Chapter 149: Looks Professional
"Communication basically depends on roaring" Bai Yemu sent Gandalf and the others away.
Frodo glared at White Night before leaving, as if blaming him for selling Gandalf something bizarre.
As a result, Gandalf became what he is now.
Of course, Frodo obviously couldn't have known.
If it weren't for the White Nights, Gandalf's fate would have been "death"βa period of death, to be precise.
According to the original development, there was no Nero as a new force to join.
In order to block the Fire Demon, Gandalf will directly smash a bridge above the abyss in the mine, causing the Fire Demon to fall.
However, at a critical moment, Gandalf was also pulled into the abyss.
The two of them kept falling, kept fighting, and stepped into the endless staircase that could go straight to the highest peak of the Misty Mountain Range.
On a certain mountain, Gandalf defeated the Fire Demon and died too much of his own.
Later, he was resurrected by a powerful, god-like being outside the universe and replaced Saruman as the white-robed Gandalf.
Now, naturally, Gandalf's fortunes have taken a huge turn.
As for the impact on the entire Middle-earth continent, White Night is not very clear.
In short, Berserker Gandalf must be very good at fighting.
Gandalf was clearly quite happy with his new career.
Customer satisfaction is Bai Ye's greatest pursuit as a businessman - probably.
Gandalf and Nero left, and Bai Ye took out the crystal ball of true knowledge, pressed it on it, and rubbed it gently.
Soon, the Crystal Ball of True Knowledge emitted a faint glow.
"Is Saruman here? I'm your boss's father, White Night. White Night greeted Saruman, the owner of another Orb of True Knowledge.
"Who?"
Saruman was stunned, stood up suddenly, and only reacted after a moment, "White Night? β
The merchant who broke through the sky to the tower of Isengh and left behind a message that kept him awake at night!
"Yes, it's me." Bai Ye said.
"Boss, father?" Saruman frowned, his mind full of question marks.
But he was a smart guy and reacted quickly.
The person Bai Ye said was Sauron, and the other party actually used the True Knowledge Crystal Ball to contact him, so this merchant ran to Mordor?
And what about that father?
Saruman is almost a hundred thousand whys.
Then Saruman said, "I'm not Sauron's little brother, I'm just working with him. β
There are too many questions, so simply don't ask.
Explain that his position is more important, Saruman will never be a slave!
"Oh? Is it? Bai Ye was a little surprised, "I thought you were his little brother." β
"Humph!"
Saruman sneered disdainfully, "He did affect me a little, but that's because I didn't care, Sauron just asked me to be sure of what was going on in my heart." β
Saruman did "communicate" with Sauron because of his use of the Orb of True Knowledge.
It was also affected by the evil power of Sauron.
But he was fundamentally different from the Ringwraiths who were enslaved by Sauron's control.
His fall was more out of his own thoughtsβpride, greed for the Ring, or jealousy of Gandalf.
At best, Sauron helped Saruman open the door to a new world.
Saruman is also not a complete Sauron minion, and the relationship between the two tends to be more equal.
"That's amazing."
White Night said, "Then why don't you know how to make the Ring?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Saruman was a little speechless when asked by the white night, what does this have to do with whether he can forge the ring or not?
However, this reminded Saruman that it was possible for White Night to trade with Sauron?
"You made a deal with Sauron? We haven't waited fifteen days yet......" Saruman's tone suddenly became anxious, "And there's no way Sauron will give you the Ring forging technique!" β
White Night said, "Trade with Sauron? No. I just had a few chats with him to confirm the father-son relationship. β
"Then you use the Crystal Sphere of True Knowledge...... Saruman asked.
There are only a few True Knowing Geospheres in Middle-earth, and it is not easy to get them.
"Bought from Gondor." Bai Ye said, his tone relaxed as if he had gone to the store downstairs to buy a pack of instant noodles.
Saruman was speechless for a moment, and then asked, "You didn't leak the news, did you, didn't you buy it with that news?" β
How can you buy such a precious thing as a crystal ball without paying a price?
"It's been fifteen days, and the time hasn't come yet. What are you nervous about? Bai Ye said, "I'm just here to ask, how is your progress, have you found someone?" β
"There's a clue, I still need time." Saruman said, "These few days those damn treants have been so crazy that they've dared to harass Isengard, saying that my experiments have affected them. β
"Impact?" Bai Ye asked with some curiosity, "What effect?" β
"I don't know." Saruman, who was harassed by the Treants, apparently didn't care how he affected the Treants, "It seems to indicate that their clan has some strange illness-"
"Oh, the disease?" Bai Ye suddenly saw the opportunity to trade, "Then you look for it, remember that time is running out, so be it." With that, he severed contact with Saruman.
