At this moment, Denise seemed to realize that besides the wizard, there were three unknown people in the hall.

"Who are you? Who let you in without my order?" Denise squinted her eyes and scanned the three of them one by one.

Pi Ping was forced by the regent's momentum, and his expression was still so reserved. He leaned closer to the wizard and did not answer Denise's question.

As for Alta, who had been following Abel, she was more like Abel's guard and had no intention of speaking.

"I am the adventurer Abel, and these two are my friends." Abel smiled and revealed his identity.

"Adventurer...Abel..." Denise leaned back on the chair and quilt and murmured to herself: "I seem to have heard of this name..."

Suddenly, a light flashed in his eyes, and he asked in surprise: "Are you Dragon Slayer Abel?"

"That's right." Abel still maintained a polite smile on his face and nodded.

After confirming Abel's identity, Denise's mind quickly turned to the left, and the expression on his face became very rich.

However, not long after, Denese returned to his previous lazy appearance and said in a hoarse voice: "You were the cause of the commotion outside the city."

"Your Excellency, it is obvious that I just took back the fortress that belongs to me." Abel's voice did not show any fluctuation, and his eyes looked directly at the regent who looked like a "sick cat" on the seat.

"Your fortress?" A trace of anger appeared on Denese's face, but it was quickly hidden: "That's all, as long as you adventurers don't cause trouble in Gondor, let you go."

"My lord is wise~" Abel cupped his hands casually, and the polite smile on his face disappeared.

"Well..." Denese didn't seem to care about Abel's rude performance. He slumped on the chair and said: "Tell me, what's the matter with you following Gandalf to see me this time?"

"I do have something important to discuss here this time, but before that, I brought you some bad news." Abel replied.

"Huh?" Denise propped up his face and pulled out a long face with a serious expression.

"As far as I know, the orc army of Mordor is preparing to attack Gondor. Gandalf can vouch for this." Abel continued: "And the purpose of my coming here is to discuss cooperation with you. As long as you

If you pay enough commission, the adventurer can help you resist Sauron's orc army."

"That's nonsense~" Denese suddenly started to act, slapped the chair, and said angrily: "The orcs of Mordor and us in Gondor have always been on the same page. What are you trying to do by being alarmist here!"

Seeing that the other party was just lustful, Abel couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Seeing the atmosphere in the hall gradually becoming solemn, Gandalf stood up and said: "Please listen to me, Lord Regent.

What Abel said was not false. Mordor's army was indeed gathering, and they had evil intentions.

On the way back to Gondor last night, we saw the orcs attacking Osgiliath."

Hearing the wizard's testimony to Abel, there was a hint of panic in Denese's eyes.

After a long time, he said feebly: "I remember I sent Faramir to Osgiliath before...

The orcs attacked there, probably because Faramir angered the orcs.

You know, my second son is a guy who succeeds only when he fails. His personal behavior has nothing to do with us in Gondor..."

Abel finally understood. Denethor didn't know that the orcs were going to attack Gondor. He just didn't have the courage to face the orcs of Mordor.

Now Denise is like a person pretending to be asleep, trying to cover up troubles with an evasive mentality.

It is also like an ostrich with its head stuck in the sand. It seems to be avoiding disaster, but the knife that is coming will still fall on it sooner or later.

"Don't forget, your eldest son also went to Osgiliath." Abel reminded: "Your two sons are fighting against the orc army of Mordor. As a father, what is your choice?

?”

"I..." Denese was speechless for a moment. After he organized what he needed, he continued: "If Boromir, like his brother, offends the orcs of Mordor, then for the sake of peace in Gondor, I can only let them

Go make amends with the orcs.

Even if the orcs take their lives, they deserve it..."

"What a righteous act of annihilation~" Abel gave a thumbs up and said mockingly: "You are noble and awesome. But have you ever thought about it. After the orcs occupy Osgiliath, your people in Gondor will be in the same position as the orcs."

Under the butcher's knife of the army."

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible." Denethor seemed to be convincing himself: "Gondor and Mordor have always coexisted peacefully. As long as we don't make mistakes, the orcs of Mordor will not harm my people."

"Hehehehe..." Abel laughed directly: "It is really a tragedy for Gondor to have a regent like you~"

"Presumptuous~ Are you questioning me?" Denese stared straight at Abel with cold eyes.

"You are so smart, I was discovered by you." Abel looked scared.

"If it is true as you said, the orcs are about to attack Gondor in a big way. What can I do with Gondor's strength?" Denese stood up excitedly and shouted: "You tell me, what can I do? Tell me

~"

The Regent of Gondor seems to have been depressed for a long time. His helplessness can be heard in his roar.

Although Gondor is the largest alliance in Middle-earth, its geographical location bordering Mordor determines that it has to bear more pressure from the orcs.

In addition, Gondor has not had King Kai in charge for hundreds of years, and the regent family, whose name is not justified, is also unable to support itself.

Even though the regent seems to have only one hand covering the sky in Gondor, there are even more people saying bad things about him behind his back.

"The problem of the orcs in Mordor is not unsolvable..." Abel stretched out his finger and said: "First, light the beacon and summon the allies of Gondor to jointly resist the orcs. Secondly, pay me enough commission, and the adventurer can help you protect

Gondor."

"Hahaha... You are worthy of being the leader of adventurers. Don't think that I don't know your thoughts." Denese walked towards the throne in the center of the hall step by step as if he was crazy: "You want me to welcome Aragorn back?"

, I want Aragorn to sit on the throne of Gondor. Then you adventurers will work with Aragorn to exclude me..."

Denethor knew about Aragorn's existence from Boromir a long time ago.

Denethor, who has controlled Gondor all his life, certainly does not want to see Aragorn return.

He gently stroked the back of the throne and said: "Why should the country I have worked so hard to govern be handed over to an outsider? Just because he has royal blood! Just because he was born noble?"

Denethor's mind has been corrupted by power, and he would rather perish with his country than give up Gondor to others.

"Maybe you are right. Aragorn's family feels sorry for Gondor. But if you don't want to see Gondor destroyed, welcoming Aragorn back now is your best choice."

Abel continued: "With the identity of the royal family of Gondor, Aragorn can integrate all the forces of Gondor. With the help of adventurers, Gondor can drive the orcs back to Mordor."

"I don't want to hear that name. Get out of here and leave my hall~" Denese shouted at the door: "Come here, drive them out! I don't want to see them again~"

"You will regret it..." Abel glanced at Denise, turned around and walked out the door.

Alta followed closely behind him.

The wizard looked at the furious Denese and sighed, taking Pi Ping with him and walking out the door.

Denethor leaned against the throne and shouted at Abel's disappearing back: "I am the regent of Gondor~"
