Sheyan shook his head slightly in response to Reef's question.
"As the saying goes, nothing ventured, nothing gained. I've come up with many plans for this matter, but how could it be so easy to accomplish something that even a guy like Saruman would have a headache over? After thinking about it, the chances of success for all the plans I've devised are very low. Even if we're lucky enough to succeed, I'm afraid that at least half of us here will die! That's definitely not the result I want. "
"It seems like this plan is the only reliable one. If I don't take this risk, I might not even be able to meet Treebeard. If I follow my current plan, even if I can't get the Golden Fruit, I can at least find out where it is!" Sheyan thought to himself.
"More importantly, if we follow my plan, I'll just have to make a sacrifice and use the Unmodified Amnio-tank to weaken our strength. Most of the party's strength can still be preserved. After inviting Zi to join us, we can still survive in the Realm. It won't be like the previous Illume-union. "
Reef anxiously said.
"But, Boss, you …"
Sheyan smiled and said.
"You have to have confidence in me. Let Melody come over."
At this moment, Melody also came over and silently blessed Sheyan with various divine arts. Sheyan's whole body was filled with the aura of nature. His temperament was as pure as it could be, and his vitality was as abundant as it could be.
All of a sudden, Melody hugged Sheyan from behind. She hugged him so tightly that Sheyan could feel the two lumps of her bosom throbbing. Melody sobbed as she said, "Don't worry, Sheyan, don't worry.
"I don't want you to go. It's too dangerous!"
Sheyan let her hug him and said with a smile.
"You little fool. For a man, there are some things that have to be done no matter how dangerous it is.... Because, the Supreme God is really a very harsh bastard."
Melody circled in front of Sheyan and looked at him with tears in her eyes. Her expression would break any man's heart.
"If something happens to you, then.... what should I do?"
Sheyan smiled.
"What can happen to me? But after coming to Fangorn Forest this time, I can see that you're not happy. You've done a lot of things against your will. I've made things difficult for you."
Melody sobbed as she said,
"Don't say that. As long as you're happy, I'm happy. That year when I was a nobody, you saved me from the evil clutches of the Uruk-hais. What do you want from me? Now, I'm not looking forward to being the Queen of the City of Dawn. I want to go to your world and live with you. "
The two hugged each other for a while, their silhouettes silhouetted by the rising sun.... After a long time, Sheyan turned his head to look at the large pile of kerosene in the distance. This was what Reef and Franklin had brought back to Isengard overnight. He put his arm around Melody's slender waist and kissed her deeply.
"I have to go. There are still many loopholes in my plan that haven't been perfected yet. I still have to do a lot of things to reduce the risks of the plan as much as possible. Wish me luck."

The chaos in Fangorn Forest continued. As the number of casualties increased, the hatred shrouded the area even more fiercely, and it seemed to be getting more and more intense.
More importantly, Saruman had once again increased the purchase price of wood. This good news undoubtedly made the adventurers even crazier. In addition, the chaotic conflict between the wild Ents and the Ents of the Treebeard tribe was also spreading fiercely. The number of people who successfully cut down qualified wood in Fangorn Forest and got lucky and made a fortune were increasing.
This series of news spread like a plague. As the saying goes, men die in pursuit of wealth and birds die in pursuit of food. As a result, there was an endless stream of adventurers who spent a lot of money to teleport to Isengard. The businesses in Isengard were also stimulated and abnormally prosperous.
On the sixth day, the arrangements that Sheyan had set up in advance were all in place. He had also adjusted himself to a relaxed state. Therefore, at noon, a total of eleven fires appeared in the entire Fangorn Forest one after another!!
The places where the fires started were all pre-buried with kerosene. Once the fire started, it could be said that whatever it touched would burn, making it extremely difficult to extinguish. Eleven spots of fire instantly surged and spread out violently. Eleven plumes of smoke were like eleven enormous exclamation marks that stretched across the dark blue sky!
There was no doubt that the forest was most afraid of fire. It was reasonable to say that the Treebeard tribe, who had witnessed all this, should immediately rush to put out the fire. They must nip the hidden danger in the bud before the fire started.
