Then Théoden soon learned that Gandalf also had a mission and needed to go to the border of Gondor immediately.
After all, based on the Fellowship of the Ring's previous pace, Aragorn and his companions should be close to the borders of Gondor.
Therefore, Gandalf, preoccupied with the task of destroying the One Ring, declined King Théoden's invitation to the banquet and rode his white steed toward the agreed-upon border of Gondor.
……
"Princess Arwen, welcome to Lonely Mountain..."
Mike, who had returned to the Lonely Mountain Palace through the portal, immediately saw the Elf Princess waiting there.
“I’ve been at Lonely Mountain for several days now, and your welcoming ceremony seems a little late.” Princess Arwen glared at the goofy Mike with annoyance.
"It's never too late to welcome the beautiful princess." Mike smiled and stepped forward, giving her a warm hug.
Then he used one hand to pull Sofia, who was watching the show from the side, into his arms.
The fairy princess must have given up a lot to come here; her courage deserves encouragement.
Sophia, the half-elf, is equally important to Mike as his right-hand woman.
Therefore, Mike will not favor one girl over the other.
Fortunately, the two beautiful ladies were already aware of Mike's womanizing ways and had accepted it, so they didn't try to compete with each other.
"Mike, I brought you a gift this time, and only you are worthy of it." After a tender moment, Princess Alwin took out the [Human Emperor's Sword].
A fine sword is worthy of a hero. This kingly sword, passed down from Isildur, is only fit for the greatest hero.
At least, that's what the fairy princess thought.
“This is the King’s Sword that Isildur once used…” Mike could easily recognize the [Human Emperor’s Sword]. “Thank you, I really like this gift.”
In terms of manufacturing process, this "Human Emperor's Sword," which has existed for over a thousand years, is not even comparable to Legolas's Kel'Thuzad Bow.
However, in Middle-earth, the significance of this king's sword is unparalleled by any other weapon.
Although Mike doesn't consider himself a great hero, his urgent need to gather the power of faith makes him a good match for the mysterious "Human Emperor Sword".
"As a token of my gratitude, I also have a gift for you, which I believe you will appreciate." Mike said, taking out two Golden Apples from his storage space.
Yes, this is the lucky fruit that Mike received from God.
This thing can not only make people live forever, but also keep the user eternally youthful. For women, especially beautiful women, it is definitely the best gift.
"Is this for me?" Princess Arwen, the elf, immediately recognized the immense magical power contained within the golden apple before her.
"Of course, it can keep you young and beautiful forever..." After briefly introducing the power of the golden apple, Mike handed two golden apples to Princess Arwen and the half-elf Sophia.
Seeing the two people's moved expressions, Mike knew that the matter was settled.
The two of them should become best friends tonight...
Chapter 644 Collection
"Where do you think they're taking us?"
"Who knows? Hopefully Aragorn and the others will realize we're lost soon and come to rescue us..."
"..."
Pippin and Merry, who were mistaken for the Ringbearers, are not in immediate danger until the One Ring is found.
Therefore, although we suffered a lot along the way, overall it was a close call.
As for the Orc squad that abducted them, they did not return directly to Mordor until they obtained the One Ring.
Instead, they came to Isengard, wanting to cooperate with Saruman there.
Maximize profits.
Unfortunately, due to the delayed information, this small group of Orcs was unaware that Saruman and his newly created Orc army had already been wiped out.
Therefore, their efforts will be in vain.
Of course, the situation could be even worse. This group of powerful orcs, who had not concealed their whereabouts, had already been spotted by the treants in the Fangorn Forest before entering the Isengard Highlands.
“Merry, can you feel like there are many eyes watching us all around us…” After entering the depths of the Fagong Forest, Pipin couldn’t help but shiver as he looked at the dense jungle surrounding him.
“I feel the same way…” Merri wrapped her coat tighter around herself.
Just as the two were looking around suspiciously, they suddenly saw a densely packed group of tree people hiding behind an inconspicuous hillside.
The two were initially startled, but after realizing that the acquaintances meant them no harm, they understood that this was a good opportunity to escape.
As for the Treefolk, their unique heritage gives them a special care for their "children".
At this moment, the tree people gathered behind the hillside were discussing how to safely rescue the two captured little ones from the orcs.
"Oh no, I can't hold it anymore, I need to pee..."
"I can't hold it in any longer, put me down, or I'll just poop on you..."
"..."
Meanwhile, the two hobbit children exchanged a glance and then started "messing around" in perfect unison.
That exaggerated tone immediately alarmed the entire orc squad.
"You two take them to deal with this..." Annoyed by the noise, the orc squad leader glared disdainfully at the two hobbit children who were constantly urinating and defecating, and then said to the remaining orcs, "The rest of you stay put and rest."
Even the powerful orcs were starting to feel the strain of their continuous journey.
Since they were almost at Isengard Highlands, the Orc squad leader thought they could take this opportunity to let the team rest.
"Not here, I'm shy..."
"Yes, we need to take care of it behind that hillside..."
"..."
Meanwhile, Pippin and Merri continued to "torture" the two orcs holding them captive.
Through their coordinated efforts, the two unfortunate orcs were forced to lead them to the hillside where the treant tribe resided.
"Boom...bang..."
With two muffled thuds, the two powerful orcs who had gone behind the hillside had their heads smashed by the treants before they could even figure out what was happening.
They didn't even have a chance to call for help throughout the entire process.
