It was completely dark.
The gates of Erebor, the Lonely Mountain, are high on the city walls.
A group of dwarf warriors are on guard duty.
Inside the lone mountain behind them.
It was brightly lit.
Lively and noisy sounds kept coming from behind.
The dwarf warriors on duty looked back from time to time, muttering something in their mouths.
Deep in the lonely mountain.
In an extremely wide square, this carnival was held.
At this time, the brazier was illuminated like daylight by the burning fires on the surrounding walls.
A large number of dwarves shuttled back and forth.
More dwarves were already sitting at the large number of stone tables in the square.
Because this was once the place where the kingdom’s huge banquet ceremony was held.
So every few stone tables you can see a large stone platform in the middle of the stone table, which is a stone platform specially used for burning campfires and cooking food.
At this time, almost all the stone platforms where the dwarves were sitting were lit with bonfires.
Also surrounding were grills and cooking pots, as well as chunks of bloody raw meat.
The carnival party has not yet completely begun.
The entire banquet square was noisy.
Morgan was walking in the square at this time.
Leading the way was his student, the dwarf Kili.
Following closely behind him was the female elf Tauriel.
This was obviously the first time Tauriel had seen and participated in the scene of a dwarven feast.
Walking on the road in a square filled with crowded dwarves, you can't help but feel a little bit restrained.
Morgan, who noticed this scene, stretched out a hand to hold the hand of the female elf behind him.
Tariel was immediately moved by Morgan's move, and a blush immediately appeared on his fair face. He did not resist and allowed Morgan in front of him to lead him forward.
The trace of uneasiness that had arisen in my heart quickly disappeared.
Morgan didn't notice the slight change in Tariel behind him just because of his hand.
He was currently chatting with Qili who was leading the way.
"How is Fili's injury?" Morgan asked.
"It's better..."
Kili turned to look at the teacher behind him and continued: "I just woke up this morning."
"How's Fili's leg doing now?"
“What did the apothecary of the Iron Hills say?”
Thinking of Fili's horrific leg injury yesterday, Morgan continued to ask.
"Fili's injury has stabilized. The next step is to rest and recuperate."
"But his legs I'm afraid..."
At this point, Qili couldn't help but sigh.
"Can't stand up?"
Hearing Qili's tone, Morgan seemed to have guessed the result and asked softly.
"right..."
Kili shook his head and continued: "The injury is too serious."
"But it's nothing. This is already a good result."
Qili immediately changed his voice as he spoke, turned to look at the teacher and smiled: "If it weren't for the teacher's arrow, he would definitely not have survived..."
Morgan didn't answer this and just smiled and shook his head.
The two masters and apprentices chatted all the way.
It didn't take long before we reached the top of this huge and wide square.
"Morgan, here..."
At this time, a voice suddenly came from the front.
Morgan looked up and saw Bilbo standing in front of a stone table in the square at the top, waving in this direction.
Beside Bilbo, sat Gandalf, Balin, Dwalin and Thorin Oakenshield wearing a luxurious fur coat.
"They're there."
Kili also saw Bilbo and said happily and immediately walked towards it.
It didn't take long.
Morgan took Tariel and Kili to the long stone table where Bilbo was sitting, which was also the largest in the entire banquet hall.
"Sit down, Morgan..."
White-bearded Balin stood up and greeted Morgan with a smile: "You have to come a little later."
"We are all ready to take a gamble on you..."
When Bahrain finished speaking, everyone around him immediately laughed.
Bilbo immediately answered with a smile: "Yes, I'm ready to place a bet."
"Then what are you betting on?"
Morgan pulled Tariel and sat down with a smile, looked at Bilbo and asked.
"Of course I bet you can make it before the party starts."
"You know I trust you."
Bilbo replied with a smile.
"What about you Gandalf?"
Morgan sat down and looked at Gandalf beside him and asked with a smile.
Gandalf picked up the red fruit wine glass on the table and took a sip before saying, "I am exactly the opposite of Bilbo. I bet you will be late."
"Why?"
"Of course it's because of your love..."
Gandalf said, looking at Tariel beside Morgan, smiling and nodding.
After listening to Gandalf's words, Tariel's fair face immediately turned red with embarrassment, and at the same time he did not forget to smile and nod in return to Gandalf.
at this time.
A short but imposing dwarf wearing armor and a black exquisite coat with red beard and hair was walking towards here with several fully armed dwarves.
Seeing the figure of the incoming figure, Thorin Oakenshield immediately stood up and faced him.
