Chapter 161: The Aftermath

"It's only 1,000 points, which is a bit less."

Presumably because Sauron died too easily?

In the two transactions, Bai Ye only got a total of 1,000 power points, which can be said to be very small in comparison.

"It's disappointing that you're still a boss." Bai Ye looked at the embers under his feet and shook his head.

But Sauron's death doesn't mean it's over.

Don't forget, Saruman also has the One Ring.

Gandalf and the others still have a battle to fight.

Of course, this battle is obviously not difficult anymore.

Saruman was "beaten" and defeated by Gandalf and others, and the power of the One Ring was taken away.

However, Gandalf did not choose to enslave Saruman, but only sealed all his power completely.

made this Maia an old man who looked like him.

When the time comes, Isinger will go to Eisinger again, lock him up, and it will be all over.

On the battlefield outside the Black Gate, because of the disappearance of the Eye of Sauron and the death of Sauron, the brave battle of the orc army just now suddenly turned into a return to the light.

In the end, he was completely strangled by the coalition forces.

And on the side of the coalition forces, the losses were also extremely heavy.

There is no way to recover without decades or even hundreds of years of recuperation.

At this point, the "War of the Rings" has officially come to an end.

The Dinesser father and son were enslaved by Sauron and became beings similar to the Ringwraith, so it was naturally impossible for them to continue to rule Gondor.

Aragon became the new king of Gondor.

Continuing to maintain an alliance with Rohan, or rather, by fighting side by side, the alliance is stronger in all respects.

And Gandalf, they have the most important thing left to do.

Destroy all the One Rings.

Unlike Sauron, who poured most of his power, and even his life, into the One Ring.

Gandalf: The abandonment and destruction of the One Ring that belonged to them did not have much effect on them.

At most, a little weakness for a while.

And the so-called "weakness" is just a "feeling of weakness" without the kick effect of the Ring.

It's not much of a problem to get used to it a little.

The nine Ringwraiths, the father and son of Dynethor II, were all removed from their rings by Gandalf, and were able to truly die and be liberated.

Aragon was officially enthroned in the White City, and Gondor was once again under royal rule.

Gandalf, on the other hand, took a large number of rings and came to the edge of Mount Doom alone.

At this time, he had reverted to the dress of a wizard, but his head was still bare, and there was a vague sense of fierceness.

In his right hand he held a cloth bag containing nine human rings and eight supreme rings.

Looking at the magma that was surging under his feet from time to time, because of the thick smoke, Gandalf threw the cloth bag in his hand.

Except for the surviving elven three rings, there should be no magic rings in Middle-earth from now on.

The dwarven rings are long gone.

And the elves, in the near future, they will also leave Middle-earth.

In this way, Middle-earth has truly entered the "Age of Undisciplined"?

Gandalf, who turned to leave, didn't see a vague humanoid black mist in the billowing smoke.

When the bag fell, the humanoid black mist seemed to make a movement to raise its head, and the cloth bag containing a total of seventeen rings disappeared.

Didn't really fall into the Doomsday Volcano.

After a few more moments, Gandalf's distant figure vanished, and the humanoid black mist slowly rose and left the crater.

High in the sky, among the clouds, a black Bat fighter hovered.

White Night "sits" into the fighter plane and returns to its normal form.

I took the bag out of my pocket, opened it, and poured out all the rings inside.

Nine human rings, eight One Rings, one no less.

Coupled with the Supreme Ring in Bai Ye's hand, there are a total of eighteen rings.

"Let's go." White Night said, "Let's go to the Charles and meet Talion first. ”

Charles, the abode of the White Night, but Talion is no longer there.

White Night only found Talion's letter - or suicide note - on the table.

It was originally a vengeful demon, and after Sauron's death, the meaning of "living" can also be said to be non-existent.

The choice between Talion and Celebrimbon is complete liberation and peace.

"Really, I didn't even say hello." Bai Ye put away the farewell letter.

It contains extremely detailed methods for forging the One Ring.

If there is another craftsman who is no less skilled than Celebribron, with enough raw materials and this forging method, it is possible to reforge the One Ring.

Walking out of the dwelling and coming to the "Mine Area", Bai Ye packed all the rare metals left nearby into his personal space.

Of course, there are rare metals or something, there must be others.

But those are going a little farther away, or deeper underground.

With the average level of Middle-earth, it is already difficult to continue to dig deeper.

