A Song of Ice and Fire: The Magic Empire of the Plane Where the Song Begins

Archie's soft words echoed like thunder in Thorin's ears.

The word "Lonely Mountain" lingered in Thorin's mind like a devil's whisper.

For decades, the Lonely Mountain has been an unspeakable pain in the hearts of the dwarves, let alone Thorin, the orthodox heir to the dwarf throne.

One must know that Sorin's lineage is a self-proclaimed "king under the mountain".

But without the lonely mountain, who is the king under the mountain?

Thorin stood up excitedly (because he is a dwarf, he is not very tall), and said in a trembling voice:

"What do you mean?"

Archie smiled:

"Don't you understand me well?

The lifespan of a dragon is very long.

Even if he hadn't been seen for decades, Smaug was sure to be alive and well.

Are you sure you won't wake Smaug when you go to steal the Heart of the Mountain?

If Smaug acts, are you sure you can withstand Smaug's revenge?

And after that?

As long as Smaug is alive, the Lonely Mountain will not return to the dwarves.

After you get the Heart of the Mountains, where are you going to become king? "

All the inquiries hit Sorin's heart, and Sorin didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, Gandalf saw the opportunity and interjected:

"Your Majesty, are you going to help Sorin regain control of the Lonely Mountain?"

Ai Qi smiled without saying a word, and continued to look at the two of them.

Gandalf quickly reacted and continued:

"What do we need to pay to get your help."

Ai Qi likes to chat with such smart people:

"Very well, magicians pay attention to equal exchange.

Since you want to get my help, you must be prepared to pay the corresponding price.

Just now I saw Baggins' contract, you hired Baggins as a thief in the team, so what are you going to pay to get me to take it? "

Thorin felt that another person was going to share his gold coins, and he was very unhappy, but he had no choice but to ask angrily:

"So how far can you do it? How can you help me?"

Ai Qi patiently explained:

"To put it bluntly, I know dragons better than any of you.

You can't do without my help if you're dealing with a dragon.

In fact, it wasn't too difficult for me to get rid of Smaug.

It depends on whether you can pay the corresponding price. "

Thorin thought hard.

Thorin was still able to maintain a certain amount of restraint until he actually saw the gold of the Lonely Mountain again.

That's why he was able to easily sign a contract with Bilbo to give one-fourteenth, and agreed to share the gold with the residents of River Valley Town.

Now Sorin can still think hard about the pros and cons, and said with difficulty:

"If you can destroy Smaug and help me regain the Lonely Mountain, I will give you half of the Lonely Mountain's gold."

Ai Qi looked at Thorin's gritted teeth, and laughed for a while:

"Since I have the ability to destroy Smaug, I can surely occupy the Lonely Mountain.

All the wealth of Lonely Mountain can be obtained if I want to.

Why do all the work and only take half the gold? "

Thorin and Gandalf were silent, feeling that what they said made sense, and they didn't know how to answer.

Ai Qi watched the two of them stop talking, smiled lightly, and continued:

"Not to mention half of the gold, the property I own is more than a hundred times more than that of Gushan.

The gold is not enough for me to sell.

But in fact, there is still something in Gushan that can attract my attention. "

Thorin and Gandalf suddenly found hope again, and asked immediately.

Archie didn't whet their appetite either, explaining:

"That's Mithril.

As a mage, except for a few spells of the Egyptian genre, basically he would not use gold directly.

On the contrary, Mithril is very active in magic.

Therefore, if you can give me the Mithril in the treasure of the Lonely Mountain, I can help you. "

Thorin and Gandalf secretly calculated in their hearts.

Although Mithril is precious, the total amount is relatively small, and the combined value is really not as much as half of gold.

The two made eye contact, and Thorin stepped forward to agree.

Archie continued:

"I'm not doing a one-off sale this time.

In the future, we will also establish a good trading system with the dwarves.

Hope to be able to continuously obtain Mithril through transactions.

Of course, I will pay the corresponding price here.

Equivalent exchange, I will not break the rules. "

Gandalf agreed with this point, and Thorin reluctantly believed it.

Archie said to Gandalf again:

"I came here this time not just to establish a connection with the dwarves.

Trade relations should also be established with elves.

I'm going to visit Lord Elrond next, and I hope that His Excellency the Gray Robe Wizard can help me make a connection. "

Ai Qi didn't want to fight even the elves, so it's better to let Gandalf come forward as a matchmaker.

Gandalf readily agreed, and Thorin was very unhappy, because he was very indignant at the elves' resignation and expressed distrust of the elves (what does it have to do with Elrond, it's Thranduil's fault) .

Gandalf felt a headache for the stubbornness of the dwarves. He looked at Aiqi and wanted Aiqi to help him speak.

Ai Qi looked indifferent:

"Since the dwarves don't have a sense of trust in the elves, we can temporarily separate halfway.

I will visit the elves first, and then I will go to you.

I who master space magic can quickly keep up. "

Edge then pointed to Harry and Hermione and said:

"When we parted, you took my two apprentices with you.

They have also studied here for several months, and it is good to go out for an 'internship' appropriately.

And although they are still young, they all have geniuses in some aspects.

There will also be some help for you on the way. "

Thorin and Gandalf looked at each other again, feeling feasible.

Ai Qi sent apprentices to go with them, indicating that he was very optimistic about them, so Ai Qi had a higher probability of keeping his promise.

Harry and Hermione were both at the age of children, so they were overjoyed to hear that there was an adventure.

Archie said:

"Don't be too happy, you are not strong enough, I will not be separated from you for too long.

And before we separate, we need to conduct special training in the past few days, so don't lose your life halfway.

The two of you should take your broomsticks with you (now the two of them don't have enough magic power to use space magic), if you encounter danger, fly away quickly, don't hesitate, leave the dwarves to die, your own safety is the first ! "

The two brats nodded emphatically to express their understanding, and then continued to be excited about the adventure.
