Simulate the heavens from Faerûn

Chapter 254: Struggle for Power [Please subscribe]

In the 32nd year of the Second Age, when the star of Eärendil shone brightly in the west, humans looked at it with silver light in its orbit around the sun in amazement, and remembered the instructions of the Valar. They knew that it was the Valar. The signal sent to them is also a guide for ships sailing on the sea.

So the Edain set sail deep into the sea, following the star; Valar also made the sea calm for many days, allowing the sun to shine and the wind to blow the sails, so that what the Edain saw before their eyes was sparkling and smooth waves. The sea was like a mirror, and the waves cut by their bows were like brilliant flying snow.

Rosinhill is so bright that humans can still see it twinkling in the western sky even in the morning, and at night it appears to shine alone, eclipsing all other stars.

The Ixun people sailed in its direction. After crossing the vast and distant sea, they saw the "gift land" Andor prepared for them from a distance, shining in the golden mist.When they set foot on land, they found it beautiful and fertile, and everyone was very happy.

They named the land Alana, which means "the land of the stars"; they also called it Anaduni, which means "the land of the west". In the high elven language, it became "Numan". Noel".Since then, the most glorious Númenor Empire in the history of human civilization has begun...

"Alas... I'm so busy with my time~! This most sumptuous gluttonous feast in history can only be enjoyed by others... It's such a pity..."

In the furnace hanging high in the sky, Rey slowly opened his eyes, and a soft sigh echoed in the flames.

In this battle for power share, Rey took the lion's share and became the biggest winner.

The power of cold is mainly controlled by Varda, and part of the power is in the hands of Manwe; the power of fire is basically dominated by the Rey family. The weak Yarien and the Balrog are busy with work, and the other is busy hiding. Not daring to show their heads, they couldn't compete with Rey at all, so Rey attacked the city and occupied the land all the way, and had already controlled [-]% of the flame power, completely locking the position of the flame power god.

The situation of the dark forces is a bit complicated. Although it is not as chaotic as the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, the stable tug-of-war between the three pillars is more energy-consuming.Since it can be said that more than [-]% of the dark authorities were controlled by Melkor before, Rey, Ugoliant, and Sauron did not have much foundation, and they did not know much about the dark authorities, that is, as Melkor's confidants. Sauron also has a bit of a first-mover advantage in this authority.

So far, the three people have three parts of the dark power, and the share of power they hold is basically the same. The three people plus one are nearly [-]%. Half of the power share is still blank, and the remaining half is occupied by other Ainu.

Why is the progress of the three people jointly devouring power so slow, and even leaving gaps?Then we have to mention the stability of these three pillars. No one among the three can take the lead. Once someone takes the lead, the remaining two will definitely join forces to continuously attack the leader. The confrontation of will and power will continue one after another.No one among the three is good, and sincere cooperation is impossible. Bad tricks that harm oneself and not benefit oneself are common. It is better to suffer a loss yourself than to drag the leader down.

In this way, the three of them kept fighting, and in the end no one could gain an advantage. They were basically neck and neck. After a few decades, it has become the current embarrassing situation of being neither better nor worse, and no one can please it.

Although Rey gained the most in this power struggle, Rey is not satisfied. After all, who can have too much power that suits him? !In particular, the current situation of the dark authorities made him even more dissatisfied.

However, the current situation also has a huge relationship with Rey.Because before, most of Rey's efforts were focused on plundering the authority of the flames, and only a small part was on the struggle for the authority of darkness.

The reason why Rey attaches more importance to the power of fire is that he wants to usurp as much of the power of fire as possible. Although Yaryn and Balrog are incompetent, Rey cannot take back the power they have occupied.

One is the Ainur beside him. Unless Rey kills her or captures her, extracts her, and plunders her, then the power of the flames can be taken back; the other is the Balrog hiding in the corner of the corner and distributed underground in Alda. Guang said It is very difficult to find it, and it is said that it has robbed the authority.

Therefore, Rey focused most of his efforts on the struggle for flame authority. While suppressing the struggle for flame authority by Yaryn and Balrog, he also tried his best to erode the flame authority. In this way, he occupied [-]% of the flame authority, leaving the remaining One percent is occupied by Yareen, Balrog and other Ainur.

