A long table was placed in the middle of Elrond's house, now flanked by people, mostly elves, but also guests of other races. www.biquge.info As the master of the land, the Elven King sat on the throne at the end of the long table as usual, looking down on the crowd, with Glorfendale on one side and Saruman on the other.

Zhao Mai did not sit down, but chose to stand behind Frodo, which made the halfling very nervous. He had already mentioned this issue several times, but Zhao Mai finally did not agree. "Oh, Frodo, I'm not standing. You see, the soles of my feet are still some distance from the ground. ”

Theoretically, Zhao Mai flew in, but the distance from the ground was very low, and he had to lie down to see clearly. He didn't "set foot" in the room, nor did he eat anything here, or enjoy the drinks. Not even being able to come in and eat with the food reserves made it depressing. You must know that elves are basically vegetarian all day long, although they can digest meat, but they usually have no reserves and rarely serve on the table. In order to entertain guests from all over the world, Rivendell bought meat from the human town of "Brie". That's the elf's barbecue technique!

Whether it is Elrond, Grofendale or Saruman, when they sit on the top seats, they exude an air of dignity all over their bodies. There are other people, although their breath is not as strong as that of the three of them, but it is easy to conclude that they are not ordinary people. However, no matter what the aura is, as long as you get close to Zhao Mai and Frodo, you will be blocked. Zhao Mai used his natural force to form a realm, and unless he could find a way to adapt to the environmental rules of this small area, any spell and power would be affected. It's physically draining to do, but it's worth it to block out countless prying eyes.

Glorffindelle has blonde hair, and his status is the most special of all. Elrond is the Elven King, but not the only one in the world, and Saruman is the head of the wizards and the speaker of the White Council, but he is not the only wizard after all. But Glorfendale was the only elf to die heroically fighting Morgoth's Firedemons, resurrected in Valinor, and then sent back to Middle-earth by Vera and Maia. His strength is no less than that of Saruman, nor is he inferior to the Elven King who carries the Ring of the Wind.

He looked at Zhao Mai with curious eyes, constantly searching for information from his memory. In retrospect, on the banks of the Xiangshui River, regardless of whether the Witch King Angmar, the head of the Ring Spirits, was swept away by the river, the splash caused by that punch alone knocked everyone down. It is conceivable that if that punch hits you, you will also explode into a splash in the air, there is no doubt about it. Who is he? Is there such a strong guy in the mortal world?

Elrond seemed to know something, but he didn't share it with anyone, including Saruman. "That's Tverdo, a friend of the Star Elves, a very brave warrior. These are Elrond's exact words. But how Tverdo became a friend of the Star Elves, and how he was allowed to continue to protect Frodo because of his bravery, is a mysterious unknown.

Many people are very interested in Zhao Mai's identity, and this interest will also be transferred to the halfling Frodo. Not everyone knew the true purpose of the meeting, and most simply heeded the call of the Elven King Elrond to come here to "discuss how to deal with the evil threat from the East". As for the One Ring, it is hidden underneath this issue.

Zhao Mai met everyone's curious gaze and slowly closed his eyes. This did not affect his momentum in the slightest, but could make people with ghosts in their hearts even more worried. Originally, there were many people who wanted to come over and meet new people, especially halflings, who were very rare outside the Shire Realm, and they didn't give up their thoughts now. So Frodo's only new friend is the dwarf Groin.

Groin once ventured with Frodo's archbie, Bilbo Baggins, one of the twelve dwarves who recaptured Iruber. Frodo talks about his admiration, and Groin introduces his son. "I'll let Jin Li come to you later, you young people should get to know each other. He's much stronger and more powerful than I was, and he uses an axe well. This time take him to the elves to see the world. Alas, the last time we were here, we snuck away, and this time we can't do that. ”

After chatting for a while, the conversation soon turned to the current situation in Middle-earth. Mordor has successfully carried out several rounds of raiding, and the surrounding races and kingdoms have been hit. It is said that a new round of attacks is brewing, and everyone is in fear.

"Watch out for Irub (Lonely Mountain), Sauron will attack there. He needed wealth, he needed enough steel and equipment, and Irub was his best bet. Zhao Mai suddenly opened his eyes and interjected a sentence. "Evil is spreading in the dark forest, and it's hard to flank the orcs' path north. Help the elves ......"

"Perhaps the elves of Rivendell are our friends, and King Elrond once helped us decipher the map and entertained us with kindness. But the elves of the Dark Forest are a different story. Groyin was a little surprised, he thought Zhao Mai couldn't speak. "Where are you an elf, elf?"

"I'll tell you a little secret, I'm not an elf. Zhao Mai blinked, and then stopped talking.

"The gods are mysterious, and the elves have such strange tempers!" the dwarf looked at Frodo, "Oh, where did you just go?"

"Looking for the whereabouts of Bahrain. ”

"Well, yes. There is good news and bad news. Groyin sighed and said, "In all fairness, everyone is quite busy, elves, humans, wizards. Look over there, the knights of Gondor, and the knights of Rohan, why do humans use the same word, how troublesome! Humans are beating, elves are beating. We dwarves are fine, at least we beat the orcs well! I still prefer Gandalf in gray robes to Saruman in white robes. It's not that I have ventured with him to reclaim the dwarven homeland of Irubi, but that he is more kind and friendly, and more equal and friendly to us. It's just that...... He is always at a loss for some reason, but he always seems to be there in time when he needs to. ”

Can it still appear in time this time? Zhao Mai thought of Saruman, who was full of spirit, and if he didn't have enough faith, he would definitely not come to Elrond's meeting. What happened to Gandalf, and where would there be the Fellowship of the Ring without him?

At present, only Frodo can carry the One Ring, and the others are afraid that it will be difficult for everyone else to bear. Zhao Mai has already felt the call of the Supreme Ring many times, and he also desires to use the Ring to do good things, such as improving the environment, improving education, and benefiting the whole world. Fortunately, he knew that this world was just a parallel world, and that all the ideas left behind for the benefit of the world could be problematic. Moreover, the will of the world in his body is almost zero, and he is a "nameless junior" in this venue, and the Lord of the Rings has not spent much effort on him.

So, who is being influenced?

After the welcome dinner, the next day is the official meeting.
