[Hobbit+HP] The truth of elves

Thranduil's tenderness has never been so directly exposed to Lucius' eyes.

He knew that Thranduil, who had been used to forbearance for thousands of years, would never make any decisions based on impulsive emotions.

The many deep meanings and thoughts behind this sentence deeply touched the defense line in Lucius' heart, almost occupying all of his consciousness.

However, the interpretation of the subtext of the Elf King's statement by other elves is obviously different.

Elrond focused more on the safety of Thranduil itself, and giving up the journey to the west was equivalent to dying in his opinion.

However, he also knew that there were various other complicated reasons for Thranduil's refusal to travel to the west.

For this, he did not need to know any reason, but he had already begun to feel a deep regret.

For Legolas, the subsequent impact of this sentence obviously has a stronger impact.

But at the same time, facing his authoritative father, he did not have the ability to comment on the former's decision.

In the eyes of the elf prince, various emotions such as astonishment, disbelief, anxiety and fear intertwined: "Is there... is there no other way but Xidu?"

"The curse is not a simple dark corrosion." Elrond frowned and thought, and he came to his conclusion naturally, "The more complicated its specific action process is, the more difficult it is to remove it. This one is So. If you can’t solve it from itself, you can only consider affecting the source of its generation. If the curse can continue to exist without the survival of its caster, it can only show that its existence itself has already utilized higher than The ability of the caster's own level. As for the source of power higher than this black dragon, I have no way to make a second guess."

"Higher than the black dragon? That refers to a higher level of dark power, Sauron?" Hadion, who had already experienced it, immediately reacted.

"Yes, it can be said to be Sauron, and at the same time, it can also be said to be..." Elrond paused, showing a helpless look, "Rules."

"Since it is a rule, we can only fight against it with beings of at least the same level as it." Elrond then shook his head, "Even Vera may not be able to easily erase the power of another Ainu." Traces of power."

"But..." Hardy asked unacceptably, "Lucius once had a solution, didn't he, the medicine you used for His Majesty..."

"No matter how effective the medicine to lift the curse is, it is generally based on the power hypothesis I mentioned at the beginning. I think that if Lucius' method is still effective, after returning to Romania for so long, He should have tried it." Elrond said regretfully.

The content of the conversation evokes the memory picture of Lucius.He recalled the several times he had had conversations with Thranduil about this curse, and he also remembered the mentality he had spent in these many back and forth.

If Thranduil did not speculate with Elrond until today that the source of the curse's power is the rules, then his negative attitude towards the treatment Lucius tried before may really be just because he was unwilling to urge the latter.

But Thranduy's statement hinted at another possibility.

When he learned that Xidu was the only way to fight against the rules, it was an unreasonable speculation to impulsively choose to give up without hesitation in the choice just because of Lucius.

It is more likely that Thranduil already knew more than Elrond, and after knowing and deliberating, he decided to give up the only solution of Xidu.

If even a wise man like Elrond needed Nigelhold's case this time to deduce the existence of the rules, why could Thranduil be sure that his injury was unsolvable before so many clues appeared?

Obviously, whether it is about his curse or his refusal to travel to the west, there are still more inside stories that the Elf King is unwilling to express.

Lucius didn't think so much at first, and only regarded Thranduil's never urging himself to find a solution to try as contempt and tolerance.

And if Thranduil really had silently shouldered more unknown things from the very beginning, then his indifference could not be regarded as a kind of contempt.

However, Lucius knew very well that Thranduil still underestimated him and the ability of a wizard after all.

"Indeed," Lucius was still immersed in Thranduil's tenderness, and his distracted eyesight hadn't focused yet, but when Legolas and Hadion were full of frustration, his voice sounded out of nowhere , "It's not completely impossible."

"any solution?"

"really?"

The exclamation of the woodland elves caused the two elf lords to show expressions of astonishment at the same time.

"As His Excellency Elrond said, to unravel a curse, if there is no way to do something about the curse itself, we will choose to try to cut off its source. And when there is nothing to do at the source, we You can also choose to consider affecting the ending of this curse." Lucius' erratic voice landed with his own gradually gathering sight, and the intensity became clearer.

"Curse is a kind of harm, but at the same time it is also a method. The driving cost of power is energy, so similarly, rules can be used if there is enough price in exchange."

"It's unrealistic." Elrond frowned.

"What is it?" Legolas couldn't wait to ask, "What kind of price do you need?"

Thranduy held Lucius's hand tightly, and said in a cold voice, "That's enough, don't talk about it."

It was not the first time that Lucius mentioned this solution, but the last time, the person who heard it was the Elf King who was in the stage of relapse of his injury.

