Start with the Lord of the Rings

In front of the Stone Tower of Orsanc.

"Bang"

As a white figure quickly fell down, a heart-shattering muffled sound was heard.

The Lord of Isengard, the president of the Holy White Council, the most powerful council in Middle-earth, and the white-robed wizard Saruman known as the "wise man" died so simply in front of everyone.

Next, the scene after the death of not the big man was silent for a while.

Instead, the voices of complaining and scolding immediately rang out among the people below.

"Damn, what is this."

The dwarf Gimli felt that his face was covered with a thick, hot, wet liquid for a moment, and immediately shouted.

"It seems to be brains, Saruman's brains."

"Damn!"

"Bah ah."

"This stuff tastes awful"

"My God, you actually tasted it?"

"I don't want to taste it! That thing just splattered into my mouth, damn it!"

"Uh"

"What does it taste like?"

"."

In front of such a bloody scene.

Except for Jin Li who was thinking and noisy for a while.

There were only two little hobbits whispering.

Morgan, Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, and Eomer, who knew Saruman's identity well, looked at the headless corpse whose white robe was stained with blood and began to slide into the water.

For a while, they all fell silent.

Among them, especially Eomer, who was the third Marshal of Rohan.

Rohan and Isengard meet, and Eomer knows all too well what Isengard has done to Rohan over the years.

It can be said that he knows Saruman's evil and power better than anyone else on the scene.

So, look at the headless corpse in the white robe in front of you.

Eomer's expression froze for a moment.

In addition to Eomer, it was Gandalf, who was deeply touched by Saruman's death and had the most complicated mood.

a long time.

Looking at the headless corpse gradually sinking into the murky water.

There was only one sigh in Gandalf's heart.

And for Morgan.

Saruman's sudden death was full of drama and irony.

In fact, as early as the bottom of the Moria mine.

After he and Gandalf fell into the abyss and fought the Balrog.

He knew Gandalf's body, the body that came to Middle-earth to walk.

Powerful because of the soul.

But at the same time, this body is also extremely fragile.

He'll be hungry, he'll need to eat, he'll be hurt, he'll bleed, and he'll die as well.

As the first white-robed wizard who was ordered to come to Middle-earth.

Saruman's strength is beyond doubt.

But in the same way, the body he used to place the soul and walk on his behalf was naturally the same as Gandalf.

You will get hurt and you will die.

It's just that the arrogant Saruman must have never thought that he would eventually die at the hands of Grima, who he regarded as a slave and lackey.

Although no one else thought of it at all.

But Morgan was not surprised.

Even if he is not vigilant enough, he will be attacked and killed by others.

It's no surprise.

"So, we are. We have already won?"

At this moment, Legolas, who calmly wiped off the brains that had splattered on his face, looked at the silence of his companions, and suddenly said.

"If you don't count Grima, I think there should be no other enemies in this stone tower."

Morgan withdrew his gaze as the corpse sank into the water, and casually looked up and looked up.

On the upper edge of the stone tower, Grima, in a black robe, was leaning out and looking down.

At this time, I saw Morgan's eyes from below.

Grima couldn't help shaking.

Then the body slowly backed away.

"Let's go, maybe there's something hidden in this Orthank tower."

Then Gandalf finally spoke.

Saying that, Jie Ying stepped forward immediately.

At this moment, the Hobbit Pippin who was sitting behind Aragorn suddenly jumped off his horse and strode toward the turbid water where Saruman's body was.

"Pipin."

Aragorn quickly shouted with a puzzled expression.

Pippin's action immediately caught everyone's attention.

Morgan looked at this scene, his face changed slightly, and he immediately remembered something.

Then, in the eyes of Morgan and everyone.

Pippin the dwarf hobbit accurately reached out and fished out a black crystal ball the size of a human slap from the water.

"really."

"It's the black crystal ball that Saruman revealed above the Orthank Tower before."

"It is also one of the crystal balls of true knowledge."

Morgan looked at the crystal ball in Pippin's hand, and images quickly flashed through his mind.

different from others.

Gandalf's eyes widened at the sight of the crystal ball in Pippin's hand.

