Chapter 1146 1128. Vitality
“Pure and vigorous vitality.”
The demon hunter murmured, and with El Cat’s confused face, he reached out and took back his own Alchemy leather bag and started to take something out of it.
The faces of the three dwarves on the ground were pale, their pupils looked dull due to uncontrollable dilation, their mouths were moving but they were too weak to make any sound.
Lan En looked at them and finally took out a square object from the alchemy leather bag.
It was a package wrapped in large green leaves.
After visiting Tom Bombadil's home, Old Tom gave them cookies made by his wife Goldberry.
This is pure and strong vitality!
"'Destiny will not realize itself'. Ha!"
The strong little old man with a red beard extending under the blue hat seemed to flash before the demon hunter's eyes again.
He chuckled lightly and immediately opened the large package of leaves, revealing the biscuits inside.
The sun shines down from the sky, perhaps due to reflection, and there is a golden shimmer on the biscuit.
The sweet smell of biscuits still tastes like freshly baked ones to this day.
The biscuits made by Mrs. Goldberry are a bit like compressed rations, thick and large in one piece.
Lan carefully opened it, divided it into three pieces, and stuffed it into the mouths of Thorin, Kili, and Fili.
Almost as soon as they entered the mouth, Lan En's [spiritual vision] clearly saw in his wide-open eyes that a pure and strong life force began to faint from their bodies.
The lack of body fluids, various other substances, and the collapse of the physiological system caused by the lack of these substances.
The various substances listed by name alone can fill several large sheets of parchment, but with such strong vitality, they are no longer a problem.
Thorin, Fili, and Kili, who were already in a dying state, suddenly took a deep breath almost at the same time.
“Suck~”*3
It's like the soul has returned to the body and needs to take a breath to activate.
“Well done, well done! Lan En!”
Fili’s re-condensed pupils first looked at the sky blankly, and then he raised his head towards the witcher with great effort. , giving a thumbs up.
"Yeah, good job. But...ah! Can you give me a drink before you sew my chest up with needle and thread?"
The remnants of Kili's body are still there He was writhing in pain, with a grin on his face, but he was too sensible to dare to move his newly sewn chest, so he looked particularly strange.
Lan En, who was half-kneeling on the ground to observe them, breathed a sigh of relief. Now he finally leaned back and sat on the ice, lowering his head and smiling.
The flannel ball jumped up and meowed happily.
Qilin no longer stood in front of others, and everyone gathered around with joyful expressions.
Dwalin immediately lay on top of Thorin, who was still confused, and cried loudly.
The elves looked on with smiles, they could empathize with this scene and offered their blessings.
Gandalf relaxed his shoulders, which had been tense since the war began, and even had his pipe in his mouth again.
He walked to Lan En: "This is really wonderful technology, especially for saving lives."
He clicked the pipe twice and then blew out a puff of white smoke, and the white smoke became It turned into smoke rings floating into the sky.
"There is nothing more wonderful than saving a good life, isn't it?"
"Yes, the great and wise Gandalf." Lan En, sitting on the ice, tilted his head Glancing at him, "By the way, how do you think I got involved in these things? Do you have a clue?"
The old wizard's expression didn't change at all, which really made Lan En admire him.
He said calmly and confidently: "It must be Manifest Destiny."
For this old wizard who became full of ghosts and ghosts once he was out of the emergency and serious state. , Lan En has nothing to do.
On the dwarf side, Thorin, who gradually came back to his senses, showed a toughness far beyond that of his two nephews.
He stood up with difficulty with the help of Dwalin and walked towards Lan En.
The King Under the Mountain stopped in front of the witcher, his face now covered in blood and his lips white. But there was no gloominess in his eyes, instead they were extremely free and easy.
The two looked at each other silently. After a long time, Lan En shook his head and smiled.
He took out a gem from his arms. It was an extremely bright gem that even the elves were obsessed with.
Then he turned his wrist and threw it to Thorin without any hesitation.
"Arken Gem!"
Dwalin admired the name of the gem in a low voice.
Thorin, who was being supported by him, the King of the Lonely Mountain who was crazy about this gem a day ago, now just reached out his hand to catch the dwarf's treasure from mid-air, symbolizing The king's gem of power.
"I delivered the goods ahead of schedule, but you won't break your promise again, right, King under the Mountain?"
The witcher said with a joking smile.
Thorin did not answer him, but casually handed the gem to Dvalin beside him for safekeeping.
"If there was no gold in this world, we would have been heroes long ago." As he said that, he also showed a weak but relieved smile to Lan En and Gandalf next to him.
——
The victory of the war was no longer in suspense after the arrival of the big eagle and the skin-changer Bion.
Beorn, the skin-changer, is the man who jumped off the back of the eagle and turned into a giant bear in mid-air.
