Chapter 246 The Fall of the Double Tree 【Subscription】

When Manwë heard about the route Melkor had taken, he thought that Melkor was planning to escape back to his lair in the north of Middle-earth, so he asked Oromë and Tokas to rush north at full speed to see if they could catch him in time. Live him.

However, after crossing the coast of the Teleri tribe, in the uninhabited wilderness near the ice in the north, Oromi and Tokas could not find any trace or information about him. From then on, for the safety of Aman, , the northern barrier of Aman has been doubled alert...

When Rey, who had been living in Mandos, learned about this from Verre, he knew that everything the Valar had done was in vain.

Because as soon as the hunt started, Melkor had already returned to Aman. He turned into an elf (he was one of the Valar at this time and could change his appearance at any time), hid it from almost everyone, and quietly sneaked away. Looking for the big spider Wugoulian in the south.

However, facing Weirui's story, Rey also showed melancholy and fear. After all, according to his status as a traitor, this is how he should behave.

Rey did not tell the Valar the news he knew. After all, wasn't this the time he had been waiting for in Mandos for so many years? !Otherwise, what would he be doing here? !
As for why Rey knows this, of course it is not just because he has a golden finger to know this important plot, but because as a traitor under Melkor, Rey, who uses Melkor as fuel and tool, can be said to be the most powerful person in Aman. Pay attention to the people of Melkor. Paying attention to the actions of the former boss Melkor is the unshirkable responsibility of Rey, a rebellious boy.

After Feanor moved to Formenos, Rey changed his previous slackness in monitoring Melkor and began to pay close attention to the developments in Formenos, focusing half of his attention there at all times.

Although this affected Rey's learning progress, the hard work paid off. Rey successfully captured Melkor's figure inciting Feanor at the door of Feanor's house, and also understood Melkor's escape process with a feint.

Of course, Rey is just paying attention remotely in Mandos. After all, Rey doesn't want to go out yet, and this will also reduce his sense of existence as a voyeur.

While watching Melkor away from Valinor with his peripheral vision, Rey was also happy. After all, it was difficult for him to do anything when Melkor was in Valinor.

"Rey, don't worry. If you stay in Mandos, Melkor will never know about you. Moreover, he has angered all the Valar this time, and he will never dare to come back again..."

While Wei Rui was weaving the tapestry of time, she looked at the worried Rey and comforted her gently.Due to their long-term companionship, Wei Rui and Rey developed a deep friendship and the two became friends.

Wei Rui also has great trust and care for Rey as a friend. It can be said that Wei Rui has played a lot of role in the Vera's acceptance and trust of Rey. At this time, she is also deeply concerned about Rey. Know.

"Sigh... Wei Rui, I'm not only worried about myself, I'm thinking that if Melkor escapes from this life, he will definitely cause more harm to the world. I don't know how many lives will be destroyed. Have mercy on me, the world, and worry about it. So much..."

Lei Yi sighed softly, looked up at Jin Hui on the horizon and said with concern.

"Sigh... It's true... With Melkor escaping, there will be countless more dead souls in Mandos..."

Hearing this, Wei Rui gave her a slap in the face, and then she recovered after a while and said with emotion.

"Very...I feel that the war with Melkor is not far away, and it will definitely be more bloody and cruel than previous wars...Very, I plan to go to Valinor for a walk..."

Rey stood up and looked at Weirui, who was dressed in black gauze, and said slowly.

"Oh... war... Rey, you really should go out for a walk. For so many years, you have been staying here, only admiring Aman through the window... It's time to socialize with other Valar. Come on, there is Elda. The scenery and fun outside are not comparable to the deserted place of Mandos... I believe you will fall in love with Aman and Elda..."

Virui said to Rey while combing the spinning thread, with a look of joy on her face, and her words were full of blessings and joy for her friend to go to Valinor.

