Journey of the Infinite Wizard

Chapter 530: Human Resentment

There were only twelve of them in total. On a certain night, Finrod led ten guards including Beren, and they quietly left the line of defense. Heading northward along the path, in a wilderness, they once encountered a group of orcs, but they were all easily dealt with. With Finrod's ability, he naturally wouldn't take these half-orcs seriously. Afterwards, they took off the weapons and equipment of the Orcs, put on their armor, disguised themselves as Orcs, and then quietly set off towards the Iron Mountains.

However, the reality is not as smooth as mentioned above. In fact, when they quietly approached the north, Sauron had already noticed their figures. Sauron was standing on the top of the mountain at that time, and when he saw the figures of a group of them, he felt very suspicious, so doubts naturally welled up from the bottom of Sauron's heart. Just because they were in a hurry, they never reported their work to Sauron, because all Morgoth's minions had to report to Sauron. So Sauron sent troops to intercept them, and brought them before him.

Then there was the famous competition between Sauron and Finrod. Finrod and Sauron competed in the power of reciting spells. The power of the Elf King is very powerful. However, the final outcome of the matter, as described in many stories, Sauron gradually took control and he cast the wizard's spell. In this spell was all that the Noldor had done in the past, and it contained such great power that Finrod fell before his black seat.

Sauron ordered people to take off their clothes, so that each of them was naked, which aroused great fear in them. Although they revealed their true colors, Sauron was unable to find out their names and their purpose of coming here. He therefore shut them up in dark and dead dungeons, and threatened to put them to death with the cruelest punishment, unless he could be told the truth. And, every few days they would see a pair of eyes emerge from the darkness, and the werewolves would eat one of their companions, but none would betray their king.

Although Finrod had been active on the battlefield, Sauron had never seen him. Moreover, he would not think of his identity at the level of the Elf King. When he thought about it, this was simply impossible. Which elf king would dare to lead only twelve people into Angband? Therefore, Sauron is still testing them, to see if he can get the answer he wants to know from their different mouths. As a result, no one let go, even if Sauron tried his best, he still couldn't get the news he wanted to know.

At the moment when Sauron put Beren in prison, a great fear fell on Lúthien; In the dungeons on the Isle of Ryan, defiled by Sauron, and renamed the Isle of Cruhuth, "Isle of the Werewolves"), there was no hope of rescue. Lucien could see that there was no one in the world to help him, so she decided to leave Doriath and go to him herself; she went to Daeron for help, but Daeron betrayed her again, and took her Thingol was told of his plans.

Xinge was shocked and frightened when he heard the news. He didn't want to imprison Lucien in a dark place, lest she wither and die (the elf will die due to extreme negative emotions), but he wanted to imprison her, so he ordered A hut was built in a very tall tree so that she could not escape. Not far from the gates of Menegroth grew the tallest tree in the forest of Neldoreth; and throughout the northern half of the kingdom there grew tall beeches.

The chosen giant beech, named Sheri Lorne, has three main trunks, the bark is extremely smooth, and the height does not reach the top; it only begins to branch when it is very high from the ground. The cabin was built among the tall trunks of Sheri Lorne, and there Lúthien was brought; the ladder to the cabin was removed, and the cabin was guarded. No one can get close except Xin Ge who can send servants to send up what she needs.

However, Lucien was always trying to find a way to escape from here. She used magical powers to make her hair grow extremely long, and with these hairs, she wove a robe, which could contain her beauty and turn her into a shadow, and this robe was full of drowsy magic. What was left of her hair she braided into a thick rope, and hung it from the window; and when the tail dangled gently over the heads of the guards under the tree, they all fell into a deep sleep. So Lúthien crept down from the hut where she was held captive, and wrapped in her robe of shadows, she disappeared from Doriath, hidden from all eyes.

At this time, a letter written by Finrod to Jiang Ning when he left was also delivered to Jiang Ning. He opened the envelope, and the contents of the letter described the reasons why Finrod left his own defense line and their destination. When Jiang Ning knew that Finrod and the others were going to Angband, he was extremely surprised, and at the same time, a surge of anger surged into his heart. He was very angry, angry that Finrod had left his post without permission, and even left the most important line of defense, and went to Angband instead. This made him extremely angry, and he quickly called Maedhros to take over Finrod's line of defense.

At the same time, he also called an emergency meeting to gather the elf prince, elf king, dwarf lord, and human lord together for discussion. Familiar with him, the result of the matter was not as smooth as he thought, and the opposition of humans and dwarves was the biggest among them. They are opposed to sending troops, against a war that seems meaningless to them, and even more against letting their people and descendants die in the north because of the relationship of one person. In this regard, they are willing to maintain the status quo and hide safely within the line of defense. This result surprised Jiang Ning, but it made sense after thinking about it carefully, but it was natural for him to pass this level emotionally. So he turned to the elves, to which the elves replied, to rescue them, if only to cover them. Although they were a little unwilling, they still agreed.

As soon as the results of the comparison came out, although everyone didn't show anything on their faces. However, the distinction between the bottom of my heart still came out. The dwarves and humans left one after another with ugly faces, while the elves watched the whole process with cold eyes. Unbeknownst to them, a shadow is lurking in the hearts of dwarves and humans, and it is quietly affecting them. Jiang Ning didn't say much about this, nor did he say anything about the departure of humans and dwarves. Instead, they discussed with the elf princes and elf kings about sending troops to rescue.

But in the hearts of human beings, there is a voice sounding deep in their hearts, "Look, the elves don't trust you at all, they always want to use you as cannon fodder again and again. Seeing their faces Is it? They are very unhappy when you don't help. The next time you humans are in trouble, the elves will not help you, and they will also let you rush to the forefront when there is a war with humans. Although you have many people, this strength is completely incomparable to that of the elves. Yiningweier clearly has a chance to defeat Morgoth, but he is maintaining the existing defense line, the purpose is to consume your human resources Quantity, so that you can continue to follow the lead of the elves and be their subjects. Do your calculations, after you enter the West, are you really free?"

Human beings listen to the voice from the depths of "themselves". They don't know that this is Morgoth's instigation and conspiracy, but they think that this is what they think and want to say in their hearts. Now, after being instructed by this voice, they once again recalled the scene just now. The elves were indifferent to their departure, with no expression on their faces. Throughout the whole process, his face was tense, and he watched them leave indifferently. Human beings began to worry about their future in their hearts. They were worried that this kind of future would continue to appear, and at the same time, they felt a kind of dissatisfaction with Jiang Ning. Well, you can clearly defeat Morgoth and destroy Angband, but you have been building some kind of defense line here, giving Morgoth a chance to recuperate again and again. The original idea is to consume our human population! For the first time, humans resented that tall figure, and hated the elf king who defeated the orcs many times. It turned out that he also wanted to enslave us humans and continue to serve the elves! Anger "sprouts" at this moment and also grows at an extremely fast speed.
