Chapter 20 Confirmation of Intentions II
"What will I see?" With sharp eyes on Galadriel, Frodo had already noticed that something was wrong, especially after seeing Galadriel's smiling expression.
"Even the wisest of wise men do not know how much this mirror can reveal!" Galadriel still had a smile on his face. Carrying a silver bottle full of water, he came to the edge of the stone platform, poured the spring water from the silver bottle into a mirror that looked like a basin, and said softly: "There are still some things in the past and the present, but there are still things that have not yet happened!" ”
After saying that, all the spring water in the silver bottle was poured into the mirror. Taking a few steps back, Galadriel held the silver bottle and looked at Frodo quietly, without saying anything more.
With a slight hesitation, Galadriel looked at Frodo slowly towards the stone platform. But the hobbits are so short that the stone platform for elves or humans is only up to their waist and abdomen, but for the hobbits it is their full height! Frodo had no choice but to hold on to the edge of the stone platform, allowing himself to hang in the air, so that he could see what was really revealed in the mirror where the spring water was stored.
Glancing hesitantly at Galadriel again, Frodo focused his gaze on the mirror. Slowly, the spring in the mirror seemed to ripple as if it had been wrinkled by the breeze, and then Frodo saw people inside. They were all members of the Fellowship of the Ring, and they all seemed to be walking in front of them, and then they looked back at him, but their eyes were so cold and unfamiliar, as if they were looking at a disgusting being, and finally left him! Immediately afterward, the scene in the mirror changed. This time it was a place that made him familiar! Peaceful and simple and beautiful Hobbit homeland, but what appeared in the mirror shocked him!
Flames raged and burned the houses of the hobbits to the ground. One by one, disgusting and ugly orcs slaughtered, and in the end, all the hobbits were bound by ropes, and even his partner Sam Weiss was among them, driven forward by the orcs, heading out into nowhere!
And the Shire. All that remains is the ruins eroded by the flames, a mess!
Suddenly, the mirror began to glow red, like a burning charr's flame red light, and then a huge flame eyeball that filled the entire mirror appeared!
Sauron's MONOCULUS! Frodo was terrified, resisting, not even noticing that he cared that the One Ring had slipped out of his collar and approached the mirror as if he had been summoned. Move closer to its owner!
The One Ring! Seeing the One Ring slip out of Frodo's collar, Galadriel's gaze instantly sharpened.
Frodo, who was staring at Sauron's magic eye in horror, suddenly caught a glimpse of a golden light on his chest!
The Lord of the Rings! It's mine! His right hand suddenly grabbed at his chest, but Frodo forgot that he was holding a stone platform with both hands to see the mirror, and that his right hand was very strong, so he flew backwards in embarrassment, as if he had been thrown out.
"I know what you're seeing. Because in my heart I see it too! Just as Frodo was a little dazed and about to get up, he suddenly heard Galadriel's voice. When he looked up, he saw that Galadriel's mouth was not open. It's just that
"If you do fail, this is what will happen in the future!" He looked at Galadriel with some trepidation. Frodo's heart still ringed with Galadriel's voice, mysterious and deep, like a ghost in the night, making people feel cold: "It will try to take back the Ring, you know who I'm talking about!" The expedition will fail, and now it has begun one after the other, and it will destroy everyone! ”
Is it magic to know what I think? He looked at Galadriel hesitantly, but at Galadriel's chuckling expression. Frodo knew he had guessed right. After recalling for a while, turning over the joyful memories of Charles little by little, Frodo suddenly said in his heart: "If you want, I can give you the ring!" ”
Is it bad to be a joyful hobbit? Is the One Ring really that important? With the Lord of the Rings in my hands, does my future still exist? Clenched the One Ring in his hands. The One Ring doesn't shake or anything like that. But for some reason, Frodo just felt that it was agitated! As his gaze swept over Galadriel's beautiful fingers, Frodo knew it was another ring!
It should be the elf three rings! Frodo thought to himself. But he immediately reacted to what he had just said!
"Are you really going to give me the Ring unconditionally?" Suddenly, Galadriel's mouth opened, no longer using magic to transmit her words into Frodo's heart.
Hesitating, resisting, and frightened, Frodo just stiffened and didn't answer. Maybe he's already regretting what he just said!
Slowly approaching Frodo, Galadriel reached for the One Ring in Frodo's palm and whispered, "I don't deny how much my heart longs to have it."