"Hahaha... I'm really looking forward to it, but I have to continue nagging you... I plan to travel in Valinor for half a day, and come to you for the other half to learn the secrets of time... You don't think I'm troublesome..."

"No trouble, my friend, I very much welcome friends to come to my place. You can stay here as long as you want. I welcome you to come to me at any time..."

Wei Rui said with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, Weirui... By the way, it's not good for me to go out like this now. My whole body is covered in flames... Weirui, what do you think of my appearance now..."

Wei Rui looked up. The man in front of her had a face as flawless as the purest white jade in the world. His golden blond hair shone like Luo Ruilin's glory. His pale golden pupils were as dazzling and charming as Luo Ruilin's flowers. His facial features were exquisite. , with a noble and noble temperament, restrained and exuding a distant and mysterious aura of a king, clean and dust-free, breathtakingly beautiful, yet full of masculinity, exuding a warm glow all over.

"Hehehe... Rey, you look like a Vanya... It seems that you have been yearning for the outside for a long time. Go and have fun and experience the beauty of Valinor. I believe you will fall in love with this place. …”

Wei Ruijiao said with a smile that regarding Rey's new image, Wei Rui felt that it was in line with the current environment of Aman and was much more pleasing to the eye than the previous image of Balrog.

As for beauty and ugliness, there is no difference to Vera. After all, the beauty and ugliness of appearance are only in their thoughts, and what they focus on is always the essence shown.

Of course, a personality similar to Vera's and a pleasing appearance can also make Vera feel pleasing to the eye and have a good impression. Maybe this is the reason for the huge difference in Vera's attitude towards elves and humans. The appearance may still be somewhat effect……

"Hahaha... This is the look I've been imagining for a long time before settling on... By the way, Weirui, since my appearance has changed, let's change my name too. From now on, when I show this look, you'll call me I am Anarigus (Adelaide)..."

"Anarregus, Golden Flame... That's great, it suits you very well... Well, Anaregus, I wish you a good time..."

Wei Rui winked at Rey and said with a slight smile.

Rey reached out and picked up the floating furnace behind him. The huge furnace quickly turned into a dazzling golden-red bead and was embedded in Rey's chest. He waved his hand towards Weirui and said with a smile: " The journey of exploring Aman begins around Mandos. See you soon, Verui..."

"Okay, see you later, Anarigus..."

Rey stepped away from the slightly dark and deserted Mandos, and slowly moved towards the bright and bright Valinor.

The remote paths are full of small white flowers, exuding a faint fragrance. The light in the sky covers the grass with a thin layer of golden gauze. The breeze moves gently, the twigs sway, the leaves rustle, everything is... Such beauty is just like Rey's mood.

Rey walked around in this picturesque and beautiful scenery. Although it was still deserted after walking for a while, and he didn't even meet an elf, Rey was not anxious at all. He was not in a hurry to experience Verin. Despite the beauty and liveliness of Nuo, his heart was still filled with peace and joy.

Rey knew very well how difficult it was for him to leave Mandos this time.

In the past nearly 3000 years (solar years), there was an alluring world of flowers and flowers outside, but in order to avoid leaking his identity and planning in his heart, he could only stay in the cold and deserted Mandos.

Although the joy of indulging in learning has diluted this dissatisfaction, and he can observe the outside world through the window, he still yearns for the freedom and beauty of Valinor.

This time, after waiting for the flowers to bloom and the moon to shine, Lei Yi felt a little confused with joy, but he was relieved about it.And Rey also knew that he was not yearning for the beautiful scenery outside as he said, but for the plan in his heart.

Rey raised his right hand towards the light source, and a black vortex formed in his palm. The black vortex seemed motionless, but it was greedily devouring the surrounding golden light. As the suction force exploded, Rey's side even became Darken up.

After a while, Rey made a fist with five fingers, put down his right hand, and slowly opened his palm. A small golden bead lay in the palm of his hand, emitting a faint golden light.

"Oh, I'm still a little bit behind, unqualified..."

