The five Ringwraith knights, whose faces could not be seen clearly with black cloaks and robes on their heads, reined in their horses and stopped by the river, which was only more than ten meters wide. They turned around with the female elf who had already run to the other side of the river and turned around. Confronted.
Actually, the water in this small river doesn't look very deep, let alone very fast. If an adult were to walk down it, it would probably only reach to the knees at most?
However, judging from the spontaneous stop of these black horse mounts on the river bank, coupled with their restless mood, it is not difficult to judge that the evil horses under the crotches of these Nazgul Black Knights do not seem to like them a bit. water?
So, naturally, a strange situation formed: the first person to run across the river was the female elf Arwen who was holding the half-dead Hobbit Frodo; and on the other side of the river, she was on the shore. The ones who stopped to move forward were the five black knights of the Nazgul in black robes; finally, the one caught between the two sides was the fool who was pulling the carriage and kept turning his head back and forth to look at both sides. Troll.
Just now, this troll was planning to pull its slave owner's carriage across this small river, but it never expected that just a few steps into the river, two groups of people riding on horseback suddenly appeared. Guys who are ready to fight?
The pointed-eared elf that just rushed past it at high speed really scared it! Fortunately, his hands didn't shake at the critical moment, and he didn't accidentally overturn the carriage behind him. Otherwise, the other side of the carriage would definitely not have been saved before it turned red.
It is a troll with pursuits and ideals, and it does not want to imitate those red-butt monkeys who always like to pick fruits from trees and hit themselves!
"Ouch..."
Turning its head and looking at both sides for a while, it felt that neither side seemed to want to cause trouble for itself, so it could only whimper in a low voice and planned to continue on its way. At least, first pull its owner to the other side of the river?
Therefore, it didn't understand what these cavalry wanted to do. After thinking about it with its incompetent brain and small brain capacity and memory, it began to immerse itself in pulling the people behind it who were already trapped in the river again. The stone stuck the wheels of the pony carriage.
If it were normal, if a human or elf dared to get so close to it, no matter whether it could beat it or not, it would definitely have raised its big wooden club and rushed forward to start a fight!
It's a pity that now it is a troll groom with no freedom and no dignity. It is afraid of being beaten by the magic whip and does not dare to do whatever it wants.
"Give that halfling to me immediately, female elf!"
Among the five Ringwraiths, the one leading the horse took two steps forward, and the Black Knight of the Ringwraith, who was vaguely planning to step into the river, threatened with his hoarse and sharp low tone.
In fact, he also saw the troll standing in front of them, who was about to pull the carriage across the river. However, he didn't care about this stupid and low-level creature, let alone take him seriously.
"If you want it, come and grab it!"
Pulling out the elf sword from his waist, Yawen felt a little panicked as he looked at the five Nazgul chasing him.
Because, she actually knew that with her own meager strength, if she really wanted to go head-to-head, she would never be able to defeat any of the Ring Spirits! What's more, there are now five of them!
choke! ! !
After hearing the other party's rejection, the five Nazguls tacitly drew out the knight's swords from their waists, began to clamp the horse's belly, and forcefully drove the horse under their crotch, preparing to wade in and forcibly snatch what they needed. The halfling took the Supreme Lord of the Rings in his hand, and then chopped down the unscrupulous female elf.
"..."
Seeing the five Nazgul riding forward, Yawen breathed out heavily. At this time, the aura of the other party brought too much psychological pressure to him.
Fortunately, there were only five of them. Otherwise, if there were a few more, she might have been blocked in the woods by the other party earlier?
And if she remembered correctly, last night, when she found Aragorn and the others in the woods, it seemed that the other party had told her that there were four other Ringwraiths who were killed by a powerful witch. In Bray Town?
This matter made Yawen very curious. She didn't understand what kind of existence could kill four Nazgul easily? However, because the situation last night was very urgent, she needed to rush back to Rivendell for treatment with Frodo, who was seriously injured and dying. Therefore, she did not have time to ask in detail at that time.
"Come on now, you monsters of Sauron!"
