Chapter 54 Counterattack

Mr. Glorfindel returned much earlier than Fang Senyan and the others had anticipated.

Mr. Gimli had confidently stated that Mr. Glorfindel would trudge through putrescence, desolation, hunger, and cold for ten days. He did not expect that an elf who loved beauty and cleanliness would possibly sleep and rest in such an environment.

So, in fact, Glorfindel braced himself, walked out of the Lake Shalgar area for four consecutive days without sleep, then slept for a day, and then rushed back in much less time than Mr. Gimli had expected.

The reason why Glorfindel was so anxious was not that he foresaw the fate of Rivendell being severely undermined by Misoka, but that he was fundamentally worried that Legolas and Galadriel would take advantage of Elrond's death and the unstable morale to persuade several powerful elven elders in Rivendell to leave.

He knew that Legolas and Galadriel would definitely do this, because if he were in that position, he would do the same. It must be known that the Ring of Air, Vilya, had protected Rivendell for thousands of years. Once the elves learned of Vilya's disappearance, they would naturally feel a strong sense of crisis, which was a great opportunity to poach people.

It was precisely because Mr. Glorfindel was not fully prepared and did not expect that Misoka Daysunner, this Dawn Elf, would suddenly emerge and intervene that he felt such a strong contrast in his heart when he returned to a messy, withered, desolate, and deserted Rivendell.

In fact, Mr. Glorfindel's premonitions have always been very accurate.

Legolas and Galadriel arrived in Rivendell three days after Misoka took her team away.

They were also exhausted and scarred after being chased by several Ringwraiths, so naturally they wanted to return to Rivendell to rest. At the same time, they also planned to release the news of Elrond's death to shock the elves of Rivendell and achieve their ulterior motives of poaching people.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived in Rivendell, they were immediately stunned by the panicked and deserted scene. After some inquiries, they learned that what they wanted to do but had not yet done had been done by the newly promoted Dawn Elf, Misoka, and even more thoroughly than they had done!

Since there was an example in front of them, then there was no doubt that Legolas and Galadriel had to act decisively. As the saying goes, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it. Before, Legolas and Galadriel had always had some concerns. After all, everyone was a prominent figure among the elves. If they poached too harshly, they would not be able to explain it to Glorfindel in the future.

But now it was all right. No matter how excessive they were, Mr. Glorfindel's greatest hatred would inevitably be on Misoka, who had first poached people and then ransacked their homes. Since the only concern had been lost, Legolas and Galadriel naturally let go and showed their grand plans!

Therefore, one can imagine what kind of mess Mr. Glorfindel had to face at this time. The people of Rivendell were first taken away by Misoka, fully half of them, and then she skillfully moved away a large amount of Rivendell's accumulation, materials, and wealth, leaving at most only one-fifth.

Then, although Galadriel and Legolas did not plunder wealth, they persuaded and poached a considerable number of elves. More importantly, these one-quarter of the elves were all outstanding figures who had made achievements in various fields!

To put it simply, the Rivendell that Glorfindel took over at this time had a population of only one-third of its heyday, wealth of only one-fifth of its heyday, and had lost 70% of its high-level combat power.

Faced with such a tragic situation, Mr. Glorfindel, who was already tired and hungry, suddenly felt a darkness in front of him and almost couldn't catch his breath. He sat under a tree next to him for a long time before he recovered, and pointed his trembling finger at his confidant and said:

"You, you just let that damned Sindarin follower incite people's hearts? Plunder property in sacred Rivendell?"

The elven elder said aggrievedly:

"But, but the ring she was wearing was Vilya! We simply had no way to argue with her in front of Vilya, let alone take action!"

Glorfindel took a deep breath and closed his eyes. At this time, he also knew that these elves of Rivendell had been sheltered by the Ring of Air, Vilya, for thousands of years. Under its accumulated power, it was indeed difficult to resist, not to mention that the sacred War Tree, Sindaro, was Misoka's mount?

After thinking for a night, a ruthless look appeared on Glorfindel's face. At this time, he had already learned the location of Misoka's new city, which was near the former orc city. Glorfindel had decided to visit and ask for an explanation.

