The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

Chapter 924 King Raglan!

"Nice to meet you, Thorongil! I heard that you are the ranger in the north called Strider?" Roland looked at the man in front of him who was called the savior with curiosity.

The description of Aragorn in the original book is described as follows: Aragorn was 87 years old when he first appeared in "The Lord of the Rings", but due to the longevity of the Dunedain, he had actually just completed one-third of his life journey. (Aragorn died at the age of 210. At that time, he had "a head of shaggy gray hair", was "thin" [7] but "pale and resolute" face, "a pair of sharp gray eyes" "sharp and spirited", and "a deep and rich voice". Years of travel have left "marks" on Aragorn's face. As a "wanderer", he is not "good-looking", but when he was young, he was "tall and handsome", like a "young monarch". Although Aragorn did not often wear gorgeous clothes during his travels, the majesty of his heir to Isildur always bursts out at the right time. He is "full of heroic spirit", "his figure seems to have suddenly risen", and he exudes "unparalleled power and kingly majesty". This kingly majesty can impress friends and scare away enemies...

But at this moment, Roland's attention was drawn to the still young Attracted by the young Aragorn! Aragorn was tall and handsome at that time! He was tall, with black hair like Roland, and a light of hope in his piercing eyes!

"Hello, A... Solongil!" Roland looked at Aragorn meaningfully and nodded at him.

"So, do you have any explanation for your behavior?" Roland raised his chin to indicate. Although he probably guessed Aragorn's intention, the pressure of the country did not allow him to downplay it.

"It's like this, Your Majesty Roland, we saw the bone dragon, so we wondered if we could help you..." Aragorn was not afraid, but raised his head and looked at Roland. Roland saw sincerity in Aragorn's eyes, and Aragorn felt a light called The pressure of the king! It was a different breath from Elrond, as if there was a humanoid dragon standing in front of him.

"Crack..." Aragorn's joints, kneeling on one knee, creaked slightly under Roland's pressure.

"Get up, I feel your sincerity! Ranger!" Roland retracted his gaze, and the mountain-like pressure suddenly loosened.

"Thank you for your trust!" Aragorn suddenly gasped. Under Roland's momentum, his breathing became disordered. What Aragorn didn't know was that he was really facing a dragon! Doss in Roland's arms enveloped Aragorn with his dragon power at that moment!

"Don't be so impulsive in the future. Without absolute strength, you will only add two names to the list of sacrifices!" Roland looked at the two rangers and said, In the past, Roland had always guessed that Aragorn was a warrior or a knight, but he never expected that he would find out that he was actually a ranger after meeting him!

Looking at the calm Roland, Aragorn felt as if there was a mountain in front of him! Aragorn, who originally wanted to talk, didn't know how to start for a while, and could only look at Roland awkwardly.

"What's wrong? Roland?" Nyx gently lifted the hem of her skirt and walked over. Aragorn was dazed by her mature and intellectual pretty face, but he soon woke up because Alwen's voice appeared in front of him. He turned his head and apologized to his lover secretly.

"It's okay, it's a misunderstanding! Two fledgling rangers were caught by our knights!" Roland said with a smile. He had thought of many kinds of meetings with Aragorn, but he never thought that this buddy would be tied up to see him.

"Well, when are we leaving?" Nyx glanced at Aragorn, and then stopped paying attention to this ranger who looked like a wild man.

"Don't worry, this place has just experienced war, let's comfort the people first!" Roland shook his head, a few traces of compassion flashed in his eyes. He didn't know what it meant to have more power and more responsibility. When he climbed from a small lord to the position of king, he suddenly looked back and felt the heavy weight and responsibility on his shoulders! The road in the Golden Palace is very slippery, you have to climb up by yourself if you fall!

Roland, a civilian for three generations, had no one to teach him the art of emperor except the experience of his ancestors! This position should have nothing to do with him. He grew up by groping like those young emperors in history. His only advantage was that he had absolute military power and the loyalty of his people! But this loyalty and trust is both a help and a shackle!

"Oh! Okay!" Nix nodded. Although she didn't think Roland should do this personally, she still chose to support him since Roland spoke up.

…

“…” Roland walked silently in the ruined city. A large number of houses were knocked down, and the embers in the ruins were still burning. From time to time, the rubble was emitting curling smoke. The professionals with water-based fighting spirit summoned the water elements in the air to condense water streams to run in the city to put out the fire. A large number of residents were homeless and huddled in tents, looking out at the fully armed team.

“Your Majesty…” Some citizens knelt down to Roland tremblingly. The clean linen robes had become gray and tattered, with strands of cloth hanging on their bodies, but they still couldn’t hide their respect for Roland.

“Get up… The kingdom will not let its people suffer! You will be properly resettled soon!” Roland’s chest was blocked, but he still suppressed his emotions and patted the civilians’ shoulders calmly without any fluctuations.

……

"Give all these to the people, remember! Distribute them door to door! I don't want anyone to get involved in this! Baron Lance, do you understand?" Roland took off the dragon-slaying sword from his waist and gently placed it in Lance's hand.

Lance's hand trembled, and his lips moved as he said, "Your Majesty, no one will do anything to enrich themselves!"

"Well, I believe you, maybe not now, but in the future? Keep a close eye on it, human nature..." Roland shook his head and said nothing more. Not betraying the king is their bottom line, but no one can guarantee their moral ceiling! Roland doesn't want to find a bunch of rats in his own home in the end! The lesson of the Gondor War of the Ring is deeply imprinted in Roland's mind! All those corrupt nobles are showing Roland the appearance of termites.

"I will, Your Majesty!" Lance hurried away and asked the soldiers to carry all kinds of supplies. It was obvious that the system space that Roland carried with him was the best transport team. The chopped linen and thick military tents were piled up into a small mountain, and there were also dry bread and dried meat that could be used as hammers!

...

"Slow down! Slow down! The people behind can't keep up!" The knights wandering outside rode their horses and galloped to the side of the knights who were clearing the way.

Grand Duke Okrian Yasuo frowned, because clearing the way was a dangerous job, so he brought the only organized Knights of the Wind. This square flag knights composed of third-level knights were much more advanced than Roland's Holy Knights. After all, the Holy Knights were still full of second-level knights. This iron fist composed of pure third-level knights was enough to smash the square formation of tens of thousands of people on the plain!

Three days of cleaning, I was almost exhausted...
