Chapter 244 Turned on location sharing
Chu Xin's move directly changed Frodo from the protagonist of "Lord of the Rings" back to an ordinary hobbit, and also led the world situation to an unknown and unpredictable path.
However, for Frodo, it may be a good thing. He doesn't have to suffer as much as in the movie, and he doesn't have to witness countless deaths and sacrifices. Instead, he lives quietly and peacefully in Sharton with Sam and other friends.
In a word, the karma left by Bilbo was intercepted by Chu Xin, which deepened his relationship with Sauron, and a love-hate relationship that stirred up the situation in Middle-earth kicked off.
Hu~hu~
Chu Xin flew out of Shire and flew along the magnificent and beautiful scenery in the north.
Until they climbed over a snow-covered mountain, a huge lake, as quiet as a gem, lay peacefully in the embrace of the mountains, flowing from west to east to the distant rivers.
Many dilapidated rock buildings are dotted by the lake, while on the south side, the huge city has been turned into ruins that no one cares about, and the magnificent palace built on the mountain collapsed into piles of rubble.
The tenacious weeds feed on the bones of soldiers and grow wildly in the streets and alleys of the past, showing a bit of vitality while showing desolation.
Even so, Chu Xin still glimpsed a trace of prosperity in the past.
The lake is called Twilight Lake, about 80 kilometers long from north to south, 32 kilometers wide from east to west, and about 160 kilometers away from Shire.
The city of ruins is called Annuminas, which was once the capital of Arno, the strongest human kingdom. It was completely annihilated due to civil strife among the princes and the invasion of the Witch King, but Aragorn, a descendant of the royal family, is still alive.
The Witch King Angmar is the head of the Ring Spirits and belongs to Sauron, so it can be seen that many changes in Middle-earth have been operated by Sauron behind the scenes.
Whoa!
Chu Xin lowered his height, landed steadily on the top of the mountain in the capital, and stepped on the collapsed palace and castle.
Next, he will do a major event that will affect the situation in China.
hum ~ hum ~
The Supreme Lord of the Rings floating in the wind in the chest has been emitting a faint and strange golden light, exuding a deceptive magic power, and continuously infiltrating Chu Xin's spiritual world.
However, Chu Xin's soul is thick and strong, and the Lord of the Rings is just doing useless work.
"Don't bother you, don't you just want me to wear it?"
As Chu Xin said, he inserted the front end of the slender phalanx of the Dragon Claw into the Supreme Ring.
In an instant, the 140-meter-long skeletal dragon disappeared out of thin air!
It was as if the gods had pressed the delete button.
But if you look closely, you can find that there are two more claw-shaped depressions in the ruins of the castle, which seem to be carrying heavy things.
"It's a pity that the Supreme Lord of the Rings only has power bonuses for Sauron, and other people wear it only for invisibility, and for revealing their own positions, and sharing their location with Sauron." Chu Xin said to himself.
And his small deliberate action is the fuse to ignite the explosives, which is enough to set off a stormy sea!
at the same time.
Mordor.
Boom boom boom!
The originally calm Eye of Sauron suddenly ignited clusters of raging flames.
His pupils dilated suddenly, and he stared fixedly at the northwest, acting very excited.
An invisible thread came from afar, connected with him, and shared with Sauron's nine ring spirits.
"After so many years, my time is finally coming again. Angmar and Kohamur, go and get back what belongs to me. No matter who it is, kill them all." Sauron thought so, conveying the voice of his thoughts out.
Following his orders, nine tall figures shrouded in pitch-black robes appeared.
There is only darkness and emptiness on their drooping faces, and there is also nothing at the joint between the cuffs and the armor on their hands.
It was as if nine invisible invisible men wore clothes and armor.
Nazgul, also known as Nazgul, Black Knight.
In the Second Era, the best of the nine humans obtained the nine Lord of the Rings corrupted by Sauron, gaining power, glory and wealth, but Sauron successfully controlled their souls and became slaves of the Lord of the Rings. A thing that is neither human nor ghost.
Among them, the two most powerful are Angmar and Kohamur.
The former proclaimed himself the Witch King and established the Kingdom of Witchcraft. He was one of the murderers who completely destroyed the Kingdom of Arno.
The latter was once the king of Dongyi, a generation of heroes who integrated many tribes, and followed Angmar after his fall.
