Chapter 2696 Forbidden (Today Is Still a Day of Light Snow)
Lord of the Rings.
This is a great fantasy work, and it is also regarded as the originator of modern fantasy literature. Of course, the main line of the story itself is very simple. In order to fight against the evil dark tyrant Sauron and prevent his plot from succeeding, the wizard Gandalf summoned a group of people to take the Supreme Lord of the Rings to the Doomsday Volcano to destroy it. As long as the Supreme Lord of the Rings is destroyed, Then it will be able to weaken Sauron's power, then defeat him, and save the entire Middle Continent from Sauron's clutches.
Of course, any story is bound to be controversial, such as "Lord of the Rings", whether after reading the novel or the movie, many people will have a question.
That's why this group of people insist on walking to Mount Doom? Isn't there a race like the Great Eagle that can fly? Just let the big eagle take them to the Doomsday Volcano, and then throw them down, wouldn't it be over?
This question is not answered in the original book, because no matter which side seems to be out of their minds, no one has ever raised this request or idea.
Of course, similar questions also appeared in Journey to the West, and many readers also asked, Sun Wukong made a somersault for thousands of miles, as if going to the west and returning home, why did he have to walk such a long way with Tang Seng?
Strictly speaking, however, this question is actually easy to answer. After all, Tang Seng’s study of scriptures is a practice and test, and walking to learn scriptures is to prove his sincerity. Besides, Tang Seng's success in learning the scriptures has little impact on the world (of course, from a certain point of view, it is better to be unsuccessful).
But the Lord of the Rings is different. If you fail, the whole of Central Continent will be unlucky. There is no question of sincerity.
Of course, in addition to this, some people will ask why Sauron is so awesome, why didn't he fill up the Doomsday Volcano, as long as the crater is blocked, then their group of people came for nothing......
In novels and movies, this may be required by the game, but in reality, this may be part of the setting.
Of course, many Lord of the Rings readers also gave their explanations—for example, the Lord of the Rings can bewitch people, and the big eagle may also be bewitched by the Lord of the Rings, and then find a place to throw the hobbit away, and take the Lord of the Rings to find him. Long. Moreover, the ring spirits will also fly in the air on monster beasts, the big eagle is obviously not the opponent of the ring spirits, etc...
This is probably the reason why the Lightning fell, because all flying vehicles are currently prohibited in this world in principle. After all, if the Lightning is on the move, all troubles will be settled for you in three minutes.
Considering that the Lord of the Rings is the core theme of this world, everything around the Lord of the Rings has the highest priority—of course, Fang Zheng can resist if he wants to, but in this way, it is difficult to say whether it is Sauron or himself who is against the world. The damage done was even greater.
"...So, this is not something wrong with the battleship you made."
Fangzheng explained to the frowning little girls in front of him, and the latter also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this explanation. After all, just now Tita, Tio and Ling have been desperately looking for the cause of the failure, and no one knows why they suddenly fell when they were fine.
"So the battleship itself is fine, right? Big brother?"
"Well, it's not you who are wrong, but the world."
Facing Ling's question, Fang Zheng smiled and patted her head. In fact, Fangzheng experienced a similar thing once at the third coordinate point. At that time, the City of the Dead lacked fragments of the information interaction module of the airborne vehicle, causing Fangzheng's void glow ship to fall directly. The reason is basically the same as here. .
"So what should we do next, is there no way to fly anymore?"
Tita asked with some unease, after all, the Lightning is their brainchild, and it would be unreconciled to say that it was scrapped just like that.
"No, if my guess is correct, this should only be a temporary one, and it should be fine after a while."
After all, the biggest reason for this "air ban" is the Lord of the Rings, so as long as the Guardians of the Rings team arrives at the Doomsday Volcano and throws the Supreme Lord of the Rings into the volcano, then nothing will happen, and you and others can continue to set off.
But before that... They still have to repair the entire battleship. Although the recoil mode was turned on before the fall to resist the impact damage, some damage still needs to be repaired. Of course, this is definitely for the little girls. no problem.
After instructing them to repair the damage of the Lightning as soon as possible, Fang Zheng stepped out of the battleship again. At this time, he found that there was another group of human cavalry not far away. They were wearing the same armor. The man in charge was talking to the previous commander. What, then the two walked up to Fangzheng and bowed to him.
"Hello, Your Highness, what else can I do?"
Fang Zheng looked at the previous commander and asked, he had already learned from the other party's self-introduction that the commander he had rescued before was Theojed, the prince of Rohan. Of course, Fang Zheng had no impression of this man. That's it...
When it comes to European and American series, he basically belongs to the category of face blindness, and the only one he can barely remember is the elf prince. As for the other human characters, to be honest, they all look about the same in Fangzheng's eyes, with a burly figure and long hair , with a beard... There were several times when he watched the movie and couldn't recognize who was who.
At least the elf prince doesn't have a beard.
"Mr. Fangzheng, we are about to leave for Dusseld, USA. What are your plans for the future?"
"In my case... let's fix this thing first."
Fangzheng turned his head, glanced at the Lightning behind him, and shrugged helplessly at Theo Jade in front of him.
"After all, you have seen it too. This thing fell really badly."
"Hehe, I have never seen such a creation..."
Having said this, the prince hesitated for a moment, exchanged glances with the man beside him, and looked at Fangzheng again.
"Mr. Fangzheng, may I ask... are you a wizard?"