I'll take it when I see it in the white night, and dig a little more if you need it in the future.

"Let's go, Rohan and Gondor, and two more deals." White Night said to Nero.

Rohan, inside a secret room in the royal palace.

Some light filtered through the window, casting a dappled circle of light in the dimly lit room.

But it didn't make the room look any brighter.

Iomo sat at the table and looked at the small box in front of him.

Opposite was the seated White Night, and the standing Nero.

With a soft sigh, Iomo put the small box away.

Bai Ye smiled, and the small box contained a Supreme Ring.

But the code, unknown even to Iomo, had been put into the deepest recesses of Rohan's treasury by White Night.

Iomo won't look at it, she won't open it, and the little box will be put in it as well.

It won't be used until Rohan is really in crisis.

Iomo intended to make this order something akin to the "ancestral teachings" of the Rohan royal family.

Make the One Ring a last resort to save Rohan - not a conventional weapon.

"Remember to keep it a secret." Iomo said to the white night.

"Even if it's only 2,000 points, it's still a transaction, and since it's a transaction, of course I'll keep it a secret." Bai Ye said.

It wasn't that Iomo bought the ring back from Bai Ye, but after everyone discussed and unanimously decided to destroy the ring, he quietly found Bai Ye.

I made this "get the ring back" deal with him.

Coincidentally, Aragorn also found White Night and offered him a deal.

Neither of them really gave up their One Ring.

After all, they are the kings of the two countries, and they can ensure that they will remain allies during their reign.

But what about when they die, can their children do the same?

So, the two coincidentally left the One Ring as their hole cards.

In two transactions, Bai Ye can get a total of 4400 power points.

It's not much, but it's a pretty easy job, so why not?

From Rohan to Gondor, Aragorn also sealed the box containing the ring and the code it had opened.

As a very ethical businessman, White Night will certainly follow the terms of the deal.

Didn't tell any of them that there was anyone else who had the ring.

If one day, the descendants of the two of them, someone violates the "ancestral teachings" or something, and plans to use the Lord of the Rings to do something to their former allies, then the situation must be very interesting.

But that should be a long time later.

Both Aragorn and Iomo were powerful warriors, in good health, and able to reign for a long time.

"Do you want to go back to the Overworld?"

Nero asked.

The two have been in Middle-earth for a long time.

Fortunately, Bai Ye opened the door from time to time to return to the main world, so that no thoughts would arise.

Now all the deals have come to an end.

Gandalf also returned the magic equipment to White Night after Sauron's death.

All that's left is to come back after a while and take some rare metals and minerals with you.

There is no need to spend most of your time in Middle-earth, as before.

"I want to think about it...... Oh, and remember, take another trip to Doom Volcano. Bai Ye said.

"What are you doing there?" Nero was a little confused.

Could it be that White Night plans to destroy all the rings?

It's impossible to think about.

All the rings combined, tens of thousands of power and wealth, with the character of a profiteer in the white night, how could it be ruined?

"Do you remember when I took the power of the demon blood from you?" Bai Ye said.

"You're going to use it?" Nero asked, "But why go to Mount Doom?" ”

"I also devoured the Fire Demon at the time." Bai Ye said, "Actually, it's not very successful, but it has a little more 'fire-breathing' skills, and the absorption of heat energy has been improved to a fairly good level." ”

"So, if you're there, if there's anything, you'll recover a lot faster than in a normal place."

"This can save a couple of 'you save a thousand lives.'"

"Should I call you stingy, or praise you? Boss. Nero's voice was helpless.

"Since you said the boss, don't you understand? I'm the one who pays you. Bai Ye said with a smile.

Nero smiled, "Makes sense. ”

Doomsday Volcano.

White Night turned into a black mist and entered the "volcano", standing on a raised rock block.

Not far from your feet is lava.

The surrounding temperature is a little scary.

However, for Bai Ye, who devoured the Flame Demon and obtained some of its abilities, this temperature was nothing at all.

He could even jump straight into the lava and take a bath.

The Staff of Power appeared in front of him, and with the slight movement of the white night, the power of the demon bloodline appeared from the scepter.

Then, being held in Bai Ye's hand, the collection of power similar to the blue flame flowed into Bai Ye's palm and merged into his body.

Bai Ye closed his eyes and felt the power begin to spread through his body.

Slowly from a trickle, to a raging wave!
