Chapter 123: The Battle of Rising 2

Bion rode a tall horse and traveled with the elf Haldir to Roslorian. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info was accompanied by a group of skin-clad men who were as tall as Bhion, and more dwarves riding goats.

Hardir is very interested in the Phis, and asks Bion about the Phiskins along the way.

However, Bion did not say much, and the taciturn leader of the Phis, after the battle of the Five Armies, was secretive about his race. He was reluctant to tell anyone about the secrets and history of the Phis, not even the peace-loving Elves.

With the exception of Edward and Gandalf, Bion didn't trust anyone, including the woodland elves and lonely mountain dwarves who were close to him and expressed their friendliness.

The Phi Men who followed Bion were the people of Bion who had been rescued from the rout of the Orc army since the Battle of the Five Armies. Their minds and bodies have been tortured, and even after so many years of peaceful life, they have not been wary of other races.

Bion may be the strongest of the Phiskins, but he is not a good leader. He didn't even want to live with them, but simply hid them in the mountains and forests near his dwelling, and he was alone in the face of the invading orcs.

The Skins may have great strength, but they are too few in number to be captured by hordes of orcs.

It wasn't until Edward returned that the Phiskins answered Bion's call to emerge from the nearby mountains and forests to learn more powerful skills from Edward and seek refuge from the Knights of the Demon Hunters.

Now that Bion and his people have found the path of the Light, he has the confidence to come to the aid of Rothlorian with a portion of the Phis, believing that the Phis are no longer a brute force race.

Hardir led his Lorin Elven cavalry and Bion's Witcher Vanguard battalion south along the west bank of the Anduin River, resting by the river only when he was very tired, and spending the rest of the time on horses or goats.

During these days of rapid marching, Hardir noticed the difference in this group of demon hunter cavalry. Compared to his elven cavalry, this group of cavalry is more hard-working, and when they are tired from the work of themselves and their mounts, they will release a sacred silver light that washes the whole body of the knights and mounts, as if to dispel fatigue.

Observation over the past few days has confirmed Haldir's suspicion that this sacred silver light must indeed be able to dispel fatigue, otherwise Hardir would not be able to explain the fact that the Demon Hunter Knight, who was wearing plate armor all over, was still able to keep up with the leather armor-clad Lorin Cavalry.

During a night's rest, Hardir finally couldn't help but ask the question.

"That's what the Commander taught us, and she's more than just dispelling fatigue. Bion replied after a moment of silence as he nibbled on a grilled fish.

Halfir pondered in amazement for a moment, glanced at the giant bear in armor on the river beach that was catching fish, and took advantage of the fact that Bion had a little talk, and continued to ask, "Have you all learned this ability?"

"Of course, not only us Skin-Bearers, but all members of the Demon Hunter Knights have this ability. "All those who can't learn have been purged from the ranks of demon hunters, proving that they don't have enough faith to resist evil. ā€

"That's why these dwarves who come with the army rarely quarrel with you Lorin Elves. Bion looked at Hardir and said, "The members of the Demon Hunter Knights will not be affected by other obsessions and hatreds, and the righteousness in their hearts drives them to put aside their prejudices and fight against evil demons with all their might. ā€

"It's really a powerful and magical power. Hardir was in awe, but also ashamed of his prejudices. Just now, he was still thinking about whether to let these dwarves and Phis enter the sacred place of Roslorian. And now, he is thinking about how to properly settle these righteous people who have come from afar.

Seeing Haldir look ashamed, Bion gave a rare smile.

When they first arrived at the Demon Hunter's camp, they almost reacted like Hardir, and the ordeal of the Phis made it hard for them to trust others. Dwarves, elves, and humans are mostly no exception, and the habits of each race have caused chaos in the demon hunter camp. However, when they learned the Way of Light and purged some of them, their perception began to change and they became more tolerant and friendly.

Archinstructor Aragorn, with his personal and Light charisma, taught this skill to everyone well, giving the Knights of the Demon Hunter an unparalleled cohesion.

It was under this cohesion that the Demon Hunter Fortress was able to be established so quickly and become a force to be reckoned with in the middle of Middle-earth.

At this time, a huge wave suddenly surged over the Anduin River, and the rushing water almost rushed up to the riverbed, submerging both banks. In the midst of this wave, there were also many orc corpses and rudimentary raft remains.

Hardir and Bion stood up at the same time and immediately ordered the cavalry to stay away from the river beach.

"The orc attack has begun! It's a spell from Lady Galadriel!" Haldir said with a solemn expression as he looked at the rushing waves.

