[Hobbit+HP] The truth of elves

Chapter 24 The Wizard's Smile

When Lucius approached, he found that Bud was standing on a high place outside, holding the old stone fence with smoky traces on his hands, overlooking the human camp below.

There are also many human wounded, but they don't have much sadness on their faces for the rest of their lives after two catastrophes.Perhaps the human beings who gather around the fire to keep warm and enjoy this hard-won peaceful night cannot guess the worries of the human leaders at this time.

"Do you have any plans for your future life?" Lucius looked at those faces and couldn't help sympathizing with Bud.

"Our number is small, and if we want to survive this winter safely, River Valley City is more suitable than Long Lake Town." Bard explained with a sigh, "Although it is not a wise decision to repeat the life of being dependent on dwarves. But I have no A better choice."

Lucius looked at those people who made the other party extremely worried, and nodded silently.

Elves have always disliked mixing things with other races, so it is impossible to accept a human tribe as their own subsidiary.Since the fall of Erebor, the deal between Thranduil and Long Lake Town has been one of the few supports for human beings.

That's why Thranduil brought supplies to Bard and the others later, which Bard has always been very grateful to and remembered in his heart.

Lucius didn't take the initiative to bring up the topic again, but Bud, like him, wanted to know the details: "Do you know the casualties of the elves?"

"It was 3000 when we sent out, and it was [-] when we went back, but there are only more than [-] left alive." While this number made Thranduil sad, it still made Lucius brood.Although there were less than [-] victims, more than [-] fell on the way back to River Valley City.But in the tactics he commanded, hundreds of elves were still not spared.

The shocking number made Bud subconsciously tighten his left five fingers again.

"Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you yet." Bard forced a smile, "The defense you organized also protected our people."

Lucius just shook his head and said nothing.

"The dwarves returned to us the property that belonged to Girion, and the humans also received a fourteenth of the gold and silver donated by Bilbo. But the dwarves only promised to return the moonstones of the elves. Those riches are too much, and we do not We need all of them. But His Majesty Thranduil doesn’t accept the other gold and silver I want to give him.” Bard lowered his head as he said, “We wouldn’t even be able to survive this time without the first batch of food and medicine sent by the elves. The war happened."

"It sounds like the dwarves don't intend to ease the relationship with the elves." Seeing that Bard took the initiative to provoke the topic of war profit distribution, Lucius spoke in a sighing tone after considering his tone.

"It has nothing to do with the relationship." Bard quickly shook his head, "As long as money is involved, the dwarves' stinginess will only be developed to the extreme. Thorin is an excellent warrior and a king who makes the dwarves proud. But he really can't What a nice neighbor."

Speaking of the name Thorin, Lucius was completely annoyed.

Using a few spells that I know and a bottle of potion that I would never drink, although it is precious, I saved a dwarf king who was about to affect Jinshan.No matter from which angle you look at it, Lucius feels that he has made a good deal.

Of course, he just regarded this matter as a trivial matter like making a deal.

When he returned to Thranduil, Lucius simply ignored this small business.

What he thought at the time was that if the dwarf king and the dwarves around him could have anything to do with the adjective normal, they should take this into consideration in the process of distributing wealth, right?

What's more, from the perspective of the interests of the elves, Lucius deliberately exaggerated the price he paid for saving people.Lest his own ease make the dwarf take his efforts for granted.

Accustomed to Thranduil's "venomous tongue", Lucius was careless for a while, and mistakenly underestimated Thranduil's objective evaluation of dwarves.

Knowing that dwarves are such a virtue, Lucius regretted that he didn't add another curse at that time.

Facts have proved that planning for a rainy day is a common principle in any world.

Although Lucius was gnashing his teeth in his heart, and had already brewed countless plans to get justice from the dwarves in his mind, he didn't show it on his face.

He even lowered his chin slightly again.And this action successfully made the guilt and guilt on Bud's face a little more.

Noticing the slight change in the person he was talking to, Lucius continued to lower his head and sighed seriously: "Your Majesty should also know that dwarves are unreasonable, so he just didn't care about it. Compared to spending time on being stubborn He would have preferred to rush back to the kingdom to attend the mourning of the fallen."

Now that the dwarves had nothing to do for the time being, Lucius was not going to ignore a certain fact about humans.

It's true that Bard is an ally of the elves, but can a simple set of emerald necklaces be worth the efforts of the elves?

From a businessman's point of view, the initial batch of aid should have cost more than this.

At that time, human beings were so poor that there was no need to waste energy thinking about this issue.

