Chapter 0271 Rivendell (1)

 Last night, after seeing a good show of Little Witches vs. Ring Spirit Black Knights, and learning that the enemy who was chasing them had temporarily declared the destruction of the group. Moreover, in the hotel opposite their own floor, there was a free super thug who had successfully attracted the enemy's hatred, Frodo and four other hobbits were able to sleep peacefully and securely!
So, in the early morning of the next day, Frodo, Sam, Piping, Meli, and the mysterious "God Walker" who had finished resting and had used a rich breakfast, took their respective salutes and led the ranger's white-brown brown horse out of the house they temporarily rented and hired at the Yuema Hotel, and began their journey again.
When they left the small courtyard of the house and walked onto the street, they happened to see the owner of the Yuema Hotel, a group of good townsmen and some soldiers talking loudly and passionately.
"You must not know, right? Let me tell you, last night, I witnessed it with my own eyes: four evil black knights rushed into our town of Bree and sneaked into my leap horse hotel, as if they were trying to catch someone or find something?"
"Next, they ungratefully provoked the noble little wizard who lived in my hotel, and then, you all look at it! They became like this: look at the corpses of those dark horses, and then look at the deformed armor after their death!"
After seeing more and more people surrounding him, the hotel owner blushed and pointed and gestured at the corpses of the horses in front of his hotel and the armor left by the evil knights after his death.
"You may not know that at that time, I saw that the opportunity was not good, so I hid directly behind the bar, and didn't even dare to breathe! At that time, I almost thought I was dead!"
"But never thought that when the four terrifying black knights went upstairs to toss and twitched the boxes and cabinets, they were chopping and chopping them up again. Then, not long after, one of them was knocked away from the window by the wizard and hitting outside? It was the window on the top floor. Do you see it?!"
"Next, when I plucked up my courage and peeked at the window by the door, I only saw: the powerful wizard lady, she just floated out of thin air, reached out and grabbed it, and a powerful black knight screamed and was caught by her in an iron ball?"
"And then, she waved her hand, and didn't know what magic trick she used, and instantly turned the iron ball into a giant axe warrior full of flames. In just a few moves, she killed all the remaining three black knights!"
"Did you see the giant axe that plowed the street out of a deep pit? And there, the one-armed empty shell armored man standing there alone! Last night, it was the warrior who was covered in flames in the heavy rain! However, when it wiped out the enemy, the flames on his body gradually faded and he no longer moved..."
On the muddy grass outside the Yuema Hotel, the hotel owner happily pointed to the evil military horses and the armor fragments after the evil spirits were killed, as well as the one-armed armor still standing further away.
Then, when he saw the ranger leading four hobbits by his place, he was stunned for a moment.
If he remembered correctly, it seemed that the four evil black knights went to the room they had originally booked to chop and flipped over? However, for some reason, these five people suddenly packed up their things and moved to a house across the street when he was about to close their business last night?
If they think about it this way, they must have known in advance that the Black Knights and those terrible evil creatures are looking for them, right? In this way, their hotel and the noble wizard are actually pushing the tank for them?
So, should he reach out to ask them for a little compensation?
"Huh~! Head! I've just gone to see it. The old Allen, who is guarding the gate of our Bree Town, was indeed trampled to death, and the gate of the town was also destroyed! Moreover, according to the horseshoe marks on the wooden door, it must have been done by these four black knights!"
At this time, when Frodo and the other five approached, they happened to see a militia running in a hurry and report to a man who was listening to the owner of the Yuema Inn to introduce the situation last night.
"Well...I've never seen a weapon of this style and pattern..."
After nodding, the big man in chain mail walked directly to a grassland, then squatted down, and looked at the black long sword on the ground that was dropped by the black knights.
This long sword should be an elite two-handed knight sword with a slightly longer handle, which is very suitable for holding hands and slashing with all your strength during land battles. Of course, during cavalry battles, you should also be able to directly act as a one-handed sword to call?
"Be careful... this is a magic cave sword... Believe me, if I were you, I wouldn't have touched its blade rashly!"
Aragon, who was leading four Hobbits by, saw that the militia captain of the Bree Town seemed to want to reach out to touch the black sword that fell on the grass, he kindly lowered his head and whispered a reminder.
