[Lord of the Rings] Dragon and Elf King

Iruber, the kingdom under the mountain, the stronghold of the great dwarf king Sol.Here are the most precious gems, the rarest metals, and the most exquisite craftsmanship.

The Iruber dwarves became great here, and fell completely when the city was shattered.Wandering, he had to do low work for his livelihood, even the once noble dwarf prince had to succumb to the pressure of life.But now, the dwarves have returned to the city, and it has become alive again from the dead, and it has also brought hope of prosperity to the people.At least, that's what the humans in Changhu Town hope.

Bud looked up at the city in the mountains and the lonely mountain, his eyes slightly closed.

Knowing that he heard the sound of the city gate opening and someone coming out, he got off the horse, adjusted his clothes, patted the horse's head, and finally handed the reins to his son, and followed the dwarf who came out to greet him into this place. A legendary city.

Lonely Mountain, just like his name, is a lonely mountain. There are no other peaks on its side, lonely and silent, and Iruber is built inside the mountain.The dwarves hollowed out the mountain with their own hands, and then poured bronze into it to build an incomparable huge dome. After looking up, people have no other feeling except worship.

Bud tugged at his collar unconsciously, always feeling that the high collar that tightly strangled his neck made him feel very uncomfortable.

The wealth of the dwarves is evident in this city.Although the traces of the fierce battle can still be seen, it is now only a symbol of valor for the dwarves who finally won the war.

Bud followed the dwarf in front, and the dwarf who led the way would introduce him to the surrounding scenery, which seemed very friendly.

But Bud was secretly anxious in his heart.

He had given it to Dan before he came.Tie Zuo wrote a letter, in which he clearly stated his intention and hoped to get his help, and Dan.Ironfoot also replied to the letter asking him to come to Iruber for a talk.

Since we are going to talk, it proves that there is still hope.Bud was very happy after receiving the letter, and immediately set off for Iruber.But now he felt that it was too early for him to be happy.

If Dane.Ironfoot wanted to help them, so he should meet him as soon as possible instead of letting him waste time here.Even if the conditions were put forward unceremoniously, it proved that there was still room for negotiation, but now he was being taken to wander around Ilubury, as if it was just an ordinary visit between the two, not asking for help.

Bud's heart gradually cooled down.

The throne of the Iruber Kingdom is located in the center of the city. Like the Jungle Palace, the aisles are narrow and there are no barriers around it, which not only shows the king's supremacy and dignity, but also prevents assassinations.

Dane III.Ironfoot was sitting on Thor's throne back then, smiling and looking at Bard below.

Dane.An iron-footed attitude, if you want to say politeness, this is not considered polite, after all, politeness can also stand up to express welcome to visitors.But if you want to say that you are welcome, he still had someone bring someone in, and he received him personally with a smile on his face.You must know that the proud King Thor just nodded to the coming elf king Thranduil from the throne.

Bard, who is already a lord, is not dressed in shabby clothes. It is already very incredible for a human being to become a lord from a commoner, even if he is the blood of the former lord.He looked at the familiar faces standing beside the king, and suddenly felt a sense of inconceivable illusion.Not long ago, he was just a fisherman, and they were just a group of poor dwarves who smuggled into Long Lake Town, but now, although he became the lord of Long Lake Town, those dwarves who helped him when he was poor were poorer than him. Even better, even after he slew their great enemy, Smaug the dragon, and yet he was here, seeking the help of the dwarves.

Bard didn't know how he felt, Thorin was dead, Dan.Ironfoot could completely ignore that his subjects had rejected his request for help, but he had no choice, although he had already vaguely guessed Dan.Iron foot means, but still can only come here to seek the last glimmer of hope.

The Elf King is already very angry because he helped the dwarves against his will. If the dwarves are here...

Bud was on Dan too.Tiezu nodded.Then I heard Dan.Ironfoot asked: "Spawn of Girion, welcome to Iruber."

When Bud walked out of Iruber again, the sky was already very dark, and the men and horses he brought were still waiting to enter the city outside the city. They were leaning against the roots of the tree, holding grass leaves in their mouths, with a look on their faces. The depression before sweeping became energetic.While they were happily discussing how wise it was to support the actions of the dwarves, and the aid of the dwarves would arrive soon, they saw his lord come out from the inside, and then slammed his sword to the ground.

"Father?" Bain, who already looked like a teenager, saw his father throwing the sword, and his expression was extremely bad, so he called out in surprise, and then Bud turned his head to look at the surprised group of people and said fiercely: "Go back .”

