Chapter 207 New Era

Noratu rushed into Samas Naur, everything around him was collapsing, huge boulders fell from the top of the cave, deadly flames burst out from the ground, and all the evil and power left by Sauron here were gone. Frodo Baggins, the hobbit of the Shire, did things that no wise man greater than himself could do.

"Frodo," cried the young Prince, looking for him in the land of fire and ruin, and with sorrow and pity he thought him dead.

"I'm here," said a faint voice.

Noratu was extremely surprised. He stood at the end of the stone platform and looked down. "O Elberis!" he called after the stars, and found Frodo hanging with one hand on a ledge of rock, pale and weary.

There was peace in his eyes now, no strained will, no madness, no fear of any kind.His burden has been lifted.The dear hobbit of the Shire's happy days is back.

"Greetings, son of Turka, have you come to witness the last journey of Frodo Baggins of the Shire?" said Frodo. , my task is done, but I shall see no more of the Shire! Come, tell Bilbo my story, and Sam, and all the hobbits, where I have overcome Fate!"

"You can tell them by yourself." A smile flickered on the corner of Noratu's mouth. He dexterously turned down the stone platform of Sammasnaul, and walked unbelievably through the rock cracks and flames, and came to Frodo's side.Then he seized Frodo's belt with one hand, and with one hand only, he climbed up with effort.

They really escaped before the stone platform collapsed, but Galadriel's crystal bottle slipped from Frodo's hand and fell into the scorching lava.Its work was done, and Frodo had no time to regret, and Noratu took him by the hand and fled from the hellish place.

"Smaug!"

Noratu called out the dragon at the door. At this time, the volcano was shaking, and a huge cloud of smoke and steam spewed out from Samas Naur. The cone of the volcano was torn apart, and a large stream of magma gushed out, With a thunderous sound, it slowly poured down from the east side of the mountain.

Smaug fell from the sky, and fell before them.It was blind in one eye, its left wing was bleeding, and its dark red scales were broken, which showed how fierce the battle with the blue-robed wizard was.Frodo and Noratul mounted the dragon's back, and left at the last moment.

They flew over Udun and Gorgoroth, and saw the whole land below cracking and roaring, and behind them Mount Doom was burning violently, spewing fire.All the fallen human beings summoned by Sauron fled frantically. They were all leaderless and running around. Some committed suicide, some jumped into deep pits, and some wailed and fled back to caves and hide in dark places far away from hope. stand up.

"At this moment, when all things are at an end," said Frodo, "I am glad to have you with me, Lord Noratul."

"Yes, Frodo, the journey is over," said Noratu, smiling, and holding him gently to his chest, "what a story we have been part of. And you have done well, and again It can't be better, no matter how great a hero is, he won't be more admirable than what you have done."

So Frodo Baggins of the Shire closed his eyes exhaustedly, and walked away from the fire and darkness.

Meanwhile, in Minas Tirith.

The moment the ring was destroyed, Sauron felt great fear.His immortal essence was torn apart, his strength was fading, and for a moment, he couldn't even maintain the perfect body that was used to confuse people: he knelt before the tower of Exelion, the hatred in his eyes was shocking, The perfect figure began to crumble, and a terrifying black figure appeared in front of the eyes of the Western generals.Behold, he has flaming eyes, a tall tower-like body, and is covered with iron armor that emits ominous black air. The breath he exhales is poisonous and deadly; Cruel Gorshaul!

"No, it's impossible." Sauron yelled hoarsely, feeling furious and terrified at the Son of Turka and his warriors in front of him, astonished at his own failure.

"I'm not going to fail again, at least not this time."

It is said that at that moment, Sauron made a third mistake: he swung a huge hammer in an attempt to resist; but Aratu is now in full swing, and the blessings of the Western Villas fell on him, making Turka The Son of God seemed so sacred and invincible.

He dodged Sauron's hammer, let it fall to the ground in vain, and then uttered the loudest dragon roar so far at Sauron, who had shown a terrifying figure--Aragorn and Orofenwe were even in this terrible place. They fell to the ground amid the roar, their eyes could not see, their hands and feet could not move, their heads were hit by boulders, and they almost died; many legends in later generations said that it was said by the Valar through the mouth of Alatu:

The Tower of Exelian even instantly turned into powder amidst the roar, and the opposite Mount Domingruin also collapsed in the roar, and the terrifying mountain body fell from the peak, smashing all the buildings on the highest floor of the White City , The terrible earthquake and smoke even spread thousands of miles away.

