105 The Unconscious Enemy

Fengon, the eldest son of Fengon, also had long black hair that was common to Nodo, but unlike the grey eyes of Nodo, his eyes were blue.

The night was shrouded in the sky, as bright and transparent as two stars falling from the mortal world.

Because the cavalry informed him in advance, he knew about the arrival of this nephew before Charles arrived.

Fengon didn't think as much as his younger brother Turgon thought.

So he was welcomed by Charles at the door of the fortress. As soon as he met, he gave Charles a hug and laughed happily, "I still remember your mother's appearance as a child who had not seen her growing up for many years. Why is her son so old in this blink of an eye? Haha!"

This person has the handsome and majestic appearance of a royal noble, but his figure is tall and burly. The straightforwardness in his voice sounds like a huge increase in favor, and he unconsciously loses a lot of strangeness.

Charles felt good about Fengon's first impression. During the conversation, he handed him the letter written by Tourgon and Arethir.

The traffic is inconvenient and the information circulation is very slow. Manwei's Big Eagle must not let them pay attention to irrelevant things except for important matters, so this kind of home letter is usually brought by "manpower".

At this time, Charles brought not only Fengon's letter, but also several letters from Fengon.

After taking it, the other party did not open it immediately, but put it away for the time being, and then welcomed Charles into the fortress. It was obviously very happy to see that look.

"I have been stationed in this mountain for many years. I haven't seen your mother for more than two hundred years, but now I'm even more surprised to see her son right in front of me."

He said happily as he walked.

Perhaps because the orcs are weak during the day and cannot march and usually come out at night. The soldiers garrisoned in this fortress standing on a steep spot on the hillside are also used to hiking out at night.

So although Charles arrived very late, after entering the huge fortress through the raised city gate, you can still see groups of elves busy soldiers.

They either polish their armor, practice with swords, talk to each other, or sing music...

Fengon is the leader here, so every elves he meets will salute him and then look at Charles with curious eyes.

Strangely, there is no light here, whether it is a torch or a candle.

"Why not ignite the fire?" he asked.

"A group of guys who are more timid than squirrels think that flames are the power and symbol of the enemy. In addition, there have been fires several times when building this fortress, so there are usually no fire here." Fengon replied in a casual tone, but his appearance is obviously not completely unbelievable.

Because of the three huge black volcanoes behind him, Charles could understand this. And I heard that every time Morgoth sent troops, the volcano would erupt...

Thoughtful Charles didn't think much, and was then taken to the main fortress by Fengon.

Then there was a sumptuous banquet.

As in the outside world, there is no light in this spacious main castle, but it does not seem very dark.

The clear moonlight shone through the skylight of the main castle hall. The many mirrors dotted around refract this light like small moons coming, which also makes this banquet in the glimmer a little elegant in the lively atmosphere.

The elves of Cinda and Nando are generally romantic and elegant, but the style of the Nodo tribe is full of sharpness.

They are strong and confident, and the inheritance from the Blessed Land also makes them look unique and can be distinguished from the Xinda tribe at a glance.

The Nodo army stationed here is even more straightforward and tough.

So much so that when talking, it was difficult for Charles to match the tags of these elves and sissy.

Although their appearance tends to be neutral.

The atmosphere at the banquet was warm, and Fengon was talking about various topics, from the various situations here, to the lives of their brothers and sisters when they were young, how strict and biased his father Fenguoye was, why did his mother not come to Middle-earth with them, etc.

But Charles did not forget his real purpose for coming here, so he asked about it after talking about the gossip about how Turgon fell in love with his wife.

Fengon waved his hand and said, "If there were any news, I would have tried to notify you, but there was no clue. I know not even more than you know, even that's a little bit. So come and drink! It's the time for the banquet, don't think about these troubles!"

So the other party just revealed this article.

Shire didn't ask much.

Compared with Turgon, who is called the wise man, this cheap uncle named Fengon is more straightforward, but it is not annoying. At the same time, he can also find that he is not a real reckless man, but just cares about the details.

After the fall of the last supreme king, Feaino, his successor, Mezlos, was captured by the enemy by tricks and hung on the towering rock wall at the gate of Angban.

Because of his personal relationship with him, this man went to rescue him alone and successfully rescued him, which led to the easing of the relationship between the two half-blooded men of the royal family and indirectly allowed his father to take over the authority of the Supreme King.

Fengon was therefore highly prestigious in all Nordo's hearts.

...

The banquet lasted for most of the night. The next day, Charles stayed in the fortress for another day at the invitation of Fengon, and then said goodbye to him.

In addition to learning about Eor's news, this trip was to visit Fennon and learn the spell.

There is no news about Eor at the moment, and Charles decided to accomplish another purpose, because it is not only about learning the spell itself, but also about his work of discovering secret texts...

But before leaving, he gave this enthusiastic uncle a gift.

"This is a special gem I created in Gundolin, and I think it should help my uncle."

"help?"

"Putting it in a pile of gems can fill other gems with light. This light passes very slowly and can last for a long time, which is more than enough for lighting."

Upon hearing this, Fengong solemnly put away the gift, and some of the officers who were around him looked at Charles with their eyes closer.

Even if the elves can move in a low light environment, if there is light, who will be happy to put themselves in the dark?

Especially the Nodo tribe, known as the Light Elves.

Most of them grew up in the blessed land of the West, and before they moved, the light shone forever. It was different from the Xinda tribe that reproduced under the glimmer of light.

So although this gift cannot enhance any of their practical strength, it is of great importance.

This is an extremely precious treasure.

All the elves here, including Fingong, think so.

But in fact, this gem was just made temporarily by Charles overnight after the banquet last night.

Unlike other elves jewelers, he can make this magic gem by repeating it as long as he studies the process and methods thoroughly. Although it is a bit time-consuming, it is not difficult.

It was just that repeated manufacturing was not helpful to him. The research and development of this kind of gem was just to lay the foundation for climbing a higher level. He didn't think this thing could do anything.

So besides the one I gave to Arethir at the beginning, Charles made only this other one.

Saying goodbye to the enthusiastic Nodo garrison, Charles embarked on the road ahead again.

However, compared to being alone before, a team of soldiers specially sent by Fengon behind him were followed.

It's more secure.

...

Just as Charles left the fort and marched towards Heslum, a conversation closely related to him was quietly under the dark ground of Angban in the north.

"Are you sure this thing works?"

"I'm sure, sir, this is a perfect finished product carefully improved by the villain... but if the great Milkor can capture Nakaner, the villain will be more confident..."

"The master did attract him, but he caught him..." The voice hesitated and then scolded: "Don't try to change the subject. If this thing doesn't work, I'll chop your head!"

...

Although Charle relied on the spreading pharmacology to unite the Nando tribes, he could not stop some bad intentions from stealing it for use.

The elves learned that the existence of this knowledge was very important, but the enemy was obviously not blind.
