But the result was somewhat unexpected——

"No, the favor of fate is not so easy to take away."

Galadriel shook her head.

"When the Supreme Lord of the Rings was cast, it was infused with Sauron's will and power. From a certain perspective, it is an extension of Sauron. Even if it is stolen, the share of destiny it carries will not be lost. That’s how it was transferred.”

She said:

"The reason why we want to steal it is because of another plan of Sauron."

"What's the plan?"

"He plans to use the Supreme Lord of the Rings as a basis to repeat what he once did in Middle-earth - control the thoughts and wills of everyone in this world!"

Feng Yi was not surprised at all by this answer.

only……

"If I remember correctly, if the Supreme Lord of the Rings wants to control people's hearts on a racial basis, it needs the corresponding Ring of Power as a medium, right? There should be no Ring of Power in this world, so how can he use this control and dominance? How about extending it to all mankind?”

He raised his own doubts.

"Yes, as you said, the control and dominance of the Supreme Lord of the Rings requires a medium, but although this world does not have the Ring of Power, it does have something more convenient than that."

Galadriel didn't say it clearly, but Feng Yi understood immediately:

"You mean, the Internet?"

"It is a network directly connected to the brain and consciousness!"

Galadriel corrected.

"..."

Feng Yi was speechless.

Unexpectedly, one of the signs of human civilization's modernization has in turn become the cause of the destruction of mankind... What an irony!

But then he thought of something:

"That's not right. If the Lord of the Rings could control the minds of all mankind by relying on the Internet, then he should have done it a long time ago. There is no way he would have left you a chance to steal the ring!"

"indeed so."

Gandalf on the side nodded and said:

"The reason Sauron has been slow to launch this plan is because he still lacks a crucial piece of the puzzle."

"What is it?"

"It's the three Silmarils inside me!"

Galadriel answered.

"What does this have to do with the Silmarillion?"

Feng Yi became more and more puzzled.

"This matter is indeed a bit complicated."

Galadriel sighed, but still explained to Feng Yi carefully:

"Although Sauron obtained the 'favor of fate' through the Supreme Lord of the Rings, what he obtained was only the negative, dark, and depraved part of fate, which represents the destructive tendency of the world itself. This is probably related to the fact that this fate is in Al. The connection he obtained when the world was destroyed... The Silmarillion in my body, on the contrary, represents the order, purity, and bright side of the world, and also carries a part of destiny. Only by gathering all the destiny can he Infect all mankind with his will through the Lord of the Rings, and completely dominate everything."

"I see, the reason why the Twin Sacred Tree Company you founded has been able to confront Sauron's Mordor Group for so long is because it has been favored by fate..."

Feng Yi paused, then continued:

"And you failed in the end because the fate preference you obtained was not as good as Sauron's, right?"

"That's right."

Galadriel nodded and said with regret:

“This is not only about the secret fire of creation contained in the Supreme Lord of the Rings, but also about the fate of the world itself.

Before the destruction of the world of Arda, the general trend was that light was greater than darkness. Although the darkness and evil brought by Morgoth would never be eliminated, they could not have the upper hand for a long time and briefly come back again and again. After rising, he will be defeated by heroes who uphold God's will and destiny.

But this world... Before Sauron and I were reincarnated, it was already on the road to self-destruction. Darkness and depravity have become an irresistible torrent of destiny. The fate of the entire world is naturally more inclined to the same representatives. Dark and corrupt Sauron. "

"The destiny of this world itself is to move towards darkness and depravity...you mean cyberpunk?"

Feng Yi asked tentatively.

"Cyberpunk... is a good description, and it can indeed describe the nature of this world very accurately. But the more important thing is its original source-capitalism."

"what?"

Feng Yi was stunned for a while when he heard the last words uttered from Galadriel's mouth.

Chapter 67 Technology + Prophecy = Cyber ​​Prophet

Feng Yi, what did he just hear?

Capitalism?

From Galadriel's mouth?

Put these two words together, and the sense of inconsistency is overwhelming!

But when he thought about it again, he realized that he was still limited by the inherent impression.

You know, the Galadriel in front of you is not the native elf in the original work, but a modern person who was born and raised in modern society, or even in the near future society, and has received complete higher education!

He had no doubt that the other party must have read "Das Kapital" when he was studying - if there was Ma Sheng and his redism in this world.

Therefore, it is not surprising that words like "capitalism" came out of her mouth.

As for what she said, capitalism has led the world to inevitable darkness and depravity. Although it sounds a bit creepy, if you think about it carefully, this is really true!

Look at the United States in the main world. That capitalist country is so pure that it can even be called a company disguised as a country. Isn’t its development already very close to cyberpunk?

Even if superficial appearances such as prosthetic bodies, electronic brains, and cyberspace are excluded, the United States is already an out-and-out country based on its two essences of "high technology, low living standards" and "monopoly consortiums controlling the government." Cyberpunk country is here!

But Feng Yi, who comes from the real world, knows very well that the United States, which has reached this point, is no longer the beacon of freedom that can illuminate the world, but has become a cancer that threatens the entire community of a shared future for mankind, greatly dragging down human civilization. The development has even harmed human civilization itself!

If a country is like this, what if the whole world moves toward capitalism?

A fully cyberpunk future can be said to be inevitable.

