legend begins with lord of the rings

After Thorin finished explaining the matters in the main hall, he left Fili alone.

"What's wrong with you today, Fili? Are you always absent-minded?" Thorin stared at Fili below with his deep eyes.

"I don't know what's wrong with me..." Fili glanced at the majestic Thorin above, his eyes evasive.

"Is it because of Kili's matter..." Thorin's voice softened, and there was a trace of sadness on his face.

"I don't know..." Fili heard his brother's name coming from Thorin's mouth. He nodded first, and then shook his head, looking very confused.

Before, Fili only wanted to help the dwarves recapture the Lonely Mountain. But now that the Lonely Mountain has been recaptured, the price is that he has lost Kili forever, which makes him full of confusion. He can't even help but think,

Is this expedition worth it?

"I'm sorry for Kili's death. I failed to take good care of him..." Thorin said as he walked down from the throne, came to Fili and patted him on the shoulder, and then continued: "I know you are sad.

, but we can’t live in self-blame all the time, the dwarves still need us.

Look up and take a look at this hall. This represents the wisdom and inheritance of generations of dwarves. I will hand it over to you soon.

From now on, I want you to try to learn how to be a good king. Your burden will be heavy next, so don’t wallow in sorrow."

Thorin is deliberately cultivating Fili and is ready to pass the throne to him.

"Why are you telling me this?" Fili asked worriedly when he saw Thorin looking like he was explaining his affairs.

"I can feel that my time is running out. When I die, you will be the next king of the dwarves. For the future of the dwarves, you must be mentally prepared as soon as possible." Thorin warned Fili.

"How could this be? Gandalf said you'll be fine after you rest for a while." Fili felt complicated after hearing Thorin's words. He stood up and walked out: "I'll go get Gandalf back and let him look at you again."

.”

"Stop!" Thorin stopped the other party and shouted loudly: "As a future king, you must first learn to be steady. You can't go anywhere recently, so just study with me..."

…

Time flew by and several days passed.

After the dwarves discussed the details of retaking Moria, they sent Balin to the Adventurer's House to seek cooperation from Abel.

At this time, on the plain to the east of the Greenland Forest, wooden houses were rising from the ground. This was the new base of the Adventurer's Home.

According to Abel's design, it is also subdivided into several areas such as rest area, entertainment area, martial arts arena and mission hall.

During this period, Abel was not idle either. After he compiled the information on all the adventurers, he had already paid the commissions to the living adventurers.

Then, Abel also sent some people to distribute commissions from dead adventurers everywhere.

In the past few days, Abel also personally promoted a group of third-level adventurers. They were all fierce men who had killed at least ten orcs in the Battle of Gushan.

For this group of fierce men, Abel divided them into three teams and sent them to Rohan, Gondor and Lothlórien respectively to establish the Adventurer's Home branch.

Abel had already had a premonition that the tens of thousands of orcs who fled on the Gushan battlefield would definitely be active in the eastern part of Middle-earth in the near future.

This period of time is also the best time for the development of the adventurer team.

In order to help the adventurer team reduce unreasonable casualties, Abel also selected some injured veteran adventurers to teach first-level adventurers combat experience on the martial arts field.

When Bahrain arrived, he happened to see the group of adventurers who were constantly training themselves on the martial arts field.

After Abel learned of Bahrain's intention, he met him in the mission hall.

"It's really amazing!" Bahrain couldn't help but sigh when he was brought into the mission hall.

You must know that when he first met Abel, he was just a lone ranger, and his reputation as an adventurer was not well-known.

Nowadays, Abel not only has his own powerful team, but his identity as a dragon slayer and adventurer has also spread throughout Middle-earth.

"Thank you. What mission will the dwarf issue this time?" Abel smiled and looked at the dwarf in front of him.

"The Lonely Mountain is no longer suitable for dwarves to live in. After discussion, Thorin decided to transfer the dwarves to Moria. Before that, adventurers need to accompany the dwarf vanguard to explore the way to Moria." Balin conveyed Thorin's message.

mean.

"Oh, do you have any way to deal with the Balrog deep in the mines of Moria?" Abel expressed his doubts.

"This... the Balrog has not appeared for a long time. It must have left Moria." Balin felt a trace of luck in his heart.

Hearing Balin's uncertain tone, Abel knew that the dwarves might not have considered the existence of the Balrog in Moria.

"How many people can the dwarves send out this time, and who will take the lead?" Abel ignored the Balrog thing and continued to ask. In fact, he was already not very optimistic about the dwarves' trip to Moria.

"We can dispatch three hundred dwarf warriors, led by Dann, the leader of the Iron Hills." Balin answered truthfully.

Now, there are only about a thousand dwarves left on Gushan. Some of them have to be sent to summon the other five tribes of dwarves. There are also some dwarves left on Gushan to guard the treasure.

From this point of view, being able to gather 300 dwarf warriors to go to Moria is already the limit of the Lonely Mountain dwarves today.

"That's it..." Abel thought for a while and then said: "If the price is right, I can accompany you to Moria. But the ugly words are ahead. If there are force majeure factors, I can't guarantee that I can help you win.

Moria."

Abel knew for sure that the Balrog was deep in the mines of Moria. And the opponent's combat power was definitely no less than that of the gray robe wizard Gandalf.

For Abel now, the Balrog is no less than a big boss. It is worth a visit for Abel to see in person.

"As long as you agree, the commission will definitely satisfy you. If we encounter the special situation you mentioned in Moria, we won't force it..." Bahrain's posture was very low, and he had a blind trust in Abel.

feel.

"Okay, as you wish, the adventurer has accepted this mission. We will meet here the day after tomorrow morning, and I will lead three hundred adventurers to go to Moria with you." Abel agreed to this mission, mainly because

I want to see the legendary Balrog.

"Can you bring more people? The commission is negotiable." For the sake of safety, Bahrain wanted Abel to gather more combat power.

"Sorry, the adventurers here can only send out a maximum of three hundred people now." Abel simply rejected the Balinga people's request.

In fact, if Abel really wanted to gather the numbers, he could easily pull out a team of thousands of people.

However, this trip to Moria must be very dangerous, so Abel decided to take only second-level adventurers and above. If the first-level adventurers go, they can only be cannon fodder.

Bahrain didn't say any more and reached a consensus with Abel: to set off for Moria the day after tomorrow.