Lei Yi casually pressed the golden bead into the golden red bead on his chest and sighed softly.

He was trying to capture the brilliance of the Two Sacred Trees like the Silmaril, but he failed.

Rey was not discouraged by the failure. After all, this was a unique treasure in the world of Middle-earth. If he could pick one out casually, it would be nothing.

Failure is normal. This is Rey's first attempt. He feels that as long as he improves slowly, he will always succeed. After all, Feanor, a "weak and ignorant" elf, can do things. There is no reason for him to work hard and have knowledge. The Ainur, who was profound and participated in the creation of the world, could not do it.

So, Rey slowly walked towards Valinor, while slowly rubbing the beads. If he failed, he stuffed the beads into the furnace. He was constantly summing up his experience and improving his methods. The beads became more and more obscure and fast. , and it is getting closer and closer to the goal in Rey's heart.

In this way, Rey walked slowly and rubbed beads during the day, and returned to Mandos at night to learn knowledge from Wei Rui's tapestry.

As time went by, he slowly got closer to Valinor, and met many elves and Maia who were attracted by his handsome appearance and strange behavior. However, Rey kept a distance from the elves. After all, time did not pass. Too much, he was in no mood to play around with these pointy ears.

One evening in early 1495 of the Double Tree Era, it took Rey three years to finally reach his loyal Valinor and reach the hills of Isiloha.

Rey walked through the green hills and came to the twin sacred trees that shone with silver and golden light. His eyes looked around, but he did not find Vera and Maiya. He began to gradually approach the twin sacred trees. , stretched out evil hands.

Rey bent down and lifted the two large buckets under the Twin Sacred Trees. Looking at the golden and silver dew in the buckets, Rey opened his mouth and drank it all.

"what?!"

Varda, who was hiding next to the Twin Sacred Trees, widened her eyes when she saw Rey drinking the dew. She couldn't help but exclaimed. She originally thought that Rey was going to do anything to the Twin Sacred Trees, and she was ready to stop it. , but she didn’t expect Rey to show her this.

"Hiccup~"

Rey put down the bucket, burped, touched his belly, and turned his head to look at Varda's position.

"Huh~?! Who, who is there?"

"Ray...no, Anarigus, it's me."

Immediately, Varda revealed her figure and looked at Rey with some embarrassment and surprise.

"Oh~! It's Varda~! It's been so long..."

Rey said with a smile, not embarrassed at all.

"Well, Anarigus, long time no see... Do you... do you... do you think this tastes good?"

Varda looked at the two empty barrels and asked curiously.

"Hmm~! I think it's pretty good... By the way, Varda, are your wells filled with the dew of the Double Holy Trees also drinkable?"

"Ah?! Of course, you can drink it as long as you like... But you have to leave some for me, and I will use them to decorate the stars in the sky..." "Hahaha... Don't worry, I won't finish it. , I just drank too much when I tasted it for the first time today, can you give me half of the dew in the future?"

"No problem at all."

"Then thank you so much, Varda...Sorry, the time is almost up, I have to go back to Mandos, see you tomorrow..."

"See you tomorrow... um... Anaregus, I won't be here every day. If you need to take half of it in the future..."

Varda frowned and looked at the figure fading away under the silver light and whispered softly. The silver light carried her voice to Rey's ears. Rey nodded and disappeared into the woods.

But Varda was standing under the tree, somewhat embarrassed. Thinking about what had just happened, she couldn't help but reflect: "Did the recent incident about Melkor make me too nervous?! In fact, I don't need to be like this, the two holy trees are Under the eyes of the Valar, the elves, Maia and Valar all love them and protect them, so how can they be in danger?! Or am I worrying too much..."

And Rey, who was rushing towards Mandos with a calm expression, was also full of joy, "I know how the Twin Sacred Trees, the treasures of Aman, could not be guarded. After all, the collapse of the giant lamp has happened. They should also grow up." I’ve gained experience...Thanks to my carefulness, I didn’t do anything extraordinary, so I plan to take it step by step...but at least I have gained something this time..."