If it were on flat ground, or in the woods, she, Yawen, would definitely not dare to challenge five powerful ring spirits face to face like this. If it had been anywhere else, she would have turned around and fled for her life!
But, it’s different here now!
This is the River of Spirits, and it is already the territory of their Noldor high elves! Here, she has access to some special natural powers! Therefore, when she saw the Ringwraiths on the other side pulling out their swords and starting to wade into the water, she was actually not as scared as before. She had a way to deal with them!
"Roar!!"
The ogre, which was pulling the cart and wading across the river with difficulty step by step, saw the group of black knights behind it walking towards him with swords raised. It felt offended and became angry. It just opened its mouth and roared loudly at the black knight closest to it.
Two days ago, when it went out to look for food alone, it was lucky enough to see a lone human carriage and a small human. At that time, it thought that it could have a delicious meal by itself. Horsemeat and tender, delicious little human girls?
But how could it have imagined that not only did it not succeed in the end, but it was also raped by the other party and used as a 'horse' to pull the cart?
So, now it is burning with fire and nowhere to vent it!
Although under the pressure of the terrifying little witch behind him, it didn't dare to take action casually, but if it just roared a few times at these black-armored knights who dared to ride up to it, , then there shouldn’t be any big problem, right?
Anyway, that’s what it thinks!
It's a pity that before becoming the Ringwraith, these black knights, who were kings of a country, obviously would not easily let go of this troll who dared to roar at them casually.
Uh-huh!
So, when the nearest Nazgul was provoked, he just waved the long sword in his hand. After a black light and the sound of the long sword breaking through the air, the annoying troll roared, It stopped just like that!
"?!"
Now it was the troll's turn to be puzzled. It didn't understand why it suddenly couldn't make any sound. Moreover, it seems that... its own body is becoming less and less obedient? !
Then, after it blinked its huge and ridiculously dull eyes, its body began to sway. The next second, a line of blood appeared on its neck. Then, its huge head, He suddenly slid into the river, and almost at the same time, the huge headless body fell headlong towards the river bed...
Peng! !
When its body fell into the river and made a loud falling sound, the carriage behind it also turned sideways under the influence of its body!
"..."
"The water of the foggy mountains obeys my command... it flows fiercely and sweeps away these ring spirits in front of me..."
The female elf Yawen opposite, when she saw the lightning-fast sword of the Ring Spirit and the overturned ogre and carriage, her eyes flashed, and she could no longer care about anything else. She quickly lowered her head to concentrate and began to rush. The ground recited the water curse in a low voice!
She had already planned to use the great natural power of the foggy mountain water to wash away all the evil ring spirits in these rivers!
"Wow! You bad guys, how dare you hack to death the big smelly dog that I have raised for several years?!"
The moment the carriage overturned due to being driven by the ogre, Anne jumped out of the seat in the car with both hands and feet, and then stood on the overturned wheel, glaring at the man not far in front of her just now. The 'big smelly' black knight who dared to kill her!
"Hurry up and pay! Otherwise, I want you to look good!"
Now, she has begun to think about the strange black horse under the opponent's crotch.
"Although it looks ugly, stupid, disgusting, and smells bad, I don't like it very much...but it's not something you bad guys can just chop down if you want!"
Click!
Little Annie just stood on the overturned carriage wheel, holding her special 20 mm caliber super electromagnetic rifle in both hands, and while asking for compensation and threats, she did not forget to pull away immediately. Turn off the safety and load the electromagnetic rifle.
"Hiss!"
The black knight of the Nazgul who killed the ogre, when he saw that there was a little girl in the carriage and the girl dared to scold him, he turned around and roared loudly.
While he made a sharp sound like metal friction, he raised the black long sword in his hand again, intending to directly chop down the little human girl who dared to offend him!
"Wow! The big stinker who killed my family dares to attack me now?!"
Bang! !
Without thinking, Anne directly raised the muzzle of her rifle, aimed at the black knight who raised his sword and planned to ride his horse over to chop him, and shot him in the head!
