Chapter 184: Air Alertness
The Eagle King folded his huge wings, squatted on the rock, and looked at the person in front of him carefully.
The Great Eagle is the messenger of the Valar, driven by Manwe, the head of the Valar.
Manwe, the master of air and wind, is also the world supervisor and manager designated by the creator god of this world, "Eru". He maintains the order of the world and uses his power to correct those disharmonious things.
As the messenger of the King of the World, the Great Eagles have a very long lifespan. Many members are not younger than the elves. They have witnessed countless history.
"I hope my project has not disturbed your life."
As soon as they met, Levi got straight to the point without any detours.
"No one can disturb our lives. You worry too much, Legend Levi."
The Eagle King's attitude was quite gentle.
The human beings in front of him were too strange. It was rare to create so many legends in a short period of time throughout history.
Moreover, legend is one aspect, and even for the Eagle King and the Great Eagles, this aspect does not account for too much.
Mainly, his attitude towards life is really familiar.
If I had to say, it was a bit like Gandalf next to him.
Before coming to Middle-earth, Gandalf, or Orolin, liked to walk around in a gray robe, witnessing various things and learning the wisdom in them. Sometimes he would turn into an elf and use his power to give other elves tips and help them develop.
Many elves had a flash of inspiration in their minds, which was actually because of him, but those elves would never find this out, because the person who reminded them would always disappear after doing so.
Orolin did not ask for any reward for doing this, because all rewards were meaningless to him. That attitude was like the gods playing with the world.
No, it should be said that it was indeed the gods playing with the world.
However, although they were somewhat similar in temperament, I was still not sure.
After all, the time this lord appeared was too short, only a few years, and nothing could be seen in just such a short time.
After another hundred years... or even a thousand years, some things will be revealed.
"That's good." Levi nodded.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"In fact, I have noticed that many enemies have bad intentions on this road, including spiders and orcs hiding in front of the Black Forest, and enemies still wandering in the wilderness..."
Some spiders tried to climb up from the decorative support pillars, but they all failed because the pillars were too high and too smooth.
Even if some climbed above the woods, they would be discouraged by the dazzling sunlight, and they would only move at a height below the woods.
Spiders are not to be feared. What is more difficult to deal with are the orcs and various beasts that still remain in the Black Mountains. They all escaped from Dol Guldur.
In addition to Dol Guldur, there is Gundabad. Although the Battle of Five Armies directly knocked down the density of orcs in Gundabad, it is still one of their bases, and it is also connected to many evil creatures in the north. Even if Levi plows a few times himself, it is difficult to completely eliminate it.
Some precautions are still needed.
"I know that no creature in the world can compare with the vision of the eagle."
Levi put forward his purpose.
"If there are any unusual movements, please let us know."
The eagle's nest is located on the eastern peak of the Misty Mountains. From here, you can see the entire forest, the river valley, and even the peak of the Lonely Mountain.
As long as it is within sight, nothing can escape the sight of the eagles.
If they can help, everything that happens in this large area will be as transparent as transparent.
"This is not a big deal."
The Eagle King raised his head proudly.
"We have been conveying information to friends around us."
At this time, Gandalf stood up and explained: "The eagles often help the elves of the valley and Radagast to collect information. Sometimes I will ask for the help of the eagles, and they never refuse."
"But the humans in Rhovanion..."
Gandalf shook his head slowly and reminded Levi in a low voice: "They are not very friendly to the eagles. Some unreasonable people raised their longbows to them because they were afraid that the eagles would catch their sheep. Since then, the eagles have not had any communication with the humans here."
Levi's mouth twitched.
The humans of Rhovanian... they almost said the names of River Valley and Long Lake Town.
Actually, it's not their fault.
After all, humans don't live as long as elves and wizards. Their ancestors may know what the Great Eagle is, but it's not certain after a few generations.
"I apologize for the recklessness of those people."
"It's okay."
The Eagle King responded: "We will continue to watch this area. If anything noteworthy happens, you will know it."
And the price of passing on the message...
"Just let your people put away their bows."
The Eagle King said something that was quite unexpected.
A person's name is like a tree's shadow.
Those legends that have been circulating have long confirmed that the valley is no longer what it used to be.
"I believe that under the leadership of you, the new lord, the humans in the valley will no longer do stupid things."
"I'm glad that the unpleasant things that happened in the past did not affect our interactions today."
Levi said: "I hope we can always live in harmony."
Witnessed by Gandalf, Levi and the Eagle King reached a consensus. The barrier between the eagles and the northern humans was broken today, and the two sides returned to friendship.
In addition, as a reward and compensation, the eagles no longer have to go to the wilderness every day to find prey and food. Just like thousands of years ago, they have providers again.
Meat and various foods are never lacking in Levi's territory. By the way, a little bit can be used to support the entire eagle clan.
It is worth paying such a small price to let the eagle help collect information and be alert to the eyes in the sky, such as bats.
However, in addition to the food reward...
Levi looked around and shook his head. He felt that this eagle's nest was really simple. Maybe he could take time to decorate it.
There is always a style they will like.
Flipping through various building plans in his mind, Levi was also a little itchy.
On the eagle's nest, some things about cooperation were initially decided. The two people and the eagle were talking about the future development of this area and some trivial matters. Suddenly, the Eagle King raised his head and looked north.
It just stood there, staring into the distance, without moving for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Gandalf couldn't help asking.
"It's from Gundabad."
The Eagle King warned: "Some beasts and Orcs have set out, there are quite a few, at least thousands, and they are running down the mountain."
"Are they going to attack Dale or Lake Town?"
Gandalf looked at Levi.
"Ah?"
Is this something that is delivered to the door?
Levi rubbed his hands, and was also quite curious.
Did these Orcs finally go crazy after losing their leader?
However, thinking about it carefully, it is not very reasonable.
It is unlikely that the Orcs will attack those two places.
Even if they want to attack Lake Town or Dale, they should not go this way. According to this route, are they going to pass through the Mirkwood?
In that case, the army of Dale would not need to take action. It is estimated that as soon as they step into the Mirkwood, they will be completely annihilated by the woodland elves.
