Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth

It can be said that with the Crystal of True Knowledge, he is equivalent to having a clairvoyance that can make decisions from thousands of miles away.

You can even use it to see things from the distant past and explore ancient secrets.

But Gandalf immediately warned Dui, "Dui, you must use this Palantir with caution. Especially do not use it to try to contact other Palantirs, because you have no idea who else is using the other Palantirs whose whereabouts are unknown."

"I understand. Thank you for your reminder. I will use it with caution." Dui nodded seriously.

As far as he knew, both the Dark Lord Sauron and the White Wizard Saruman had a Palantir in their hands. It was because of using the Palantir that Saruman was controlled by Sauron and thus fell into corruption and chose to betray the side of justice.

Even Saruman could be corrupted by Sauron through the Palantir, so he naturally would not overestimate his own abilities and try to contact other Palantirs.

Dui was very happy to obtain the Stone of True Knowledge, a treasure that even Gandalf envied. Even the pile of treasures in the cave could not make him excited.

Gandalf has comforted the villagers outside who were imprisoned by the trolls and rekindled their hope and courage.

As before, the two men distributed part of the money to the villagers and asked them to use the money to leave the area, either by boat south to the southern human kingdom, or west to the vicinity of Weathertop in Dui or the town of Bree further west.

Dui once again summoned a cobra that could recognize the way, and let the frightened villagers follow the cobra out of the forest.

Chapter 59 Rescue Expedition

After doing all this, Dui sealed and hid the treasure with magic and would collect it when he came back.

Then they went on to find the next troll cave.

However, this time, because they had the Crystal of True Knowledge, it was actually easier for the two to search.

"Let me see, where is the next ogre?" Dui held the crystal of true knowledge and tried to concentrate his mind and stare at it.

Gandalf also came over and looked at the light mist in the crystal ball expectantly.

In an instant, a picture appeared in the crystal ball.

However, the scene that appeared surprised the two of them.

Because the picture showed Thorin and others, who were tied to a tree trunk by three ogres and put on the fire to be roasted.

Among them, Bilbo remained calm in the face of danger and showed enough composure and wisdom. He used words to distract the attention of the three trolls, saying that the dwarves were sick and would get sick if they ate it. He also took advantage of the conflicts between the three trolls and provoked them to quarrel with each other by using uneven distribution, constantly delaying time.

Seeing the crystal ball showing that Thorin and the others were trapped, Gandalf did not show any anxiety. Instead, he commented happily: "It seems that my choice was right. Bilbo is indeed the best choice for the Snitch. Putting him with the dwarves, his shining points are becoming more and more apparent."

Due was not as calm as Gandalf. He did not expect that even with this variable, they would still encounter three trolls.

While lamenting the inertia of fate, he hurriedly urged, "Bilbo and the others don't look like they can hold on for much longer. Gandalf, we should hurry and rescue them!"

The situation was urgent, so Gandalf and Duey rushed towards Thorin and the others without stopping. With the monitoring of the Palantir, they could see what was happening with Bilbo and the others at any time.

Soon, the two of them arrived near Bilbo and his friends.

Looking at the fire in the distance and the three huge ogre figures, the two men became slower and carefully hid behind the boulders.

"What to do? Should we go up and deal with them directly?" Dui asked in a low voice, tilting his head.

"Bilbo's provocation is very effective. Perhaps we don't need to do anything. They can delay until dawn." Gandalf said approvingly as he looked at the three ogres who were arguing and about to fight not far away.

"Of course, if you still have those potions from before, you can use them again to deal with them."

"I've run out of potions, and I don't have any left to deal with them." Dui shook his head and looked at the dwarves tied to the wood with a gloating look. "It seems I can only let them suffer for a while longer. Let's wait until dawn."

Although he said this, he did not stop his actions. He quickly cast a Disillusionment Spell on himself and Gandalf, and then the two of them became invisible and slowly approached the fire.