"Huh?" Bane thought he had heard wrong?Blinking his eyes, he was startled by Bud's yelling: "Get on your horses, go back!"

"Father! The dwarves...won't help us?" Bane asked cautiously.

"Hmph, dwarf..." Bud snorted coldly, stepped on his horse and turned his head, looking at the towering lonely mountain: "We will never come here again!"

"Why reject Bud? Dan." After Bud left, Groying immediately turned to Dan.iron footed.

"It's not that I don't want to help them, Groying, but do you think we still have people we can send?" Dan said.Tiezu sighed helplessly.There are five hundred dwarves, not too many, not too few, but Iruber is now waiting to be done, and there is really no one to help the humans in Changhu Town.

"We can give them some money." Dwalin slapped the tomahawk on the ground.

"Giving money can only save a moment. For wanting to restore the cooperative relationship as it was 60 years ago, this decision is very unfavorable." Give money, this Dan.It's not that Iron Foot didn't think about it, but he gave up in the end.

"Should we just let them go down like this? After all, they helped us!"

"Well, how about that." Dan said.Iron Foot shook his head with a headache and said: "Your agreement is to divide the treasure into fourteen shares. The hobbit didn't take it, and Thorin, Fili, and Kili all passed away, which means that all the treasures that belonged to them will also be lost." It will be shared equally with you, since you want to pay, you can decide for yourself. How much you think is appropriate, you can do it."

Although he felt that they would no longer accept it.

Thranduil has been summoning several important figures in the king for several days in a row. Even the important minister Ryan, who was sent to guard the southern border for many years after he felt that the southern border was abnormal, was called back by the king.

Ryan was just a little younger than Thranduil, and he had experienced countless wars. Thranduil handed over the southern border to him, so it can be said that he was very relieved.But after this incident, he still decided to call Ryan back to ask about the situation. As for the army... Isn't Legolas still there?Just let him take care of it for two days, just in time for some exercise.

In this way, Legolas, who was exhausted on patrol missions every day, was driven to the shelf again, and rushed to the army station without stopping, while Thranduil, who unceremoniously squeezed his son, was sitting behind the desk, Pointing his finger on the desktop, he signaled that Ryan, who had finished his salute, could sit down: "Is there any movement in the south recently?"

"No, Your Majesty." Ryan was not polite to Thranduil either. He had been with the king for so many years, and knew that the king didn't like fakes, so he didn't refuse, and sat down at the lower seat while answering.

"No..." Thranduil frowned a little irritably, he hated the feeling that I was out in the open and the enemy in the dark.

"Sauron has just regained his vitality, and maybe he doesn't have the strength to continue his activities after sending troops to Moria." Ryan speculated.However, this is also based on the fact that he has stayed at the southern border all year round and knows the situation ahead, so he dared to make such speculations, and based on his rigorous personality, Thranduil also knew that he generally would not say things that he was not sure about.

Thranduil propped his temples with one hand, and raised his legs: "Since that's the case, what chance do you think we have of winning when we march into Dol Guldur now?"

Anriel, who was standing behind the king, was shocked by the king's words, but Ryan gave his conclusion very calmly: "Thirty percent."

Thirty percent?so low?

Raising one eyebrow, Thranduil motioned for Ryan to continue talking.

"Dol Guldur has been run by Sauron for so many years, and it is no longer what it used to be, and even though the half-orc army has left, but if you want to completely defeat Sauron, you can't use most of the kingdom's army. In this case, Your side and palace will be unprotected, and if the orc army that went to Moria suddenly returns, we may be defeated. Of course, there is also the case that you will go to command the battle yourself. But then I have to guess Sauron will definitely call back all his troops, and it will be very dangerous for us to attack from both sides."

"That is to say, we can only wait now." Thranduil lowered his head and put his hands on his forehead, so that people could not see his expression clearly.

"Yes." Ryan nodded.Seeing that Thranduil was deep in thought, he knew that there was nothing wrong with him, so he nodded to Anriel, and then stepped back lightly.

It seems that this incident has a great impact on the king.

Ryan walked quickly down the corridor, thinking as he walked.As a result, as soon as he reached the corner, a black figure rushed towards him. He stepped aside reflexively, and saw that figure's head hit the corner with a slamming sound, shook its body, and then made a snap , fell to the ground.

Hey, what's going on.Ryan was a little dumbfounded.

The author has something to say: It is expected that the next chapter will be high-energy~hahaha~ The plot is well thought out, but I don’t know if tomorrow’s [-] words will be enough~~
