Chapter 0274 - Rivendell (4)
"Hello! Are you the bearded dwarves who are particularly good at striking iron and smelting metal?! β
During the last two days in Rivendell, Anne and Tiebs, after careful research and discussion, quickly developed a small plan called 'Ragnarok' to subvert the Lord of the Rings in Middle-earth and cause trouble for the indigenous gods here!
It's just that after thinking about it again, they found that everything is fine with this plan, and it seems that the feasibility of implementing it is quite high? However, when she can't use magic at will, Anne discovers that the only downside is that she desperately needs some experts who are particularly skilled in smelting metals and have a special knowledge of building machinery!
She had considered training some human blacksmiths, but after asking some elves, she found that the current human iron-smelting technology was very primitive, and it was only in the era of small workshop production and the creation of farm tools, cold weapons and armor, which did not meet her basic requirements at all!
As for the elves, not to mention, she could see that those elves were too lazy! Although the skills are not bad, their scale is too small, and the number of craftsmen is even smaller, and sometimes, they have to spend several times as much time carving those useless patterns to build a sword? This emphasis on efficiency is something that Anne will never tolerate!
So, before she could figure out what to do, she found out that a group of dwarves had come to Rivendell? Therefore, after hearing that the dwarves were good at mining and ironmaking, she hurried to get up to it as soon as possible.
"Huh? There's a little human girl here in Rivinedell? β
They had just arrived in Rivendell, and had just been led by the elves who had made them very unhappy to sit down in a hall to rest, when suddenly, Groyin, the son of Geyin, the old dwarf who had gone on an expedition to the Lonely Mountain with Thorin Oakshield and fought evil dragons, saw a little human girl rushing in outside the door?
"That's right, we're the bearded dwarves you call for mining and smelting metal! In fact, all of our dwarves are good at mining and smelting metal! β
Thinking that the little girl was a child of some human aristocracy who also came to Rivendell, Groyin touched her beard and laughed unconcernedly.
"Like this? So, do you accept employment? I need some dwarves to do the work for me, and I can pay you! β
Since these dwarves were indeed the kind of coolies she needed, Anne spoke impatiently. If she hadn't promised not to use magic casually, a contract would have been snapped a long time ago, so why would she need such trouble?
"Uh...... Why not? If you can afford it......"
After glancing at several of his companions and his son Jin Li, Groyin said half-jokingly.
He didn't think that this little human girl could afford to pay the dwarves who hired them, after all, they had gained endless gold and wealth after killing Smaug with Thorin on their expedition to the Lonely Mountain decades ago, and now their Turin dwarven tribe in the Lonely Mountain and Iron Hills was living in abundance and was not short of money.
"Great! I need at least two hundred dwarven craftsmen to work for me, and if you can get me, these magical gems with magical powers will be yours! β
Without hesitation, Anne took out a large bag of high-energy crystals directly from her seemingly small pocket, and then pushed it in front of the dwarven leader so generously.
"How the hell did you come up with this pocket? You are...... A wizard?! β
"It's a bit offensive, but I want to make it clear: actually, we Turin dwarves aren't short of money......"
After frowning and looking up and down the little girl standing in front of him for a while, Groyin opened the pocket with a little curiosity, and then, he instantly tightened the pocket at a faster speed, and directly held it in his arms.
This action made his son Jin Li next to him mumble and glare at his old father very dissatisfied, he just didn't have time to see what was inside!
"The team we came to Rivendell this time has a total of about three hundred guards, and they are all skilled craftsmen! How long do you need us to work for you? β
Originally, he only planned to come to Rivendell for a meeting and go back, but now he suddenly felt that if he could make some extra money by the way, it seemed to be a good choice? Anyway, being idle is idle, and there's nothing to do when you go back to Gushan, right?
"Hmm...... I want you to do it for me for so long! β
After thinking about it for a while, little Annie, who didn't know the price, after discussing it with Xiao Xiong a little, stretched out two white and tender fingers, she thought, it should be about the same for two months, right?