"Demon, Demon's Cave Sword?!"
Hearing this, the mailed man was about to touch the sword blade and wanted to try the sharpness, so he immediately shrank back like lightning.
Then, when he turned to look at the man who had just passed by and kindly reminded him, he only saw the other party's hooded figure and the four short hobbits following behind him?
That person...is that ranger?!
After frowning and thinking for a while, the militia captain said that the ranger who walked over, the middle-aged man with strange whereabouts and extraordinary skills, had seen him many times in Bree Town, but there was no intersection between the two sides.
"Captain, what is the Demon Cave Sword?"
Seeing that his captain suddenly stopped when he was about to touch the sword body, and then looked at the weird man who spoke to remind his captain that he had gone further and further away, a Bule Town militia wearing an iron helmet, armor, and a wooden spear in his hand, came over and asked curiously.
"Devil's Cave Sword..."
"In rumors, it is an evil weapon from the Minas Cave! It is said that anyone who is injured or stabbed by a sword blade will gradually fall into permanent darkness if they are not effectively treated..."
"Then...it will become an existence that is neither alive nor dead..."
Looking at the black sword on the ground, the militia captain's face began to become a little solemn.
Then, he turned around and looked at the corpses around him who had been killed by the witch, but there were only three black knights with broken armor left. He seemed to believe the Ranger's words.
"Is there something so mysterious? It must be fake, right?"
"Head! Look, this thing looks very well-made, and only nobles can use it, right? I think it must be very valuable!"
"That's right! Captain, don't worry about what it is, let's just put it away and sell it for money?"
Compared to this great captain wearing a chain mail, the other militiamen carrying long spears did not have so many concerns.
The broken and collapsed and twisted knight armor around them has basically been scrapped, and it must be sold as scrap iron for a small amount of money. However, these three long swords that fell here are different. Looking at their exquisite workmanship, they will definitely be worth a lot of gold coins!
At that time, if we share one point together, we can definitely get over to their own hands, and those who can get the military salary of these people for several months. There is no reason to let go of such a fortune that has come from heaven!
"Hmph! We will know soon whether they are the swords of the Demon's Cave!"
After pondering for a while, the captain, who was a little confused about the rumors, did not continue to care about his subordinates' disturbances. So, when he stood up and looked up and saw a trace of morning sunlight shooting from above the eaves, he pushed away the two subordinates standing in front of him who blocked the sun.
"Okay, you guys get out of here!"
Then, something surprised everyone present: the sword body of the black long sword quickly collapsed and turned into a black mist and disappeared completely? In the blink of an eye, it only left a pretty gorgeous hilt of sword?
"Tsk! It's indeed the legendary magic cave sword! It's so troublesome now..."
When the militia captain possessed himself again and picked up the long sword of the demon cave with only the hilt left from the ground, and then looked at the "corpses" of the dead black knights around him, he knew that things seemed to have become a little trouble...
Four black knights from the Demon Cave died in their Bree Town. So, will they attract revenge from the other party?!
"Where is that noble wizard guest? Are you still in your hotel?"
After thinking about it, the militia captain walked to the owner of the Yuema Hotel and asked in a low voice.
"That...is sorry!"
"She bought a carriage early in the morning and left...it seemed to be heading east? As for whether to go to Amonsour or to Stad Town, I don't know much..."
The hotel owner thought about it seriously and could only shook his head at the militia captain with regret.
Earlier today, it was the light and comfortable carriage he bought for the little wizard at just dawn! However, the little wizard rejected the suggestion that he planned to hire a groom for her at that time. She just sat on the carriage without manipulating it, and let the old horse carry her carriage out of the town gate to the east.
———
"Hey! Where are you going to take us?"
After leaving the east gate of Bree Town, Piping and Meli were surprised to find that this strange "god traveler" did not take them along the main road, but instead went straight into the dense forest, intending to cross mountains and ridges and walk directly to the east?
"We have to cross the Bryant swamp, go to the wilderness, and then go directly to the post at the top of Fengyun Hills to see! There is one of the meeting points I agreed with Gandalf before!"
Aragon, who was walking in front of the road, ignored the opinions of the Hobbits behind him and specially selected some rugged and difficult dense forests and mountain streams to walk on.
