half an hour ago.
Inside Bag End.
Gandalf and Bilbo kept talking.
Morgan held an oak pipe and sat quietly on the bench smoking.
When you have finished packing your clothes and some essential things for a long trip.
"Gandalf, Morgan, I'm leaving. Goodbye."
Bilbo said goodbye to his two old friends like a normal person and hurried to the door, ready to open it and leave.
"Bilbo..."
Morgan suddenly shouted.
Bilbo's face tightened as he just stepped out of the door, and he immediately stopped.
"Did you forget to leave something behind?"
Morgan stood up and walked towards the door with his pipe in hand.
"Have it?"
Seeing Morgan following him, Bilbo stretched out his hand and touched his whole body symbolically. He looked at Morgan and said with a forced smile: "No more."
"The whole of Bag End is reserved for Frodo. I've written it all and it's on the table..."
Listening to Bilbo's pretending to be calm, Morgan didn't expose it immediately, but sighed in his heart.
The allure of the Supreme Lord of the Rings is simply too powerful.
As Bilbo grew older, he was obviously unable to resist the temptation of the Lord of the Rings.
Especially when Gandalf just mentioned that the ring can slow down aging.
For Bilbo, who usually envied Morgan for not aging, this was tantamount to the most powerful temptation poison.
Bilbo then turned his back to the twisted expression on Gandalf's face.
Morgan, who was sitting aside smoking a cigarette and watching, could see clearly.
"Of course..."
"The ring is still in your pocket, Bilbo."
At this time, Gandalf's voice sounded from behind.
Bilbo's expression changed immediately. Looking at Morgan behind him and Gandalf walking towards him, Bilbo's expression changed rapidly again and again.
Finally, he struggled and took out the golden ring from his pocket.
Just looking at the more and more tempting Supreme Lord of the Rings in his hand.
Bilbo's eyes couldn't help but become blurry again.
"cough..."
Morgan, who looked at Bilbo with his own eyes, couldn't help coughing.
Bilbo immediately trembled.
As if he realized something, he immediately looked away.
Morgan and Gandalf stood aside, looking at Bilbo like this and no one said anything.
Just wait quietly.
There are some things that you need to overcome and persevere on your own.
After a while, Bilbo's eyes finally returned to the ring in his hand.
This time, he just glanced at the ring in his hand and immediately closed his eyes.
A trace of struggle flashed across his face with his eyes tightly closed.
Immediately, his palms turned upside down.
"boom..."
A slight sound.
The One Ring fell to the carpet.
Immediately afterwards, Bilbo opened his eyes and strode outside without looking back.
"call..."
At this moment, Morgan and Gandalf couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief at the same time.
Outside Bag End.
"Goodbye, Gandalf."
"Goodbye, Morgan."
After Bilbo hugged his two old friends, he set out on the road with his walking stick and backpack on his back.
It was still early at this point.
The night sky is filled with stars.
The spacious grassy banquet venue a little further away.
The hobbits were still eating, drinking, and dancing happily.
The host's departure did not greatly affect the continuation of the banquet.
The entrance to Bag End.
Watching Bilbo's figure walking away with brisk steps and humming a tune in his mouth.
Morgan and Gandalf looked away, looked at each other, then turned and walked towards Bag End.
Morgan was in front. He walked into the door and just glanced at the Supreme Lord of the Rings on the ground before striding over and walking towards the living room.
"Morgan..."
At this time, Gandalf suddenly spoke.
Morgan stopped and turned to look behind him.
Gandalf was bending down and reaching out to touch the ring on the carpet.
The next second.
Before Gandalf even touched the Supreme Lord of the Rings, his expression immediately changed, he stood unsteadily and retreated back.
"Are you okay, Gandalf?"
Morgan was shocked and immediately spoke out.
"fine..."
Gandalf stood firm on the door frame behind him and waved his hand. He looked at the ring on the carpet, but his expression was more solemn than ever before.
"Morgan, come and try."
Gandalf raised his head, looked at Morgan in front of him and said.
