Immorton

----------

The sound of orderly footsteps sounded on the avenue outside the Valley of the Ring, from which the combined army from Gondor would turn north and finally arrive at the black gate of Mordor.In Isilian's restless silence, the sound of birdsong rang out.In the rear, the team was in disarray. After a while, the two riders galloped forward, and the two riders drove into the forest.

"What's the matter?" Zheng Zha, who was wrapped in a mummy, asked.

"Like a code." Zhan Lan craned his neck to look around.

I saw two Gondor knights staying beside the horses of Aragorn and Gandalf for a while, then Hal Barad handed over the banner in his hand to the side riders, and steered his horses to the group of them: "It was Ithilian just now. A signal among patrolling knights, reporting that there is an ambush ahead, that he has encountered one of his own, and that he was injured."

"It's okay, I'm here." Cheng Xiao grinned, and then resentfully said, "Except for strange burns like Zheng Zha, there's nothing I can't heal with conventional injuries..."

After setting up camp at night, everyone gathered together to listen to the badly injured ranger tell his story: "...they untied me, dragged me into a hole, and then a gust of wind blew them up, and they all died... That man is good. Like saying 'hide well', 'I'll try to create chaos', er, there should be 'don't look for me'... The two hobbits also left from the same direction soon, they left a lot of useful things, Food, weapons, and that rope, without which I couldn't get down that mountain..."

Everyone looked at the elf dagger, elf rope, and the frying pan on the ground, and were speechless for a while.

After half a sound, someone spoke. "That's a dark road," Gandalf said with a strange expression on his face. He was both worried and somewhat relieved. "However, they passed safely... Now, we can't help them, except to do our part well."

"It will be a glorious battle, no matter what the result is." Aragorn said simply, showing his dignity.

Leaving Cheng Xiao to treat the wounded, the other Zhongzhou team members returned to their tents.In the mind link, Chu Xuan was slightly dissatisfied: "...his chance of survival is very small. For the Zhongzhou team, the best result at that time should be that he managed to gain control of the Lord of the Rings and give up one of the hobbits. People, after we get close and get the Lord of the Rings, he will enter Modo again."

"It's a partner after all, it's not good to do this..." Zheng Zha suppressed his worries and explained patiently.

"This way the loss is the least, and I mentioned it to Grantriel, it is not difficult to repair it afterwards. Now, we basically don't get the Lord of the Rings, but fortunately, other teams don't expect the ring to be sent back. But Emerton's combat power is very strong. It is important and should not be used for consumption. He attaches too much importance to these people and confuses our purpose of coming here. After all, this is not our world." Chu Xuan analyzed coldly.

"Chu Xuan, if we think the same way in his world and do this, will he still join us?" Zheng Zha asked helplessly.

"As long as the situation is similar, of course it will." Chu Xuan did not hesitate.

"...However, what we said here is useless, I hope he can survive..." Zheng Zha knew that he could not convince Chu Xuan, so he could only smile wryly.

At this time, under the same sky, Sam dragged Frodo to escape from the orc army, turned around and headed towards Mount Doom again.

Frodo walked more and more slowly during the next few days, often waving his hand vacantly before his eyes, as if to ward off an invisible attack; Let go slowly.In addition to worrying, Sam also found that there was not enough water, so he had to drink less water.After a whole day without meeting a goblin, Sam helped Frodo throw off all his burdens—armor, weapons, even the elven cloak—and begin the last journey.In the early morning of the next day, when they reached the foot of the mountain, Frodo bent over and struggled as if a heavy iron had been put around his neck, and at last he fell headfirst to the ground and could not get up again.Sam picked him up, Frodo's eyes were half closed, too weak to speak, and he was lifted up on his back.Sam gritted his teeth: "I will carry you, even if I have to carry you all the way to the crater, I will send you up." He resolutely shouted, and walked with difficulty.

They didn't know that at the same moment, outside the black gate of Modo, the man who called himself "Mouth of Sauron" put the mithril armor and the rag-like black gold-patterned sacrificial robe on the open space between the two armies .

The faces of Aragorn and Gandalf, who had rushed forward and shouted, changed drastically.A distorted laugh suddenly came from Sauron's mouth: "It seems that the betrayer and the dwarf are important people to you, right? Don't worry, no matter why you choose these two powerless characters to spy on Modo, They have all been properly entertained. In fact, if you arrive a day or two late, the Betrayer may allow you to admire his new form... Surrender, resistance is futile. The master kindly gives you 10 A minute to think about it."