Yes, he really did not dare to kill people publicly. This would only completely push those tribesmen who had already changed their minds to the opposite side, but! Glorfindel was extremely confident in his personal strength and could overwhelm Misoka, this newly promoted Dawn Elf. He also knew very well that no matter who got the Ring of Air, Vilya, it was absolutely impossible to use it so quickly.

Therefore, what Glorfindel did for himself was to focus on destruction! Destroy as many buildings as possible in that new city, create widespread panic as much as possible, and make people's hearts unstable. Then, if he reappeared and called for action, he could naturally succeed in turning the tables.

With this thought in mind, Glorfindel had already made a complete plan in his mind. Now, the main focus was on harassment and panic. At the same time, he would let his men go to appease and comfort the tribesmen, and regain their favor. On this basis, he would slowly plan a plan for the tribesmen to return.

As for Misoka, although her previous actions surprised Glorfindel, he still did not take this newly promoted Dawn Elf seriously! In Glorfindel's plan, there was no doubt that Misoka had to die. If she did not die, then the soul imprint on the Ring of Air, Vilya, would not be erased, and of course, Glorfindel could not use it.

As for how to die, Glorfindel had a hundred ways to make her die without knowing why, gloriously, unswervingly, and even at her funeral, Glorfindel was sure that he would shed tears and mourn heavily for this great Dawn Elf who had made a great contribution to the prosperity of Rivendell.

With this thought in mind, Glorfindel vaguely felt that things were not as bad as he thought, because at least if the Ring of Air, Vilya, fell into the hands of Galadriel or Legolas, he would have to say goodbye to it forever.

On the contrary, if it was in Misoka's hands... Glorfindel's face showed a smile that was even a bit ferocious, but he had at least a 70% certainty of getting it!

Then, the tribesmen and wealth that Misoka took away would eventually return to his hands. Although the people that Galadriel and Legolas took away were important, they were definitely not as important as the Ring of Air, Vilya...

With this thought in mind, Glorfindel suddenly felt that things were not as bad as he had imagined. It could be said that the God of Destiny was just playing a not-so-big joke with him, and ultimately favored him.

He then called his tribesmen and had them bring him a rich meal of fruits. After eating his fill, he began to rest, because what Glorfindel was going to do next required him to have enough energy.

A dark shadow shuttled through the dense forest. Looking at the speed of the shadow, it was simply unbelievable like a ghost. What was even more terrifying was that although the ground was covered with fallen leaves and the forest was full of dead branches, the shadow did not make any sound when walking through it, just like a fish swimming in the water.

The shadow suddenly stopped. It could be seen that there was a layer of strange black mist on the surface of his body, and his body and appearance could not be distinguished at all. Only a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle could not be forgotten.

This was already the outer area of the former orc city. The snow-covered forest seemed to have no vitality at all. The shadow suddenly stopped and opened his mouth to the sky. It could be seen that there seemed to be layers of invisible sound waves emitting from his mouth.

Before long, a fierce giant eagle soared from the sky and stopped in front of the shadow. Looking at the appearance of the giant eagle, it should be of the same race as the one Fang Senyan encountered the last time he entered.

Soon, the person and the beast began to communicate. After a while, the shadow frowned and said:

"You don't know the situation there? You feel there is great danger there?"

Listening to the voice of the shadow, it was Glorfindel. The giant eagle cooed twice, looking very aggrieved. Glorfindel said hatefully:

"That's just an old tree demon! The sacred oak Sindaro has received your tribesmen, so it can simulate an aura of fear for you. That woman can't possibly master the power of Vilya so quickly. Go and scout it for me once."

But the giant eagle's answer was to keep shaking its head. It seemed that if Glorfindel forced it again, it would directly flap its wings and fly away.

Glorfindel took a deep breath and said angrily:

"Then okay, you can always tell me where that new city is?"

The giant eagle nodded, flapped its wings and led the way, and soon brought Glorfindel to the pine forest where terrifying poisonous gas could once evaporate during the day.

However, what appeared in front of Glorfindel at this time was actually a vast ocean! A huge swamp full of giant reeds, thatch, and algae!