Hear Gandalf's words.
Morgan was silent.
My family knows their own affairs.
At the bottom of the mine in the underground Goblin Kingdom, before he even came into contact with the Supreme Lord of the Rings, he was almost tempted to kill Bilbo.
What now?
Although now I no longer have any thoughts about the Supreme Lord of the Rings.
However, Morgan still didn't want to touch the One Ring.
Because from his understanding of the Lord of the Rings, the stronger the strength, the stronger the desire, and the greater the influence of the Lord of the Rings.
"Morgan..."
Seeing Morgan's indifference, Gandalf felt happy and spoke again.
He had talked to Morgan about the ring in Bilbo's hand in Mirkwood last year.
Obviously, Morgan should be wary of the ring in front of him that is extremely suspicious of the Supreme Lord of the Rings.
In this way, it will be more beneficial for Morgan to hold it.
"Morgan, we need someone to take away this Ring. You should come and try."
Gandalf looked at Morgan and spoke in a deep voice.
Seeing Gandalf's serious expression, Morgan knew that he couldn't just refuse.
Because everything he knew about the Lord of the Rings, in Gandalf's opinion, was all told to him by Gandalf.
If he resists too much, he will attract Gandalf's attention and suspicion.
"Then give it a try?"
"With my current mental strength that far exceeds that of ordinary people, and my heartfelt resistance to the Supreme Lord of the Rings, there shouldn't be much of a problem."
Morgan's heart moved slightly.
Thinking of this, he nodded towards Gandalf.
He walked forward slowly and looked at the golden ring on the carpet that exuded an attractive luster.
Morgan looked up at Gandalf who was standing aside, and said seriously: "If anything happens to me, you must remind me."
Looking at Morgan's serious expression, Gandalf couldn't help but smile.
It seems that Morgan is indeed wary of himself and the ring he mentioned.
"I will."
Gandalf smiled and nodded.
Morgan bent down and reached out to touch the gold ring on the carpet.
Following Gandalf's demonstration just now, Morgan's fingers approached the Supreme Lord of the Rings very slowly.
Something different than Gandalf.
He held his fingers until he was about to touch the ring.
Still nothing happened.
Ever since that time at the bottom of the mine in the underground Goblin Kingdom, Morgan had been wary of the ring in front of him.
Even now, his mind is always clear.
About to touch the Supreme Lord of the Rings, Morgan took a deep breath, calmed down, and then suddenly picked up the golden ring on the carpet.
"Huh..."
"It seems like I feel nothing."
Morgan stood up and looked at the Supreme Lord of the Rings lying in his hand, feeling a little confused.
Gandalf immediately smiled when he saw this scene: "It seems I have found the right person..."
The words have not yet finished.
Morgan's eyes suddenly changed.
I saw myself standing on a towering platform.
In the huge square below, there were densely packed elves, humans and dwarves wearing bracelets and shackles.
Further away, there were an army of orcs, fully armed and holding weapons.
Everyone was looking at themselves on the high platform with fearful expressions.
To the right next to him, the female elf Tauriel with an explosive figure remains as cool as ever.
On the left, Arwen, the "evening star" princess of Rivendell, dressed in a pure white dress, with an extremely delicate and pure appearance, and an extraordinary temperament, is standing aside obediently.
Seeing her looking over, Arwen immediately showed a hint of shyness.
Morgan turned his head with satisfaction and looked further into the distance.
Within sight, there were burned cities, villages, and thick smoke billowing everywhere.
The orc army was escorting dense groups of elves, humans and dwarves towards the towering mountain peak where they were.
Farther away in the sky, a blood-like setting sun hung high.
Watching the whole world being trampled under his feet.
Morgan was in a great mood.
He retracted his gaze and slowly glanced at the prisoners in the square below.
Everyone looked in fear and awe, looking at themselves as if they were dominated by gods.
Morgan glanced at his own country with great pride, and slowly looked around.
Finally, when I saw an even more majestic tower behind me.
A huge eye burning with flames instantly appeared.