After a slight pause, Galadriel began to ask her heart if she could keep herself under the ravages of the Ring, but finally she realized that it was impossible. No matter what her heart is at this time, she can't deny that the Lord of the Rings can seduce only her desires, and under the gradual erosion of her own desires, she will only turn into a tyrant who plunges the world into darkness in the end!
"Now, this opportunity has finally arrived. You're willing to give me the Ring! You defeated the Dark Lord and enthroned the Empress. And I will not fall into darkness, I will be beautiful and great, as the dawn and the twilight! Like the ocean, like the sun, like the snow among the peaks! Terrifying like a storm and lightning! Stronger than the earth! All the people and all things will fear and honor me."
She raised her hand and cast a pillar of light from the ring she was wearing, plunging everything into darkness except for the light in the pillar. She stood in front of Frodo, indescribably tall, indescribably beautiful, terrifying and sublime. Then she lowered her hand and let the light fade, and suddenly she laughed again, and with a thud, she shrunk back into her original slender elven woman, dressed in a simple white robe, and her voice was gentle and sentimental: "I have passed the trial, and I am willing to disappear with history, and return to the West to continue to keep the name of Galadriel." ”
"I can't go to Mordor with it alone, besides Sauron, there's a terrible fire demon!" After seeing Galadriel's terrifying and sublime image, Frodo found that his heart was clear, as if all the desire to seduce him was gone, and he only wanted to know how to get to Mordor. But he remembered everything he had seen in the mirror again, and one by one the Fellowship of the Ring left him
"You are the bearer of the Ring, Frodo, the bearer of the Ring is destined to be a lonely person, this is your destiny, if you can't do it, there will be no one again! As for the Flame Demon," Galadriel looked at Liu Hong, who was already sitting at the root of the Mellon tree not far away, "You will deal with the Flame Demon, Mr. Liu Hong." He is your madness and your passion, and as long as you want to restore your feelings, you are destined to annihilate him! Then reclaim your feelings! ”
"Yan Shang is me, I don't need to take it." Jumping down from the root of the tree, Liu Hong walked up to Frodo, stretched out his hand to him, and said lightly: "Show me the Supreme Ring, I want to confirm its current impact on me." ”
He took a few steps back, but Frodo found that he had retreated to the root of the wall, and there was no room for retreat, so he could only say to Liu Hong helplessly: "Didn't you say that Mordor wouldn't snatch the ring?" ”
"I didn't say I wanted the Ring, I just wanted to see if the Ring could affect my body right now." didn't approach Frodo, but Liu Hong didn't put away his hand, just looked at Frodo lightly.
"Show the Lord of the Rings to Mr. Liu Hong, Frodo." Slowly coming to Liu Hong's side, Galadriel looked at Liu Hong carefully, just like looking at a delicate puppet. Yes, dolls! Galadriel felt that Liu Hong was now like a puppet, although the delicacy and beauty were not inferior to her, but there was no anger. This made her wonder why Vera had forgotten to fill her soul with this delicate figure.
hesitated for a while, but Frodo, who was not provoked by the Supreme Ring, still handed the Supreme Ring to Liu Hong's hand.
There was no pause, no thanks, after the Supreme Demon Ring was in Liu Hong's hand, Liu Hong held it in the palm of his hand and felt it carefully. Not long ago, when he was in the Wall of Moria, he had come into contact with the Supreme Ring, but at that time he still retained the feelings carried by the flames, so just by touching it, he felt all kinds of desires all over his body, and almost made him go berserk, but at this time
Just like holding an ordinary gold ring, a gold ring that he could easily transform into clay and refine into a pile of gold by himself, Liu Hong found that the magic ring could no longer seduce his desires! And also! That's called the desire to kill, but
"I don't have to kill." Like throwing away a stone picked up on the side of the road, Liu Hong threw the One Ring into Frodo's hands. However, although he said that he did not need to kill, the kind of killing machine that diffused to make people desperate was indeed so terrible that even the grass and trees under his feet gradually showed signs of withering! Not to mention Frodo, he is just an ordinary hobbit, a little stronger at most, but Liu Hong's killing machine is far from what he can resist!
Frodo felt as if he had returned to Carranras, stripped naked and naked in Carranas in the coldest of months!
"Since there is no need to kill, then go and rest." Galadriel inserted between Frodo and Liu Hong, completely blocking Liu Hong's momentum: "Frodo should also be resting." (To be continued.) )