Unfortunately, none of these nine human warriors could resist Sauron's erosion. More than 4000 years have passed, and now they are completely dark beings and Sauron's most loyal servants.
"My great master, we will surely take back your treasure, please wait for our triumphant return."
On the face of nothingness in Angmar's cloak, two burning flames lit up, these are his eyes.
The same is true for the other eight people, all of whom are full of enthusiasm, excited and looking forward to the coming dark age.
"Go, I don't want to procrastinate for a moment, these long useless days have made me angry, and Middle-earth will meet the fire of my anger that has been accumulated for thousands of years. At that time, I will personally execute Smaug who betrayed Lord Morgoth. , and make its bones into a chariot." Sauron howled angrily.
Da da da!
The nine ring spirits stopped moaning and rode away on ghostly black war horses.
In the air, a fallen flying beast with two wings followed closely.
……
Kingdom of Gondor.
A city made entirely of white boulders leans against a tall mountain wall, layer by layer like a birthday cake, up to the white palace on the seventh floor at the top.
This is the current capital of Gondor, Minas Tirith.
But it has a simpler and clearer name: Baicheng.
The pure white city is backed by numerous mountains and faces the plains and rivers. It shines brightly under the touch of the sun, just like the holy residence of angels.
Although Gondor has declined and is in a precarious precipice, and many territories have been ravaged and captured by Mordor's army, the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and Gondor is still the most powerful country of mankind. Valley State can be compared.
But it also directly shows that after Sauron's return, the situation in Middle-earth is precarious, and human beings are at a time of life and death.
"Whoo~"
At this moment, in the National Library, Gandalf was holding a pipe in one hand and flipping through the dense volumes in the other. He was so busy that he didn't take a puff for several minutes.
After saying goodbye to Frodo, he rushed here non-stop to check all the information about the Lord of the Rings, including the whereabouts of the Lord of the Rings that he was most concerned about. From all the clues, he can roughly judge whether Bilbo left behind Not genuine.
"Ah~"
Gandalf looked up at the bookcase on the wall that towered more than 20 meters, and couldn't help but feel annoyed.
With so many dossiers and ancient books, what year and month have to be checked.
In the movie, it took him 17 years to return from Shire, and he did two things during this period: he made sure that Frodo was holding the Lord of the Rings, informed Aragorn of the seriousness of the matter and asked him to give it to him. help.
At present, Gandalf had just arrived in the library, and the long reading had just begun.
However, just after he took a deep puff of tobacco, a figure hurriedly appeared behind the white smoke ring.
The visitor was a handsome young man in his twenties, with slightly curly blond hair hanging over his shoulders. Compared with his resolute eyes, his facial features were softer, like a melancholy young poet, and like a benevolent king, but The sword around his waist and the light armor on his legs and feet show that he is also a warrior.
"Faramir, what makes you so anxious?" asked Gandalf.
The young man is the second son of the current Prime Minister Denethor, and he and his elder brother Boromir are both well-known military officers in Gondor.
At the same time, Faramir is also a student of Gandalf. He is not only good at combat, but also has extremely high talents and attainments in art and music.
"Master, Rohan found the whereabouts of the skeletal dragon, and it went west." Faramir replied.
"Huh? Cough cough cough!"
No matter how to use a single sentence to make the gray robe wizard Gandalf choke his nose out of tobacco.
"Tell me in detail!"
"Just now, Rohan sent a messenger to deliver the news. A few days ago, Smaug passed over the northern border of Rohan, and was witnessed by a group of herdsmen entering the edge of Fangorn Forest. As for whether he crossed the Misty Mountains and entered the Arno Plain, it is temporarily unknown. Got it," Faramir said.
Gandalf fell silent for a moment. He stared solemnly at the various historical documents on the table, and a question could not help but arise in his mind.
What was Smaug going to the west for?
You must know that apart from the vast wilderness and ruins left by the Kingdom of Arno, there seems to be nothing that attracts dragons.
except it~
"The Black Barbarian Land, Lindon, the land of the elves, or the blue mountains abandoned by the dwarves," Gandalf murmured secretly, "and Shire, if Smaug was ordered to take the One Ring, then it would make sense, but according to the There are rumors that Smaug is killing people in Loen, and he seems to have broken with Sauron...or maybe Smaug also has greed for the One Ring, and wants to use this to threaten Sauron?"
No matter what kind of guess it was, Gandalf felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He didn't care about the information, so he put the pipe in his pocket and got up.
