A moment later, the nine members of the Ring Guard team, talking and laughing, made their way to the Moria Pit, and cautiously walked along the lake.

"The door made by the dwarves is invisible when it is closed, but it certainly doesn't bother me."

The dwarf Jin Li held a steel axe, kept knocking on the wall, and said with some excitement.

Since the Moria Mines were his cousin's domain, coming here was like coming home, and he had already thought of waiting for them to be warmly entertained.

The roaring flames, the large bowls of ale, and the large pieces of roasted meat, all of which made him so intoxicated that he could not go in and eat them at once.

"That's not necessarily, Jin Li, if you forget the secret language, the dwarves themselves may not be able to enter." Gandalf's words came from the front with a slight smile.

"Why don't I find it strange that dwarves forget secret words?"

Legolas smiled quietly, for some reason, he liked to talk to Jin Li very much.

"That'...... Well? Barbecue! I smell the barbecue! ”

Jin Li was about to retort, but his sensitive nose suddenly twitched, and then quickly ran to the front and sniffed, shouting in surprise.

When he first smelled it, he thought it was an illusion, but when he got closer, he was sure that there was really a smell of barbecue in front of him.

"Be vigilant, it's not normal!"

Aragorn has traveled to so many places that he has seen so much, and this eerie place seems to have been abandoned for many years, and it does not look like there are still living people.

The four weak hobbits shrank together and followed Gandalf.

"Don't panic friend, this must be my cousin Balin is barbecuing and waiting to entertain us, let's hurry up!"

Jin Li waved the axe in his hand, blew his beard, and ran to the front with an excited face.

The crowd was forced to follow, and soon turned a big bend and came to a sandy beach by the lake.

"It's the enemy! Protect Frodo! ”

Legolas' eyes sharpened, and at a glance he saw an oversized octopus hanging from the old tree by the lake.

The young man in the black robe actually gave birth to a flame to burn one of the tentacles out of thin air, and there were some spice bottles sprinkled with spices on it.

The tentacles of the octopus were mixed with spices and flames, and then made a sizzling sound, and the fragrance emitted made everyone who had slept all the way swallow.

But they also had the task of escorting the One Ring to Mount Doom to destroy Sauron, so they didn't dare to be careless, and they took out their weapons and aimed them at Merlin.

"Don't panic, he's not an enemy, he's not malicious."

Gandalf raised his staff and motioned for the group to drop their weapons, then continued to speak to Merlin.

"Mage from afar, don't you know what happened to you finding us?"

Although there was a reason for meeting him before, Gandalf immediately revealed his identity, so that Merlin did not dare to slack off, and quickly got up to respond.

"I have admired Gandalf the Grey Wizard for a long time, and I want to come and ask you about witchcraft.

Of course, in return, I can escort the One Ring to Mount Doom on your behalf, and even help you destroy Sauron! ”

didn't hide it, it was so direct, Merlin directly reported all the mission objectives of the Ring Guard.

On the other side, the Ring Guard team did not feel much joy in their hearts when they heard this, but instead increased their vigilance, because this kind of person who knew their destination was either the enemy or the enemy's minions.

And this man is also called a mage by Gandalf, and is obviously not an ordinary enemy.

But Gandalf's reaction was unexpected, and instead of raising his vigilance, he fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about whether this path would work.

Merlin also took the opportunity to take a look at the appearance of the most famous melee mage in the Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms.

Gandalf was dressed in a gray robe, his lips were dry, his face was wrinkled but not old, and his beard and hair were also very moist, presumably due to the melting snow.

But those slightly cloudy eyes revealed a hint of wisdom, like a wise man who has seen through the changes of time and comprehended the truth of all things.

Merlin felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, as if he was facing the old Merlin from the Harry Potter world.

"Who are you, what is the purpose of approaching us!"

As Merlin shifted his gaze from Gandalf to the others, Boromo muttered.

He was the eldest son of the Lord Regent of Gondor, and in order to find strength to protect the people, he joined the Fellowship of the Ring.

He had been tempted by the One Ring at the moment, and he couldn't help but see Merlin as an enemy who wanted to snatch the One Ring.

"I am a mage who walks in the heavens, don't panic, I have no interest in the One Ring."

No, it's fake, Merlin realized that he had unwittingly shifted his mind to the neck of one of the hobbits, which was where the One Ring was located.

He couldn't help frowning, he found that he had underestimated the power of the One Ring, and he was almost tempted.

But the One Ring was too chicken, and Merlin really didn't want it, so he simply turned his gaze to the others.

Suddenly, he was attracted by a beautiful boy dressed as a ranger, and he couldn't help but release a few true eyes and keep observing.

This move made everyone can't help but take a half step back, thinking that Merlin is going to be rough and wants to do something to them.

Merlin said that he didn't care, because he felt that the world had come to the right place!

In the True Eye, Gandalf and the staff in his hand were like a large light bulb, almost blinding Merlin's eyes.

In addition, the Fellowship of the Ring is covered with white light, and those are all converging magic!

Merlin was sure that it wasn't Gandalf's spell, or the result of the Great Bulb Staff.

This shows Merlin that the people of Middle-earth are very unusual, because these are mage apprentices, and they can become mages with a little training!

Generally speaking, as long as you can gather magic power, people who sense magic power have the potential to become mages.

In the Norland world, it relies on magic weapons to detect whether the body can attract magical elements to determine whether it can become a mage.

After Merlin learned about the principle of this magic weapon, he incorporated it into the True Eye, so he didn't need a magic weapon now to test whether a person could have the potential of a mage.

Now, in his eyes, the Fellowship of the Ring is all quality mage apprentices!

It may be the treatment of the protagonist group, but Merlin quickly vetoed the idea, because it is absolutely impossible for these eight people to be so coincidental, all of them are people with elemental affinities.

Because the members of the Fellowship of the Ring were all from various countries or races, he thought of a possibility for a moment, that is, how many people in the entire Middle-earth world had elemental affinities?

Does this mean that there may be a large number of high-quality apprentices in Middle-earth who can become mages?

Except for Hogwarts in the Harry Potter world, he didn't find anywhere else that there were so many people.

Not to mention Marvel, Kama Taj is so few that even the spell system is borrowed.

But this Middle-earth, where there is no mage system, has so many elemental affinities......

What if he built a school of magic in Middle-earth?

……

It's a little late, sorry, boo.
