[Hobbit+HP] The truth of elves

Lucius looked at Saruman like a fool, without any panic.

This time the enemy was too stupid for him to even bother.

It was Thranduil that Sauron let him leave Dol Guldur.

If Lucius is nowhere to be found, Thranduil must be the last person Sauron will relax his surveillance.

As long as the Elven King has a little more control over the situation than Saruman, he will never do such a thing himself.

If Thranduil really did such a stupid thing, it would be more intolerable to Lucius than cheating.

However, although he thought this way in his heart, Lucius couldn't really wait for the "things" around him to figure it out by himself.

"If it is said that I betrayed, I know who I betrayed." Lucius said, "Not to mention that my 'confirmation' trip was only an act authorized by His Majesty the Demon King. With Duy's own situation, it is impossible for him to appear in the northern part of Rohan. I think this is a fact that His Majesty the Demon Lord knows all too well. In any case, appear outside any Romanian or elf territory. If he still wants to retain a little spare power to protect his beloved elves."

Facing Lucius' banter, Saruman immediately remembered this matter. He also remembered that Galadriel had mentioned the fact that the existence of Lucius would increase Thranduil's burden, and: "Yes You healed his wounds for him and gave him the ability to leave."

Lucius didn't expect that Saruman, who is called a "wise man", would have such a childish performance of talking nonsense just to slander him when his brain got hot, and he laughed even more disdainfully.

"Why are you laughing..." Saruman was about to reprimand angrily, but was interrupted by a voice he dared not disobey.

"It can't be Thranduil." Sauron watched Saruman, Angmar, and Lucius go back and forth to attack each other for a long time, and finally condescended to say, "No one can break the rules and stay behind." Not even the Valar. The cowardly King of the Elves never left his sanctuary."

Sauron finally spoke, which means that Lucius has successfully passed the test of appearing in Dol Guldur and can gain a firm foothold.But the information accidentally revealed in that person's words made his heart tighten.

However, he kept himself from revealing any of his thoughts, and just used the opportunity to cast a contemptuous glance at Saruman to suppress all his restless thoughts.

"Who is that?" Angmar asked, "We must lock the enemy's whereabouts in order to remove the obstacles he created."

"If Lord Saruman is sure that it is not Elrond, then it can only be Legolas, the elf prince." Lucius speculated flatly, "After River Valley City, he has been Within the Woodland Kingdom, there is no departure."

"That's because of you!" Saruman immediately accused, "And you came here to be complacent about playing such a role for yourself!"

"My sincerity doesn't need to be criticized by you, just like I never lie about things I don't understand." Lucius frowned coldly at Saruman's entanglement, "I have always been very clear about my role."

"Your investment is meaningless to the current battle situation." Angmar said immediately.

"Your existence is also meaningless to the world that His Majesty the Demon Lord will have in the future." Lucius retorted bluntly, "Of course I don't have to come, but there are some things that only I can say. And, if it weren't for your previous If I fail, I should be even more useless."

Seeing that Angmar was about to jump in anger, Lucius turned to Sauron, "Your Majesty the Demon Monarch, as you said before, I know very well what I can do for you. Whether it is the future or the present. "

"I'm listening." Sauron said lightly, the second sentence Lucius heard today.

This statement leaves room for the performance he wants.

Lucius didn't look at the reactions of Saruman and Angmar: "I don't know your arrangements for this world, but I can guess some from the news I got. I don't know what to do about the Supreme Lord of the Rings." How to deal with it, but I know some details that you need to take into account. I know what kind of situation we need to face in the future," Lucius used several repeated parallels in a row, not implicitly reminding Sauron of his own value , and finally threw out the conclusion, "I can gather humans for you and form another expeditionary army that can be used to great effect."

"What expeditionary force?" Angmar interrupted again, "Our army is enough."

"Assemble human beings?" Saruman also echoed, "That's superfluous."

"I don't know His Majesty the Demon Lord, but have you ever heard of what kind of world I came from?" Lucius asked.

Sauron didn't respond, and Lucius continued on his own: "Perhaps, in this world, under this situation, gathering human believers is just unnecessary. They don't have firm beliefs, and they don't have strong fighting power. However, After all, they are human beings. In the world I came from, most of them are only human beings, and there are many human beings, far more than this world.”

Lucius was sure that this was a problem that Sauron had never imagined.

