Chapter 239 Double Tree Era 【Subscription】

The two giant lamps fell, and the whole continent of Arda was broken into three pieces. The places where they fell formed the inner sea of ​​Helkan and the inner sea of ​​Ringir respectively. The fire spread across the land, and the flames chased the life on the ground, and the animals were everywhere. Escape...

"So ends the spring of Arda... Melkor..."

Yavanna looked at the world in front of her that had plunged into darkness again, and the remains of animals and plants that had turned into black coals and ashes in the raging fire. She felt extremely lost. All the things she had worked hard to create for countless years were destroyed. For Melkor also became more and more disgusted.

However, it's a pity that after they calmed down the aftermath of the collapse of the giant lamp, Melkor didn't know where to hide for a long time, and no matter how resentful he was to Melkow in his heart, he couldn't vent it.

Moreover, the Valar's residence on the island of Almaren has been completely destroyed, and Arda is also in chaos and disaster. Facing Arda in a mess, the Valar who have spent countless efforts in vain are disheartened.

They temporarily gave up on rebuilding Arda, left Middle-earth, and moved to the westernmost land of all lands, Aman, which is located on the edge of the world. The east coast of Aman is the Sea of ​​Beleghar, which is also the "Western Sea". "The end of the sea".

But Ulmo loved the Arda continent deeply, and he was never willing to abandon it. He was the last one to move to Aman continent. After moving, he still often returned to Arda through the water vein, using his power to help all living beings secretly; unless there was something urgent, He rarely appears to gather with the Valar...

"Hahaha... The Valar are really indulging in pleasure... They are not worthy of ruling Arda at all... The whole world has fallen into darkness and flames again... Arda is finally back under my control... Go...to spread my name...to hunt powerful prey..."

Melkor looked at Vera and Maia who turned away and sent a disdainful sneer, and said to the army of Balrog and monsters in the fortress.

"Hehehe... It's all my lord's wisdom... I defeated these shameful Valar... Yiya will definitely belong to my lord..."

The Balrog, who had been deeply corrupted by Melkor's dark power, grinned and said with fanaticism in his eyes.

"That's right... Yiya will definitely belong to my lord..." xN
The Balrogs below agreed one after another, and then with a wave of Melkor's big hand, the overwhelming Balrogs and monsters emerged from the shadows in the corners of the mountains. They looked at the man in front of them who was plunged into darkness, with a strong burning... The world of Jiao Qi fell into a carnival.

One by one, they picked up whips, long knives, and giant hammers, and spread out in all directions, having fun wildly.

"Hahaha... Alda, I'm here..."

"Hey hey hey... little guy... don't run away..."

……

The fire demons and monsters who have been in the underground and void for tens of thousands of years (solar years) can finally let go of their true nature and go crazy.All the negative emotions accumulated over these long years were finally ignited at this time and began to be vented in an intensified manner.

Looking at the still-living Alda, the twisted mind and violent nature caused by the darkness in her heart began to attack, and she began to wield weapons to destroy all visible living creatures and torture those animals that tried to escape.

Rey did not participate in this carnival, because he was stronger and had mastered the relevant talents. Rey had already been able to control his soul and mood and would not be corrupted by Melkor's dark power.

However, he was also very gregarious and went crazy. After all, it was not good for me to wake up alone when everyone was drunk. He picked up the furnace behind him and slammed it into a small hill with lush vegetation.

Like a meteor hitting the ground, a flame mushroom cloud tens of meters high rose into the air, and a violent flame shock wave swept across a hundred meters in radius. Everything within the attack range was destroyed and turned into a puddle of ashes.

Cracks as wide as a person surrounded the center of the impact like a spider web. In the center of the impact, a magma lake tens of meters wide was rolling with hot magma. Rey threw away the furnace in his hand and jumped into it...

Although it was speculated that Melkor had returned to Middle-earth and was hiding in a corner, the Valar were unable to capture him for a while. Therefore, in order to prevent Melkor from taking the opportunity to sneak attack again, after arriving at their new home, the Valar prepared for themselves Put up barriers to their residences.

They built the Pelóri, the highest mountain range on earth, on the coast of Aman, also known as the Aman Mountains.

On the highest peak of the Pelori Mountains, Manwë set his throne.When Manwë and Varda looked out from their palace on Mount Teniquetil, they could even see across the land to the end of the east.

Within the walls of Pelori, the Valar established their kingdom of Valinor, where they built their own palaces, castles, gardens, and towers.

In this protected land the Valar placed in it all the beauties salvaged from the catastrophe, and created great sources of light; Became more pleasing to the eye than the beauty of Middle-earth in the spring of Arda.

This land is full of blessings, for the immortal spirit dwells in it, and everything there never fades, not a flower or a leaf is defiled, and everything that grows is harmless and diseaseless; all stones and water are They were also canonized.

When the construction of Valinor was completed and the palaces of the Valar were built, they built the city of Valima on the central plain with a hundred bells ringing.