This guy looked fierce, but he turned out to be quite gentle in contact. If Lan En described it, he looked a bit like a bear that focused on licking honey and accumulating fat.
The war lasted all day, although the decisive battles ended in the morning. But after the orcs were defeated, these vicious and vicious killers fled in all directions.
The elves, dwarves, and humans all pursued the orcs.
Victory in a battle is gratifying, but in comparison, the biggest and most important benefit is to eliminate the enemy's effective strength through victory.
“They will flee into Mirkwood or other corners of the wasteland. But it doesn’t matter, the dwarves and elves will entertain these guys well. This victory will bring peace to the north for decades, even hundreds of years. situation.”
As night drew near, Gandalf spoke to Lan, smoking his pipe.
"Nothing is more precious than peace. Isn't this what fighting bravely is for?"
At this time they had entered the lonely mountain. After all, almost the entire plain outside the mountain was beaten during the day. Rotten.
The giant earth-devouring insects turned the terrain into a mess, and the dirty blood and corpses of the orcs were spread across the entire land.
In order not to die in the cold night, the dwarves of Lonely Mountain welcomed humans and elves into the mountain.
No precautions or wariness, let everyone rest here and hold a celebration banquet.
Gandalf and Lan took a break from their busy schedule and took shelter in an opening in Mount Elbor.
At that time, the fire of the evil dragon in Gushan was reflected from these huge openings, and could be seen even as far away as Changhu Town.
According to Gandalf, Azog, with the authorization of Sauron, united almost two-thirds of the orcs in the north to form an army and marched to the Lonely Mountain.
But now the whole army was defeated, one-third of the troops died on the spot, and even his own life was lost.
This is self-evident for the changes in the situation in the north.
After the victory was determined on the battlefield, the big eagle left as quickly as they came.
Thorin retained them in the end, and at least gave them to the leader of the eagles, the Wind King Guan He, a luxurious crown.
And declared that the Lonely Mountain Dwarves will always be the allies of the Great Eagles.
But in fact, the eagles came to the Lonely Mountain battlefield this time partly because of their hostile stance towards evil, and partly because of Gandalf's personal relationship.
Because Lan En saw many big eagles and the Wind King Guan He deliberately reminiscing with Gandalf when they were flying away.
Bilbo also told him that Gandalf once called a group of great eagles, allowing their expedition team to escape a wave of orcs on the edge of the cliff.
“I saw Guan He glanced towards me when he was leaving to talk to you.”
Putting his palms on the strong and rough wall fence of the dwarves, the witcher He asked Gandalf next to him with interest.
“Is it talking about something relevant to me?”
At this time, one of Gandalf's hands was bandaged, which showed that he was not relaxed during the day. But even so, after the old wizard relaxed, he smoked his pipe non-stop to relax himself.
The old wizard who was blowing out smoke rings just now stuffed a bunch of pipe grass into the pipe pot again, and the tip of his finger wearing a ring ignited a big flame, stretched out Put it in the pipe pot and light it.
"Oh, you mean this?"
Smoke curled up from the corner of Gandalf's mouth, but it was quickly stretched and blown away by the refreshing cold wind of the snow-capped mountains.
The old wizard looked at the witcher with a smile on his lips.
"The Great Eagle is the king of Arda, the messenger of Manwë, the great Valar. Guanhe told me that your swordsmanship was greatly appreciated by a lord, especially the time you killed Smaug on the Long Lake."
“An adult?” Lan En was confused.
"[Lord of the Waters] Ulmo." The old wizard opened his mouth and spit out an obviously very big name, which made Ben Lan stunned.
According to Lan En's previous borrowing in Rivendell, this name represents one of the Valar, the Lord of Water in the world of Arda.
But then, Gandalf said nonchalantly.
"But you don't need to care about anything. The great Ulmo is bold and resolute. He is just expressing his appreciation for you, nothing more. In fact, when Guan He said it to me, he couldn't be sure that it was Ulmo's time. Sentiment is still a message that needs to be conveyed by a messenger. Just to be safe, it was told to me."
Lan En shrugged and decided to ignore the topic.
But I have to say that my water-like swordsmanship, which was born out of [Wei Mingren], has been recognized by a master of water, which satisfies some of Lan En's small complacency.
It was a starry night, and the gentle moonlight shone together with the starlight, shining on the wasteland and the long lake system in the distance.
The scattered ice floes on the ice make the reflection of light even more dreamy.
The clouds in the sky are silhouetted by the moonlight, making the world and wasteland appear vast and boundless.
"What a beautiful world."
Lan En relaxed his shoulders and placed his elbows on the dwarf's guardrail. The hot breath of his sigh drifted away in the cold wind.