"Where did you come from? Why did those orcs capture you?" Treebeard, the leader of the Tree People, asked kindly.
“We are hobbits living in the Shire, and we were attacked by a caravan of orcs in the Van Gogh Forest…” Pippin told everything he could, except for revealing the Fellowship of the Ring’s mission.
Upon learning that the orc squad had no reinforcements, Treebeard immediately summoned his people to prepare to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
"Take us with you, we can help too!" x2
The two hobbit children, always eager for a good show, immediately started chattering and wanted to join the battle.
How could they not be angry after being escorted by the orcs all the way?
"Hold on tight, remember to protect yourself during the battle!"
The two lively hobbits were not unpleasant to the Ents. So the tall, thin Ent was kind enough to lift them onto his back and let them sit comfortably.
"Yo-ho, charge!!!"
"That guy with the helmet is the squad leader, take him out first..."
"Yes, hit its head hard with a branch..."
"..."
Riding on the incredibly fast Tree Roots, the two hobbit children quickly became commanders.
In addition, the Treants are numerous and powerful, and their individual strength is inherently greater than that of the Orcs.
Amidst the cheers of the two hobbit children, hundreds of treants quickly surrounded the orc squad.
The one-sided battle didn't last long. The orcs in the orc squad had their heads smashed one by one by the treants, and some were even more tragically torn to pieces.
"Where are you going next?"
After the battle, Kaige, who had a great rapport with the two hobbit children, showed concern for them.
"Gandalf said before that he would be waiting for us somewhere?"
"At the border of Gondor, Gandalf said we would meet there..."
"..."
"We're going to the border of Gondor. Is it far from here?" Pippin finally remembered his destination after his friend reminded him.
“Gandalf? Is that the wizard in the white robe? What is your relationship with him?” Gandalf had only been gone from Isengard for a short time, so Quicklet naturally remembered him.
“We are…companions, yes, companions~” Piping proudly pulled up the tiger skin.
"So you know Mr. Mike too?" Quickie continued to ask.
“Of course, that Mr. Mike is a very good friend of ours. Don’t you think so, Merri?” Seeing the serious expressions on the tree people’s faces, Pipin, who was very good at reading people’s expressions, spoke up again with a smug look.
After all, if you really think about it, they did travel with Mike for a while, so they could be considered friends.
On the other hand, the Treefolk became increasingly amiable upon hearing that the two hobbit children were friends with their benefactor.
Knowing that the two were heading to the border of Gondor, he sent Quickbringer to escort them all the way to the outermost edge of Fargon Forest.
Isengard is located at the border between Rohan and Gondor. After leaving the Fagon Forest before Isengard, Pippin and his companion had reached the border of Gondor.
"When I see Mr. Mike, I will definitely pass on your gratitude to him." On the outskirts of the Fargon Forest, Pippin and Merri, each carrying a bunch of fruit, waved goodbye to the tree-man, Quickbranch.
Mike left in such a hurry that the Treefolk hadn't had a chance to thank him, so they wanted to convey their feelings to Mike through the two hobbit children.
After watching the Ents Quickbranch return to Fangorn Forest, Pippin and Merry ate some fruit to stave off hunger, then, after determining their direction, headed towards Gondor.
Meanwhile, a troubled Aragorn, along with Legolas and the others, traversed the ruins of Isengard and the valleys of Helm'd overnight to reach the border of Gondor.
Compared to Pippin and his companion, who had the advantage of riding on powerful orcs and treants, Aragorn and his group, who were traveling with the wounded Boromir, were covered in dust from their journey.
……
"Meri, did you hear that? It sounds like there's a fight going on over there..."
Pippin and his companion, having arrived at the border of Gondor, did not find Gandalf there. So they found a secluded corner to hide in, resting while waiting for the wizard to arrive.
Not long after, they heard the sounds of fighting coming from not far away.
"Let's go over and see what's going on."
The two fearless and restless hobbit children decided to go and see what was going on.
Meanwhile, in Gondor, as King Théoden of Rohan took action to clear out the Orc squads within his territory, some Orc squads, having nowhere else to turn, fled across the Rohan border toward the Gondor border in order to escape pursuit.
Faramiel, who was waiting for his elder brother's return on the border of Gondor, soon discovered this situation.
Without hesitation, he led the Kingdom Guard behind him to begin clearing out the invading orcs.
"Kill them all! Kill all these scum!!!"
At this moment, on the border plains of Gondor, Faramir, riding a tall horse, was leading a charge towards a large group of orcs, sword in hand.
Yes, Faramir was lucky today, as he happened to run into a group of orc troops whose several strong orc squads had regrouped together.
Their numbers were even greater than the number of his guards.
However, the orc troops, who had fled all the way here, had little will to fight, and were quickly scattered again by Faramir's several charges.
"That guy is so cool!"
Watching Faramir charge back and forth on the battlefield, Pippin couldn't help but sigh.
While scenes of using magic to fight like Mike are certainly cool, hand-to-hand combat with swords drawn is just as thrilling.
Beside him, Merri watched the fierce battle on the plains and nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, on Faramir's side, they only stopped after they had wiped out all the scattered orc troops.
"Clean up the battlefield and take stock of our casualties..."
Sheathing his blood-stained sword, Faramiel spoke while removing his helmet and catching his breath.
Clearly, killing so many powerful orcs at once was not an easy task for him.
It was only then that Pipin and Merri realized that the general who had fought so bravely was actually a handsome young man.
