"What do you know?"

Although Gandalf eliminated his hostility towards Townew because of the Mithril Ring, it did not mean that Gandalf would trust Townsend completely.

As a wizard who had walked Middle-earth for thousands of years, he had the ability to judge and not obey Townsend just because he had a gift from Iluvita.

"You know who I'm talking about." Tang Sen said, "That Dark Monarch is entrenched in the shadow of Mordor, Sauron. ”

"As a wizard, you should have a foreshadowing."

Gandalf's palms unconsciously clenched his staff, and his voice was low: "I did notice some signs. ”

"Orc has left the Misty Mountains in a rare way, even the Shire have their traces, and rumors of trolls are increasing, and there is a force, a powerful dark force that is interfering with all this."

"I've heard of a necromancer appearing in Doguldu, and he's awakened the sleeping undead, and I'm going to investigate-"

"My advice is that it's better not to go." Tang Sen took over and said, "It has become the nest of the Oaks, the Oaks all over the mountains. ”

"And a Maia who has been secretly accumulating power for thousands of years, ready to move."

"I'll see with my eyes." Gandalf stubbornly uttered the phrase again, "If Sauron does appear there, it is my duty to eliminate him... At the very least, get rid of it. ”

He paused for a moment, and suddenly doubted, "How do you know this?" It's at least a few hundred miles away from Dogurdu, and it's separated by the Misty Mountains in between! ”

"Travelers know a lot, much more than you think." Tang Sen said leisurely: "For example, I know the whereabouts of the Supreme Ring. ”

"The One Ring?!"

Gandalf took a sharp step back, finally losing his composure.

"That ring has been left in the sea along the great river of Anduin, and has not been seen for thousands of years!"

"No, it's still fine in Middle-earth." "Right in front of us, somewhere in the Misty Mountains, trust me, you wouldn't want Sauron to find it sooner than we do." ”

"Impossible... It's impossible! Gandalf's gray-gray hair was windless: "If it was in the Misty Mountains, Sauron would have gotten it all these years, and Middle-earth would have already fallen. ”

"Unless the current owner of the Ring is not willing to expose the Ring to Sauron, it has hidden the Ring in a secret, dark corner, for hundreds of years." Tang Sen finished this paragraph in a slow tone, and suddenly changed the subject:

"Of course, there's no point in saying that now, we still have a journey to go on, and you'll always see the ring with your own eyes."

"Until then, I'll always look forward to the look on your face when you see it."

Townsend did not disclose further information.

For Gandalf, who has lived for countless years, Tangsen has never had the idea of controlling the other party, and it is impossible to control it, but the advantage of information can allow him to influence the behavior of the other party to a certain extent-

This takes a step-by-step approach, and patience and proportionality are indispensable.

In fact, in the original plot, Bilbo Baggins will soon be able to get the One Ring unexpectedly, if you wait for that accident to happen, the process of obtaining the One Ring will be a lot less troublesome, but when you come to this world, you will naturally have a butterfly effect, not to mention that you have already contacted Gandalf.

It is uncertain whether that accident will happen.

Townsend never bases his plans on the unknown.

"For now, turn your attention to the most urgent matters, wizard." Townsend changed the subject.

"The most urgent thing is to confirm the existence of the One Ring!" Gandalf obviously did not want to be diverted from the subject, and said persistently: "This is about the safety of Middle-earth!" ”

"Oh." Tang Sen smiled and nodded, and said, "You can continue to ask, I have a lot of time, but I am afraid that this will sacrifice the thirteen Dulin dwarves you brought out, as well as a poor, innocent hobbit." ”

Gandalf was stunned for a moment: "What are you talking about?" ”

"As I said, travelers know a lot of things." Townsend emphasized this point, and then said, "While you are sleeping soundly, the dwarves should be playing happily with the trolls, and now it is estimated that they will be made into dwarven kebabs." ”

He smiled wickedly.

"I wonder if the Thorin Oak Shield has an oak smell when baked?"

......

"It's hot, it's hot, it's hot!"

Deep in the trolls jungle, the fire illuminates the surrounding trees red, and on the huge grill, the dwarves are evenly tied to a thick log, and an ogre slowly spins the log, trying to heat each dwarf evenly.

It was almost four meters tall, and even if it squat next to the fire, it looked like a small house, and its blue-gray skin was like stone, in fact, those skin were indeed as hard as stone, and ordinary swords could only leave a shallow mark on it.

This is not something that ordinary people can deal with at all, and it can be seen from the surrounding battle marks and the shallow scars near the trolls' ankles that this is not something that thirteen dwarves and one hobbit can deal with.

Even, every toe of them is intact!

"You don't have to roast it slowly, do you?"

There were three trolls in total, and the voice came from the other trolls who were sitting on the side and waiting, and he obviously didn't have much patience, he walked around anxiously, muttering: "Let's sit down one by one, and press them into meat sauce, clean and hygienic!" ”

"I'm cooking, I'm in charge, they should be roasted and sprinkled with a little sage." The trolls spinning logs said elegantly.

"Have the ability to let us go!" The ingredients on the log shouted vigorously, relying on the natural fire resistance of the dwarves, they were still alive for the time being, and some even scolded angrily: "What kind of ability is it to eat big and small!" ”

The trolls obviously didn't care about the idea of the ingredients, and licked their lips, "Sage is fishy, it sounds good." ”

At this time, Townsend and the escort team had just arrived nearby.

As soon as Shalin saw the scene on the grill, he immediately couldn't hold it back, and roared angrily: "It's Thorin Oak Shield's team!" Damn trolls! Let's go together! Smash their toes! ”

Fortunately, there were many dwarves roaring over there, and Shalin's voice did not attract the attention of the trolls, and Gandalf hurriedly blocked in front of her:

"Don't be impulsive, trolls don't have brains on their toes, and smashing their toes will only make them angrier!"

"Do you just watch them get roasted?" Shalin was furious, and if it weren't for the wizard's high status among the dwarves, she would have almost pushed Gandalf away.

"Recklessness will only make you food for trolls, and it won't save them!" Gandalf muttered, "Unless you try to kill them with numbers. ”

"......" Townsend laughed, "I didn't expect wizards to have this sense of humor. ”

Gandalf glared at him and said quickly, "Since you already know what is happening here, do you already have a solution?" ”

"It's just two kinds."

Tang Sen pointed to the sky: "First, the sky is about to dawn, and the jungle trolls can't withstand the sun, they just need to find a way to let the sun shine on them, and they will naturally turn into stone statues." ”

"Thorin can't wait that long!" Sarin roared.

"Then there's only the second one."

Tang Sen stretched out his hand: "Rush over and smash them." ”
