Ellena woke up very early the next day, and the pale morning sun shone on her face through the window. She turned around and turned her back to the sun, but the strange thing was that she had a strong desire to continue sleeping but couldn't help it anyway. can not fall asleep.

Legolas had already got up and got dressed, the emblem of the Jungle family on the neckline of the silver-gray clothes was particularly conspicuous, Ellena didn't want to move at all, staring at Legolas' clean and handsome face no matter what, she was How did you abduct this guy?

Elena continued to stare at His Royal Highness with this question.

"Is there something on my face?" Legolas looked at his appearance in the mirror again with a frown as the corners of his mouth twitched slightly as Elena's sharp gaze looked on.

"Don't worry about it, Legolas," Ellena stretched out her white arms from under the quilt with a smile, "There will be no strange things on your face at any time, I just compare Akon for you again. Shocked by the more dazzling beauty of gemstones."

Legolas didn't seem to hear anything, except that the angle of the corners of his mouth rose a little bit. He walked to the bed and pulled Elena up, and Elina slumped in his arms and rubbed against him. not moving.Seeing that Ellena's eyes were about to close again, Legolas had no choice but to remind her helplessly while trying to pull her off: "Dear Princess, if we don't get up again, we will be late, and the meeting will be held soon." It’s about to be held, and I think you won’t miss this important meeting.” Ellena buried her head in her husband’s arms like a fool, and hugged his waist tightly with both hands.

Ellena jumped out of his arms and began the necessary pre-meeting steps. She was wearing a dress the same color as Legolas's. In it, though Legolas's expression showed that she would not look bad in it.

Of course, this has no effect on the progress of the meeting.

The meeting was held on Elrond's favorite terrace. All the participants were familiar to Ellena, but to Ellena's surprise, Tariel also appeared at the meeting. Something bad bothered her, Ellena walked up to hug her quickly: "I didn't know you were here, did you come alone?" Tariel smiled and hugged her back forcefully: "I I just arrived this morning, Kili came with me, and I’m here to deliver a message.” When mentioning this news, the smile on Tariel’s face faded again, and he became frowning, and Ellena didn’t ask for details. What is the news, she already has some guesses in her heart, and this will be verified at the meeting.

Elena saw Gimli and Boromir. The former was sitting next to his father, who looked exactly the same as his father when he was young, so she recognized him at a glance. The latter was sitting a little far away from everyone. He was tall and tall, with a noble and handsome face, dark hair and gray eyes, and his expression was very serious and proud.

Through him, Ellena could almost imagine the appearance of Denethor, the regent. She looked at the second member of the Lord of the Rings expedition (the first was Gandalf) quietly, and then Lose interest and concentrate on listening to the content of the meeting.

Undoubtedly, the theme of the meeting is the current situation in Middle-earth and Sauron, the Demon Lord, as well as the magical and troublesome Supreme Lord of the Rings.Elrond tells of Sauron and the Ring of Power and how they were forged in the distant Second Age, the exile of the Ring, the glory and fall of Númenor, Elendil's return across the sea The history of Earth, of course, and the Battle of the Last Alliance.It was really a long story, and even though Elrond's language was very succinct, it was already noon when they finished listening, and the sun was hanging high in the middle of the sky.

Elena couldn't help covering her face and yawned secretly. What she cared about was actually the final decision of the meeting. She knew the process a long time ago, including Boromir's questioning of Aragorn. From Boromir's point of view Thinking about it, his behavior couldn't be more normal. As the actual ruler of Gondor, who would want an unknown person to suddenly appear as their king?

Different from Ellena's calmness, both Legolas and Bilbo showed expressions of dissatisfaction with this doubt. Suddenly, Bilbo stood up and recited loudly:

Real gold doesn't necessarily shine,

Not all prodigal sons lose their way;

The tough old man does not show his age,

The roots are deep and they are not afraid of frost.

A single spark can also rekindle,

Twilight can also tear the darkness;

The broken holy sword has a day to be recast,

He who loses his crown is king again.

"It may not be very nice, but if you want something more than Elrond's advice, this should hit the spot. If the riddle is worth 110 days' journey, then you'd better listen to the explanation." He said He snorted and sat down.

Elena could not help smiling. Bilbo was always very protective of his friends.

Afterwards, Aragorn, Bilbo, and Gandalf alternately narrated their experiences. During the conversation and debate, all the information came together like a jigsaw puzzle, revealing several important pieces of information:

First, Frodo did inherit the One Ring from Bilbo.

Second, Sauron already knew that the Lord of the Rings was in the hands of the Hobbit, but did not know the exact information of Frodo.

Third, Saruman has rebelled.

Fourth, the Ring must be destroyed.

"It is a hopeless way, and what strength have we to throw it into the fire that forged it? It is the heart of the enemy. If wise Elrond knows what I mean, I should say it is a foolish way." It was Irest, the leader of the elders under Elrond who spoke, and in a sense, his words were not wrong.

Ellena suddenly said: "You are right, our strength cannot compete with Sauron, but courage is the key to the completion of this mission. The people of Middle Earth have not lost such a thing, whether it is Gondor or Rohan, Elves or dwarves, they both still fought valiantly against Sauron. Sauron would not have imagined that he who had the Ring would try to destroy it, and as long as he does not all get his weapons, there is still hope for us."

"Yes, perhaps that is stupidity in the eyes of those who deceive themselves," said Gandalf. "Well, let stupidity be our cover from the eyes of the Enemy! Even though he is cunning, the only thing he has The measure of knowledge is desire, and it is the real stupidity to measure all living beings by this. We will make him greatly miscalculate."

Everyone was silent for a while, as if they were all thinking. After a while, Elrond said: "At least for a while, this is a necessary path. The weak may have the same opportunity as the strong to complete it." This task, the way the world's giants are driven to great feats, often goes like this: the weak act because they have no choice, and the strong look elsewhere half-heartedly."

As soon as Elrond's words fell, Bilbo stood up. His aging face had a pair of vigorous eyes. In his mouth, this difficult journey seemed to be no different from any travel and adventure in the past. He bravely Wanting to take on the burden: "It was Bilbo the stupid hobbit who started it, so Bilbo should fix it up, or kill himself."

It might have been startled and amused to those who were not familiar with him, like Boromir, but all the others looked gravely and looked at Bilbo with respect. He became such a person.

Gandalf refused him with a smile. The Lord of the Rings had changed hands, and this task was beyond his power. The gray robe wizard decided to form a Lord of the Rings expedition. Perhaps he had already thought about this idea before the meeting started, but , the selection of the team members made the scene extraordinarily quiet again, Ellena thought for a while, and lowered her eyes like everyone else.

Until the bell rang at noon, still no one spoke. Elina looked at Frodo secretly from the corner of her eye. His face was pale, and there was great fear in his eyes.Elina retracted her gaze, and inexplicably became nervous again. She was once again very uncertain and worried about whether Frodo could complete the task.

There was a dead silence all around, even the sound of breathing was inaudible, only the birds in the forest were still singing cheerfully.

"I would take the Ring with me," said a faint voice, "but I don't know what the future holds."

All looked up, and Frodo was still trembling.

Ellena breathed a sigh of relief, after all, it was the kid from the Baggins and Tooke family.
