How to break into a ring

The author has something to say: In the movie, Gandalf knew that there was a Balrog under Moria, but in the original book, Gandalf didn’t know it at all. The original book also hinted that the migration of the golden forest elves was due to the Balrog, so did the elves know about it? It's Balrog... It's hard for OTZ to say, so just pretend you don't know...

From the edge of the Romanian Wasteland to the west bank of the Anduin River, the sky in the distance was shrouded in thick black smoke. It was pitch black, with dazzling lightning constantly appearing in the clouds, and a crimson light piled up on the top of the black peak. .

That is the direction of Mordor.

The ground shook, the river surged, many buildings facing the river were submerged, and some small cracks appeared on the originally solid city wall, and there were screams of panic everywhere.

In the Misty Mountains, the gray-robed wizard Gandalf suddenly stopped, pushed his hat with the tip of his staff, and looked at the eastern sky.This place is far away from Mordor, but the aftermath of the terrible earthquake still spread here. Loose stones kept rolling down the slopes and cliffs, and there were intermittent roars in the valley.

"The shadow of doom has come." Glorfindel walked to Gandalf's side, a few strands of blond hair came out from under the white cloak, shining like a meager hope in the darkness.

The big earthquake didn't last long, it was suppressed by a force from the opposite direction, and the violent shaking gradually disappeared, leaving only ferocious cracks on the surface.

That is the power of the gods of Valinor...

Wizards and elves don't need to think of ways to convey news to the gods, as long as they call the name of the gods, the wind and water will transmit everything that happens to Aman Island. Manwe, the head of the Valar, even has a giant eagle as his messenger.

But not many people know that the gods prevented this disaster from becoming more terrible.

The people on the west bank of the Anduin waited in fear in the dark.

There was no attack, and there was no greater disaster. If it weren't for the ruins in front of us, everything would be like a dream.They walked out of the hiding place tremblingly, asking each other and crying.

If the distance is extended to a place as far away as the Misty Mountains, because the impact of the earthquake is limited, more people will fall asleep quickly after being shaken awake without any abnormalities.Even when they wake up the next morning, they may not be able to remember it.

Bilbo Baggins was such a man.

He was wrapped in a felt blanket, with only a small tuft of hair sticking out.

Legolas lowered his bow slowly, and Brother Elaidan across from him made a gesture in the dark, and Legolas nodded, and they left Irohor to keep watch, and walked around the sleeping Bilbo to the hillside talk on the other side.

"Should we continue with the original plan?" Elidan was very convincing when he was not joking, especially like his father, with short and firm sentences, "I don't think Shire can hide the Lord of the Rings. "

The hometown of the hobbits is only remote, and few people on the mainland have heard of it.

No evil has set foot in that fertile land, nor is there any power against it.

"We can't go back."

Legolas looked at the valley in the distance, and then said in a low voice, "The orcs are not far away from us. As long as we cross the Misty Mountains, the power of Mordor will not be so strong."

"To Rivendell, then!" said Elidan.

"If the problem is only the Lord of the Rings, I definitely agree with your choice!" Legolas turned his head, his eyes were particularly bright in the darkness, full of eagerness and worry: "Darkness did not come from Sauron of Mordor, But Morgoth! Bilbo will not hear his name for nothing! We have all felt this unearthly shadow of horror, and we have seen the terrible darkness of the future... That is the warning, Elaidan, evil It's too close to us."

"Morgoth has long been banished by the Valar into nothingness, and he cannot appear." Elidan and Irohor have no differences on important matters, and this is the joint resolution of the two brothers, "Lego Lars, we need to get the news of Morgoth out as soon as possible, just stay temporarily, the Lord of the Rings really cannot stay in the territory of the elves for a long time. If you insist on crossing the Misty Mountains, we go to Rivendell, or we turn to the left, gold Forest Roselorien is not far from here."

"After Bilbo fled into the cave, we got rid of the surveillance of the Glendon crows. Do you think there are no traces of them at the intersection leading to these two places?" Legolas asked.

"Then it's even less safe to send hobbits to the Shire! The destination may be revealed before you set off!"

"So you think it's Redagast who's spying on us?"

Elidan replied immediately: "I would like to believe him, but the brown robe wizard may believe the wrong person."

"You doubt the Holy White Council?" Legolas wondered.

"No... If you haven't forgotten, I heard that there were five wizards who came to Middle-earth, except Saruman the white robe, Gandalf the gray robe, and Redagast the brown robe, but we have never seen any other wizards. You two! I heard that they disappeared after going to the eastern desert! No matter what the situation is, it is not good news for us."

Legolas suddenly lowered his body and listened to the sound of the mountain wall and rocks.

"...I feel that the darkness is closer to us than imagined!"

Elidan was also dizzy for a few seconds, and immediately rushed back to wake Bilbo up: "No, go!"

At the same time, the giant eagles searching for the traces of Bilbo and the elves in the deep mountains were also alarmed. They flew to the towering snow peaks and sent the news to the wizard through loud and clear calls.

Gandalf shook his hand holding the staff, and looked back at Glorfindel: "An abnormal situation has occurred in Moria!"

"I heard that there are not many dwarves living there anymore..."