"Then why don't we go on the main road? Instead, we have to go through this kind of dense forest? And you actually want to go through the Bryant swamp directly?!"
After hearing the "Shenxing Ke" tell the next route, Merley, who was following behind, complained loudly with dissatisfaction.
This is a swamp and wilderness. Just by listening, you know that it must be difficult to walk. Isn’t the road outside quite good? Why do you have to cross mountains and rivers?
"Very good, boy! If you think you can escape the pursuit of those sleepless black knights on the road, then you can go to the main road, and I will never stop you!"
After breathing, Aragorn grabbed a small branch and stabilized his body, he turned around and warned the little hobbit behind him in a bad tone that he had known to complain all day long.
"But, weren't all those black knights dead? Just last night, we all saw that little girl wizard, she had killed them all!"
"Yes! In this case, why don't we go on a more comfortable road?"
After Piping and Meli looked at each other, they seemed to have discovered something interesting, and they began to loudly refute the words of the "God Walker".
"If you really want to walk the road, go south, with the speed of your Hobbits, I believe that you can see the road in just two or three hours. If you really want that, then you can just go!"
"Also, don't blame me for not reminding you: there should be nine black knights like the Ring Spirits last night! And last night, that powerful witch, she just destroyed four of them!"
After accentuating the tone above the 'four', Aragon shook his head, not wanting to get involved in these messy things, and continued to turn around and bury his head in front of him with the road.
But in fact, he still didn't say anything, just because he was afraid that he would accidentally scare these timid Hobbits!
That's because: the ring spirits will not be killed easily! Even though the little girl seemed to have successfully eliminated four of them last night? However, Aragon believed that in the absence of long time, the four dead black knights would still be resurrected in the devil's cave of Minas!
He had no doubt about this!
Only certain special methods, or special weapons that can break the immortal curse of the Ring Spirit, can completely kill the opponent!
For example, their Western Dendan royal family has special powers, and is said to be the weapons that have been blessed by gods? Or, his Nasir Holy Sword?
It’s a pity that the holy sword he inherited had long been broken and broken...
"Okay, maybe you're right!"
"Well! Just pretend we haven't said anything!"
After Piping and Meli were stunned for a moment, they suddenly remembered: When they were hunted by the black knights of the Ring Spirit, they had encountered many terrifying black knights when they were sailing to get rid of the black knights in Bacoberli ferry in Shire. At that time, the number of the other party seemed to have far exceeded four?
"Frodo, how do you know that this 'goddess' is Gandalf's friend?"
Sam, who was following behind the other party's brown horse, approached Frodo and asked in a low voice. He was still a little suspicious of the tall human in front of him. He always felt that the other party didn't look like a good person?
"Sam, I think the appearance of our enemy's minions should not be like this. They... can make people feel an evil aura..."
Frodo remembered the aura emitted by the other party was very evil when the four of them avoided the Ring Spirit Black Knight under the root of the tree!
Even at that time, when the other party lay down to search for them, the breath made the small animals, spiders, centipedes and other insects unconsciously emerge from the cracks of the rocks or the soil and escape?
"I think he is evil enough now!"
Indeed, Sam also felt that the aura of the Ring Spirit Black Knights was quite evil! But, the "God Walker" in front of him seemed to be not much better, right?
"Sam, now we have no choice but to believe him!"
While Gandalf, whom he trusted, is still missing and he and others are still being hunted down by the Black Knight of the Ring Spirit, they do not have a good choice except for believing that this "God Walker" who helped them once last night.
Besides, since the other party can speak Gandalf's name in one word, he can always give him a little trust.
"Where is he going to take us? We are getting further and further away from Bray Town now."
In fact, what Sam wants to say more is: Now, they are getting further and further away from their hometown of Charles...
If he hadn't been worried that going back privately would lead the black knights to Habitun, which might bring misfortune to his relatives and friends, he really wanted to turn around and run back right now. Anyway, Gandalf is not here, and no one can punish him or turn him into a stone frog or something.
"Let's go to the guard post at Fengyunding first. If Gandalf is really not there, we will go east to Rivendale, the residence of the Elf King Ailon! Lord Zhanji, are you satisfied with this answer?"
