Chapter 215: The Coalition Reappears
The sky was gray, and the dark clouds blocked the evening sunset.
The mountains are under the clouds, and the howling mountain wind wanders in the valley, driving the sand and gravel to roll from one to the other.
Harold followed behind Olaf, the whole vast world seemed to be only the two of them, and in the distance was an endless prairie, which was vast and flat, and the battle that could accommodate millions of people was more than rubbing, and there was nothing superfluous here, so both warring sides definitely had a fair environment.
Olaf is here waiting for the arrival of the coalition forces.
The coalition seemed to be near, as the mountains responded to the dwarves, their towering peaks allowing them to see far into the distance.
At the end of the grassland, an ocean, spreading, where they were under the dark clouds, bathed in the gaps in the clouds under the sunset, the distance made them seem a little psychedelic, and it was this psychedelia that made them inseparable from the sea.
Lelouch was in the middle of the team, he looked at Estelle in front of him, Estelle was the Elven Emperor, this handsome-looking Elven Emperor was wearing a delicate elven armor, with long silver hair like a waterfall, and the hair on both sides fell vertically, making him look handsome and delicate.
Elves were originally a type of creature that appeared in Germanic mythology, and they were often depicted as tall, human-like, golden-haired, blue-eyed, and human-like Germanic people with slightly longer pointed ears, bows and arrows, because they first appeared as a race in Germanic mythology in regions such as Norway and Germania, and in regions such as the Nordic countries and Scandinavia, where they were mostly blond, blue-eyed Germanic peoples.
The elves are immensely beautiful and inhabit the deepest part of the forest. Other creatures that can be easily confused with elves are fairies, goblins, and goblins. In general, it is generally believed that elves do not have wings, while fairies and goblins have wings (the bundle of wings of dragonflies or the scales of mothflies) and are small enough to fly.
Well, yes, you read that right, goblins are also a type of elves, just as dwarves are elves, but dwarves are earth elves.
The origin of the elves is as follows in Germanic mythology: after the great god Odin killed the giant Ymir, the elves were born from the corpse of the giant, and absorbed the essence of the giant, becoming a spiritual creature. The elves of light are shining, dazzling, and very beautiful. They are usually gentle, cheerful and enthusiastic, and can communicate with trees, flowers, fish, and birds, so the gods regard them as friends of the gods. The Dark Elves, on the other hand, have dark skin and silver-white hair, and are often considered a symbol of evil.
This kind of elf is actually not caused by outsiders, and the experience that everyone knows, especially the elf prototype in film and television dramas and games, is the elf in European mythology, in which the elf is born from the tree of life and can evolve into an angel through a special ritual. They were the original inhabitants of Europe, and humans migrated about 7,8 thousand years ago and even had a war with the elves. In the end, humanity burned the Tree of Life, exterminated the Elves, and conquered Europe.
Elves are shorter in height as compared to humans. Elves have delicate skin and are still very white, their hair is pale and their eyes are many colors.
Skilled in magic and bows. Usually perched on trees, likes to be active at night, is friendly with animals, interracial, respects women, but the number of men is small.
In various legends, the characteristics of the elves can be summarized as follows: longevity, occasionally also considered immortality, good at art, noble, elegant, intelligent, beautiful, a certain degree of cleanliness and nature almost one, good at using magic and bows, living in the forest, forming a relatively loose kingdom, equal and friendly to each other. Elves are usually incredibly kind, hostile to evil races, and friendly to good races, while resenting rude dwarves in a sloppy way.
In fact, the arrogance of the elves comes mainly from the portrayal of the elves, and in traditional mythology, the elves are not arrogant, at least not in the middle of the haughty.
At this time, the Angelis elf in Lelous's eyes is the kind of elf image that modern people are familiar with, handsome and slender, good at using bows and arrows, and arrogant, even in Leluxiu's face, Estelle, who is also the emperor, is also with a trace of arrogance, especially during this time when it is said that Princess Lilith and Leluxiu are closer, it is even more hostile, but this personal hostility Estelle has not been brought to the national level at all, and he still controls the boundary between them very well.
"Your Majesty, there is a gathering place of dwarves ahead, and we have already met the dwarven supreme king!"
The news quickly spread throughout the army, and the morale of the coalition soldiers who once again received strong reinforcements was once again high, and anyone wanted the more people on their side as much as possible, the more the more at ease, so they also had more will to fight, and the addition of the dwarves undoubtedly made them feel more victorious, they didn't know how many people there were in Mordor, after all, two million people and two hundred thousand people were no different in their senses for these front-line soldiers.
They just have to fight until the last minute!
"Ahead are the sacred mountains of the dwarves!"
Looking at the majestic mountains, Lelouch couldn't help but sigh at the wonder of nature, this magnificent scenery made Lelouch breathtaking, and even Estelle had to admire the beauty of this place.
Lelouch knew what he remembered, and suddenly said:
"Estelle, I remember that you and the dwarves seem to be of the same race? Dwarves are also called earth elves? โ
Of course Lelouch didn't know, but he had this question and wanted to ask, but Estelle looked at him in disbelief, and then waved his hand again and again:
"How could the elves be of the same clan as those ground rats?"
After Estelle finished speaking, he seemed to feel that it was not enough, and continued:
It is said that the origin of the dwarves was created by the dwarven god Ori when Middle-earth was in darkness; Because the dwarven god Ollie longed too much for the children to come and teach him all his knowledge and craft, he did not want to wait any longer for the time when the idea of the Lord God would be fully fulfilled. Since the dwarven god Ori did not know what the children of the coming were like, he created the dwarves that we see later, and because the power of Mirko still enveloped the earth at that time, he wanted the people he created not only to be physically strong, but also to be mentally strong. But he feared that the other Veras would reproach him for his creation, so he did it in secretโin a cave deep in the mountains of Middle-earth, he created the first seven ancestors of the dwarves.
