[The Hobbit] Farstrider's Journey

Seeing that Thranduil lost his balance, Hua Lai stretched out his arms and wrapped them around his shoulders.

Almost fell down in embarrassment, the elf king was frightened and angry.But Hua Lai hugged him so that he didn't know what to say for a while.

Hua Lai felt that he was a bit reckless, but that was because Thranduil turned around too quickly!He didn't even have time to speak.

Hua Lai said in a very calm voice: "Thranduil, do you think I am someone who doesn't take my own life seriously?"

Thranduil obviously didn't think so, and what he was struggling with was not at all.

He turned around and said, "No."

When he turned his head, Hua Lai realized that it was too close, so he let go of his hand and said to him: "Warlocks are very serious about protecting their spells."

After all, they deal with demons. Warlocks use magic to protect themselves, such as absorbing the life of others to provide themselves, directly making soul stones—similar to the lich's phylactery, making healing gems, etc.It can be said that the warlock is a profession that becomes stronger and stronger, and his own shortcoming may only be limited by endurance.

But these are not the focus of his plan this time, Hua Lai insisted on showing it to Thranduil, so he asked Thranduil to wait for him for a while.

After he came back, he said to the inexplicable Thranduil: "Be careful."

Then he smiled at the other party, and disappeared in the same place in an instant.

This surprised Thranduil.He turned around and saw that the wilderness was empty, only Beorn's home in the distance, and there was no figure of Hua Lai in sight.

Thranduil couldn't help shouting loudly: "Wallet?! Where are you?"

The wind in the wilderness still carried the heat of the day, but Thranduil couldn't feel it right now, his hands and feet felt cold.

"Wallet?" Thranduil ran towards the direction he left just now.

After a while, he saw Hua Lai running over on the baron's horseshoe. He was relieved and stood where he was. When Hua Lai approached, he finally couldn't help complaining, "Where did you disappear to?" ? Startled me."

Hua Lai saw that his face had turned a little paler, and he said with pride and a little regret: "This is how I get out, aren't you curious?"

Thranduil was of course curious, and Wallai stretched out his hand to pull him. Thranduil climbed onto the baron's back, and Wallai led him to the place where he had just set up the magic circle.

When he got to that place, Thranduil saw a circle with a diameter of only two meters, with four slightly smaller circles inlaid on the side.The entire magic circle is green, and it is hidden in the meadow above the wilderness in summer, and it is impossible to see it if you don't pay close attention.

"Have you seen this magic circle? As long as I'm above this wilderness, I can teleport to this location at any time, even if the orc army surrounds me, it's useless!" Hua Lai said firmly.

Thranduil opened his mouth slightly in surprise, then sighed and said, "You really shocked me too much, Wallace. What kind of spell is this?"

He had never heard of it, even the native white-robed wizard couldn't do this kind of space movement spell.

"Devil teleportation array." Hua Lai said: "However, this teleportation array can only be used by warlocks themselves, but our mages can locate the main city, and anyone can use it. I can't compare with mine." .”

"This is also very remarkable." Thranduil said sincerely, "The spells in the world of Azeroth are very different from those in the world of Middle-earth."

"Now you can rest assured." Hua Lai said with a smile.

It was only then that Thranduil felt how stupid it was for him to blame the other party without knowing the inside story, and he said annoyedly: "You must think that I am very stupid and ridiculous."

Hua Lai hurriedly said: "How come! You did this because you cared about me. To be honest, I'm really happy because we get along like real friends now. It's not as polite as before." Although he knew many kings, he had never really become friends with a king.

Since he came out, Thranduil completely took off the king's coat during the trip, and became as approachable as an ordinary person, and Wallace felt closer to him.

If he hadn't insisted on coming out with the other party this time, maybe the feeling between the two wouldn't have developed so quickly.

"Friend." Thranduil chewed these two words, then his eyes flashed, he nodded and said, "Of course I'm your friend."

As if he had found a certain position, Thranduil regained his spirits, Hua Lai dispersed the teleportation array, and urged the fearful steed to gallop towards the dark forest.

It wasn't too long since they came out, and Hualai planned to find the brown-robed wizard Redagast by himself, so that Thranduil could go back to the Woodland Kingdom first to handle the mobilization of food and grass, and prepare for the march.

But Thranduil firmly refused.

In the final analysis, the threat of orcs is actually not related to Hua Lai at all, isn't it?

He was acting entirely for the forest elves, and Thranduil was very grateful for this. At this time, he was more willing to do this with Wallace.

Hua Lai saw that his attitude was firm, so he stopped insisting, and the two walked back along the familiar road Hua Lai.