Rey took off the golden-red orb on his chest and swallowed it into his belly. The dew that glowed with gold and silver slowly fell...

Just when Rey walked out of Mandos in a new look and approached the Two Sacred Trees step by step, Melkor also came to the foothills of the east of the Pelori Mountains and the narrow piece of land south of the Gulf of Eldama. The long and desolate coast continued southward, and Melkor came to a dark and lightless region that had never been explored by any means.

He entered the dark Avita region without being able to see it with the naked eye.Just under the vertical mountain wall and beside the cold and dark water, there is the deepest and thickest black shadow in the world.In this secretive Avita, Ugoliant lives quietly.

A long time ago, she, like Rey, was one of the gods Melkor first seduced into corruption, and was one of Melkor's collaborators.

However, during Melkor's escape, she ran away and no longer followed Melkor. She wanted to be the queen of her own desires and use all things to fill her emptiness.

She descended from the darkness outside Arda and settled there. She later fled to the south of Aman to escape the attacks of the Valar and the hunters of Oromë, who had always been wary of the north, and the south had long been ignored.She crept as close as she could to the light of the blessed place, for which she both hungered and hated.

She has the appearance of a spider monster and lives in a canyon, weaving her black webs on the cliffs.There she absorbed all the light she could find, and continued to weave that hazy and suffocating black web until no more light entered her lair, and she fell into a state of extreme hunger.

Melkor discovered the traces of this former collaborator through the dark authority he controlled and some clues, so he came to Avita to find her. He once again put on the appearance of the tyrant of Utumno: a tall and terrifying darkness. Demon Lord.From then on, he was always like this and couldn't change.

In the darkness, in the shadows where Manwë could not see even from the highest mountains, Melkor and Ungoliant plotted his revenge.

When Ugoliant understood Melkor's purpose, she began to struggle between desire and great fear; she did not want to provoke the feared masters of Aman for fear of getting angry, nor did she want to expose her secrets.

Therefore Melkor said to her, "Do as I say; and if you are still hungry after all this is done, I will give you whatever you ask for, and I will give it to you with both hands." He was just talking casually, as he always did: but he was laughing to himself.This is his usual tactic used by big thieves to trick little thieves into taking the bait.

Ugoliant weaved a great cloak of darkness to cover Melkor and himself, and prepared to set off: only a dark and lightless thing was seen, as if it were nothing, and the eyes could not penetrate and see, that was the void.

She began to weave a cobweb, thread by thread, climbing from one mountain face to another, climbing over protruding rocks and pinnacles, climbing up and down, until she finally climbed to the top of Hermentir's mountain. The summit is the highest mountain in the area, far away from Taniquetil in the north.

The Valar did not set a warning here, because west of the Pelori Mountains was an empty land lying in the twilight. Looking out from the east of the mountains, except for the forgotten Avita, there was only the vast sea with a dark watery light.

Ungoliant, who was lying on the top of the mountain, made a long ladder rope and hung it down. Melkor climbed up the ladder to the top of the mountain, stood next to her, and looked down at the "protected territory".

Before them were the forests of Oromë, and to the west the gleaming fields and meadows of Yavanna, the rich golden wheatfields of the gods.But Melkor gazed upon the shining plains far to the north, where Vomar lay in the silvery dawn of Telperion and Laurelin.

Melkor laughed and leapt down the long steep slope to the west; Ugoliant followed close behind, covering their tracks with darkness.

This was the time to celebrate the harvest, and Melkor knew this well.

Although the seasons and the tides all move according to the will of the Valar, there is no dead winter in Valinor. The Valar choose to live in the Kingdom of Arda, which is only a small territory in the vast universe; the universe Life is time, time begins with the first note of Eru and will end with the last chord.