Sure enough, Sauron spoke again: "How many?"

"60 billion, my Majesty the Demon Lord."

Thanks to Muggle fertility, of course, Lucius thought.

Then he added: "If we go back shortly after I leave, that's the amount for now."

"One hundred thousand, one million, one hundred million after ten million, six billion?" A ring spirit who didn't speak much couldn't help but muttered, "So many!"

When everyone was shocked by this number, Lucius added: "That world is wider than this."

If it's just to exterminate this world, Lucius really can't help much, but if he wants to conquer the previous world, Sauron must need him.This is the biggest reliance for Lucius to come to Dol Guldur by himself.

This is not a gamble, it is a gamble on how much "sincerity" Sauron has for invading a new world.

It's a risk, but it's also an opportunity.

No matter where he is, Lucius has never been a character who is willing to give in sincerely.

Since those self-righteous souls in this world want to drag him to "end", of course Lucius must return with sincerity and "enthusiasm".

Lucius forcibly blocked the possibility of the opponents speaking with facts that could not be refuted.

He is very satisfied with the result.

In the dead silence, Sauron finally spoke again: "I don't like proud servants."

"I'm not arrogant, and I don't have that qualification in front of you. But if I want to show my true value, I must first win the corresponding respect and recognition. Otherwise, there is no corresponding basis, no matter how strong I am Can't perform."

"Are you going to make a condition with me?" Sauron said coldly.

Lucius said calmly: "Of course not, otherwise I wouldn't have presented the ring from the very beginning. I don't have much bargaining chips."

"Why, you don't ask for anything in return this time?"

"Different relationships naturally have different coping modes." Lucius replied, "Last time I came for trade, but this time I came for service."

"So, how do you want to serve me?" Sauron continued to ask.

Lucius raised his eyebrows and looked at Saruman and Angmar, who were already nervous, and said, "I want to be the lord of Dol Guldur."

******

Sauron's projection left very satisfied, although it could not be seen from his already completely blurred shadow.

And Lucius also got his wish and got the control of Dol Guldur hand-picked.

There is no formal handover ceremony here, but no amount of material is worth Sauron's words.

After Sauron left, everyone in Dol Guldur failed to recover quickly.

Neither Saruman nor the Ringwraiths guessed that Lucius would dare to demand control of a place when he appeared at this time, let alone the half-orcs who could only submissively in front of them.

Lucius had his own plan in mind, so he still stood there.

Saruman, who had recovered, was terrified.It seemed that he didn't lose anything today, and Sauron's reprimand to him was also interrupted by the appearance of Lucius.Only he can continue to follow up on the matter of the Supreme Lord of the Rings.

But Lucius' method made him no longer have the idea of ​​contempt.

He had never underestimated any elf lord, but Lucius gave him a completely different feeling from those elves.

This is fear.

After Saruman left without a sound, Angmar came to his senses and gave Lucius a hard look.

That is hatred.

Dol Guldur has been under Angmar's control since its reconstruction.

However, a mere area of ​​the ruins of the old city is far from what he once controlled in case of the kingdom.

He himself despised a small place like Dol Guldur, but he never thought that an elf would appear and take away the so-called control.

The ring spirits will still stay here, waiting to attack, and intercept and kill the Supreme Lord of the Rings holder who left Rivendell.

Angmar hesitated for a long time, whether to directly attack Lucius.

Just when he was hesitating, Lucius glanced over.

"Why don't you draw your sword, Angmar...the Witch King?" Lucius turned around, "I'm looking forward to it."

"Let's go." Angmar stopped before erupting, and suddenly sneered at Lucius in protest, and then led several other ring spirits who had gathered to hide.

All of a sudden, the half-orc leader who was still hesitating at first seemed to get some signal, turned around and walked cleanly through the dilapidated gaps in the old palace.

No one welcomes, and no one should.

Angmar told all the orcs running errands in the hall to leave, just to make Lucius fail at the first step.

Lucius raised his eyebrows, never showing disdain for such tricks.

He lifted his foot and walked step by step to the commanding height of the hall.

Behind the location where Sauron's projection is located is the tower window standing on the upper floors of the core area of ​​the ruins.

Lucius glanced at the top of the palace in the distance, which was exactly the same as the palace of the Elven King, through the grid that had already destroyed the minor, and then turned to the dark creature with a figure squirming in the gap below, with dangerous eyes and a bright smile.
