Chapter 276 Worst Plan, Gandalf's Request
·
Jing Shen Tian Si
Aaron was a little dazed, what's going on?Has the King of the Woodlands offered himself an olive branch?
The elves' friendship was right in front of him, but Aaron shook his head after hesitating for a moment, "Thank you for your consideration, but Thorin and the others are my friends."
"Legolas can also be your friend." Thranduil laughed. "His personality is ten thousand times stronger than the stubborn dwarves. You will definitely get along well."
Aaron: …
Are you really mean to say that?Who put us in the dungeon by hand?
puff!
Untimely laughter sounded in the big tent, and Bilbo blinked in embarrassment.
"Well... a lot of people admire him, dwarves, Smaug, humans, and now elves."
"Wait." Gandalf asked unexpectedly, "You mean Smaug?"
"When Smaug was in Irubor, he offered to cooperate with Aaron. They could create an unprecedented huge kingdom, but he refused."
After the words fell, the human representatives in the big tent, the elf king, and the gray-robed wizard all looked at Aaron in astonishment, wondering what kind of magical power this child possessed to attract the favor of the dragon.
"Haha, don't look at me like that, I'm so embarrassed." Aaron said awkwardly, "I'm just an ordinary magician, I just know a little bit of dragon language."
"Who the hell are you?" Bud asked curiously, "Ability and age don't match at all."
"Do you really want to know?"
Bud nodded blankly, and the others were also aroused curiosity.
"Okay, since you asked the question sincerely, then I will tell you reluctantly." Aaron cleared his throat and said with his head held high, "I am the only heir of the Gaius family, and I am the best in a hundred years. The one, my father and grandfather agreed that I would restore the glory of the family, and in fact I am doing so now."
Crowd:......
He seemed to say something, but he didn't seem to say anything.
"Let's get down to business!" Gandalf broke the inexplicable atmosphere in the big tent, "King Thranduil, three days can prove everything."
"But if I don't get what I want, I will have to fight with each other." Thranduil said, "The anger of the elves is no worse than that of the dwarves, I hope you, especially someone, will not let me down. "
"Certainly not," Gandalf promised. "We must go to Irubor, and let Thorin tell Dane that his temper will be more violent, and it will be bad if he can't restrain the Iron Foot."
"Wait." Aaron stopped him, his face became a little dignified, "I overlooked a question, the orcs will take two days at the latest to arrive at the Lonely Mountain, and the earliest?"
"Then our time is even shorter. If we march quickly, the enemy may arrive tomorrow."
"When is tomorrow?" Aaron pressed, "Morning, noon, or evening?"
Gandalf frowned and said thoughtfully, "It should be noon if there is no accident."
"Then what happened?" Aaron looked nervously at the slowly setting sun outside. "This is a war, and intelligence errors can be fatal. We have to prepare for the worst."
Gandalf was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said in a flustered voice, "Dawn, if it's the fastest, the army of half-orcs will come to the city at dawn tomorrow."
"So fast?" Bilbo said that he couldn't accept it. They didn't even have time to prepare, and the enemy's army was about to kill them.
"It's that fast." Gandalf said anxiously, "King Thranduil, please let the army be organized and ready for battle at any time."
Thranduil frowned slightly, and pondered: "The elves will line up in front of River Valley City tomorrow morning. You have to explain clearly to Oak Shield. If he misunderstands, I won't restrain myself."
"I will try my best to convince him."
"Bud." Aaron said, "You have also prepared the people of Changhu to fight, and you would rather believe in something than nothing.
In addition, the gold you want may have to be delayed for a few days, until the battle is over. "
Bud nodded, and then walked out of the big tent.
Gandalf also followed Aaron and Bilbo to Irubor.
When he got under the city wall, Gandalf looked at the hanging rope and felt a hint of malice inexplicably.
Can't we get a hanging basket?Is it really appropriate for him to go up the city wall with a rope at his age?
"Gandalf." Kili in the city urged, "What are you doing here, hold on to the rope, and we will pull you up."
Gandalf shook his head helplessly, tied the rope around himself, and was pulled up by several dwarves.
"Why do you think his expression is so awkward?" Bilbo frowned.
"It's going to be more awkward next time." Aaron tied Bilbo in a knot with the rope. "Thorin is not so easy to persuade."
"It's true, it's troublesome to think about it."
A few people went up to the city wall, and a group of dwarves immediately surrounded them.
"How did the talk go?" Barrin asked. "What did Bud say?"
"If the money is in place, he won't start a war."
"That's good." Balin breathed a sigh of relief, "We can fight elves, but there is really no need to fight humans."
"Gandalf, where have you been?" Bofur looked at him puzzled, "Why did you come here?"