So Sauron was defeated, just as he was shot down by Ionwe in the First Age.

bang.

His iron crown fell to the ground, his evil armor shattered, his ambition, his atrocities were all destroyed at this moment, his proud and terrifying form disappeared in the afterglow of the setting sun, but it still maintained a certain appearance ;Aratur Arakano's icy sword reached his chest, achieving supreme glory.

"You have failed, Sauron, once more!" he said.

And at the moment when Sauron failed, all the forces under his command felt it, and the army galloping from Mordor and Harald in the south lost control in an instant, behold!The enemy is fleeing—when death strikes the bloated queen who breeds and rules them all in the anthill, the colony will wander mindlessly, aimlessly, and die powerless—Sauron, with fear and spells, Ruled them, but now the ring of the Dark Lord, his power has disappeared with the wind like dust, and those humans controlled by him woke up, they fled in all directions, and routed eastward!

Only those who have served evil the deepest and longest and who hate the West are still human beings who are proud and brave. Now it is their turn to cheer up and fight desperately.They wanted Osgilias to run aggressively, or hid in the forest of Ilysian, and continued to do evil.

Gray robe wizard Gandalf, oh no, it should be said that Maia Olorin witnessed all this in shock.When Sauron's defeat was inevitable, and when the sword of the young Turka's son came to the Lord's chest, all that was about Valinor came back to Gandalf, and he became the Holy Spirit of Manwë; He stepped forward and restrained the defeated Demon Lord with the power that belonged to Maija, "It's over, Sauron, you will be judged, three epochs have been discussed about your detention in Velimar, this time You can't be absent any longer," he said.

Sauron was deeply humiliated, and he did not want to go back to accept the punishment of Vera in such a humiliating situation. He might have to pay years of hard labor to prove his good intentions; even, his fate might be the same as his old one. Like the master of the sun, he was thrown out of the gate of night, and could never return to Arda.

But Vera defeated him with the help of Turka's son, and he lost his strength and could no longer resist; so, for the sake of Arda's countless years, the demon king shamelessly begged for mercy, and vowed to abandon all past evil deeds .

He said: "I will admit defeat, but is it not an unfair battle, as I have seen? The Valar are high above, but young Celebrion uses their power, so even if I admit defeat, I will not fight. Not sincerely."

But at that time, the bondage of the oath had left Aratu's body, and calmness returned to his heart. Aratu saw through Sauron's tricks, and he said: "Your clever words can be saved until the time of judgment, and you betrayed the master." , Deceiver! But I doubt you will ever be able to convince the Soulmaster, for you have never had fairness nor really understood it."

"The Great King and Mandos will judge you fairly, Sauron." Maia Olorin also said, "In any case, your days of evil are over today!"

So Sauron became trembling with anger and fear.

Perhaps, some people will be dissatisfied with this ending. The injustice that Sauron has caused for the Central Continent is too numerous to write down, and his evil deeds may not be able to be undone even if it takes an era.But we should not forget that it is the Villars who have the power to judge him. It is the asylum and blessing of the mighty in the west that the young Turka twins can defeat the blue-robed wizard and Sauron successively.

Moreover, the Villas also need to interrogate Sauron about the master behind him. Therefore, at this moment, the fate of Sauron has actually changed.

In fact, when the news of the Demon Lord's defeat came, the entire Pelennor Plain erupted in deafening cheers.All the people were laughing and crying because the war was over.At least for now.

They called the king's name, and Aragorn and Thorongil were most mentioned;
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the elves quietly watched the humans cheering for victory, the tree people shouting, and the dwarves waving their axes and hammers excitedly, like beautiful sculptures.

In the midst of their laughter and tears, the news of the battle of Minas Tirith and the destruction of the weapons of the Demon Lord spread like the wind to all parts of Gondor, from Minglimen to Pinnath Kerin and the distant coastal areas. , everyone who could come to Baicheng hastened to come.