"Teacher, I'll go with you!" Faramir volunteered.
"If you really want to come, I won't stop it, but will Denethor agree? He doesn't like me very much." Gandalf quickly climbed the spiral stairs and said without breathing.
Hearing about his father, Faramir could not help lowering his eyes.
Denethor was unfair to the two sons. He preferred the eldest son, Boromir, and was very harsh on Faramir. The reasons for this were extremely complicated. Anyway, the younger son was just like a trash can.
Fortunately, the two brothers did not turn against each other because of their father's eccentricity. Instead, they were very harmonious and helped each other, and the elder brother often said good things for the younger brother.
"The fighting has been relatively calm recently, and with Boromir guarding the White City, I decided to go with you." Faramir said after some consideration.
Gandalf pondered for a moment, "Okay, if something really happens, there will be a messenger to report back."
Faramir smiled immediately. Being able to travel with his respected teacher and being related to the legendary dragon Smaug, he was excited after all as a young man.
As soon as the two walked out of the basement of the library, they saw Boromir standing guard at the door.
The elder brother's appearance is more resolute, and his figure is also stronger. He is an iron-blooded general with a proper temperament in his gestures.
He first bowed slightly to Gandalf, then looked at Faramir, and said with a smile, "Let me guess, you also want to find Smaug?"
Faramir was stunned, "How do you know?"
Boromir patted him on the shoulder and said honestly, "Because I heard your conversation just now."
He didn't wait for his younger brother to speak, and gave him a quick hug, "Listen, I have no right to interfere with what you want to do, but remember one thing, you must come back to me with healthy limbs."
Faramir nodded, "The change of the skeletal dragon is an ominous sign, perhaps related to the safety of Middle-earth, I must do something, at least know some unknown things in advance, so as to better protect Gondor and save the people In deep water."
"I believe you, you have your own ideas since childhood, I think father will understand." Boromir waved back.
I saw two soldiers coming leading two tall horses from Rohan, with food, water, bows, crossbows, feathers and arrows hanging on both sides.
"It seems that you are ready for us, how sweet." Gandalf rode one of them rudely.
Farewell to his brother, Faramir and Gandalf left the White City together.
"Humph~~"
On the edge of the palace square, Denethor, the prime minister of the ruler of Gondor, was overlooking the two figures fading away, his frowning brows showing full displeasure.
He doesn't like Gandalf, but respects the white robe wizard Saruman.
Seeing his son mixing with people he hates, he naturally didn't look good on his son.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons why Denethor dislikes Faramir.
"I hope you can really gain and contribute a lot, and don't make yourself look like a waste." Denetzer said silently.
This prime minister is not mediocre either. He has stabilized the dying Gondor for so many years by himself, and his iron-blooded and decisive style is admirable.
And Boromir is very similar to him when he was young, both are brave, aggressive and fearless, which is one of the reasons why Denethor prefers the eldest son.
……
The ruins of Arno's capital, Annuminas.
Chu Xin wore the Supreme Lord of the Rings for a full 10 minutes before taking it off, which was probably enough for the ring spirits to determine the exact location.
In these 10 minutes, the Supreme Ring can be described as mixed feelings.
Although it doesn't understand why Chu Xin disclosed his coordinates, it is undoubtedly a good thing.
What's uncomfortable is that during these 10 minutes, the Supreme Ring attacked Chu Xin again and again, but all of them ended in failure. The opponent seemed to strengthen his mind with a copper wall and an iron wall.
Therefore, the Supreme Ring was hit extremely hard, and at the same time subconsciously gave birth to a little resistance. For some reason, he was not willing to let Chu Xin wear it.
Because no matter how you look at it, it seems that you have set a trap on your own initiative, and then invite you to enter the urn and wait for the rabbit.
But the Supreme Lord of the Rings is just a ring, and it will not think as deeply as intelligent creatures, especially when it is disconnected from Sauron.
However, it has great confidence and trust in Sauron, and is sure that even if it is Chu Xin's trap, he will be trapped in his own cocoon and ask for trouble.
"Huh? Why do you feel the coldness?"
Chu Xin raised his head and looked around suspiciously.
It is not the temperature change on the body, but the senses on the soul level.
"This aura doesn't emanate from a certain place, but spreads in all directions," Chu Xin stared at Mu Anhu not far away, "The source seems to be underground." (End of this chapter)