A huge gunshot sounded, frightening all the ring spirits and causing the elf princess Yawen who was reciting a spell across the river to almost miss the spell. At the same time, the one who just now was planning to scream at Anne and slash with his sword. The human ring spirit was instantly shattered with its entire head and half of its body under the neck!
Then, the rest of his body that was still riding on the horse rolled away from the stirrup and flew up. After falling heavily onto the pebbles by the river, he began to twist wildly and soon fell into the air. Collapsed into a twisted, useless piece of black iron!
At the same time, the black horse under his crotch, after being frightened, turned around, screamed, spread its legs and ran away. After a while, it rushed into the woods and was never seen again...
"Hey! I asked you to kill the big smelly guy in my family, I didn't ask you to pay for it, and you still dare to hurt me!"
Sure enough, Anne felt in her heart that it would be more enjoyable to use weapons from the interstellar era to fight these magical creatures from the cold weapon era. One shot would be simple and hassle-free, and even the magic power of the fireball spell would be saved.
I don’t know since when, she herself has learned to be lazy! If it was something that could be solved with other equipment, then she wouldn't use her magic easily.
Of course, if she makes herself very angry, Annie will still choose to burn the other person with flames!
"!!"
The sudden change here surprised the four Ringwraiths who were planning to go over and capture the female elf.
Then, while trying to comfort their respective mounts, they all raised their swords and turned their horses' heads, all staring at the little boy who was standing on the wheel of the overturned carriage, holding a strange object in his hand. girl.
Looking at the iron pipe-like thing in the opponent's hand that was still slightly smoking, they felt that this thing seemed to have made a huge noise just now and 'killed' one of their companions at once?
What kind of artifact is that thing? Is it a staff? Or something else? How could it be so powerful that it could instantly crush the entire upper body of a powerful Nazgul? !
Well, what they actually don’t know is: this weapon can not only destroy a mere Nazgul wearing thin plate armor, but can also directly penetrate hundreds of millimeters of specially-made warship armor! In the Koprulu sector, those transport spacecraft or other fighter planes, when facing ghost agents, would they dare to fly lower?
"Quick! Kill her immediately!"
At this time, under the reminder of the leader, the remaining three Nazgul Knights finally came to their senses.
Although they still don't quite understand what kind of weapon the opponent is holding, this does not prevent them from making reasonable responses and judgments! Because, they all raised the long swords in their hands, and clamped the horse's belly with force again, intending to go forward and kill the little girl who was closer, holding a strange weapon in her hand, and posing a greater threat!
After killing the other party, isn't it too late to go back and catch the female elf and the halfling?
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In less than a second, before the opponent had time to approach his carriage, and after three consecutive huge gunshots, the leader of the Ring Spirits who had just ordered to rush towards the little girl found out helplessly: At this time At this moment, all his companions turned into twisted and broken humanoid iron remnants in the river or pebble beach? !
This... how can he play with this?
The last remaining Witch King of Angmar finally felt that things were a bit difficult...
A few steps away, the little girl's strange weapon was faintly pointed at herself! He, the leader of the Ringwraiths, the former king of evil Angmar, and the lord of Minas Morgul, really doesn't know what to do now!
Of course, he has now activated the power of fire in the sword in his hand, making himself look majestic! But... facing the enemy's incredible and terrifying weapon, it seems that its deterrence and attack speed are far stronger than his own flaming sword?
He is really at a loss now. Should he continue to attack and risk throwing a long sword to stab the opponent to death? Or should we just turn around and run away? If the opponent does not attack when you are escaping, this might be a very good choice?
I think back then, when they received the order from the Demon King Sauron and set out in disguise from the Morgul of Minas, there were a total of nine powerful ring spirits who were invincible and unstoppable in the northern kingdom of mankind!
But now? I finally found the trace of the Supreme Lord of the Rings, and I was about to get it and successfully complete the mission, but why now, I inexplicably met a ridiculously powerful little girl? And four more companions were beaten to death by the opponent all at once?
"..."
Now, the Witch King of Angmar doesn't know what to do. He doesn't dare to run away, but asking for mercy seems to be detrimental to his own face. He will never do that!
