Chapter 398: The Lonely Mountain Project
Unfortunately, Gandalf didn't know about that particular spell either.
However, he could see that the black dragon claw base holding the True Knowing Crystal and the black cloth covering the True Knowing Crystal were ancient artifacts from the same age as the True Knowing Crystal, and there were many mysterious spells attached to them.
Coupled with Sauron's use of them to block the Truth Crystal, it should have a similar effect.
So Lin Yi unceremoniously put away the entire base and the black cloth together.
Of course, Lin Yi has never been a person who likes to eat alone, and he noticed that Gandalf seemed to be a little greedy for his spatial magic weapon, so he reached out and took out a phagosac from his inventory and threw it to Gandalf.
"Oh, take it, and it should be a reward for exchanging the knowledge of the party."
Gandalf's face was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared.
"But it's a gesture, how embarrassing is this......"
"Oh? So I'll take it back? β
ββ¦β¦β
Under Lin Yi's disdainful gaze, Gandalf took the sac with an unchanged face and studied it in front of him.
As Maiya under the command of Manway, a well-known gray-robed wizard in Middle-earth, Gandalf did still have two brushes in terms of knowledge reserves, and after just a few tests, he figured out the use of the sac devourer.
"It's actually a space magic weapon!"
With a look of surprise, Gandalf took the devouring sac in his hand and aimed it at the stone platform in front of him, and then poured magic power, and put away the stone platform in front of him, and released it, put it away, put it away, and release it......
It's so repeated, and it's a lot of fun.
Lin Yi looked at Gandalf with a happy face, and a trace of sadness appeared in his heart inexplicably.
Gandalf, or Orolin who also served Manwei himself, actually behaved so badly in front of a simple spatial magic weapon, so unseen in the world......
Alas, Maia is not easy to mix these days!
Gandalf noticed Lin Yi's sympathetic eyes, and knew that he might have shown a little too much, so he immediately coughed twice, solemnly hung the red and yellow phagosac on his waist, and then bowed slightly towards Lin Yi.
"Thank you for your generosity! I just need a portable space artifact! β
"Nothing, you deserve it." Lin Yi shook his head, immediately showed concern on his face, and asked tentatively, "Seeing that you like it so much, why don't you take a few more?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Gandalf has black lines all over his head.
Are you really treating me as a refugee?
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Excellency Lin Yi, a ...... Uh......"
"Eat the sac."
"Yes, one sac is enough for me, you should keep the rest for yourself."
"You're welcome."
Lin Yi waved his hand very boldly, not to mention that dozens of phagoagosacs of different colors fell from the air, and then were floated in the air by the gravitational protective field below.
ββ¦β¦οΌοΌβ
Looking at the huge number of sacs in front of him, Gandalf's jaw was about to drop.
ββ¦β¦ Where did you get so many space artifacts? β
"Of course I made it myself!"
ββ¦β¦β
Gandalf snapped his mouth shut.
If you don't say that, it's over!
It's still so polite that he's still there......
Gandalf unceremoniously picked among the sacs in front of him, and finally picked two gray and white sacs, which hung around his waist along with the previous sac.
Seeing that Gandalf had picked out the sac, Lin Yi waved his hand again and retracted the sac suspended in front of him into the inventory again.
"Okay, Gan, do you have any plans for the future?"
Lao Gan......
Gandalf tugged at the corners of his mouth and shook his head solemnly.
"Yes or no, Sauron already knows that we have found his traces, and we will definitely not return to Doguldu, this time we are completely shocked!"
"It's okay, then let him go back to Mo, and besides, we don't have nothing."
Thinking of the True Knowing Crystal in Lin Yi's hand, Gandalf couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Lin Yi smiled, patted Gandalf on the shoulder and said, "Since you don't have any good ideas, you might as well listen to meβhow about it, are you interested?" β
"Of course, you say ......"
"Go to Moria, let's go see the guy who drove the dwarves away!"
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
On the other side, in the dark forest.
I don't know what kind of agreement Thranduil reached with Thorin and the others, but when there was no hope of escape, Bilbo and Thorin finally agreed to the request of the elven king Thranduil, and formed a team with him to infiltrate the lonely mountain.
Thorin was on the side to provide maps and intelligence, while Thranduil was to provide resources and help.
