The flames of Mount Doom flowed down the gap in the crater, leaving a red mark on the black earth, and finally flowed into the dark tunnel that was unknown how deep it was.
"Cheng, how deep is that tunnel? Is it true that you can run in it all day without reaching the end? Did you pursue Sauron down there and finally kill him completely?" One was only about one meter tall.
, the handsome-looking hobbit said to Cheng Peng, who was controlling the magma with his true energy and washing the golden armor on the magic stand over and over again, at a distance from the magma, "That must be a very exciting story!"
"Although Frodo may not want to recall it, I think at least Sam would be willing to tell you about that thrilling journey and the chase in the tunnel - didn't he do that?" Cheng Peng was not disgusted.
These are interesting little guys, but he is very worried that the little guy will lose his balance and fall down because of dancing. There are many cracks in the ground nearby, and underneath there is terrible earth core magma. In this kind of magma, even the Supreme Demon
The ring will also be destroyed. If a hobbit falls, it will turn into ashes in an instant.
He didn't want this to happen. Pippin managed to survive the battle between the coalition forces against the Orcs. It would be such a tragedy if he died here!
However, the hobbit's patience was really admirable. Pippin kept chattering, and eventually even Cheng Peng couldn't bear it and had to pause his work to tell this curious ghost about the original battle.
"To be honest, I really don't understand why you care so much about our affairs." Returning to the temporary stone house, he used his zhenqi to boil a pot of bitter tea. This bitter tea was not delicious at all, but it was okay.
To help people stay awake better, it is necessary to stay awake on this volcano full of chaos.
Starting with that sentence, Cheng Peng, who had been living in seclusion in Mount Doom for nearly two months, recounted that experience.
"You know, I am a foreigner. We foreigners are travelers who travel through various worlds. Whenever we find something big happening in a certain world, we will swarm in and help those who we think are right.
One side."
"Yes, there were many strangers in the coalition army back then! They were the most heroic warriors!" Pippin said happily, "They saved my life more than once!"
"Because it is difficult for us to truly die, it is easy to understand that we are not afraid of death. For example, Sauron, as a Maia, also finds it difficult to truly die, so he is not afraid of death either."
"But he is afraid of losing power and status!"
"Yes, what he is afraid of is losing his majesty and strength, which is why he sent all kinds of monsters to intercept the Fellowship of the Ring." Cheng Peng nodded and divided the bitter tea that had been brewed.
He ordered a cup for Pippin, "When I came to this world, I heard from a friend named Dongliu that the Fellowship of the Ring was surrounded by a large group of monsters. He and many people had been fighting hard, but faced
Facing an endless tide of monsters, they ultimately failed."
"Many people died in that battle, and Frodo and Sam were very sad when they mentioned it." Pippin's face wrinkled, not sure whether it was because of sadness or the bitter tea.
Cheng Peng also took a sip slowly, letting the bitter taste that seemed to make even his soul scream slowly melt away on his tongue. The sense of chaos caused by working in the smoke of magma for a long time suddenly receded.
My mind is clear again.
"My speed is very fast, and I am one of the best even among the aliens, so I set off immediately after getting the news. Maybe it was because of luck, or maybe because of fate, in short, I found Flo
Do and Sam were being chased by the Ringwraiths sent by Sauron. Their companions were Faramir, the second son of Denethor, the regent of Gondor - the current Prime Minister of Gondor. At that time, he was just a guerrilla captain, leading a group of companies.
The young men, who lacked armor and weapons, persisted in resisting Sauron's army. Faramir protected them all the way and insisted on heading towards Mount Doom, but they were not as fast as the Ringwraiths and were finally overtaken..."
"And you arrived at that time! Sam said that they were almost desperate at that time. Frodo asked Faramir to use the power of the Ring more than once, but Faramir always refused. He would rather die than surrender.
to temptation."
"After that battle, he looked no better than a dead man. I remember when Frodo helped him clean his wounds, he found sixteen bleeding places on his body." Cheng Peng sighed,
He praised, "He is indeed a good man!"
Pippin obviously knew about this battle, so he didn't care about Faramir's affairs, and asked hurriedly: "What happened next?"
"Later... I took over the task of escorting Frodo and Sam. We passed through the Dead Swamp and came to this mountain, and then crossed it again and came here, and threw the Lord of the Rings into the crater.
." Cheng Peng raised his hand and pointed to the circular pass at the highest point of the mountain range, "It was thrown in from there."
"You're speaking too briefly!" Pippin expressed dissatisfaction with Cheng Peng's excessive conciseness. "Didn't you encounter dangers and difficulties along the way?"
"Of course there are dangers and difficulties." Cheng Peng sighed, regretting that he could not pass easily. "When we were in the Death Swamp, we were once surrounded by harpies and vampires. We fought and advanced.