Bion didn't speak, but jumped directly onto the horse.

Haldir gave the taciturn commander a nod and ordered the whole army to move on.

............

Three days later, at noon, when Bion and Hardir dragged their tired bodies to Roslorian, they saw a fierce battle.

A large number of orcs gathered on the east bank of the Anduin River, constantly cutting down trees to make rudimentary rafts and force them across the river. Waves of black arrows and huge stones were thrown from the east bank, covering the orcs crossing the river. There are also huge trolls and trolls, stepping directly on the bottom of the river, and some orc archers crawling on their backs, directly carrying out armed swimming.

At this time, the Lorin Elven Army had lost control of the west bank of the Anduin River, and retreated to the edge of the beautiful golden forest, where war and death had begun to erode the forest.

The Orc army was so numerous that the long banks of the Anduin River could be used as a place for them to cross the river, but the Lorin Elves did not have enough soldiers to stop the attacks of these Orcs upstream and downstream, so they could only rely on the Golden Grove of Roslorian to resist.

In the distance, Heyerdir relied on the elven eyesight to see Calebon and Galadriel in the elven army. Armed with a sword and riding a giant horned reindeer, Kellendron fought his way to the front, while Galadriel was pale and protected by elven soldiers, raising his hands and chanting.

"Knights of the Demon Hunters!" Charge, for justice!" While Haldir was still in a state of panic, Bion jumped off his horse and roared.

With his roar, his body began to change, and in the blink of an eye he became a giant bear in plate armor - the plate armor of the Phi Men was cleverly designed by the dwarven craftsmen to prevent them from changing shapes.

The earth began to rumble, and the orcs, who had just finished crossing the river and were about to start killing, were surprised to see a group of giant bears in glittering silver armor rushing towards the east bank of the upper reaches of the river!

Behind the bear, there was a group of dwarven cavalry riding goats and also shining silver, and at the back was a group of elven cavalry.

"Elven warriors, cover our allies!" Hardir reacted quickly, and his mood began to perk as he looked at the indomitable Giant Bear Forward. With his order, a rain of arrows came from behind, covering the half-orcs across the river first, and was immediately shot down.

Facing the fierce Giant Bear Forward, the Half-Orc Sword and Shield Men formed a shield formation in a panic, preparing to meet the sudden impact of the Giant Bear.

However, the shield array had no effect on the giant bears, who were large in size, wearing plate armor and protected by holy light. They rushed straight into the hard shield and the spears that were exposed from it.

The cracking of shields, the breaking of spears and axes, the roar of the giant bear, and the screams of the orcs suddenly became one, and the powerful giant bear vanguard easily broke through the shield formation of the half-orcs and entered the army to slaughter and trample!

Immediately after, the dwarven goat cavalry followed, and the barrage of standard spears continued to harvest the lives of the orcs. Like a giant silver serpent with thorns, they shook their heads and tails in the midst of the orc army, and the silver spikes on their bodies would continue to burst out, piercing all the orcs who approached.

Galadriel saw the changes coming from afar in the upper reaches of the river and stopped casting spells. Kellerpeng also stopped and looked this way.

"Where are these reinforcements?" asked the Elven King, riding back to his wife's side on a reindeer, looking into the distance.

"The ones who can come to our aid are either from Rivendell or from the Knights of the Demon Hunters. Galadriel had a relieved expression on his face, "I think this should be the army formed by our dragon slayers, those giant bears should be the Skin-Pierced people, and those dwarves should be the Lone Mountain Dwarves who joined the Knights." ā€

"I really didn't expect that we elves would also fight alongside the dwarves one day. "Kellerpeng's heart was also relieved, and with this reinforcement, the orcs would be driven back to Gorgodo.

"More than thirty years ago, woodland elves fought alongside dwarves. It was the battle of the Five Armies that led to the extinction of the orcs. Galadriel's eyes blazed, "We're all wrong, my dear, the orcs are rising too fast again, and perhaps we shouldn't shrink back to Roslorian and watch these evil forces run rampant." ā€

"It turns out that the power of Nanya, the Water Ring, is not enough to make these orcs retreat. ā€

On the east bank of the Anduin River, a figure covered in black armor and a hood appeared in the midst of the army. After he looked at the reinforcements, his eyes in the hood flickered, and he issued a direct order: "Let all those trebuchets turn there! Attack us regardless of the enemy! At the same time, order the trolls and trolls who have come ashore to stop them for me!"
