The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 973: Fallen Heroic Spirit?

"I knew it! It's still too comfortable!" Doss Anthony shook his head helplessly, patted Kurt who was basking in the sun beside him, and said slowly.

"Let's go! Let's join the war!" Dos Anthony mounted the dragon saddle and glanced at the urgent military information in his hand, allowing it to be shattered by lightning and blown away by the wind.

"Where did the battle report come from?" Kurt asked in a muffled voice.

"Battle report from Lulong Fortress, Lord Windhelm! The orcs are attacking!" Dos Anthony clapped his paws.

"Another half-orc..." Kurt muttered helplessly. In Kurt's eyes, these dirty reptiles were like jumping clowns, constantly refreshing in front of everyone's eyes...

"The kingdom can bear the loss of a frontier territory, and can tolerate the death of a baron, but it cannot accept the fall of a dragon knight!" Dos Anthony shook his head. The kingdom could not bear the sad news of the death of a dragon knight. No matter what, they could ignore others, but Weiss must be rescued!

"I will obey your will!" Kurt lowered his head to Dos Anthony. Although as a member of the Thunder Dragon Clan, he naturally rejected the Demon Dragon Clan, the dragon clan loyal to the contract chose the knight who was loyal to themselves.

"Thanks for your understanding, buddy!" Dos Anthony nodded gratefully. In the entire dragon knight circle of the Kingdom of Lagran, Weiss could be said to be a vaguely isolated existence. Except for Cardo, no dragon liked to be regarded as a traitor to the dragon clan. This rejection from blood relationship made the dragons of other dragon knights vaguely alienated from Weiss's dragon...

"Let's go. As you said, the kingdom cannot afford to lose a dragon rider!" Looking at Dos Anthony quickly climbing onto the dragon saddle, Kurt nodded, and fine electric currents began to flow all over his body.

"Tear!" The blue lightning crossed a thousand meters, and in just a moment Kurt appeared at the end of the lightning! The lightning dragon clan's lightning transformation is a practical magical skill! Using lightning as a carrier, they can teleport to any place where lightning spreads. As a dragon clan that is also famous for its speed, they don't take off like wind dragons, but use lightning to achieve an almost instantaneous teleportation effect.

Kurt flies very fast. When the giant thunder dragon in the sky flies at high speed with the help of lightning, it will emit thunder and lightning like a thunderstorm. If one day when the sky is clear and you see lightning and hear thunder, you might as well look carefully in the sky. It is very likely that it is the movement of the lightning dragon clan...

"Kurt! There's a cumulonimbus cloud above! Let's go up!" Dos Anthony said happily. The lightning from the cumulonimbus cloud can allow the Thunder Dragon to travel through it faster, saving its own dragon power. It can also absorb the power of lightning to recharge itself. It can be said to be the best of both worlds.

"Ang!" Kurt let out a long roar and his figure flashed and turned into lightning and disappeared into the clouds!
……

"Lord Vess, haven't your reinforcements arrived yet?" The King of the Mountain felt bitter. Khamul was Khamul. As the lieutenant of the Witch King of Angmar, his strength was unquestionable! It was a fact that this sixth-level heroic spirit of the Mountain was no match for the sixth-level Ringwraiths... After a few rounds of fighting, the King of the Mountain discovered the huge gap between the two sides! Khamul's strength was not inferior to that of the Knight of Sernar!
"You are very brave, but it ends here!" Khamul's voice was hoarse and low. The nightmare under his crotch snorted and spewed out two streams of faint hellfire. Khamul swung the chain hammer and urged the warhorse to rush up. "Roar!" There seemed to be a demon roaring in the void. A terrifying shadow of the hammer appeared as he swung the chain hammer. A twisted and dark skull face appeared behind him. There seemed to be a faint sound of chains in the void. The King of the Mountain did not dare to be careless and immediately held up the shield. The shield constructed by the power of the soul was still flashing with a faint light. Before the activated shield wrapped himself, the whistling chain hammer smashed the King of the Mountain!
"Bang!" A teeth-grinding cracking sound was heard, and the shield in the hands of the King of the Mountain shattered into pieces, turning into wisps of soul light and reintegrating into his body.

"Clang!" At the critical moment, he successfully pulled out the sword and blocked the heavy hammer. The heavy hammer that was about to hit his face was blocked, but Khamul was not surprised. Instead, he turned his wrist and smashed it down suddenly.

"Shh~" The soul horse of the King of the Mountain neighed for a long time, then was smashed into pieces, turned into a stream of light and reintegrated into the body of the King of the Mountain. The King of the Mountain rolled awkwardly to avoid the chain hammer that swept across again, and appeared behind Khamul. He stood up with a grim expression, holding the Soul Sword in both hands, staring at Khamul's movements.

"Your horse is gone, how long can you struggle?" There was a hint of amusement in Khamur's hoarse voice, like a cat playing with a mouse.

"That dragon knight can't hold on for much longer! The sixth-level of this kingdom left the fortress for some reason, so are you still waiting for the illusory reinforcements?" Khamul's laughter was low and hoarse, and it carried a bewitching power.

"Give up struggling and embrace the darkness! You originally belonged to us... don't you? Lord of the Undead..." Khamul said with a smile. As his voice rang out, dark streams of light quietly climbed up the fighting spirit of the King of the Mountain and merged with it. The King of the Mountain, which was originally burning with green soul flames, gradually turned black.

"Come... join us... the position of the third ring is yours..." Khamul's voice suddenly became ethereal. He put down his weapon and stretched out his hands towards the King of the Mountain. Behind him were endless clouds of war sweeping across the world in bottomless black. He extended an invitation to the King of the Mountain!
The King of the Mountain took two steps forward hesitantly and slowly put down the long sword in his hand. His clear eyes became cloudy, and his originally clear face began to distort and disappear, gradually turning into a skeleton in the black mist. Two soul flames slowly rose in his eye sockets...

"Yes! That's right! We are each other's companions, come! Embrace the darkness! Join Lord Sauron..." Khamul opened his arms, and the boundless dark clouds of war surrounded the King of the Mountain. The green soul of the King of the Mountain burned and bloomed desperately to stop the attachment of darkness, but how could the darkness that was like a thorn in the bone be easily wiped out...

The noble armor began to fall apart, and the long sword in his hand slowly grew a thorn gauntlet. The black Ringwraith plate armor began to piece together and appear on his body. A series of battle flames with evil and dark auras turned into a cloak to wrap him, and the scarlet soul fire trembled and jumped.

Khamul watched all this with satisfaction. This was why he didn't go all out to kill the King of the Mountain! The Ringwraiths were the fallen and transformed existence of the Paladins. Similarly, the Heroic Spirits could also be corrupted into the Ringwraiths. As the third ring was vacant, Khamul would of course find a qualified successor and replacement for the original Sernar!
"Yes! That's right, you will take the ring from Sernar and become the new Lord of the Three Rings! Embrace the darkness! Pledge your loyalty to Lord Sauron!" Khamul's hoarse and shrill laughter echoed in the dark clouds of war.

"Se... Senar?" The king of the mountain, whose thoughts were in chaos, was suddenly startled, and the soul fire in his eyes was extinguished the next second!

I'm back, my friends. I'm back to pay off my debts!
