[Hobbit+HP] The truth of elves

dragon!

A whole, freshly dead, dragon.

Lucius couldn't believe his ears when he heard it.

It seems that a few days ago, Legolas was still saying that the entrenched dragon made everyone dare not set foot on Erebor again?

Then, Thranduil said now, the dragon was dead and ready to be slaughtered.

When the dwarves set out, no one ever thought they could succeed in slaying dragons.

"It's human, not dwarf." Thranduil explained.

In fact, it doesn't matter to Lucius who the dragon slayer is, the important thing is the dragon itself.

A whole dragon.This means that there are countless high-level potion materials that cannot be filled in the pockets of space expansion, and countless high-level potion materials mean a lot of wealth.

So when Lucius heard the temptation, he had the feeling of being thrown in the air dizzily by the money, and then he agreed to follow the army without thinking much.

Of course, the departure of an entire army is not as straightforward as the words of command.Before that, Lucius should have had plenty of time to realize the subtle differences.But before he could give himself any time to think, he was dragged by other elves to join in the logistical preparations for the army's expedition.

Not to mention other equipment, weapons, and supplies, just the military tents and other accompanying items that Thranduil needed to use had packed a carriage full in the rush.They even brought a gorgeous marching stool to the Elf King!

And until the whole army was dispatched, the steward in charge of this matter, Galian, was still muttering, talking about these things that might have been missed.

This is also the benefit of having no magic to help, whether it is the space expansion spell or the luggage shrinkage spell, it can be of great help.

At least the Dark Lord didn't need a whole carriage to follow him whenever he went out to battle.

In addition, the equipment for a carriage was because Galian had been talking about it, because River Valley City was not far from the kingdom, only two days' walk away.

What if it is a longer-distance battle?

There are too many things that are worth Lucius' speechless rolling of his eyes.

Well, if even the things needed for a camp tent must be fully loaded in a carriage.

Lucius estimated that the dragon in Middle-earth could not be smaller than the carriage.

If Thranduil had brought him there to dismember the dragon, wouldn't scattered material be better transported than a whole dragon's carcass?

Unfortunately, by the time Lucius realized this problem, he was already sitting in the carriage that escorted Thranduil's tent, and was about to leave the range of the Woodland Kingdom.

There is another question, since the dragons are dead, does it take thousands of elves to decompose and transport a dragon?

How could a dead dragon need an elf to pose for war?

The elf warrior in golden armor had a more dignified and stern air than usual.Because the time of departure was almost evening, when the army marched halfway, night had completely fallen.But in the middle of the night, no matter whether it was the neatness of the formation or the mental state of all the soldiers, there was no difference from when they first set off.

Even Thranduil, who was sitting on his big horned deer, was wearing silver armor.Lucius had seen it close up when he was packing the luggage for the Elf King, and the weight of the armor was by no means what he could bear now.

Behind Lucius is the endless elf army.Except for the carriage he was riding in, which followed Thranduil closely, there were three other carriages, which were loaded with the logistics supplies needed by the elf army and the supplies that Thranduil was going to send to the humans in Long Lake Town.Every carriage was followed by ten full-time logistics elves, and these elves, who were mostly female, also couldn't bear the weight of the golden armor.However, they still wore soft armor for body protection.

In the entire team, Lucius was probably the only one not wearing any armor.

Sighing deeply, Lucius looked up at the back of Thranduil in front of him.

Why on earth did Thranduil insist that he follow the army?In the mind of the Elf King, Lucius probably can neither participate in the battle nor be good at the logistics of the elves, right?

Could it be that he simply wanted Lucius to travel with him?

Like the countless elf warriors behind him, Thranduil's silver back was the most conspicuous in Lucius' vision.

This is a proud king.

He was also a king who made all his subjects proud.

A king who can't help but surrender.

Lucius didn't feel offended if Thranduil's purpose was really pure and willful.It's just a pity.Finally, a faint admiration for the Elf King arose, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Even the elf prince couldn't help but want to escape from this majestic shelter, let alone Lucius who thought he was middle-aged from the beginning to the end?

He doesn't want to hide behind anyone's back at all.

What really belongs to him can only be his own strength.

