"Drive!" The rapid sound of horse hooves broke the tranquility of Hobbiton, and 12 fully armed knights appeared on the paths of Hobbiton.
The young knight scolded his retinue: "Casro, are you sure this is the way?"
"Yes, uh, I mean it should be...after all, you know my lord...the country roads here are too winding." The dragon knight Kaslo hesitated.
"What the hell! Are you all trash?" Roland restrained himself from swearing.
"Oh, I'm sorry, brothers, that's not what I meant." Roland, realizing that he had used the wrong words, quickly apologized.
"Let's continue asking for directions and see where this damn Bag End is?" Roland said dejectedly.
……
"Hi! Excuse me, friend, do you know where Bilbo Baggins lives?" Roland asked everyone passing by.
After asking to no avail, Roland couldn't help complaining: "Who the hell said Hobbits are enthusiastic?"
"Hello, do you know Bilbo Baggins?" Roland asked a hobbit sitting in the yard by the road.
"Baggins? Why are you looking for him?" the young man asked in surprise.
"Well, because... well, the situation is that after a while, a group of dwarves and a wizard will find him, and I want to find that group of dwarves!" Roland explained.
"Well, I am, but the dwarf didn't see it, but a wizard came today. He wants me to go on an adventure with him. What's even more funny is that he wants me to be a snitch! I don't know how to fight at all!" Bilbo
·Baggins explained.
"Ah this..." Roland was dumbfounded. He was really good at pinching at this time. Thinking of this, Roland couldn't help but look at Bilber sympathetically, thinking that his inventory would be terrible tonight... 13 dwarves would be able to do it tonight.
Empty his storage room.
Roland glanced at the corner of his door and said to him with a smile: "Well, Mr. Baggins, see you in the evening."
"Um, sir, you mean you will come to my place as a guest in the evening?" Bilbo said in surprise.
"Yes, I just need to prepare food for myself. My followers won't come. Oh, by the way, my name is Roland!" Roland smiled friendly.
"Okay, sir, welcome to your visit in the evening."
……
"The Bond of Destiny: Achieved! Rewards 90 trainee knights! They can be summoned at any time." The Lord of the Rings that had been dormant for a long time in Roland's hand finally came to life.
"90 knights... plus these 10! There are a hundred trainee knights, and now a knight order has come together." Roland wanted to laugh at this moment.
After finding a corner and summoning the knights, Roland quickly used the gold coins awarded by the system to build a larger hotel, ready to be used for his followers to spend the night.
The crisp sound of horse hoofbeats came, and Roland couldn't help but sigh that the efficiency of the system was very high, and he had no worries. These knights all came from the wasteland, and no one knew that they were summoned.
Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Roland asked Castro to arrange for the knights under his command while he went to the banquet.
……
"Ding ding ding!" Roland rang the doorbell of Bag End.
"Boom!" As soon as the door opened, the aroma of food mixed with various random sounds came. It was obvious that the dwarves had already started to get together...
Roland couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes when he looked at the mess in the house. Just when he was wondering whether to step in, he lowered his head and saw Bilbo's frustrated eyes.
"Mr. Roland, do you know something...and the food I'm sorry to prepare for you..." Mr. Baggins said awkwardly.
"It's okay Bilbo, it's okay." Roland comforted Baggins, and then stepped in.
As soon as he entered the door, Roland recognized Gandalf. After all, the robe and staff clearly betrayed his identity.
"Dear Mr. Gandalf, hello!" Roland greeted.
"Should I call you Thorin Oakenshield or should I call you King Under the Mountain?" Roland looked at the king among the dwarves and said calmly.
Roland's words obviously stimulated Thorin, and he stood up with his fists clenched.
"Young man, I can't see through you..." Gandalf said in surprise.
Roland smiled faintly without comment. He looked at Thorin and asked: "You are of the bloodline of Turin, the grandson of Thor, and the son of Thorn. Can you still be called the king under the mountain now?"
"Bang!" Thorin slapped the table and was about to jump out and fight Roland. Everyone quickly stopped him, and his nephew Kili stood up: "Sir, excuse me, did you come here on purpose to cause trouble?" The rest
The dwarves also looked at him with unkind expressions, only Gandalf looked at him thoughtfully.
"Looking for trouble? You are not worthy yet. I just don't want to see the end of the Turin bloodline!" Roland is familiar with the plot direction. Even if they can win, the Turin bloodline will definitely end.
With the help of the Lord of the Rings, Roland successfully sensed everyone present. Except for Thorin, who is a berserker, everyone else is a trainee warrior or warrior. This lineup is not enough for Roland's knights to charge.
The professional levels of warriors are: trainee warrior, warrior, berserker, commander, general and finally the ultimate professional overlord!
"Fart!"
"Nonsense!"
Everyone accused Roland one after another, and Gandalf looked at Roland with more and more surprise.
"That's enough! Tell me your purpose!" Thorin suddenly shouted to stop his men's accusations.
"Happy, worthy of being a descendant of Turin, I am the leader of the Holy Knights. Now I need to find a territory to lead my knights to settle down, so you know... I need money!" Roland said calmly!
own demands.
"What? Knights!"
"Oh my god! He actually has a knighthood..."
All the dwarves were extremely surprised. Only Gandalf looked more and more confused.
"Mr. Roland! This joke is not funny! Do you know under what circumstances can we be called a knight?" Thorin asked solemnly.
"Of course, my command is just the weakest knight order, with 100 apprentice knights and a knight commander." Roland said with a proud look.
"So...what do you mean..." Thorin's tone softened. After all, we all have common interests and everything can be discussed.
"I will lead my knights to the war! I will escort you all the way to the Lonely Mountain! And you need to pay a commission. If there are casualties, you will also need to pay a pension. Of course, if you fail to recapture Erebor in the end... then
You don't have to pay anything!" Roland's eyes were filled with a flame called ambition.
"If you agree, then I can summon my followers now!" Roland continued.
Thorin lowered his head and meditated. Gandalf pulled him quietly and whispered in his ear: "Promise him, there are too many risks along the way, and the protection of a knight order can make us arrive more safely."
”
After hearing Gandalf's whisper, Thorin nodded, raised his head and said loudly: "Mr. Roland, I will draft the contract now."
After saying that, he started writing the contract with his dwarves, and then he saw a contract that was longer than the Snitch contract that Mr. Baggins had received, and it was a large volume...
"Then, I wish our expedition goes well!" After Roland signed the contract, he put it away and nodded to everyone, then declined Bilbo's offer to stay and walked out.
"By the way, I will wait for you at the edge of the forest tomorrow morning!" Roland's voice came from afar.