When the battle for the power of the flames came to an end and Rey concentrated on the battle for the power of darkness, he could no longer have a competitive advantage and could only maintain a three-legged situation.

It can be said that by now, the struggle for power has ended, and the dividends from Melkor's expulsion have been divided up. The profiteers should also concentrate on digesting the gains, but Rey has not given up, although he is not a greedy person. However, what he feels should belong to him should belong to him.

Therefore, in the next few decades, Rey did not care about human beings' trivial matters at all, but took advantage of the opportunity of the sun shining on the world to search for the big spider-Ugoliant.After all, Rey feels that he doesn't have enough, so he can only fill his desires by robbing others.

Although there are two targets, Ugoliant and Sauron, Sauron is Rey's scheduled tool and the villain BOSS as specified in the script. Rey does not want to cause any complications, so the only target candidate is Ugoliant. .

However, Ugoliant's traces are very difficult to find. After all, if it wants to hide, Rey can't do anything about it. Who can find it if it hides in a hole in the ground.

Rey has also been to the dark valley under the Ered Gorgoroth Mountains under the seabed, Nandun Goseb (the residence where Ugoliant parted ways with Melko after killing the Two Sacred Trees), and Ugoliant once lived here for a long time , and gave birth to an heir.But now, there is no trace here at all, and all the information has been washed away by the sea water.

Rey had to leave disappointedly and continued to explore every dark corner of Middle-earth.But the hard work paid off. Ugoliant, a monster that feeds on light, was finally caught by Rey and locked its position in the desolate and cold corner of the southern part of Middle-earth.

After discovering the trace of the target, Rey was not in a hurry.It's not that Rey is afraid of this extremely scary, ugly and huge spider, but that he doesn't want to cause harm to Middle-earth.

This was the consensus the Valar reached when they first captured Melkor alive - that the Valar would try their best not to engage in violent conflict in Arda.And because the land of Beleriand was lost to the sea some time ago, the Valar have decided not to take action in the world of Arda, nor to set foot in the world of Middle-earth.They were afraid of destroying Alda in one fell swoop, and as time went by, the strength of the Valar and Maia became increasingly terrifying. Therefore, the Maia had to follow the consensus reached by the Valar. Yi is no exception.

Therefore, unless Rey wanted to be beaten up by the Valar and locked up in a small dark room, it would be impossible for Rey to take action himself in Middle-earth from now on.The same goes for Ugoliant this time. After all, if Rey rushes forward to fight Ugoliant now, the result will be that the south of Middle-earth will be torn apart and become an archipelago, and Rey will also have to be punished, and the gain will outweigh the loss.

Therefore, Rey planned to let his men do this for him.Rey's men?Maya?Of course not, they are the group of Balrogs who were imprisoned in the furnace by Rey to educate and extract their origins. After Rey's painstaking education, most of the Balrogs realized their mistakes and converted to the bright and righteous Rey, swearing We must contribute to the construction of beautiful Alda and let the great sun shine and heat.

Let them do this, and if something goes wrong, Rey will just be reprimanded, and he will be able to reshape these errant Balrogs and give them an explanation.In this way, Rey's risk of committing a crime is much smaller, and Rey is not worried that the Balrog cannot capture Ugoliant. After all, Ugoliant is extremely afraid of the Balrog and cannot be defeated at all.However, Rey did not immediately release the Balrog and take action immediately. After all, Ugoliant was still very large, and because he had just occupied part of Heian's authority, Ugoliant was full of food and drink at this time and was full of energy. .

If he takes action immediately, Rey's Balrogs will definitely lose their troops. This is not what Rey wants. He also pointed out that the Balrogs will do things for him in the future that he cannot do.What's more, Rey knows that Ugoliant will soon fall into hunger and fall into weakness. With such a huge body, he still feeds on light. If Ugoliant doesn't starve to death, who will starve to death.

Rey only needs to wait until the end of Ugoliant, when it reaches the extreme of hunger and begins to devour itself, before taking action. There is no need to waste his men and alienate them just to gain some useless time.

In 442 of the Second Era, Tal-Minyatur (Elros), the founding king of the Númenor Empire, passed away after ruling the empire for more than 400 years.His son Valdamir Norimon became the second king.