The corners of Saruman's mouth twitched twice as he "hung up".
Is White Night just here to show off his father-son relationship with Sauron?
Of course not.
Bai Ye looked for Saruman, first, to test the "communication effect" of the True Crystal Ball, but to ask a little about the progress of this guy's search for someone.
Showing off the father-son relationship is just a passing.
"Let me see ......"
Bai Ye took out a detailed map of the vicinity of Isenger and looked at it carefully.
In the vicinity of Isengard, there are indeed large areas of dense forests, inhabited by the special creatures of this world, the Treants.
The Treants are the oldest race in Middle-earth.
They rarely get involved in the strife of Middle-earth, similar to the hobbits who don't care much about the outside world.
After looking at the map for a while, White Night "took out" the Bat fighter and began to fly to the forest where the Treants were.
Such a race, starting to harass Isenger, will certainly not be untargeted.
Regardless of whether Saruman actually affected the Treants, the Treants must be in trouble.
Since there is trouble, there is a good trading opportunity.
Such a good opportunity, how could Bai Ye let it go so easily?
With a high-speed fighter plane, it didn't take much time, Bai Ye came to the destination, put away the fighter, and free-fell into the forest.
White Night swept around, but didn't see any tree people.
In fact, there is not much difference in appearance between the Tree Man and the ordinary tree, except that the Tree Man can walk.
Since you can't find the tree man, let the tree man come to you.
A magnificent "flame" ignited on Bai Ye's finger and lit it on the big tree next to it.
Soon, the tree was on fire, and smoke billowed from the forest.
White Night believed that if a tree man saw it, it would soon appear.
For the tree people, the forest is their home, and if someone sets fire to their house, the tree people will not ask about the world, and it is impossible for them not to come out.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a rustling sound to come from all directions.
"There were." White Night stretched out his hand and reabsorbed the flames burning in the tree.
He already has the ability to absorb "energy" such as heat and radiation from the environment.
These flames are generated by the power of the white night itself, and if you want to absorb it back, it is naturally very easy.
It's just that there is no way to recover this charred tree.
"Human!"
A large tree appeared in front of the white night, and a sound like thunder was heard.
The anger hidden in it can be heard.
At the same time, in the three directions of Bai Ye's left, right, and back, several tree people also appeared, completely surrounding Bai Ye.
Obviously, these treemen can't have any good feelings for the person who set the fire to White Night.
"Deal?"
However, in the face of this situation, Bai Ye was obviously prepared, and a trade invitation allowed him to enter a friendly and harmonious transaction negotiation state with the "dominant tree man" in front of him.
"Deal?" The Treant said, "What are you going to trade?" β
"I'm a conscientious merchant who travels around, and I heard from other places that you tree people are in trouble, so I came here to see if there are any opportunities for trading, maybe I can handle your troubles." Bai Ye said, "All you need is a small reward." β
"Can you solve our troubles?" The Treant asked.
"I can't guarantee until I figure out the situation." Bai Ye said, "At least you have to let me know the situation in detail first. β
"Okay." The tree man agreed, and simply said, "I hope you can have a good solution." β
White Night sat on the branches of the treemen, who were brought into the depths of the forest.
"This is it, human merchant, my companion is sick." Treant said.
This place has a clearing that is obviously some distance from the other plants.
In the clearing were a few large trees that were not particularly large.
It looks like the leaves are withered and yellow, and it looks like a decay.
Bai Ye stepped forward and circled around these big trees a few times, looking very professional.
Then, he took out a mobile phone, turned on the photo mode, and took nearly a hundred photos in a row.
From the roots, trunks, branches, and leaves, not a single detail has been missed.
Then, Bai Ye turned on the camera mode again, and recorded all the places of these big trees, and some strange-looking "lesion" locations into the mobile phone.
The tree people who had the feeling of the white night did not speak, and quietly watched the white night pretend.
This businessman looks very powerful!
Maybe we can really solve the problem of these treants and save them.
"Alright." Bai Ye put away his phone and said.
"Resolved?" The leading treeman who came with the white night was a little surprised.
"Of course not." Bai Ye said, "If you want to solve the problem, you must first understand the problem, what I am doing now is to understand the problem, and then I have to analyze and study it in detail." β
He looked at the time on his phone and continued: "In about three hours, I will leave for a trip, and I will be back in a short time, and I can let you know if the problem can be solved at that time." β