Under the same context, it doesn't take much effort for the latter to think of the method Lucius once said.

The Elven King's tone already contained some accusations, Lucius shrugged knowingly, and did not continue.

But Lucius is not the only elf who is completely focused on the elf king, and there is also an elf who has not caught the meaning of the wizard's words.

The elf prince who had always been hesitant under his father's majesty said without hesitation: "What method is that, Lucius? No matter what it is, I will definitely..."

"Enough is enough, Legolas." Thranduy glared at his son.

"The driving price of rules is often something that we are not willing to pay. I am afraid that if it were you, it would be a scene that your father would rather die than see." Lucius hooked the corner of his mouth, When Thranduy was eager to stop his son, he said, "Since the purpose of this curse is to take life, the price of being able to change its rules is also life. In the face of rules, the price of this life is actually nothing." Specifically, if this can be considered a loophole."

"Lucius!"

"However, what you said is only theoretically feasible." Elrond's voice immediately became another one that weakened Thranduil's deterrence.

"Since the rules can be used, it means they can be interpreted." Lucius did not take this opportunity to end the topic.

"If it is an unspecified life, it means that it can be replaced, but the rules cannot be fooled." Elrond immediately denied it.

"If it is a sacrifice that satisfies him, why does the devil refuse to trade?" Lucius snorted coldly, "Even if the rules are not conscious, they will not lose their greedy nature."

"Since the rules have no consciousness, the 'satisfied sacrifice' is actually an impossible condition to be satisfied."

"Of course, that won't be something that can be achieved without conditions." Lucius said, bringing out the real limiting conditions, "As long as it is voluntary, souls with the same life intensity, as far as the rules are concerned, there is no There is a hint of perfunctory."

Elrond frowned when he heard the words, and there was a strong disapproval between his expression and action: "That does not constitute an argument for practice."

"How do you know?" Lucius straightened his back, escaped Thranduil's restraint, but showed a palpitating pride in his eyes, "I haven't practiced it?"

The warm palm covered Lucius' eyes, blocking further "discussion" between him and Lord Rivendell: "There is no need to bring up this topic, Lucius. The method you mentioned is not necessary." It's not within the scope of our discussions." Thranduy's voice sounded close to his ear, showing some helplessness.

"I don't need any sacrifice of life, no matter whether this method is feasible or not. I will not travel westward, and neither does the Woodland Kingdom. Legolas, take the army back to the kingdom tonight." Finished, Thranduy also solemnly stared at Lucius, who was the most uncontrolled, and asked for a guarantee with his eyes, until he saw the latter shrugged his shoulders, clearly expressing his obedience.

"Your Majesty, you and Lucius have only just recovered, why are you in such a hurry to let the army leave?" Hadien asked in disapproval, "At least keep your imperial guards, and ensure your safety."

On the other side, Elrond, who didn't say much just now, seemed a little hesitant to speak at this moment.

However, as Thranduil and Lucius fell silent one after another, the embarrassment of the atmosphere made neither the elf prince nor Lord Rivendell try to speak again.

Now that Thranduil had already made the decision to withdraw the troops, the elf guards could only turn around and go out to make arrangements as instructed.

Soon, only the Elf King and Lucius were left in the tent.

After guarding Lucius for several days in a row, and then going through a very exhausting conversation, even Thranduil could not help showing fatigue.

Lucius actually wanted to ask more details about the curse, but he couldn't bear to speak at this time.In contrast, although he was in a coma for a few days, he recovered by accident, and his condition was better than that of the Elf King.

"If you plan to go back tomorrow, I'll go and dispose of the dragon's body now." Lucius hesitated for a while, and finally chose to temporarily put aside his doubts.

However, Thranduil stopped him from getting up from the bed.

Gentle palms brushed against Lucius' cheeks and eyes again, and Thranduy looked at Lucius, who was looking at him again, and sighed: "You shouldn't have mentioned that sacrifice method."

Lucius was stunned for a moment, and then caught a trace of worry for him in Thranduil's eyes without much blame.

"There is no way to sacrifice, and you also rejected Xidu." Lucius also sighed, and finally drew a teasing smile, "So you are wholeheartedly planning to let me go before I collapse and explode due to the conflict of power. To die? If you are going to let me witness your death, why do you care if I still retain my original magic power?"

The author has something to say: It has been updated, but I am sorry that Chapter 2 cannot be updated.The update time of the next chapter is not completely sure yet.

However, the previously established flag has not changed. Yuanyuan plans to complete the text before 2018.6.30:24 on June 200, [-], and the planned chapter progress should be more than [-] chapters.

Sincerely,

Thank you for your landmine rewards~ I added a little bit of starlight to Yuanyuan's bumpy coding career!
