save the bachelors

Chapter 5046 [Female Elf Taoriel]

"Take them back to the kingdom and lock them up." Thranduil then ordered, "When they agree to my terms, I will let them go. A hundred years is just a blink of an eye for the elves."

If they were not killed, the elves would be immortal. For example, Galadriel has lived for thousands of years, and even Elrond is her son-in-law.

Then, the thirteen dwarves were disarmed.

"Hey, this is a personal item." Legolas pulled out a silver box from Gloin's pocket, which made him very dissatisfied.

"Who is engraved on it? Your brother?" Legolas asked in confusion as he opened the box and saw the portrait engraved on it. He saw that the portrait looked very similar to Gloin and also had a beard.

"That's my wife." Groin said angrily.

Dwarven women also have beards, but slightly less.

Legolas looked at the other side of the box, where there was also a figure carved on it, but much younger, holding an axe in his hand.

"Who is this? A mutant orc?" Legolas said contemptuously.

"That's my son Gimli." Gloin roared angrily. How dare this damn elf speak of his beloved son like that? It was really infuriating.

The female elf Taoriel also searched Xiang Nan, Fili and others.

"Brother, you shouldn't have gone back to save them. They deserved to be eaten by the giant spider." Philip said unhappily.

These elves were really rude and took away all their weapons.

Taoriel was stunned when he heard this, glanced at Xiang Nan, and stopped searching him.

……

Afterwards, the dwarves were taken to the Elf Kingdom.

Xiang Nan noticed that Bilbo was not among them.

But he could sense that Bilbo was near.

He knew that it was because Bilbo put on the ring and thus escaped into the underworld.

The so-called ghost world is the world where ghosts exist. It is closely connected with the real world, but also independent of the real world.

In short, it is like becoming a ghost or a spirit, which ordinary people not only cannot see but also cannot feel.

But for Xiang Nan, he could easily sense Bilbo's presence.

After entering the Elf Kingdom, you will see that it is tall, grand, magnificent, luxurious, very beautiful and very spectacular.

But compared to the tranquility, comfort, prosperity and prosperity of another elven kingdom, Rivendell, the elven kingdom in the Mirkwood gives people a feeling of loneliness like the afterglow of the setting sun.

Xiang Nan knew that this was because Elendil did not have the Elven Ring in his hand, which resulted in his overall strength being inferior to Elrond, and therefore it was difficult for him to maintain the long-term prosperity of the Elven Kingdom.

For example, he did not have the ability to completely expel the giant spiders that were now wreaking havoc in Mirkwood and the orc army that had gathered in Dol Guldur.

It is precisely because of this that the Elf Kingdom has irreversibly declined, just like the afterglow of the setting sun, although it is still dazzling, people can all see its decline.

The dwarves were then imprisoned in the dungeon.

"Let us out~"

"This matter is not over~"

"How long are you going to keep us locked up?"

After being locked in the cell, the dwarves could not help but shout loudly, but the elves ignored them and left on their own.

……

"Oh my God, we're going to be locked up until we die."

"We'll never reach the Lonely Mountain, will we?"

"I don't know what time it is now. I feel a little hungry."

After the elves left, the dwarves began to grumble.

After a while, a female elf appeared and came to the cell where Xiang Nan was.

It was Taoriel who had been rescued by Xiang Nan before.

"What is that stone in your hand?" she asked Xiang Nan curiously, because Xiang Nan was playing with a black stone with words engraved on it.

"This is a rune stone with a powerful spell on it. Anyone who reads the words on it, except the dwarves, will be cursed forever." Xiang Nan said, raising the side with the words to Tauriel.

Taoriel was startled and immediately dodged.

She knew that Xiang Nan could use magic, and his magic power was very strong. He easily subdued their team of guards.

If he had not encountered the elf army, I believe that with his abilities, he would never have been captured.

"Hahahaha, you really believed it." Xiang Nan grinned, "Don't be afraid, this is not a spell, it's just a promise from my mother."

"What does it say?" Tauriel asked curiously.

"'Come back to me,'" Xiang Nan explained. "She thought I was reckless and might die in this adventure, so she hoped I could come back to her safely."

"Are you such a person?" Taoriel asked with a smile.

"Of course not." Xiang Nan waved his hand, then looked up again, where he heard the laughter of the elves, "It seems to be very lively up there."

"Yes, they hold a Feast of Stars," Tauriel explained. "To the Eldar, any light is worthy of respect, but the Wood Elves love the stars most."

The elves are divided into different races, such as the Sindar, the Noldor, the Vanyar, the Nandor, the Silvan, and so on.

Among them, Galadriel is a princess of the Noldor, Legolas is a prince of the Sindar, and Tauriel is a Silvan elf.

There are also differences in strengths and weaknesses among these races. For example, the elves of the Noldor and the Vanyar have all been to the holy land of Aman and received the teachings and blessings of the Valar and the Maiar, so their strength is generally stronger.

Although the Sindar did not go to Aman, they accepted the teachings of the Maia and Melian in Middle-earth, and therefore were the most beautiful and intelligent elves who remained in Middle-earth.

The Silvan Elves were much more ordinary in comparison. They were the elves who became frightened on their way to the holy land of Aman and so chose to remain in Middle-earth.

He had not been to the holy land of Aman to receive the teachings and blessings of the gods, nor had he received the teachings of Maia Melian, so he seemed mediocre in all aspects.

"I always thought that starlight was cold and out of reach," said Xiang Nan.

"It is a memory, precious and pure, like your promise," Tauriel explained, and then added gracefully, "I have walked under the stars, through the forests, and across the night sky. I watched the world fade away, and the pure white light permeated every breath."

"I saw a fire moon once. It rose huge over the path of Dunland, filling the sky with red and gold. We were escorting a group of traders from the Luin Mountains, trading silver for furs.

We were heading south along the Greenway, with the Misty Mountains stretching out on the left. Then it appeared, a huge fire moon lighting up the road, I really wish I could show you. "Xiang Nan also said.

"Thank you." Taoriel nodded. From Xiang Nan's words, she could imagine how beautiful the moon would be.
