Chapter 266: The Fellowship of the Ring: Leaving Soon
Bang!
He raised his axe high and smashed it down, a boom accompanied by a burst of sparks, and the axe made by the originally hard dwarf instantly shattered.
At the same time, an inexplicable spiritual fluctuation spread from the magic ring to the surroundings, feeling this spiritual fluctuation, everyone was shocked, under the influence of this spiritual power, as if, as if everyone could see an eye composed of flames, staring at themselves before themselves.
Frodo, who was the weakest, suddenly had a painful look on his face, and covered his forehead with his right hand.
"Gimli, no one's weapons can destroy the Ring, the Ring is forged by the flames of the Doomsday Volcano, and only in that place can it be destroyed, you must go deep into Mordor and throw the Ring into the flames of the Doom Volcano." King Elon stood up and looked at the crowd and spoke.
"Wait, I know that among the elves, there are also three powerful rings, what about their whereabouts? Aren't they in the hands of the elven nobles? Aren't these three rings also made by the Demon Lord a long time ago? Are they just sitting on the sidelines? Here I saw the elven nobleman, who did not speak for anything. Gimli said abruptly, his eyes on Groffindelle.
Grofendale said nothing, and King Elrond, who was sitting in his seat, stood up.
"Gimli, these three rings were not made by Sauron, and he never touched them, but we can't reveal any secrets about them. Even in moments of your questioning, I can only say so much. They didn't sit idly by. But these rings were not meant to be used as instruments of war or conquest: they were not capable of it. The craftsmen who built them did not want power, power, or wealth; What they want is understanding, creation and healing, so that everything is unpolluted. These forces were obtained by the elves of the Middle-earth realm who sacrificed a lot. If Sauron regains the One Ring, then all the good deeds of the Three Rings will become their Achilles' weakness, giving Sauron a chance to know their whereabouts and thoughts. If so, it would be better for the three precepts to not exist at all, and this is also the intention of the demon king. Looking at Gimley, King Elon said.
"But what happens if the One Ring is destroyed?" Gimli said.
"We are also not sure that some people hope that the three precepts, which Sauron never touched, will be freed. It can repair the damage caused by the Demon King to this world. But. Perhaps once the One Ring is destroyed, the Three Rings will also disappear, and many beautiful things will disappear and be forgotten. I think the latter is the more likely scenario. King Elon said with some sadness.
"However, all the elves are willing to take that risk. Doing so will wipe out Sauron's strength. Let him never be able to rule the world. Groffinddale said to the crowd.
"So now. We're back to the question of how to destroy the Ring, but we're just spinning in circles. What can we do to find the flame that forged it, this is a desperate path, to be precise, it is actually a foolish path, and if we fail on the way, then the Lord of the Rings will fall into the hands of Sauron. Boromo spoke.
"Didn't you hear King Elrond? We must destroy the Lord of the Rings! Legolas stood up and said.
"We can't do it, Mordor is filled with ashes, dust, and Sauron's infinite army, the air is filled with the smell of death, and Sauron's magic eye in the sky is watching there all the time." Boromo said.
"Despair, or stupidity?" "It's not despair, it's the torment of those who insist on seeing the end and giving up all hope," Gandalf said. We are not such people. The so-called wisdom must recognize the path in front of us and pick out the direction in which there is no other choice. Although, it may be foolish for those who keep false hopes alive; Let stupidity be our cover and block Sauron's gaze! He is scheming, and will always weigh and calculate everything on the scales of his wickedness. But he only has desires in his heart, so he uses desires to measure all beings in the world. He would never have imagined that anyone would be able to refuse the Ring, that we, with the Ring in our hands, would want to destroy it, and if it were our choice, he would be caught off guard. ”
"At least for now," said King Elon following Gandalf's words, "and even if it is fraught with obstacles, we must embark on this path, and no amount of strength or wisdom will be enough to help us get through it." In this mission, the weak may have the same opportunities as the strong. But isn't this the principle of all things in heaven and earth? The weak fight for their lives, while the strong carelessly turn their heads to other sides. ”
"So who went to Mordor with the Ring? I'm not going to give it to the elves, the elves are unreliable. Gimli exclaimed.
Hearing Gimli's words, the elves who had followed Legolas couldn't help but stand up and look angrily at the suddenly berserk dwarf.
"What if it fails? Can you guarantee success? Boromo also spoke.
Suddenly, the scene fell into a mess, and Lin Yifeng and Susan glanced at each other, and sensitively found that the power of the magic ring seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.
It seemed to absorb the anger of the people at this moment, as well as other emotions.
At the same time, Lin Yifeng also noticed that only Gandalf, King Elon, Aragon, and Groffindel were not affected.
