Chapter 44 The Fall of Saruman
Chapter 44 The Fall of Saruman
Elrond had already arrived at the battlefield as the holder of the Ring of Wind.
The most powerful of the three rings!
With a wave of his hand, Gandalf and Ironhide's exhausted strength and minor injuries were instantly restored.
At the same time, the domain expanded around him, instantly suppressing the darkness on Saruman's body.
Immediately afterwards, countless small tornadoes began to move at high speed within the area, engulfing the orcs and turning them into dust.
The blood in the orcs' bodies was instantly separated into countless droplets by the high-speed wind, which flew in all directions like bullets fired at high speed.
Ironhide and Gandalf exchanged a glance, their faces beaming with joy.
With King Elrond's blessing, if they still can't defeat Saruman,
They could just smash their heads against a block of tofu and die!
Gandalf charged forward, his longsword wreathed in flames as he slashed down.
As a Maya, his strength is comparable to that of Sauron.
However, because most of its power has been sealed, it is more suited to melee mage.
Tie Hui suddenly raised his heavy sword and slammed it into the ground.
In an instant, spikes shot into the sky, rushing towards Saruman like growing trees.
Saruman lashed out with his whip, shattering it into pieces.
He then continued to deal with Gandalf's attacks with ease, but Elrond even joined the battle, instantly increasing the pressure on him.
As Elrond approached, the Ring of Wind's inherent domain greatly suppressed his power.
Moreover, the crystal ball surrounding it seemed to have lost its luster and fallen into the mud.
The moment its expanded domain encompassed Sauron, it severed Sauron's control over the crystal ball.
This greatly reduced Saruman's fighting strength!
Tie Hui also took the opportunity to join the attack, and the golden flames emanating from his heavy sword caused particularly noticeable damage to him.
This caused Saruman to instinctively dodge to the side whenever he saw Saruman attacking.
Gandalf and Elrond also noticed something amiss.
The two began to work together to block Saruman's escape and hiding routes, with Elrond even expending his power to use the Ring of Wind.
When the area was opened to its maximum, the surrounding tornadoes also became taller and thicker.
At the same time, it nearly drained all the surrounding water elements, condensing them into a water sword that shot towards Saruman.
Gandalf leaped up, and the faint light on his staff instantly shone brightly, illuminating the area as if it were daytime.
At the same time, the beam of light was also aimed very specifically at Saruman's flaming eyes.
This caused Saruman immense pain, and the black aura around his body gradually dissipated.
Seeing this, King Elrond instantly increased his control over his domain, while shouting to Tie Hui, "Quick!"
Tie Hui couldn't suppress the smile on his face, and inwardly he cried out, "Emperor!"
"They're here!"
The next second, the golden flames on the heavy sword in his hand suddenly rose several feet high!
Tie Hui raised his heavy sword and hurled it fiercely towards Saruman!
Golden flames streaked through the air like a shooting star, piercing Saruman's chest with pinpoint accuracy.
Golden flames clung to him, turning him into a human torch.
"ah--"
A heart-wrenching scream echoed across the sky; Saruman could never have imagined that his end would be so hasty and tragic.
As the screams continued, the flames grew ever brighter.
A few seconds later, the entire fireman collapsed to the ground and remained motionless.
At the same time, the system's voice also echoed in Tie Hui's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for slaying the white-robed wizard Saruman. You have gained 10000 energy points.]
Upon hearing the system notification, Tie Hui was instantly astonished, having gained 1 points in one go.
Adding the energy points I had accumulated before, the total came to nearly 2.
After this trip back, I'm afraid I'll be able to accumulate 3 energy points.
At the same time, he also felt doubtful and fearful.
Because we don't know Ilúvatar's attitude towards this matter!
"Don't be afraid, kid, I've got you covered!" The Emperor's voice echoed in his mind!
Tie Hui scoffed disdainfully, glancing at the group of panicked orcs around him.
These are all energy points!
……
The Battle of Helm's Deep completely crushed the dark forces from the West.
Although the Rohanid Empire suffered significant losses in this battle, its rear was no longer threatened.
After the war ended, Théoden immediately began to reorganize his troops.
As soon as his troops were ready, he set off to support Gondor.
He doesn't care about any war or conflict!
The multi-ethnic coalition has now assembled here.
If we continue with the old procedures, it would be really uncomfortable!
Elrond sat in a corner, watching Iowa, who was standing in another corner, organizing her equipment.
Tie Hui sat down next to him, smiling, and said, "How about it? I told you so, didn't I?"
Then, glancing at Iowa, he seemed to be talking to himself: "Tsk tsk tsk! Truly a stunningly beautiful and dashing woman, what man wouldn't be captivated by her?"
King Elrond rose and left the hall with a dark expression!
This action left everyone present puzzled. Only Tie Hui remained seated, a smirk on his face.
Two days later!
Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli also returned here with the gathered Knights of Rohan.
For a moment, everyone was overjoyed to see each other again.
After everyone had arrived, Théoton held a special meeting.
The three men, Aragon and his companions, had gathered nearly 2 soldiers throughout Rohan in recent days.
With the addition of the allied forces of the three races, the total strength reached 12.
Gandalf looked at the compiled troop numbers, his brow still furrowed.
Sauron amassed a million-strong army, though the majority of them were orcs.
But those were well-equipped orcs, capable of wielding weapons, slashing, running, and jumping.
Not to mention he also rallied other forces to fight for him!
"Now we can only wait for Frodo and the others!" Gandalf muttered to himself as he watched the group discussing their route of attack.
After final discussions, the meeting point was still set up in the Black Barbarian Land.
However, this time the number of people gathered is much larger.
Elrond, carrying the sword case, personally entered the tent and found Aragorn.
"I have something to ask you!" Elrond asked with a smile, holding the sword case but not immediately handing it to Aragorn.
Aragorn was somewhat puzzled, but still answered respectfully, "What is it?"
"What do you think of Princess Éowyn?"
Upon hearing this, alarm bells rang instantly in Aragorn's mind.
Being clever, he immediately realized what was going on!
Tulag was definitely involved in something, and his face immediately darkened.
I've decided that I must find a chance to have a serious talk with him.
"Have you heard something you shouldn't have heard about again?" Aragorn was exhausted and couldn't handle the situation.
