Chapter 163: The End of the Great War

"Could it be that the orcs are blocked by that bottle of poison?" Hu Bin thought about it with this in mind, and then vetoed this possibility. After all, the vestibule is not a confined space, and with the power of rare-grade elixirs, if the orcs rush hard at any cost, at most a hundred poisons will gradually become ineffective.

"The orcs are fighting on their own." Gandalf finally solved the riddle, but the answer made the crowd even more confused. The group of orcs went crazy and gave up their low-hanging fruit victory and began to kill each other, many of them turned their eyes to Lord Daer, they thought it was the effect of the potion, but even Lord Dale herself looked confused, she knew very well that the potion she had prepared did not have such an effect.

In fact, the reason why the orcs kill each other is really related to Daer, after the leader of the Orcs of the White Tower, Sawyer, was poisoned and died, according to the rules of the orc army, the command will fall into the hands of the adjutant or the second-level elite orcs. However, the second-level elite half-orcs in the White Tower Orcs obviously do not have such a strong appeal, and they each began to gang up to compete for the command, as for the humans in the Archium, in their opinion, they are already trapped beasts, and they are subconsciously ignored, anyway, as long as they compete for the command, then the huge credit for the capture of the White City will fall on whom's head.

The battle for command was originally a dispute within the Orcs of the White Tower, and several elite orcs would soon compete for the winner to take over the position of leader. But at this time, Fang, who was eager to make meritorious deeds, came here with his direct elite half-orc troops. What happened next was the plot of infighting that I liked to see, the Orcs of the White Tower and the Orcs of Modo were already full of contradictions, and with the temptation of great merit in front of them, the two sides soon escalated from the quarrel to the point of using knives.

The Orcs of the White Tower besieged the Orcs of Modo together with their large numbers, but Scar brought his most elite troops over in order to make meritorious contributions, although the number of elite orcs was small, but with the narrow entrance of the Consulate Gate. It was able to block the onslaught of the White Tower orcs, and as the battle escalated, the fangs side that had been supported by other Modo orcs gradually got rid of the numerical disadvantage.

Hu Bin was not surprised by such a situation at all, because in his cognition, even the humans in the neutral camp will have wars between countries, and the forces on the side of the evil camp are more prone to infighting.

The floor of the vestibule of the Consulate was already littered with orc corpses, and Scar was using a dagger to mend a White Tower elite orc. The subsequent Modo orc troops arrived here one after another and suppressed the White Tower Orcs who tried to resist. But Scar didn't have the joy of regaining command at all, because the army of the undead who had come to support White City had broken through the defensive line they had placed on the fourth floor of White City, and were sweeping away the remaining orc army in White City with incredible speed.

"Damn, if it weren't for these filthy White Tower mongrels, I would have killed all those humans a long time ago!" Scar said viciously as he stepped on the corpse of a White Tower orc, forgetting that he was the one who provoked the dispute.

Scar decided to continue leading the orcs to attack the Consulate, and the undead legion was broken through several of the orc's defenses in a short period of time, and Scar couldn't believe it. Although the orc troops left behind at the bottom are all ordinary troops, their number is amazing, and they can't even delay for some time. Scar thinks that even if he leads his troops back, he may not be able to stop those enemies, and it is better to surround and suppress the remaining Gondor defenders in a desperate way. Perhaps the head of the Regent of Gondor could offset his previous mistake of attacking the city.

But at this moment, the red light that rushed to the sky rose in the direction of the Doomsday Volcano, dispelling the dark clouds that had been silent there for many years, but it did not mean that the sunlight could be remapped to the evil land. Because a red ray that pierced the heavens and the earth appeared there, accompanied by lightning and thunder in the surrounding sky, the Doomsday Volcano seemed to have really ushered in the apocalyptic scene.

"Oh my God! No! Gandalf's feelings are most evident. Heaven and earth were clearly filled with a huge coercion, and even if he was far away from Modo, the white-robed wizard could still feel that powerful and evil power was converging. All indications are that the Demon Lord Sauron has been resurrected.

Now that the Demon Lord has been resurrected, the Supreme Ring must have returned to its original owner, Hu Bin thought of the fate of the two hobbits, who had traveled through mountains and rivers to reach Modo, but stepped on their own strange path step by step. Hu Bin is actually against the establishment of the Fellowship of the Ring, in his opinion, such an action is simply giving Sauron the Lord of the Rings to hand, Gandalf trusts the hobbits too much in stealth ability, but they don't know that Old Baggins and he relied on the power of the Ring to survive when he took risks, even if Frodo has the luck of the protagonist against the sky, the danger must be described as nine deaths, and obviously, Frodo did not seize that glimmer of life.

The outcome of the Battle of the White City is no longer relevant to the fate of Middle-earth, even if the humans win this battle, they will only delay their own demise, it is no longer the era of heroes three thousand years ago, the elves are far away, the dwarves are unknown, the human race is falling apart, the original anti-Sauron alliance no longer exists, and Gondor will eventually have to pay for the mistakes of their ancestor King Aesizer.