"Don't you know that the more noisy Sauron's strength is, the stronger it becomes?" Noticing a few people at the same time, Aragon stood up and said loudly.
"So I thought you should calm down, and maybe listen to my opinion." The magnetic field rotates, the cells rub, the force suddenly increases, the huge force in the body rotates, the surrounding air suddenly stagnates, and the air is full of oppressive force, as if a cat faces a lion.
Feeling this terrifying force, everyone stopped arguing and looked at Lin Yifeng.
"There's already a choice, isn't it? Fate has decided who should go to Mordor and destroy the Ring. Lin Yifeng looked at the magic ring on the stone platform. Keep your eyes on Frodo.
At the same time, seeing the place where Lin Yifeng's gaze was looking, the rest of the people also looked in the same direction, and when they found out that the person this powerful human was talking about turned out to be a little hobbit, their faces couldn't help but be full of strange looks.
However, due to Lin Yifeng's strength, everyone didn't say much for a while, just looked at Frodo with strange and distrustful eyes.
Watching intently at everyone's eyes, Frodo's heart seemed to be suspended, as if he was waiting for the verdict of death. But I want to never hear the end.
Finally, it seems that I have made up my mind. Frodo slowly walked out under the surprised eyes of everyone, and said loudly, "I am willing, I am willing to take the Ring." But I don't know the way to Mordor. ”
Hear Frodo's words. Groffinddale and King Elon both had a smile on their faces. Then vanished, and King Elon looked up and looked at Frodo with that piercing gaze. Shen Sheng said to Frodo: "This task should belong to you, this is the arrangement of fate, Frodo if you don't know how to go on the road, then no one else will know the way, this is the moment that belongs to the residents of the Shire, they must wake up from the peace, shake the tower of the sages, if they are wise enough, how can they know the truth before the incident?" ”
After a pause, looking at the expressions of everyone, King Elon continued: "This is a heavy responsibility, no one can put it on others, this is not the responsibility we entrust to you, but if you accept it voluntarily, I will praise you for the right choice, if one day, we are anxious about all the great elven friends, Your Excellency will definitely have a place among the many great men." ”
"Your Excellency, you won't let Frodo go alone, will you!" Sam, who had been hiding in the corner of the bonsai outside the palace, suddenly jumped out and said loudly to King Elrond.
Sam's hidden people are all knowledgeable, but they don't say much, because they all know that Sam will never be Sauron's subordinate, and it should be said that Sauron's subordinates will never be mixed into Rivendell under the noses of King Elrond, Groffindelle, and Gandalf.
"Of course not, at least you should go with Frodo, because it seems like it's hard to separate you, even if it's a secret meeting and we didn't invite you." King Elon said to Sam with a smile.
"We seem to be in big trouble this time." Hearing King Elon's words, Sam's face couldn't help but blush slightly, and he sat down and whispered to Frodo.
"When are we ready to go?" Frodo said as he looked at King Elon and Gandalf.
"Don't be in such a hurry for the time being, at least we have to choose your teammates for you, at least you alone will never be able to escort the ring to Mount Doom on your own, you need someone to escort you with you." King Elon looked at Frodo and said.
"If the Ring has to leave here, it has to go now. But anyone who leaves with it cannot expect a large army or any kind of military support. They must go deep into the territory of the Demon King alone. Frodo, are you still willing to be the bearer of the Ring? Looking at Frodo, King Elon asked in a deep voice again. Yes, I do, and I will escort the Lord of the Rings to Mordor. Frodo's face was serious, and he nodded deeply, and said to King Elrond.
"And me, I'll follow Frodo's side." Sam said aloud as he watched King Elon stand up.
"I can't go with you on the road, because Rivendell needs my leadership, and I can't help you much, I'm sorry for that, but I don't see your future, and I don't know how to accomplish your mission, the shadow has begun to appear, and it is rapidly expanding, everything under the shadow is not something I can see, you will encounter many powerful enemies, some above board, some sneaky, disguised, you will find allies in the most unexpected places, I will also try my best to send out news to my friends in the world, but this land has fallen into an unprecedented crisis, and some news may fall into the wrong ears, and some will not be much faster than your journey. King Elon looked at Frodo and spoke.
All of this fully illustrates the difficulties of this trip.
"Therefore, I will choose companions for you, and decide the journey with you according to their wishes and fate. There can't be too many people, because the key to success or failure in this mission is speed and secrecy. Even if I had the elven heavy armor of the Ancient Times, it would only cause revenge from the army of Mordor. It won't do much. The number of the Fellowship of the Ring must be nine, nine beings against nine evil necromancy. In addition to you and your faithful servant, Gandalf will participate, as this is the mission he has been involved in from beginning to end, and it may also be the end of his efforts. As for the rest, it will have to represent the freedom- and peace-loving people of this world: elves, dwarves, and humans. Legolas, Glorfindale for elves, and Gimli for Dwarves for Groin's son, are willing to at least cross the Misty Mountains, or even beyond. As for the human race. You should pick Aragorn, son of Arasson. Because Essidor's ring is closely related to him. King Elon looked at Frodo and spoke.