The visitor was naturally the dwarf lord of the Iron Hills, Dyne Ironfoot.
Because he was busy cleaning the battlefield, he finally arrived at this time.
After the two brothers Thorin Oakenshield and Ironfoot Dyne warmly hugged each other.
Soon they joined hands and walked towards the huge long stone table.
For the arrival of Dyne Ironfoot.
The group also stood up and saluted to show their respect.
In this battle, the Iron Hills dwarf soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
Without the help from Iron Hills, this war would have failed before the giant eagles arrived.
There is no doubt about Dyne Ironfoot's contribution.
Thorin Oakenshield made an introduction when he arrived at Morgan.
Morgan and Dyne Ironfoot both laughed.
"Morgan, thank you very much for stopping me before, otherwise this battle would have been much more difficult for us..."
Iron-footed Dain looked at Morgan and said, thanking him seriously.
This also made everyone at the table immediately recall the critical moment before the war at dawn yesterday.
At that time, a battle was about to take place between the wood elves army led by the Elf King Thranduil and the dwarf warriors led by Ironfoot Dain.
If Morgan hadn't taken action to stop it, the consequences would have been disastrous.
"It's just that you hit too hard, making me feel a little uncomfortable..."
Iron-footed Dain continued to speak, with a relaxed tone and a smile that immediately made everyone else around him laugh.
Except for the female elf Tauriel, everyone present saw how Morgan quickly defeated Ironfoot Dyne and held him hostage.
After hearing the words of the Lord of Iron Hills in front of him and seeing the looks of the people around him, Tariel immediately looked at the man beside him.
She knew that Morgan was powerful, but she didn't know exactly how powerful it was.
Now it seemed that Morgan had obviously done something remarkable when he and Legolas went to Gundabad to inquire about the news.
The dwarf lord of the Iron Hills in front of him kept thanking him and started to complain.
Judging from the tone, it was clear that Morgan had suffered a loss.
Seeing Tariel's gaze, Morgan just smiled and patted Tariel's hand.
Then he looked at Iron-footed Dain and smiled: "I had no other choice at that time."
"If there is a next time, I will definitely be gentler with Lord Dyne."
"snort..."
Listening to Morgan's pretentious words, Iron-footed Dyne immediately snorted and continued: "I hope there will be a next time."
"I just didn't pay attention and was attacked by you."
"If we really have to compete, I won't lose to you, kid."
"After this incident... let's give it two days. How about we have a competition in two days?"
Iron-footed Dain said without giving up.
But before Morgan could speak, the white-bearded Balin immediately said in advance: "Dane, I'll just let it go."
Bahrain was in the period of the former Mountain Kingdom.
When he was following Thorin Oakenshield in the Blue Mountains, he was still a minister within the tribe.
In the future, the kingdom under the mountain is led by Thorin Oakenshield.
Bahrain is still a minister and an important minister.
With Bahrain's age and status, there is no problem in calling Dyne Ironfoot by his first name.
"Why?"
Ironfoot Dyne immediately looked at Balin and asked.
Balin continued to smile and said: "We all know that you are very good, but it is not easy to beat Morgan."
"You must know that Morgan is a dragon-slaying warrior..."
"He and the one from Riverdale killed the dragon Smaug together."
"Also, Azog, the leader of the orcs, also died at the hands of Morgan."
"Are you sure you want to compete with Morgan?"
Hear what Balin said.
Ironfooted Dain was immediately shocked.
Of course he knew the name of the evil dragon Smaug, but he didn't expect that it was this boy Morgan who killed him.
And Azog, the great half-orc leader.
He originally thought that the other party died at the hands of Thorin's own cousin Thorin, but he didn't expect that he also died at the hands of Morgan.
Then this human boy's strength is definitely not simple.
Thinking of this quickly, Ironfooted Daine immediately hesitated.
He had really planned to compete with Morgan after everything was over.
He always means what he says.
But if what Bahrain said now is true.
If he really had to fight against that boy Morgan again, he would probably just end up losing.
At this time, his mind was already thinking about the scene where he was attacked by Morgan yesterday.
Although the other party made a sneak attack.
But Iron-footed Dain had to admit in his heart that the boy was very fast and very powerful.
Perhaps, he might really not be that boy's opponent.
Yesterday's scene could be said to be a sneak attack by the other party.
If we lose to Morgan again, there will be no excuse...
Thinking of this, Ironfooted Dyne immediately gave up the idea of regaining his face and teaching Morgan a lesson.
