Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

Chapter 152 Unable to Return

bite--

A silver coin was thrown in the air, and Levi reached out to catch it.

Then it was thrown into the air again.

This behavior attracted some sideways glances from passers-by.

But when many people cast their sights on the figure wearing black armor and linen robes, their breathing slowed down. They frowned and tried to remember, but they still didn't understand where that familiar feeling came from. Come.

It wasn't until that person was far away that someone suddenly realized what he was doing.

He took a breath and said: "It's that - that person with many titles, he just passed by!"

"who?"

"It's him."

Bree border.

In the simple Forgotten Inn, as soon as Levi sat down, he was like a big stone, silencing all the discussions in the twos and threes next to him.

This made the inn, which was not crowded, look even more deserted.

Only the innkeeper was still standing in front of the counter, arranging cups very naturally and making some noise.

"I'll have a beer and some barbecue."

Levi ordered.

"Wait a moment."

The boss immediately put down his work and planned to go to the kitchen.

But at this moment, another voice suddenly came in and said: "Bring me a piece of bread, so I don't need a drink..."

Levi turned his head and found a familiar figure.

The man said hello to the boss, sat down opposite Levi, and sighed.

He said:

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"It's been a long time."

Levi took the beer handed by the boss and took a sip first.

"Won't you have a drink?"

"No, for some reason, I'm short of money recently."

"Okay, but this matter is easy to handle. I have made a little fortune recently, so why don't I pay for this meal?"

"A little fortune?"

The person opposite was silent: "If that can be called a little, then nothing in this world can be called a lot."

"It's really quite a lot. Anyway, I can't count how many there are."

Levi shrugged.

"...I always feel like you're showing off."

"But it's really amazing. I didn't expect that you could do so many things in just over two years. When I first heard about it, I thought others were joking with me."

"Anyway, it looks like you're doing pretty well lately."

"It's not bad. Don't talk about me. Let's talk about you. Farodan has been missing for several years. Where have you been?"

Levi asked the boss for two more beers and a piece of barbecue, and said, "I almost thought you had quietly turned into a ghost somewhere."

Hearing this, Farodan was speechless for a while.

"Even if I become a dead soul, I still have to bring you the news, although you may not need it now."

"What news?"

Snap.

Two glasses of beer were brought out and placed in front of the two of them.

Falodan took a sip and felt quite happy.

He replied: "The gold mine you want, and the news from some distant places."

"After listening to your request, I went all the way east, passed through Ithilien, and then south from the Poros River crossing, and successfully sneaked into Umbar."

"It's really not a good place. There are informants everywhere who cannot be named. They worship the existence in the evil black tower and developed the Demon Eye Sect based on his belief."

"I searched for a long time in the war zone between Gondor and Umbar, and finally discovered that there are some mines that can extract precious minerals in the area west of Umbar. However, before I could find out more information, I was suddenly exposed. , the Haradids there discovered that I came from the north, and shouted that they would burn me to ashes.”

"It took me many days to get back to the fighting zone and get out of there with the help of some Gondor rangers."

"To be honest, I don't think it's realistic to go to Harad to find what you want, so I took a break and explored north of Mordor."

"There, besides Dovinian, there is Loen. Have you gone to the place where the Dongyi people live?"

"right."

Two plates of barbecue were served, one of which had an extra piece of bread. Levi took the one without bread and started eating directly.

It’s just that Falodan doesn’t necessarily have such a good appetite. He recalled, staring at the beer in the cup and said:

"I thought Luen would be better at first, but as soon as I walked a little further inside, I was shocked by the situation inside."

"There is turmoil there, a huge turmoil. Farther east, there is a resistance force fighting against Dongyi."

"During the time I was in Loen, the fighting there became more and more intense. Later, in addition to humans, there were also Orcs, Wargs, and the larger troll variant Orog who was not afraid of the sun. "

"The wolf's fur is darker and more evil than those in the northern mountains. It reminds me of the 'demon wolf' in ancient history."

"They are assisting the Dongyi people to launch attacks on certain forces."

Levi frowned as he listened.

Is there so much commotion on Loen's side?

No wonder the borders were blocked and Dovinion's caravan couldn't get in.

However, the resistance?

Levi swallowed the last piece of barbecue and was about to ask when he heard Farodan suddenly say:

"Before the border road was blocked, a strong old man in a blue robe found me and sent me out."

"Before leaving, he said something to me."

"I still haven't been able to figure out the meaning of that sentence." "What?"

Levi perked up.

"He said - he might not be able to go back."

There are those who mourn the inability to return.