The fight lasted from dusk to early morning. In that battle, Sam bought fourteen daggers, and Frodo bought nine shields - luckily I brought enough equipment."
A fierce battle that lasted for more than ten hours was an understatement in his mouth, as if it was not worth mentioning, but Pippin had seen how proud Sam and Frodo were when they talked about that fierce battle.
Having experienced war firsthand, he also knew very well how difficult it was to be besieged by the enemy for more than ten hours!
"After breaking through the swamp, the vampires still chased us every night, so we could only hide in day and night. It was not until my friends arrived later that they could no longer cause us trouble."
"There are a lot of orcs living in this mountain range. They seem to be endless. As long as you are not careful, they will come out from nowhere and roar. They don't know what death is at all, they are just crazy.
Ground attack." Thinking of those demonized orcs with both strength and bravery, Cheng Peng couldn't help but sigh, "Thanks to them, we suffered heavy losses. The more than 200 people who gathered at the beginning gradually lost all, and finally we were able to
Less than ten people came to this volcano."
"Those two hundred people are very powerful, right? I remember a foreigner friend said that because the most powerful men have gone to help escort Frodo to destroy the Lord of the Rings, the strength on the battlefield is somewhat insufficient."
"Yes... they are all powerful... all six-stars..." Cheng Peng took another sip of bitter tea, thinking about the terrifying battle back then, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Even the weakest one is enough to become an ordinary person."
The so-called 'hero'. But under the endless intrusion and attacks of the orc army - by the way, all kinds of monsters appeared in the end, it was like an encyclopedia of monsters!"
"But you finally arrived!"
"That's right, they can't stop us!" Cheng Peng's eyes shone with light, and the fighting spirit on his body turned into a flame-like aura, but he put it away in just a moment, "We are here, and Sauron has also brought
With his men, he left the Barado Fortress and came here to wait for us."
"I remember that battle. At that time, almost everyone among the aliens was talking about it, and then they set off in a hurry. At first there were three or five, then ten or eight, and then in groups
Form a team and form a mighty army - we also want to go, but Aragorn objects, saying that we lack the speed of movement like the aliens, and the orc army in front of us also needs to be dealt with."
"It was a difficult battle. It lasted for two days. Tens of thousands of players died without even a fraction left. In the end, Sauron was defeated, all his evil troops were wiped out, and the Supreme Lord of the Rings was destroyed in front of him.
Thrown into a volcano."
“It’s amazing!”
"Yeah...that's great!" Cheng Peng smiled and raised the teacup as if to toast, "After the Supreme Lord of the Rings was destroyed, Solo lost his magic power. Because he is Maia who can be regarded as a god, he
He was not eliminated, but turned into an evil ghost and escaped to who knows where."
"But the battle isn't over yet? I remember Sam said that in the end you eliminated him underground."
Cheng Peng nodded and continued: "We originally thought that everything was over and our companions had dispersed. Since I have been relatively free recently, I escorted Frodo and Sam home together with a few people who were also very free. But it turned out that
That night, one of Sauron's subordinates stole one of my treasures - it was an evil treasure from another world, a yellow gem equivalent to the life force of hundreds of people."
"What's the use of the gem?" Pippin asked curiously.
"It was made by a demon king who used coercion to extract the life force of a strong man. It can provide a huge amount of energy and is said to make people immortal. But it should be just a legend, because the demon king finally died in front of me and my friends.
Under the siege, his gem became my trophy." Cheng Peng said lightly, "God knows how Sauron knew about it, but it used the power of this gem to resurrect smoothly."
Pippin was startled and asked hurriedly: "What should we do?"
"What should we do? Fight!" Cheng Peng replied, "We fought from night to morning and killed his servants. It was only then that Sauron discovered that because he used treasures from another world to resurrect, he was a Maiden.
Ya's characteristics have been damaged, which means that he has probably lost his immortality."
"This discovery made him lose his courage. He who was originally stronger than us seemed weak when facing death, and turned around and ran away. We chased him closely, chasing him along the cave on the mountain, and in the dark
We chased him all the way inside the cave for three days, and finally caught up with him in the deep underground and killed him there. This time he never came back to life."
Cheng Peng took another sip of bitter tea: "We were exhausted. It took us five days to crawl out of the ground, and because of Sauron's evil magic, all the food was damaged... In the end, everyone
When I came out, my eyes were so hungry that my eyes were green. I guess the reason they didn't want to talk about it was because they didn't want to recall those five days of hunger and thirst..."
Pippin's eyes lit up as he listened, and he kept clicking his tongue in admiration, while Cheng Peng, who had finished telling the story, was holding a tea cup and staring at the ring-shaped crater in the distance with some trance.
Originally, the Demon King Sauron's Barad-Door Fortress could still be seen on its side, but now the fortress has completely collapsed - the original fierce battle was just like a dream...
“But it’s really enjoyable!”
