Chapter 17: The Death of Saruman

With the rout of the Orc army, Shoko received a hint of the Soul Seal:

"Main quest 3: The Lord of War is completed, and the completion of the quest rewards 5,000 soul points and 1 free attribute point. Idoras and the elven reinforcements killed 803 people in this battle**, deducting 803 points, you will finally get 4197 soul points. ”

"From now on, you can return to the Sanctuary during any non-combat time, and you can still stay in the scene for up to three days, and if you end up killing the enemy leader, the white-robed wizard Saruman, you will be rewarded with 1 gold skill point and the title of 'Lord of War'"

"The first step of your job transfer task is completed, and the second step is opened: you need to obtain three shadow essences, use them to sacrifice to the soul altar, and the soul tree Nordahir will help you succeed in your job transfer."

Just when Shawco thought that the prompt of the Soul Temple had been completed, the Soul Mark imprinted a message in his consciousness: "A strong career is an important step towards your success, congratulations, No. 00357, I hope you will continue to work hard and climb the peak!" ”

A chill ran through Shoko's heart, and an indescribable sense of absurdity rose from his heart: the Temple's words were spoken with encouragement, and that was the biggest problem! Because the voice of the temple has always been cold and mechanical, there has never been such a human dialogue, and the first step of this transfer mission is like a pie falling on Shawko's head......

Something must have changed in the temple!

All of the Light Side trialists received a prompt to complete the main quest three, and they cheered loudly, some even with tears in their eyes. In this war, they made the impossible possible together, and they created a miracle together! It was truly a glorious moment to remember forever!

The next moments are even more exciting, as the Templars begin to reward them for battle!

Skipping others aside, the King's Landing team has gained the following:

Including Coster, each person gets 26,885 soul points!

Level 1 Basic Melee Scroll Γ— 2

Level 2 Melee Mastery Scroll Γ—1

Evil Sawtooth (Two Hand Sword Weapon, Green Quality, Attack 20~35, C+, Strength+2, Durability 31/31)

Unholy Steel Warframe (Top, Green Quality, Defense +6, Constitution +2, Durability 26/26)

Blood FlaskΓ—5 of Evil Frenzy (Increases strength by 1 when used)

B-Rank Skill Scroll: Evil Armor-Piercing Attack (Passive Skill, Level 1 Effect: You gain 15% Armor-Piercing and 3% more damage when you use other Attack Skills)

In the distribution of the spoils, Schucko was very fair. Xiao Ke asked each of the four members of the team to take out 15,000 soul points and collect 60,000 points to give to Koster, because more than half of these massive soul points were obtained from Koster's first blast!

In terms of the distribution of items, Xiao Ke gave Koster a first-level basic melee scroll, 1 bottle of Evil Mad Blood Elixir, a green two-handed sword was also given to him, and the B-level skill scroll was also given to Koster. His explosive skill combined with the support of this skill will deal terrifying damage!

But when Coster received this unprecedented harvest, he hesitated, and he asked tremblingly, "The ...... I...... Can I ......?"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Ke smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You want to ask if you can stay in my team, right?" To be honest, you've done us a lot of favors this time, and we should let you stay for that. However, our next time we are going to challenge the final trial, and I have heard that the final trial is dangerous, and we don't necessarily have the energy to protect you. Therefore, I leave the decision to you, if you have the consciousness to face death, then what does it matter if you are left behind? ”

Coster was silent, he thought for a long time, and suddenly sighed, "It's not that I don't have the consciousness to face death, but my combat power is too weak, and I can only be a burden with you." Forget it, I'd better quit the team first, but-"

He suddenly traded another 10,000 soul points to Xiao Ke, and then said: "If I quit the team, you will lose 10,000 soul points, and I will bear this loss, I just want to exchange these for a chance, if I have the ability to catch up with you in the future, I hope you can give me another chance to join the team!" ”

Shoko laughed: "No problem! 10,000 points to buy me is more than enough, hahaha"

Koster smiled: "Thank you! "Gritted his teeth and chose to quit the King's Landing team!

The huge gains of this war made all the trialists of the Light side happy, and the 'Demoman' Coster gave an extra 10,000 soul points to everyone to divide equally, because everyone contributed explosives, so they should also have a share of the rewards.

When the spoils were divided, under the influence of the unprecedented high morale, none of them returned to the shelter, but all chose to stay, and followed the Hussar army of Idoras to Esinger! You know, the reward for killing Saruman is very tempting, and everyone wants to try their luck!

The Trialists followed Gandalf, King Heyudun, and others as they marched into Isengar with the mighty army of hussars! This time the offensive and defensive forms were reversed, and there was a feeling of turning over the serf and singing in everyone's hearts, which was really lofty and triumphant!

Of course, the form is by no means entirely optimistic, and due to the intervention of the Dark Side Trialists, the plot of Issinger being bulldozed by the Ente Tree people should not happen like in the movie. So, everyone is ready to fight another tough battle!

