Hearing this, Frodo couldn't help but curl his lips reluctantly.

What's going on? Gandalf said so well before, he really thought that Gandalf had everything in mind because he had captured Gollum, the evil former owner of the Lord of the Rings!

In the end, who would have thought that Gandalf was extremely detailed and even told ancient historical stories in the first person. In the end, he did not even mention that Gollum, who had hidden a lot of secret and key information in his body, was completely captured. Instead, at that critical moment, he listened to what kind of story.

Sage Luman’s advice allowed Gulu to escape in full view of the public so easily!

Well, now, Bilbo had already given himself the Supreme Lord of Commandment Ring that belonged to the Dark Lord many years ago.

For those who have been ignorant of these secrets for more than ten years, and even risked being kidnapped, assassinated, or even more terrifying dangers by the orc army and other evil servants hiding in the darkness who have never appeared,

But he has always been the little hobbit who has never been in a fight since he was a child!

Thinking of this, even if he is usually as broad-minded as Frodo, he can't help but feel a new sense of boundless fear at this moment.

After Gandalf explained in detail the legendary and historical story about the real owner of the Ring, the Dark Lord Sauron, and his gang of evil servants, plus the tragic experience of Gollum, the owner of the Ring before Bilbo,

Everything seems to point to the fact that as the owner of the Lord of the Rings, he will encounter the hostility of Sauron and his followers.

If he wanted to risk being corrupted and controlled by the Lord of the Rings, and eventually falling into the painful price of failing to fight and becoming an unconscious puppet walking in the nether world, then he would rather not hold the Lord of the Rings any more! Yes, who can say that?

Do you have to keep this ring?!

Thinking of this, Frodo's eyes suddenly lit up. However, it seemed that he deliberately pretended not to see it, or maybe Gandalf himself had devoted all his attention to explaining the history of the Lord of the Rings to him. Anyway, this knowledgeable and wise man

The gray-robed wizard was still as busy as before and continued to talk about the reasons and consequences of why he let Gollum go.

"That was almost many years ago. Soon after, I realized this serious problem. Since then, I have conducted many dangerous explorations in order to make up for this mistake. After Bilbo left here, I again

Start tracking Gollum; but the traces he left have long been destroyed. Regarding that tracking, my good friend Strider Old Aragorn did a lot of work. He is simply a good tracker and a rare genius! At first,

The two of us could only do our best to search for traces of Gulu's escape in the wasteland, without much hope. But in the end, when I had given up on this path and turned to think about other solutions, my friend finally found it.

Guru. My friend went through many hardships to bring this poor guy back."

"He was unwilling to reveal what he had gone through before. He just kept crying, accusing us of being cruel, and making gurgling sounds in his throat. When we asked, he would just keep wailing, like a hurt little child.

It licked its twisted fingers like a dog, as if it had suffered great pain during those days. All these performances proved that it had suffered some terrible and cruel torture. Although I really don’t want to say this, everything

All the clues point out that Gollum walked all the way to the dark land at the end of the south, and finally entered Mordor, the base of the Dark Lord Sauron."

For a moment, there was only unspeakable silence in the room. It was so quiet that Frodo could hear his own heartbeat. Even after hearing what Gandalf said, Frodo could already imagine the subsequent dark development. After all, he could

How could the past that made the evil Gollum so unwilling to respond be so cruel and terrifying?!

"As I told you about the location before, Mordor is also where Mount Doom is where the Ring of Dominance was cast." Gandalf said. "Mordor can be considered an extremely evil place. The reason why I say that,

Not only because there are countless evil servants who succumb to the dark desires in their hearts, but also because Mordor itself has the strange ability to summon the evil creatures in the world. The evil creatures that Gollum has been talking about will help him to confront Bill.

Bo’s new friends for revenge, I’m afraid he’s talking about these servants of darkness who live in Mordor’s prison and torture it!”

"From this point of view, Gollum's series of actions are not only stupid, but also lead to very terrible consequences. Sooner or later, when he is sneaking around the borders of Mordor, he will be arrested and questioned. As mentioned before

, through countless days of unremitting exploration and tracking in human dwarf towns, Gollum has already obtained the important information that the ferocious half-orcs have been waiting for for a long time - the whereabouts of Bilbo. He could not withstand those cruel half-orcs.

It was beaten and interrogated by the orcs, and it must have done the most destructive thing to this world during that time, which was to reveal Bilbo's whereabouts and whereabouts to the orcs."

"Yes, it was through the information of Gollum, a little monster whose body was contaminated with the aura of the Lord of the Rings, that the returning Demon King learned that the Lord of the Rings had not been destroyed by the elves. The clever and witty man from the Shire region

It seems that it was then that the hobbit Bilbo Barkin officially came into the attention of the unparalleled demon king."

"Even if the Demon King has not confirmed the location of the Shire, he may be looking for it now. It is precisely because of this, Frodo, your position may not be safe now!"

"Oh my God! Am I having some horrible nightmare?" Frodo shouted. "Gandalf, what do you think I should do? Bilbo really shouldn't have let Gollum go, that hateful and pathetic little boy.

Why wasn’t the monster given a stick by the orc soldiers passing by?”

"I don't agree with you on this point, Frodo. We should not murder others. Frodo, the reason why Bilbo has been able to resist the Ring's corruption of his mind for so long is all due to his long-lasting

A kind heart. Against such a terrifying magic ring as the Ring of Dominance, perhaps compassion and kindness are the only secrets to sticking to your true heart."

"I'm sorry," said Frodo. "But I'm really frightened, and I really can't pity Gollum."

"You have not seen him," interposed Gandalf.