Aragon, who could hear the muttering between Sam Wes Janje and Frodo clearly, replied loudly without any mind.
King Eron, also known as Elrond, is the great lord of the high elf in the Rivendallin Valley and the holder of Vilya, the wind ring of the three elves. In Aragon’s impression, King Eron is not only brave and good at fighting, has excellent medical skills, outstanding wisdom and predictability, but also raises him to be an adoptive father who grew up in Aragon, and is also one of his most respected high elfs!
In fact, he felt a little helpless about the disagreement of these hobbits.
If Gandalf hadn't entrusted him personally, would you think that Aragon would have worked hard to protect these people without getting any benefits, and would have only muttered behind him and questioned these hobbits who had never received any benefits?!
"Hey! Guys, did you hear it? He was talking about Rivendell? We were going to Rivendell to see the elves?"
After hearing what the "God Walker" who led the way said, Piping and Meliz, who had always been a little complaining, finally began to cheer excitedly.
The elves that are tall and only legendary races, they have long wanted to see them, but they have never had a chance! But this time, if they can really see the elves in Rivendell, then when they go back to Shire, they will definitely be able to brag about this for a long time, right?
“…”
Compared to the excitement of these two people, Sam and Frodo seemed much more calm.
Because, on the night before leaving from Charles, they were lucky enough to see a team of wood elves who moved westward. Frodo also heard the songs they sang along the way, saying that they were going to the port outside the White Tower? They seemed to be going to sea, and they were going to other places in the Middle Earth world?
"Gentlemen, hurry up and speed up! We must not stop until night falls!"
After walking for a while, after just crossing two peaks, Aragorn, who seemed to be wrong behind him, had to turn around and remind him, but he saw that the hobbits were actually planning to camp and eat?
This is really a hell!
This phenomenon almost made Aragon laugh!
Sure enough, it is not completely unreasonable for the human world to call the Hobbits a hobbit. These lazy short guys have just left less than an hour and are about to rest and eat here?
What a joke about this? They are now being hunted by a group of black knights of the Ring Spirit...
"So still go? What should we do with our breakfast?"
Sam, who was about to hand over a cookie to his companion, was puzzled.
Then, he looked up at the rising sun in the sky. The breakfast time had obviously arrived, so why should he go? Shouldn’t he take a break and have a good breakfast, and then walk forward a little to help digestion when the meal is almost done?
"You guys were just in Bray Town, haven't you eaten it?!"
When I was in that house, when I woke up in the morning, I had already had a breakfast. Aragorn was very sure about this, they had really eaten it!
"Just one meal? That's right! I've had it at that time, but what about the second breakfast?!"
Pi Ping, who was about to take the food next to him, immediately asked back, "The hobbits usually have to eat two breakfasts a day!"
“…”
He opened his mouth, and Aragon had a straight face. He said nothing, turned around and left.
Do these damn Hobbits really think they are on an outing? Do you really think that there is no other danger besides the black knights who are pursuing them?
The second breakfast is there? The second breakfast is the hell! Where is the second one? Don’t talk about any breakfast, there is no lunch! Before it gets dark, they can only eat while walking, stop and have a good rest, and eat while chatting, so they don’t even think about it anymore!
"People, I think, they humans probably don't have the concept of a second breakfast?"
Merry had just sighed when suddenly, he saw something flying from the sky.
When he hurriedly reached out to catch it, he realized that this was an apple that the "Shenxingke" walking in front had just picked and threw from a low wild apple tree in front?
"Okay...what before afternoon tea? Where is the luncheon? And afternoon tea...dinary...least supper? He should know this, don't he?"
Hearing that the treatment might become extremely bad in the following days, the Hobbit Piping was a little dissatisfied. In his opinion, he would go on a hurry, but this basic treatment could not be lowered casually...
"I can't tell you this!"
After handing the other party an apple, Meli shook his head and walked forward.
———
A few days later, in the direction of Bree Town, a small carriage pulled by a huge sheepish man was walking leisurely in the dense forest without roads.
Little Anne half lying in her carriage with a rain-covered roof, allowing the two-legged "horse" in front of her to pull her, and traveling through the jungle where there was no road, she took her to the east.