Some people have a headache because they cannot give something away.

Glen.

Under the starry sky, Elrond sat at the table, gently picked up the pen and wrote a line of words on the paper:

"To-Levi:"

"Long time no see, my friend, how are you doing?"

"It has been two years since our last goodbye. I have heard many legends about you, and I am very happy about what you have done."

"Have you forgotten that you have a very fast horse here?"

As he wrote this, Elrond sighed.

That horse gave the groom who was responsible for taking care of it quite a headache. Although Levi had said that he didn't need to feed it, when the groom occasionally passed by with a handful of wheat, the horse stared straight at him. No longer as undisciplined as before.

The groom noticed something and immediately handed over the wheat. Sure enough, the dumb horse ate it all in one bite.

Then, it started to get restless, sometimes rubbing against the wall, and sometimes trying to walk out the door.

The groom guessed that it might be suffocated, so he took him to the grass outside to relax. When he got to the grass, the horse seemed to be in a much better mood, and even lowered his head to nibble on the grass from time to time.

He immediately realized that he might have been biased against the horse before. Just because Li Wei said he didn't need to feed it, he treated it as an alien and kept it in a manger.

The elf groom immediately repented and took good care of the horse from then on. Not only did he often take it out for walks, but he also took it to the horses in the valley to try to get it to get along with its kind.

The horses in the valley are all bred through excellent breeding and selection. All of them are good horses with stable emotions and fast running. For this new stranger companion, they did not show rejection, but chose to Accept it, even if it seems a little dull.

Everything seemed to be going in the right direction - until one day, the groom fed the horse a handful of wheat in the pasture.

It immediately became restless and quickly approached other horses that were grazing with their heads down, regardless of whether they were male or female, and...

In order to prevent it from being kicked out by the frightened horse, the elf groom had no choice but to keep it back in the manger.

This incident has made the elf sad to this day. He believes that it was his improper care that caused many abnormalities in the horse.

Since it was a horse entrusted by allies to take care of, Elrond would occasionally pay attention to the situation here (almost once a year).

Then he discovered something unusual about the groom.

While thinking about it, the letter has come to an end.

Although asking Li Wei when he could take the horse away was the main purpose, this main purpose was only mentioned in one or two sentences in the letter.

There are more caring greetings and praises for what Levi has done recently, plus some expressions of missing him and welcoming him to come as a guest at any time. Yougu will definitely treat him warmly.

After writing this, Elrond marked the end of the letter:

"Your friend, Elrond."

After doing this, Elrond waited for a while, letting the evening breeze blow by to dry the ink stains.

At this time, there were footsteps coming from the side.

Elrond turned his head, saw a young man, and smiled at him.

"Estel."

Estel means "hope" in the Elvish language, and it is also the name the elves give to Aragorn.

This young man is Aragorn.

Ever since the Kingdom of Arnor was declared ruined, Elrond has been helping the nomads wandering around. Every leader of the nomads would be raised and taught by Elrond when he was young.

Of course, it's not just about raising and teaching, it's also a kind of protection of the royal bloodline.

At this moment, Aragorn was standing not far away, giving a slight salute to Elrond as a greeting, and then came closer and asked curiously:

"Are you writing a letter to a friend?"

After living here for so long, this was the first time that little Aragorn saw his adoptive father write a letter to someone, and his curiosity couldn't be stopped.

Facing Aragorn's curiosity, Elrond did not hide it. He nodded and said:

"That's a pretty unique guy."

At this time, the writing on the letter paper was dry. While sealing the letter, Elrond told the young Aragorn the story of the Lord of the Roadside Fort and the Legend of the Wilderness (omitted).

He kept talking for a long time, and when Aragorn's mother came to find him, Elrond stopped and sent the mother and son back.

Wow——

While walking, Elrond suddenly stopped and turned his head to the west, looking up at the night sky.

The mother and son noticed something unusual and stopped to look over there along Elrond's line of sight.

But nothing was seen.

"What happened?"

Aragorn's face was full of questions.

Elrond put a hand on his shoulder and said: "Where our eyes cannot see, there is a white beam of light that divides the night sky into two."

"A roadside fort, I guess."

Elrond smiled and continued to send the mother and son back.

The young Aragorn could not calm down for a long time. He was still thinking about this sentence when he was sent back to the room by his mother and lying on the bed.

"Roadside Fort."

"Levi."

In the dark night, Aragorn leaned on a soft pillow, his big eyes blinking, but he never closed them peacefully.

He just stared at the roof, motionless, his mind full of the legend he had just heard.