Of course Wallace didn't know where the black-robed wizard lived, and even Thranduil only knew that he lived in the western part of the Gloomy Forest.

But Wallace knows that there is a guide who will definitely lead him to find Redagast, that is Miller the little squirrel!

The little squirrel is sticking to its post, watching the movements of the spiders and orcs in the forest conscientiously. It holds the nuts kindly provided by the elves when it left the woodland kingdom in its paws.

"Squeak~~~" Miller blissfully chewed on the hard shell of the nut with his rice grain-like front teeth, then stuffed Bai Shengsheng's sweet, sweet and crunchy nuts into his mouth, and chewed.

Thinking that there are a lot of nuts waiting for it to enjoy in the tree hole, the big fluffy tail is flicking happily. The elf is so kind, and it must be a guest after it changes its guard.

The round and small ears trembled, and Miller dropped the husk, spun around the thick tree trunk and climbed up. Standing on the branch and looking out, the black peas-like eyes were all shining, it was the elf with long ears!

Explain to Miller the purpose of coming, and the little squirrel is very happy to lead the way for the two.

After entering the forest, Wallace and Thranduil had no choice but to abandon the baron and walk on the spider's territory on foot. Fortunately, with Miller as a guide, they avoided the spider's lair on the way and arrived at the dark forest smoothly of the Northwest.

Before meeting Redagast, Wallace guessed that one of the five rare wizards in Middle-earth was tall and majestic-refer to the great wizards in Dalaran.Even if he is not highly respected, at least he should be kind and kind, right?

Unfortunately, all these good wishes were shattered.

Miller brought Wallace and Thranduil to a place with lush greenery and tall trees.

At first, Wallace didn't feel anything wrong, until Thranduil said loudly: "Redagast, are you there? Someone is here to visit."

Hua Lai was taken aback for a moment, only then did he realize that inside the crooked roots of a big tree in front of him was a dilapidated house that had been pulled out of shape by the growth of the tree!

Perhaps this house was once neat and beautiful when it was first built, but now it is completely integrated with nature.

"Are you sure it's this place?" Wallace said to the Elf King in disbelief: "This place can still live?!"

His tone was so startled that even Thranduil was not sure. Speaking of which, the brown-robed wizard had been living in the northwest of the Gloomy Forest for a long time, but he had never met such an erratic wizard before. .

Miller squatted on a large rotten tree trunk, raised his two little paws in front of him, and called out "squeaky".

Thrandil paused and said, "Miller is sure that's here. He's not here now, so he should be out."

Hua Lai had nothing to say, his eyes were fixed on the extremely wild house.

It was also their luck. After a while, a disheveled and unkempt old man came back driving a car pulled by a rabbit, yelling loudly.

A car pulled by a rabbit!

Six strong rabbits with gray fur were running around, nimbly turning around in the forest. From time to time, the car seemed to fly gracefully.

Wallace stabbed Thranduil's waist, and he immediately grabbed his fingers.

Hua Lai didn't care, and just asked the Elf King in a low voice, in disbelief: "Could it be this person?!"

incredible!

He actually used the word twice today!

This was so unusual for a blood elf who had lived for a thousand years, he thought he would not be stunned by any strange things.

Thranduil pinched his fingers without moving, and said softly, "It should be him."

The lawn cart slid on the ground and made a "rustling" sound, and the brown-robed wizard apparently also saw the two elves standing at the door of his house.

"It's so strange that there are visitors." Redagast said to himself in amazement, and then happily said to the two visitors, "Who are you?" He turned his head and saw the squirrel : "Oh! Miller, what's the matter?"

He even left the two elves aside in a blink of an eye, and chatted happily with the squirrel.

Miller was very enthusiastic and actively introduced Wallace to Thranduil.

Redagast immediately regarded the two as friends, how could a person who likes small animals be a bad person.

"Please sit in the room!" With disheveled hair and a dry lump left by a suspicious yellow-white liquid on one side, the brown-robed wizard enthusiastically opened the door and invited the guests to enter.

Is this kind of dilapidated house really okay? !

Redagast didn't notice the hesitation on the faces of the two guests. Instead, he took off his pointed wizard hat and said in his mouth, "Oh! Look at me, I forgot. You're home, little birds."

There was actually a bird's nest formed by spiraling hair on his head, and the two little birds flew away from the nest immediately.

Seeing the two elves staring at him blankly, Redagast happily explained: "It's time for them to go out for food."

Hua Lai swallowed, and compared the various mages with eccentric personalities in Azeroth, this brown-robed wizard beat them ten blocks!
