"Although we don't have enough people..."
"But we are all warriors, we will never retreat and we will fight to the death!"
"Yes, we will never be afraid of the dragon..."
The dwarves were talking about it, and their opinions were basically divided into two types.
Young dwarves such as the dwarf Kilifrioli are passionate and impulsive, and seem to have no fear of anything.
The dwarves, mainly Bahrain, were older and had experienced the tragedy of the dragon Smaug's attack on the old capital of Erub, but they were much more rational and cautious.
"Knowing that you are invincible and still going up, that's not bravery, that's stupidity!"
"Hey, who are you calling stupid?"
"I am talking about you!"
"..."
Seeing that the two dwarves with opposite opinions were arguing louder and louder, the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger, and it seemed that there was a possibility of war in the next second.
Morgan quietly moved the bench back.
But he saw that Gandalf had moved to the back ahead of him.
at this time.
"enough!"
Thorin Oakenshield suddenly slapped the long table, shouted and stood up.
"If we can see the signs, do you think others can't?"
"By then, rumors started to spread..."
"Smaug hasn't been seen for sixty years!"
"How many eyes are looking at the East, thinking, weighing, and coveting our wealth!"
"In short, we must take back Erub!"
"must!"
Thorin Oakenshield clenched his fists and said loudly.
The dwarves were immediately inspired by him and cheered immediately.
But as the eldest, calmest and most cautious dwarf in the entire team, Balin immediately poured cold water on Thorin Oakenshield:
"Have you forgotten that the entire Lonely Mountain is sealed?"
"We can't enter the mountains..."
Balin shook his head and spoke. It was not so much the cold water, but the biggest problem with the expedition to the Old Kingdom.
Because Erub is completely an underground city within a mountain.
The front door of the kingdom has been sealed by the dragon Smaug. No other place can be entered. If you can't get inside, it's useless.
After Balin finished speaking, Thorin Oakenshield fell silent.
This is indeed the biggest problem right now.
"Bahrain, maybe it was before, but not anymore."
At this moment, Gandalf's voice suddenly sounded.
Then, everyone saw him pull out a delicate key that was as long as a palm and as thick as a thumb, like a magic trick.
"How did you get this..."
Thorin Oakenshield looked at the key in Gandalf's hand and murmured.
"Thor gave it to your father, Thorne, and your father kept it for me."
"Now, he belongs to you..."
Gandalf spoke slowly, stretched out his hand and handed the key to Thorin Oakenshield.
At this time, a dwarf suddenly said: "If there is a key, it means there must be a door."
"You're right, this is the new problem."
Gandalf nodded, pointed to the map on the table and continued: "That door is hidden in this map, but I don't have the ability to find it."
"But don't worry, there is someone in Middle-earth who can be found."
"Our mission must be hidden and careful..."
"So, we need a snitch..."
Seeing that the dwarves' all-out martial arts show failed to take place, Gandalf brought the gathering back to a scene similar to the one in his memory.
Morgan, who seemed to have a God's perspective, suddenly started to look away.
Brush brush brush...
Lines of virtual data emitting pale white light began to jump and flicker in the void.
No one present noticed anything strange about Morgan.
[Time Traveler: Morgan]
[Race: Human]
[Biological Level: First Level]
[Soul power: 0]
[Attributes: Strength +; Physique +; Agility +; Spirit +]
[Ability: Universal Language; Muay Thai LV2; White Crow Swordsmanship LV1; Archery LV2]
[Talent: Intimacy (Special Skill)]
[Current world exploration progress: 0.3%]
【......】
Look at the data that keeps appearing in front of you.
When seeing the data behind the column of world exploration progress.
Morgan's eyelids couldn't help but twitch wildly.
"0.3...0.3%!"
The world exploration progress has skyrocketed from 0.01% before meeting Gandalf to 0.1%.
Then it skyrocketed from 0.1% to 0.3% exploration progress!
If nothing had changed in the past half month since he left, Morgan would have suspected that the system was malfunctioning.
Facts have proved that his previous idea was very correct.
The current world exploration progress is closely related to the plot characters.
This points the way for Morgan's future, no, lights up the light.
Just by meeting the main plot characters, the exploration progress has increased so much.
If you participate in the event together, the increase will definitely be greater.
The more exploration progress he makes, the better he will understand the system.
What's more, Morgan's other main goal is to gain soul power and become stronger.
The best way is again to follow Gandalf and Thorin Oakenshield, as there is no shortage of enemies.
Just when Morgan was pondering his own system.
Gandalf, who was sitting aside, suddenly stood up. Under the light of the fire, his originally tall shadow immediately became extremely large, and the shadow enveloped the entire living room.
"enough!"
"If I say Bilbo is the Snitch, then he is!"
The seemingly calm voice was extremely deafening in the ears of everyone present.
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the house was stunned.
It has always been said that Gandalf is a wizard, but none of the dwarves have actually seen Gandalf perform witchcraft.
With this move, the dwarves looked at Gandalf in awe.
Even Thorin Oakenshield is the same.
Morgan, who was originally minding his own business, was also shocked by Gandalf's move.
He immediately dismissed the system in front of him and returned his attention to the desktop in front of him.
"Hobbits are smaller and light on their feet."
"Although some of you dwarves can do this."
"However, you must know that Smaug has long been accustomed to you, and he can easily smell your scent."
"The Hobbit is different. Smaug has never seen a Hobbit."
"The fourteenth person you asked me to find, I choose Mr. Baggins."
"He is capable of much more than he looks, and he can contribute more than you or even he knows."
"So, you must believe him..."
Gandalf sat down again, and Morgan quickly understood the cause and effect from his words.
The dwarves despise Bilbo, but Gandalf fully recommends him.
"Very well, we will do as you say..."
Thorin Oakenshield looked at Gandalf for a long time, and finally seemed to be convinced.
But Morgan, who was paying attention to Thorin Oakenshield, knew based on the plot in his memory: Thorin Oakenshield still didn't trust Bilbo. He just trusted Gandalf and gave Gandalf face.
"Take out the contract and Morgan's share..."
