[The Hobbit Lord of the Rings] Gamble

Gritting his teeth, he turned around.

He had already lost his wife, and he could no longer let his daughter die.

"Ada!"

Seeing his father intending to leave, Antar suddenly made a sound.This call made Ashley's heart tremble instantly, and the pupils of his wide-open eyes shrank slightly.

she……

Never called his father in Elvish.

He knew, he always knew that she hated him in her heart, hated him extremely.

He hated him for not meeting them for more than ten years, hated her for giving up their life and death for the sake of her tribe.

She hates him.

"Ada..." The red eyes were so heartbreaking, she took Ashley's hand, and the tears dripped on the back of his hand, burning the skin like a flame.

so painful.

"Ada...it really hurts, it really hurts to watch loved ones die..."

Ashley said nothing, but grew paler.

Elrond looked at Ashley trembling all over, frowned, pulled his herald away, and patted his shoulder.

Antar's hand was still in the air, there was a moment of silence, and finally he cried.

Elrond didn't like it either.

In the end, Ashley had his own reasons for not choosing to save his wife and daughter.

He is a kind and kind ruler, an elf, but all kindness comes from his own stability.

How can he help others if he himself is threatened?

There were a lot of things he wanted to say, but thinking of this, he couldn't say anything in the end, and just patted her on the shoulder.

"You hurt a little, and he will hurt a lot."

This is the father.

Elrond gave Haldir a wink, turned and walked out.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Haldir thought it was better to let the young couple deal with it by themselves, so he shook his head and followed.

Outside the tent, no matter how much Ashley endured, he finally shed tears.

"My lord." He choked up, "I always thought I was the bravest and best fighter in Rivendell, and I was always proud that I had saved so many lives."

It wasn't until now that I realized that I was actually so cowardly and so incompetent in my bones.

I didn't have the courage to bear the possible notoriety, and I couldn't obey my emotions.

Elrond never saw Ashley cry.

Even in the war that caused him to lose his wife thousands of years ago, he didn't have too much emotion.

How can you not care.

Keep going forward because you dare not look back.

When Elrond recovered from the memories, the Elf King was also staring at the crystal bottle in a daze.

Military uniforms, tents, everything is very similar to the 400-year-old Battle of Gundaba.

But now there are only two of them left.

Suddenly, Elrond remembered a very serious matter, and quickly called the Elven King back to his senses, "I said, why are you beating the dwarves this time?"

Hearing this, the Elf King put the crystal bottle in his hand on the table.

"I want to get my stuff back."

White gemstone necklace.

unique.

It was the only thing left of Antal, besides Legolas.

It was her last breath, his last memory.

Elrond didn't know what was in his mouth, but seeing his unkind expression, he decided not to ask any more questions.He combed his hair with his fingers, and walked to the door of the tent.

At this time, the elves and people were busy preparing for tomorrow's battle. Lindir and Galian were standing guard at the door, muttering something in a low voice. When they saw the black-haired lord, they fell silent for a moment.

This move aroused Elrond's suspicion even more.

What are these two doing together?

Lin Dier twitched for a while in the eyes of his lord, and whispered.

"Galian said that the prince might follow Tauriel to find the dwarves...how can I tell the Elf King..."

The black-haired lord was taken aback for a moment, and immediately turned back.

Why is this kid so bearish! ?

Elrond actually felt sorry for the two children. After all, he couldn't escape the death of Legolas' mother and Tauriel's father.So he thought, if Thranduil is not willing to send someone to find them, then go by himself.

So when he saw that the Elven King didn't respond to his words, he sighed and walked towards the door.

However, there was a swish.

"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight." Thranduil suddenly drew his knife, blocking Elrond's path, and there was no emotion in his words, "Since it is the path he chose, then Let him go."

The black-haired lord who didn't expect him to draw a knife was startled by the blade, and when he looked up, he saw the back of the Elf King Jingli.

Still straight back and stiff body, even the face has not been left by the years.

However, the vicissitudes and loneliness cannot be concealed anyway.

Suddenly, he remembered the words he had said to Antal.

Yes.

If you hurt a little, he will hurt a lot.

This is the father.

Final battle

In the end, Elrond did not go to the two children.