He has a strong personality and doesn't know what embarrassment is. He looked directly at Morgan and said: "Forget it, I have something to do in two days. We will talk about the competition later."
Morgan naturally saw that Ironfooted Dain was frightened by Balin's words in front of him.
He didn't care, he just smiled and sat down.
At this time, Tariel, who was beside him, immediately approached and asked softly: "Morgan, did you compete with the Lord of the Iron Hills yesterday?"
Looking at Tauriel who was so excited that his soul of gossip was burning.
Morgan took the fruit wine bottle handed over by his student Kili, poured himself a full glass and drank it in one gulp, then whispered to Tariel beside him about the thrilling scenes of yesterday morning.
Just as Morgan and Tariel slowly talked about their glorious deeds.
Thorin Oakenshield raised his wine glass and announced the start of tonight's feast to the crowd of impatient dwarves below the square.
For a moment, the entire square immediately erupted into even more enthusiastic noises and noises.
At the table where Morgan was sitting, everyone began to eat and drink with ease.
It’s been more than half a year since I came to this world.
Morgan was also used to the food of this world.
Especially the diet of the dwarves.
Facing a table full of bacon, smoked fish, prosciutto, cheese, bread and other foods.
Morgan ate deliciously.
With his physical strength at this time, even if he does nothing, he needs to consume a lot of energy every day.
His current food intake is about three to four times that of an average adult man.
Don’t think this is a lot of food, it’s actually not a lot.
You must know that each of the dwarves in the expedition eats at least twice as much as an adult man.
It's Bilbo, after more than half a year of training.
At this time, his food intake was at least twice as much as before he left Hobbiton.
Of course, the reason for all this.
It's all because of the high-intensity exercise that everyone in the expedition team has been doing.
If exercise slowly decreases or stops.
Everyone’s food intake will definitely decrease.
But Morgan's appetite will certainly not decrease much.
Because his physical strength at this time has already far exceeded that of ordinary people.
Several dwarves on the table were eating and gobbling.
Morgan also ate quickly.
But the way he eats is much more gentle than the dwarves.
Same goes for Bilbo and Gandalf.
Because all the food for this feast was transported from Iron Hills.
Therefore, there was a lot of food on the table that Morgan had never seen or eaten.
Even Tauriel, who is an elf, was eating happily at this time.
However, most of what he ate was vegetarian food, such as several kinds of dried vegetables, potato pie, apple pie, and some small amounts of smoked fish and meat.
This event made Morgan know that the food of the dwarves was not all meat.
After everyone had simply filled their stomachs, they started the most important thing of the night: drinking.
Pushing cups and changing cups, drinking and drinking...
Because of identity.
Morgan and Gandalf Bilbo were the focus of a group of dwarves' toasting attacks.
During this period, Bofur, Groin, Doli, Bombur and other dwarf members of the expedition team kept appearing at the table holding cups.
When a group of expedition team members gathered at this table.
The atmosphere at the wine table also reached its climax.
When Bilbo, who was particularly active after drinking, suggested that everyone tell one of the most unforgettable things along the way, everyone responded immediately.
So, it started with Bilbo who was the first to make this suggestion.
Bilbo: "The most unforgettable thing for me is of course when we mistakenly entered the underground Goblin City. That time, with the help of Morgan, I found what I think is the most important confidence in my life. Thank you Morgan."
As soon as the words fell, the dwarves who had drunk a lot immediately cheered and were about to drink with Bilbo.
Looking at Bilbo who looked very happy, Morgan knew it.
Bilbo did remember that one most vividly.
But it is not necessarily his own teachings, but more likely that he picked up the Supreme Lord of the Rings deep in the underground mine.
Bilbo finished speaking, and then it was the turn of Balin the Whitebeard beside him.
When Balin said that the most unforgettable thing for him was yesterday when Thorin led himself and a group of friends out of the gate of the Lonely Mountain.
All the dwarves became excited.
At this moment, Morgan suddenly said: "Thorin, can you sing the song you sang at Bilbo's house again?"
After the words fell, everyone fell silent.
But soon, Thorin Oakenshield's deep song sounded: "Crossed the cold misty mountain pass"
"The stone palace has no bottom, and the ancient caves are deep and secluded"
"The morning light is faint, chasing north"
Following Thorin Oakenshield's singing, all the dwarves also sang along.
"The high mountains are filled with angry forests and pines like the sea"
"The wind sings away the dust under the evening star"
"We must leave before dawn"
"To find the lost treasure..."