If it is one-on-one, or even when facing more enemies, he is not afraid! Because he has extremely powerful strength and an immortal body. As long as he is not attacked by certain weapons, he will never die!
However, when faced with this kind of magical attack method that he could not understand and had never seen before, he felt very troubled and embarrassed. He had never seen this kind of enemy and this kind of weird attack method. Yes...
"Let me talk to her! You idiot!"
Suddenly, an angry roar came from the heart of the Witch King of Angmar.
"Then, it's your turn now, strange undead... don't worry, it won't hurt! Anyway, you will be resurrected, right?"
A few days ago, on that night in Bray Town, it was these bastard accomplices who came to disturb me while sleeping, and even after warning them, they still didn't listen!
Annie still remembers this very clearly!
She thinks, she doesn't seem to take the initiative to offend them, right? Why do they still bother to provoke me every time? Look, now they not only hacked to death the big "horse" pulling their cart, but also overturned their own carriage, and finally wanted to hack themselves?
So, now she wants to kill the last black knight, and then, she also has to remember to keep the horse under him?
"Please wait! Powerful humans..."
After seeing that the other party planned to continue to use that terrible weapon against him, the Witch King of Angmar quickly reached out to stop him and put away his sword at the same time.
Then, he also removed his hood, allowing the other party to see his steel-armored head and face that looked like a pitch-black abyss.
"Now, my master has something to say to you, respected strong man..."
Just now, when his master Sauron contacted him directly, the Witch King of Angmar knew that it was this little girl who had killed the other four Ringwraiths a few days ago?
And now, the other party has eliminated four more?
It can be said that the nine Ringwraiths, who are said to be almost invincible in Middle-earth, are all about to be annihilated at the hands of the other party...
"Oh? It's actually a... semi-god-level great lich?"
"Aha! So, what do you want to say to me? Do you want to come here to apologize to me?"
Blinking and tilting her head, Anne quickly discovered the red vertical pupil that appeared in the opponent's iron helmet. From this point of view, the opponent must have used some kind of beyond-visual-range communication spell and passed Is this strange undead person in front of me having a direct conversation with myself?
"Hello...powerful witch..."
"I am Demon Lord Sauron... May I ask, which Valar are you following? Which Maia are you? Why have I never seen or heard of you?"
"I saw eternity in you... Did you come from Aman?"
At this time, masses of black mist gradually appeared on the body of the Witch King of Angmar, which seemed to be the manifestation of the ability of the demon king Sauron? Then, after staring at the little girl standing on the carriage wheel for a while, the red vertical pupils asked in a solemn tone.
Through close observation with his own eyes and the descriptions of the useless Ringwraiths who had died before, Sauron could basically tell: the little girl in front of him must be a powerful Maia (demigod) ! It's just... He doesn't know why, but the other party doesn't seem to be restricted by the gods? !
Sauron himself knew very well about Maia walking in Middle-earth and guiding elves and humans! Moreover, his master Morgoth also informed him of this!
In the First and Second Ages, after the lessons of the previous two wars, the gods believed that their power was too powerful and the damage they caused to the world and the earth was too great. The sinking of the island is the best proof!
Therefore, they feel that only by awakening the conscience and faith in the hearts of mortals, and only through the hard work of mortals themselves, can the victory achieved in this way be cherished by mortals.
Therefore, after Ilúvatar took action and directly sank the whole country of Numenor, including people and islands, to the bottom of the sea, he simply dug out the entire Aman continent from the middle-earth world and moved it to another space! Then he also turned the scroll of Arda, turning the originally round world of Middle-earth directly into a spherical shape!
Although Aman is no longer on the planet of Middle-earth, if the elves are willing, they can still go to Aman through a special passage to a place where all things are immortal, free from disease and injury, and eternal youth. Perfect Kingdom of God! After all, elves are the first-born children of the creator god Ilúvatar, and they are loved by all kinds of people. This is the privilege they have!
In the same way, if necessary, the gods on Aman or their messengers can also come to Middle-earth through special channels!
This is why Sauron had this reaction and confusion after seeing this little girl!
