Chapter 58 Planning and Strategy

For the elves now, their favorite thing to do every morning is to watch the sunrise from the heights of Dawn City. The snow-capped mountains dyed golden by the morning sun's light can't simply be described as spectacular.

When the afternoon sun gradually becomes hotter, the lower levels of Dawn City are more to the elves' liking. Specks of light filter through the gaps in the branches. The water lilies and lotus flowers on the wetland ground emit bursts of fragrance. Various fish swim back and forth in the clear water, as if swimming in the air, and the textures on the surface of the submerged pine wood are also clearly visible, like a dream.

Glorfindel finally recovered from the pain brought by Paul the Octopus's ink, but at this time, his hands and feet were all fitted with specially made elven restraints, a kind of shackle made of gray thorns. Sharp thorns pierced into his body, and were sealed by the divine power of Sindorei, so it was difficult for him to escape.

Glorfindel had calmed down at this time. His attitude was still very tough and indifferent, because according to elven custom, it was absolutely forbidden to publicly kill members of the same race, let alone a sacred Dawn Elf.

Escorting him at this time were not elves, but a group of powerful elite dwarven warriors. Beside them, Fang Senyan walked along with his hands behind his back, while Wu Ge was surrounded by several elven elders with the highest reputation and strength in the clan, walking in front. But Wu Ge would turn her head back to look at Fang Senyan from time to time, then smile happily and sweetly.

As Glorfindel was gradually escorted deeper into the Forest City, he immediately felt an indescribable strange power at work. This extremely strange power was extremely vast, occupying at least half of the area of Dawn City!

Glorfindel's vision and knowledge were both worthy of being called heroes of his time, and he quickly saw that at the base of most of the Haisom trees, there was a humanoid oval object. This should be the reason that supported the vigorous development of the entire Dawn City.

Yes, Dawn City and even the entire wetland in this area were full of vitality. Part of the reason was the use of a large number of rare materials plundered from Rivendell, but the main reason was these Haiqimujia eggs spread everywhere, constantly transporting life energy to the creatures!

Obviously, after Paul the Octopus occupied the pitiful Haiqimujia, he definitely wouldn't like those eggs that had no blood relationship with him at all. This was also an animal instinct, just like the African lion king who newly ruled the lion pride would not hesitate to bite to death the cubs that he did not sire.

Fang Senyan naturally made use of waste, applying these Haiqimujia eggs. Initially, this life energy was used to cultivate another kind of aquatic plant. At that time, Dawn City was designed as a delicate and exquisite garden style. Later, after obtaining the wealth of Rivendell, it was changed to Haisom wood to build the magnificent Forest City. Therefore, such a magnificent city could be built in a short period of time.

After walking through the vine paths in Dawn City for nearly half an hour, they began to enter the narrow valley. The narrow valley had naturally become a vast swamp at this time, but walking on it, with vine bridges as a path, still had a unique flavor.

At this time, sweat had begun to drip from Glorfindel's forehead, because the further he went, the more he felt an indescribable sense of unease, a feeling that gave him an indescribable sense of fear. But Glorfindel was unwilling to show weakness and endured it.

Soon, the group began to turn a corner and entered the naturally formed cave. The terrain here was higher, and the water could not spread up. This place originally belonged to the Balrog's activity range, but now the master had become a dwarf - Gimli's tribe had dispatched at least five hundred skilled craftsmen to come here.

These nemesis of rocks quickly carved out a dwarven settlement here. They were also very satisfied with the geothermal heat here, which made it very convenient to forge various tools, and the warm beds would be more comfortable when sleeping at night.

As for the original owner of this place - the Balrog. Black Ash, also appeared in front of Glorfindel.

But in a way that no one could have imagined.

In the mountain belly where the Haiqimujia octopus used to incubate its eggs, a huge magic circle had been built. Glorfindel could see that this magic circle was even composed of seven terrifying magic circles, and each magic circle was clearly a masterpiece made by the dwarves with painstaking effort.

Of course, the materials that constituted this giant magic circle were very precious. Glorfindel seemed to be quite familiar with some of the materials, because he had seen these things in Rivendell's warehouse more than once.