She just threw some snacks into her mouth while pillowing her bear Tibers and looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky. Beside her was her 20mm electromagnetic sniper rifle. You read that right, it was the one she would be equipped with when she was a ghost agent in the interstellar world!
During the days when Anne was traveling alone, she had encountered many messy things that wanted to come and make a mistake in her!
After all, this world of the Rings is not simple. It is a magical world of magic! Whether it is a risky mercenary, a traitor, a goblin, a half-orc, a sheepish man, or even a huge stone giant that is hundreds of meters tall!
So, along the way, she was disturbed by those blind people and was too lazy to use magic, usually just shot the other party and hit it into a pile of rotten meat. The easiest and most troublesome choice is the simplest and most troublesome choice.
As long as the monsters who dare to come out to block the road and want to eat her, she would just "bang" and then the whole world would be purged! As for whether the headless sheep or other corpses left on the road would scare the passing travelers or something, it wouldn't matter to her!
Now, she has walked several days and nights in a row. Even she doesn’t know how far she has walked! Anyway, the slow and stupid old horse who was originally pulling the cart has been let go by her, but now, the one who pulls the cart has been replaced by this new "horse" with two legs and strong strength!
Anyway, Anne only knew that since she left the town of Bray, she had been walking eastward. When she arrived here, there was almost no road left. She was considering whether to abandon this broken carriage that was about to fall apart, and then let go of this poor old "horse" and think about something else.
Bang!!
Annie waved her finger, and the whip formed by magic left a red mark on the back of the sheepwoman who was pulling her carriage, which made the sheepwoman shiver and had to speed up again.
"Don't be lazy! I've put you in a BUFF to resist the sun."
"If you dare to cheat, you have to think about how much your butt on the other side wants to be cooked! I know, you can understand what I say!"
As he spoke, little Annie began to chuckle softly.
Because, when this she-boy who was pulling her carriage, she wanted to cheat on her last time, the skin on one side of her butt was roasted red with flames! While the other party knew the pain, she would not hurt the other party and would affect her pulling the carriage as a coolie.
Although this shemale man is smelly and does not seem much like the original old horse? However, it still has some benefits! That is: since Anne changed this "horse", ordinary gadgets and beasts have never dared to come out and bother herself casually.
“Huh?!”
Someone rushed towards him at high speed? Listening to the sound, it seems that he was still riding a horse?
Just as Anne was a little worried because there was a small river blocking the road in front of her and the sheep can't continue to move forward, she heard the sound of rapid horse hooves behind her. Moreover, there were still several cavalry rushing towards her?
It seems to be a little familiar? They are here to make trouble for themselves, right?
“…”
Listening to the sound of horse hooves that were becoming more and more rapid from far away, Annie stopped the sheep who was stupid and planning to forcibly wade across the river. She planned to see the situation first.
"Run, Asifalus, run quickly, get faster!"
While tightening the Frodo in her arms, she urged her mount under her crotch. She didn't even care about the wound on her face being cut by a branch, but was urging her love horse to run faster.
Behind her, there were only a few positions, a total of five black armored and black robes and black knights holding long swords, chasing her.
During the pursuit period, there were several times when she was almost successfully surrounded by the other party! If the partner under her crotch hadn't been brave enough to break through the other party's encirclement with agility, now, maybe she and Frodo had already been captured by the ring spirits alive?
"That's...sheboy?!"
Arwen, who had just turned out of the woods, soon discovered that there was a cannibal who was almost two people tall on the beach. When did they dare to come out to move during the day? Moreover, the other party seemed to be pulling its trophy: a little girl?!
If it were normal, Arwen might have rescued the human girl from the evil she-cannibal. However, now she can only bite her teeth and let her love horse pass through the she-cannibal and the pony carriage, and resound through the river. She believes that as long as she reaches the other side of the river, she can use the power of nature to chant a spell to summon the Uomu flood to disperse the black knights of the ring spirit chasing her!
Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!
The dense sound of horse hooves sounded. When Arwen hugged Frodo, who was almost unconscious, and rushed into the river with the sheep and ran to the other side to pull the horse around, the five Ringling Knights barely arrived by the river.
Chapter completed!
