Chapter 336
The wizard who is witty and righteous and can always lead everyone through difficulties.
Gollum, who lost his human nature due to greed but is not inherently evil.
Gandalf with white hair and beard riding a white horse.
Frodo, who is firm and strong but is tempted by the One Ring at the final moment.
The greatest fantasy novel in over two thousand years is now crashing down!
Under the unanimous anticipation of netizens across the web, Ye Xuan finally uploaded "The Hobbit" to the usual place.
Accompanied by the update notification sound in their ears, countless readers put down what they were doing and rushed to the blog page of "Pig-Raising Big Shot".
As soon as the four big characters "The Hobbit" appeared in the title, big question marks immediately popped up in everyone's minds.
What does this mean?!
With strong curiosity, more and more readers opened the first page of this book.
A leisurely and carefree kingdom, an environment where people live and work in peace and contentment, many readers even showed knowing smiles with this comfortable and relaxed atmosphere.
At this moment, everyone gradually understood the existence of Hobbits.
Hobbits are a rather small race, only half the height of an ordinary person.
And the protagonist of the story is a Hobbit named Bilbo.
Bilbo was originally a person content with the status quo, who always liked a comfortable and easy life, but unexpectedly, his peaceful life suddenly faced a change.
With the sudden visit of his good friend, the Grey Wizard Gandalf, Bilbo joined an expedition team composed of dwarves by mistake.
Following the experience of this expedition team, the vast world in the book slowly unfolded before everyone.
Seeing a series of unprecedented settings such as Hobbits, wizards, trolls, and orcs appear, the readers were truly eye-opening.
"Is this guy trying to push his imagination to the limit?"
"Has this guy seen such a magical world with his own eyes?! How can it look so realistic?"
"He simply created a new world out of thin air!"
"Content that I couldn't even dream of was actually written by him?!"
……
Just as countless readers were immersed in such a magnificent fantasy world and couldn't extricate themselves, a change suddenly occurred.
In the process of fighting against the orcs, Bilbo fell into a tunnel and picked up a cold ring by mistake.
At that time, Bilbo didn't care.
But the readers had already keenly sensed that something was wrong.
This ring clearly hides a big secret!
What is the function of the ring?
Who is the original owner of the ring?
Why did the ring appear here?
A series of questions appeared in the minds of many readers, and everyone wished they could rush into the book and examine the ring with a microscope.
In contrast, the protagonist Bilbo didn't hear the inner voices of countless readers, and his attitude toward the ring was extremely perfunctory.
Just casually throwing it into his pocket, that's all.
It made countless readers feel anxious and curious, but they were helpless.
Just as many readers were holding their breath, Bilbo was suddenly caught by a strange creature called Gollum.
Gollum proposed to play riddles with Bilbo, and if Bilbo couldn't guess, he would face the fate of being eaten.
Seeing Bilbo, whose combat power was only level one, in front of Gollum, whose combat power was off the charts, like a complete weakling, many readers couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten.
And just at the critical moment, Bilbo muttered to himself.
"What's in my pocket?"
Gollum naturally couldn't guess the One Ring in his pocket, and just as Gollum was angry and attacking Bilbo, Bilbo reached into his pocket.
A magical scene happened.
Under the influence of the ring, he became invisible.
Once the invisibility effect appeared, the most direct impact was—
The number of comments on this chapter exceeded all previous chapters.
"Holy crap!"
"If I had such a magic ring, how good would that be?! I could..."
"To the person in front, do you dare to write out all your ellipses!"
"Please pay attention to the scale of your speech to avoid the novel account being banned [Dog head]"
Just as countless readers were talking about the magic ring, the story continued to develop.
Bilbo successfully met up with the other dwarves, and their adventure became more and more twists and turns.
After overcoming a series of harsh environments such as wolf packs and giant spiders, they finally arrived at the final level—the dragon's lair.
Compared to the dragon's explosive combat power, the readers couldn't help but worry.
Can the descendants of the King under the Mountain really return to their hometown under the Lonely Mountain?
Relying only on these dozen or so ragged people, can they really defeat the dragon covered in hard scales and hot flames?
Faced with this contest of disparate combat power, the curiosity of the readers had already been raised to the highest point.
At this moment, the Hobbit's wisdom and courage came in handy again.
Bilbo unlocked the secret of opening the treasure map and discovered the dragon's fatal weakness.
At the critical moment when the dragon went down the mountain to attack humans again, a feather arrow accurately pierced the dragon's unprotected left chest.
Winning against the strong with the weak, they did it!
Countless readers also had their emotions rising and falling with the experience of the expedition team, and now they were feeling the joy of the expedition team together, one by one showing relieved smiles.
But just as they continued to read, the smiles on their faces suddenly froze.
The subsequent situation once again exceeded everyone's imagination.
In front of the huge treasure left by the dragon, everyone was overwhelmed.
The dwarves suddenly became as greedy for treasure as the dragon, openly refusing the demands of humans and elves to return the losses, and closed the door to deny the debt.
Only the Hobbit Bilbo remained clear-headed, but he was powerless to stop the outbreak of the Battle of the Three Armies.
However, things will always encounter worse situations when you think they are at their worst.
The orcs and wild wolf armies who learned the news of the dragon's death also appeared before everyone.
With that, the Battle of the Five Armies was imminent!
The most glorious and magnificent scene of this novel started here!
The vast continent, the desolate and rugged scenery, the intensity of swords drawn...
One blood-pumping scene after another appeared before everyone.
By the time the war ended, everyone remembered Bilbo from the beginning.
It turned out he had been hit by a giant rock early on and lost consciousness, and by the time he woke up, the war had long since ended.
As Bilbo returned to his hometown, countless readers slowly reacted.
Bilbo didn't defeat the dragon with his own hands, and he didn't heroically kill the enemy.
But he did indeed pass through that storm.
Is he still the same him as before?
No, he is no longer his original self.
It's hard to imagine that someone like Bilbo could experience such an adventure and finally retreat unscathed.
His original life was leisurely and carefree, without contention, and as long as he continued to live according to the original track, it would be a life as plain as water.
But it just so happened that he, the cowardly one, picked up weapons and participated in one battle after another.
This is like a diligent and simple farmer who suddenly picks up a spear and starts a life of fighting bravely on the battlefield.
Bilbo's adventure journey is like saying:
Little people can also have legendary lives.
And this point, at this moment, hit everyone's heart hard.