When the Valar rejoiced, they took on the physical form of the children of Ilúvatar, so they ate and drank, and they gathered the fruits of Yavanna that grew on the earth, which they had made according to the will of Eru. of.

Therefore, Yavanna set a time for all things in Valinor to grow, bloom, and bear fruit; every time the first harvest came, Manwë would hold a great feast in Teniquetil to praise Eru, and all the people of Valinor Residents will gather happily on the mountain to play music and sing together.

Now is the time to celebrate. The banquet hosted by Manwe this time is the most grand and grand since Elda came to Aman.

Although Melkor's escape foreshadowed the toil and sorrow in the future, in fact no one dared to say how many more disasters Arda would suffer before he was captured again, but Manwë decided to cure Nora first this time. The evil of division among many peoples; he commanded that all the Noldor should come to the palace on Mount Tenequidir, and put aside the bad blood between their two princes, and forget entirely the lies spread by their enemies.

All the children of Ilúvatar gathered in the halls of Manwë, enjoying the delicious food and praising them.No one expected that Melkor would cause trouble in this grand celebration, and no one thought that Melkor would come here again and bring another helper.

The Vanyar came to the banquet, and the Noldor of Tirion also came. The Maia came together, and every Valar attended in majesty and beauty; Sing loudly with Varda, or dance joyfully on the green hillside to the west facing the twin sacred trees.

On this day, the streets of Walmar City were deserted, the stairs of Tirion were silent, and the earth slept in peace.Only the Teleri on the other side of the mountains still sing by the sea, and they pay no heed to the seasons, nor to the time, nor to the rulers of Arda, nor to the shadows that fall upon Valinor, for as before, The shadow did not disturb them.

Of course, Rey did not attend the banquet. After all, he knew that nothing good would happen at such a happy banquet.

What's more, when Virui and Mandos introduced the purpose of the banquet to Rey a few days ago, Rey became even less interested after confirming the current time point.

It is a complete tragedy scene, but it is a waste of time and mood to go there.Moreover, in the last few days of Rey's available time, Rey did not want to waste it at all, but devoted himself wholeheartedly to the "copying" of the Silmarillion.

Therefore, while the Valar and the elves were feasting, Rey nestled in Mandos's room, sincerely sang a few hymns to the great Eru in the hope of good luck, and then started the Elf treasure journey. A new round of production of "replicas".

In the hall of celebration, the children of Iluvita gathered together.They enjoyed good wine and food, and played and sang for the Valar!Each musical instrument was taken out by the elves. The elegantly dressed elves asked to pluck the strings or play the trumpets. The elegant notes formed a picture of a prosperous age.

The Vanya elves and Noldor elves who came to the feast were together.They all wore gorgeous clothes, elegant and glamorous.

Only one thing frustrates Manwë's plan.Fëanor did come, for Manwët did not wish him to come; but Finwë did not come, and neither did the other Noldor who dwelt in Formenoth.

Finwë said: "As long as the ban remains on my son Fëanor, that he shall not return to Tirion, then I will not be king, nor will I see my people."

Feanor did not wear the fine clothes for the banquet, nor did he wear any beautiful ornaments. There was no gold, silver, or precious stones.And he refused to let the Valar and the Eldar see the Silmarils, locking them up in the iron-walled chamber of Formenos and not bringing them with him.

Now, he was face to face with Finguopan in front of Manwe's seat, and he expressed his reconciliation; Finguopan also canceled his brother's sword against him.Feng Guopan stepped forward and stretched out his hand, saying: "What I promised before, I now practice. I forgive you and no longer hold grudges about the past."

Fëanor held out his hands, but said nothing.

Fingolfin added: "Although we are half-blood brothers, in my heart you are [-]% the eldest brother. If you lead, I will follow. I hope there will be no new misfortunes to divide us."

"I heard you," said Fëanor. "As you wish."

The words were spoken lightly, but they did not know what consequences their words would bear.

