Wu Chen first went to the dwarf player's forging workshop and ordered a spare animal saddle for the team out of python skin.He also casually inquired about Thranduil's information.It seems that the closest relationship with the Elven King of Mirkwood is the tavern in Long Lake Town.

Because all the fine wine of the Elf King is transported to Mirkwood from here.When Thorin first met the marksman Bard by the river, Bard was actually waiting for an empty wine barrel to float down the river from the Hall of the Elf King.I just didn't expect that there were dwarves in the barrel.

So Wu Chen and others rushed to Changhu Town without stopping.

The half-elf moored and disembarked outside the sluice, and Wu Chen walked into Changhu Town by stepping on the short road temporarily laid by the players along the decks of sailboats.

There is also a fee for pedestrians to enter.Wu Chen was too lazy to argue with them, and signaled Ophelia to pay the fee for the four of them.

The tavern is easy to find, but the road is too difficult.There are too many pedestrians.And many of them are players, and more are middle-earth mercenaries hired by players.Wu Chen also saw the figure of the mighty Beidi Dengdan ranger.

Similarly, Demon Lord Sauron must have gathered a large number of dark players.

When the tavern is full, players are called players if they don't go clubbing?

Although 0326 is very popular, there are not many people who have actually seen Wu Chen.Coupled with the deliberately camouflaged appearance of Zhuang Zhuang, Wu Chen, who was mixed in the crowd, was not conspicuous.And the three female companions were also covered by long cloaks, which did not cause unnecessary trouble.

Walking to the bar, Wu Chen ordered a pint (about 568ml) of ale for everyone, occupied a corner, and sipped it carefully.

After refilling the cup three times, Wu Chen finally asked, "Boss, I heard that you are very familiar with the elves of Mirkwood."

"That depends on what you want to know." The boss is indeed a genius.

Wu Chen quietly pressed a gold coin and pushed it to the boss with his fingertips.

The boss put the rag into his palm calmly, and his smile became more enthusiastic: "What do you need? A pass to the dense forest, or an audience with the Elf King?"

"I want to meet the Elf King." Wu Chen lowered his voice.

"Everyone wants to see the Elf King..." The boss gave Wu Chen a meaningful look, beckoned him to wait, then turned around and greeted the drinkers on the other side.Busy and busy, the boss didn't return to Wu Chen's side until he fell asleep drunk and everyone was slightly tipsy.

"Outlander, I have a difficult matter. If you can help me solve it, I think the Elf King will be happy to see you."

"Tell me." Wu Chen is very, very familiar with the conversations started in this way.

This is a sign of NPC rough hidden quests Wow!

"As you can see, the wine purchased by the Elf King is not produced locally. It is shipped from all over Middle-earth, and finally gathered in Long Lake Town, and then I send someone to the Elf King's Hall. Among them, the best wine of the Elf King , was sent by a kindred in the south. It was a city near the easternmost mouth of the River Run: Dorwinion. There is a bend in the river, and it is the best grape growing place in Middle-earth. The wines used in Thranduil's royal banquets are all obtained from there."

"Dovinian..." Wu Chen heaved a sigh of relief.Unknowingly, the world view has expanded again...

"That's right, Dowinian." The tavern owner stared at Wu Chen's face expectantly, "How about it, outsider, if you'd like to run for me, I'd be more than happy to open the door of the Elf King for you. The door of the great hall."

"Boss, how many people have you sent this task to?" Wu Chen asked with a smile.

"Honestly, there are a few, but they all refused decently. They would rather huddle in the town with nothing to do all day, than let the lonely mountain out of sight." The tavern owner said meaningfully.

"Understood." Everyone came for the main plot, but they wanted to do an insignificant branch and go to the east of the Inner Sea of ​​Rune. This was obviously not what the players wanted.

"So, would you like to run for me?"

Wu Chen smiled and nodded, "No problem."

Whether it is a novel or a movie, there are not many descriptions about the runes, and there are only glimpses in the Lord of the Rings movies.Second only to the opening scene of The Lord of the Rings 1, the two-second flash of Jill Galad, the last supreme king of Middle-earth, and the image of the elves accepting the shipbuilder Cirdan in the middle of the Three Rings of the Elf.

Remember the humans that Frodo and Sam saw when they passed the black gate under the leadership of Gollum in Lord of the Rings 2?Sam accidentally rolled down the hillside, and two spearmen walked over to check.Although wearing a helmet, the exposed eyes and nostrils clearly show that they are human beings rather than ugly half-orcs.

Those are the Easterlings/Runes living in the east of Mordor (the transliteration of Easterlings, generally called Chariot People, and the free translation should be called 'Oriental').

Rhun means East in Sindarin.Residents here are collectively referred to as "Orientals" and include many ethnic groups.The residents here have been in perennial conflict with Gondor and the Romanian Kingdom (Gondor's allies, extinct). In history, many Gondor kings were killed by the Runes.

Rune is located in the far northeast of Gondor, on the common middle-earth map, at the eastern edge of the map.But in fact, because the story of the Lord of the Rings only happened in the northwest corner of Middle-earth, and according to the author, there is still a vast land east of Rune, so Rune is actually located in the center of Middle-earth.