"Yes, but I don't want to see him either," said Frodo. "I really don't understand you. Did you just mean that after Gollum did so many evil deeds, you and the elves actually let him leave alive?

?No matter from any angle, he is as evil as the orcs, and he is our enemy. He deserved to be killed."

"You deserve it! I don't think so. Many people who are still alive in the world should have died long ago; many people who are not destined to die have passed away. Can you bring them back to life? If not, don't judge others' life and death so easily. Even if

Even the wisest person cannot think things through. I don't think Gollum can be cured before his death, but the chance still exists. Moreover, his fate has long been closely tied to the Lord of the Rings.

My intuition told me that Gollum might have some unexpected magical effect in the subsequent operation to destroy the Lord of the Rings. To a certain extent, he was also irreplaceable. In any case, I did not kill him decisively until the end.

It. The wood elves kept him in prison, waiting for the day when it could play a great role."

"Anyway," Frodo said, "Maybe everything you predicted was right, but why didn't you take action earlier! I just think it was too late for you to come today. Why didn't you call

Do I throw it away, or, or destroy it?"

"Destroy it?" the wizard said. "Didn't you listen just now? As your friend, I advise you as a wizard that it is not a wise choice to just throw away the Lord of the Rings. These Lord of the Rings can make you

It was found at a special time. Just like when the Lord of the Rings bewitched Gollum and became Gollum from the Hobbit, it would be an unimaginable disaster if the Lord of the Rings were obtained by an evil person, or even the Dark Lord Sauron.

This is inevitable, because it is the Supreme Lord of the Rings, the key to the decisive battle that the devil has worked hard to win."

"Of course, my dear Frodo, this is dangerous for you; and I am extremely troubled by it. But in the face of such a great crisis, I must take risks; whenever I am far away from the Shire's

At that time, someone must take over and look after this place. As long as you don't use the Lord of the Rings, I don't think it will have any side effects on you, and even if it does, it won't affect you for too long. Don't forget, when I parted from you nine years ago

At that time, I knew very little about The Lord of the Rings."

"It's still the same old question. Since you have learned these dark and evil news and intelligence, why don't you try to destroy this ring? Even if you are far away and it is inconvenient to come directly to the Shire area, you can still send me a letter directly.

Come on! You sent me a letter asking me to destroy this damn Lord of the Rings, and I still won’t do it? Why are you delaying until now to try to come to me and talk about these things?"

"Oh? Are you sure? Frodo, if I did send you a letter, how could you try to destroy the Ring?"

"Ah, I didn't think much about it beforehand. But maybe I can go to the blacksmith shop in the town and borrow the high-temperature furnace of the blacksmith to melt this damn Lord of the Rings! Even if I can't borrow the furnace, I can still try to use it.

The hammer smashed this ring to pieces!"

"Well, it seems that Frodo, you know nothing about the strength of the Ring!" Gandalf said. "For now, let's not say so much. You can try now to see if you can use conventional external means to destroy this ring."

The Lord of the Rings. Practice will tell us all the cruel results."

After hearing Gandalf's strange words, which seemed to have known something for a long time, Frodo immediately stretched out his hand and took the ring back to his eyes.

It has to be said that after listening to Gandalf explain so much about the dark power of the Ring of Dominance and the evil energy contained in it, Frodo felt an extremely strange feeling all over his body just by holding it in his hand. .

It now looks very simple and smooth, without any traces visible to the naked eye. The gold ring looks very pure and beautiful. Frodo thinks its color is so beautiful and gorgeous; the shape of this ring is almost perfect. This is a treasure that should be appreciated. When he took out the ring, he was ready to throw it into the flames. But he found that he could not do it unless he gritted his teeth. He played with the ring, Hesitating, he forced himself to recall everything Gandalf had just said. Then he made up his mind and moved his hand. He was about to throw it away, but found that he had involuntarily put the ring back into his pocket.

Gandalf smiled helplessly as if he had already understood all this phenomenon beforehand.

Then I heard him say in a low tone: "Now you understand why I didn't come to you to deal with this ring earlier, right? Frodo, I'm sorry to tell you that before this ring made up its mind to give up on you, you Its temporarily selected owner will never be able to actively discard it or destroy it.

Regarding this point, even if I want to help you, I can't do it without hurting your spirit. Moreover, as the current owner of the Lord of the Rings, you only have some mortal strength, even with a sledgehammer. Nothing can be done to the Ring. Simply put, none of the people of time, including you and I, can destroy the Ring through our own methods."

"As for the method you mentioned earlier of using the blacksmith's fiery furnace to destroy the Lord of the Rings, it is also not very useful. In fact, as far as I know, in the past, people with the high-temperature properties of flames could melt ordinary Lord of the Rings. There are only those flaming dragons that soar in the sky. But in this era, the last flaming dragon that was not a cold dragon, Smaug, had already died at the end of the Lonely Mountain expedition that Bilbo participated in. Perhaps it should be said that you The Lord of the Rings in my hand, as the King of the Rings, carries most of the power of the Dark Lord Sauron. Almost no flames can harm it at all. Even Ankaragun, the most magnificent among the flaming dragons, cannot do it. This point. Even if the dragon's dragon flames are more powerful and surging, they can't compare to the blazing magma of the Doomsday volcano."

"If you really want to destroy the Lord of the Rings so that the devil can no longer get his hands on it, I'm afraid you can only completely destroy it by throwing the Ring into the Mount Doom where Sauron cast it."

"I really want to destroy the Ring!" Frodo shouted. "Believe me, there seems to be no one in the world who can lead this ring to destruction more than I do. If I can, I really want this ring to be destroyed. Never appeared! Why did it want me to be its owner? Why did it choose me?"
