"Since you're not with us, then don't talk so much nonsense."

A valian-looking dwarf with black hair and black beard said impatiently.

He is Thorin Oak Shield, grandson of Thror I and the rightful heir to the King of the Mountain.

This time, it was he and Gandalf who formulated the mission of the Lonely Mountain, deciding to steal the "Heart of the Mountain" Akon Gem from the claws of the dragon Smaug, and then use the Arkon Gem to prove his legitimacy, so as to gather the other dwarves of all veins to fight Smaug and collect the city of Erebor below.

To accomplish this, Thorin gathered twelve dwarves and commissioned Gandalf to find them a reliable snitch, Bilbo Watson Baggins, the protagonist of The Hobbit.

After hearing the news that Gandalf was leaving, Thorin was impatient, but in fact, he was the one who was most reluctant to give up on Gandalf except for Bilbo.

"yes, let's go!"

"Goodbye! Goodbye! ”

The other dwarves also muttered, and only a few of them put their reluctance on their faces.

The corners of Lin Yi's mouth curled slightly, and his gaze crossed over these duplicitous dwarves, and fell on Bilbo, who was showing his true feelings on the side.

At his waist hung a shiny dagger that was an elven weapon [Stinger] found with the enemy fencing [Granry], along with the long knife [Orc Cutter] in Thorin's hand.

Both of these weapons are the same as the Glenry, elven weapons forged by Gondolin in the First Age.

It contains the powerful elven spells of the First Age, and in addition to the characteristics of sharpening iron like clay and never decaying, it also has the ability to detect orcs and dark forces.

Once there is an orc presence around, the sword body will emit a white or blue light.

Lin Yi originally had a lot of ideas about these two weapons, but after he tricked these two weapons into his hand and put them in the inventory to look at the attributes, Lin Yi completely lost interest in them.

Although these two weapons are also powerful purple weapons after they are unencapsulated, Lin Yi is not short of purple weapons at all, and even after the sub-class [Refiner] is promoted to Lv3, he can already achieve full-scale production of purple weapons.

Compared to the [Stinger] and [Orc Cutter] with decent attributes, Lin Yi needs a weapon with a special skill buff like the [Hundred Refining Fire Cloud Hammer].

Or, a pink-tier weapon like the enemy fencing [Granry]!

["Enemy of Morgoth's army, killer of the orcs, king of Gondolin - Tegang has this sword! ”】

It's really the sword of the elf king!

The attributes of [Glenary's Greatsword], whether it is attack, functionality, or the accompanying skill buff blessing, are not comparable to [Stinging Needle] and [Orc Cutting].

Especially after injecting the sword qi, the Granary greatsword still has a certain degree of telescopic ability.

This kind of expansion and contraction ability is not very strong, at most it shrinks by 20% or stretches by 20% on the original length, but it happens that the 20% of this contraction is just enough to make it enter the range of the system's short sword.

This also leads to the strange appearance of the [type switch] entry in its properties.

In this regard, Lin Yi was naturally overjoyed.

He attached great importance to this huge/short dual-purpose pink weapon, so he didn't open the package immediately, but planned to use it to leave some legendary deeds in Middle-earth to see if he could improve his stats again.

"It's time to leave, Your Excellency Lin Yi."

Gandalf led the two horses to Lin Yi.

These are the two horses he borrowed from the nearby resident, the skin-changer Bion, but considering the destination of the two of them, Lin Yi felt that the two horses would most likely not go back.

Lin Yi took the reins with a smile on his face, and gently stroked the horse's fine fur with his right hand.

It's been a long time since I've ridden a horse, and the last time I rode a horse was when I was in the World of Ice and Fire......

Lin Yi sighed in his heart, turned over and jumped on horseback.

There was a hint of curiosity in the eyes of the little black cat on his shoulder, he had seen a human riding a horse in a square box in the living room, and knew that many humans liked to ride this thing.

