legend begins with lord of the rings

Everyone returned to the tent, and after Thranduil's instructions, a wood elf came forward to check the wizard's illness.

After a long time, the wood elf came out of the tent and went to prepare medicine for the wizard.

"What happened here? Aren't you supposed to stay on the Lonely Mountain with the dwarves?" After the pharmacist left, Gandalf looked at Abel with questioning eyes.

The wizard still remembered that he handed over the expedition team to Abel before he left. Now it seems that the situation within the expedition team is not good.

"Ever since Thorin retaken the Lonely Mountain, he has no room for anything else except gold coins.

He violated the contract he made before, and Bilbo and the residents of Lake Town deserved a share of the reward, and now he is still staying on the Lonely Mountain." There was disdain in Abel's tone, and it was not difficult for everyone to hear his disdain for Thorin.

despise.

"Yes, we helped Thorin find the Arkenstone, but he turned his back on us..." Bilbo also agreed.

Although Bilbo didn't care much about gold coins and wealth, as the person who personally retrieved the gems from Smaug, Bilbo felt that he did not get the respect Thorin deserved.

On the contrary, Thorin offended the hobbits again and again, and even forced Bilbo to face the evil Smaug again outside the vault door of the Lonely Mountain.

Originally, when the hobbit left the Shire, he still had great sympathy for the dwarves. Now, he has changed his view of the dwarves.

Bud stood on the side with a dark face and chose to remain silent.

Abel took this opportunity to tell the wizard about everything the dwarves did after arriving in Long Lake Town.

"How could this happen?" Gandalf frowned when he heard Thorin's changes before and after he entered the Lonely Mountain.

"Maybe there is a possibility that can explain Thorin's changes before and after." Abel said mysteriously: "Thorin is sick. Like his grandfather, he has dragon disease."

"Indeed, Thor was like that back then. The greed of the dwarves made them lose themselves." Thranduil, who was listening to the story when Abel mentioned dragon disease, couldn't help but speak.

The Elf King has gotten back his own white gemstone necklace, and now he is very relaxed. When it comes to the dwarves' style, he has become more rational.

"In this case, the situation is not good. The orcs in Dol Gudu are rushing to the Lonely Mountain. We must convince Thorin..." Gandalf's frown deepened.

"My people found traces of Azog by the rushing river yesterday. He led about 50,000 orcs. They should have come from Dol Gudu..." Thranduil said what he had collected.

information.

Hearing that there were 50,000 enemies, Bard gave up his determination to spend a long time in Lonely Mountain. If it weren't for the residents of Long Lake behind him, waiting to rebuild their homes, Bard would have left long ago.

"I plan to go to the Lonely Mountain again at noon. If I still can't get paid, I will leave here. I will not interfere with the dwarves' affairs." Bard made a decision.

"That's not necessary, you can still observe." Abel said to Bud.

Abel's idea was very simple. Since Thorin was unwilling to pay, he could just watch the dwarves fighting the orcs from the sidelines. After the dwarves were defeated, he and his group could take over again.

Although this may seem a bit cold-blooded, the dwarves are asking for it.

And once it succeeds, not only will Gushan be able to defend it, but everyone will also be able to share more wealth.

Everyone is happy except the dwarf who suffers a little loss.

Gandalf looked at Abel with flashing eyes, and those blue eyes seemed to see through Abel's little thoughts.

The wizard's expression changed several times, and his mouth opened again and again, but in the end he made no sound and could only let out a long sigh.

The development of things seems to be completely different from what the wizard imagined.

"By the way, Gandalf, you are in for a treat today. I brought back some dragon meat, you can try it." Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Abel directly changed the topic.

"Yes Gandalf, I'm going to make some dragon meat porridge to replenish your health." Bilbo shouted and rushed out of the tent.

Next, the wizard did not persuade everyone to form an alliance with the dwarves, but asked about the details of Abel's dragon slaying.

When everyone had finished chatting, Bilbo, Heili and Bain began to bring fragrant dishes into the tent.

It's actually past breakfast time now, so this meal can be considered lunch.

The dining table in the tent was quickly filled, and the dishes were very rich.

Finally, Bilbo came in with a large basin of dragon meat porridge and placed it in the middle of the dining table.

"Gandalf, have a try..." Bilbo filled a bowl of porridge and handed it to the wizard eagerly.

The wizard picked up the bright red rice porridge and took a curious sip. Then, a ball of hot air came out from both sides of his ears. The wizard squinted his eyes, as if he was enjoying it very much.

"How is it?" Bilbo asked anxiously after seeing the wizard's expression. He looked happier than eating honey himself.

"It's delicious. It's the best porridge I've ever tasted. And, Bilbo, I have to say, your cooking is getting better and better."

Of course, I would also like to thank our dragon-slaying warriors for providing me with such good ingredients." Gandalf said with a smile.

"You are trying this roasted dragon meat. It tastes very good..." Bilbo happily recommended the dishes to the wizard.

In Middle-earth, it is generally not easy to eat dragon meat. Even Thranduil tentatively tried some dragon meat porridge and grilled dragon steak.

In order to cater to the taste of the elf king, there are many out-of-season vegetables on the table, which Abel newly redeemed from the system.

After everyone had had enough wine and food, the pharmacist from before brought a bowl of bubbling green potion to the wizard.

This potion gave Abel the feeling of a witch brewing potion.

"I feel much better. Thank you for the medicine." Gandalf finished the medicine with a grimace and handed the empty bowl back to the wood elf.

Judging from the effect, the wizard's face is indeed much rosier.

…

"Gandalf, we have decided to visit the Lonely Mountain again. Do you want to go with us?" At noon, the troops heading to the Lonely Mountain had already assembled outside the tent. Abel asked the wizard for his opinion.

"I need to rest for a while. I will appear when you need me..." Gandalf looked at Abel and said meaningfully.

The wizard really doesn't want to see Thorin now. One reason is that he has been traveling day and night recently, and his body is really struggling. The other reason is that he doesn't want to see everyone fall out with Thorin.

The wizard knows the situation of dragon disease better than anyone else. The original dwarf king Thor was also one of the wizard's old friends.

He had already predicted that everyone's goal of going to Gushan this time would not be achieved.

After bidding farewell to the wizard, everyone set off for Lonely Mountain.

More than one kilometer away from the lonely mountain, Abel stopped the team and ordered the adventurers and elf warriors to hide on the spot.

Abel knew in his heart that his enemy was not the dwarves. And he had no intention of fighting with the dwarves.

The hidden team is also to deal with possible orcs.

After the team's concealment was completed, Abel and Bard each rode a black horse and walked towards the gate of Lonely Mountain accompanied by the Elf King.

On top of the tall solitary mountain city wall.

Dwalin, who was taking a nap against the city wall, suddenly opened his sleepy eyes. He saw the densely packed team not far away, and also saw them hiding.

Dwalin shook his head vigorously and muttered: "Am I not awake yet?"

"I must be dazzled..."

He rubbed his eyes and looked again. Beside Abel, the figure of the Elf King became increasingly clear in his sight.

Dvalin's eyes widened for a moment, and he finally reacted, turning around and shouting at the dwarf Orli in the corner behind him: "Damn~

Ori, quickly...go and call Thorin!"