Morgan seemed to have thought of something, and his heart immediately stirred up and down. All the scenes in front of him also trembled violently, as if they would collapse in the next second.
"Morgan..."
"Morgan..."
At this moment, a series of extremely majestic, familiar and urgent voices suddenly sounded in his mind.
Morgan's spirit was shaken, and he immediately remembered everything about himself: "This is Gandalf's voice. I am Morgan. I am in Bilbo's Bag End in the Shire..."
"I just picked up the One Ring for the first time..."
"Wait, where am I?"
Morgan, who quickly recalled everything he had, immediately realized that something was wrong with the various scenes in front of him.
The next second.
All the scenes that were shaking violently in front of him immediately shattered and disappeared inch by inch.
Morgan felt the scene in front of him change instantly, and then he saw Gandalf standing in front of him, with a hand on his head and an eager look on his face.
Looking at his old friend whose eyes quickly became clear, Gandalf shouted again: "Morgan?"
"it's me."
Morgan nodded.
Gandalf then put down his hand on Morgan's forehead and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Gandalf, who had blocked the light, stepped aside.
Morgan's eyes immediately became clear.
At this time, an extremely hot burning feeling suddenly came from the palm of my hand.
Morgan immediately opened his hand and saw that the Supreme Lord of the Rings in his hand had turned red.
Morgan immediately threw the Supreme Lord of the Rings on the ground like trash.
I saw the Lord of the Rings that had fallen on the ground rolling all the way until it reached the carpet in the middle of the living room before stopping.
"Are you okay?"
Gandalf asked, looking at the panting Morgan.
Morgan's eyes then shifted from the Supreme Lord of the Rings to Gandalf in front of him: "Is everything okay?"
"never mind."
Morgan shook his head and looked at Gandalf and asked, "What just happened to me?"
Gandalf did not answer immediately, but reached out and took down the cigarette rod hanging from his waist.
Then he took out the tobacco bag, skillfully filled it with tobacco, lit it, took a strong puff, and exhaled the smoke.
Then he slowly said: "Your expression just now suddenly became extremely hideous and twisted, very scary..."
"Tell me Morgan, what did you just see?"
Gandalf said, looking at Morgan and asking with a solemn expression.
Morgan looked at Gandalf in front of him.
He also took out his oak pipe and started filling it with tobacco and lighting it.
He took a strong puff, exhaled the smoke to calm his mind, and then said: "I just saw cities destroyed, villages destroyed, and countless free people killed and captured."
"The earth is crying and burning..."
"Orcs have taken over the world..."
"The whole world is sinking..."
Morgan spoke slowly and recounted the large number of scenes he had just seen.
But he also took the initiative to ignore and hide some scenes.
He already knew that some of the pictures he had just seen were probably the Lord of the Rings projecting some of his deepest desires, expanding them into pictures in an attempt to seduce and control him.
If he was not strong enough just now.
At this time, I am afraid that my mind has been controlled by the Supreme Lord of the Rings.
So he took action against Gandalf.
With Morgan's true strength, if he is controlled.
The consequences will become extremely terrifying.
Hearing Morgan's words, Gandalf's expression became increasingly serious.
The two were silent for a while.
Morgan's eyes returned to the Supreme Lord of the Rings not far away again, and he suddenly said: "What should I do with that Lord of the Rings?"
Gandalf came back to his senses, looked at the gold ring on the carpet in the living room, and said, "I was just thinking."
Gandalf said, walking towards the living room.
Morgan stood for a while, then reached out to close the door and walked towards the living room.
Return to the living room.
The two of them were sitting on a bench smoking cigarettes.
Gandalf thought about who could pick up the golden ring in front of him again like Bilbo.
Morgan was thinking about the horror of the Supreme Lord of the Rings.
From the scenes in the memory plot, the Supreme Lord of the Rings in Bilbo's hands can only seduce him.
But why do I always want to control myself when it comes into my own hands?
It was like that at the bottom of the mine in the underground Goblin Kingdom.
Now that's it again.