The three ogres were still arguing fiercely about how to divide the number of people, and they didn't notice that someone was quietly approaching behind them.

"Confuse the audience~" A subtle voice sounded, barely audible in the wind.

The three ogres suddenly became dazed, and their not-so-bright heads were only obsessed with food. They only wanted to get the largest number of dwarves, so they were full of hostility towards their other two companions.

There was a voice in his head constantly tempting him that as long as he killed the other party, all the dwarves would be his.

It was unknown who started the fight first, but soon the three ogres were fighting each other in front of the astonished gazes of the dwarves. They were like sworn enemies, trying their best to kill each other.

In an instant, the surrounding trees and boulders became weapons in their hands. The place where they fought was in a mess and the trees were destroyed.

Only the place where Thorin and others were was protected by an invisible barrier, blocking the impact of the rubble.

The dwarves who saw this scene were immediately delighted.

Bilbo turned his head in surprise, searching everywhere, and whispered to the air, "Duir, is that you?"

The fight between the ogres became more and more intense, and finally stopped with almost all of them suffering heavy losses.

One ogre was hit on the head by a huge rock and fell to the ground with blood all over his body; another had one hand and one foot broken and lost his ability to move; the remaining one, who was the final winner, also won at the cost of being seriously injured.

"Hehe, mine, these are all my food!" said the ogre happily after winning the tragic victory.

But before it could finish being happy, a flaming sword pierced through its chest, releasing a scorching golden flame that burned its heart to ashes.

And the man holding the sword was Gandalf.

Seeing this sudden scene, the other ogre with broken hands and feet was terrified and quickly stood up on one foot to run away.

But the next second, two sharp daggers instantly pierced into its most vulnerable eyes, turning the disabled ogre blind again.

The ogre screamed in pain and, having lost its eyes, ran around like a headless fly.

"Dui'ir, take it!" Gandalf threw the sword over.

Dui caught the flaming sword and stabbed it into the ogre's back, releasing a raging fire.

The ogre's screams stopped abruptly and he fell to the ground.

Dui drew his sword, came to the last unconscious ogre, and easily defeated it.

In this way, all three trolls were dealt with by Due and Gandalf.

As Due struggled to pull his two daggers out of the ogre's eyes and wiped off the black blood on them with disgust, Gandalf had already untied Bilbo and the dwarves.

Bilbo and the dwarves were very excited and grateful to see Due and Gandalf kill the three trolls so easily and rescue them.

Even the most stubborn Thorin solemnly expressed his gratitude to Dewi and Gandalf.

"Dui'er, what is this?" Bilbo asked in surprise and curiosity when he saw Dui bringing a huge black crystal ball.

"Is this the Crystal of True Knowledge?!" Thorin Oakenshield was very surprised. As the heir of Durin's clan, he had extraordinary knowledge and recognized it immediately.

Seeing that Thorin recognized it, Dewi didn't hide it and nodded with a smile, "We found it in a troll cave. We happened to see you trapped from it, so Gandalf and I rushed here without stopping."

Hearing this, Thorin was very envious.

If the Du Lin clan also had a crystal of true knowledge, they would have been able to discover the dragon's presence in advance and would not have lost Lonely Mountain and been forced into exile.

He rescued everyone and brought back the horses that were captured by the trolls, including Duy's pony Xiaodai and the carriage.

The carriage was protected by Dui's magic, so it was not damaged and the things inside were not lost, including the pot of mature mandrake.

A mature mandrake is a powerful weapon, but unfortunately Dui has not learned the spell to block hearing, so he can only cast a petrification spell on it regularly to prevent it from killing itself without killing the enemy first.

After putting the Crystal of True Knowledge into the carriage, Dui suggested that everyone go to explore the cave of the three ogres.

He remembered that Gandalf's smiter and Bilbo's Sting were both found there.

Chapter 60 Elf Sword

The ogre's cave was nearby. With the help of the Crystal of True Knowledge, Dui brought everyone directly to the cave without having to look for them.

