Chapter 78 Gandalf's Anxiety
Tanes felt mentally exhausted, and his brain felt a noticeable tingling due to the almost dry state of magic power, so he quickly terminated the spell in his hand.

He put down his staff and scratched the back of his head to ease the pain.

The reason why Azrael's first comet could last for nearly half a minute was because the elixir he drank from the Holy Grail bottle was mixed with [Blue Secret Dew Drops].

This dewdrop allows Tanes to cast spells within 15 seconds without consuming any of his own magic points.

The second comet, Azrael, was designed to consume Tanes's own magic power, so it ended quickly.

But such intense consumption of magic power also allowed Tanes to achieve great results.

Whether it was the Warg scouts or the Orc Warg riders in the rear, more than 70% of them died at his hands.

While Oak was still not able to react and was frightened by his spell, Tanes quickly took out the Blue Dew Drop Holy Grail Bottle from his space backpack.

He drank two sips of the liquid in the dew drop bottle in succession. The cool but slightly spicy liquid poured into his throat, quickly replenishing his exhausted magic power, and his headache was relieved a lot.

Tanes put away the Blue Dew Drop Holy Grail, which still had room for three more sips, and changed the Azraelite stone crown on his head back to the White Wolf War Ghost's helmet, and the staff in his hand returned to the giant sword.

After a brief panic, the Orcs... they actually ran away, in front of Tanes' surprised eyes.

"It's, it's the wizard in wolf armor! It's [Okexion]! It's here!"

They ran and shouted in panic.

what?
Tanes was stunned for a moment, but having experienced the large-scale night raid by the Orcs, he immediately reacted.

Could it be that they had just killed the captain of this Orc army? That would be quite lucky.

Tanes thought so in his heart. He originally thought that the captains of the Oaks would hide behind the main force out of fear of death and would not come out until they were sure of victory.

He had not forgotten to take out the flexible collector made for him by Teacher Selian, and absorb the souls of the dead orcs and wargs.

After this expedition is over, the golden tree will definitely grow much faster.

At this moment, the battle cry of Thorin and others came from behind Tanes.

The dwarves held their weapons high and took steps on their short, sturdy legs, running no slower than the fleeing Orcs.

The Orcish wolf riders, unaware of the truth, saw a large group of dwarves (actually less than ten in number) rushing out with ferocious looks, and thought they were ambushed. They ran away even faster, wishing their wolves would grow two more legs.

Some orcs were initially puzzled by the rushing dwarves, because there were so few of them, and they thought they were just bluffing.

But when the people of David's village rushed out with hunting bows and farm tools, the suspicious Orcs gave up hope and fled on their wolves.

It was during this process that Aegon shot down three slower Orcs. The pressure brought by the archer made it easier for the Orcs to escape.

Thorin did not follow the dwarves in chasing the fleeing Orcs, but stopped beside Tanis and looked at him with some surprise in his gray-blue eyes.

Tanes touched his visor and asked curiously, "What's wrong, Thorin?" Thorin's Adam's apple rolled a few times and said, "I didn't expect you to use such a powerful spell. The strength of wizards is beyond my imagination."

Then Thorin's expression relaxed and he smiled, "But this also means that our chances of defeating that evil dragon are better."

Then several footsteps were heard, Millicent and Bernard came over, and then Gandalf came in a hurry.

"Millicent and I just went to other directions of the village to check, worried that Orcs might attack the village from those locations. But fortunately, they seem to be planning to attack only from the west." Bernard saw Tanes's gaze and explained first.

Millicent nodded, concern visible in her golden eyes, and she asked softly, "Are you hurt anywhere?"

Gandalf looked Tanis up and down with a wonderful expression, and answered loudly for Tanis, "Injured? No, I think the only one in Middle-earth who can hurt him now is the dragon in the Lonely Mountain. These little Orcs and Wargs want to hurt Tanis, unless he himself doesn't want to be on guard."

Tanis looked at Gandalf with a strange look when he suddenly shouted loudly, because it was the first time he saw Gandalf shouting so loudly, even louder than the dwarves.

Gandalf hurried to Tanis, raised his old hand, grabbed Tanis' arm and pulled him aside.

"You..." Gandalf looked at Tanis and wanted to say something angrily, but when he saw Tanis' puzzled face, he swallowed his words back.

Tanis looked at Gandalf, and his eyes seemed to say: How can you use such powerful spells at will?
However, Gandalf seemed to realize why Tanis was able to use this spell. He finally sighed and said, "I know you have an extraordinary background, Tanis. Since you are allowed to use it, it would be very long-winded for me to say more. But I still want to say that I hope you will try not to use this dangerous spell against friendly factions, and try not to cause indelible effects on the ground."

Tanis nodded. "I understand that, Gandalf. Personally, I really don't like the idea of ​​a beautiful scenery being transformed into a corrupted land by some strange spell."

The attack by the Pale Orcs on Thorin and Tanes ended with less than 20% of the Orc riders escaping. If the Orc captain Yazneg, who died in the comet Yazler, knew about the heavy casualties, he would probably be glad that he died in such a battle with such a huge disparity in strength.

Otherwise, even if he led the team back, he would definitely be thrown into the wargs by Azog.

After the dwarves returned from hunting the orcs, the old hunter came with his guards to thank Tanes very respectfully.

While the two groups were greeting each other, Gandalf left them and found a few relatively intact bodies of Orcs and Wargs to examine.

The more Gandalf examined the crude armour which the dead Orcs wore, the more grave his expression grew.

He even sat on the body of a wolf without any disgust, took out his pipe, lit the tobacco, and started puffing away.

Tanes noticed Gandalf's look, declined the old hunter's invitation, pulled Benar over and asked him to chat with the villagers, while he walked to Gandalf's side.

"What's the matter, Gandalf? Why do you look like you're thinking about something important again?" Tanis asked.

Gandalf exhaled a puff of smoke and said in a low voice, "Because I have indeed discovered something very remarkable, Tanis. These attacking Orcs are not the Orcs who sneaked into the west to plunder. Look at their clothing, Tanis. Although they are not as good as the army in your territory, these Orcs are already the elite soldiers who have received special training among them."

Tanis tilted his head, caught the white light from Gandalf's staff, and looked at the orc corpse on the ground.

 Just 2000 words today, and make up for it tomorrow.

  I'm not feeling well, so I can only write this much for now. Sorry.
