Chapter 240: True Knowing Geosphere? Good stuff
After Merlin emerged from Mount Doom, he headed west, searching for the town for information and trying to find out what time period he had come to.
Soon Merlin found the answer he was looking for in a relatively large town, and the lord of the city was very obedient, and told him all the information he knew in a few words.
They were located here on the border between the kingdoms of Gondor and Rohan, and across a river was Rohan's territory.
According to the city lord, Isenger suddenly gathered an orc army to invade the Rohan Kingdom some time ago, but Gondor did not mobilize troops to support.
His keen mind instantly guessed that something was wrong with Mordor in the east, and war was about to break out......
When Merlin received satisfactory information, he erased his memories of his visit and set off again.
He already had a rough idea of what time period it was, and if nothing else, the storyline here was between the first and second parts.
Then I quickly grabbed a map and prepared to go to the Karahoras Mountains.
After all, he vaguely remembered that in the first part, Gandalf first ate deflated in the Kalahoras Mountains, reluctantly switched to the Moriath Pit, and then turned over the fire demon, and received a boxed lunch on the surface, but in essence, he saw the boss hang up and upgrade.
Merlin calculated that if he couldn't find Gandalf in either place, he would have to try his luck in the Roslorian Forest, where the Elven Queen lived.
But this magical queen, who is known as the most powerful magic queen in Middle-earth, will also turn black, and it seems that even Gandalf can't beat her.
Merlin doesn't really want to go, after all, just looking at the special effects of the movie, she is a strong batch, and maybe there is a possibility of overturning.
"Buzz"
Suddenly, Merlin's soul was touched, and the surrounding magic came to warn, which was an ability that could be mastered by existences that were close to breaking through the legend.
The body is becoming more and more integrated with the surrounding magical elements, and it is able to sense or convey certain information with the help of magical elements.
Just now, he noticed that someone was using magic to spy on him, and when he thought about it, he knew what was happening.
Middle-earth has a magical creature capable of monitoring the whole world, the Orb of True Knowledge.
Merlin had thought of this kind of thing immediately, and it was quite certain that someone had spotted it.
"Tsk, good thing, you can't let it go, but where is this thing?"
Merlin reminisced about the feeling just now, and the True Knowing Crystal Ball that could monitor the entire world, if it could be used in other worlds, it would really be a good thing.
Thinking about it, I can't help but mobilize my memory to recall the plot of The Lord of the Rings, trying to find out who has this kind of good thing in their hands.
There were seven of these powerful magical creations, four in the Kingdom of Gondor and three in the Kingdom of Arnor.
As far as Merlin knew, it seemed that two of the three in the Kingdom of Arnor had been missing, leaving the one in the hands of the elves.
However, the elves are not so boring, and they will most likely hide somewhere and not move when they play with the Crystal Orb.
Of the four of the Gondor Kingdom, one of the main crystals was placed in the old capital of Osgilias, heavily guarded, and presumably no one would use it to spy on Merlin.
Another one was stored in the new capital, Minasyano, and was used daily by Dinethor II to spy on Aragorn, the true heir of Gondor, and Gandalf.
He didn't know who Merlin was, so there was no way this voyeur was staring at a stranger.
There are two more, one snatched by the big-eyed Sauron Ringwraith, currently in Mordor.
But Merlin didn't feel Sauron's unique, seductive spiritual power from the peep just now, and it must not be him.
There is also the most likely, the one in the hands of Issinger's white-robed Saruman, and only he will be idle and peep around.
"I want to meet the future boss so soon, if I can't come in a hurry, there will be this opportunity."
Merlin thought about it, and looked up at somewhere in the sky and smiled indifferently, then disturbed the magic to block this peeping.
He didn't have a penchant for being watched, so let Saruman calm himself down.
……
On the other side, in the Kalahoras Mountains, he was blocked by Saruman's spell, and Gandalf was unwilling and helpless, and he was helpless.
Gandalf had always had a fear that the dwarves had been too greedy to dig for the treasures of the Moria's pits.
So much so that later, digging too deep, awakened the fire demon hiding under the Moria mine.
He had a hunch that this would be the biggest problem for the Fellowship of the Ring, and he really didn't want anyone in the team to lose because of it.
Gandalf sighed slightly, turned to one of the short but spirited hobbits and said, "Let the Ring-bearer make a choice, Frodo?" ”
"Let's go to the mines!"
Frodo, who was curled up by the cold wind, first glanced at the people around him, then at his good friend, and after receiving encouragement, he responded categorically.
Frodo knew the seriousness of the matter, but taking a shortcut to the snowy mountains would speed up the journey to Mordor, but it was too dangerous.
He also saw the embarrassment and helplessness in Gandalf's eyes, this time the team was all about escorting him to Mordor, and he couldn't ignore the safety of his teammates, so he chose to go the other way.
"Then it's decided."
Gandalf stared at Frodo tightly, a little relieved in his eyes, but more helpless.
Soon they changed their route, returning to the Snowy Mountains instead of climbing the Snowy Mountains, and instead of starting from the Moriath Mines beneath the Misty Mountains.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Gandalf suddenly looked up and glanced in a certain direction, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"What's the matter, Gandalf, is there danger in that direction?"
Legolas, the sharp-eyed elven archer, saw Gandalf pause and couldn't help but look in that direction as well, but he didn't see anything, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing...... Keep going. ”
Gandalf frowned slightly, but quickly relieved himself and said quietly.
"Well, it's really Maia, this spirit is too sensitive, but yes, after all, this is Gandalf."
Above the sky, Merlin, who had long been hiding in flight, couldn't help but sigh.
As soon as he approached, he felt a powerful magical aura, thinking that he had met the Fellowship of the Ring by such a coincidence, and wanted to speed up his pace to approach, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Gandalf directly.
"Well, but it's good that the mighty Gandalf needs to learn from him."
Merlin didn't choose to continue past the Fellowship, but flew towards the entrance to the Moria's pit, waiting for them at the end point.
It was a hundred-meter-high wall, but most of it had been abandoned for a long time and had become a pile of ruins.
Soon, Merlin came to a misty and eerie lake and found the door to the Moria mines.
"Boom!"
Suddenly the sound of water sounded in the nearby lake, and a huge octopus stretched out its tentacles, trying to entangle Merlin.
"Bang Bang Bang"
A huge lightning bolt swept by, and the smell of meat suddenly appeared in front of the door of the Moria's mine.
……

Hey, it's too hard to write about a world you can't write, so I decided to start with the next chapter.
Speed is done!
