Parod has always had two thorns in his heart, one is Bard and the other is Smaug - whether Bard stands up and raises his arms and shouts, or Smaug's whim, he may lose his position as mayor and never enjoy the power and wealth of the man again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In comparison, it was Smaug who was more terrifying.

If Bard leads the masses to launch a wave of opposition, Parod can also use his position as mayor to fight back, and with his long-standing network, it is difficult to predict the outcome of the two. However, if Smaug had attacked, there would be no fun to play with - Parod knew that he was just an embroidered pillow, and that even if he had a dragon hunting bow designed to deal with Smaug, he would still not pose any threat to Smaug.

What's more, the despicable nature that comes from the bloodline is destined for the path that Parod will take, he has never thought of confronting Smaug head-on, and when the fire dragon does attack, he will inevitably become a deserter before everyone else.

Although the size of the fireball is only a dozen meters long, far less than Smaug's hundreds of meters (in the novel, Smaug is set to be more than ten meters long, but in the film, in order to ensure the visual effect, Smaug's body shape was changed to hundreds of meters), but after all, it is still Smaug's kindred, a fire dragon that exudes endless might.

"Maybe you've already guessed it." Looking at Parod, who was trembling, Chu Xiaobai curled the corners of his mouth again: "That's right, the reason why we came to you to ask for the Dragon Hunting Bow is not only to deal with Smaug, but also to erase the threat to it. ”

"What a good pet, I don't want anything that threatens it to be left outside." Stretched out his palm and touched the dragon head with the fireball down a few times, feeling the rough feeling coming from the palm of his hand, taking advantage of the fact that his face was blocked by the dragon head, which was just at an angle that Parod couldn't see, Chu Xiaobai hurriedly winked at Bard on the other side - releasing the fireball was a sudden action on his whim, and it was only at this moment that he remembered that Bard had never seen a fireball before, and he was a person who was extremely hostile to the fire dragon.

Fortunately, Chu Xiaobai reacted in time and gave a signal before Bard spoke; Fortunately, Bard is also a clever person, and seeing that the expressions of Aragorn and the others have not changed, he is also very interested in keeping quiet. If Bard had questioned it at this point, it might have made things difficult again - although Parod had been frightened by the fire dragon, and there was not much chance of him rising again, but there was still a possibility, right?

"I'll give it, I'll give you whatever you want, don't let him get close to me~~!"

"Cut, we're talking like robbers." With Parod's promise, the matter was successfully completed. However, his slightly ambiguous words still made Chu Xiaobai a little unhappy: "Don't worry, we are different from you, except for the dragon hunting big bow, other things are not our goal." ”

It was because of the unhappiness in his heart that when he left, Chu Xiaobai deliberately put some eye medicine on Parod - "You know, we are going to deal with Smaug next." Considering that you are quite cooperative today, I will give you a warning in advance. Well~~, we don't have a complete chance of solving Smaug all at once, and if that happens, it's likely to leave its lair and vent its anger. If you calculate the distance, Long Lake is probably the closest town, and if you don't want to be destroyed by Smaug's wrath with the town, you might as well pack up and leave here as soon as possible. ’

"Chu, I think I need some explanation."

"OK, I knew you were going to say that."

After getting the dragon hunting bow, Bard was supposed to go straight home. He still has a few little ones to take care of at home, and even if he wants to join the expedition, he doesn't need to be in a hurry for a while.

However, because there were many new questions just now, and those words were not good to say in front of the children, he temporarily changed his mind and did not go home directly, but first followed the army to the inn.

"Tell me what that dragon is all about, you didn't tell me you had a dragon before." Thinking back to his ancestors who died in the dragon's mouth, Bud's emotions couldn't help but get excited, and his attitude was much more serious than before.

"You can rest assured. The fireball I found while traveling in another world, it wasn't a wild dragon, it was hatched from an egg by myself. I've been educating it since it was born, and it doesn't mess around like those brainless guys. In order to dispel the sense of crisis in Bud's heart, Chu Xiaobai deliberately made a joke: "To be honest, it doesn't even eat raw meat." ”

"Another world?" Wasn't it born in the same world, maybe there would be some differences in nature, right? Bard's heart loosened a little.

