Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

"The Brandybucks were always weird."

In a casual chat, Bilbo mentioned Frodo's mother's family to Levi.

"This is inevitable."

Bilbo's neighbor, the two-legged daddy who lives at No. 2 Baoxia Road, heard Bilbo say this when passing by, and also joined in:

"After all, their family lives in the weirdest part of the Brandywine River, the area closest to the old woods. There is something wrong with that forest. It is dark and bad, and there are strange movements from time to time. Who knows if their family has been affected by something? Things are affected.”

"Mr. Drogo Baggins is a decent and honorable hobbit, but I really don't understand how anyone in the Baggins family of Hobbiton could go so far away to find a wife."

"But their young man Frodo is very polite. The best children I have ever seen are like him."

"Well... that's not surprising. After all, his father is from the Baggins family."

The two-legged daddy muttered and walked away.

"It seems that your family's reputation is pretty good." Levi teased Bilbo.

Bilbo just shrugged.

"You know, all hobbits like a stable life."

"And our Baggins family is almost synonymous with 'following the rules', which is appreciated by many people and makes my ancestors highly respected."

"Yeah--"

A gentle voice broke in at an inappropriate time.

The old man in gray robe stood in front of the two of them with a cane, not very politely blocking the sun, and said to Bilbo:

"But from what I've seen, there's a Baggins hobbit who's full of adventure."

"There are exceptions to everything, and you're late, Gandalf!"

Bilbo stood up immediately, and although his tone was full of complaints, his actions were honest and he hugged Gandalf.

"Forgive me, Bilbo, I was delayed for two days by some trivial matters, otherwise I would never have missed your birthday."

He looked at Levi and said: "Well... I really regret this. I guess there must be a lot of delicious food at the banquet."

Gandalf grinned widely and said with a smile:

"Long time no see, Levi."

"Long time no see, Gandalf."

Levi responded to his old friend's greeting.

The two patted each other on the shoulders and made a meeting ceremony that was considered quite intimate among elves.

"You've changed a lot."

Almost at the first glance, Gandalf noticed something different, mainly in temperament.

He sighed softly, smiled suddenly, and said, "Look at it, Levi, you have to go through some things."

"I've always been very open-minded."

"It better be this way."

Without further delving into this sentence, Gandalf turned to look at Bilbo and continued the topic just now:

"I don't think you are an exception, Bilbo."

"As I told you before, your grandfather Galenius Tuke, old Tuke, was a man full of adventurous spirit. When the White Wolf invaded the Shire, the Brandydeer family sounded the mobilization horn, he They were the first to respond. Together with other hobbits who came to support, they drove out the beasts and maintained peace in the Shire."

When this was mentioned, Gandalf couldn't help but sigh:

"My old friend...Old Tuke, we have been living in harmony for more than a hundred years since we met. Every time he organizes a midsummer party, I will go to it - with the fireworks I carefully prepared."

"Once, I gave him a pair of magic diamond buttons as a gift. I can still remember his joy at that time. He said that it was an important day in his life."

"But now the buttons have been buried with him in the grave."

Having said this, Gandalf smiled again. There was neither sadness nor heaviness in his words, only the nostalgia for old friends - the quiet nostalgia for that beautiful friendship that lasted for hundreds of years.

"Oh, of course I know. My grandfather, Galenius Took, was the oldest hobbit in recorded history. He was 130 years old. I can't even think about it."

"That's not necessarily true..." Gandalf looked at Bilbo and said meaningfully.

"What?"

"I mean, you have forgotten one thing. Old Tuke also has the record of having the most children."

"I know this too." Bilbo nodded.

Listening to the chat between the two, the corners of Levi's mouth raised slightly, feeling that the sun was particularly warm today.

Bilbo is a wonderful hobbit, perhaps indeed related to his ancestral kinship. He possesses both the comfortable optimism of the Baggins family and the courage and adventurous spirit of the Took family.

It was precisely because of this that Old Gandalf was able to successfully abduct him out of the Shire.

This old man is so evil.

After chatting for a while, the three of them entered the house together. As the owner, Bilbo enthusiastically boiled water for tea and found some snacks.

Taking advantage of this gap, Gandalf talked to Levi about what he had seen during this time.

This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!

"I saw the mark you left in Moria, and the campfire."

"Oh, so you went inside to explore?"

"Indeed, it was very quiet there. I walked for a long time without encountering anything, not even a bat."

After a short pause, Gandalf continued: "The dwarves have some ideas about that place. Last year, Balin asked me about the situation in Moria. I told him about my experiences and observations, and then he asked me if now is a good opportunity to regain our homeland."

"What did you say?"

Gandalf shook his head slightly and said: "My suggestion is - don't go for the time being, wait a little longer."

"Why?" Levi asked curiously.

"There is a feeling that I can't explain."

Recalling the situation inside Moria, Gandalf's brows unconsciously frowned slightly.

"I feel there is a hidden evil force there. Maybe the dwarves can indeed successfully retake their homeland, but it will not last long. It will probably be another tragedy."

"Your feeling is right."

Levi answered very confidently: "Perhaps most of the orcs and other things entrenched in it have been eliminated, but there is still a Balrog missing. I have been looking for it for several times but have not seen any trace of it."

"I guess it may have returned to the depths of the earth and fell asleep."

"But in any case, it must not have left there. Many years ago, Lady Galadriel and I worked together to stop its footsteps in the mountains. As long as 'Nenya', one of the three rings of the elves, has not lost its power, it will not be able to step out of the mountains."

"I have heard about this." Gandalf nodded.

Nenya has the power to understand, create and protect. The Golden Forest can always maintain its vitality and vitality because of this ring.

If it loses the protection of 'Nenya', the forest will wither soon, and the elves in the Golden Forest will also lose their home.

That is why Lady Galadriel would not go too far from the Golden Forest unless necessary.

"Fortunately, Balin was quite rational. He only complained a few words at the time, but still chose to listen to my advice."

Gandalf was obviously quite optimistic about Balin, the think tank among the dwarves.

No wonder they had a good relationship. Such a calm and thoughtful dwarf would indeed get along well with the wizard.