"Two years? Deal!!! β
ββ¦β¦β
ββββ
"Strangers from afar, or old friends, welcome to Imra Tri ......"
In front of an unusually old elven building in Rivendell, beside a stream, and in the shade of a large oak tree, the Noldor elves arranged large wooden chairs with backs around the trunk. Whether it was the humans from Gondor, the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain, the Sylvan Wood Elves of the Dark Forest, or the Emissaries of the Lothlorim Elves of the Golden Forest, they all sat in their seats in a large circle and began to listen to the speech of the conference host, the Noldor High Elf Elf Elon King.
Here, of course, in addition to the emissaries of the major powers mentioned above, there are also the gray-robed wizard Gandalf and his friend Aragorn, the Hobbit Frodo the Ring-bearer, and a little human girl who is looking around, obviously absent-minded, and seems to be a little impatient?
"Today, you have been summoned here to deal with the threat of Mordor."
"Believe me, Middle-earth has reached its most critical moment! If inaction continues, no race will survive this catastrophe by then! β
"Now you are left with only two options: Or, unity! Or, perish ......"
King Elon stood in front of the throne beside the trunk of the oak tree, and looked at the representatives of the various tribes with their own thoughts, and he tried to speak in a solemn tone, so as to attract their attention.
"We don't have much time left, and until now, Sauron's Magic Eye is still watching here! It won't be long before all the races of Middle-earth will be able to escape this fate and this catastrophe! β
When he saw that the dwarves in the seats were a little absent-minded, and the human messengers seemed to have other purposes, King Elon could only sigh secretly.
Now, judging from the attitudes of the representatives of all sides, he could almost tell that in the face of the threat of Sauron and his evil forces, the dwarves of Turin clearly had a high attitude of not caring about themselves! And the human kingdom Gondor, who bore the brunt of it, seems to have come here with ulterior motives?
As for the two elven forces, they can't ask for too much......
After all, the two tribes of them have now begun to organize their clansmen to respond to the call of the gods, go to the shore of Gray Harbor, prepare to cross the sea to the west, and sail to Amen Island by boat along the straight channel, right? At that time, how many elves are still willing to stay in the middle world?
"Alright, please bring the ring, Frodo......"
Since the representatives of the various clans seem to be a little absent-minded now, King Ayron doesn't bother to say more, so he just gets straight to the point.
If it's the One Ring, these people who come here must be interested, right?
So, as he looked at the hobbit, King Elon reached out and made a gesture of invitation to a small stone platform in the middle of them, signaling Frodo to place the One Ring here for the time being.
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that King Elon was about to hand over the ring, Frodo didn't hesitate and took two steps forward.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, he quickly walked to the front of the small stone table, and from his pocket, took out the golden ring that countless people had dreamed of, which was said to have endless magic and power, and gently laid it flat in the middle of the stone table.
"This ......"
When they saw the small golden ring on the stone table, the representatives of the various ethnic groups began to be agitated.
"The legend turned out to be true......?"
At this time, the representative of Gondor, Boromir, the eldest son of the current regent of Gondo, Dinnerser II, suddenly lit up his eyes when he saw the One Ring, and he kept rubbing his bearded chin, not knowing what the hell he was trying to do again.
At this time, Frodo, the hobbit, who had put down the ring and returned to his seat, breathed a sigh of relief.
He thinks that after handing over the ring, he will soon be able to get rid of all this, and then return to the charr happily with his companion Sam?
However, what he didn't know was that this Supreme Ring, which had just been placed on the stone round table, had already had some very bad influence on the representatives of the various ethnic groups present.
"In my dream, I saw the eastern sky darken......"
At this time, Boromir, the human representative of the kingdom of Gondor, was the first to stand up.
"But in the West, there is still a glimmer of light......"
"A voice kept shouting at me: Your destruction is near! Essidor nemesis has been found......"
As he spoke, Boromir slowly moved forward, constantly approaching the stone round table, and then slowly stretched out his trembling hand, as if he wanted to pick up the Supreme Ring on the table?!
"Boromir!"
