Chapter 768: Bad News
"Mighty Dragon Knight, the Woodland Elves are forever grateful for your kindness." Thrandui bowed slightly, and applied the highest elven courtesy to Ho Evil.
Behind him, Legolas, with a sad look on his face, did the same.
Although they are still resentful of He Xie killing Saruman, the great enemy is current, and he has been saved by He Xie twice, no matter what kind of differences and contradictions there are, they can let go.
What's more, now they no longer have to doubt He Xie's position at all.
He Xie looked at them and found that the female elf was missing, and knew that it must be more than lucky.
He looked at Thrandui and asked, "Lord of the Dark Forest, King of the Woodland Kingdom, why hasn't your army come to your aid until now?" Have they forsaken their king? ”
Thranduy was silent, in fact he had guessed some truth.
There is only one reason for Galadriel to sit back and watch him in danger, and his men will not move.
"This orc attack was sudden," Thrandui said slowly, "We don't know if they only attacked the Lonely Mountain, and perhaps my kingdom is also being attacked by orcs at this moment. ”
He Xie didn't think of this possibility, after all, Assog never appeared, but he vaguely felt that things might not be so simple. Not to mention......
Despite Thranduil's good disguise, he was aware of the ambiguity in his words.
"Whew!"
In the distance, Smaug's cry could be heard again, as it pursued the orc army that had made its second assault on Long Lake, and Bard was watching nervously.
"Sauron didn't get what he wanted, and he won't give up." He Xie stared into Thranduyi's eyes, "He won't just leave it at that. How are you going to deal with the onslaught of darkness? ”
Thrandui opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Legolas on the side had already stepped forward and said loudly: "Of course, it will be a bloody battle to the end!" ”
His face was filled with grief and determination, and it was clear that the young elf's heart was filled with hatred from the death of Toreel.
"Dragon Knight Ho, I apologize to you for my previous actions!" Legolas looked at Ho Xie, "What you have done is a testament to your position and compassion. Darkness is our common enemy, and I hope for your forgiveness as we fight side by side to slay these filthy and evil creatures of darkness! ”
Thranduyi's eyes flashed slightly, and he said: "Dragon knight, the enemy has temporarily retreated, while they have not yet made a comeback, I will immediately rush back to the Green Forest, the Northern Continent should not be a place where orcs are raging, our purpose is the same." ”
There are no commitments, no statements, and still vague words.
Although He Xie still didn't know that Queen Galadriel had wanted to support him, but finally gave up, Thranduil's attitude had made him extremely vigilant.
He looked at the other party deeply and said slowly: "I hope so." ”
"Thank you again from the bottom of my heart." Thrandui bowed slightly.
He Xie nodded, turned around with his hand, his face was expressionless, and the excitement and blood in his heart that were originally brought by victory and fighting had gradually cooled down at this moment, turning into a cold ball.
At the edge of the dark forest, the elves, who were excited by Thranduil's salvation, had a second surprise.
King Elon arrives with reinforcements from Rivendell.
Rows of brightly armored elven warriors took the place of the weary elves of the Dark Forest, all cheering, singing beautiful ballads, each with a heartfelt smile on their faces.
"Queen, it's okay, I'm not late." King Elon walked up to Galadriel and bowed slightly, but his face was different from that of the other elves, and he was very solemn.
"I've brought some bad news," he said, looking at Galadriel, "the orc army of Dolgoth, crossed the Eton Moors and went to Moria. ”
"Moria?" Galadriel frowned, then his face changed dramatically, and he thought of a possibility, and looked at King Elon in disbelief.
King Elon nodded slowly at her, his face heavy, "As you think, they are there for the sleeping fire demon. ”
It took Galadriel a long time to digest the shocking news.
"What did you just say, how many bad news?" She looked at King Elrond.
"Yes, Queen." "Mordor's army of Doom has been dispatched, Sauron's most loyal servant, Gosmog, has gone into battle himself, he has captured the leaderless Issinger, the Denlanders have taken refuge in them, the army is marching towards Lohan, and war will break out by tomorrow afternoon at the latest." ”
Galadriel was moved again, and said for a long time: "This is really a ...... Regrettable and desperate news......"
"I have to tell you with regret, my queen, the bad news is not over yet." King Elon sighed, "The mammoth legions of the Haradelines are marching north, and the Umbar pirates are blocking the only pass for Gondor and Rohan. To make matters worse, the dark creatures of the Eaton Moors are endlessly harassing Rivendell, so I have only brought 20,000 warriors with me this time. ”
"Queen, Sauron has launched an all-out war! Before I left Rivinedell, I received word from Gandalf that the situation had deteriorated and that the human kingdom was completely unprepared, and that he had to preside over the war in the South. ”
"Gandalf won't be coming?" Galadriel muttered.
"Gandalf has one more thing for me to convey to you, Queen." King Elon bowed slightly and continued, "He said that he hopes that you will agree to let the elven army of Roslorian gallop to the south and aid humanity, because it is the main battlefield of Middle-earth, and it is related to the hope of all the righteous people, and he wants you to rush back to Roslorian as soon as possible to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the weakness." ”
"Then the northern ......," Galadriel subconsciously looked in the direction of the lonely mountain.
"I will defend the north with Thranduil." King Elon sighed, "Gandalf thinks that the Dragon Knight can be trusted, with his help, and the dwarves of the Iron Hills will come to support, the war in the north will not be too tense, in fact, he is right, his wisdom is as good as ever." ”
Isengard had always been ruled by the white-robed wizard Saruman before this, but the army from Mordor had taken over the forest without a single soldier, and the defection of the Denglanders was more premeditated, which was enough to show that Saruman had a problem for a long time.
In this way, the biggest contradiction between He Xie and Justice and Order naturally does not exist, and the only thing that makes King Ailong haunted and unable to sleep is the Supreme Demon Ring, so his mood at the moment is very complicated.