The ogre cave was as smelly as ever. When everyone entered the cave, they found a pile of gold coins and treasures in the deepest part.

Dui had his goal determined, so he ignored the treasure and searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the elven swords.

Sure enough, Dui soon found several gray swords in a corner full of cobwebs and dust.

There were three swords, two long and one short. The two long swords were in beautiful scabbards with huge gems inlaid on the hilts, while the short sword was placed in a leather sheath.

These swords have been here for a long time and are covered with thick dust, but there is not a trace of rust. Even the leather sheaths that are the most difficult to preserve are as good as new, without any signs of corrosion from time.

Is this the magic of the elves? Dui couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Duir, have you found anything good again?" Gandalf noticed Duir's movements and walked over curiously and asked.

Others were also attracted over.

Dui smiled and nodded, showing the three swords in front of him to everyone: "I found three swords, they look quite extraordinary."

After hearing what Dewi said, Gandalf became even more curious, "Can you show it to me?"

Dui handed over a long sword.

Gandalf took the sword, looked at the blade, and commented: "The scabbard is made of ivory and is beautifully carved. It looks like the work of an elf."

As he spoke, he drew out the sword, which shone with a cold light, dazzling even in the dim cave.

Gandalf stroked the sword and saw the mysterious inscription on it. He carefully deciphered it and said, "Glamdring, this is Sindarin, meaning hammer to strike the enemy. It seems that this is a sword belonging to the elves."

Gandalf put it down reluctantly and seemed to like the sword a little.

He then picked up another longsword. When he drew it out, it turned out to be a slender, curved sword with an extremely sharp blade. It was engraved with an inscription in Sindarin: "Ocrest, meaning Goblin Cutter. The hilt has the breath of a dragon. Is it made of a dragon's tooth?"

Gandalf was very surprised. Dragons were Maia-level creatures with almost no rivals. The hilt of this elven sword was made of dragon teeth, which meant that a dragon had once died at the hands of the elves, and only then was it possible to obtain dragon teeth.

The others also looked at the sword curiously, after all, they were facing a giant dragon.

Finally, Gandalf picked up the dagger and examined it, but because there was no inscription on it, he had no idea about the dagger. He could only conclude that it was also a sword forged by elves.

Seeing Gandalf's eyes linger on the first sword, Dui smiled in his heart. It seemed that this sword and Gandalf had a special connection.

In Gandalf's surprised eyes, he handed the sword that originally belonged to him to him and said: "Gandalf, you don't have a sword that suits you, so this sword of hammer belongs to you."

Gandalf really liked the sword, and without any hesitation, he took the sword solemnly and said, "I owe you a favor!"

Dewi shook his head. After several battles with the trolls, the relationship between him and Gandalf grew deeper. He gave the sword to Gandalf not with the intention of repaying a favor, but with the idea of ​​returning it to its original owner.

Then he turned his eyes to Bilbo, handed him the short sword, and said with a smile: "This sword is most suitable for you. From now on, it belongs to you!"

Amidst the envious gazes of the dwarves, Bilbo waved his hands in a somewhat flattered manner: "Dui'er, you've already given me a dagger, so there's no need for this sword!"

Dui ignored his refusal and directly pressed the dagger into his hand. "Take it. The dagger before was just an ordinary weapon and could not protect you. Now this dagger is a weapon forged by elves. Use it to protect yourself."

Seeing that Duyle insisted, Bilbo no longer refused and took the dagger with a touched look on his face: "Thank you, Duyle!", then solemnly hung the dagger and the previous dagger on both sides of his waist.

Then, under the eager gazes of the dwarves, Dui put away the last beast-bite sword and had no intention of continuing to be a money-giving boy.

Gandalf and Bilbo were Dewy's recognized friends, so he had no regrets about giving them the Elf Sword.

But he and the dwarves have always had a trading relationship. Although he already has the Flaming Sword, he is not generous enough to give the other party the sword.