When Boromir was about to touch the Ring, King Elon just wanted to stop it, but where did he think that Gandalf, the gray-robed wizard who was sitting next to him and was on guard, took the lead?
An obscure piece of fishing gear began to echo in everyone's ears, causing Boromir, who was about to touch the ring, to retract his hand in an instant.
I don't know what kind of incantation did the old man Maia, Gandalf, recite any of them, or if he was planning to give the representatives of the tribes here a dismount?
Therefore, while he kept chanting the incantation aloud, the entire sky of Rivendell instantly became dark, and at the same time, the tremor made everyone feel the world spinning for a while, forcing Boromir, who was about to touch the One Ring, to step back and slump back into his original seat.
ββ¦β¦β
"Cut! Isn't it true that you can't use powerful magic casually? Isn't this big magic, but what is it?! β
Compared to the dizzy and painful look that the others were exuding, Anne on the side seemed much more natural.
Now she just glanced at the bad old man in front of her with disdain, and muttered something very unpleasantly.
Before him, he kept saying that he was not allowed to use too powerful magic in front of mortals casually, but he didn't use it directly? Can this kind of large-scale bioshock technique, which can affect the climate and senses, still be classified as ordinary low-power magic?
This is obviously a difference! When she was on Earth, what did Anne say when she overheard the sentence? That's right! It seems that only officials are allowed to light lamps, and civilians are not allowed to set fires?
It seems like...... Probably...... That's what it is, anyway?
Hum! We'll see, when the time comes, if she doesn't make a mess of this Middle-earth of their gods, she will definitely not leave here easily!
"No one has ever dared to utter such an evil incantation in Imra Tri (Rivinedell)! Gandalf ......"
King Elon recognized it directly, the spell that Gandalf had just recited was the inscription on the Supreme Ring, and then at the same time it brought the magic power of the Ring itself, which could cause such a big vision of heaven and earth.
So, when everything was back to normal, Elven King Elon stared at Gandalf who had re-seated with a very bad face and reprimanded.
"I know what I've done, and I don't ask for your forgiveness, King Elrond......"
"Because, the dark spell from Mordor, it may not be long before it will resound throughout the Western world of Middle-earth! So, I'm just reminding you that this One Ring, it's an evil being, and we have to discuss what to do with it! β
Gandalf stood up again, explaining slowly, his eyes glaring over at the representatives and warning again. He didn't want to see a daredevil, like the reckless Boromir just now, who casually wanted to come up and touch the ring.
"No...... It's a gift, it's a gift against Mordor! β
As Gandalf finished speaking and was about to go back to his seat, Boromir, from Gondor, hurriedly stood up again and pointed to the Lord of the Rings.
"Why don't we try to make the most of this ring? All along, my father, regent of the kingdom of Gondor, devoted himself to resisting the power of Mordor on the east side of the Anduin River......"
"It is because of the bloody fighting of our children of Gondor that you have been saved!"
Looking at the Noldor Elves, Golden Forest Elves, and Dwarves further west of Middle-earth, Boromir's tone began to become unfriendly, and he spoke a little loudly.
"Now, I suggest that we give this ring to Gondor with the weapon against Mordor, so that we can use it against our common enemy!"
All along, it was only the Gondor Kingdom and its army that fought against Mordor's orc army on the front line, and only the people of Gondor died!
They had fought the remnants of Mordor for countless years, and even more than a thousand years ago, they lost the former capital of their kingdom, Minas Ihir in the Valley of the Caves!
Until now, in the recent period, Mordor's offensive has become stronger and stronger, and Boromir, as a high-ranking general of Gondor, has long known that with the strength of Gondor alone, if it continues like this, it will definitely not be able to resist for long......
So, now here in Rivendell, when he saw this legendary One Ring with great magic and power, and then remembered its various legends and records, Boromir was very eager to get this ring, and wanted to change the current declining military situation of Gondor.
This was also what his father, Dinesser II, the Chancellor of Gondor, expected, and it was also the reason why he Boromir temporarily left the front line of Osgillias and came here to act as an emissary in person!