What's even more annoying is that he was still able to resist the temptation of the Lord of the Rings with his own will.
But just now, without Gandalf's help and call, he didn't know whether he would really wake up in the end.
Morgan thought for a while.
Finally, I realized it after constantly recalling the memory plot in my mind.
My will now is much stronger and firmer than when I was in the mine.
However, in the past sixty years, the Supreme Lord of the Rings may have been more influenced by Sauron, the master of Mordor.
As Modo prepares to move, Sauron wakes up.
The consciousness of the Supreme Lord of the Rings was also awakened.
Thinking of this, Morgan suddenly realized that just the consciousness of the Supreme Lord of the Rings could almost control his temptation.
So, as the master of the Lord of the Rings and the Dark Lord's big boss, Sauron, how strong must he be?
In the living room.
While Morgan and Gandalf were each smoking a dull cigarette.
Frodo suddenly opened the door and came in.
Then, when he saw the gold ring on the carpet in front of him, he reached out and picked it up.
I looked up and saw this scene.
Gandalf was overjoyed.
In addition to secretly saying "Sure enough", Morgan had just seen the power of the Supreme Lord of the Rings again, and he already had a better understanding of the Hobbit race.
ten minutes later.
"Frodo, hold out your hand."
Gandalf held the red-hot One Ring with pliers and called Frodo.
"Don't worry, it's not hot anymore."
Seeing Frodo's hesitant expression, Gandalf smiled and put the Ring into Frodo's hand.
"See if you can see anything."
Gandalf said as he put down the pliers, walked to the round table next to Morgan, picked up the tea cup and drank.
"No..."
Frodo picked up the Supreme Ring and looked at it carefully, then slowly said: "There is nothing..."
Putting down the tea cup, Gandalf couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
The next second, Frodo spoke again: "Wait..."
"There are scratches on it..."
"It looks like elven writing, but I don't recognize it..."
As Frodo's voice sounded again, Morgan could clearly feel the drastic change in Gandalf's mood next to him.
"Few people can understand it. It's Modo's ancient writing."
Gandalf, with a heavy heart, continued: "But I cannot pronounce it..."
"In common language, it means: the supreme ring, the ring to control others;"
"The supreme precept, seek all the precepts;"
"The supreme precept leads everyone to precept;"
"The Supreme Ring, imprisoning all the Rings in the darkness..."
...
The night began to darken.
Bag End.
The living room is brightly lit.
Frodo was busy preparing supper for the three of them.
Morgan sat at the long table drinking tea.
Gandalf stared at the golden ring on the dining table and began to look at the two of them, mainly to learn about the history and secrets of Frodo Cop.
"This Supreme Lord of the Rings was forged by the Dark Lord Sauron from the flames of Mount Doom..."
"Isildur was taken from Sauron..."
"Bilbo found Gollum in his cave..."
"For sixty years, Bilbo quietly held the One Ring..."
"He also extended his life..."
"But things have changed now. Modo's evil is ready to move..."
"The Supreme Lord of the Rings has been awakened..."
"It heard its master's call..."
"It is thinking about returning to its owner all the time..."
"The soul of Sauron is not dead..."
"His life is connected to the Supreme Lord of the Rings. As long as the Lord of the Rings is not destroyed, Sauron will never truly die..."
"Gollum has revealed Bilbo's whereabouts..."
"Those evils will soon find Ciel..."
Gandalf kept talking slowly while drinking fragrant black tea.
At this time, Morgan suddenly heard a noise outside the window not far behind him. He immediately stepped forward quickly and saw a stocky figure outside the low window, grabbing him and pulling him in.
"Sam..."
"Damn Samwise Gamgee, have you been eavesdropping?"
Seeing the pudgy figure captured by Morgan, Gandalf was immediately furious.
at this time.
A slight sound of horse hooves suddenly came from far outside the window.
Morgan's expression changed, and he immediately shouted to the three people beside him: "Don't make a sound!"
After saying that, he quickly rushed to the long table and extinguished the lights.
The entire Bag End was instantly plunged into darkness.