Is it really that fun?

With this in mind, the little black cat jumped onto the horse's head.

"Meow! (Let's go!) ）”

The little black cat pointed forward in high spirits, but the brown horse under it was frightened by the momentum it exuded, and before it could even rise the courage to run for its life, it collapsed on all fours.

Lin Yi suddenly helplessly pinched the back of the little black cat's neck and lifted it up, and then touched the horse's head to soothe it for a while, which made the brown horse tremble and stand up from the ground, just walking in anticipation, still pacing with some anxiety.

I can't help it, I'll just ride!

Lin Yi had a headache, turned his head and glared at the little black cat, then looked at Gandalf and said.

"Sorry for the delay, let's go now!"

After speaking, Lin Yi took the lead in galloping forward.

Gandalf smiled, placed his wooden staff across his horse, and galloped with him.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded one after another, and Bilbo and the dwarves who were walking towards the Elven Gate looked back, and Bilbo finally couldn't help it, raised a hand, and shouted at Gandalf's back while waving it.

"Goodbye!"

Gandalf laughed, and his old but unusually loud voice followed.

"Goodbye! Remember, be sure to follow the path built by the elves! ”

The two figures and voices drifted apart.

"He's really gone......"

The dwarves muttered as they walked through the Elven Gate.

Bilbo took a deep breath, touched his right pocket, and turned to follow the dwarf.

Not far away.

Lin Yi calmly withdrew his gaze.

If he's not mistaken, Bilbo should have received the One Ring from Gollum by now, which is currently in his right-hand pocket.

However, Lin Yi has no plans to fight with Sauron now.

Even if there was to be a fight, it would have to wait until after Smaug.

Legendary stories have to be taken step by step from small to large, first clear the monsters, then kill the elite, and finally defeat the boss, which is the most basic law of a legendary story.

Although Smaug's strength was not necessarily much weaker than Sauron's, in the eyes of the world, Smaug's threat level was clearly ranked behind Sauron's.

Of course, this is also related to Lin Yi's jealousy of the Supreme Ring.

Before the [Granary Greatsword] was unsealed, he was not completely sure to resist the temptation of the One Ring for the time being.

Soon, two figures sprang out of the gap in the valley and galloped across the green plain.

Suddenly, the gem at the top of Gandalf's staff lit up.

Gandalf was slightly stunned, and quickly picked up the staff in his hand.

The holy light flashed, and a cold female voice came out of the Philosopher's Stone.

"Gandalf ......"

"I already feel something moving in the unseen shadows, and it's growing in strength and cunningly avoiding our sight......"

"Be wary of those necromancers, they're not as simple as we see."

As the female voice came out, Gandalf's face became more and more difficult to see.

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, his silver-white vertical pupils stared closely at the blue-white magic stone, and in a trance, he seemed to see a white figure.

The moment he saw the figure, the female voice in the Philosopher's Stone stopped abruptly.

Immediately after, a voice of surprise came out.

“…… Who's snooping on me?! ”

Gandalf was slightly stunned, and immediately looked at Lin Yi on the side.

Lin Yi showed an embarrassed smile, and his silver-white vertical pupils degraded into pitch-black eyes again.

The corners of Gandalf's mouth twitched, and he was secretly frightened by Lin Yi's peeping across thousands of miles.

He said in a solemn tone: "Don't worry, Galadriel, the one from the side has no ill will towards you, he is the greatest help I have found on this trip, continue to tell me what you perceive!" ”

The voice on the other side was silent for a moment, and then said succinctly.

"Go to the tombs in the mountains!"

"If the enemy has returned, we must know!"

After saying that, the lit magic stone quickly extinguished.

Gandalf opened his mouth, then closed it reluctantly, swallowing the unfinished words again.

Lin Yi asked suspiciously, "Where are the tombs in the mountains?" ”

Gandalf sighed helplessly, "Right at the destination of our trip—"

"High hills!"
