Chapter 94 The King's Treasure (1)
The Dabai was still moving westward along the sea breeze, and waves of waves hit the ship, causing it to sway regularly.
The most suitable thing for this kind of sunny weather is to sit on the deck, hold a glass of light wine, take a nap quietly along the sway, and take a sip from time to time.
Thorin stayed at the stern of the boat and stared blankly at the slowly calming track behind the boat, while Legolas sat on the mast and looked silently towards the west.
Harry also lay bored on the railing on the side of the string, watching the fish churn up and down with the waves.
"Strange, the seabed here is so low!"
Harry said, looking at the crystal clear water.
Taurel explained: "That's because this was once a continent."
"What continent, oh, I remember, Legolas said before, his hometown is in this continent, right?"
"Yes, but we are still far away..."
"Tell me the story of the past and tell me the hometown of Legolas's past life."
Taurel touched Harry's head and started today's small class.
"Okay, then I'll tell you the most beautiful love story in the world, Lucien and Beren."
Once upon a time there was a handsome elf named Elwe. He shouldered an important mission, which was to lead his tribe members to a treasure land called Verino. The gods promised that they would stay young and stay away from disputes there.
But Elway prefers the stars, forests, grass and flowers in Middle Earth, so he always leads his tribe members to the end of the Western Expedition.
After seven years of the Western Expedition, Elwe finally arrived at the last continent before crossing the sea, but he was unwilling to leave again because he met the love of his life in the forest - a beautiful goddess of Maiya, Mei'an.
They got married here, and the tribesmen who were willing to follow them also stayed in the forest together, and established a beautiful city-state - Dorias, who respected Elvi as king and Meian as queen. They lived together in that forest, which was the happiest and happiest time in their lives.
Later, the great demon king Mogoth appeared in Angban in the north and started a war against the elves of Middle Earth with his family. In order to protect her husband's career and relatives, Queen Mei'an transformed her entire power as Maiya into an insurmountable magical line of defense, Meiseong.
From then on, despite the bloody world outside, life in the ring was still beautiful and peaceful. Then their former relative, Nodo elves, came across the sea and founded a country around Dorias.
King Elvi was very unhappy because they brought bad news that the elves of Nodo brutally killed the king's younger brother Orvi and his tribe in order to cross the sea.
The Nordo elves came for the treasure of the diamonds in their tribe. It turned out that after Vilino's sentence was over, Morgoth attacked the city of the Nordo elves, killed Fenway, the king of the Nordo elves, took away three elves and fled back to Middle-earth. The Nordo elves who came across the sea came to attack Morgoth. They vowed that they would never let the elves fall into the hands of any creature other than the Nordo elves.
However, Elwe did not want to pay attention to these unwise relatives. He just wanted to lead his own ethnic group and live in Dorias with peace and joy forever.
But the changes in all things in the world are always so unchanged by the individual will. The king and the queen's daughter, the innocent, beautiful and powerful Lucien, actually fell in love.
The shocked Elwe and Meien met their son-in-law, but they were a man with a mortal fate, a man named Beren.
How can elves combine with humans?
The king was very annoyed. It was not that Elwe had any prejudice against humanity. In fact, every elves knew that humanity would come and would come, because elves were the firstborn children of the Creator God, while humanity was the secondborn children of the Creator God. In essence, they were a family.
However, the fate of human beings is different from that of elves. They will die in the end, and even their souls will not stay in Arda for a long time, while the elves will live forever, and even their souls will remain in the temple of Mandus until the end of the world.
His beloved daughter Lucyen fell in love with a human being, which means that after the death of that hateful man, his daughter will suffer eternal pain and fall into eternal sorrow and longing.
How can this be done?
The king felt terrible just thinking about it, but his daughter Lucien didn't care at all. What the young girl wanted was a passionate love, just like the king when she was young.
But Elway thought he had to be the evil man, so he made his own request to Beren.
'Mortals can marry my daughter, but the most beautiful princess in the world naturally needs the most beautiful jewelry in the world as a betrothal gift. Beren, you need to go to Angban, go to the iron crown of the dark demon king, and take off an elf diamond, so that you can prove your qualifications.'