"I'm sorry, you can't handle it, and none of us here can! The One Ring, it only obeys the orders of the Demon Lord Sauron, it has no other master! β
At this time, Aragorn, who had been sitting silently as an audience member and not speaking much, finally couldn't help but speak.
"Oh? It's ridiculous! You ...... A mere ranger? How much do you know?! β
After hearing that someone behind him dared to refute his words, Boromir turned around as soon as possible.
When he found out that it was the strange human man he had seen the night before, where the fragment of Nasir's sword had been placed, he couldn't help but start to lash out.
What is his Boromir identity? He is not only the eldest son of the regent of Gondor, but also the frontline general of Gondor, who has been fighting the Mordor army on the front lines on both sides of the Anduin River for many years, and is also the ambassador of the Gondor Kingdom to Rivendell this time!
And the man in front of him, what is the identity of the other party? How dare you take the lead in refuting yourself when all the other qualified emissaries haven't spoken?!
"Well, I actually wanted to say it a long time ago!"
"I don't have much opinion on the representatives or emissaries of other forces who are qualified to sit here for a meeting! I don't even have much thought about the hobbit who brought us the Lord of the Rings! But, who is this man? Why is he qualified to sit here and listen to us discuss matters concerning the survival of Middle-earth? β
"And! This little girl over here! Who is she? If I'm not mistaken, she's a little human girl, right? Why is she sitting here? Could it be that she is still the princess of a certain country?! β
After staring at Aragorn for a moment, who had refuted him, Boromir turned to look to the other side, the little human girl sitting next to Gandalf, still looking around, and holding a stuffed teddy bear that refused to settle for a moment!
In Boromir's opinion, this little girl is only about eight years old at most, right?
Therefore, he didn't understand why such a little girl would be allowed to sit at such a grand and important meeting now. In the western part of Middle-earth, could he Boromir not remember any other kingdom or power qualified to attend this meeting? Not to mention sending a little girl to participate! Could it be that all the men in their country are dead?!
"What do I have to do with you here?!"
Anne, in utter boredom, was looking up at a large red-green bird dozing in its nest on a branch of the great oak tree, and she wondered if she should find an opportunity to catch it, pluck it, and roast it when the meeting was over. Or steamed?
But where did she think that she was so good herself, and she didn't recruit anyone or provoke anyone, why did this bearded uncle, he just come to blame himself? She didn't want to come in the first place, did he think he was so rare to attend this meeting?
Therefore, Anne, who refused to suffer, glared back viciously at the first time!
If it weren't for the Elven boss King Elon sitting at the top and the bearded thief old man Gandalf next to herself, she wouldn't want to participate in this Lord of the Rings meeting, she would have been bored to death just now! If you have time here to listen to their weird uncles, you might as well fly to the tree and grab that big bird that looks delicious!
Left and right are just a tattered ring, what's so rare?
If she is left to deal with it herself, she will casually throw it into her own space bag, and be sure that the great lich named Sauron will never find it for the rest of her life! Or do you just burn it with a flame yourself?
No matter how bad she is, she can open a long-distance portal, go directly to the top of the pass of the Doomsday Volcano, and then easily drop this rag?
Of course, although little Anne has her own way to deal with it, she just doesn't say it and them off! Let them go to their own devices!
"Ahem...... I forgot to tell you about ......."
Hearing Boromir's question, Gandalf, who was sitting on the side, stretched out his hand and hurriedly comforted the good-looking Anne who was about to give the human uncle opposite, before he hurriedly introduced himself to the other messengers and said:
"This is Her Excellency Anne Hasta, who, as you can see, is indeed a human being."
"But...... She's also a witch more powerful than me! So, Boromir, I don't think it's a wise choice for you to offend such a being......"
Gandalf's meaning is already obvious, and he should quickly admit his mistake and apologize as soon as possible, otherwise, if this little girl is provoked and goes crazy, even he may not be able to stop it.
ββ¦β¦β
Well, such an inconspicuous little girl turned out to be a wizard even more powerful than this old man?! If that's the case, then he really can't afford to offend.
