"I've never seen you."

Gandalf did not respond to Townsend's displeasure, remaining wary and unfriendly, and even brought his staff closer in order to get a better view of Townsend's face.

"You don't look like a normal person, and in my experience, neither Gondor, nor Rohan, nor even the Haradians and pirates have the same blood as you."

"Oh, I'm from far away."

Tang Sen didn't respond to him directly, but turned to Shalin and said, "Take the dwarves around and leave some space for me and this impolite wizard." ”

Shalin looked at Tang Sen suspiciously, then at Gandalf, and hesitated, "You won't fight, will you?" I must warn you, Townsen. ”

"You can't beat him!"

"I've never liked to use violence to solve problems." Tang Sen said: "At least I won't. ”

"Okay..."Shalin beckoned the dwarves to take two steps, then turned around, raised the hammer, and said, "I will always keep an eye on this side, and if there is a fight, I will come right over!" ”

Tang Sen couldn't help but laugh: "Then you plan to help this wizard, or help me?" ”

"Shakun must be a good man, and I've heard a lot about him." Shalin said: "However, I swore an oath in the name of Dulin, so..."

She paused, "At least I have to make sure you don't get hurt." ”

"I'm safe, Sharin." "So, go around and walk around until I call you back." ”

If Gandalf is really ready to attack, even if he adds these dwarves, I'm afraid it won't be of much use, as a Maia, although most of his divine power is bound by the flesh, but those who underestimate him will not end well.

When the dwarves had gone far away, and no longer looked at the dwarves, Gandalf spoke again, saying, "I've been to many places, and your arguments may be able to deceive the dwarves, but they are not convincing to me. ”

"You don't belong to Middle-earth, you can't be from Valinor, who are you? What is the purpose? ”

"I hate explanations." Townsend sighed, "But if you don't get rid of one Maia's hostility, things will get troublesome. ”

He slowly took off his gloves and slowly extended his right hand towards Gandalf.

The hand crossed the boundaries of the moonlight in the shade of the tree, and the first half of the flesh vanished in an instant, and by the time Gandalf was a stone's throw away, it was all bones.

"I think that should explain the source of your hostility towards me."

Gandalf can be regarded as a master of the arts, although the scene in front of him is weird, but he has seen even stranger things, so he does not take a step back, but his face is more solemn.

"Undead? Undead? No, it doesn't feel like it. He muttered to himself, "You know where I'm from, it's not normal..."

"Your focus shouldn't be here, wizard." "Although most of your memories of being Maia have been sealed, I don't think it's possible for any Maia not to feel his breath. ”

"A breath from the world."

In the moonlight, the Mithril Ring glows mysteriously.

It caught Gandalf's eye, and then, Maia, who had been transformed into an old man, had a rare look of confusion on her face.

"Impossible......"

He almost whispered, "Illuvita ......"

"It's a gift from the world, wizard." Townsend thought as a Mithril coin appeared in the palm of the skeleton's hand, whirling and jumping in his knuckles.

"It's also a credential for travelers."

Middle-earth is a special world in which the creator God is real, He is the One, He is the world itself.

So, the Mithril Ring itself has already indicated its origin, a gift from the "world", and no other being has the authority to create such an item, and Townsend suspects that the Infinity Money Bag of the previous world is a similar product.

It's just that in the previous world, even the goddess Colybusso didn't recognize the origin of the infinite money bag, and Middle-earth was different.

This world, itself is still in the creation movement, whether it is Vera or Maia, and even all living beings, are part of the creation movement, although there are not many people who have seen Iluvita's existence in Middle-earth, but it happens that Gandalf is one of them, as Maia, he played music with Iluvita even before the existence of Middle-earth, and it is impossible for him not to feel the special nature of the Mithril Ring.

In fact, Townsend suspected that he was under the watchful eye of Vera at this time, and one or several, or even possibly, all the Veras had gathered together and had a grand feast, live-streaming what his creature from the Outlands was doing.

Of course, this kind of thing is not within the scope of Townsend's consideration, and he believes that although the role of the Mithril Ring is only used as a fund for the procurement task when it is given to him, this does not prevent him from using it to take advantage of it, and in a sense, it is also part of the procurement task.

As for exposing his golden finger because of this?

Risks and benefits always coexist, at least in Townsen's opinion, Gandalf knew that the existence of the Mithril Ring was not harmful to him, this Maia could not have any greed for Iluvita's gift, and it was impossible to easily reveal the existence of the Mithril Ring, which would cause a disaster even more serious than the One Ring, sweeping all the races in Middle-earth.

On the contrary, because his own purpose coincided with him to some extent, this wizard was naturally his help.

The benefits are big enough, the risks are small enough, and there is no need for Townsend to hide the golden finger.

"It's... The power of creation? Gandalf looked puzzled: "It doesn't make sense. ”

"Whether it's reasonable or not, you don't count."

Townsend withdrew his hand from the moonlight and put his gloves back on.

"Now, please take your staff away, or are you going to continue your hostility?"

Gandalf was silent for a moment, extinguishing the illumination, allowing Townsen's face to fall back into the shadow of the cloak.

"All of Illuvita's gifts have a deep meaning." He whispered, "But that's not something I need to explore. ”

He took a step back and said, "Traveler, please forgive an old man for getting up angry. ”

"Looks like our misunderstanding has been resolved." Tang Sen said: "Although you are not an old man, I accept your apology for the time being." ”

The atmosphere between the two eased.

"I'm curious, what is the purpose of a traveler hiring a group of dwarves to go to the Iron Hills?"

Gandalf said, "As I recall, the Iron Hills are also the domain of the dwarves. ”

"For the war, wizard." Townsend smiled: "A war is coming. ”

"The Enemy has awakened, he lurks in the shadows, ready to let darkness sweep through Middle-earth, and I need your help, Gandalf."

"The Great Enemy?"

Gandalf's brow jumped, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The tone in which this man spoke—

Why does it sound like something I often say to people!
