Chapter 608: Compulsory Quest First: Isengard's Wizard Tower

Galadriel's gifts to all were ancient, equally precious, and perfect for those who received them, for the Empress was equally concerned about whether her gifts would be of the greatest use.

Aragorn received a scabbard made especially for the Holy Sword by Anduriel, with foliage and flowers inlaid with gold and silver, elven text inlaid with many gems, and a blessing from the Empress, "The weapon drawn from this scabbard will not break or deface even if it is defeated." ”

Legolas was given a golden bow that was slightly inferior to an artifact, and a pot of enchanted arrows with a blessing, and a delicate quiver inlaid with a beautiful golden peacock, "I have given you the bow of Galatrem, and from now on wherever you can see, your bow will point." ”

Boromo was given a golden belt, and instead of being tempted by the Ring as in the original, he entered into a different fate, "I give you a belt of heavenly strength, and the brave warriors of Gondor will be even braver." ”

Jin Li still did not get out of the original fateful arrangement, he still asked Galadriel for a hair, intending to bring it back and hide it in the crystal that will never fade, and become a family heirloom for the love of the children and grandchildren, as a symbol of goodwill between the people of the mountains and the people of the trees, and the empress still gave him three strands of her own golden hair, which is itself a magical condensation, so that the dwarf's mental state has been kept at its best.

In addition, Kira and Flora also received gifts that matched them, and Kira, who was also the empress, received a crown in the true sense of the word, which gave her more sober thinking and judgment. Flora, who already possessed a holy sword, was given a necklace with the light of the stars flowing, "You have the most precious happiness and heart, so I give you the light of Elendil." Our greatest star, we hope that it will be able to show you the way in the darkness when all light is extinguished. ”

The gift of the dozen or so royal guards who accompanied Kira was a precious blessing, making their heavy armor look like an extension of their limbs, as if they had been smelted from pig iron into tough steel.

As for Xiao Lan himself, he had already received his own gift before. There is no material quality of that precious knowledge.

Of course, while receiving these precious gifts, there is also a task that must be completed: to defend the Valley of the Holy Helmet from being captured. Failure will be deducted for A-level side plots once, and 10,000 points will be awarded.

It's like an overlord clause, using Galadriel's gift as a reward for an advance, forcing them to complete this task that is definitely not easy. Zhang Xiaoxue and Haotian didn't join in, it was really like having foresight, which could be regarded as wise self-preservation. But the only thing that can be thankful is that there is no mention of killing Saruman, capturing Isenger and other projects, which is equivalent to a side plot that can be obtained, which can be regarded as some relief in helplessness.

However, things will never be so simple, because after Galadriel gave gifts one by one, a group of elven warriors walked silently in a neat queue out of the golden forest behind her, all of them wearing hidden elf cloaks and elven chain mail that did not hinder movement, carrying delicate bows and arrows, swords and spears, and the elf led by it was the Halda that Xiao Lan had seen before!

"Your Highness Galadriel. You," Flora in the expeditionary force frowned and whispered, but the Empress's voice immediately rang out in her head. "Women have to hold themselves up when the man is away, but your understanding of fate is too superficial, Halda's troops are the greatest help that Lothlorin can provide, and as for his fate of dying in the Battle of the Valley of the Holy Helm, I don't think running away will solve the problem...... Let him face it all on his own. ”

The female knight was silent, then let out a long sigh.

The more help Galadriel provides, the more it proves to be a difficult task.

According to all the gifts given by the Empress to the expeditionary force, the value of the elite elven warriors led by Halda combined, the enemies they need to face are definitely not easy to solve, at least Xiao Lan no longer thinks that he can finish the matter by liberating the forbidden sword at one time, but as the Battle of the Valley of the Holy Helmet that will usher in the dawn at the most dangerous moment in the trajectory of fate, as long as Gandalf can arrive with Iomo's hussars as in the original plot, what he has to do in principle is only to defend a wall before that, is such a task difficult?

At first glance, it seems that it is not difficult, but this conclusion is based on the fact that Saruman is still the Saruman of the original work, and after the intervention of an unexpected reincarnation, the situation can never be considered in a "natural" way-

Xiao Lan thought of this, so he was no longer here.

After Galadriel had explained her intended gift last night, the Majin soared into the sky overnight and flew south, crossing the charred forest of Fagon when the expedition was sent south from Lothlorin as reinforcements from Rohan, led by Aragorn and Flora from the Anduin River on the Elven boat, and set off from the waterway with the aliens who swam faster than they could run.

Xiao Lan, who looked down from the sky, clearly saw everything on the ground, and also clearly saw the most conspicuous part of the charred wreckage, the most central part of the ancient forest has magical power, can stimulate the life potential of living beings, and let the trees awaken to become tree people's "fountain of life" has been destroyed, and the only remaining liquid is also contaminated into a twisted scarlet, Xiao Lan originally planned to use legitimate means to obtain some of the spring water, although he and Flora are basically not likely to have much effect, But it's definitely not a problem to bring out the potential of Kira, but now, if he's right, nine out of ten of this ancient power has been robbed by that roganda, and I just don't know how much benefit he's gotten from it.

However, this sad scene only stayed in Xiao Lan's consciousness for a while, because at the end of the stump and broken wood that was tragically cut down and burned in the ancient forest, it was already clear that it was no longer a grassy wizarding valley, and at this moment Isengh looked like a cemetery that was unwilling to be lonely, countless tunnels went straight into the ground, there were many winding channels and huge caves underneath, huge furnaces, steel wheels were turning here day and night, the hammer never stopped knocking, and the tunnel would emit a lot of steam, and the red light underneath, blue light, or eerie green light.

All the roads in this place lead to a tower, a majestic tower built by ancient craftsmen, and the entire wall of Isengar is their handiwork. However, the tower does not resemble a human creation, but rather a skeleton pulled from the ground. It was actually an isolated rock peak, its black surface reflecting light, and four massive polyhedron were forcibly fused together, only to spread out at the top, the tip as sharp as the tip of a spear, and the edge as sharp as a blade. Between these sharp rocks is a platform with strange symbols carved into the polished ground, and one who stands on it can overlook the ground from a height of nearly five hundred feet above the ground: the Tower of Osak, the fortress of Saruman, the wizard's tower of the white-robed wizard.

"Never deal with a mage in the Mage Tower."

Even if this world doesn't seem to follow the DND law, Xiao Lan had this thought in her heart when she saw this tower, and she immediately realized the meaning of this sentence with her own experience.

When the demons were planning to take advantage of the strong orc army to come out of the nest to give Isenger a draw, the dense rune array on the surface of the Tower of Osak suddenly flickered, and the huge energy from the depths of the leylines rolled and gathered, and at the same time that the endless runes flew up as if they had woken up, Xiao Lan, who was about to transform into the form of a demon god and cause great destruction in the most direct way, heard a burst of words that seemed to come from outside the sky, but directly penetrated into the soul, Like the blasphemous words of the fire demon, his consciousness suddenly burst into a vague demonic sound, and at this moment when his expression froze for a moment, a laser beam of lightning that was more than three meters wide and exploded, enough to melt through the strongest defenses, burst out from the top of the tower! (To be continued......)