The Balrog was placed above the magic circle at this time. Its entire surface was covered with a black rock shell formed after the lava solidified. There were many cracks on the shell, and a soul-stirring red color could be seen surging from the gaps in the cracks. From a distance, it looked like a giant egg.

A total of seven chains embedded in the rock wall were wrapped around the Balrog's body, hanging it in mid-air. These chains were very strong and thick, and emitted a faint blue light. Each chain link was as big as an adult. Even more strange was that there were dense and strange runes on the chains. From time to time, a red light could be seen flashing from the Balrog's body, and then it would be evenly distributed to each chain and transmitted to the distance.

Glorfindel immediately understood why this place was warm like spring under the snowy peak. It turned out that this group of people had captured this Balrog, and then began to continuously extract the life energy in its body and transport it to the surrounding land! In this way, the water temperature of the swamp was surprisingly warm, and the miraculous rise in the nearby climate was naturally explained.

"That's right!" Glorfindel suddenly thought of something that almost suffocated him:

"Since they can catch the Balrog, and Moria is nearby! The dwarven kingdom moved here because of the rich veins, but the Balrog led to the abandonment of this place. This means that the threat of Moria has been eliminated, so the dwarves can naturally successfully re-enter this ancient place! Doesn't that mean that this damn Dawn City has a foundation for cooperation with the dwarves!?"

Glorfindel guessed right. Fang Senyan's previous layout was always interlocked. He brought in Paul the Octopus, subdued Haiqimujia, and then set up an ambush with lightning speed, letting these two giant octopuses catch the Balrog, and then used the rich mineral resources of Moria to attract Gimli's tribe. Under the common huge interests, the establishment of Dawn City was naturally supported by Gimli's tribe with all their strength. Otherwise, with the few followers that Wu Ge brought out at that time, how could they have done such a large-scale event?

At this time, everyone had entered the cave next to the mountain belly where the Balrog was imprisoned. This place was a cave dug out by the dwarves, and it shone with a deep light. Fang Senyan first looked forward and said softly to Wu Ge:

"I have something to talk to Mr. Glorfindel about. His mouth is too dirty. I need to clean it for him."

Wu Ge very obediently said "Oh", and then went out with the two followers who were with her. After she left, a sneer appeared on the corner of Fang Senyan's mouth. He waved his hand, and the elite dwarven warriors began to search Glorfindel's body in an extremely rude manner. It was a simple and rude act. To put it bluntly, it was stripping Glorfindel until he had no clothes left.

Glorfindel began to roar frantically:

"You idiot, how dare you insult a Dawn Elf like this!"

In his roar, the expressions of the other elven elders were also very ugly, but Fang Senyan sneered and said:

"Is this called insult? Then what do you plan to call hanging me? I'm a very petty person, so I will definitely remember anything that anyone threatens me with and I will definitely find a chance to retaliate!"

Since Glorfindel was prepared to come and cause trouble, he must have had excellent equipment on him. Of course, Fang Senyan had no way to use this equipment, but the other elven elders and dwarves seemed very interested. Fang Senyan's expression was very cold, and then he looked at Anair. Salorn, who had stayed behind, nodded slightly.

Anair. Salorn was Wu Ge's confidant. He looked at the immobile Glorfindel in front of him and smiled coldly, then drew a branch from his hand and began to draw strange magic runes and patterns on Glorfindel's body with his blood. Drawing these patterns was obviously quite exhausting. Elder Anair. Salorn was panting after drawing half of Glorfindel's back.

Fang Senyan looked at the remaining elven elders and sneered:

"What we are going to draw now is the secret text bestowed on Wu Ge. Sun Chaser by the sacred Sindorei, called the Spirit Extraction Array! It will consume a lot of mental power when drawing it. Elder Anair. Salorn cannot complete it independently. Fortunately, he has already outlined the general outline, so your help is needed next."

An elven elder suddenly said angrily:

"I refuse this barbaric behavior. This is a blasphemy and insult to the traditions of the elven race!"