"Something has happened, Bofur.
What about Thorin?This matter must let him know. "
"Sorin he..." Balin paused a little, "he is sitting on the throne in the hall."
"My God!" Gandalf rolled his eyes. "He's going the way of his grandfather, and this is the hour."
"No way!" said Bilbo. "He's allowed us to give some of the gold to the people of Long Lake!"
"That can only prove that he was able to stay awake before, but it's really hard to say now." Gandalf said a little tiredly, "Don't underestimate the magic power of gold, and it is gold that has been occupied by dragons for a long time. Anyone who enters this mountain will be polluted by the evil breath of the dragon."
"Not everyone." Aaron looked at Bilbo, and then at the dozen or so dwarves beside him. "Absolutely not. I have confidence in Thorin. He will not be his grandfather."
"I hope!" sighed Gandalf, and hurried down the stairs.
When they came to the hall, the three of them stood among the massive amount of gold coins, looking up at Sorin wearing the crown.
At this moment, Sorin made them all feel a little strange, his eyes were dull and almost colorless.
Aaron and Bilbo looked at each other. They had only been away for a long time, and Thorin had changed a bit too much.
"Thorin."
"Gandalf, have you come back to celebrate me?"
"No, I'm here to inform you.
The orc army is on the way, and they are preparing to attack Irubor. "
"Dan's Iron Foot will kill them all, and damn anyone who tries to steal my gold."
Aaron frowned slightly, "What about the one promised to the people of Changhu?"
"This, I, this is different." Thorin struggled for a moment, then said falteringly: "I will give them, but isn't one fifteenth too much?"
Aaron smiled lightly and shook his head, hoping Thorin could come out by himself, otherwise he could only use some unconventional means.
"One-fifteenth is indeed a little too much, let's just halve it!
One-thirtieth is fine. "
"Aaron." Sorin smiled gratifiedly, "That's right! You don't have to wrong yourself for those irrelevant people.
looking for me? "
"The army of Orcs," Gandalf anxiously emphasized, "they will attack Irubor tomorrow at the earliest, and the day after tomorrow at the latest.
We want you to explain to Dan, don't start a war with the elves, and face the powerful enemy together is the most important thing at the moment. "
"Understood." Thorin said indifferently, "Dan is my cousin, he will listen to me, but he doesn't like elves like me."
"There is no problem with Thranduil," said Bilbo. "The army of the elves will be stationed in Dale State, and will not attack Irubor for a while."
"They don't have that ability either." A look of disdain flashed in Thorin's eyes, "You guys have a good rest, put on your armor and weapons tomorrow, and protect our gold."
The three looked at each other in blank dismay, but since the goal was achieved, there was no need to waste time.
After leaving the hall, Bilbo went to the city gate and told the other dwarves about the content of their negotiations in Dale City, emphasizing that the orcs might come back to attack Irubor, so that everyone was ready for battle.
Gandalf found Aaron, "I should say sorry to you, if I'm not mistaken, the most difficult work in the team should have fallen on you!"
"Speak directly." Aaron rolled his eyes, "Although I am young, don't fool me like a child, you can't fool me."
Gandalf froze for a moment, "I mean it."
"I'm sincere too." Aaron spread his hands, "So can you be more honest?"
"Okay!" Gandalf hesitated for a while, "I can see that you don't want to participate in the war very much, but I still hope that you can do more for the coalition forces without reservation."
"Tsk tsk tsk!" Aaron smacked his lips and looked at Gandalf with a half-smile, "Leaving the team halfway, Thorin and the others were almost eaten by a giant spider in the dark forest. You are not here, and I risked my life to lure them away." More than 20 spiders saved everyone's life.
When we were locked in the dungeon by the woodland elves, you were not there, and I broke the door and let Bilbo out to find the waterway.
We were chased by Borg all the way, Kili was hit by a Morgul arrow, and almost died of poison. You are not here, it is the medicine I prepared that hangs his life.
Finally arrived at the day of Turin, and Thorin and the others couldn't find the secret door. You were not here, so I took it out...the magic compass found the keyhole.
The most unreasonable thing is that when we were fighting Smaug, you were not there. I spent a lot of magic power and a piece of magic crystal to set a trap in Long Lake Town to kill it. "
Several consecutive "you are not here" beat Gandalf's heart heavily, which made him unable to lift his head in embarrassment, and the word "sorry" blurted out. After all, he walked freely at the beginning, but most of the pressure was gone. It fell on a young man named Aaron, which was somewhat unkind.
"Although your apology is not sincere, I still reluctantly accept it.
But what I want to say is that I can hold back that you have not respecting you, you have honored the elderly and the young. Where did you make me more effort? "
Gandalf: …