"I know a little bit of magic."
Fangzheng waved his hand and looked at him curiously. After hearing Fangzheng's answer, the latter immediately burst into joy.
"Then, Mr. Fangzheng, we have something to ask for your help..."
According to what the prince said, their country is now being attacked by half-orc legions, and all signs indicate that these half-orc legions come from the white robe Saruman. He and his friends have spoken to the king several times against these orc legions. But the king didn't know whether it was because he was poisoned or controlled by the white-robed wizard, and he became very strange. This also caused a headache for the two of them. After all, when it comes to this kind of mysterious knowledge, generally only wizards can deal with it.
But on this continent, wizards are quite rare, and as warriors, even if they want to intervene, they don't know what to do.
However, Fangzheng's appearance gave the prince hope. Anyway, he defeated those half-orcs and healed his own wounds. No matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like Saruman and his gang. And judging from the huge metal creation behind him, this young man is likely to possess very powerful strength.
Although it was a bit risky, but considering that his father was getting increasingly haggard and looked like a disabled person, even though he knew it was reckless, the prince could only grit his teeth and give it a try.
"Ok……………"
After listening to the prince's narration, Fangzheng thought for a moment. He had a little impression of Saruman, and he seemed to have a little impression of the king, but the Lord of the Rings Founder had only watched the movie after all, and it was many years ago.
But anyway, it's not the main line for Saruman, so it doesn't matter.
"of course can."
"Very good."
Seeing that Fangzheng readily agreed, the prince was also relieved, and then he looked at the Lightning behind Fangzheng in embarrassment.
"So, how do you deal with this...? With all due respect, Saruman's army is not far from here. Although you have repelled them before, those guys will definitely attack again."
"Don't worry about it, I've already thought about it."
While talking, Fangzheng took out his personal terminal.
"Ling, switch to the ground mobile system."
"Hey? Do you want to use that? Big brother? Didn't you say it can't be started?"
"It's just that you can't fly. If you run on the ground, it's fine."
"I see, it's a strange place."
After the communication was over, Fangzheng took a few steps back, and the prince and the man beside him also looked at everything in front of them suspiciously, but soon, what happened next surprised them.
"Boom, boom, boom!!!"
In front of everyone, the giant metal bird that was as huge as a palace suddenly began to tremble, and then its two wings that were stretched out quickly shrank and closed. At the same time, several gigantic wheels suddenly appeared under the body of the giant metal bird. Driven by them, the giant metal bird turned around slowly and drove towards the direction of itself and the others. Enter.
"Very well, everything is fine."
Seeing this scene, Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction. Fortunately, to be on the safe side and to adapt to various environments, Ling and Tida installed accessories for ground and deep sea, otherwise they would really have to Lie down. But now... just walk around on the ground, the rules of your world should not control me.
Thinking of this, the corners of Fangzheng's mouth twitched slightly, then he turned around and gestured to the two men behind him.
"Okay, two, let's go."
In this way, the prince marched towards the royal city of Rohan with his remaining soldiers and the reinforcements who came after hearing the news. However, although he escaped from the half-orc army, what he saw now still made him feel ashamed. He was quite surprised.
"I didn't expect that wizards could create such powerful things."
Riding a horse and walking beside the giant metal bird, the prince couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he saw the huge monster in front of him. To know that things are so huge, completely beyond his imagination. Even if it is just a wheel, it is taller than itself on a horse. Not only that, this giant metal bird is not afraid of any terrain at all, no matter whether it is a ravine, a river, or a solid tree in front of it, in its It was as if there was nothing in front of him, completely crushed into a flat ground.
This is like an unstoppable giant monster. I am afraid that the cavalry of the entire Rohan Kingdom will be completely vulnerable to it.
"Is this really something wizards can do?"
Beside the prince, Aikenbrand put forward his thoughts in doubt. It is not that he has never seen a wizard, whether it is Gandalf or Saruman, but the young man seems to be different from them. , and wizards can indeed use powerful and mysterious powers, but this... No matter how he looks at it, it doesn't feel like it can be created by wizards.
If Saruman possessed this kind of power, what kind of conspiracy and tricks would he have used? No one in the whole of Rohan could stop his attack.
"Anyway, we've run out of options."
Faced with the doubts from his friend and companion, the prince looked solemn.
"The attack of the half-orcs has reached the point of no delay, but the father is becoming more and more powerless at this moment. We can't find out why the original heroic father has become what he is now. The only thing we can think of is witchcraft. Influence. But Gandalf does not know where it is yet, and although this gentleman looks young, he wiped out those half-orc legions very easily, and healed my wounds. I think he should No villain is right. In any case, the only thing to do is try."
Aikenbrand seemed a little puzzled by the prince's answer. After all, he did not witness the scene of those half-orcs being swallowed by flames, nor did he see the scene where the prince's seriously injured body healed instantly. Therefore, for that young man, Aikenbrand Rand was still a little uneasy.
After all, aren't wizards generally old men with white beards? Although it is indeed impossible for elves to tell their age from their appearance, by looking at him, you can tell that the man is a human being, not an elf. Even if he is a wizard, he doesn't feel as wise as Gandalf or Saruman.
But anyway...
At this moment, everyone had already walked out of the forest, looking at the castle in the distance, Eichenbrand also sighed.
As the prince said, I am afraid there are not many choices now.