Then, he quickly pulled the reins, trotted forward on horseback, and said, "Perry Green Tucker."

Gandalf's voice instantly made Pippin, who was staring at the crystal ball in his hand, regain his senses.

"give it to me."

Seeing the reluctance in the eyes of the little hobbit in front of him, Gandalf said with a serious face: "Hurry up."

Although very sad.

But Pippin could not resist Gandalf at this time.

He had to reluctantly present the black crystal ball.

Gandalf took the crystal ball of true knowledge, and immediately wrapped the crystal ball with his wide white robe.

Looking back at Pippin with an inexplicable look, Gandalf pulled the reins, and Jie Ying immediately walked towards the gate of the towering stone tower ahead.

Pippin watched Gandalf's retreating back with unwilling eyes.

Watch this scene.

Morgan knew all too well that it was no wonder that Pippin would be the first person in the Fellowship of the Ring expedition.

However, the Dark Demon Lord Sauron really understands human nature and people's hearts, and is also extremely good at bewitching and seducing.

Among the members of the expedition who have just been closest to the crystal ball of true knowledge.

Only the young hobbit Pipin was sexually active and exuberantly curious.

Such objects are the easiest to be seduced by Sauron.

Although this crystal ball of true knowledge, which has been contaminated by Sauron, is far less attractive to people than the Supreme Lord of the Rings.

But it was not something the young Pippin could resist.

"Let's go."

At this time, Aragorn rode forward and pulled Pippin onto the horse's back.

The crowd soon followed Gandalf to the gate of the towering stone tower in front of them.

It was Grima who opened the gates of the Tower of Orthank.

Eomer also followed through on his previous promise in front of the tower.

Freed Grima.

Gandalf and a group of expedition members began to search for the towering tower.

after an hour.

On the top floor of the stone tower, there is a very spacious and solemn hall.

Rows of tall bookshelves stand.

Every bookshelf is filled with various books.

Not far from the bookshelf is a long desk, with a large number of various information books scattered on it, as well as some other scattered experiments.

farther.

The black stone seat in the center of the room is tall and majestic.

This is where the study, laboratory, conference room and one are integrated.

This is where Saruman usually stays.

At this moment Gandalf was standing at the desk constantly flipping through something.

Legolas is helping.

Gimli sat on a bench in front of his desk smoking a cigarette.

Morgan sat on the tall stone pedestal in the center of the room and closed his eyes.

It didn't take long.

When the figures of Aragorn and Eomer arrived in this huge room one after another.

Gandalf also stopped at last from flipping through the books.

"How about it?"

"Did you find it?"

Gandalf asked as he looked at the two approaching.

Aragorn and Eomer just shook their heads.

"The only information Saruman left about Mordo points to Gondor."

"Does that indicate that the target of Sauron's attack is Gondor?"

At this time, Morgan, who was sitting on the tall stone seat, opened his eyes and looked at the frowning Gandalf.

He knew that the target of Modo's attack was Gondor because of the memory of the plot.

But if he can't come up with reason and evidence, he can't convince Gandalf Aragorn and the others in such a big event.

"Although there is a possibility"

"But, it's not enough."

Gandalf looked at Morgan and shook his head, and continued: "We cannot convince King Theoden to send troops to aid Gondor without sufficient reason."

The voice fell.

Everyone was silent for a while.

Gandalf's thoughts were now clear to everyone in the hall except Gimli.

That is the defeat of Isengard.

Make sure that Modo must send troops to start a war.

However, Gandalf wasn't sure where Modo's attack was going.

Although Gandalf also doubted in his heart that Modo's target might be the nearest Gondor.

But as he said, he needs enough reasons and evidence to convince his opponents who want to ask for help for Gondor.

Also convince yourself.

There is no room for sloppiness in such a major event that concerns the safety of the entire Middle-earth world.

Hear what Gandalf says.

Morgan remained silent.

Speaking of which, there is another way, and that is to use the crystal ball of true knowledge that Pippin picked up and is now in the hands of Gandalf.

But that was too dangerous.

Morgan even made it clear that Gandalf would not agree.

And knowing the crystal ball is not easy.

It is impossible for ordinary people to know the existence of the crystal ball of true knowledge.

