Chapter 66: Don't Enter!
"Arno Kingdom!" Bilbo said excitedly: "I know, I have also met a young prince of the kingdom of Arnor, he came to negotiate the purchase of charr tobacco for the royal family of Gondor, he is very polite, so I gave him a very friendly price, that prince should be called ...... Hmm, Alazon? ”
Xu Feng's brows moved slightly.
Arazon is the father of the future human emperor Aragon!
The history of Middle-earth is really closely related!
Gandalf nodded and smiled, "Well, Alathon is very good, I think he is the best candidate to have a chance to unite the three kingdoms of the Terrans, Arno, Rohan, and Gondor." ”
Bilbo laughed, "I hope he lives a long life." ”
In fact, two years after Aragorn got married, he gave birth to Aragorn, and when Aragorn was two years old, Arazon was ambushed and died, the kingdom of Arno was disrupted, and the unity of the three kingdoms of the human race was stranded again, and Aragorn's mother could only send the two-year-old Aragorn to the elven kingdom and hand it over to King Elon to raise.
It wasn't until Aragorn was twenty years old that King Elon told Aragon that he was the king of the Terran race, which inspired Aragorn's ambition to revive the Terran race.
Of course, this is all what happened later, and these things, whether it was Bilbo or Gandalf, were unpredictable.
Xu Feng already knew the future direction of the plot, but at this time, he could only be silent, his goal was not to save the Terrans in Middle-earth, but to complete a series of bounty tasks.
The most important thing is to maintain harmony with all parties on the premise of completing a series of bounty tasks.
Bilbo likes Prince Arazon, naturally, out of a friendly neighborly mentality.
There are three kingdoms of mankind, the kingdom of Arnor in the north, the kingdom of Rohan in the lower middle, and the kingdom of Gondor in the southernmost part.
Originally, these three kingdoms were all of the same origin, they were all descendants of the Dengdan tribe, and their first king was the prince who cut off the hand of the demon lord Sauron's Ring, Essidor.
Essidor and Elven King Elon are very good friends, after slaying the Ring, the two support each other to the Doomsday Volcano to melt the Demon Lord, but at the last moment, greedy lust consumes Essidor, who takes the Demon Lord and proclaims himself Emperor of the Terrans.
Of course, he does deserve this title, because he is the first person in the history to cut off the hand of the Demon Lord in the form of a human being.
He founded the mighty kingdom of Gondor, but in the second year of the Second Age, he was hunted down by orcs and the Ringwraith, and died on the banks of the Anduin River, causing the Ring to fall and disappear.
After the death of the human emperor Esidor, there was also a power struggle within the kingdom of Gondor, and a royal blood went all the way north to establish the territory of Arno, and with the increase in population, the army and economy have grown, and Arno gradually formed a kingdom.
Later, there was another kingdom of Rohan between the two kingdoms, and the kingdom of Rohan did not have the real Esidor bloodline, and the only ones that really had the Esidor bloodline were the Gondor Kingdom and the Arnor Kingdom.
At this time, 37 generations have passed since the death of Essidor, after Arsson's accession to the throne, it will be the 38th generation, and the future Aragorn will be the 39th generation.
The three kingdoms of the Terrans are all competing with each other, and such a struggle has undoubtedly increased the internal friction between the Terrans, and the dark forces in their kingdom territories have gradually grown and developed.
In this era, the strength of monsters should not be underestimated.
Therefore, whether it is the Holy White Council or the aristocratic rulers of the Terran race, they all hope that the three three kingdoms can be recombined into one, so that the Terrans can unite with the outside world and eliminate the monsters that are gradually becoming stronger.
Arsson is the leader of the younger generation of the Terran royal family, and his upcoming wife is also the princess of the kingdom of Gondor, so that the bloodlines of Essidor will be further united, and it will be easier to promote the merger of the three kingdoms.
It's a pity......
Xu Feng sighed slightly.
Gandalf pointed to the path ahead and said, "If my memory is correct, further on, there is Bray Town, which is a relatively prosperous Terran town, where there are Terran armies and Terran consuls, we can ask them for support." ”
Thorin said coldly, "I never counted on humans. ”
Gandalf smiled: "Thorin, I understand your feelings, but the road you have to take now is the road to recovery, this road is very difficult to walk, and you need more allies to do it." ”
Thorin thought for a moment, "Okay, but I'm not going to ask them. ”
Gandalf smiled: "Just let me mention it, I, the gray-robed mage of the Holy White Council, should still be a little thin-faced." ”
Bray Town?
Xu Feng thought about it carefully, he didn't remember that it was in the Lord of the Rings movie.
It seems that the bounty quest of the Lord of the Rings series really disagrees with the movie, the movie covers too few aspects, but the real Middle-earth is extremely majestic.
The dwarven party moved on.
It wasn't until near noon that they entered Bray's territory.
"Stop!"
Thorin, who was at the front of the line, suddenly raised his hand.
The dwarven procession immediately stopped.
"What's going on?" Bilbo looked curiously ahead.
I saw a sign in the middle of the road, and a line was written in a crooked font:
"The plague ahead, don't enter!"
Gandalf frowned and said, "When did the plague start here?" Why didn't the Holy White Council hear from it? ”
Thorin said, "When did you leave the White Council? ”
Gandalf thought for a moment, "About a week ago, I started to help you connect with the forces a week ago. ”
"A week is enough time for the plague to spread," Thorin said. ”
Gandalf frowned and said, "However, I didn't receive a notification from the white-robed Saruman. ”
Thorin scoffed, "That only shows that Saruman doesn't care about you at all. ”
Gandalf took a sip of Charles tobacco, and at this time, only Charr's tobacco could calm his depressed mood.
Thorin said coldly: "We have the heavy responsibility of recovering the country, I don't want to be infected with the plague of humans, Bahrain, and that road can lead us to the Lonely Mountain?" ”
Bahrain hesitated, "Yes, yes, but, in that case, we will have to return to the Shire, and then from the east hill of the Shire, first to the capital of Arno, and then from the capital of Arno, this is tantamount to going around in a big circle, and I am afraid that we will waste more than a week." ”
Thorin frowned.
Bahrain added: "Moreover, we do not know if there is a plague in the capital of Arno. ”