But when the members of the squad were chosen, the two sides got into some disputes.
Thorin and the dwarves feared that the elves would covet their Arkon gems, while Thranduil believed that the dwarves would become more greedy if they entered Erebould, devouring their minds by the treasures there.
The two sides did not make concessions to each other in this regard, and quarreled endlessly.
In the end, it was Seymour who stepped forward and finalized the two candidates, him and Bilbo.
As soon as this was said, the dwarves and elves reluctantly agreed.
This is indeed the best solution at the moment, although Bilbo is in a united front with the dwarves, he is a hobbit with courage and kindness, and is far more trustworthy than the other dwarves.
Seymour is currently the only elf in the Woodland Kingdom who is not a Woodland Elf.
The most important thing is that he is also the swordsmanship disciple of His Excellency Lin Yi.
This alone gave the dwarves a little more confidence in the plan.
And so the matter was decided.
As for what happened after Thorin and the others got the Akon Gem and recovered the lonely mountain Erebo, everyone tacitly did not mention it.
But in Seymour's view, a war between dwarves and elves may be inevitable.
A day later, on a road in the northern part of the dark forest.
Bilbo Baggins stood in front of a group of dwarves with his bags on his back and said goodbye to them.
The dwarves were shackled at their feet, followed by vigilant silver-armored elven warriors, sharp arrows silently pointing at their backs.
But even so, there was no fear on the faces of these dwarves.
Thorin squeezed Bilbo's hand tightly and looked at Bilbo with a moving gaze without saying a word.
The old dwarf Bahrain and a few older dwarves on the side were also chattering, reminding them of the precautions they should take when traveling alone, as if they were looking at the juniors who were about to travel.
At this moment, there was a loud and rhythmic sound of footsteps.
Bilbo and the dwarves turned their heads and saw an entire elven army of golden-armored warriors.
The one at the head was dressed in silver armor, wearing a silver crown ornament, and his face was handsome, and under him rode a tall white bighorn deer, and his pale hair poured down like a waterfall, shining with a strange luster in the sun.
Seymour, dressed in white, rode behind on a white horse, his gaze sweeping over the neatly dressed elven warriors.
Woodland elves are best starlight, so the warriors' armor is brilliant gold.
But the brightest thing in the night sky was not the starlight, but the holy silver glow of the moon, so the armor of the royal guards and the elven king Thranduil was shining silver.
After learning this, Seymour couldn't help but complain in his heart, the astronomical knowledge of this group of illiterate elves was really rotten, and they actually thought that the moon could rule the stars......
Suddenly, the bighorn deer at the front stopped.
Seymour rode on the white horse and came to the Elven King Thrandil.
"If something happens to you in the lonely mountain, the elven army of the Woodland Kingdom will pour out, even if you fight to the death, you will definitely kill Smaug to avenge you!"
Thranduil looked deeply at Seymour in front of him.
"Seymour, I'm counting on you."
"I understand, Your Majesty Thrandil!"
Seymour said with a solemn expression.
After so many days together, Seymour already got a general idea of Thrandil's character, and since Thranduil had already said so, he would definitely do it.
If something really happened to him, Thranduil would really send troops to fight for himself until he was a soldier.
With the worrying number of elves in the woodland kingdom and the outrageously low fertility rate, Seymour really couldn't bear to let these elves who could have lived forever lose their lives for himself.
So forget it, a teacher will come and save me!" β
Seymour thought to himself, glad he hadn't used his summoning skill rashly.
Legolas rode out on a white horse and came to Seymour's side.
"I will take a team of elven warriors to escort you to Changhu Town under the lonely mountain, which is the territory of humans, but the woodland elves also have some face there, but once you get out of Changhu Town, the rest of the way will depend on you."
With that, Legolas paused, approached Seymour and whispered.
"If you can't do anything, you can quickly withdraw from the lonely mountain, it doesn't matter if you can't get the necklace or anything, as long as you're alive......"
Seymour's heart warmed when he heard this, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Don't worry, I'm not that stubborn."
"That's good."
Legolas smiled reassuringly.
Soon, Bilbo had already said goodbye, rode a deer that had been prepared long ago, and under the watchful eyes of the dwarves and elves, he and Seymour marched in the direction of Long Lake.
