Chapter 208: This Matter Is Outrageous
King Elon knew that Gandalf was a minor god of Maia, one of the guardians of Middle-earth arranged by the main god.
Therefore, in the eyes of King Elrond, if there is anyone here who can defeat four hundred, it must be Gandalf.
However, King Elon was still a little unsure in his heart.
He had fought alongside Gandalf since the First Age, and he knew that Gandalf was not a militant mage, and that both Gandalf and Redagast were strong, but their focus was on helping Middle-earth build order and environment.
To put it bluntly, they are subordinate gods of business, Gandalf is in charge of relations and order in the nations, and Ridagast is in charge of species and the environment.
And in charge of the battle are the white-robed mage Saruman, and the previous black-robed mage Sauron.
The white-robed mage Saruman thought that he was the best in the world, but in fact, at the end of the First Age, the black-robed mage Sauron had far surpassed the white-robed mage Saruman.
If the white-robed mage Saruman was here, it would be a bit difficult to kill four hundred orc scouts, but it should still be possible.
And Gandalf's combat strength is far from the white-robed mage Saruman, but it is a big difference.
In terms of strength, it is impossible for Gandalf to kill four hundred orc scouts, unless...... Over the millennia, Gandalf's strength has increased dramatically, and it has grown in a radical way.
If that's the case, that's a great thing to congratulate.
Gandalf shook his head with a smile, "Actually, I didn't kill any of them, I just made a few magic blizzards to slow down the escape of those terrified and desperate orc scouts." β
King Elon was immediately confused.
If not Gandalf, then who else?
It's not his baby daughter Arwen, right?
Yawen's combat power is naturally good among the young elf generation, after all, Yawen was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he has received a good education since his birth, whether it is in magic or in terms of fighting skills, he is much higher than his peers.
But......
Saying that Arwen alone can fight ten orc scouts, King Elon still believes it.
It's not impossible to hit twenty.
But to hit forty is a bit of a bragging.
Four hundred, then it's not just bragging, it's blowing the sky.
After all, even King Elon himself didn't dare to say that with a dozen dwarves and a few humans, he could destroy four hundred orc scouts.
Could it be that this is a great joy for Yawen, deliberately exaggerated?
That's not good.
King Ayron couldn't help but frown slightly.
Among the elves, King Elon was already older than other elves, but now he frowned like an old man.
Seeing King Elon's concern, Arwen hurriedly smiled and said, "Father, it wasn't me who killed more than four hundred and half orc scouts, but this one beside me, Lord Diedi. β
As he spoke, Yawen pointed at Xu Feng very solemnly.
King Elon looked at Xu Feng suspiciouslyβhis body was so thin, could this guy kill four hundred orc scouts?
Gandalf smiled and nodded at King Elrond, affirming Arvin's words.
King Elon still didn't believe it.
Although Gandalf has a high status and never jokes about such things, four hundred orc scouts! This is an astonishing feat! How can a mere human being do that?
"What about the corpses?" King Elon frowned and asked, "You said that he single-handedly solved more than four hundred and half orc scouts, so what about the corpses of these scouts?" β
Xu Feng smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty King Ailong, what they said is too exaggerated. β
King Elon smiled coldly, "Hmph, I'll just say it." β
As he spoke, he glared at Princess Arwen reproachfully.
Princess Yawen was just about to open her rebuttal, but she heard Xu Feng continue to say slowly: "These more than four hundred orc scouts, I didn't kill them alone, Princess Yawen also had a share, and the Snow Emperor and the Iron Hammer also killed a lot, and the dwarf brothers also killed a lot, this credit really can't be counted on my head alone." β
Thorin and the other dwarves bowed slightly to Xu Feng to show their gratitude.
Xu Feng has not forgotten their credit, which makes them very happy.
After all, they also participated in the battle to kill more than 400 orc scouts, and naturally they also had a part in this grand feat.
King Elon was stunned and said, "You...... And what about the corpses of more than four hundred half-orc scouts? Even the corpses of forty orc scouts could build a hill here, right? β
Xu Feng smiled: "We have adopted a gradual ambush strategy, so we can't leave corpses on the ground, so as not to arouse the vigilance of the later orc scouts, so we have thrown the corpses of the half-orcs into the swamp quagmire, if King Elon doesn't believe it, you can send your elven cavalry to dig up the quagmire and take a look." β
Arvin's face was slightly displeased, "Father, don't you believe what your daughter said?" Do you think your daughter is cheating on you? β
Gandalf was also not very happy and said: "Eldron, my old friend, our friendship can be said to be so long, why can't even what I say be good?" β
King Ayron hurriedly said, "No, no, of course I didn't mean that, it's just ...... It's outrageous. More than four hundred and a half orc scouts...... You just destroyed it? β
Thorin said unceremoniously: "What you can't do yourself, don't think we can't do it too." β
King Elon glanced down at Thorin, "...... You are? β
Thorin straightened his back proudly, "I am the grandson of King Thor, Prince Thorin after the Palace of the Lonely Mountain. β
It stands to reason that a prince should bow down when he sees a king, but Thorin has always been prejudiced against the elves, and even though Xu Feng has already explained to him that the elves' performance in the Battle of Lonely Mountain is not a betrayal, Thorin is still prejudiced against the elves.
Especially this time, King Elon actually questioned their record, and Thorin's self-esteem naturally couldn't stand it.
King Elon bowed slightly to Thorin, "It turns out that he is the prince of the dwarves of the lonely mountain, and I have been friends with your grandfather Thor, and when he was very young, he often came to my palace to play." β
Groove ......
Thorin was flushed with anger.
Even his grandfather's status in front of King Ayron is so low, so he, the royal grandson, is naturally even lower.
Gandalf stood up and said, "...... In short, the killing of four hundred orc scouts is true, and I can vouch for that with my status as the White Council. This is not the place to talk, and there is a possibility that the orc forces will fight back, so let's get out of here and go back to Rivendell and think about it in the long run. βγ
Since Gandalf had said so, King Elon naturally did not dare to disbelieve it.
"Okay, Gandalf." King Elon smiled, "Welcome to Rivendell, heroes. β