However, after two days of rapid marching, when the army saw Isenger from afar, the trialists were stunned by what they saw.

Esinger's black steel tower still stands tall, but just like in the movies, it's a land of Ze!

Could it be that the task of killing Saruman would be as easy as it was in the movies? Isenger has been bulldozed by the Treants? The trialists of the dark side are so stupid and incompetent, when they know the plot early, can't even the tree people defend themselves?

But the Trialists soon found it confusing, if the Treants had destroyed Isengard, then where were they? In this vast space, there is not even a living life.

Confused and slightly uneasy, the crowd followed Gandalf and King Heudon to the foot of the Magic Tower, where Gandalf suddenly beat his staff and shouted like a chant, "Saruman! We are here, come out and face your fate! "The sound wasn't very loud to the ears of the trialists, but it went straight into the sky, sending out a thunderous echo in the air!

At a height of 100 meters from the base of the Magic Tower, there is a platform where you can look out over the whole of Isengard, and on the platform, a tall steel gate leads to the inside of the Magic Tower.

With Gandalf's shout, the door opened.

The white-robed wizard Saruman, the mastermind behind the almost single-handedly destruction of the Rohan Kingdom, appeared in front of everyone with a disheveled hair and a pale face.

He slowly moved to the railing of the platform, staring blankly at the army of Idoras, with extreme fear on his face, he opened his mouth as if to say something, but suddenly, from his ears, nose, eyes, and mouth, black blood gushed out!

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and at the moment when they didn't know what to say, he was suddenly penetrated from behind, and a green jade hand like clotted fat passed through his chest, but it was not stained with a drop of blood, and it was presented in front of everyone.

Wanqing raised her jade arm, picked Saruman in the air, and shook her hand gently, Saruman fell from a height of 100 meters, and her body fell in front of everyone, falling apart!

Wanqing stood on a high place and looked down at everyone, and finally fell on Xiao Ke, she smiled lightly: "Xiao Ke, don't come unharmed!" ”

Xiao Ke grinned: "You mother-in-law, you are still so ruthless!" ”

Wanqing snorted coldly, but her voice was as graceful as a lark, and she said, "Don't think you won against me, you're just cheating this time." You should know that if I had fought to the death, I would have killed you! At that time, it was the dark side that won! ”

Fu Tian continued: "I don't think you'll do that, or you'll be a fool even stupider than Shoko!" ”

Wanqing covered her mouth and chuckled, she compared her jade hand to a pistol and aimed at Xiao Ke and said, "Xiao Ke, we will meet again, next time you have to hold on a little longer, don't surrender so quickly!" With that, she let out a brisk and melodious laugh, opened the portal to return on the spot, and turned to step in!

Behind her, Hine gracefully bowed to the crowd and entered the shelter!

Everyone looked at Shoko with strange expressions, including Gandalf. No matter how thick Xiao Ke's skin was, he couldn't hold it anymore, and he shouted loudly: "Look at everything!" Uncle Ben insisted on it for a long time, and everyone can see it under the walls of the Holy Helmet Valley! ”

Ling Feng suddenly smiled and said, "From a psychological point of view, if a man can't do it on one side, he will often try his best to prove himself on the other side!" Everyone laughed and coaxed.

Xiao Ke was embarrassed and said angrily: "You are all idle and have nothing to do, right?" Seeing that the three-day deadline is approaching, and now that Saruman is dead, there is no one to gain, so let's go back to the shelter if there is nothing to do! ”

The trialists laughed loudly and said goodbye to Gandalf and the others.

Just as the King's Landing team was about to leave, Gandalf suddenly spoke out to keep them, and said to Shoko, "Hero, thanks to you, the Valley of the Holy Helm has not been fallen by the enemy. This is a small gift from me personally, and I hope it will help you in your future battles. ”

Xiao Ke took it and was overjoyed.

"Mislanda's Gift (Necklace, Blue Quality, Dexterity +2, Spirit +2, Equipped with Skills: Moonlight Impact, Gathers the energy of Moonlight and Starlight, Shocks the target, dealing 60 damage, or heals the target by 60 HP, with a cooldown of 10 minutes. You can recharge it by spending soul points at the Magic Altar, or directly on a plane with moonlight and starlight, and you can use the skill 3 times each time you charge it. This skill deals 100% more damage to undead, demons, and shadow creatures, and trialists with elven blood can gain an additional 10% movement speed bonus when wearing this item. )”

Xiao Ke has been worrying about Elena's single attack a little weak recently, this necklace came at the right time, not to mention that Elena has an extra speed bonus when she wears it, it is simply tailor-made for her!

After handing over the necklace to Elena, Xiao Ke laughed and said to several plot characters: "It's time for us to return, this goodbye, I'm afraid it will be indefinite, don't miss me too much, hahaha!" ”

Gandalf smiled and said to him, "No, hero, I have a hunch that we will meet again!" After saying that, she winked at him.

Xiao Ke was stunned, and in his doubts, he opened the portal to return.
