In the west valley of the Holy Helmet Valley, dark clouds are overhead, lightning and thunder are roaring, and torrential rain is slanting down. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info a gust of wind blew from the east, blocking the path of the dark clouds, and it was difficult to advance an inch in the west valley.

The changes in the wind and clouds in the sky could not affect the ground, the air in the early morning was exceptionally fresh, and there was no rainstorm or wind in Fort Horn outside the dark clouds.

However, in front of the walls of Fort Clarrum, the army of black-pressed orcs and denlanders had entered from the mouth of the Valley of the Holy Helm, and gathered here, waiting for the order to attack. The Horn Fort was crowded with archers, including regular archers from the Rohanate, infantry officers, young men from the ranks of refugees, and even a few old men with angry and fearful faces.

Edward was still standing on the tower of Fort Clarrum, his hands held high, his eyes closed, and his face solemn.

His face was a little pale, and the magic array under his feet was slowly fading - Edward's magic crystal was only at the elite level, and this mana was obviously a bit difficult to fight against Sauron's dark clouds, not to mention that the mana required to communicate with the elements was not comparable to ordinary magic, and this kind of earth-destroying spell was especially consuming mana without the support of elemental spirits.

Sauron's dark clouds aren't just pretty, they are furious and nimble, and they're born to be in the dark. Torrential rain from dark clouds can obscure the archer's vision and make people feel uncomfortable. The main thing is that dark clouds can block out the sun, and trolls can move freely in the shadows without being turned to stone by the sun.

Once the dark clouds overwhelm the realm, then the strength of the Saruman army will increase to a higher level as a whole.

It had been three days since Edward arrived at Fort Clarion, and during those three days he had been using the power of the wind elemental to block the advance of the dark clouds. The actions of Saruman's army confirmed his suspicions, and they assembled in front of Fort Clarion every day for three days, and began to withdraw when the clouds did not arrive, and so on for three days, apparently waiting for the clouds of Sauron to arrive before attacking.

Edward held out on to the tower for three full days, with very little time to rest and regain his mana, most of the time he continued to cast spells. He was now almost at the end of his crossbow, and the mana in the magic crystal was depleted, and he saw that he was powerless to stop the advance of the dark clouds.

But Edward did not panic, he slowly withdrew his mana, and the wind in the sky immediately stopped, and the dark clouds once again headed in the direction of Horn Castle.

Seeing this, the orc army let out a series of roars, and they beat their shields neatly to boost their morale.

Most of the soldiers on the Horn Fort showed solemn expressions, their whole bodies tense, ready for the upcoming fierce battle.

The clouds arrived as expected, the rain drenched everyone on the battlefield, and the Saruman army sounded the horn of attack, and the trolls who had previously been hiding in the caves of the Valley of the Helmet howled and rushed to the walls, joining the siege with the trolls.

"It's up to you, white-robed wizard. From the top of the tower, Gandalf and three rare Witcher Knights human priestesses stepped forward, and Edward stepped back, leaving Gandalf facing the dark clouds in the sky.

"We'll do our best!" One of the human priestesses was very excited, the three of them were originally caravan maids who had arrived in the town of Holy Light from Rohan, but they were taken by Arwen and joined the knights, becoming a very rare human female priest in the knights' priest camp. Later, Iomer led the paladins of the Rohan kingdom back to China, and they also set off with the team.

From handmaidens to priests fighting Sauron's magic, the three priestesses were thrilled to be able to play a part in this epic battle. What's more, along with them, there are also the legendary dragon slayer Edward, and the white-robed saint Gandalf!

"Don't be nervous, don't get excited, relax your mind. Edward smiled and said to the third woman, "Our mission is to provide Gandalf with the power of the Light so that he can dispel the dark clouds in the sky!"

The third girl nodded, closed her eyes, and began to brew the holy light.

Gandalf glanced at the fierce battle that had begun below and raised his staff.

"Great Iluvita, please grant me divine power to dispel the darkness and evil that shrouds the light!"

Gandalf chanted the incantation, and Edward could feel the powerful divine power from afar envelop the white-robed saint and gather into his staff, emitting a powerful white light.

Edward and the three priests immediately radiated their own light along with Gandalf's holy power.

This divine power suddenly emanated from the top of the tower, drawing the attention of everyone on the battlefield.

The light of holiness was seen falling from the sky, piercing the thick dark clouds and dispelling the darkness that hung beneath them.

There was a jaw-dropping situation on the battlefield - on the side of Fort Horn, the sky was clear and the air was filled with the smell of sacredness. On the side of Saruman's army, there was lightning and thunder, and heavy rain poured down. Countless orcs who rushed towards the city wall were screaming at the light of this holy light, and they were either killed by the rain of arrows or fled in confusion. The trolls, who were afraid of the light, were even more miserable, and as soon as they were illuminated by the sun, they immediately howled miserably and turned into a stone statue.

The sudden change of events caused the morale of Saruman's army to plummet, and at this time only barbarians, orcs and trolls insisted on attacking the city.

This was not enough to rout the Saruman's army, who were overwhelmingly outnumbered, and the Orc Overseers in the rear would kill anyone who dared to retreat.

Barbarians and orcs rushed under the walls with their shields in hand, and the siege ladders were erected, and a large number of strong orcs began to climb the walls at the risk of death; the trolls used their tall and strong bodies to constantly pound the small gates on the smooth stairs outside the walls; the few trebuchets behind the army also began to roar and attack, and huge cobblestones were thrown indiscriminately near the walls.

At this time, there was no gap between the city wall and the Saruman army, and it was filled by the black and oppressed enemy army. The bows and arrows on the walls could be shot at will, and almost every arrow could be shot, but the strong orcs who climbed up were either wearing hard plate armor or wearing shields on their heads, and the power of the bows and arrows was weakened to a minimum, and soon strong orcs and barbarians climbed the walls.

Jin Li stood directly on the city wall, holding a long-handled double-edged axe and constantly harvesting the lives of the enemy. Legolas retrieved the bow and arrows that had killed a large number of enemy soldiers, and together with his pet Sorey, armed with a double-headed blade, fought the enemy troops who had climbed the walls.

The four of Iome, Iowen, Aragorn, and Shiyud were behind the small city gates, ready to go. The staircase, which stretched from the city wall to the small gate at the city wall, could only accommodate four men advancing side by side, and the four of them were ready to block the enemy troops entering from here.

At this moment, a loud noise appeared on the battlefield, and the central wall of Hornfort was blown away by a huge explosion, and the huge explosion force blasted several boulders that made up the city wall. The people who stood on this section of the wall, as well as those who were hit by the boulders, all died without exception.

The walls of Fort Clarion have been breached!