"There are many strange creatures in the deep caves of the Misty Mountains. They all come from the darkness, and many of them are evil creatures left in the first era. The dwarves were driven out of Moria by something... Although the dwarves still insist on calling There is Khasad-dum, but the elves of the Golden Forest sensed a terrible dark atmosphere, and no one knows what is there, this is already recorded 1000 years ago." The gray-robed wizard was a little dazed with his staff in his hand.

"Gandalf?"

"Ah..." The gray-robed wizard came back to his senses, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have deepened a few layers, "I entered Moria 100 years ago. Although I didn't find anything, it made me not want to enter again. . . . a voice told me to stay away. Perhaps the doom that ruined me came from Moria on Verri's rug."

Glorfindel didn't speak, he closed his eyes as if thinking about something.

Still the Eagle brought no news of the Hobbits.

In the depths of the cave, the bridge of Khasad-dum, and the dark abyss under the endless stairs vibrated.

The magma was boiling, and mithril raw ore was constantly falling on the mountain wall. The ogre was so frightened that it desperately climbed up and hid in a ramp at the bottom of the mine.Gollum took the opportunity to grab them and fled to safety.

The dragon Smaug stared at the Balrog below, ready to roar, but something in distant memory seemed to be rising up.

The Balrog's appearance is pitch black, his mane is burning with raging flames, his eyes shine like lamps in the blackness, and he holds a long whip formed of red flames in his right hand.

The instinct of a dark creature made Smaug feel dangerous, and he flapped his wings to escape.

The Balrog lashed out with a whip, and the giant dragon immediately screamed, its wings twitched, and it fell suddenly.

"The descendant of Glauron, how dare you disobey Melkor! Disobey the order of the darkness... Get down!" The Balrog raised his whip again, but this time suddenly there was an extra hand in front of him.

Fay stopped the Balrog.

The three bloodstains on his face became deeper and deeper, and powerful dark power emanated from him in an endless stream.Not to mention the Balrog, even the Troll's escaping speed suddenly became much faster, and Smaug barely managed to fly up without falling into the magma.

"You want to destroy the last dragon?"

The sound echoed silently in the abyss, and "Fey" was completely different from before.

His figure was like a huge ball of fire, but it didn't emit any light, but swallowed all the light in terror, even the flames of the Balrog and the boiling golden-red magma began to turn dim.

His eyes were cold and terrifying, as if he despised everything except himself.

"Follow your wishes." The Balrog was familiar with this kind of Melko, and was not surprised.

Smaug couldn't see Fay, its wings were too stiff to flap, so it could only lie down on the mountain wall, stick its claws firmly into the crevices of the rocks, trying to escape with difficulty.

[If you fly out of Moria, your flesh and blood will turn to stone... Smaug who loves treasure, for the sake of creation, I allow you to choose between crystal stone and obsidian. ] Smaug was so frightened by the voice in his head that he almost hit the mountain wall.

"You... who are you?" Why did the voice sound familiar.

[Who made you forget my existence. 】

The unlucky dragon is dizzy, it just wants to find a beautiful and spacious house, collect a pile of treasures to make a bed, why suddenly it can't even fly?

"A trap...a ​​dreadful trap!" growled Smaug, looking for Gollum, whom he thought was a deceitful little monster.

"Fey" looked at the dragon with cold eyes:

【Deniing Melko, whether it is your choice or not, is unforgivable!All your kindred are gone, your existence is useless, I will have a better creation, Vila Oka (Balrog), kill it. 】The red flame whip directly shattered the mountain wall.

The Balrog took heavy steps, and the breath of darkness and death spread rapidly from Moria.

Smaug spewed flames incessantly, but to the Balrog, the ignition was almost painless.

Just as the whip was raised high, Smaug, terrified, remembered at last who the voice was.

"Fey?"

"..."

The terrifying darkness shrunk sharply, and the shapes that only Vera and Maya could see began to change, first as blurred outlines, and then as hazy shadows.

【Fey... yes, this is my name, I am...】

The dark shadows that made up the shape continued to expand, as if to form a giant taller than the Balrog, and then immediately collapsed, and then gathered again, and an ordinary person appeared, wearing strange clothes (shirts and jeans).

But the evil and terrifying darkness continued to flow out of the body. First, cracks appeared on the skin, then the arms twisted, and finally collapsed completely, reappearing into a strange black mist without form.

——If you can't confirm yourself with the power of Arda, you can't even exist as a god.

The black mist floated up quickly, as if it was about to be pulled away by something.

At the same moment, Bilbo, who was called up to go on his way, was sleepy and fell to the ground, clutching the golden magic ring in his pocket. He saw what the elves were saying beside him, but he couldn't hear anything.

Rings get heavy.It was so heavy that Bilbo could not stand up.

The hobbit wanted to cry, he felt the danger, that he would be swallowed up by the darkness—

Under the abyss, the Balrog looked at the black mist in bewilderment: "Melko?"

The black mist suddenly stopped, as if getting rid of the invisible traction, a clear shape quickly appeared this time.

Long black hair, fiery red pupils.

【I am Melkor...】

Fay raised his right hand, touched the three bloodstains on his face, and said in great pain: "Leave the dragon, it looks much better than the orc ogre! How on earth did I make such an ugly thing? "
