There was a long table in the middle of Elrond's house. Now there were people on both sides, mostly elves, but there were guests of other races. As the local master, the Elf King sat down on the throne at the end of the long table, as usual, looking down at the crowd, with Groffendale on one side and Saruman on the other side.

Zhao Mai did not sit down, but chose to stand behind Frodo, which made the halfling very nervous. He had raised this question several times, but Zhao Mai finally did not agree. "Oh, Frodo, I was not standing. Look, my soles are still some distance from the ground."

In theory, Zhao Mai flew in, but the distance from the ground was very low, so he had to lie down to see clearly. He did not "stage" this room, nor did he eat anything here, or enjoy the drinks here. He could not come in and eat food with reserved food, which made it depressing. You should know that the elves are mainly vegetarian all day long. Although they can digest meat, they have neither reserves nor tables. In order to entertain guests from all over the world, Rivendale bought meat from the human town "Brie". That is the elves' barbecue craft! The reserved food can only be watched with eyes.

Whether it is Elrond, Grofindell or Saruman, when sitting in the upper position, his body exudes a noble aura. There are other people, although the aura is not as strong as the three, they can easily conclude that they are not ordinary people. However, no matter what the aura is, as long as they approach Zhao Mai and Frodo, they will be blocked. Zhao Mai uses his natural force to form a field. Unless he can find a way to adapt to the environmental rules of this small area, any spell and power will be affected. Doing this is very physically exhausting, but it is worth it to be able to block countless peeping gazes.

Grofindell has blonde hair, and his identity is the most special among all. Elrond is the Elf King, but not the only one in the world; Saruman is the head of the wizards and the speaker of the Saint White Council, but he is not the only wizard after all. But Grofindell is the only elves who fought against the Flame Demon of Morgoth and died bravely, resurrected in Verino, and then sent back to Middle-earth by Vera and Meyah. His power is no less than Saruman, nor is it less than the Elf King who carries the Ring of the Wind.

He looked at Zhao Mai with curious eyes and kept searching for information from his memory. Looking back now, on the banks of the Xiangshui River, whether the witch king Angma, the head of the Ring Spirit, was washed away by the river, the splashes caused by that punch would knock down all the people. It is conceivable that if the punch hit him, he would explode into a splash in the air. There is no doubt about who is he? Is there such a strong guy in the mortal world?

Elrond seemed to know something, but he did not share it with anyone, including Saruman. "That was Tverdo, the friend of the Star Elf, a very brave warrior." This was Elrond's original words. But how Tverdo became a friend of the Star Elf and how he was allowed to continue to protect Frodo because of his bravery, this is the mysterious unknown.

Many people are very interested in Zhao Mai's identity, and this interest will also be transferred to the halfling Frodo. Not everyone knows the real purpose of this meeting. Most of them just listened to the call of the elf king Elrond and came here to "discuss how to face the evil threat from the East." As for the Supreme Lord of the Ring, it is hidden below by this topic.

Zhao Mai slowly closed his eyes in front of everyone's curious eyes. This did not affect his momentum at all, but instead made people with ghosts even more worried. Originally, many people wanted to come over to meet new friends, especially halflings, which are rare outside the Kingdom of Charles, and now they never gave up their ideas. So the only new friend around Frodo is the dwarf Groyin.

Groyin once took a risk with Frodo's eldest uncle Bilbo Baggins. He was one of the twelve dwarves who took back Irube. Frodo said his admiration, and Groyin introduced his son. "I'll let Jinli come to you later. You younger generations should know each other. He is much stronger and stronger than me back then, and the axe is better. This time I took him to the elves to see the world. Alas, we secretly walked away last time, and we can't do this this time."

After chatting for a while, the topic soon turned to the current situation in Middle-earth. Mordor had successfully carried out several rounds of plunder, and the surrounding races and kingdoms were all hit. It is said that a new round of attacks is brewing, and everyone is panic.

"Be careful that Irube (Lonely Mountain), Zoro will attack there. He needs wealth, enough steel and equipment. Irube is his best choice." Zhao Mai suddenly opened his eyes and inserted a sentence. "The evil in the dark forest is spreading, and it is difficult to block the flanks of the orcs' northward road. Help the elves..."

"Maybe Rivendell's elves are our friends. King Elrond once helped us interpret the map and also welcomed us warmly. But the elves in the dark forest are another matter." Groyin was a little surprised. He thought Zhao Mai couldn't speak. "Where are elves, elves?"

"Tell you a little secret, I'm not an elf." Zhao Mai blinked and stopped talking again.

"It's mysterious, and the elf's temper is so strange!" The dwarf looked at Frodo: "Oh, where did you just say?"

“Look for the whereabouts of Bahrain.”

"Oh, yes. If there is good news, there is bad news." Groyin sighed, "To be fair, everyone is actually quite busy, elves, humans, wizards. Look over there, the knights of Gondor and the knights of Rohan. Why do humans use the same word? How troublesome! Humans are being beaten, and elves are being beaten. We dwarves are not bad, at least beat the orcs well! The only one who has not been beaten is probably the wizard. Compared to Saruman in the white robe, I still prefer Gandalf in the gray robe. It is not because I and I took the risk together to regain the dwarf's hometown Irube, but because he is more kind and kind, and more equal and friendly to us. But... sometimes he always doesn't know where to go, but it seems that he can always appear in time when needed."

Can this time appear in time? Zhao Mai thought of the arrogant Saruman. If he had not had enough confidence, he would definitely not have come to Elrond's meeting. What was Gandalf like? If it weren't for him, how could there be a Protective Alliance?

At present, only Frodo can carry the Supreme Lord Ring, which is probably difficult for others to bear. Zhao Mai has felt the summoning of the Supreme Lord Ring many times, and he also longs for using the Lord Ring to do good things, such as improving the environment, improving education, and benefiting the whole world. Fortunately, he knows that this world is just a parallel world, and all the ideas of staying to benefit the world may be problematic. Moreover, his world will is almost zero, and he is a "nameless junior" in this venue, and the Lord Ring does not spend much effort on him.

So, who is being affected?
