CP140 Distant Dolgoto
Dorgodo. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It was originally home to the Wood Elves, and was formerly known as Amun Lance. In the Sinda language used by the elves, the name means a hill overgrown with grass.
Since it was occupied by Sauron's forces, there has been no more tranquility and relaxation here.
The grassy hills have turned into barren dirt bags, and the branches of the trees that used to flourish are left. The singing orioles and nightingales have long since disappeared, and only crows and vultures are still hovering in the sky.
Everything is filled with a dark and gloomy feeling.
Under a large dilapidated tree, two dirty homeless men were resting. One of them had a strip of cloth tightly tied around his right leg, as if he couldn't bend it at will, and it seemed that he was injured a little.
"Ridagast, are you alright?"
"It's going to hold on." The grinning pant sound was mixed with the answer, and it sounded like a very painful look: "Damn, I knew there was a problem here~." ”
The two were none other than Gandalf and Redagast, who had come to Dorgódo to find out the news.
Before he came, he had already gathered some information and knew that there were traces of the undead here, and through guessing, he had already guessed that this might be a sign of Sauron's comeback.
And when he brought Gandalf with him, he realized that it wasn't just that simple. It turned out that the nine rings under Sauron's command had come here again and secretly established a stronghold here. Although they did not have accurate information directly, through the observation of these dark creatures, he and Gandalf had already come to the conclusion that it would not be long before the well-prepared Ringwraiths would once again attack the other forces of Middle-earth, bringing war and death to the continent once again.
Already burdened with the heavy responsibility of fighting against Sauron, Radagast and Gandalf naturally would not turn a blind eye to such a situation.
However, considering that there were only two people on his side, and the combat power that the other party had already exposed, just on par with himself, had already reached as many as nine (nine ring spirits), so the two did not take the liberty of making a move, but summed it up, preparing to return to the Holy White Council first, and while reporting the news to Saruman, they also issued a message to gather more combat power to confront the dark forces of Dolgotor head-on.
The idea was correct, but just as they were about to leave, the whereabouts of the two were discovered by a ring spirit.
Although he became Sauron's subordinates, it did not mean that the Ringwraiths had lost their wisdom - what Sauron wanted at that time was not a puppet without sanity, but wanted to achieve his goal of dominating the whole world by controlling these people. In other words, although the Ringwraiths are no longer kings, magicians, or warriors, they still retain their wisdom as human heroes.
Dolgodo has been polluted by darkness, and it is the most suitable home field for the Ringwraith to show its strength, on the contrary, Gandalf and Redagaste's strength will be suppressed here. Under such a premise, how could the spirits not use such convenient conditions?
As a result, Gandalf and Redagast were hunted down by the Ringwraiths.
The elite, who was originally a powerful one, has been transformed by the Lord of the Rings, and has grown in strength. To put it mildly, the individual strength of the Ringwraiths is not much worse than that of Redagast and Gandalf.
What's more, they rarely act alone, and every night, their strength improves.
After being hunted down by the Ringwraiths for a few days, Redagast was finally wounded in the thigh by the leading Ringwraith, the original Witch King of Angmar, in a battle.
"Hiss~." In order to facilitate their activities in Middle-earth, the Maias have condensed their bodies. Physically, although it is stronger than the indigenous humans of Middle-earth, it is not ridiculously strong. No, accidentally touching the wound, Ruidagast still gasped involuntarily.
"Come on, have a drink, maybe it will make you feel better." Gandalf untied the skin from his waist and handed over what little water was left.
When he was hunted down, he didn't have any extra energy to worry about other trivial matters, and as time passed, his own supplies became less and less. Faced with such a situation, Gandalf had already thought of Chu Xiaobai more than once - why didn't I have the same personal space as him?
Of course, he just wanted a portable space, and Gandalf didn't have the idea of 'it would be nice if Chu Xiaobai was there'. In his opinion, Chu Xiaobai's strength may be a little stronger than his own, but it is not much higher, even if he is also present, he still can't deal with so many ring spirits chasing and killing at the same time.
"Forget it, you can keep it." Shaking his head, Redagast didn't take the skin that Gandalf handed out. Gritting his teeth, he moved himself back against the trunk of the dead tree, "Gandalf, I think we need to replan. ”
"Isn't it ......?" Glancing at Ridagast and noticing the resoluteness in his expression, Gandalf's expression moved, as if he had thought of something.