When he walked out of the Elf King's camp, it was already nightfall, the sky was full of stars, and it seemed that the weather would definitely be fine tomorrow.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't experienced such a large-scale battle for a long time, and he actually suffered from insomnia.

Just as he was looking up and counting the stars in boredom, Gandalf also came and sat down beside him, his face still full of worry.

"Lord Elrond, we really need the help of the Elven King," he said, still holding his pipe in his hand. "This army of orcs is so great that neither dwarves nor humans can resist it."

Elrond didn't look at him, he was still looking at the sky, and he spoke after a while, "I don't think he will make a move, and I guess it's useless to persuade him."

Gandalf choked on the smoke and coughed non-stop.

Elrond made a fan with his hands in disgust, and fanned away the smoke, "Also, don't mention Antar in front of him in the future."

Don't say that the Elf King doesn't like to hear it, and he doesn't like to hear it either.

Gandalf obviously sensed that the black-haired lord was in a bad mood at the moment, so he nodded tactfully, and stopped talking, just sat beside him and watched the sky with him

Sighing slightly, Elrond also stopped talking.

The bright moon hangs high, the moonlight is bright, but cold.

The Battle of Gundaba also took place on such a starry night.

This was the Elf King's decision, and it was also a decision made in extreme desperation.

Before the war, the two rulers were at odds for the first time since they met.

Elrond, who was tormented by his wife's wailing, made an unusual decision for the first time. He made a request for the elf king's decision to go out this time. If the rescue fails or Antal is really corrupted by darkness, then she must die.

That doesn't say anything about how selfish he is, and for the vast majority of elves, it's a perfectly reasonable request.Even when he proposed it, he was worried for a moment, for fear of angering the Elf King and causing internal strife.

After all, his great-grandfather and grandmother died in the massacre of relatives.

But Thranduil is not worthy of his title of "greatest elf king".His character and his emotions do not affect his consideration and judgment of the overall situation.

This is the difference between him and his father. No matter how strong the emotion is, it cannot match the reason.

This is also his saddest point.

Being sober all the time means that he has to suffer the pain of choice forever.

So he agreed to Elrond's request, and the black-haired lord also responded to the elf king's call.

Haldir's original purpose was to rescue the princess of Lorraine, and he almost completely obeyed Elrond's command.Therefore, after a very short period of rectification, the three armies sounded the horn of attack.

At this time, the sun was setting, the moon was shining brightly, and the stars were twinkling.

The army of elves fought desperately with the army of orcs.

The twins first rescued their mother, settled her down, and followed their father into this arduous war.

This time the fighting elves basically put their lives to the test, and they caught the half-orcs by surprise.Just after the elves of the forest valley broke through the city gate, Antar entered the city first with a group of light cavalry from the dense forest, and went to the half-orc dungeon to rescue Paturan and Legolas.

Paturan was badly wounded and was dragged onto a horse by the elves accompanying him.And Antal embraced the awakened Legolas, got on his mount, and drove the horse to leave.

Sauron, who had been busy commanding all this time, realized that he had neglected the control of Antal, but he couldn't separate himself from the two places, so he had to call for his men to seal the city gate, and walked up to the highest level of the castle with his bow and arrows. point.

The half-orcs gathered at the gate of the city and used their bodies to form a wall to isolate the army of elves inside and outside the city.Seeing this, Antal and his party had to turn around and retreat to the high ground behind them to avoid being injured by the flames of war.

They were just a group of light cavalry with wounded.

The Elven King has been fighting outside the city with Lin Gu's army. Seeing that a group of elves entering the city were forced to a high ground, he immediately led a group of people and tried to force their way into the city.

Sauron still had a good and beautiful appearance at this time, but he was even more terrifying than a tyrant.Holding his bow, he walked towards the high ground on foot, shooting arrow after arrow at the group of panicked elves.

When they were driven to the cliff, only Antal and Paturan were left.

Legolas buried his face in his mother's arms, and was so startled by the sounds of killing and fighting that he forgot to cry, his small body trembling constantly.

Sauron's last two arrows hit the horses under them. Paturan was seriously injured, but his reaction was still not slow.The moment he kicked off the stirrup, the injured white horse neighed and fell down the cliff.

Antal hugged Legolas and rolled off the horse. She only had time to push the elf in her arms away before Sauron stepped on her wrist.

He didn't use too much force, and then he threw off the longbow and bent