Fang's troops were overwhelmed by the influx of undead army before they could see the people in the depths of the Consulate, and he had miscalculated that even the army of the undead would not be able to solve the defense line of a large number of orcs at the bottom of the White City so quickly. Aragorn's order to support the White City as soon as possible and preserve the last defenders, so they directly used their nothingness to pass through several walls, rushed straight from the foot of the mountain to the top of the White City, and collided with the fangs who had just received the news.

For a while, the yin wind in the Consulate was crying and howling, and there was not an inch of grass left where the army of the undead passed, and the blood on the corpses of the dead orcs had already solidified before they could splash out, and An Qing's corpse had infinite horror on its face.

After encountering the surviving defenders in the depths of the Consulate, the Undead Legion split into two teams from the middle of the city and surrounded the survivors in the middle to protect them, and then the undead left some of their men behind, and rushed out of the Consulate again, this time with the task of clearing all enemies on the battlefield.

"Are we saved?" One of the numbered men said stupidly, still on guard, before he spoke up after a while.

As more and more people realize that these undead are reinforcements on their side. The cheers finally rang out in the crowd, and Gandalf gathered up his spirits and walked over to the group of undead, trying to communicate with them while the numbered ones collapsed, rejoicing in the aftermath of their lives.

Half an hour ago, they were facing the danger of total annihilation, and it was impossible for anyone to calmly accept the sudden salvation.

Hu Bin tried to throw a probe at the undead, but a bunch of question marks appeared in the spatial prompt. Wasted his hundred gold coins in vain. There are not a few numberers who do this to Hu Bin, and their bitter appearance makes Hu Bin's heart balance a lot.

The battle basically had nothing to do with them, and after the reinforcements of Rohan broke the main force of the orcs, they collided with the follow-up Lune, and although the War Elephant Legion caused great trouble to Rohan's cavalry, Hu Bin believed that as the undead legion entered the battlefield, the balance of victory would soon tilt in favor of the human side.

The regent finally appeared in front of everyone, looking as if he was more than ten years old, but his spirit was extremely excited. He had previously delegated all command to his son Boromir. He then hid in the inner room and waited for the outcome of the battle, and after receiving the news of his rescue, he drank all the wine on the table in one gulp, and then slowly put the clenched dagger into the drawer.

The surviving Gondor soldiers began to clean up the corpses of the orcs in the Consulate, while the poisoned corpses in the vestibule were burned on the spot to prevent their own poisoning. Numberers have joined these jobs, and they have found that they still earn a small amount of battlefield contribution.

Hu Bin also joined the post-war finishing work, and he who had completed the main quest was not for contribution, but purely to help. He unexpectedly found some interesting information. That is, the orcs who were killed by the undead had a lot of ash-like powder left around them, and the identification given by the space was actually the embers of the undead.

"It seems that the undead are not invincible, but their attacks are too fierce. The traces left after the sacrifice are not obvious, so it is considered invincible and invincible. "Twisted some embers with his hands and rubbed them, the powder quickly evaporated under the action of the light element naturally emitted by Hu Bin, it seems that no matter what world he is in, the light attribute can pose a great threat to the undead.

There are many places where embers were found, it seems that the casualties caused by the half-orc's dying counterattack to the undead are not small, these embers slowly dissipate in the air, and finally leave no trace, Hu Bin seems to hear the sighs of countless souls, is this kind of death in battle a rest in another sense.

Many numberers have also discovered the embers of these undead, and some have even begun to collect these things of unknown value, but Hu Bin, who has a low-level mage recognition level, knows that these powders have no value at all, except for the extremely weak power of the curse, they are about the same value as the sand on the ground, and they are extremely difficult to preserve. Also stained with a slight cursed debuff due to exposure to too much undead embers.

The corpses of the orcs who died at the hands of the undead also made Hu Bin very interested, these corpses did not have open external injuries on their bodies, but instead there were blue and purple traces, it seems that the attack method of the undead legion is an energetic infiltration method. Hu Bin endured nausea and dug open the corpse of the half-orc, and found that his blood had already coagulated into a gelatinous form, and the internal organs and muscles were also attached to a layer of obscure gloom, according to Hu Bin's knowledge of magic, this half-orc was tortured by the effects of curses, freezing and corruption before he died, and the coagulation of blood all over his body was the fatal reason.

As the cleaning of the corpses proceeded in an orderly manner, more and more corpses that died under the knives of the undead legion were found, and Hu Bin also obtained more and more information, including wounds and partial decomposition of the bodies of some half-orcs, and as this information was sorted out and summarized by Hu Bin, a prompt finally came from the space, and the veil of the undead legion was displayed in front of Hu Bin.

