Chapter Eighty-Four: The Moria Pit

For most people, the most memorable scene in "The Lord of the Rings" should be Gandalf vs. Firedemons.

Even viewers who haven't watched the entire "Lord of the Rings" movie have many who know the plot of this scene.

When the Fellowship of the Ring was walking through the Snowy Mountains of Karranras, Saruman discovered their whereabouts with the help of Sauron's power, and Saruman used his great mana to create a blood avalanche to interfere with everyone, and finally the Fellowship of the Ring had to give up the idea of walking the Snowy Mountain.

There were two paths in front of them, one was the Rohan Pass proposed by Boromo, and the other was the Moria Mine proposed by the dwarf Golden Bolt, where his cousin Balin lived.

In the end, Frodo decided to go through the Moriath Pit.

After entering the pit, everyone found that there were no dwarves left in the Moria's pit, and Pipin caused a stir and attracted the pursuit of the underground enemy.

After the next few skirmishes, it was the familiar Gandalf vs. Firefiend.

The filming location of this scene was still arranged by Lin Haoran, in a large abandoned mine pit in the eastern part of the empire.

Fang Yan went to see this pit once during the filming break, and it did bear some resemblance to the Moriath Mine.

As for the Flame Demon, Fang Yan's original plan was to let the Tiangong Society create a puppet similar to the Flame Demon, but later the old man Zuo Cheng introduced a friend of his, who was a member of the Giant Rock Clan, a race rarely seen in the Empire.

The literal translation of the Boulder is Stone People, but they are not an offshoot of humanity, and the Boulder are not flesh and blood: they are made of stone all over their bodies.

This kind of elemental race is not common in the mainland, but Old Man Zuo met such a giant rock clan by chance when he was young.

Under the recommendation of Old Man Zuo, Fang Yan saw this behemoth with a height of nearly five zhang.

After some conversation, Fang Yan hired this real special actor at the price of 20 second-grade spirit stones.

Now the crew is filming a scene of Saruman's shot in an uninhabited snow-capped mountain in the north of the empire.

The scene of "The Lord of the Rings" is a scene of two old men facing each other in the air, Saruman uses a spell to cause an avalanche in the snowy mountain, and finally the Fellowship of the Ring team temporarily reroutes.

The dialect was changed here, and Old Man Bai gave a solo show.

This is also the first time that Fang Yan has seen the strength of Old Man Bai.

As Old Man Bai's two spells fell, two snowmen with a height of more than 100 zhang stood in front of everyone.

Jumping and looking at these two behemoths in a daze, his little head quickly judged a huge gap in strength compared to me: I am not as big as these two's eyes.

So he jumped and swooped directly to the heel of the dialect, and buried his head directly in the hem of the dialect's trousers.

Dialect: "......"

This scene was indeed very shocking, only Zuo Chen pursed his lips disdainfully, "A mere eighth-order snow guard summoning made him so embarrassed." ”

Look at what this said, "just eight orders".

Wenren Yuwei poked Fang Yan with her elbow in some surprise, "This old man Bai usually doesn't look serious, but his strength is not weak, what kind of cultivation is he?" ”

"I don't know." Fang Yan shook his head, this was not his perfunctory Yuwei, he really didn't know what the mana of the two old men was.

"Aren't you the little princess of the Wenren family? Why, you don't know him? ”

"I've only heard that there is such a vice president of the Mage Association before, and I don't know how strong it is, but this is the first time I've seen a real person." Wenren Yuwei's expression was a little solemn, "I once saw an eighth-order mage in the Northern Snow Plain casting the Snow Guard Summon, and that was half as low as this. ”

Listening to the words of Yuwei, Fang Yan had a feeling of knowing the real * thighs for the first time.

But before Fang Yan could finish sighing, a gust of wind mixed with heavy snow slammed in, drowning everyone.

When everyone crawled out of the snowdrift with a disgraced face, they saw Old Man Bai standing embarrassedly in front of everyone and touching his head.

"Damn, what's going on?" The dialect is a little confusing.

"Is there too much movement and an avalanche?" President Mu shook the snow on his body, fortunately, everyone had cultivation, and no one had an accident.

Old man Bai's old face turned red: "Maybe the weather is too cold, and the snowman has no clothes...... Cold, sneezing. ”

Everyone: "......" This is the otherworldly version of the legendary Fire Man who was burned to death?

was pitted by the snowman he summoned, and the old man Bai didn't have the idea of talking anymore, and urged Fang Yan to take this scene for the next shot.

So after filming this scene, the crew was directly teleported to the filming location of the Moriath Mine.

In "The Lord of the Rings", everyone encountered a water monster outside the door before entering the mine, and Lin Haoran directly caught a third-order octopus from the clear stream of Shuimu Academy to play it.

In the original book, the water monster ran away after beating everyone, but this octopus didn't seem to know what it was, and after taking a few spells, it still showed its teeth and claws in front of everyone.

The consequence of not having the strength to pretend to be X is that everyone had a beautiful grilled octopus feast before the filming started.

The scene in Moria's Mines is by far the most filmed by Dialect, with tens of thousands of orcs dressed as goblin trolls recruited by Dialect in the labor market.

These orcs all left the tribe in groups to come to the imperial capital coolies, and their strength is not high, only brute strength.

In order to support the wives and children of the tribe, they went to the imperial capital in groups to take over some projects such as digging ditches and walls, after all, large-scale blasting spells were not allowed in the imperial capital.

After learning that the dialect would use a large number of orcs, several leaders of the orc labor reached an employment agreement with the dialect, and how many orcs needed to use the dialect contacted them directly, and the price was arranged on the same day, and the price was discounted.

These laborers are frighteningly cheap, and the average hire of a half-orc only requires a few spirit stones a day, even if you count the cost of eating, it is terrifyingly low.

In the mines, the dozens of orcs who participated in the filming of the first act in the charr were seriously explaining the details of the shooting to their companions, and the dialect gave these dozens of orcs a relatively high employment price, and let them be responsible for the order management of the group performance.

There's no acting in the battle in the Mines of Moria, and the focus of this scene is a sense of compactness, where these orcs must flood out in a very short period of time, creating an endless sense of atmosphere.

After some twists and turns, I finally waited for the core plot of this scene: Gandalf vs. Firedemon.

In this scene, Gandalf is no longer the old man with a slippery head, but a truly responsible wizard who activates the power of Naya, the Ring of Fire, and dies with the fire demon.
