Boom Rumble......

There was a dense sound of horses' hooves, but it was King Elon who came to the expedition with the elven guards.

Thorin and the other dwarves didn't have a good face when they saw the elves, but Gandalf came out very enthusiastically and greeted, "Hey, King Elrond, my old friend! ”

With Zhang Shuo standing in front, the elven guards did not dare to surround the expedition team and play like in the original story, but all stood quietly by the side of King Elon and guarded.

Seeing Gandalf, King Elon took his eyes off Zhang Shuo and said to Gandalf, "Mislanda! Hello my old friend~"

Mislanda is the elven name for Gandalf, which means the gray-robed saint, and it is also the elven name for Gandalf.

Whether it is a wizard or an elf, they are immortal beings, and their friendship is indeed very deep.

"This is Mr. Shuo, an adventurer from the East, right?! Greetings to Elven Elon! Elon jumped off his horse, hugged Gandalf, and then gave Zhang Shuo a noble courtesy of the elf clan, which showed his respect for Zhang Shuo.

Even the dwarves on the side who were originally tense puffed up their chests, as if they were honored, after all, Zhang Shuo was their teammate, and now even the arrogant elf king had to be respected.

"Hello, Lord of Rivendell, King Elon, my name is Zhang Shuo, and in our place I usually have the surname first, and the title last, as you say, I am an adventurer from the Far East, but I am also a warrior!" Zhang Shuowei arched his hand and used a Chinese etiquette to salute Ailong, which made the other party stunned.

"There is no doubt that he must be a great warrior, and since a few of them have come to Rivendell, I should do my best to be a landlord," King Elon looked graceful and invited all the members of the expedition to the elven gathering place.

During the whole conversation, Thorin, the leader of the original expedition, was not asked a word, but Thorin and the others subconsciously ignored this seemingly disrespectful act.

Without him, Zhang Shuo's combat power and leadership temperament are already the first person in the team.

Although Thorin didn't want to enter the territory of the elves, since Zhang Shuo had already agreed, and the team's supplies were all used up, the most important thing was that the ciphertext on the map could only be understood by King Elon, so he pinched his nose and recognized it.

The group, led by King Elrond, walked into Rivendell. After entering the canyon, I saw that under the sunset, the whole of Rivendell was like a beautiful picture.

A towering mountain range, snow-capped at the highest point and warm as spring at the bottom, the snow melts from the summit and merges into streams that flow down the mountain.

At the cliff, the river rushes down and turns into a stormy waterfall. Eventually, the waterfall and the river formed a large river on the plain in front of the mountain, flowing outward from the foot of the people and out of the valley.

Halfway up the mountainside, a large group of gorgeous and elegant buildings built according to the mountainside fully reflect the aesthetics of the elves, that is, exquisite!

To enter Rivendell at this point, you need to cross a stone bridge, which has no guardrails, allowing only two people to cross side by side, and the river is rushing underneath. Building cities in river valleys and abysses seems to be a very popular defense for elves.

At this point, King Elon and Zhang Shuo walked side by side at the front, Gandalf shrugged and Thorin followed, followed by Bilbo and the Dwarves, and finally the Elven Guard.

"Mr. Shuo's power is obtained through cultivation? What an amazing cultivation method! King Ailong and Zhang Shuo walked side by side, not only losing the hospitality of the landlord along the way, but also knocking on Zhang Shuo's origin.

"That's right, the method of my cultivation can be practiced by everyone in principle, but the level of achievement depends on everyone's talent." And Zhang Shuo was also happy to tell the other party some information, and when he saw King Ailong asking about the source of his power, he also clearly said that he had obtained it through a unique cultivation method.

"Mr. Shuo is the most powerful human warrior I have ever met, and I wonder if I can stay in Rivinedell for a few more days, I hope to be able to communicate with Mr. Shuo more." King Elon said with great grace.

"Uh-huh~ I also love the beauty of Rivendell, but the expedition team has a mission, and I don't want to stay too long." Zhang Shuo said euphemistically.

Zhang Shuo's words made Thorin behind him feel at ease, although with Zhang Shuo's reason, the expedition team traveled much faster, but the lonely mountain was still far away, and Thorin didn't want to stay in the elf's place for too long......

In the evening, King Elon welcomed the expedition with a grand dinner and invited Gandalf, Thorin, and Zhang Shuo to the same table.

After the dinner, Elon and Gandalf and Thorin go to the moonlight to study the map and parse the hidden information, while Zhang Shuo says that he wants to take a walk in Rivendell and enjoy the night, and has no sense of participation.

Not to mention the information on the map, he already knew it, but after saying that Gandalf and Elon were going to have a small meeting with the white-robed wizard Saruman and the elven queen Galadriel, it was inconvenient for him to be there.

At night, Rivendell had a different scene, Zhang Shuo had the personal order of King Elron, and walked through the elven buildings with green trees and twists and turns of the corridors, but there were no guards to stop him.

There are frescoes on the walls of the corridor, which describe the history of the elves and the major events of Middle-earth, banquets, wars, alliances and other scenes, walking in the corridor is like witnessing the historical development of the entire elves and even Middle-earth.

Every step, every painting, is a history.

At this moment, a small figure in the hallway stood there, looking up at a mural on the wall, and was fixed.

With Zhang Shuo's eyesight, even if the light is dim, he can clearly see that it is a little human boy about ten years old, and then looking at the mural, Zhang Shuo already has a guess about the identity of the boy in his heart.

Seventy years later, one of the protagonists of the Lord of the Rings, the Emperor of Men - Aragorn!

"This is the final battle of the Alliance, the alliance of humans and elves is in Mordor, and the dark lord Sauron responds to the battle, killing the human emperor Elendil and the elven emperor Gilgalad on the battlefield. Just when the tide of the battle was reversed, Essizer, the son of the Emperor Elendil, picked up the broken Nasir Sword and defeated Sauron, thus winning the war! A voice sounded behind the boy, who couldn't help but turn his head to look back.

"You're human? I've never seen a human like you! I'm sorry, but you're a guest of Lord Elon, right? Aragorn couldn't help but be curious when he saw Zhang Shuo's appearance that was different from the elves or humans of Middle-earth, and then, realizing that he was rude, he immediately turned to ask.

"Yes, I'm going on an adventure to the Lonely Mountain with Gandalf, I'm Zhang Shuo, you can call me Shuo, I'm from the very far east!"

"You can call me Estelle, you are adventuring with the Grey Robe Saints, and you are from the far east, then you must be very powerful?!" The boy asked in surprise, apparently admiring heroes and adventurous people.

"Estelle, which means 'hope' in the Sinda elven language, is a very good name, as for the awesome~ Hehe, there are always some means to come out on an adventure!"

Estelle, the elven name of Aragon, he was born ten years ago in the Dudan tribe, his father Alassan II was killed by the orcs, Aragorn became the sixteenth leader of the Dudan tribe, but he was too young, Aragon's mother Gil Ryan took her to Rivendell to seek refuge. Elon also accepted him, adopted him as his adopted son, and named him Estelle, but concealed his origins.

At this time, he didn't know his life experience, but he had admired heroes since he was a child, and when he saw that Zhang Shuo could come here from the far east, he chatted with Zhang Shuo with admiration.

Aragorn was very curious about Zhang Shuo's skills, so he begged Zhang Shuo to show it. There was no way, Zhang Shuo and Aragorn came to a clearing in the woods, the brilliance in their hands flashed, and the Xuantie giant sword instantly appeared in their hands.

"Then I'll show you a set of Tempest Sword Techniques that are only second-rate in the far east!"