But the situation is different now, isn't it?How much is a fourteenth of Erebor's gold and silver worth?From the perspective of the efficiency of goods circulation in this world, it should already be an unimaginable wealth.

Considering Bud's good attitude and the fact that human beings are the race he likes the most, Lucius decided to give up the simple and rude way of directly squeezing the opponent's body.

After all, he couldn't make any decisions for Thranduil at will, but he didn't need to hesitate to make some preparations for the future and add some trouble to the dwarves.

"By the way, there is one thing I want to ask for your permission." Lucius, who had cleared his mind, showed a embarrassed expression in a blink of an eye, and hesitated to speak.

"You say, no matter what it is, I will do my best!" The real human leader nodded immediately.

"It's about..." Lucius paused subtly, watching Bud open his mouth and then suddenly pursed his lips.When the other party was about to ask more questions, he continued, "About the dragon you killed."

"Smaug?" Bud asked in surprise, as expected by Lucius, very surprised.

"The dragon's body is still sinking in the Long Lake. Will you go back to live there in the future?" Lucius started politely, then skipped the point lightly, and returned the topic to human beings. body.

"The resting place of the evil dragon, the cursed place stained with blood will probably make all human beings fear it." As a dragon slayer who has gradually become famous on the road, Bud is referring to his own He was not complacent about his achievements. "All our survivors have come to Changhu Town. We may not consider going back in a short time. After all, the ruins of Changhu Town can't provide us with enough protection."

"Although River Valley City is more solid and reliable, after all, Long Lake Town still has the farmland that you have relied on for many years. Moreover, Long Lake is also the junction of the spheres of influence of the dwarves and the woodland kingdom. Believe in the reconstruction of the dwarf kingdom of Erebor Will attract a lot of migrants, traders, Long Lake is a key hub. Even if you don't plan to rebuild a city there, perhaps a small town that acts as a rest stop for travelers and merchants would be a good idea Choose." Lucius still lacks a lot of common knowledge about Middle-earth, but he is not unfamiliar with the map and distribution of forces in Middle-earth.Naturally, there were not only books in Thranduil's study.

"This is indeed..." Bud first frowned because of the huge amount of information in Lucius' long sentence, but when he sorted out his thoughts, he looked at Lucius in shock, "You... ..."

"His Majesty Thranduil was injured by dragon flames many years ago when he was fighting against a giant dragon, and I happen to know some ways to help him deal with the sequelae of the injury. The only thing is that the core materials needed can only be obtained from giant dragons." Get it from the dragon." Lucius showed sincerity, ignoring Bard's surprise, and sincerely said the request he had just kept, "As a dragon slayer, the dragon's corpse should be your trophy. If you can , I hope to obtain your consent to obtain some dragon blood from it as a medicine."

"If it can help His Majesty Thranduil, you can take it all. The dragon's body is of no value to me, not to mention that the black iron arrows have been used up. I have no way to do anything with its body. "Bud's agreement came without any difficulty, and he even began to worry about the problems that would be encountered in the execution for Lucius, "It is difficult to salvage it, but it is also feasible. It's just how... uh... get it Come and get what you want?"

"This is not a problem for me." Lucius showed his face, trying to make his smile look a little smug within the scope of not being exaggerated, "If you let us salvage it, the elves will probably rebuild your long hair for you." Lake Town cleared the biggest site obstacle. After this winter, you can build your new town directly where you want. I even think you can go to Galion and get more help from the elves. I think His Majesty Thranduil has always been very friendly to you."

After speaking, Lucius winked at Bud.

Bud's reaction was a half-beat slow before he gradually opened his mouth in surprise. After a long time of deliberation, he held back a question: "Why do you think so much about human beings..."

"I think you will be able to keep this secret for me..." After whispering softly and taking a deep breath, Lucius returned to calm and looked at the human camp ahead.It wasn't until the corners of his slowly raised mouth burst into a bright smile mixed with nostalgia and yearning that Lucius said in a long sigh, "I'm an elf now, but I used to be a human. I..."

The cool moon in the clear night sky added a bit of innocence to Lucius' delicate face, which caused Bud to lose his mind. After a seemingly awkward pause, he looked at Bud again, and spoke again. Shifting to a more tactful tone: "I hope you are doing the best."

Seeing that Bard had completely fallen into a dull expression, Lucius ended with an infinitely gentle smile before turning back.Then he silently added another sentence in his heart: by the way, it would be even better if he could choke the lifeline of the dwarves and piss them off.