Following his words, the black iron gate behind him creaked and slowly opened, revealing the endless army of half-orcs and eastern and southerners behind him.

Gandalf said: "If your master wants anything, let him take it with the sword!"

The power of his words seemed to shake the heavens and the earth.Shocked, Sauron yelled, turned around and fled into the black gate.

The horn sounded.Mordo's army gradually began to move.

Aragorn and Gandalf looked at each other, and galloped back to the battle.Zheng Zha met their eyes: "We heard it. As long as Frodo is all right. As for Imerton's debt, this will be paid for him."

"...should be alive," Aragorn struggled, "but..."

"These things will be discussed after the war." Chu Xuan glanced back at the slightly disturbed army, "Mobilize before fighting."

Aragorn nodded heavily, pulled out the reforged King's Sword, and galloped back and forth at the front of the team, his voice spread: "...Maybe one day...and the courage of mankind will not be enough to resist the darkness—but not today. Today, we fight!"

At this time, in the mind link, Zheng Zha was asking Zhan Lan: "Still unclear? Just sweeping the volcano won't work? Didn't you see the hobbit just now?"

"... Unstable, not for a while. Just connected now, he said he was in the crater."

"What is 'in the crater'?" Chu Xuan asked.

"I don't know, I can't see. He's conscious though, but he's clearly in pain. The connection isn't stable, and I can't turn you around. Well, he said, once the Ring came into his line of sight , it means that Sauron also saw it. He asked me to connect with him and Zero Point, and snipe at the moment Sauron just turned his sight away."

"Zero is also wounded..." Zheng Zha hesitated.

"Ask Zero yourself. We don't know the situation inside, so we can only leave it to him." Chu Xuan calmly looked at the huge army that was oppressing him, and slipped his two guns into his hands, "We will hit us."

On the low slope where the army was stationed, everyone raised their weapons one after another.Facing the vicious enemy rushing like a huge wave, the army formed in a circle like a rock finally let out a fervent cry.In an instant, the two armies collided, the horses fell, the wolves fell, the giants fell, humans and orcs fell together, and the blood light reflected the dark world.

After being lifted up on all fours and climbing the last steep slope, Frodo seemed to have suddenly regained his spirits, and rushed to the glowing cavern, and threw Sam down the slope.Sam was so anxious that he almost slipped down the hill, and finally climbed up the hill. He hurried into the cave, but saw Frodo standing still, staring blankly at the magma bursting from time to time in the cracks under his feet.

"Throw that thing down, Mr. Frodo, what are you waiting for?" he cried, running across.

"Come and see." Frodo's voice was filled with extreme anger and fear.

Sam lowered his head and saw a mass of golden transparent liquid constantly rolling and flowing on the surface of the magma. Under the red light, it seemed to be struggling. The next moment, it formed a distorted face with eyes closed and mouth howling silently. disappear.

Sam jumped up. "Imorton!" he cried, almost crying, "how can this be! how can this be!"

"Sauron." Frodo paused. "Now I know why he said 'don't look for me'. He knows very well..."

At this time, a voice like a voice came from below: "... Frodo, you are here, I have been waiting." The liquid in the magma turned into that blurred face, shaking from time to time.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it could be," said Frodo bitterly.

"No, I chose this path." With his eyes closed, he could still smile, "You came just in time. Now listen, I may not be able to stay awake for a long time. The shackles of Sauron's magic power, undead of my level cannot resist , but you have a way—just destroy the ring, and I shall not continue to burn here, anyway."

Frodo clenched his hand into a fist, palm down, moved forward inch by inch, and then hovered in the air, but did not let go.

"Mr. Frodo?" Sam urged in a low, urgent voice.

Frodo trembled violently.

"Frodo, please." Imerton said in a low voice, suppressing himself, "please put an end to this."

Suddenly, a frantic voice at the mouth of the cave shouted, "No—my dear!" Gollum rushed towards them.

Emerton opened his eyes suddenly.

In an instant, Sauron's eyes fixed on this place, and the whole Modo shook angrily.

However, at this time, Frodo closed his eyes, opened his hand, and the only ring fell down with a faint golden light.At the same time, Gollum shouted "It's mine, mine!", and jumped off the cliff while running.

Almost no one noticed the crisp sound of the sniper rifle, but everyone on the battlefield saw the giant eye on the tower suddenly burst.

The magma was boiling, but Imerton's face was suddenly clear, and he shouted: "Go!" and soared into the air.
