Chapter 124
"You stole my stuff and took it as your reward" Thorin kept sneering.

"Your reward."

Thorin drew his sword from his belt and pointed it at Bilbo. "You have no right to ask me for payment, you vile thief!"

Bilbo still tried to explain to Thorin.

"I originally wanted to give it to you. I have prepared to give it to you many times, but"

"But, you have changed. Sorin, since you entered the Lonely Mountain, you have completely changed."

"The dwarf I knew in Bag End would never doubt the loyalty of his people just because of a gem. You wear armor for every dwarf in your arsenal, and you are actually searching them. "

Bilbo directly exposed Thorin's filth in the armory that night.

"Because you suspected, they hid your gems privately! You even suspected me, you forced me to take out my own things from my own pocket!"

As soon as Bilbo said this, all the dwarves were in an uproar. They all looked at Thorin who was confronting Bilbo with strange eyes.

However, at this moment, Thorin had completely ignored these things, and he wanted to throw Bilbo off the city wall angrily.

"You don't want to talk to me about loyalty now." Sorin said through gritted teeth.

"Throw this damned thief off the city wall!"

Thorin gave orders to the surrounding dwarves, but they were unmoved. They were extremely disappointed with Thorin at the moment.

Especially after Bilbo exposed his dirty behavior of frisking the dwarves.

Thorin grabbed his nephew Fili, wanting him to do it.

But Fili struggled free from his grasp.

"You don't want to do it, so let me do it myself!" Thorin rushed straight at Bilbo.

"Stop! Thorin Oakenshield!" Just as Thorin grabbed Bilbo by the collar and was about to throw him off the wall, there was a shout from below the wall, stopping Thorin's actions.

"Do you remember the promise I made to you and Gandalf in Bag End?" Gao Yuan said loudly.

In order to prevent Sorin from forgetting, Gao Yuan also reminded intimately: "During this journey, I will ensure the safety of Mr. Bilbo Baggins until he returns to his Bag End at the end of his journey. "

"If you have any opinion on me and Gandalf, the chosen snitch, please come to us and don't hurt our hobbit." Gao Yuan looked at the old man hidden under the cloak.

The old man lifted the hood on his head, revealing his own face. It was Gandalf who had disappeared for a long time.

"Actually, the Arken gem has always been with me. Although Bilbo found it, it has always been in my hands. It was also with my consent that Bilbo gave the Arken gem to Bard and the others. "Gao Yuan is going to take the responsibility on himself.

"You know, no one can take it away from me without my approval!" Gao Yuan continued, "I also agree with Bilbo's approach."

What Gao Yuan said stunned Sorin.

Since leaving Rivendell, the person Thorin trusted the most was Gao Yuan, but at this moment he chose to do the same thing as Bilbo.

This made him wonder for the first time whether he had really done something wrong.

"You are all in collusion!" Sorin's heart was shaken a little, "I will never deal with mages, thieves of Shire, or rangers."

"Now there is a perfect solution, right? Mr. Baggins is willing to take out his part of the contract to compensate the king and the residents of Changhu Town, and you will also get the Arken gem. This is very fair!" Gao Yuan continued to persuade.

"Gao Yuan! You're right, it's fair." Sorin said solemnly.

"But I've been betrayed! You have taken advantage of my weakness. I can't let the family heirloom diamonds fall into the hands of outsiders. In exchange for the gems, I am willing to pay one-fifteenth of the value of the gems in gold. Silver in exchange for this treasure."

In the end, Sorin made a choice between the diamond and one-fifteenth of the treasure.

"That is, the share that the traitor said is due to you. Now it is yours, and you can distribute it freely. Including Gao Yuan's share, I will give you a lot of it, because you helped us kill that A dragon."

"But from now on, there will be no friendship between us!"

Thorin completely let go of Bilbo's collar, and said to him who was still in shock, "Go down and find your friend, or I'm afraid I can't help but shoot you with a bow and arrow!"

With the help of other dwarves, Bilbo tremblingly climbed down the rope to the city wall. With the help of Gao Yuan's thoughts, he soon reached the ground safely and came to Gao Yuan's side.

"It seems that we have reached a consensus in this negotiation!" Bud shouted, "Use the treasure we deserve to exchange for your Arken gem."

"Yes, you have won, we have reached an agreement, I will find a way to give you the treasure!" Thorin kept pacing on the city wall, and answered Bard's question hysterically.

"Until we receive the treasure we deserve, the Arkan gem will stay with us first," Bud nodded with satisfaction, and a smile finally appeared on his gloomy face.

There is no need to go to war with the dwarves. From their point of view, this incident has come to a perfect end.

"We will come here again tomorrow." Bud said: "That is the deadline for you to confirm whether you have come up with an equivalent amount of treasure enough to exchange this gem."

"If you don't play tricks, you will get your family heirloom diamond, we will leave, and the elf army will return to the forest. We will retire first!"

After finishing speaking, the coalition forces of humans and the woodland kingdom turned around and withdrew from the gate of Lonely Mountain, and returned to the camp in River Valley City.

"trade."

"betray."

"Fair. Tomorrow, Baozuan." After the coalition army, Gao Yuan and others left, Sorin began to whisper nonsense on the city wall.

No one knew what he was talking about. Balin thought that Sorin was completely crazy. Kili and Fili wanted to go forward to comfort their uncle, but Sorin pushed him away.

Thorin was not willing to hand over those treasures so simply, even if this was the reward promised to Bilbo, he could also exchange for his family heirloom diamond.

The obsession with treasure made him start to think again, whether he could rely on the help of Ironfoot Dyne to take back the Arken gem from the hands of the coalition forces without spending a penny.

The goal at this time is no longer to block the supply line of the coalition forces. It is meaningless if the gems are in their hands.His goal now is to take the gem back from the hands of the coalition forces.

So Sorin secretly found Raven Rock at night, took the opportunity to quietly send a messenger, and let it inform Dyne that he would come with his troops day and night.

One day passed quickly, and early the next morning, Bud and Thranduy led the coalition forces and came to the gate of the Lonely Mountain again.

Along with them were Plateau, Bilbo and others, who brought the Arken gem and waited for Thorin to fulfill yesterday's promise.

Sorin and others also came to the city wall, but he has yet to take out those treasures as promised yesterday.

Just kept staring at the position of the branch in the southeast direction of Gushan.

Bard stepped forward to ask Sorin if he was ready, and promised to honor those gold yesterday.

Sorin replied to them in this way: "This diamond belongs to my father, and I should inherit it! Why should I exchange gold for my own treasure?"

Thranduil was not at all surprised by Thorin's repentance, he pretended to be talking to Bud with an indifferent expression
"Then we will keep the Arken gem and sell it. The ruling prime minister of Gondor will definitely be willing to pay a good price."

"At least not less than the dwarves!"

Thranduy's words completely angered Thorin. He even said so lightly that he would sell his family's heirloom diamond and sell it to other people.

"I'm going to kill you!" Thorin was completely insane at this time, he yelled angrily, "I swear I'm going to kill all of you!"

Thranduil sneered, then retorted: "Your oath is worthless."

"How did you promise us yesterday?" Thranduil asked back.

Mentioning the promise made Sorin even more furious.

How dare he.
Bring up the promise in front of yourself.

"You still have the face to tell me, have you forgotten how you treated my grandfather and the dwarves? Have you forgotten how you betrayed your promise in the dungeons of your kingdom?"

"I heard that someone gave you a nickname. It was passed down from your clan. They called you Forsworn! Thranduil, Forsworn, hahahaha"