In the early morning of one day, Rey had driven the "Sun Boat" alone to the Wall of the Sun, and Ugoliant also ushered in its end.

Wugoliant in the deep valley has shriveled to the extreme. The originally bulging belly full of patterns is so thin that only a layer of skin is left. The originally strong and powerful jointed limbs are only left with skeleton and cortex, and even the stinging hairs on them have been fixed by Wugoliant. It was devoured completely, and some joints and limbs were even covered with gnawing marks, revealing the dense white bones inside...

Ugoliant was extremely hungry, and it was extremely weak and was about to die. At this moment, Rey's long-prepared attack was launched.

Under Rey's targeted release, the Balrogs arrived outside the valley where Ugoliant lived. They quickly jumped up and swept across the mountains like a raging fire storm to the valley and completely surrounded the entire valley.

The Balrogs rushed down from the valley with flaming whips and smashed the spider web woven by Ugoliant. The flames and Balrogs rushed toward it crazily. The weak creature couldn't help but feel fear when it saw this, remembering the original time. In the scene of snatching Melkor's Silmarillion and being driven away by the Balrogs all over the mountains, it couldn't help but want to turn around and run away, and wanted to spray out a lot of black mist to cover its whereabouts.

"Ouch~!!"

But it is too weak. Although it still looks very scary and creepy on the outside, its insides have been almost completely drained. It can't even move, let alone escape. It can only scream. The cry is used to temporarily intimidate the enemy.Wugoliant struggled to stand up, and a sharp cry came from his mouth. The sound was not very loud, but it was extremely strange, like the cry of an owl, or the sound of gold and iron.If people or elves hear this scream, they will immediately tremble, as if they have heard the most terrifying sound in the world.

"Bang~!"

Unfortunately, this is of no use to the ferocious Balrogs. This ferocious scream can only remind them of the happy days of killing everyone in the past, making them even more bloodthirsty.A long flaming whip that made a terrifying whistling sound was whipped hard on Wugoliant's body. Wugoliant was immediately knocked to the ground, and the skin on its back was torn open, revealing the stark white bones. It lay on the ground twitching slightly, its joints and limbs It is also shaking slightly.

Ugoliant felt a terrifying force coming from his back, which hurt his heart. He felt life slowly passing away in his body.It wanted to stand up, it wanted to take revenge, but it was too weak. It couldn't even send out the screams it had made before. It could only lie on the ground and linger. It watched its enemies, whose bodies were burning with flames, slowly approaching. They were carrying A huge furnace came in front of it, and a huge suction force came from the furnace. It was swallowed into the blazing furnace and lost consciousness.

"Okay! Well done! My servants! I am satisfied with your performance. Tell me, what reward do you want..."

Seeing the furnace swallowing Ugoliant, Rey, who was already sure of victory, finally emerged from the furnace. He looked at the Balrogs kneeling around him with joy and said excitedly.

"Dedicating ourselves to our great master is our greatest reward!! This is our honor!!"

"It is our honor to serve the great master!!!" xN
Hearing this, the Balrogs lowered their heads, their hands trembled, and the shadow of terror lingered in their hearts.The leader of the Fire Demon Lord said flatteringly, and the other Fire Demons also agreed.

As a Balrog who narrowly escaped death from Rey, was squeezed like crazy, and was kneaded like dough to survive, they were full of fear and awe for their new master. Survival was already a luxury, and they didn't dare to do so. There is a trace of wrong thoughts.

Rey looked at the Balrogs crawling all over the mountains and plains, and he felt very satisfied. After all, the Balrogs' complete surrender to him meant that he had established authority in the hearts of the Balrogs, which also explained this. The Balrogs are useful, and the best laborers and those who do the dirty work will come.

So, Rey just nodded, and then assigned the next long-term task to the Balrogs.

"Very good! My servants, you have won my trust. I give you a difficult task...diving into underground volcanoes and magma...hollowing...smelting..."

"This is our honor!! We will fight to the death to complete it..."

Listening to the shouts of the Balrogs, Rey nodded lightly and flew towards the "Sun Ship" under the Wall of the Sun with the furnace in his arms.After Rey left, the flame demons lying on the ground started to rejoice, with whips flying and flames flying, expressing their joy at regaining their freedom...