However, it stands to reason that the strength of all Maia who come to Middle-earth is strictly limited by the gods! Except in the most critical situations, they cannot show their full power, let alone show power that cannot be understood or that mortals cannot achieve in front of prisoners, so as not to arouse the greed of mortals and cause new harm. ?
Therefore, those experienced Maiya in the Middle-earth world provide their wisdom and knowledge to the mortals! To put it simply, the Maiyas who came to the middle of the road are actually some who play the role of guides. Their gods will not and are not allowed to use magic casually!
Of course, Maia, like Sauron, who betrayed the earth god Aulë and followed Morgoth, the largest of the two, would not be subject to this restriction. This is why he can always defeat Gandalf and Saru. Man is also the reason for Maiya’s existence! Anyway, his boss Morgoth is still imprisoned in the Void by the gods, and no one will care about him Sauron!
It can be said that once the demon king Sauron can be successfully resurrected, in the Middle-earth world where gods do not appear, he Sauron will really be a boss who can do whatever he wants!
"Maia? What Maia? I'm not Maia!"
She is just Anne, not some inexplicable mess of Maia! Moreover, she didn't quite understand what this big-eyed lich said.
"It's not Maia... Could it be that you are still Vera?!"
If the other party is really a Vera, then Sauron is really a little timid.
You must know that Vera is a god directly created by the creation god Eru Ilúvatar. It can also be said to be the son of god, which is far beyond the reach of his Maia-level existence!
Those Valar, whether they are the God of the Earth Aulë, the God of the Sea Ulmo, or his own boss Morgoth, they are all big bosses who can stir up troubles when they come out. An existence of Lun's level can deal with it.
He has the most Sauron, and he can only bully those Maia who were sent to Middle-earth and whose strength was strictly limited.
"What Maiya or Vera! I don't know what you are talking about, then, big-eyed monster, goodbye!"
Bang!
Annie won't care about these messy terms!
So, when she pulled the trigger and the last gunshot sounded, a hole the size of a bucket appeared in the body of the Witch King of Angmar who was temporarily remotely possessed by Sauron. And was thrown backwards by the huge force.
"Asshole! I will never let you go!!!"
The Demon Lord Sauron, who was talking to Anne through the body of the Witch King of Angmar, saw that this little girl was so unruly and turned against her at every turn, and he suddenly shouted angrily.
When the opponent's body was destroyed, countless black mist-like energy quickly drained out of the body. At the same time, the red pupils in his helmet also quickly dissipated!
Later, when the few remaining bursts of black mist emitted from the body of the leader of the Ring Spirits, he collapsed and twisted in the river for a while, howling in pain, and then curled up directly, letting the river soak and soak. Never move again...
At this point, the nine Ringwraiths under Demon King Sauron were declared destroyed for the first time under Anne's hands! As for when the other party will be resurrected in Minas Demon Cave, that is not what little Annie has to worry about.
They were just a few death knights with average strength and fearful auras, so they were not enough for her to take notice of.
"ah?!"
Yawen, who was staring blankly at everything in front of her, suddenly screamed.
Originally, she wanted to stop the spell after seeing the powerful little girl instantly destroying all the ring spirits. Suddenly, when she noticed the evil eyes of the little girl looking towards her, she instantly... I was shocked!
Then, she subconsciously released the water curse that she had prepared long ago but never had the chance to release!
Oops, too bad...
As soon as the spell was released, Yawen knew that she seemed to be in trouble? She actually accidentally ordered the flood to attack this little human girl who had just wiped out all the Ringwraiths for her?
Then, she couldn't allow her to think too much. In an instant, waves of roaring sounds that shook the earth began to be heard in the upper reaches of the river! Subsequently, the sound became louder and louder, closer and closer, and the shocking vibration became stronger and stronger!
"Huh? So it turns out that you natives also have this kind of power?"
While Annie frowned and looked at this strange elf and the little dwarf in the other person's arms who she had seen before and who now felt like he was about to die, a line of more than ten meters appeared at the mouth of the canyon above the river. Then, those terrible floods turned into huge galloping horses, with waves as hooves and water as their body, roaring towards her. Coming?
