Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

In 2954, the long-dormant Mount Doom erupted again, with hot magma flowing down and a lot of dust rising into the sky above Mordor.

Since then, Mount Doom has erupted frequently. People who are close to Mordor can always see scarlet light and billowing black smoke when they stand on a high place and look east.

It was also in this year that the last batch of refugees from Ithilien moved into Gondor. From then on, only soldiers from Gondor and Mordor remained on this land, and it truly became a place of dispute.

It was also when this batch of refugees retreated that Levi came to Gondor again. On the one hand, he was alarmed by the situation of Mount Doom and came to check it out, and on the other hand, he also came to see the situation of the base here and cover the refugees' retreat.

By the way, since he was idle, Levi simply helped Gondor repair the walls of the ruined city of Osgiliath and the huge arch bridge used for passage.

Because Levi's speed was too fast, when the news was passed back to Gondor, he had almost finished repairing half of the wall.

To show his respect, Ecthelion came directly from the White City to express his gratitude, and then sent his son, Denethor, the then commander of the White City, to assist Levi.

This tall young commander was obedient to Levi's words and never hesitated to do anything he was told to do.

With the full cooperation of the Gondor side, it didn't take long for the city wall to be as good as new, and the arch bridge could be used normally.

The army traveled on it, and the ships shuttled through the bridge hole below - mainly the merchant ships of Roadside Castle and the crew members who graduated from Roadside Castle School who passed by here for trial voyage.

After doing these things, Levi left. As for the reward and other things, he didn't mention it at all.

It can only be said that Gondor is almost the same as his own home.

When Levi returned to Roadside Castle, it was also the time when the trainee rangers graduated two years ago.

During the ceremony, Levi personally put medals on the outstanding rangers.

The number of candidates for the Outstanding Ranger selection is not fixed. Anyone who has made outstanding contributions and has strong personal abilities may be recommended.

Of course, the recommendation standard is not low. The first point is to be recognized by other people in the team.

And the Outstanding Ranger Badge is not only available during internships. Those who have made outstanding contributions in their future service careers or have proved that they are indeed capable and experienced can also get it.

But if you want to get this badge in a short period of time, you have to do something.

Just like Aragorn, he was formally recommended after he challenged a troll to prove his personal strength, sneaked into the enemy camp alone to bring back important intelligence, and came up with a plan to take only a few dozen people to unexpectedly raid and destroy a medium-sized camp with at least 200 orcs.

In fact, these things he did have already exceeded the standard, and half of them would be enough to be rated as an Outstanding Ranger.

But it is obvious that Aragorn is not a person who is content with his lot. He can always make some unexpected and bold actions.

Compared with what he did, the other four may be a little worse, but they are all worthy of the name. They are either strong and agile, or have other outstanding things, or have participated in enough battles, and their accumulated achievements are quite outstanding.

"Well done."

Levi finally put the medal on Aragorn and asked:

"How about it, do you have any plans in the future? Do you want to continue to stay here? With your ability, you can directly lead a full-strength assault team of 200 people. You may become a commander in chief after working for a few more years."

To be honest, Aragorn hesitated for two seconds when he heard the conditions.

Being the commander of the army here, there is really no one except Levi who can manage it.

Of course, the commanders of the territorial army are strictly selected, and they will not do anything that needs to be managed.

"It's good here, but-"

Aragorn replied: "There are more places that need my help."

"Good boy."

Levi said: "Then go, come back anytime."

After that, he grabbed his shoulders again and made him turn around and look at his teammates.

Arwen, who was also wearing the medal of excellence, and was Aragorn's leader, came over and said, "I know you don't belong here, but this can always be your home."

They hugged each other.

That night, the whole team saw Aragorn off.

And Aragorn looked at these comrades and was quite emotional.

"I will never forget the experiences I have shared with you, nor will I forget everything I have learned here."

He raised his eyebrows at Arwen.

Arwen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows with him.

"That's all you learned?"

…

Isengard.

Compared with the White Council held a year ago, this place has changed a little bit at this moment.

The most obvious point is that there are more people guarding the tower, and the walls and iron gates at the entrance of Isengard, that is, on the south side of the plain in the valley, have also been reinforced.

The owner here seems to be guarding against something.

"Orcs."

"Dirty and ignorant, without any merit, like reptiles, useless."

At night, at the edge of a forest, a conspicuous white figure stood on a high ground, looking down at the orcs with their heads bowed below.

"You guys want to serve me?"

Saruman looked at the group of orcs with disgust.

"We can swear, swear to you!" The orc leader prostrated himself on the ground.

"Your will is our goal. We will do whatever you want us to do, as long as you can protect us..."

While making promises, the Orc leader felt bitter in his heart.

Didn't those damn barbarians say that the White Wizards would accept us? What a bunch of liars!

"Can you do anything?"

At this moment, Saruman's words showed a hint of hope.

"Even if you disobey the orders of the Dark Lord?"

The Orc leader froze.

Although Sauron is nominally the master of all Orcs and Wargs, his control over this side is not as strong as that of the Orcs in Mordor.

The difference is that the leader in Mordor is only recognized by Sauron, but the Orcs in the Misty Mountains can give birth to their own leaders, and even if the leader is strong enough, they can bargain with Sauron to a certain extent.

Sauron directly controls the Orcs in Mordor, but indirectly controls this side.

Their ideological imprint is not so strong.

"We are willing."

The Orc leader made a decision.

Sauron was too far away to protect them, but Saruman was right in front of them.

"Hmph, maybe you are not useless after all."

"Go, live in the dark place, you must obey all my orders, and you can't touch the places I forbid, understand?"

"We understand, master."

The Orcs left.

Saruman looked at the group of Orcs and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Now, the Dunlendings and the Orcs near Dunlendings are all at his disposal.

The Dunlendings obey Saruman because he doesn't care about their setting foot on the territory of Rohan, condones them to cross the border through Isengard, and even supports them to "take back the land."

The Orcs, on the other hand, are protected by Saruman and work for him in secret.

Of course, whether it is the Dunlendings or the Orcs, they will never dare to extend their malice to the Lonely Land or even the entire land west of the Misty Mountains.

They will set foot on the territory of Rohan, in the name of "revenge" and "taking back their homeland."

Border disputes are about to begin.
