Chapter 159 is about to fall
Lin Yu and his party finally left the underground world they had experienced hardships - the Moria Mine. When they walked out of the mountain and saw the first ray of sunshine in the afternoon, they were filled with excitement. After all, spending four full days underground was not a pleasant experience for any humanoid creature except the dwarves. Before that, Lin Yu had also dealt with other matters. He raised his head and closed his eyes slightly, feeling the breath of the wind, then pointed to the southeast and said softly: "The Supreme Ring is in that direction, about fifty kilometers away from here..."
"How did you know that?" they asked in amazement, "and it's so accurate."
"It's nothing serious. I just made a mark when I was holding the ring." Lin Yu replied with a smile. "That direction... leads to Rosemerlin." Elf Prince Legolas suddenly said, "Why would he want to go there? Queen Galadriel of Rosemerlin is the most powerful Elf King in history. Even Lord Sauron dare not look down on her. If that guy goes there with the One Ring, isn't he walking into a trap? He can't hide from the Queen's 'Elf Eyes'."
Everyone fell into deep thought, but Lin Yu suddenly said, "Is it possible that Rose Menglin was also attacked by dwarves?" When everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Yu, they saw him pointing his finger into the distance. Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw a ray of fire rising in the sky.
Lin Yu continued: "Judging from the number of spirit souls floating there... I think... the legendary Dream Forest is about to fall..."
Rosemary, one of the three holy cities of the elves, is as famous as Rivendell in the Forest Valley and Sunset Harbor in the East Sea. It is also the largest gathering place for the elves. In terms of the long history, the other two elven cities cannot be compared with it. It is recognized as the oldest birthplace of the elves.
In stark contrast to Rivendell, which is full of artificial traces, Rosemary Forest perfectly demonstrates the nature of the elves, who are close to nature. It is almost impossible to find any traces of stone buildings here. All the rooms, halls, and even the paths and corridors are built with the help of the magical power of natural magic to promote the natural growth of plants. The rooms here are like flowers and fruits, "growing" on the towering World Tree, and connected to the ground through spiral staircase corridors.
The crowns of the ancient world trees are connected to each other, almost completely blocking the sky. The elven city under the tree can only rely on the magical "fluorescent flowers" that are like street lamps for lighting. The moonlight-like brilliance fills this originally quiet, dim, elegant and peaceful elven city. Walking in it is like stepping into a dreamlike dream. This must be the origin of the name of Rose Dream Forest "Dream Forest".
However, at this moment, the city is very different from the legendary Dream Forest. The previous "peace and tranquility" has been completely replaced by "dead silence and loneliness".
If you climb to the top of the world tree, you can clearly see that the core area of Rosemeng Forest, "Kairas Galadon", is the center of the circle, where hundreds of the oldest and largest world trees are located. It is protected by an extremely thin but flexible colorful light shield. Outside the light shield, it has been completely destroyed by the terrible war. The originally vast Rosemeng Forest has become a scorched earth, just like the primeval forest that has been divided into the "new development zone" in the real world. The huge figures of heavy logging robots and dwarf steam tanks can be seen everywhere. Groups of silent but fierce-eyed dwarf warriors gathered in groups, cut down trees nearby, lit a blazing bonfire, grilled the so-called "game", and quietly enjoyed their "feast". However, these "game", in addition to traditional forest specialties such as wild deer, rabbits, and pheasants, also include many slender biological limbs that resemble human body structures. Judging from the exquisite green clothes and weapons such as bows and arrows beside the campfire, it is not difficult to guess the true origin of these "game".
It was incredible. Although there had always been a feud between the dwarves and the elves, both sides were civilized races after all. Such brutal and perverted behavior would only happen in the armies of orcs and orcs in the past, but now it happened here. It was not difficult to imagine how much the dwarves had changed under Saruman's transformation.
As the group continued to move forward in the direction of Rosemary, they saw wildfires burning everywhere and corpses lying everywhere. Flocks of crows stood on the charred branches, tilting their heads and staring at the corpses lying on the ground or the living people passing by with their scarlet eyes. Wild dogs excitedly tore and fought over the bones that belonged to humans, dwarves, or elves. Fragments of armor and weapons were scattered all over the ground, and almost every piece was stained with black blood.
"The battlefield... is really a good place..." Lin Yu looked intoxicated and comfortable, as if he was enjoying this unique atmosphere. However, the face of the Elf Prince Legolas was full of anger. However, after all, everyone was still in the same team, and Lin Yu was not the culprit of this incident, so he suppressed his anger and did not flare up.
Along the way, they encountered several patrols of Saruman's army. Most of them were "modern" armed dwarf warriors, and of course there were a few Terminators. These forces seemed insignificant in front of the Lord of the Rings Expedition, and they were easily wiped out without leaving a single one. However, their whereabouts were inevitably completely exposed. The reason was that those Terminators were transformed by Saruman using black magic and had the ability to transmit messages remotely.
As they continued to go deeper into Rosemeng Forest, the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood and burnt smells. The originally beautiful forest scenery had been completely destroyed, replaced by a desolate and miserable scene.
"These dwarves are nothing but demons," Legolas said through gnashing teeth. "How could they do such a thing to the Elves?"
Lin Yu smiled slightly and said, "This is the cruelty of war. Under the influence of Saruman, the dwarves have lost their original reason and kindness."
The large-scale force responsible for besieging and blocking the Lord of the Rings Expedition finally appeared in everyone's sight like a tide.
A mixed team of about 500 people quietly surrounded the members of the Fellowship of the Ring.