"Run! Run! I can't control them anymore!"
After seeing the little girl standing blankly on the wheels of the overturned carriage, still curiously looking at the galloping horse-shaped floods that were running down, Yawen was so frightened that she quickly reminded her loudly.
She knew the magic power of this water spell very well!
If the little girl didn't hide, she would be killed by the huge impact of the flood if she wasn't careful!
"How boring! Why should I run? Just because of these floods?"
Anne glanced disdainfully at the female elf who was anxiously shouting to her by the river, and then turned her head with interest, looking at the terrifying flood peak that was rushing down from the upstream and was about to hit her.
Ice shines!
After thinking about it, Annie reached her hand at the peak of the flood, and then threw an ice spell forward.
"this……"
Then, under the elf princess's unbelievably horrified gaze, Anne easily and instantly froze the entire river!
Yawen just saw that when the flood was about to hit the little girl, the other party just raised her little hand indifferently and threw an icy blue ball at the flood rushing towards her. Tiny ice crystals?
Then, in the next moment, the bone-chilling blue cold current flashed past, directly freezing the entire river including the flood peak into a large piece of condensed ice?
Even those huge galloping horses formed by the terrifying torrent, and those huge frozen horse hooves, were less than half a meter above the little girl's head? !
"Ilúvatar..."
"What on earth is happening here?! Little girl, who are you? Why are you using this power here in Middle-earth?!"
At this time, a long-bearded Gandalf, wearing a gray robe and a pointed wizard hat, riding a white horse and holding a wooden wand as tall as a person, led a group of high elves. The cavalry galloped out of the woods and solemnly asked the little girl in a questioning tone.
Just now, when he came out of the dense forest, he not only sensed the huge magic power, but also saw in time the tricks used by the little girl and the torrent of huge horses that were frozen into ice sculptures!
Uh... Also, those broken 'bodies' of the Ringwraiths scattered along the river bank and in the ice? This little girl, was she just fighting against the minions of the Demon King Sauron? !
However, even so, Gandalf felt that this was not the reason for the other party to use this extraordinary power in Middle-earth! This kind of behavior will not be allowed by the gods!
In this mortal world, you must be extremely cautious when using extraordinary power!
"There are...Arwen and...Frodo here?!"
Later, Gandalf noticed that something was obviously wrong with the stunned elf princess standing by the river, and the hobbit lying in her arms. It could even be said to be the dying hobbit Frodo?
Seeing this situation, Gandalf could no longer care about anything else and hurriedly rode over! He thinks that the Hobbit thing might be more important than the little girl who abused her extraordinary power?
"Frodo? Hold on! You must hold on!"
At this time, the elf princess Arwen, who was holding Frodo in her arms, finally came to her senses and hurriedly slapped Frodo on the face and shouted.
Because she found that the hobbit's body seemed to be getting colder and colder? !
"Quick! Take him back to Rivendell immediately! Immediately!"
After quickly checking the opponent's condition, Gandalf also understood the seriousness of the matter. After urgently casting some life-saving spells, he hurriedly half-snarled orders to the elf princess Arwen.
This hobbit is a very important step in his plan, and he must not be careless in the slightest! He didn't care whether the other hobbits died or not. Anyway, nothing would happen to Frodo!
"..."
After seeing Princess Arwen and the high elf cavalry who came with him turn around and return to Rivendell at high speed, he felt that he had time to turn his head and carefully look at the Nazgul who had just wiped out the whole place and became sick all over. The powerful little witch of the river.
"Hello, powerful little witch... My name is Gandalf, and I am a Maia who follows Varda, the God of Stars! Of course, you can also call me Oroin or Mithranda?"
Then, after thinking for a moment, he took off his hat, bowed, made a wizard salute and introduced himself.
"I don't know, can I invite you to be a guest in Rivendell?"
There were some things that he needed to talk to this wizard who seemed to be a little human girl. Of course, he had to make sure that Frodo was safe!
Therefore, he planned to invite this little witch to Rivendell, the territory of the high elves...
"Huh? Being a guest? Yes! But...do you have any good food there?"