Guessing Bud's thoughts, Chu Xiaobai nodded: "The dragons of this world, I mean, including the former Evil Dragon Ancestor Graulon, the Black Dragon Ankaragang, and the Cold Dragon Skasha, were all created by the evil Villamirkor, that is, Morgoth. It is precisely because of this birth background that they are destined to have an evil nature. ”

"And my fireball is different. In their world, the dragon was just one of many magical creatures, evil or good. With an evil master, it may be poorly educated, well, just like the vicious dogs you saw in Parod's house. On the contrary, if they follow a good person, they may also be well educated and become a good child who is both sensible and obedient. ”

"I can prove it~! The fireball is indeed a good boy, and it still flies in the sky with me~! Bilbo, who had completed the procurement task ahead of schedule and had already returned to the inn first, also participated in this conversation.

"I can prove that too. In the time I've known it, it really hasn't done anything bad. Legolas also raised his hand and agreed, and then, he turned his head and made a request to Chu Xiaobai: "Chu, when will you let the fireball fly with me?" I'd like to try that too. ”

"And me~!" Aragorn also shouted, he was only a half-grown child, and he was now at the age when he liked to challenge new things the most.

Aragorn's words are negligible, and the key is that Bilbo and Legolas are both giving Fireball and Chu Xiaobai help. Both hobbits and elves are notoriously peace-loving, and with the recognition of the two of them, the good and evil of the fireball are greatly certified.

After thinking about it for a while, Bard finally chose to believe Chu Xiaobai's words.

There was another question, and the most important one, and after a moment of silence, Bard asked more solemnly: "Chu, you said that you are not completely sure that you will solve Smaug, is it true?" ”

Mayor Parod's heart doesn't have any sense of honor, and his mind is full of selfish thoughts, so he doesn't care about the lives of the townspeople in Changhu Town. However, as a descendant of Jilian, Bard is different, always remembering the glory of his ancestors, and always thinking about justifying his ancestors, naturally, he will always consider the townspeople of Changhu Town from the perspective of a lord.

If the mission to defeat Smaug fails, if Smaug arrives in ...... town full of anger. Just imagining it for a moment, Bud felt a chill in his eyes.

"If you say 'solve' is 'kill', I can only answer 'yes' if you look at the existing conditions alone." Without concealing it, Chu Xiaobai nodded honestly. However, just as Bard was about to protest, he stretched out his arm again and gestured with a 'don't worry, listen to me first': "But if you don't aim to kill Smaug, you want to disarm its threat to the world." If I had waited a little longer and made my final preparations, my answer would have been different. ”

"Huh?" Bard was silent for a moment, and after a few moments, he asked, "Can you explain it in detail?" ”

"First of all, I can find a way to get it to another world, well, a deserted world. It's like I'm getting fireballs out of other worlds to myself. Chu Xiaobai said with a smile: "In that case, even if you don't kill it, you don't have to worry that it will be a threat to this world again." ”

"In addition, if we wait a little longer, we may be able to get new combat power in our team. If I'm not mistaken, Gandalf, and even Ridagast, will soon come and join us. With their help, the grasp of dealing with Smaug can be improved by a few ....... ”

"Wait a minute." Bahrain suddenly interrupted Chu Xiaobai's words: "Didn't Gandalf and Redagast go to Dolgo?" How do you know what they're doing? Know they're going to join us in the near future? ”

"Uh~~."

Now that I've secured the Lord of the Rings, the dark forces on Dolgodo's side will be gone, and Gandalf and Redagaste, who have nothing to do, will come and join us—I can't say that. After all, no one knew about obtaining the Supreme Demon Ring and purifying it, and saying it would only bring more troubles to Chu Xiaobai himself.

It's really hard to explain, Chu Xiaobai had to play mysterious: "I just use that feeling, how can I say it?" It's like precognition. Or, you can interpret it as my sense of empathy for them, after all, my relationship with Gandalf and Radagast is also considered companionship. ”

"That's it~." Balin didn't suspect Chu Xiaobai-Maiya, who came from such a big place, and has always been mysterious, a little magical thing that others don't know, and it's not something that can't be understood.