The destination Wu Chen is going to is Dovinian on the west coast of the Inner Sea of ​​Rune, a fertile land that produces the best wine in Middle-earth.

The Runnites fought against the ancestors of the Rohanites before.During the Holy War of the Lord of the Rings, they honored the demon Lord Sauron as the "incarnation of the dragon god" they believed in, and joined Sauron's dark army, and together with the orcs from Gundaba Mountain, they attacked the elves and dwarves in the dark forest in the north of Middle Earth. and Glacier Valley.Of course, in the end, no good results were obtained because of Sauron's destruction.

But it is undeniable that the runes are very powerful, and they defeated the northern humans and dwarves in the third-line battle in the Holy War of the Ring.

During the Holy War of the Lord of the Rings, the result of the northern battlefield that was not described in the movie was: the Northern Legion of Rune wiped out the main force of the dwarves in the valley and the lonely mountain at the cost of 1 casualties. ***En? Ironfoot II was killed, Mirkwood, Lorien, Rivendell, and the free folk of Eriador were fully mobilized. Mordor's stronghold in the southern Mirkwood, Dol Guldur, once again faced Lorien. Launch an attack, and the situation is stalemate.

But at this time, there was no obstacle between Dol Guldur and the Rune Northern Legion. If Sauron did not fail in advance, it is estimated that Mirkwood would face Mordor and the Rune coalition directly in a month at most, with more than 4 people.

As a result, Mirkwood will eventually fall, and the army of the Rune North will cross the forest, cross the Anduin River, and attack Rohan.Then he will attack Gondor's army of Mordor from north to south, completely destroying the human kingdom.There are many chain reactions in this. For example, in order to protect themselves, Rohan's [-] cavalry cannot rush to the rescue of Gondor, and they are likely to be wiped out in a head-on collision with Rune's heavy dragonriders; Help, the fall of Gondor will happen before Aragorn recruits the undead army, followed by the massacre that the orcs love to see...

The faction of Rune has a strong shadow of the Central Asian nomadic dynasty, with scaled heavy cavalry, a tribal social system, and an army composed mainly of nomadic cavalry archers.It is somewhat similar to the combination of Persia and Mongolia. Its leader is also called "Khan", and it also has a standing army and a large city.The Rune army has a complete range of arms, including light-armed Viria rangers (cavalry archers), rune dragoons (noble knights) with both horses and horses in heavy armor, and excellent tribal heavy infantry and heavy archers.And slavery.

Although it is Sauron's servant country, the owner of the tavern in Changhu Town got Wu Chen an unimpeded passage.

That's the beauty of business.

Obviously, at the level of merchants, Long Lake Town and Iron Hills maintained a prosperous trade relationship with Dorwinian by virtue of the convenient waterways of the River Run and the Red River.

The task Wu Chen accepted was very general.

Although the tavern owner only asked him to go to Dowinian for an errand, Wu Chen knew very well that he could only complete the task if he transported the best wine from Middle-earth back to Changhu Town.

The River Run, just like her name, flows eastward and never returns, and flows into the Inner Sea of ​​Rune.

The journey downriver seemed simpler than the journey upriver to Long Lake.It was still the half-elf's boat, carrying Wu Chen and others again and set sail from Changhu Town.The only difference is that there are five demon wolves following closely in the dense bushes on the shore.

After the river passes through the Mirkwood and the mountains, there is no obstacle.

The boat sailed very fast. Although it was almost "returning thousands of miles of Winnian in one day", it only took two days to arrive at the intersection of the Red Water River and the Running River.These two rivers, one originating from the Lonely Mountain and the other originating from the Iron Hills, meander and flow, converging into a roaring river in East Romanian, and finally pouring into the Inner Sea of ​​Rune.

On the Middle Earth map of the third era, the Inner Sea of ​​Rune, which looks very east, is actually a border land that is too westward in the eyes of the Rune people.As mentioned earlier, the east of the Inner Sea of ​​Loon is the center of Middle-earth.

On the east coast of the Inner Sea of ​​Rune, there is a vast forest, which should be an important stronghold of the Avari elves.

The Avari elves, from the Silmarillion, the three great clans of elves accepted the advice of the gods and moved westward across the sea to Aman Island, the blessed land. However, many elves refused to move westward, so people moved westward across the sea. They are collectively referred to as Eldar elves, and those who refuse to move westward are called Avari elves.

The elves staying in Dorwinian are the Avari elves.

After entering the mouth of the Loon Inland Sea, the number of ships began to increase.And most of them are the elf ships of Melixin.Wu Chen even felt that the entire inner sea of ​​Rune was dominated by elves.On the side close to Loon, there is a vast forest, and Dovinian is blocked on the west coast by a big river and an inland sea.The rune dragoons were beyond reach.

Of course, it is said that the secret agreement between the elf patriarch and Rune Khan is also an important basis for ensuring peace in Dovinian.

As for the content of the agreement, Wu Chen couldn't understand what price the elves had paid.

Relying on the identity certificate issued by Changhu Town, Wu Chen easily passed the inspection of the patrol boat and sailed into the bustling Dowinian Harbor.