However, the dispute between the Treebeard tribe and the wild Ents had left them short of manpower. At the same time, the sudden influx of adventurers also put them in a terrible situation. Most of the Ents ignored the threat and continued to fight for the sake of hatred. Only Grubb, as the grandson of Treebeard, had a relatively long-term vision. He anxiously roared at his people who were immersed in the flames of revenge.
"The score with the wild Ents can be settled at any time, but the consequences of the fire spreading may cause the entire Fangorn Forest to fall into a disaster! What the hell are you thinking? "
Grubb's roar finally awakened some of his clansmen, but this was all Grubb could do. His control over the radical clansmen had declined greatly these days, and the clansmen he could mobilize were less than a third of his usual strength.
"Everything will be fine after Lord Treebeard comes out of seclusion."
This was the only thought that kept Grubb going.
After all, the Golden Fruit would be fully ripe in another twenty hours. After being purified by the power of heaven and earth, Treebeard would be able to reabsorb the powerful and pure energy and break through to become a powerful existence on the same level as the World Tree Teldrassil.
With this thought in mind, Grubb tried his best to run to the nearest fire, but when he arrived at the fire, he was surprised to find that the fire was already under control. When Grubb got closer, he was even more surprised to find that the fire was already under control.
The one who was saving these Ents, who were like family to him, from the fire was a human!
*****
Sheyan sensed the arrival of an Ent from the slight tremors on the ground.
But he did not expect the Ent to be Grubb! As one of the leaders of the Ents in Fangorn Forest, this guy was a rare Ent with a brain. However, he also had the identity of Treebeard's direct bloodline.
When the two were connected, it could be said that there were advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage was that it would be much more difficult to fool Grubb. But as long as he succeeded in dealing with this guy, his bloodline would be more helpful to Sheyan's next move.
Gazing at the tall, sturdy and ferocious Ent Glubb walking out from the dense forest, Sheyan turned his head and immediately cried out in pleasant surprise, "Hey!
"Hey, big guy, if you don't want this forest to become a furnace, then come and help!"
As he spoke, he secretly activated a temporary spell. With a wave of his sleeve, a light green drizzle of light sprinkled onto the raging flames ahead, instantly suppressing the fire. Grubb uprooted a big tree and slapped it hard against the flames, but he kept a sufficient distance from Sheyan and asked vigilantly.
"Who are you? Why, are, human, here? "
Sheyan answered naturally.
"I'm the King of Rivendell, the holder of the Ring of Air, Vilya, the messenger of the Twilight Elf Elrond. I've come to Fangorn Forest to ask for Lord Treebeard's help!"
Grubb stared at Sheyan, but Sheyan's whole body was filled with the aura of nature. This was a disguise carefully created by Melody and the Ring of Air, Vilya. It could be said that they worked together. Grubb obviously did not have such a keen eye and could not see any flaws.
More importantly, only a few people knew about Elrond's life and death. There were no mobile phones, internet or other means of communication, so Sheyan could naturally use his name to fool Grubb.
"Human, I, can't trust, your, words." Grubb began to lower some of his guard and moved closer to Sheyan, but he still showed a strong sense of doubt.
Sheyan smiled and took out the item that originally belonged to Elrond: the evergreen leaf of the sacred oak. This thing was plucked from Teldrassil and was left behind by Elrond's mother. It was the best keepsake.
More importantly, Teldrassil was a totem, an idol, and an existence revered by all Ents. Even though the Treebeard tribe walked a different path from Teldrassil, they were still filled with awe and respect for Teldrassil.
This statement sounded difficult to understand and seemed a bit outrageous, but it was easy to understand with a very simple example. The ancient Confucian scholars in China studied the Four Books and Five Classics, but that did not stop them from reading Tao Te Ching and worshipping Lao Dan.
The Ents were extremely sensitive to the leaf of the world tree. It was a kind of admiration and desire from the soul!
Grubb knew at a glance that the leaf Sheyan took out was definitely not a fake. More importantly, after he felt the aura of the leaf, he had a lot of insights. It was as if he was moving forward, but found that the road ahead was getting narrower and narrower. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com.
