Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth.

Chapter 35 Return
Perhaps Thorin will leave here and go to the human town soon, but probably not now.

During this period, Thorin had only one obsession, which was to retake the Lonely Mountain. Ever since he inherited the title of King of the Dwarves of Durin, his desire to retake his homeland became stronger and stronger, tormenting his body and mind day and night.

But apart from being a little worried, Thorin was still normal at this time. He had the bearing and skills that a king should have.

The dragon was still far away from him.

We met once and there was nothing much to say.

Levi returned to the hotel and stayed there for a few more days to experience the customs and culture of the dwarves and to visit the market to buy some local specialties.

I also bought a lot of lapis lazuli by the way.

This beautiful blue stone is also produced among the dwarves, but the demand is not great. According to observation, this thing is generally used by them as floor or wall decoration. Levi got a bunch of it without spending too much money.

In this way, he walked around and visited until the few silver coins left in his backpack were all gone, and then Levi was ready to go back.

At this point, this trip to the Blue Mountains has come to an end.

"Oh, what a pity, our drinking king is leaving. You are the best drinker I have ever seen. Sir, please tell me your name."

Upon learning that the human who had come from afar was about to leave, the innkeeper personally went out to see him off for a few steps.

To be honest, this innkeeper's temperament is really flexible. He is polite when he should be polite, and as noisy as other dwarves when he should make a fuss.

"Levi." Levi left his name.

"Levi... I'll remember that. You're welcome to come again next time. Haha, if you're free next time, I think we can have a drink together."

Next time...I don't know when it will be.

Without much lingering, Levi mounted his horse and walked along the road out of the mountain.

As soon as he left the safe area where the dwarves lived, Levi immediately put on full armor and galloped through the mountains and forests. His silver-gray appearance made him look like someone who was not easy to mess with.

Ordinary bandits and solitary orcs would probably retreat three feet away when they saw it.

Levi today is no longer the ignorant adventurer who just came out of the Charles. He has walked a lot and seen a lot of blood. He has no intention of teasing those bandits who may be watching in secret. He wears armor when he needs to in places where there may be danger.

At this moment, Levi obviously values ​​safety and efficiency more than simplicity and beauty.

Although this armor is actually not ugly.

There weren't many twists and turns along the way.

A breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.

By the Shuen River, Levi squatted down and lightly touched the river water with his fingers.

"It's getting cold."

Autumn is coming.

Far away in the Shire, Bilbo had the same thought in his mind.

He put on a coat and sat in the house, looking at the stars in the sky through the window and smoking a pipe made in Charles.

"It's good, it's good. I can see the stars when I look up, and I can see the garden, grass, and river outside when I look down."

Moreover, there is a warm stove next to it, so there is no need to worry even when winter comes.

With such a good life, what else could you ask for?
I don’t know how Levi is doing now, I hope he has the best journey.

It has been a while since Levi left, but the stories he told seem to still linger in my ears. He said that the destination of this journey is the Blue Mountains in the west, which must be a spectacular place.

As Bilbo thought about this, he gradually felt his eyelids unable to support themselves and soon went to bed and fell asleep.

The next morning.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

"Wait a minute - please wait a minute! Please let me turn this fried egg over first. Oh, mainly because I didn't expect anyone to come at this time..."

crunch.

As the sound got closer, the door opened.

Listening to these words, Levi felt that they sounded a little familiar. It seemed that he would have to choose a time when Bilbo was not cooking next time.

"Levi! You're back so soon. Come in, I'm making breakfast. Would you like to eat together?" "Haha, sorry to bother you." Levi didn't refuse. He walked into the house naturally, then took the spatula under Bilbo's expectant gaze and started making breakfast.

After a while, Bilbo, whose face was glowing with food, burped contentedly and slumped in the chair, not wanting to move at all.

Every time Levi comes, it means that he can’t hold back his hunger.

It didn't bother Bilbo for long.

After finishing breakfast and having an early lunch with Bilbo, Levi prepared to go home.

Bilbo looked regretful.

But before leaving this time, Levi left something for Bilbo.

"This is a little specialty I brought back from the dwarves in the Blue Mountains. It's a token of my gratitude for always taking care of me."

Levi took out a big bag and put it on the floor with a clang.

Is this “a little” a bit too much?

Bilbo looked at the sack and then at Levi.

"Oh, you're so polite. That's what I should do. I'm very happy that you can come to see me."

Although he said this, the hobbit still put his head into the big sack with an expectant look on his face.

"Is this... a sword?"

Bilbo curiously took out the dwarven steel sword and drew it out in a flash. The sword reflected his dazed face. The cold light emitted by the blade made the Hobbit, who had lived in comfort for a long time, feel a little uncomfortable.

"I can't really think of anything you could use this thing for, maybe it could be used for cutting vegetables?"

"Use it however you want." Levi shrugged.

"But to be honest, it's pretty nice."

Shaking his head, Bilbo placed the sword on the cabinet as a nice ornament.

Then he put his head into the bag again, took out a round piece of hard bread and smelled it.

"what is this?"

"Kram," Levi replied, "It is said that the dwarves' caravan brought it back from the Valley State. It is a specialty food there. I thought you might be interested, so I bought some more."

In fact, it is the Zhongzhou version of black bread.

Levi added in his mind.

“They keep for a long time and you can eat them slowly.”

Although he was already very full, Bilbo still tasted a bite of the bread called Crum.

"It has a very thick texture and a little salty. Salt should be added to it. Hmm... The taste is very unique and fresh. I think it's not bad." Bilbo nodded, obviously approving of the food.

"As long as you're satisfied."

In Bilbo's opinion, Levi was a man who always came and went in a hurry and never stayed for long.

It seemed like just a blink of an eye, and Levi disappeared at the end of the sight, along with his fully armed horse.

Bilbo took another bite of Crumb and looked at the sack of bread on the ground, scratching his head.

"Wait, Levi didn't seem to say how long these things can be preserved. How long... How long?"

Levi really doesn't care much about the shelf life of food.

Anyway, it's unlimited if you put it in the inventory.

After leaving the Shire, Levi stayed in the Bree area for a while, asked around and bought a lot of different books, and also bought two sheep from a nearby farmer and continued on his journey.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a male or female, or whether it’s a wool-producing breed or not, it will give birth if it’s fed wheat.

"came back…"

After opening the city gate, Levi settled the two sheep and immediately inspected his territory. Everything was still the same, with no changes except that the crops were ripe.

Next, it’s time to exert force.