"What about him? Who is he?! β
But for him to apologize to a little girl, it would be absolutely unlikely! So, he had to turn his head in embarrassment, and looked at the ranger who had dared to refute his words just now.
A little girl wizard, he really can't afford to provoke, but, this lonely little ranger, he can always bully and make things difficult, right? Anyway, the Arno Kingdom in the north has long been dispersed, and all that remains are a group of leaderless rangers fighting on their own, and they will never become a big climate!
"He is Aragorn, the son of Arazon II and Gilrain, the thirty-ninth grandson of Essidor! Do you think he has the right to sit here? β
"And, if I'm not mistaken, you should need to swear allegiance to him by now......"
At this time, a handsome elf who had been sitting on the side and had a good relationship with Aragorn finally couldn't help it, so he stood up directly and said loudly.
During his years of travel in Aragorn, he, the elven prince of Sylvan, had formed a deep friendship with Aragorn! Now, seeing that his friend is being troubled, then he must help him.
In fact, these immortals of all races here know Aragorn more or less, and their friendship with each other is not bad, and they also know a little bit about Aragorn's true identity.
Even, in the early years, Aragorn hid his real name and served as a general under the regent of Gondor, Exirion II, not only for Gondor, but also for Axilion to love the mysterious officer even more than his own son Dineth!
It's a pity that the lifespan of ordinary humans is too short, and after two generations, now this Boromir doesn't recognize him. Therefore, the reason why the future Aragon was able to ascend to the throne of Gondor is not completely unreasonable!
Look, now except for the fast-dying humans in the Gondor Kingdom who have forgotten him, the heads and brains of the other races, isn't that one closely related to him? With such a wide range of connections, let alone legally inheriting a kingdom, even if they directly usurp the throne, it is estimated that these bigwigs present will turn a blind eye, right?
ββ¦β¦β
"Aragonese ......? This is the descendant of Essidor?! β
If the little witch who was said to be very powerful just now was a person who he didn't dare to offend easily and could make himself afraid, then now this ranger is an existence that can shock Boromir.
Their kingdom of Gondor, which had not had a king for nearly a thousand years, had always been ruled by the prime minister.
And now, casually running out of a wild man he doesn't know, trying to pretend to be their royal family of Gondor, pretending to be a descendant of Elendil? What's the joke!?
Therefore, what Boromir just said was very scheming, because he only deliberately pointed out that the other party was the descendant of Essidor, and did not say anything else!
This is because, after the death of the king of Gondor in 1944 of the Third Age, when Gondor faced a succession crisis, the chancellor of Gondor decided and pointed out two very important precedents that influenced the law of the future choice of the king of Gondor, namely: first, the successor of Essidor must not become the king of Gondor! Second, only the eldest or remnant male direct descendants of the Anarian family will be able to ascend to the throne!
As a result, a very interesting phenomenon has appeared here: Elendil is the son of Amendir, the Prince of Andunay of the NΓΊmenor Empire, and the father of Essidor and Annarian, and the founding king of the Kingdom of Fangarnor in the north of Middle-earth and the Kingdom of Gondor in the south of Midway!
In this way, strange things happen: after the death of Elendil, Essidor officially transferred the inheritance of Gondor to his brother Anarian, and he himself chose to go north to the kingdom of Arno.
Therefore, de jure, all the direct or collateral descendants of Essidor certainly have no right to inherit the throne of Gondor! However, if the descendants of Essidor claim to be descendants of Elendil, then, de jure, they must have the absolute right to inherit both the kingdom of Arnor and the kingdom of Gondor!
To put it simply: the descendants of Essidor cannot inherit the kingdom of Gondor! However, the descendants of Elendil can! Even if they're actually the same person!
To put it more bluntly, that is: Uncle A, Dad's son, he can't inherit the family property of Uncle A, but Uncle A, Grandpa's grandson, he can! What do you think? Isn't that a fucking logic?
And now, this Aragorn is the thirty-ninth grandson of Essidor, if he dares to use this name to plan to inherit the kingdom of Gondor, he Boromir can confidently draw his long sword and fight the other party, even if he directly kills the other party, no one will dare to gossip!