"That's right." Ridagast nodded: "You go first, leave me alone." ”
"No, Ridagast, I can't do that~." Although he had expected it, Gandalf couldn't help but show a sad expression when he heard the other party say it himself.
"You have to do that." Ridagast said in a deep voice, "You know, if you have to take me, neither of us can escape. And now, we have to get the word out there so that others are ready to respond. ”
"But ......." He also knew in his heart that Ridagast's arrangement was the best choice, but emotionally, Gandalf still didn't want to give up his comrades like this.
"Gandalf, we are all Maia. Even if you die, it's just a return to the roots, and there will definitely be a chance to be reborn after that, so you don't need to worry about me, right? In order to convince Gandalf, Redagast came up with another reason.
Having lived for thousands of years, Gandalf has also seen some of his companions who have experienced death and then rebirth. From this point of view, Ridagast's words are indeed correct, and it seems that there is really no need to worry about his death.
However, the current situation is slightly different - after all, he is being hunted by the Ringwraith, and no one knows what the Ringwrath will do to Ridagast. If you kill him directly, that's fine, just like he said, he will be reborn sooner or later. However, if the Ringwraiths did not kill Ridagast directly, but tied him up in front of Sauron, if Sauron had other means to contaminate Radagast as well, the consequences would be really serious.
"No, I'm sticking to my ideas. I mean, we have to get out of here together. "Although Redagast is not as good as Sauron, he is also a Maia after all, and if he is polluted, he will add an extremely powerful force to the dark forces. You can't take that risk anyway,Gandalf shook his head again.
Both sides were very firm, but Gandalf couldn't say the words 'I'm afraid you'll be polluted by Sauron' directly, so he couldn't convince Ridagast right away, and the argument dragged on a lot.
Or in the position of being hunted down, any little time wasted will multiply the danger.
Just as the two were at a stalemate, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and it was obvious that it was the ringwraiths who were catching up with them.
"It seems that our argument is meaningless, old man, help me~." Gandalf's persistence made Ridagast very happy, but in turn, it was Gandalf's persistence that the possibility of a successful escape was further reduced. Faced with such a situation, Ridagast could only smile helplessly.
"Let's deal with the situation in front of us first." Gandalf was also smiling bitterly, he didn't expect the Ringwraith to catch up so quickly.
In the blink of an eye, several rings with their bodies under their cloaks had come to the eyes of the two of them.
I couldn't see the face of the ringing spirit, only the two red lights under the cloak, which were the eyes of the ringing spirit. In the darkness, their strength grows stronger, and every time they do, an evil red glow comes out of their eyes.
The two sides are mortal enemies, and the Ringwraiths will not be at odds with Gandalf, and it is even more unlikely that they will jump off their horses and shoot a mouth cannon first.
Instead of reining in the reins, he picked up his speed and swung his sword at Gandalf and Rydagast.
Although they no longer felt spared, Gandalf and Redagast did not sit still. When he shouted first, Ruida Gast did it first, only to see him stretch out his palm, aimed at the ring spirit who rushed to the front, and he didn't know what to say in his mouth, and then, a few vines suddenly appeared under the feet of the war horse ridden by the ring spirit, and they tripped the horse's hooves.
With a neigh, the black war horse was driven by inertia and fell heavily to the ground. The Ringwraith on his horse was also thrown far away, and the armor hidden under the cloak slammed into the rocks with a dull thud.
If it were a human being, if it was hit like this, it would be crippled if it didn't die. But for the Ringwraiths, who had been corrupted by the power of the Ring, the impact was nothing at all. After only a few seconds of silence, the Ringwraith had already risen from the ground and once again brandished his sword and charged at Gandalf and Redagast.
Several ringlings on horseback have completed a surprise attack, although they have not succeeded, they have once again come back far away, and the two ringlings who were hit by themselves and their comrades and fell off their horses have also rushed to the front with their long swords. Seeing this situation, Gandalf could only cheer up and prepare for the battle, while secretly praying in his heart.
"Almighty Ilavata, if you can hear it, please give us strength~."