The Lord God knew what was happening, and at the moment when the dwarf god Olli was finished, very satisfied, and began to teach him the language he had invented for the dwarfs, the Lord God spoke to him; The dwarf god Olli heard its voice and couldn't help but be stunned. The voice of the Lord God said to him, "Why have you done such a thing? Why do you intend to do things that you know are beyond your authority and power? Your existence and your gifts are given by me, nothing more; Therefore, what you have made with your heart and with your hands will be limited by the nature of your existence, and they can only move when you ask them to move, and if your mind moves elsewhere, they will remain idle all day long. Will this be what you want? โ
The dwarven god Olli replied, "I don't want such dominance. It is my sincere hope that the things I have created will be different from mine, so that I may love and teach them, and that they may see the beauty of the One Asia (the universe) that you have created. As far as I can see, Alda is huge, with plenty of space for all things to live together, and most of the place is still empty and silent. My impatience led me to do stupid things. But the instinct of my heart to be eager to create things is you gave me; The little boy imitates his father by his own meager understanding, never mocking or contempt, and he imitates his father in this way, because he is his father's son. What can I do now so that you don't get mad at me forever? As a child to a father, I offer you these little things, they are the product of the hands you have made. You can judge them as you wish. Or should I destroy what I have made by my own speculation?"
After the dwarf god Olli finished speaking, he immediately picked up a huge iron hammer and tried to break the dwarf he had made, but he couldn't help crying before he could do it. Because of his humility, the Lord God had mercy on the dwarf god Ori and his desires; All the dwarves huddled together under the iron hammers, frightened, and bowed down to beg mercy. Then the voice of the Lord God said to the dwarf god Ori, "Your work is a foregone conclusion, and I accept what you offer." Do you not see that the things which you have created have taken on life of their own, and speak in their own voices? Therefore they will not be afraid of your blows, nor will they obey any of your commands. When the dwarven god Olli heard this, he threw down his iron hammer and turned to joy, and he thanked the Lord God and said, "May it bless my work as it is, and improve it!" โ
But the Lord God spoke again, "Just as I created my mind into the gods of existence at the beginning of the universe, so I have accepted what you have created and given them a land of life; But I'm not going to make any improvements to your masterpieces, and they're just what you make them look like. They predate the firstborn child I conceived, but I don't want to be bothered by that, and your haste won't pay off. Now let them sleep in the dark rocky earth until the firstborn children wake up on the earth; Until then, both you and they will have to wait, even if it seems like a long wait. When the time comes, I will awaken them, and they will be treated as your children; From now on there will always be conflicts between you and my children, but they are still the children I choose to adopt. โ
So the dwarven god Ori took up the seven ancestors of the dwarves, placed them in different places, and put them to sleep; Then he returned to the divine realm and waited for the long years to pass.
After saying this long Middle-earth myth, Estelle concluded at this time:
"So, dwarves are dwarves, elves are elves, and we are not even the same gods who created us, so how can we be the same race?"
Lelouch also knew nothing about this myth of Middle-earth, but Lelouch still heard some unusual news from Estelle's words, that is, the elves seemed to believe in the existence of gods, no, I should say that they believed in it.
This kind of thought that Estelle inadvertently revealed made Lelouch feel nervous, and he was not sure if there was a god in Middle-earth, but Lelouch felt that the gods of Middle-earth might not not exist, even if they were just a group of 'people' who had mastered the existence of higher powers, which at least showed that in Middle-earth, there were higher powers outside the known world of Middle-earth.
Lelouch pondered more than once how the humans built the Horn Fort and the White City, this question is like the earthlings curious about how the Egyptians built the pyramids, there may be no aliens in Middle-earth, but there may really be some forgotten existence, no, judging from the attitude of the elves, at least the elves still retain the evidence of conviction.
They may have had a lot of communication with Middle-earth, but now they have been cut off for some reason, which can explain why there were so many so-called artifacts in ancient times, take Lelouch's current sword Saint White Radiance as an example, his craftsmanship is completely impossible to imitate even now, although now Lelouch's engineers can finally find out some of the characteristics of the forging process of Saint White Radiance, but the use of magic is something that engineers can't solve, even churches.
Lelouch thought about this until a distant commotion pulled him back, and in front of him a large number of two dwarves riding goats stood beneath the mountains, and behind them, a trumpet blew out of the mountains.
A jungle of steel, dwarves love heavy weapons, but also have excellent discipline, the dwarven iron shield legion, is famous for its discipline and formation that is comparable to the human gun array, at this time appeared in front of the coalition army, is the vast iron shield legion, heavy steel shield, long spear.
Lelouch had already reequipped his halberds, and the dwarves still attached great importance to spears, perhaps only in this way could they make up for the disadvantage of their short people, and when countless dwarves descended from the mountain peaks in a row, this visual shock was enough to make everyone who saw this scene dare not take it lightly.
Olaf is very satisfied with the effect he deliberately created, the coalition also has to talk about fists, the number of dwarves is the smallest in the coalition, uh, he doesn't count centaurs as the core of the coalition!
Therefore, Olaf needs to prove that although the dwarves are few in number, they have the combat power that is not weaker than the human race and the elves, and this powerful legion is proof of this!