Morgan is naturally among them.

At this time, Gandalf, who was knowledgeable, and Aragorn, who had a distinguished bloodline, knew that in the stone hall.

"Can't say it, can't say it."

"Do you really have to wait for Pi Pin to start a group privately?"

Morgan sat on the tall stone seat and muttered to himself.

He is not a sudden whim, but thinking about accelerating the progress of the world through his own hands, which should be more beneficial to the progress of the system on his body.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed in Morgan's mind: there is.

Getting ready to speak.

At this time.

A burst of messy footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall.

Everyone raised their heads, and soon saw a large group of tall men in black robes walking into the hall.

It was the group of black-robed knights who had come to find Aragorn before.

Not long ago they had been sent by Aragorn to search for the great stone tower beneath them.

The same goes for the hussars that Eomer brought, and they all went to search for the tower.

But they searched for the towers near the bottom.

The top floors were searched by the expedition team.

"How about it?"

Gandalf asked, looking at the two elves approaching.

For Eldron's twin sons, Elladan and Elohir.

Gandalf must have known.

Although the relationship with them is not as good as that of Aragon.

"No."

Elladan shook his head.

What they searched for were the floors in the tower where supplies and food were stored, where they might find confidential information.

Gandalf knew what he knew, and he only asked casually.

No further information could be found inside the stone tower.

The group did not continue to gather together.

Everyone came from long distances and long journeys.

Isengard is now captured.

Saruman is dead.

Although the time is still urgent, it is necessary to have a good meal and rest at such a time.

There is no shortage of food and drinks stored in such a towering tower as Isengard.

The elite hussars from Rohan and the thirty Dúnedan people who came to support the patriarch Aragon, known as the "grey-clothed powerhouse", lived in the wild all year round, and they were very skilled in cooking.

Soon, the people in the hall dispersed one after another, leaving only Morgan, Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli, the five companions.

Morgan suddenly said, "Gandalf, what happened to the crystal ball that Saruman showed us before?"

The voice fell.

Everyone's eyes first focused on Morgan, and then all looked at Gandalf.

After all, before Gandalf took the crystal ball from the Hobbit Pippin, everyone saw it.

Gandalf looked at Morgan carefully.

After seeing Morgan's clear and deep eyes, he immediately thought of the scene where Morgan rejected the Lord of the Rings at Bilbo's house.

Can not help but secretly scolded himself for being too arrogant.

At this time, when Morgan asked, it is better to tell Palantir (the crystal ball of true knowledge) and a few partners.

Think so.

Gandalf took out the crystal ball covered with white cloth and placed it on the table.

Then he began to say: "Perhaps, you have heard of a kind of treasure that can be seen from a distance, can cross mountains, forests, rivers, wilderness and other distant distances and communicate with each other."

"Yes, now I tell you, this treasure does exist"

Gandalf had just finished speaking.

Gimli couldn't help interrupting immediately: "Wait, Gandalf, are you sure you're not joking anymore?"

"I heard it right?"

"of course not."

Gandalf shook his head and continued: "You heard right."

"Because that treasure is right in front of our eyes now."

As soon as these words were said, several people's eyes immediately turned to the ball on the table that was tightly wrapped in white cloth.

"that's it"

Gandalf said softly: "Palantir."

At this moment, Aragorn, who was sitting in the corner of the desk, immediately widened his eyes.

But he quickly reacted, and his expression became complicated when he looked at Palantir, who was wrapped in white cloth.

"So miraculous?"

"Can you open it and take a look?"

"I want to chat with Groin who is far away in Erebo."

The excited Gimli asked immediately.

"Of course not."

"It can't make a single communication."

"And, it's already tainted"

The voice fell.

Aragorn stood up abruptly and looked at Gandalf: "You say it is polluted?"

Gandalf nodded: "Yes, I suspect Saruman's betrayal has a lot to do with his contact with Sauron."

Aragorn: "So, can it connect to Sauron?"

Gandalf nodded again: "Of course."

Aragorn: "I have an idea."

Gandalf: "You better not think about using it. The evil of the giant eye is more dangerous and evil than you and I think."

Aragorn: "I know, but I insist"