In front of the west city gate, there was a green hill called Isiloha or Cloleri Circle. Yavanna made it holy, and then sat on its green lawn for a long time and sang songs of power, uniting all the people on the earth. Everything she thought about growing up was put into song.

Nina, on the other hand, was thinking silently, watering the soil under her feet with tears.At that time, the Valar gathered there to listen to the song of Yavanna, and they each sat quietly on their thrones. These thrones formed a circle - the "circle of judgment" (later the elves called it Mahanasar,) , it is the place where the Valar hold meetings and carry out judgment.

Yavanna Chimentari sang before the Valar, who sat and watched.Under their gaze, two slender sprouts sprouted from the ground on the hill. At that time, except for Yavanna's singing, the earth was completely silent.

In her singing, two beautiful saplings grew tall and strong, and were ready to bud; from then on, there were two holy trees of Valinor in the world (among the thousands of plants Yavanna made, the two holy trees were the most beautiful) Prestigious, every ancient legend records their fate.).

One of the two sacred trees has dark green leaves, and the back of the leaves shines with silver light. On its countless flowers, each one contains dewdrops that emit silver light and continue to fall. Its fluttering leaves are on the ground. Cast a little silver light.

The leaves of another tree are tender green, like new beech birches, and the edges of each of her leaves are shining with golden light.Her flowers are like clusters of golden flames, swaying on every branch, and these brilliant little horns arranged in clusters are swaying and shedding golden rains.

The flowers of the Twin Sacred Trees not only bring warmth, but also bring extremely brilliant light.The two sacred trees of Valinor have been given many different names. The one that shines with silver light is often called Telperion, also called Silpian or Ninqueroth; the one that shines with golden light is called Called Lorelin, also known as Melinada or Culurien.

Within seven hours, the light of the two trees changes from loss to prosperity, and then gradually weakens from prosperity; each of them will wake up and start to shine an hour before the light of the other tree is completely extinguished.

Therefore, in Valinor twice a day there was an hour, because the light of the two trees was very weak, and the gold and silver were mingled and fused, so that the whole place was full of soft light.

Terperion was older, and was the first to bloom. When he first blossomed and opened his pistils, the silver gleam brought the first dawn to Valinor, for time was never counted in Valinor. However, this moment was named "The Beginning of the Hours", and the Valar began to count the years of their rule in Valinor.

So on the first day and every happy day thereafter, until Valinor turned dark, the flower of Telperion closed at the sixth hour, and the flower of Laurelin at the twelfth hour.

The Valar's day count in Aman was twelve hours a day, and the second soft light of the two trees intertwined as the end of the day. At that time, the light of Lorelin gradually weakened, and the light of Telperion gradually brightened.The light emanating from the Two Trees lingers for a long time before being released into the air or sinking into the ground.

Varda used huge wooden barrels to collect the dew from Telperion and the rain from Laurelin. The barrels of gold or silver dew were like shining lakes, so bright lights can be seen everywhere in the Valar's territory. of brilliance and water.Thus began the count of the happy years of Valinor, and this was the beginning of the reckoning of time.

As time goes by, as the time approaches the arrival of the firstborn children destined by Ilúvatar, Middle-earth still lies under a sky of twinkling stars. Those stars are the result of Varda's hard work in the universe in ancient times. .

Melkor dwells in the darkest depths, but still he leaves his lair, and roams the lands in terrible and powerful forms, commanding ice and fire from the highest mountain peaks to the deepest furnaces.

In these days shrouded in darkness, all the cruelty, violence and death on the earth were planned and brought about by Melkor. With the help of his minions, Melkor became notorious in the continent of Arda and became the leader of all Arda. The monarch who fears life.

When Melkor led his men to dominate Arda, spreading darkness and polluting the earth.

Although the Valar rarely left the beautiful and joyful Valinor and crossed the mountains to Middle-earth, they still cared and loved the land east of Pelori.Aulë, who lives in the central area of ​​the "Blessed Land", is often busy day and night.He played a great role in creating this land and everything in it. He created many beautiful and beautiful works, some in public and some in secret.

All knowledge and learning about the earth and all the substances in it come from Aulë - including knowledge that can only be understood but not applied, or all knowledge about crafts: from weaving skills, carpentry skills to metallurgical skills, and all farming skills. However, the work of farmers and all things related to growth and fruitfulness were also under the jurisdiction of Aulë's wife, Yavanna Chimenteri.

The highest and most sacred among the Valar is Manwë. He sits on the highest place on the border of Aman, and he has never forgotten the land on the other side of the ocean.His throne is set on the summit of Teniquetil, the highest mountain in the world, on the edge of the sea.

Gods shaped like great falcons soared to and fro in his palace, their eyes seeing into the depths of the sea and penetrating into hidden caves beneath the earth.

