer's shoulders were too thin to hold it up. The silver mask that represented the identity was gone, and a plain black cloth replaced the mask to wrap the entire face. This familiar outfit made Thranduil recognise her from afar. It's a pity that the female elf, who was as tough as a diamond at the beginning, has already been worn away from all the light under the crippling of war, and even her expression at this time is extremely hesitant.

"If you go......" she looked down and thought for a moment, leading the horned deer to a quieter place, before exiting a few steps and said, "If you go, there will be a great danger." Wood Elves can't live without you. ”

In the end, among the less than 30,000 creatures left in the Alliance, you are the only one who can guess the possible consequences of pursuing the Ring. But is it really that hard to say, "I don't want you to go"? If you say it, maybe I can ignore the dirty things you did with Icild as much as I did about your marriage to Okepa?

"Do you really just want the Wood Elves to lose me?" the Elf King turned slightly, stretched his neck in the direction of Fnorr, and asked expectantly, "What about you? You are not a Wood Elf, are you afraid of losing me?"

"How dare I, an unholy elf, have any thoughts about you that transcend your status?" Squinting slightly to meet the cold wind of late winter, Vernor let out a helpless chuckle. "Can you not go?"

"You guessed it. The new King of Linton urged me to pursue the Ring, but I sternly refused. Thranduil subconsciously looked in the direction of Linton's barracks and said with a slight depression: "I have never had anything to do with Serdan, so I can't talk about any grudges. I really don't know why he tried to tempt me to take back the Ring with his military power and the One Ring. In King Sedan's foresight, he knew exactly how dangerous such an act would be to me and the woodlands. ”

Isn't my disguise enough to make the powers fearful that they don't think anything bad about me? Even an elf like Serdan, who likes to fiddle with wood and has never been very interested in politics, will take over the kingship of the woodlands, and his first decision is to find a way to lure me to the edge of the cliff? What have I done wrong to make all the powers come against me? At this moment, Thranduil suddenly remembered the dead High King. At least Gilgalad has never done anything against me, and though he has not given me strong support, he has done me justice.

"King Serdan is not targeting you. Rather, it is clear that only you have the strength to take back the Ring from Essidor. Seeing the elven king's puzzled expression, Vernor tried to take a step closer. After making sure that the other party did not show any more disgusted expressions, he walked over to the horned deer and patiently explained. "Don't you really know what the three words Elven King mean, and for the righteous side, it means hope. Only your people enjoyed a good life on the battlefield during the Seven Years' War. Marry and conceive offspring in the Golden Iron Horse, lay down your arms and enjoy the arms of your loved ones, wine and meat. To the enemy, the Elven King means invincible. Why did Essidor leave in a hurry with the Dendans when he got the Ring? Even though the Ring is in his hand, he doesn't want to face you, he thinks you are an invincible opponent in his heart. After the bloodline of the Noldor Supreme Royal Family was severed, the Elven King was the supreme spiritual leader of the last alliance in terms of influence and strength. No living creature can recover the Ring but you. Serdan knows that he is not capable, so he can only hand over the power of the army to you, and ask you to defend justice. He is for justice, not for selfish desires, and not for you. ”

I'm now the supreme spiritual leader of the Last Alliance?

Thranduil subconsciously looked down at herself, unable to accept this fact for a moment.