It's no wonder that Sauron is able to thrive in this world.

He was destined to move into a fallen world, and when he met Maia, who represented darkness and corruption, coupled with the weight of destiny brought by the Supreme Lord of the Rings, who would succeed if he didn't succeed?

It's just that the ambition of this second-generation Dark Lord is too great. Unifying the world by force is not enough. He even wants to control the thoughts and wills of all humans in the world!

……

"So, the three gaps left on the outside of this ring are for the three Silmarils in your body?"

Feng Yi asked.

Galadriel nodded:

"Yes, he has obviously made enough preparations. He can immediately carry out his evil plan as soon as he seizes the Silmarillion."

"That's weird."

Feng Yi frowned slightly:

"Listen to what you said, this Supreme Lord of the Rings is obviously extremely important to Sauron, but it was stolen so easily - please forgive me for using the word 'easily', but compared with its importance, You just sacrificed some agents, and the price is really too low. Even the subsequent pursuit of me and Tauriel now seems completely unworthy of Sauron's status as world overlord."

"You suspect there is fraud here, right?"

Galadriel smiled:

"Of course there is a reason for this."

As she spoke, she waved her hand into the air in front of her.

In an instant, a huge holographic projection screen appeared in mid-air.

Feng Yi turned around and saw that the screen showed a pale surface covered with craters.

He immediately recognized it, it was the moon!

In the center of the picture, inside a crater, flashes of light flashed from time to time, which caught Feng Yi's attention.

As if she knew what he was thinking, Galadriel very thoughtfully enlarged the picture, and then he saw that the crater had actually been transformed into a lunar base.

Feng Yi: "Is this...?"

"That's why you want to know."

Galadriel said as she continued to zoom in on the screen. Feng Yi finally saw that a fierce battle was going on around the base.

Immediately afterwards, she called up surveillance images from several other angles, allowing Feng Yi to see the details of the battlefield clearly.

On one side is a mechanized space corps equipped with tanks, fighter planes, and infantry. They are numerous and well-armed, and they surround the base from top to bottom;

Although the other side has fewer people and does not have large-scale mechanized troops, it can tenaciously resist the enemy's invasion by relying on the heavy firepower of the base itself.

"This is our only remaining base on the moon. Sauron thought I was on it, so he took all his elite power to the moon just to take away the Silmarillion from me."

"So the power on the ground seems so weak, does it even give people the feeling of being nothing more than that..."

Feng Yi nodded, finally relieved of a big doubt in his heart.

But then he had a new problem——

"You said you deceived Sauron, how did you do it?"

he asked with curiosity.

"Haha, this is a little trick unique to the prophet."

This time, Galadriel did not give a direct answer.

Seeing this, Feng Yi did not continue to ask.

It is true that he is not a prophet, and I am afraid that he cannot understand the world in the eyes of a prophet. He probably cannot understand what the other party says.

In fact, just as he thought, the game between Galadriel and Sauron is all-round.

Not only on the physical level of reality, but also in the illusory time.

At every moment, the spirit of the Elven Queen is fighting with the will of Sauron in the long river of time and space seen in the prophecy.

This battle is not as direct and bloody as a real-life battle. Instead, it is full of weirdness and mystery.

It's not even a fight so much as a game of hide-and-seek and puzzle-solving.

While using forged and misleading methods to deceive the other party, at the same time they must try their best to see through and expose the scam set by the other party. Both parties in the fight are constantly hiding their own futures while trying their best to spy on the other party's future.

This is a battlefield that only the Seers can participate in, and not even Gandalf, the former Maia, can set foot in it.

Even this kind of metaphysical battle also applies the power of technology——

According to what Galadriel discovered, Sauron is very likely to fuse his consciousness with an artificial intelligence he created himself, thereby gaining far more computing power than before, which makes him originally a weak player. His ability to predict things suddenly took a huge leap forward, instantly surpassing all the previous prophets in Middle-earth.

But Galadriel wasn't built for it. She also turned on technology plug-ins, but instead of integrating her consciousness with AI, she used her best genetic and biochemical technology to create a large number of her own cloned brains. Then, relying on her natural telepathy ability, she unified the consciousness of all the cloned brains into one, and also gained transcendent computing power.

In fact, just behind the throne where she sat, behind the golden wall carved with the past of the elven clans, was the place where her cloned brains were stored.

These brains are contained in glass containers, filled with life-sustaining nutrient solution, and formed a huge human brain array with the assistance of a large number of machines.

Galadriel herself almost never leaves this hall, maintaining contact with the brain array at all times, and resisting Sauron's never-ending exploration.

The mystery and magic of Middle-earth, after being combined with the technology of this world, have developed into something that even the Creator God Yiru cannot imagine!

Chapter 68 Trap on the Moon, Counterattack by Fate

Feng Yi didn't know how intense the battle between Galadriel and Sauron was at the prophecy level.

At this time, he looked at the besieged base in the picture and asked Galadriel a pointed question:

"Have everyone in this base... been abandoned?"

The situation on the battlefield is already obvious. Even with heavy fire support from the base, the disparity in troop strength cannot be smoothed out.

Under the fierce attack of the enemy's superior forces, the battle line is already in danger and may be broken through at any time.

Without reinforcements, everyone in this base would only end up being annihilated.
