Chapter 64: Saruman
However, due to the loss of the One Ring, Sauron's power was severely weakened. He could only transform into an eye and spy on Middle-earth every day.
So far, Sauron was forced to become a dead house.
Conquests and such can only be thought of for the time being.
Although Sauron is a poor guy, he is at least a poor guy who was once awesome.
People in Middle-earth all think that it is not a big deal for the Eye of Sauron to look around everywhere.
The privacy rights of people in Middle-earth have been destroyed, okay?
And what if one day it comes back?
So, when the missing One Ring was obtained by the Hobbit Frodo, the gray-robed wizard Gandalf, who was originally responsible for fighting Sauron and was also one of the Maiar, appeared in front of him.
He asked Frodo to take the ring to the territory of the elves, Rivendell.
There, a group of people - elves, humans, and dwarves - held a meeting.
Finally, it was decided that Frodo and his team would take the ring to Mount Doom, the place where the ring was made, and the only place in the legend that could destroy the ring and completely kill Sauron.
Destroy the ring and completely eliminate Sauron, the hidden danger.
They took on the task of entering Mordor and destroying the Supreme Ring.
Because the Supreme Ring contains the power of Sauron, it will corrupt the soul and make the holder fall.
Therefore, the innocent Hobbit Frodo also became the only holder of the ring.
Others are very likely to be affected by the ring and fall.
In history, the only person who could truly resist the power of the ring and voluntarily give it up was Bilbo Baggins, who inherited the ring to his cousin Frodo.
Now the ring is kept by Frodo.
These people originally planned to cross the Misty Mountains.
But because the original white wizard Saruman fell, he joined Sauron and cooperated with him.
In order to stop the ring team, he used his power to cause a blizzard in the Misty Mountains and collapsed the road.
The Fellowship of the Ring can only return and find a way to Mordor again.
Lucifer is very interested in the Supreme Ring, especially the special existence of the Ringwraiths. The three rings of the elves have the ability to control the elements, and the nine rings of humans are immortal.
Even if it is only the immortality of the movie version, not the original version, it is still very powerful.
"Maia from other worlds, what are you doing in this world?"
Gandalf asked Lucifer.
"Oh, nothing, I just came to travel."
Lucifer was not interested in Gandalf and his group, but wanted to catch dragons, giant spiders, giant eagles and giant wolves to study them, and by the way, kidnap Saruman, the technology expert.
What a good Maia, studying technology, developing biotechnology, and improving the species of orcs. He and Kinos should have a lot in common, one mysterious side, and the other I think, maybe he can help Lucifer mass-produce dragon-level monsters faster.
So Lucifer left directly.
The Fellowship of the Ring looked at each other, and then said nothing. They were going to change their route next.
Lucifer flew towards a place called Isengard.
It was a place abandoned by Gondor, and was turned into an important defense of the free lands in the west by the former white-robed wizard Saruman.
Now Saruman has fallen, and he calls himself Saruman of the Colored Robe.
Isengard is now naturally occupied by the new race created by Saruman, the orcs who are not afraid of the sun.
Isengard is Saruman's lair, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is occupied by a large number of orcs.
It has become another evil place in Middle-earth after Mordor.
It is naturally not a simple thing to enter such a place, and you need to pass many levels.
The difficulty is not much lower than entering Mordor.
However, the so-called "difficulty" is naturally only for the locals in Middle-earth. For Lucifer, this place is undefended.
He cut through the sky and appeared near the tower of Isengard-this is Saruman's residence and his laboratory.
Before Saruman could react and fight back.
Lucifer landed on the tower of Isengard.
All this happened so fast that Saruman's magical voice didn't even have time to sound.
The surrounding anti-aircraft defenses, which were really not very good, didn't have time to be used.
The last time the power of the wind king, the leader of the giant eagle Gandalf, escaped from Isengard, Saruman strengthened Isengard's defense against air strikes.
He was very confident that the next time a giant eagle flew over, it would definitely not leave as easily as last time.
Unexpectedly, it was not a giant eagle that came this time, but a Kryptonian.
Lucifer was able to find this place thanks to his super vision and super hearing. Now he can observe a large range, and the speed at which the super brain processes information is much faster than before, so he can fly straight here.
The sound of the horn sounded from the tower of Isengard.
The intruder landed on the tower in a swagger, and the whole of Isengard was shaken.
If this gets out, where will Saruman's face be?
"Is Saruman here?"
Lucifer asked.
Behind him, a huge "feather arrow" or crossbow arrow as thick as an adult's arm shot straight at him.
Lucifer turned around and grabbed the arrow.
Then he threw it back. As soon as the arrow left his hand, there was a loud bang, and the Mach Ring whizzed out, instantly separating hundreds of orcs and drawing a bloody line between them.
Countless pieces of debris fell, and blood flowed like a river.
A simple and powerful voice suddenly came from the tower.
A simple syllable, not a special word.
The sound of the horn stopped after the syllable, and the orcs who had started howling and preparing for battle gradually quieted down.
About half a minute later, a gray-black skinned orc came to Lucifer.
"The master invites you to come over."
The orc growled and made an unclear sound, looking at Lucifer cruelly. He didn't know how Lucifer did it just now, but he was very strong.
"Lead the way."
After Lucifer showed his strength a little, he knew that Saruman would definitely not sit still.
Soon, the orcs took Lucifer to the room where Saruman was in the tower.
Saruman was an old man with white hair and beard, holding a black wand with a round gem on the top.
Compared with Gandalf, this man was tall, but he looked thin and his cheeks were a little sunken.
His overall image is obviously more in line with the feeling of a normal wizard.
"Who are you?"
Saruman looked at Lucifer and asked his own question.
Saruman is a very "scientifically literate" person.
His "technological level" is also top-notch in Middle-earth. He not only created the orcs.
He is also proficient in machinery and chemistry, and invented explosives using fire and gravel.
