The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

Chapter 881 Great Harvest

"That shouldn't be the case! How could they go back to the north if there is no unusual movement in the north?" Thorin shook his head and personally poured a glass of wine for the two.

"Stop talking nonsense. King Roland has been exploring the east for a long time! There are not many dragon knights here! Where did this group come from!" Thorin waved his hand. It was probably because these two silly kids mistook the flying birds in the sky for dragons!

"Really, Your Highness Thorin! I swear on my honor! You'd better go and see the border! The dragon knights of the Kingdom of Raglan really went north today!" Legolas said solemnly.

"..."Thorin was stunned. Seeing Legolas's solemn look, he couldn't refute it. After all, Legolas even brought up his reputation!

"Go check the merchants who came and went to Raglan City today! See if they have seen it!" Thorin couldn't ignore Legolas' words. Although he felt that the two men might be unconscious, Thorin decided to ask.

...

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

Two different soldiers ran in, which made Thorin's eyelids raise. He couldn't help but look back at Legolas, thinking that this guy wouldn't be so bad-mouthed, right? If he said the North, there would be problems in the North! After all, Thorin could still distinguish the soldiers' affiliations. The soldier behind was obviously a guard from the northern border!

"What happened in the North?" Thorin asked.

"Your Highness, General Dwalin asked me to report to you that King Roland personally arrived in the North with eight dragons! He went to the Gray Mountains!" The soldier from the northern outpost took a breath and said that he rode the argali all the way without stopping, and rode the argali back at full speed.

"Well... Congratulations, Prince Legolas, your information is true!" Thorin looked back at Legolas and waved his hand to signal that his guards could go down. The guards in the north were all back, so there was no need to ask about the news just inquired.

What a smart person Thorin is! After learning that Roland personally led the team to the Gray Mountains, he understood what was going on! There is no other possibility except the group of griffins that countless people are thinking about. However, Thorin is not jealous because he knows his own weight. According to the idea that if I get it, I am lucky and if I lose it, I will die. Although Thorin has some ideas about these griffins, it is obviously not something he can eat!

Of course, Thorin should thank himself for his caution and cognition. If he really chose to capture those griffins greedily, he would probably soon face the tragic situation of his air knights being annihilated. Although the dragon eagle is a powerful Asian dragon, it is obviously not the opponent of hundreds of griffins!

"Is there any change in the north?" Legolas asked.

"No! King Roland is just busy with his own things!" Thorin waved his hand and did not elaborate with Legolas. After all, those griffins have nothing to do with the woodland elves. The only ones who really know about this group of griffins are the dwarves and the Kingdom of Raglan! Of course, what he didn't know was that everyone knew more or less about the Grey Mountain Griffins. Based on the principle of less trouble is worse than more trouble, Thorin laughed and passed it.

However, everyone is a thousand-year-old fox. Although Aragorn and Legolas guessed that Roland might attack those griffins, the two who had the same idea as Thorin also pretended to be stupid for a while. Everyone tacitly did not mention this open secret, thinking about whether they would have a chance to pick up some soup in the future. After all, no matter how hard Thorin and Legolas thought, they would never think that the great King Roland would take away the soup and water!

…

"Huh! It's great to be back!" Roland smiled at the familiar castle.

"Let's go! I'll cook for you!" Nyx affectionately took Roland's arm.

"Don't leave today, okay?" Nyx looked at Roland affectionately, her eyes full of tenderness and reluctance. Facing Nyx's eyes that would move even a lion, Roland naturally couldn't resist. Thinking that Fenglin Youlan and Adolf Heinrich were supporting the city of Lagrande, it wouldn't be a big deal if he was a day late, so Roland stayed.

…

"Is everything going well, Your Majesty?" Although Yun Feng couldn't stand Roland treating him like a slave, he was still very dedicated to his work. He and Duke Joltea went to Roland together.

"Not bad! A lot of harvest! You have to set up a magic circle to ban air and magic here! Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to release them!" Roland pointed to the yard behind him. This empty yard was where he imprisoned these griffins.

"Okay! Later!" Yun Feng nodded, and then began to arrange it. Because he was the only one tinkering, Roland watched Yun Feng, who was pursuing efficiency, directly took out a handful of magic crystals and began to draw magic circles. As the magic crystals disappeared into the void, the whole space began to resonate with a strange wave!

"Okay, Your Majesty!" After a long time, Yun Feng finally looked up and nodded to Roland.

"Okay!" Roland touched his right wrist with his left hand and pretended to use the space equipment to release the griffins that he had stored in the system space.

"One!"

"Two!"

Roland counted silently. He didn't count the number of griffins when he collected them, but he could still feel that there were about a hundred of them!

"Hiss! So many? Can you stop them?"

When he started to look, Yun Feng's face was still calm. After a while, as Roland took out more and more, he took out the tied, paralyzed or dizzy griffins one by one (time stopped in the system space, they still retained the state they had just been collected). Many griffins took a while to break free from the vines on their bodies. After all, the vines that would absorb magic power in the forbidden magic circle also disappeared into light spots and fragments in the air. However, under the suppression of the forbidden magic and forbidden air magic circle, these griffins could only stagger a few steps! In the end, Yun Feng couldn't help but shout out!

"Well, the luck is still good! They almost ran away!" Roland knocked on the head of the dizzy griffin on the ground.

"...You want to stop these griffins with your life? One hundred and thirteen griffins...even pigs will take a long time to catch them, right? These things can fly! Can you stop them?" Yun Feng and Joelstya looked at each other.

After all, it is understandable for a dragon to fight a dozen griffins, but it is too much to let a dragon catch a dozen griffins, right? Could it be that Roland sold the ditch to the griffin leader? Yun Feng thought sinisterly.

"No way! It took several big forbidden spells and a group of forbidden spells to circle them. If it weren't for the time and space forbidden spell of chasing light, it would be good to keep half of them!" Roland was in a good mood. 113 griffins! There were 31 adults in total! 65 youngsters, and at least 17 youngsters! Adding the original 5 griffins in the kingdom, there are now a total of 118 griffins in the kingdom!

"Big profit!" Roland laughed, his eyes turned into the shape of money! You know, these griffins belong to the royal family! At most, the dragon rider families can share some of the profits! Unlike the griffin group of the Lagran Empire, which belongs to the noble parliament, the emperor needs the permission of the parliament to form a griffin team!

"I suggest you slow down the formation of the Griffin Knights!" Joelstya looked at Roland and said calmly.

"Huh?" Roland was stunned and didn't react.

"Although Knight Commander Nogai is the instructor knight of the Dragon Knights, there are only two types of Sky Knights: Dragon Knights and Sky Knights. Most of the other Sky Knights are interchangeable. Although Sir Nogai can train a group of apprentice Sky Knights, I think you should find a way to expand the Sky Knights' mounts first!" Joltea suggested.

"Of course! I won't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs! Both the Dragon and Griffin tribes need time to reproduce. We don't lack Sky Knights now, but we can let Nogai train a group of reserve Sky Knights first. Now they can use war horses to make do, and they can become real Sky Knights at any time in the future!" Roland proposed a talent reserve plan. After all, the Knight profession is essentially interchangeable. If a Dragon Knight rides a horse without a dragon, is he not a Knight?