Because, thirty-nine generations of Essidor's descendants have no right to claim the succession of Gondor king!
However, if this Aragorn in front of him was asking the prime minister of the kingdom of Gondor to return the throne to him in the name of the fortieth grandson of Elendil, and if Boromir did not want to rebel and take on the name of disloyalty, then he would have to do it honestly!
ββ¦β¦β
"Gondor has no king! Gondor doesn't need a king now! β
After glancing at the representative of the Sylvan elves behind him, and then turning his head to stare at the so-called son of Alazon who was sitting in his position slightly awkward, Boromir snorted coldly, turned his head and walked straight to his place, and at the same time said in a gloomy tone.
Now, he didn't want to argue about the Lord of the Rings.
He simply sat down in his place, gasping for breath as he stared with a sinister gaze from time to time at the rightful king of the so-called kingdom of Gondor.
He, Boromir, would never admit that this so-called son of Alazon, who had no contribution to Gondor, wanted to jump out and pick peaches at this time!
(PS: Personally, I think that Boromir buried the cause of death because of this sentence of not recognizing Aragorn!) How could Gandalf, an old thief who had lived insidiously and cunningly for thousands of years, tolerate him to continue to live as a stumbling block? Otherwise, why is no one in the Fellowship of the Ring, and a few hobbits who don't have any fart are all fine, so they just let the eldest son of the prime minister of Gondor, who opposes Aragorn's succession to the throne, go out and die?! οΌ
"Aragorn is right, none of us can use this Supreme Ring!"
After seeing that the two did not clash again, Gandalf smiled reluctantly, and then hurriedly summed it up, he didn't want the two sides to be entangled in the matter of Aragorn's identity! At least, it shouldn't be this time.
"So, we only have one choice left now, and that is: try to destroy this evil ring!"
After seeing that everyone had finally quieted down, the presiding officer of the meeting, King Elrond, finally stood up again and said.
Now, the evil forces from outside have begun to gather and eye, and there are traces of the strong orcs of Isengard, so he can no longer let this One Ring stay here in Rivinedell! Today, they have to make a reasonable choice for this and come up with a plan!
When the Elven King Elon finished speaking, the representatives of the various clans began to look at each other a little.
Obviously, they don't have any opinions on destroying this ring for the time being, and they don't dare to have any opinions! Anyway, the Lord of the Rings must not be taken away by any of the families here, so it is a good idea to destroy it and no one can get it!
But how exactly to destroy it is a big question......
"So what are we waiting for?!"
Suddenly, a simple and reckless voice roared.
Then, before everyone could react, a bearded dwarf, after picking up the large plate axe hidden behind his seat, went up to the Supreme Ring on the stone table and slashed at Huashan with a fierce slash!
In the next moment, when a loud collision sound, something shocked the dwarves happened: their elite plate axe actually shattered and exploded into a pile of fragments under the tremendous force? And that ring, lying unscathed on the stone table, without even a notch?
"You can't destroy the One Ring, Golden Bolt, Son of Groyin!"
"In fact, no one here can do that...... The Lord of the Rings is forged from the flames of Mount Doom, so only in the flames of Mount Doom can it be successfully destroyed......"
Staring at the ring on the stone table and the broken axe fragments, King Elon spoke word by word.
"Cut~!"
Little Anne on the other side, after glancing at the dwarf on the ground who was still in a daze, pouted angrily, the other party had just scared away the big bird in the tree that she had been staring at for a long time......
As for what Elven Leader Elon said, Anne didn't quite agree.
It seemed to her that destroying the Ring was too easy! Her family's fire magic skills are the strongest, isn't it the same as playing with a magic ring to melt it? Where do you need to run to the Doomsday Volcano? But, seeing that these people were in a hurry but helpless, she secretly disdained it, but at the same time, she just didn't say it!
"The Ring must go deep into Mordor and then throw it into the fiery abyss from which it was founded."
"So, one of you has to do it!"
There is a plan, but who will implement it now is a big question! After all, is this a life-or-death or even life-saving mission?