This is an impossible task. The powerful demon king Mogoth occupied the entire north of the continent, and had evil dogs, flame demons, and countless servants under his command. Even the powerful Nodo elves could only barely block this force in the north, and could not advance in an instant, let alone humans?
However, the man did it. He really brought back a diamond from Angban, but the price was his own life. When he held up his empty right hand and proved to Elwe, 'The diamond was on my right hand, but now it fell into the hungry wolf's belly with my right hand', Elwe was moved.
Such a majestic man is indeed enough to match the king's daughter, so King Elway agreed to their marriage.
"And then the story ended like this?" Harry asked.
Taorell shook his head: "If it ended like this, it wouldn't have been circulating for tens of thousands of years."
On their way back, Mabulon, the commander of Dorias, came to tell the king that Caharos, the hungry wolf of Morgoth, had inexplicably entered Dorias, so the group went to hunt the wolf.
The fierce mythical hungry wolf easily penetrated the defense line arranged by the elves, and then headed straight for King Elwe. At this time, Beren blocked the evil wolf and the king and saved him.
Beren was seriously injured. The brave divine dog Juan and Beren fought together to kill the evil wolf, but Juan and Beren were both exhausted.
The king's general Mabulon cut out a palm with pure light from the wolve's belly with tears. The palm disappeared as soon as it saw the air, leaving only beautiful peerless jewelry, the elf diamond. He placed the diamond in Beren's only left left hand, and Beren gave it to the king.
‘Now, I did it.’ After that, Beren looked at Lucien and died.
The elf princess Lucien was extremely sad. She hugged Beren's body and asked him to wait in the temple of Mandus. Then sadness and pain swept through her young life. Lucien's soul floated to the temple of Mandus.
Where she sang her own ballad softly, which was the story of her love with Beren. This beautiful and sad song accompanied by beautiful dance silenced the entire Mandus palace.
In the end, their story touched Mandus, who asked Manway, the king of the gods, to open a favor to the lovers, but the price was that Lucien wanted to give up his eternal life and become a person who would bear the death of death.
Lucien agreed happily, and then they returned to Middle-earth and returned to Berehionde, who lived in seclusion on the island of Thorgaran on the Abdullan River in Osirionde. The following year, their son, the world's first half-elf, was born.
Lucien and Beren lived on the island in this way until they died and no one witnessed their death.
"What a beautiful story..." Harry looked at the sea bed under his feet, and did not expect so many stories to happen in this place hidden under the sea.
"But didn't you say Lucien has become a human? Why is their child Dior Eluhill really half-elves?"
Taurel tapped Harry's head gently and explained with a smile: "Little fool, Lucien is just destined to die, not completely becoming a human."
"So that's it... it's going to dark. I'm going to go back and rest. Goodbye, Taurel; Goodbye, Legolas; Goodbye, Uncle Thorin... See you tomorrow."
Harry walked to Ronan, and then Ronan took him back into the small world, and the sun was about to set below sea level.
The moon and stars began to shine in the air, and the entire sea was dark. At this time, the sea breeze stopped and the waves calmed down. The ship floated quietly on the mirror-like water surface. The water surface and the sky had no longer boundary. The Dabai was sailing in the sky.
Ronan excitedly raised the Verino necklace in his hand, which also shone with a white light, like a star lit up on the boat.
Ronan felt that its light was not bright enough, so he placed the candles, torches and other light sources under it. The Verino necklace absorbed these lights, and then burst out a more dazzling light, heading straight to the west.
"How is it? Do I look like Eyarrendir?" Ronan asked everyone watching the moon.
Everyone laughed, and they teased, "It's very similar, Master Ronan."
After getting the answer he wanted, Ronan also smiled and looked into the distance. In the place where the light of the Verinor necklace disappeared, the starlight on the water surface seemed particularly bright, even more prosperous than the stars in the sky.
"What is that? Sailors, we have work to do, look right ahead of us, and it seems that there is something important to discover."
Taoriel also stood up and looked at the bow of the ship curiously. The elf's excellent night vision ability also allowed her to see the secrets in the sea.
"That's... a gem?"
