The crater was closed by cooled lava, and no more smoke came out. This farce, which I don’t know how to describe, came to an end.

Ronin and Gandalf walked side by side and returned to the Fortress of Mordor. They were full of soldiers of the three clans.

The arrow that shattered Sauron's body just now drew a large amount of vitality from everyone, causing their vitality to be severely damaged and weak. If they cannot be replenished in time, their strength may be reduced.

This was an extremely heavy blow to the Middle Land remnants, who had a poor family background.

Of course, compared to the loss of strength, the collapse of faith is even more serious.

Although everyone knows what identities are between God and man, it is still unacceptable to expose this relationship and put it naked on the table.

As long as you have a little independent consciousness and self-thinking, who would be willing to become someone else's tool, become someone else's shepherd, let it be fiddled with, and let it be slaughtered?

This time, the actions of the gods of Vera directly made the Middle Land remnants who believed in them feel disheartened and a crisis of faith has occurred.

But this is the matter of the gods of Vera and has nothing to do with Ronin.

The two passed the exhausted soldiers and came to the temporary command post in the center of the fortress.

"Roning!"

Before the two people who came to the command post could speak, they saw a figure running out of it and pounced directly into Luo Ning's arms.

Luo Ning stopped, looked at Ino, who buried his head in his arms, and chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"

As he said that, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder, comforting her and letting her go. Whether to see Heatherina later, the scene was a little awkward.

Ino also reacted, left Ronin's arms, adjusted his emotions and stood aside.

However, Heatherina has arrived and has seen all this.

But she said nothing, and came straight to Ronin and Gandalf and asked, "Is the matter solved?"

"Um."

Luo Ning nodded and said, "It's solved!"

"That's good."

Hearing this, Heatherina really relaxed, and a soft smile appeared on her slightly pale face: "Thank you this time!"

"Need not."

Luo Ning shook her head, chuckled and said, "I am just a entrusted person."

After saying that, he turned his eyes to Gandalf on the side.

"Gandalff..."

Looking at the legendary Maiya, Heatherina's expression was a little complicated. After a long time, she said, "I really can't accept Vera's approach this time."

"I see."

Gandalf nodded and said, "But this is also a helpless choice. The Battle of the Gods is about to restart. If Vera does not take any action, the fate of the Alda remains will be even more tragic in the future."

His words were calm, without a trace of turmoil, because this was the fact, and he was just repeating it.

Heatherina's expression remained unchanged and she said coldly: "Then have they figured out how to finish it?"

"I don't know this."

Gandalf smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "I am not within the scope of this plan."

“…”

Heatherina was silent for a while, then stopped talking and turned to the guards beside her: "Rebuild the teleportation array and we will leave here as soon as possible."

After saying that, he turned his eyes back to Gandalf: "I would like to go back and tell Vera that the elves are their believers, not their playthings. If they are gods and cannot bear the corresponding responsibilities, then don't blame the believers for giving up their faith in them!"

This speech was amazing and extremely powerful.

Gandalf was not surprised by this.

Elf, or some elves, have such personality.

They are lively and free, and can even resist the will of the gods of Vera for their own ideas.

For example, the elf prince Fei'ano once refused to hand over the elf diamond to Vera and revived the dead Double Holy Tree.

There is also the elf queen, Kelantriel, who had resisted Vila, who was the main god, and left Amen with a group of Nodo elves.

So, it is not strange that Heatherina says this now.

Even if she led the elves of Degonbel to rebel and completely break with the gods of Vera, Gandalf would not be surprised.

"I will tell you."

Gandalf looked calm and did not get angry because of Galandrier's attitude. He said comfortably: "After this incident, Vera and others think they will change their attitudes and practices."

"Hope!"

Heatherina shook her head, obviously not convinced what he said.

Gandalf didn't care about this either.

As a Maiya, although he was a vassal of Vera, he was not foolishly loyal to Vera.

Otherwise, this time he would not have secretly sent his incarnation to the human world without Vera's permission.

His true loyalty goal is the Arda God system. For the overall safety and rights of the Arda God system, he can even disobey Vira, who is the Lord God.

By the same token, he did not mind obeying Vera's orders while ensuring the overall rights and interests of the Arda God system.

It seems that this time, although he did not agree with Vera's actions, he would not deliberately destroy Vera's plan, because this would not benefit the overall rights and interests of the Alda God system.

Heatherina and the elves on earth are also part of the Alda divine system. Even if they resist Vera, Gandalf will not treat them as enemies, but will only mediate as much as possible.

In a sense, this is a good old man.

Heatherina knew this, so she did not make things difficult for Gandalf and said directly: "Thank you for your help this time, we are leaving."

"Um!"

Gandalf nodded and said, "Next, I will stay here all the time. If you have any questions, you can come and find me."

"Station here?"

Heatherina frowned, looked at Gandalf with confusion, and asked, "Is there any hidden danger?"

"Not a hidden danger."

Gandalf shook his head, turned to Luo Ning on the side, and said helplessly: "This is our previous agreement."

Gandalf found Ronin and bought him an insurance as his last trump card against Sauron.

With Luo Ning's current net worth, this insurance is not cheap.

But this time Gandalf violated the rules and lowered the world, and did not receive permission and support from the gods of Vila, so he really couldn't come up with anything valuable as a commission.

In desperation, he had to sell himself to Luo Ning.

A god incarnation with a legend with a combat power of nearly a high level.

Still very valuable.

Luo Ning originally planned to bring him into the firm as his third assistant to improve the firm's work efficiency and experience.

But now because of the recast of the Holy Prison, he had to change his plan and let Gandalf stay here to protect the sword embryos in the Doomsday Volcano.

Needless to say, the importance of the Holy Prison is very likely to be promoted to a magic weapon after the recast is completed. If there is no sufficient power to protect it, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will covet it and take action to snatch it.

But Luo Ning himself cannot stay here forever. The importance of gaining experience and enhancing his strength is no less than that of the magical artifact of the Holy Prison.

Therefore, Luo Ning could only let Gandalf stay. His strength was not bad, and he was behind the scenes of the Alda divine system. With him here to take care of him, he should be able to intimidate the little girl and ensure that the Holy Prison was born safely.

"This...well!"

Heatherina also understood and stopped talking and left.

...

The Elf Forest, Degonberry, everyone returned victoriously, but their emotions were extremely depressed.

The crisis of faith is fundamentally shaken.

The internal contradictions and hidden dangers buried before are gradually erupting.

An undercurrent surged for a moment.

But this Ronin doesn't matter much.

On the trail in the forest, a group of three people walked slowly towards reality outside this fantasy world.

Christine looked back at Degonberry behind her, then turned her eyes forward, and said to Ronin's back, "Just leave like that?"

"What about that?"

Luo Ning didn't look back and said indifferently: "The office has been closed for almost half a month. If you don't go back to work, do you plan to drink the northwest wind?"

Christine was helpless and could only say clearly: "Don't you say goodbye to them?"

“It’s too troublesome, no need.”

"All right."