Lucius rarely stepped out of the shadow of his woodland kingdom to observe the sky above the forest.But even so, he could detect the commotion that was spreading in the sky at this time.

The crow had been following them shortly after they set out.In addition, birds of various colors flew from time to time in the higher sky.

"That's a group of crows, they are very excited." The serious atmosphere of the march didn't affect Thranduil too much, he would occasionally look back at Lucius' reaction, and even like now, he took the initiative to speak, "Because they think the war will If you follow us, you will be able to get enough food."

"The same with the birds?" Lucius asked.

"Almost all winged creatures are in commotion. Don't underestimate them. They probably take over half of the world's information transmission system. As long as you pay attention to their whereabouts, you can predict the creatures we will meet." Seran The Duy snorted softly, and his words were full of disdain, "This should be the last time we hear about Thorin Oakenshield. If he stays here and continues to be my guest, he may be able to save his life. Instead of being involved in this hurricane like now, what else can be the result except to be smashed to pieces?"

"The legend of the wealth of the city under the mountain will not be forgotten after many years, and it is just around the corner." The Elf King added in a low voice again, with a stronger sense of ridicule in his mouth.

"Isn't our purpose different from theirs?" From the fact that Thranduil directly brought the supplies to be sent to Long Lake Town, at least this elf king was not bloodthirsty.And as he himself said, the desert created by the dragon Smaug will usher in great excitement and storms.He mocked the greed of those people, but he himself made the same choice.If the older elf didn't have the downside of being arrogant, there was clearly something else to it.

"Pure white gem, our star stone. It originally belonged to our elves." Thranduil was probably a little angry because of Lucius' questioning tone, but he did not refuse to answer, "Those cursed Wealth has no attraction for me, and it doesn’t matter how much they want. But what belongs to me must be taken back. No one can stop it.”

So, that's why Thranduil still sent an army of five thousand against only thirteen dwarves.

Faced with various situations that arise, Lucius simply proceeds from what he currently understands.It's not that he is short-sighted, it's just that he lacks the necessary understanding of the world.Therefore, whether it is the wine trade with the humans in Long Lake Town, the decision to wipe out the giant spiders, or the decision to send troops, Thranduil's decision has a profound meaning far beyond Lucius' expectations.

The Elven King has proved his strategy for this kingdom and this world with practical actions time and time again.

"When the war is over, I will ask them to transport the dragon's corpse back to the kingdom. Before that, didn't you always want to challenge the position and responsibilities of a warrior?" Naturally, Thranduy couldn't learn from Lucius' disguise. It was almost perfect to see what he was thinking, so this time, he once again surprised Lucius, "Then this battle should be the best class. Just use your own eyes Have a good experience of the world that an elf warrior will face."

******

"Hadien, go to Changhu Town and get Legolas back. Check the situation of those humans and see if you need to transfer another batch of emergency supplies to them." When he was in position, Thranduy called a guard beside him.

"Yes, Your Majesty." After Hadeen responded, he realized that Thranduil seemed to have finished speaking, so he asked again, "What about Tauriel?"

The name succeeded in making the Elven King frown.

"Deportation."

Lucius didn't know what Thranduil was thinking before he gave such a cold order.Hardion would obviously be faithful to convey his meaning, but wouldn't that have the exact opposite effect on Legolas?

Was he too confident, or did he have other intentions?

"Your Majesty, can I go with Hadien?" Since it was uncertain, Lucius naturally did not intend to intervene in the conflict between the father and son on his own initiative.However, he just had other plans.

"What are you going to do?" Thranduy asked dissatisfied with a cold face.

"If you'll admit it, I think I'm good at dealing with humans." Lucius replied unhurriedly, and it's not hard to find reasons to convince the Elf King, "And I want to take a preliminary look at the situation of that dragon. .After your battle in River Valley City is over, the situation may change with the passage of time. The dragon's blood is the most magical material, but it is also the easiest to lose."

Long Lake Town will not be in any danger, and Thranduy will not worry about Lucius' safety, so this should be the most likely opportunity for him to win.

"Go, come back early." Sure enough, the development here finally went as Lucius wished.

Ha Dien welcomed Lucius' colleagues, and the two fast horses rushed directly to Long Lake Town.