Therefore, after the end of this passage of the elf king Elon, the representatives of all parties instantly quieted down, this kind of thing is obviously a fateful thing, no one dares to take the lead in speaking out, and they don't want to be the first bird, they are not stupid!
"Humph! Don't think about it! Getting into Mordor is not an easy task! β
"Where, that dark gate, there are not only powerful evil guards, but also half-orcs, demons patrolling day and night! Sauron's evil eye is constantly watching......"
"Besides, inside Mordor is a barren wasteland, full of flames, dust, and ashes, and even the air you breathe is full of poisonous smoke...... You don't even have a place to hide from the enemy and hide and rest......"
"So, even if you give me 10,000 troops, I won't be able to fight it! That's not to mention wanting to sneak in alone......"
Boromir, who has been fighting Mordor for many years, sneered and said everything he knew in the first time, and their scouts of Gondor, over the years, have not been less inquired about the situation in Mordor! Of course, there are many more who are discovered by the enemy and die tragically!
"Didn't you hear what King Elon said? The Lord of the Rings must be destroyed! β
Seeing that this human was actually demoralizing again, the elven prince Legolas also stood up again and refuted loudly.
"So what do you mean: it's up to you to do it?!"
Seeing that the elf who was most displeasing to his eyes stood up, Jin Li, who had just cut the ring and failed to succeed, was also very unhappy and asked loudly.
"What if we fail? What if Sauron gets the ring?! β
Boromir stood up again and joined the loud quarrel.
"Even if I die, I won't give up the Ring to any elf!"
Louder than his voice, the bearded dwarf Jin Li was of course unwilling to be left behind, so he also jumped off the chair at the same time and raised his head directly to quarrel with the tall elf.
Get! At this moment, the representatives of the human Gondor, several Sylvan elves and the few dwarves who were originally quite peaceful, also stood up one after another, and started a group quarrel about the matter of the Lord of the Rings.
"Hah! It's interesting, that's fun! β
Compared to the headaches of King Elon and Gandalf and Aragorn, little Anne, who has nothing to do with herself, is much more energetic!
I don't know where she got a plate of elven dim sum, just eating it, staring at this guy with great interest and arguing with adults, she is looking forward to the next full martial arts performance of these people!
Anyway, isn't it often said on TV? When words can't be easily persuaded by the other party, fists become the best choice? At some point, the big fist is justified?
Things have come to this point, little Anne is ready to act as a qualified spectator, and she is very hopeful that today, here she can see this group of people fighting their heads and bleeding?
"Never trust a perfidious elf!"
"You greedy dwarves are no better!"
"That's right, the greedy dwarves are obvious to all, they can even dare to hollow out the entire foggy mountains in order to find a piece of gold!"
"You talk nonsense! We dug up the Misty Mountains for the Mithril Mine! There's not much gold there in the Foggy Mountains! β
"Nope! Rings should be given to us humans! β
"Hell! I can't give you shameless human beings! If it weren't for the fact that your human king had made the ring himself, it would have been ruined a long time ago! β
ββ¦β¦β
As a result, seeing the representatives of several parties who were getting more and more noisy, and the other people who had not joined the battle group, they could only look at this group of high-level people of various ethnic groups who were pushing and shouting, and were about to raise their fists and beat people.
Of course, there is a little girl here who is an exception! When others are arguing, distressed, or angry, Anne is the happiest!
"Please be quiet! While you're noisy, Sauron's power is growing! β
"Shut up...... There is no point in you doing this......"
"Nope! I definitely don't trust any of you anyway! The Lord of the Rings should be given to us! β
"That's right! The Lord of the Rings should be kept by us humans! It used to belong to us humans! β
ββ¦β¦β
"No one can escape, you will all be destroyed......"
"Alas......"
Right now, everyone except for the hobbit, a certain unscrupulous little girl, and the elven king Elon, who has a headache and is holding his forehead crooked on the chair with one hand and nothing to do, everyone has been swept up.
Originally, they were just arguing about who was responsible for bringing the ring to Mount Doom, but arguing and arguing turned into who would keep and own the ring?!