"Freewalker!" Frodo shouted happily.
"That's right," said Aragorn with a smile, "I beg you to agree once again to be your companion, Frodo. ”
"I was going to beg you to come with me." Frodo said, "It's just that I thought you would be with Boromo." ”
Nodding his head, Aragorn said, "I do, but before I go to battle. It is also necessary to reforge the Broken Sword. But there are hundreds of miles between your path and mine. Therefore. Boromo will also be joining us, he is a brave and warlike man. ”
"Then there is still a vacancy, and we must find someone who can fight well with you." King Elon spoke.
"Peak. Mr. Feng, he has a strong force. Frodo spoke loudly to King Elrond.
"Must it be only one?" Looking at King Ailong, Lin Yifeng said.
Hearing Lin Yifeng's words, and then looking at Susan next to him, everyone also understood what this meant.
However, King Elon shook his head and said, "Yes, that's right, only nine people. ”
"In that case, I'm out of the way, it's enough for the elves to have Legolas, and I can help you in other ways." Suddenly, Groffinddale looked at everyone and suddenly said with a smile.
Hearing Grovedale's words, everyone didn't say much, but King Elrond's face changed slightly, as if he had thought of something.
"What about Pipin and Merry?" Frodo spoke at this point.
Compared with Glover Dell, Frodo hopes that it is Lin Yifeng and Susan who take care of themselves and others along the way who can complete this difficult task with him.
"They, they're going back to the Charr to save their briefing, because the war ignited by the Demon Lord will soon be ignited, and the Charr won't be as calm as ever." King Elon said.
"But don't worry, with Rivendell's location, the Hobbits will definitely not be in any danger, unless Rivendell is also nearly disintegrated under the power of the Demon Lord." Looking at Frodo, who was worried, King Elon said reassuringly.
"Obtain the third stage of the main quest: The Fellowship of the Ring. Escort the Fellowship of the Ring to the Bridge of Caesardom and assist Gandalf in becoming a White Wizard. Success Reward: 1500 Episode Points in the Realm. Failure Penalty: If the Fellowship of the Ring fails to pass the Bridge of Caesar's Dom, the plane plot ends and the privilege upgrade fails, and there is no reward for not helping Gandalf become a white-robed wizard. ”
At the moment when King Ayron finished speaking, Lin Yifeng and Susan also received the task released by the system at the same time, but looking at the task released, Lin Yifeng and Susan couldn't help but twitch at the same time, this thing, what kind of task is this thing?
Where is the bridge of Caesardom in the Fellowship of the Ring, Lin Yifeng doesn't know what to do, but how Lin Yifeng became a white-robed wizard in Gandalf's original movie is very clear, that is, Gandalf and the fire demon fell into the abyss, thinking that this Caesardo bridge should be the stone bridge when Gandalf and the fire demon fought, but how to help Gandalf become a white-robed wizard, could it be that when he encountered the fire demon again, Lin Yifeng pushed Gandalf down?
It's a pain in the ass!
"When should we go?" Frodo asked, looking at King Elrond.
"In seven days, but before that, I need to do one thing, the holy sword that has been broken for countless years, it's time for its new owner to shine with his own light, and this one thing needs the help of Gimli, Grofendale, and the two of you." King Elon looked at Aragorn, and Grovendale and Gimli spoke.
Hearing King Elrond's words, everyone present couldn't help but be surprised, especially Borromo on the side.
The Nasir Holy Sword should also be called the Sword of Elendil, he has an incomparably powerful force, which Lin Yifeng has already felt, and it is only a broken existence.
So how powerful would it be if it was reforged and restored to its former glory?
You know, it was the holy sword that cut off the finger of the demon lord Sauron who was wearing the ring.
With the cry of King Elrond, two elves entered from outside, and unlike the other handsome youths, their faces were like those of old men among men, their skin was withered and lackluster.
In each of them was holding half of the fragment of Nasir's sword.
Half is the blade, and the other half is connected to the hilt.
"Lord Elon, we need the hottest flame to disassemble the Holy Sword again, and this is not something we can do." The two elves said to King Elrond.
They had placed the broken sword on the stone platform, and the Ring had temporarily imprisoned its energy with the help of Grofendale, King Elrond, and Gandalf, at least to a weak being like Frodo.
And the Ring, as before, was quietly hidden in Frodo's chest. (To be continued......)
