Start with Lord of the Rings

Chapter 2 Bounty Hunter
"I am Gandalf"

Looking at the familiar old man in front of him, Morgan froze as soon as he spoke.

He likes to watch fantasy film and television dramas, and he has watched the movie "The Hobbit Trilogy" and "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy" during his break.

Although not reaching the level of fanatical fans, I still have a certain impression of these two classic fantasy masterpieces.

For the two works, Morgan is even more impressed by the soul figure "Gandalf the Wizard" who runs through the entire Middle-earth world.

Such an image, such a dress.

Morgan had no doubts that he had met the real Gandalf.

After all, he can travel to this world, and he has a more fantastic time traveler system.

There is nothing he can't believe.

At this moment, Morgan thought of many things.

What he is most interested in now is: "What time period is he in Middle-earth now?"

In just a moment, Morgan quickly reacted.

Looking at Gandalf, he said casually: "If you can meet, you are a friend."

"Seeing that you are still on your way so late, you must not have had dinner yet."

"Cut yourself where you want to eat, you're welcome."

Morgan said, throwing his previous meat-cutting dagger to Gandalf, pointing to the dead bear beside him, and added: "By the way, you can call me Morgan."

After receiving the dagger, he took a closer look at Morgan. Seeing Morgan's open and generous face, Gandalf smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite."

As he said that, he put away the cigarette rod, picked up the dagger in his hand and stepped forward to cut the flesh.

Friendships between men are sometimes very simple.

As the true number one hero in the six parts of Middle-earth, Gandalf has a righteous and firm personality, humorous conversation, and a wide range of friends, which can be seen from the fact that his friends are all over the leaders of major forces in Middle-earth.

As for Morgan, he has a thoughtful mind, an open and generous personality, and he intends to befriend Gandalf.

The two sat in front of the fire, eating roasted bear meat, and after a while, they became acquainted with each other.

"Morgan, you look like a ranger?"

Gandalf cut off a large piece of bloody hairy meat from the forelimb arm of the giant bear corpse, inserted sharpened branches, and continued to put it on the fire, talking casually while roasting.

"Ranger."

Hearing Gandalf speak, Morgan froze for a moment.

In fact, he has already thought of an identity for himself, that is, "Bounty Hunter".

Bounty Hunter: A master who obtains expensive bounties by completing difficult tasks entrusted by his employer.

Bounty hunters are somewhat similar to the "ranger" in Gandalf's mouth to a certain extent. The former is rarer and more powerful than the latter.

But the latter is much more famous than the former.

Ordinary residents of Middle-earth can more or less name rangers when they mention rangers.

But very few people know about "bounty hunters".

"Ranger, be it."

"In fact, I prefer another title, "Bounty Hunter"!"

Morgan shook his head and smiled.

"Bounty Hunter?"

Hearing Morgan's words, Gandalf was slightly taken aback, bounty hunters are too rare.

But looking at the gigantic giant bear beside him, which was nearly three meters tall and had just died from the temperature of its blood, Gandalf didn't doubt Morgan's strength at all.

A ferocious giant bear with such a stature is far from being able to be dealt with by ordinary people.

This just proves Morgan's strength.

"That's really uncommon"

Gandalf looked up at Morgan and smiled.

"It's really not common, and I haven't met a peer until now."

That's right, he put the title of bounty hunter from other fantasy film and television dramas on himself, and decided to use this identity to walk the world in the future.

As for whether there are bounty hunters in Middle-earth, he has no doubts.

Because the Ranger in this world is equivalent to a low-profile version of the "Bounty Hunter".

Morgan shook his head and smiled, looked up at Gandalf carefully and asked, "What about you, Gandalf?"

"You look more like a legendary traveling wizard?"

Seeing Morgan's question, Gandalf smiled and said simply: "As you can see, I am a wizard."

"A formal introduction, Gandalf the Wizard"

"Bounty Hunter Morgan."

"Ha ha."

The two chatted very happily, and the topics of conversation gradually increased.

"Morgan, did you come to Shire because of a mission?"

Gandalf continued to gnaw on the roast bear and asked.

Giant bear meat is very expensive in many places because of its soft and tender texture and excellent taste.

However, due to the huge size of giant bears and their extraordinary strength, they are rarely sold in the actual market.

Even if one is caught occasionally, it will soon be bought by the rich local nobles, and it is difficult for ordinary people to buy.

Although there is giant bear meat, ordinary people can't afford it at all.

Now I happened to meet Morgan, a powerful bounty hunter, and such a big and ferocious bear.

Gandalf did intend to eat his fill, his fill.

"This is Charles?"

Now that he knew he was in Middle-earth, Morgan immediately reacted when he heard Gandalf talking about it.

"Will you believe me, Gandalf, if I say that I came to the Shire when I was lost?"

Morgan shook his head and said, his smile was a bit dumbfounding.

"Well, look at your appearance. Of course I believe it!"

Gandalf looked up at Morgan, ate the last bite of the roasted bear in his hand, wiped his mouth full of grease, and said with a smile.

As he spoke, he took out the tobacco rod, filled it with shredded tobacco, and asked Morgan if he wanted to have a sip.

Morgan waved his hand in refusal and smiled too.

He knew he looked a little downcast.

He sold all the loot from the corpses of the two guards in Ferro town, as well as the damaged and inferior armor on their bodies, to buy a horse.

Now he was wearing a short leather armor on his lower body, and an ordinary open-chested linen long sleeve on his upper body, and he tore the cuffs because of the heat.

Now it is equivalent to a short sleeve with two asymmetrical cuffs.

As for the ordinary cross sword and short sword, it was on the original owner's body from the beginning.

Such a desolate appearance is a bit far from the status of a bounty hunter.

"It's been a long time since I took over the task, I'm making you laugh."

Morgan smiled and said, but there was no sign of embarrassment on his face.

"Gandalf, you are a wizard. If you have any good entrusted tasks, remember to introduce them to me."

Morgan continued, with a frank and casual expression.

Gandalf lit the pipe, took a puff, and said after pondering, "Well, I do have one here. Just"

"Is it finally here?"

Morgan was secretly delighted. He had been friends with Gandalf for so long, and all he had been waiting for was this moment, when he received the task from the other party and thus successfully participated in the plot.

So he resolutely launched the talent special skill "Intimacy".

[Intimacy: It can greatly increase the target's favorability towards you in a short period of time. 】

"Morgan, you invite me to eat roasted bear meat, and I will introduce you to a commissioned task, which is a fair trade."

"What's more, that task just needs the participation of a bounty hunter with your strength."

"Well, come with me tomorrow, I guarantee you will receive a very good commission."

Gandalf, who was hesitant at first, suddenly changed his voice, and said with a smile.