The undead who make up the undead legion are not undead creatures in the traditional sense, but naturally formed heroic spirits, the same type of troops and the ancestral souls of the orc race, etc., this kind of undead creatures usually retain the memory and strength of their lives, have their own will and wisdom, and after becoming undead creatures, they have gained a lot of racial characteristics, and after death, their will is more or less evil bias They become more dangerous than before they were alive.

Low-level Heroic Warriors possess the properties of Avatar and can effectively dodge physical attacks. However, he is very afraid of energy attacks, and automatically masters the special effects of ice attribute attacks, and after attacking the flesh of living beings, he can also randomly attach some low-level curses and dark negative effects. The high-level Heroic Warrior has a more advanced Void Body, and its resistance to energy attacks has also increased, and the attack is no longer a simple frost attribute, but also has rare attributes such as aging and corrosion, which is a very dangerous class. Valhallic Warriors are not immune to physical attacks, they can dodge physical attacks entirely, but they use their own energy to void their bodies. The larger the range of each ake, the more energy is consumed. And for the Heroic Spirits, who are equivalent to pure energy creatures, the exhaustion of energy is when they are terminated.

Judging from the size of the undead legion, there are at least 30,000 Heroic Knights, who can theoretically defeat ten times the number of ordinary armies themselves, which is a rare wealth for the human alliance that is in dire need of combat power to fight against the demon lord Sauron, but unfortunately, the Heroic Spirits who fulfilled their promise washed away the shame of their lives and dissipated into heaven and earth with the permission of Aragorn, the owner of the Sword of Kings.

The reinforcements of the Kingdom of Lohan lost most of their men in the battle against the Runians, and even King Xiudon was seriously wounded, but unlike in the original story. Theudon did not confront the Witch King, which allowed him to survive his mortal injuries and be protected by his men.

After the undead legion cleared the orcs in the White City, it directly swept the entire plain battlefield, and neither the War Elephant Legion nor the Orc Elite Legion were the enemies of these heroic spirits. Even the Sagmar Witch King and several other Ringwraiths made the decision to retreat in front of them, and eventually the dark side, which had left countless stiff corpses, retreated in disarray.

There was no joy in the alliance after the victory, and both the kingdoms of Gondor and the kingdoms of Rohan paid great sacrifices in this battle. Minas Tirith, the former first male city of mankind, has lost its former glory and has been devastated by the war, and the biggest headache for the Alliance is the complete resurrection of the Demon Lord Sauron. This means that Mordo's orcs could make a comeback at any time, when they will be more numerous and more aggressive.

The numberers of the dark side suffered heavy losses in this battle, almost 80% of them were lost in the siege of the White City and the subsequent plains melee, while the remaining numberers fled from the fortress of Ojo to Mordo with the remnants of the orcs, but the survivors basically completed the requirements of the main quest, and most of them decided to return to space, except for a few who wanted to stay in this world.

Although many of the numberers on the human side have survived, a more brutal future awaits them. Except for a few lords and a small number of people who completed the main quest, most of the numberers of the Gondor faction did not complete the main quest and had to stay here for the next Battle of Mordor. And the numbered ones in the Kingdom of Rohan are even more tragic, they were delayed because they did not arrive at the battlefield in time and lost the opportunity to get extra contributions, and they were robbed by the undead legions of Aragon on the main battlefield, and almost no one met the requirements for contributions, and all of them were ordered to participate in the next battle.

The bitter fruit left behind before was destined to be swallowed by the numberers themselves, because of the delay on the part of the Rohan kingdom, the numberers on the side of Gondor almost suffered a total annihilation. However, the numberers on Rohan's side were ambushed close to the White City, but they did not receive information from Gondor's side, causing them to lose a lot of contribution points they had won. This creates a thick barrier between the numberers of Gondor and Rohan.

In the battle of Mordor in the original plot, the human side already had a very obvious numerical disadvantage, and the Terran army that had traveled a long way to the foot of the Doomsday Volcano had to face the elite Orc troops of Mordo who were three times their size and were waiting for the rest of their lives, not to mention that the fully resurrected Demon Lord Sauron would not let them easily come to the fortress of Barado.

However, this has nothing to do with Hu Bin and Hebrew and other lord numberers, they have completed the main quest of this world, and they don't have to participate in that battle with obvious disadvantages, as for the others, they can only send themselves a blessing.

After Hebrew and the others completed the task, they all chose to stay in this world for a period of time, the largest treasure in the Lord of the Rings world, the Supreme Ring, is not something that can be touched by the numbered person at this stage, and several other rings are in the hands of powerful plot characters, and there is basically no chance to obtain them. However, this does not mean that the Lord of the Rings world is not profitable, both dwarves and elves contain a lot of opportunities, not to mention the amazing reserves of Mithril under the Moriath Mine, it can be said that the extra time allowed by the space is the biggest reward for these numberers to complete the main quest.