Thus they may bring to Manwë news of what is happening in all parts of Arda; yet there are things which escaped the eyes of Manwë and his hosts, the dark mind of Melkor hidden in impenetrable shadows. .

Manwë never wanted to gain fame for himself, nor was he jealous of power and power. He only wanted to rule the earth and everything in it with peace.

His form is blue, with blue fire flashing in his eyes. He is designated as the representative of Ilúvatar, the king of the Valar, the elves and the human world, leading all living beings to fight against the evil of Melkor.

With Manwë lived the celestially beautiful Varda, whose Sindarin name was Elberoth, Queen of the Valar, Maker of the Stars; and in their blessed palaces lived a host of of gods.

Ulmo, who lived alone, did not live in Valinor, and he rarely came to Aman unless there were important matters that required a meeting to be decided; he had lived in the Outer Sea since the beginning of Arda, and he still lives today.

He rules over all the waters that flow on the face of the earth, over all the tides, over all the rivers that curve their way, over all the springs that overflow, over all the dew that evaporates under the firmament, and over all the rain that falls on every land.

In the depths of the sea he meditated on the great and terrible music; the echoes of this music, with sorrow and joy, ran through all the blood of the earth; if the fountain under the sun was full of joy, its source was in the foundation of the earth. That ancient well of measurable sorrow.

Ulmo gave Oce and Unni, who ruled over all the inner seas and waves, and many gods to help him.

Thus, by the power of Ulmo, though the darkness of Melkor filled the earth, yet life flowed through many secret springs, and the earth did not die.

Ulmo hears the voices of all who are lost in darkness and wander far from the light of the Valar.

Nor has he ever abandoned Middle-earth, no matter what turmoil, destruction, and change the world has undergone, he has never ceased to care for it, as it was, as it is now, and as it will be in the future, until the end of the world.

During this period when Arda was ruled by darkness, Yavanna was also unwilling to completely abandon that land; for all the plants that grew there were her treasures, and the works she created for herself in Middle-earth were Wounded by Melkor and deeply mourned.

Therefore, every once in a while, she would leave Aulë's residence and flower-filled Valinor and go to Middle-earth to heal the harm caused by Melkor.

Whenever she returns from Middle-earth, she always urges the Valar to declare war on Melkor's evil rule. They must do this before the firstborn children of Ilúvatar arrive.

Oromë would also go to Middle-earth from time to time, galloping on horseback in the dark and lightless forests; he brought his bow and arrows and spears, like a majestic hunter, hunting down and killing all the monsters and monsters under Melkor's rule. The horse Nahal shines like silver in the deep shadows.

The sleeping earth trembles and trembles under the hoofs of his golden horses, and in the dim light of the earth Oromë will blow his great horn Valaroma over the plains of Arda, and the mountains will echo with the sound of the trumpet, evil All the evildoers heard the sound and ran away.

Melkor himself was even more afraid and cowered in Utumno, anticipating the coming wrath. After all, Melkor knew it in his heart - this time he would definitely offend the Valar.

But every time Oromë left, Melkor's servants would gather again, and the land would once again be filled with shadows and deceit...

"Tick...tick..."

The sound of hooves gradually faded away.

"Gollum...gollum..."

The magma kept churning in the crater, and wisps of black smoke rose from the magma.

Two flaming ferocious heads slowly rose from the magma pool, and drops of red magma rolled down from their foreheads.

"He's gone..."

"That's right...it's gone far..."

Rey leaned on the sloping wall of the crater, soaking in the cool lava, squinting his eyes slightly and replied lazily.

"But let me tell you, Rey, with our strength... we are not afraid of Oromi at all... He is not his brother-in-law Tuokas..."

Gosmog looked at the shrunken and glowing furnace and said with some disdain.

"Be careful in everything... We must not expose my lord's status..."

"Hahaha... That's right, it's better to be careful... Rey, your strength has improved a lot recently... and why is your furnace no longer absorbing magma..."

Glancing at Gosmorg, Rey knew without even thinking that he was asking himself questions on behalf of Sauron or Melkor.

Squinting his eyes and looking at the faint golden light in the far west, Rey couldn't help rubbing his fingers for a while. He knew that this was the Twin Sacred Tree that Vera had obtained in Valinor.

The appearance of the Double Sacred Trees means that Iluvita's first-born elves are about to wake up, and it also means that Melkor is already a grasshopper after autumn, and it may be possible to see Melkul's downfall in the near future. Damn it, a long and peaceful life can also have some other joys.

Of course, this is not long for Enu. In fact, Rey still has to endure it for a long time. Of course, all this does not prevent Rey from being in a good mood now.

Rey did not choose to hide it, but told the truth.

"That's right... After shooting down the giant lantern with you last time... my strength has improved to a certain extent... Goth Mog, I feel that I am as strong as you now..."

"As for the furnace, of course it's because the temperature of the magma is too low, causing the furnace to not be warm at all... I need new firewood..."

"Oh... Is that so... Great... My Lord has another powerful help..."