It's a good thing that Rey wasn't there, otherwise he would have had to toast this good brother Feng Guopan a few glasses of wine when he saw the scene where Feng Guopan was giving someone a name and a name. The truth has made the Noldor people miserable.

Just as Fëanor and Fingolfin stood before Manwë, the moment of soft light came, and the two sacred trees emitted light, and the silent city of Walmar was filled with silver and golden brilliance.

It was at this moment when the children of Ilúvatar gathered together that Melkor and Ugoliant hurried across the fields of Valinor, hiding in cloaks woven with shadows, as if dark clouds passed lightly over the sunlit land, and came to The Twin Sacred Tree Telperian, the location of Lorilin, is faintly gone!

Looking at the two sacred trees that brought light to the world in front of him, Melkor smiled coldly. With a grim face, he took out a black spear.

Immediately afterwards, he mercilessly pierced the core of the twin sacred trees, causing them to suffer heavy damage with one blow!A large amount of golden and silver juice spurted out like blood, staining the land where they lived. A wailing call spread throughout Aman, alarming the Valar and the elves who were celebrating the holy ceremony.

Ugoliant leaned over and sucked hard. Her pitch-black mouth kept taking turns to stick to the wounds of the two holy trees until they were completely sucked dry; while the death venom in her body was injected into their meridians, making them The roots, branches, and leaves all wither, and eventually the entire tree dies.And Ugoliant immediately lay down, his sharp mouth sucking the sap flowing out of Telperian and the others.

Melkor on the side pushed them down immediately. Ugoliant saw this and kept sucking on Telperion and Laurelin.And the venom stored in the poison sacs was injected into their meridians. The leaves, branches and roots withered one after another, and the light of gold and silver dimmed.

The mournful calls were heard one after another.However, Wugoliant didn't care about this. She sucked hard, taking turns sucking on the fallen two holy trees until all the sap in their bodies was sucked out.

But after taking all this, she still felt that she was extremely thirsty, so she drank up all of Varda's well one after another, leaving no trace behind.As she drank, the poisonous mist continued to spew out. Under the attack of the poisonous mist, the green mountains began to faintly fall and begin to die.Moreover, her body continued to expand, and eventually, she expanded into an ugly monster that even Melkor was afraid of.

The light went out, but the darkness that followed was worse than the loss of light.Darkness fell over Valinor, and the darkness of that hour seemed not to be due to a lack of light, but to be a physical presence: a malevolence that extinguished light, had the power to pierce the eyes, invade hearts and minds, and strangle. Every strand of will.

Varda looked down from Teniquetil and saw a black shadow rising suddenly like a dark tower; the whole of Walmar seemed to be sinking in the dark sea.In a blink of an eye, only the Holy Mountain was left standing alone like an island in a sunken world.

All singing stopped.There was deathly silence in Valinor, and no sound could be heard, except for the cry of the Teleri elves in the distance carried by the wind across the mountains, like the cold and shrill call of a seagull.At that time, cold winds blew from the east, and the shadows of the sea impacted the unmoving coast one after another.

Manwë looked out from his throne high up, and only his eyes could penetrate the night, until he saw a mass of impenetrable darkness in the very distance that was deeper than the darkness. It was quite huge and was running towards the sky at an extremely fast speed. North; therefore he knew that it was Melkor, who had come and gone.

The pursuit began, and the earth shook under the hooves of Oromë's army. The sparks under Nahar's hooves were the first light to return to Valinor.

But soon, the Valar knights who caught up with the dark clouds ejected by Ugoliant were immediately stunned into seeing nothing. They scattered in confusion in the darkness, not knowing which direction to go; Villa Loma's The voice hesitated, wavered, and finally faded.

Tokas is another god who fell into the trap of darkness. He stood in the darkness and punched the air, unable to exert his power at all.By the time the darkness passed, it was too late to pursue him - Melkor had disappeared, and his revenge was completely successful...