From ruined Dol Amroth came the most skillful harpist in all lands, from Andrast came musicians with violins, flutes, and silver horns, from Erech and Lamedon came drummers Drummers, and singers with clear voices in the valley of Lebennen.

They were all the people who hid in the mountains and remote countryside when Sauron did harm to Gondor.Now when they heard that the demon king was defeated, they sang loudly with joy, and they returned home loaded with flowers.

The eagle Whitehill flew to Edoras and told the news of the victory to Faramir who stayed behind-he woke up on the fifth day after Aratu and the others left, and has been with King Theoden and his The niece lived together, and it cried:
Sing for joy, people of Edoras,
Sauron has failed forever,
The weapons of the Demon King have also been destroyed.

Rejoice and rejoice, sons of Eorl,

Your waiting was not in vain,
Orodruin has collapsed,

The ring-bearer and Caledorion have completed their mission,

The Southern War was won.

Sing and rejoice, people of the Westlands,
The king of men will return,
and live among you,
Generations.

The dry white tree will be born again,
He will replant in the old capital,
That is the big city in the river.

Sing for joy, peoples!

Then the people of Rohirr sang for joy, and all their despair and sorrow left them. Faramir even got up from his bed, and he said to the white princess of Rohan who took care of him: "The eagle brings the news of victory, Now, it's time for me to go back, to my hometown of Gondor, because the king's throne is about to usher in a real master, and the Hurin family should not miss this grand event."

Eowyn couldn't dispel his obsession, so he had to let him go.

And a few days later came riders from Cael Andros, riding fast, and they brought news of what had been done.So King Theoden and Eowyn also set off for Gondor in the south, because messengers brought news that the king was about to ascend the throne.As the only southern human kingdom in the new era, Rohir people and Gondor humans have too many commonalities and needs, and a new covenant is what they hope for.

Elrond of Rivendell also had news.Elrond, who controlled Via, the Ring of Qi among the Three Rings of the Elves, sighed the moment the Supreme Ring was destroyed: "A new era has begun! The days of Do, Sindar, and Murikundi in Middle-earth are counting down!"

Glorfindel agreed, saying: "My last battle in Middle-earth was in the North, and it is time to finish the old unfinished battles, after which I will return to the West and never return."

So, they rode on white horses, led many elves and nobles, set off from the deep valley, and headed south.

Pippin and Merry were astonished to see all the Elves in action.He also heard that Frodo had completed his task, and now that Fame had returned, he begged to go with him.

Elrond laughed, and he said: "Although the flames of war are not completely extinguished, your demands are not too much. Come, hobbits, to witness the beginning of the mortal age." Then he took them .

This made the hobbits of the two formerly brilliant members of the Fellowship of the Ring extremely excited. They wore the gorgeous costumes prepared by the elves, rode on the ponies prepared by the elves, and set off for the south together.

As for Bilbo, his stories were good enough, and he was old enough that neither the Elves nor himself asked to go.But he was still properly taken care of by the elves who stayed in the valley until the last day came.

The same scene happened to Rose Lorien.Galadriel saw the great changes in the land of the east and knew that the enemy had failed, so he also led the remaining Galazmen to leave Calas Galathon and head for Minas Tirith.

Thus, the year 3019 of the Third Age, the fourteenth day of the sixth month.

Frodo Baggins destroyed the One Ring on Mount Doom;

On the same day, Noratu Arakano, the son of Turca, defeated the blue-robed wizard Palando, and his elder brother Aratu Arakano defeated the Dark Lord Sauron in Minas Tirith, ending the third era.

On this day, the whole of Central Continent is celebrating, celebrating the arrival of light!
Minas Tirith.

Pelenno Plains.

Because most of the White City was destroyed in the battle between Aratu and Sauron, many people lived in the plains outside the city in those few days, and only women and lovely children were allowed to live in the city; people set up tents on the plains .The lights were brightly lit all night, and people were waiting for the dawn.

When the clear morning came, and the sun rose above the shadowless mountains to the east, a hundred bells rang in the city, and the banners were unfurled and fluttered in the wind.

 On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, I wish all the lovely book lovers a smooth and happy new year!Also, thanks to all my friends who are still voting during this time, thank you!
