The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"Tree man?"

"That's right." Hisalie crossed her arms across her chest: "Look around you, the tree people are discussing how to treat these orcs who may come in."

Hearing this, the two hobbits raised their heads and looked to the sky.

They suddenly discovered that, in fact, this open space was not formed naturally. It's because the nearby trees have moved to another place. The swaying of the trees is not due to the wind. It is just that the trees are moving their bodies. Among the cracks and folds of the trunk, you can see a pair of eyes that are blocked by branches and leaves.

"The legend of the tree man is true!"

"Yes, and you better be quiet, they don't like noise and impatient." Xisali shrugged: "Let's go, I will take you to a place where you can drink. But remember, this forest is not You can drink all the water. I also have some fruits and bread here. It looks like you are also very hungry, right?"

The two hobbits nodded.

"Are they going to go to war?" Pipin asked.

"They..." Xisali hesitated: "Should be discussing how to participate in the war." Druid paused: "Well, maybe they are greeting each other and greeting each other. They seem to rarely get together like this. Chance to be together."

Chapter 2438: Surrounding Isinger

When the sun rose from the east and shone on Isengard's dark spire, an army had appeared on the plain outside the fortress wall.

The hussars composed of six thousand fighters were divided into three camps. The team led by King Haydon camped in the front line, the army led by Prince Hayud was on the left flank, and Iomo's army was on the right flank.

"Father!"

Siyud opened his arms and greeted the king who was walking steadily. He and Hidden hugged each other and patted each other on the back: "It's great to see that you are safe."

The king looked at his son up and down. After Zelin left, Siyud led the army to fight with the orcs of Saruman for a few times. There are still some dead orcs scattered along the river Eisen, but one of them was also tainted. The wreckage of a burnt siege hammer. The corpses of some wolves and wolf knights fell nearby, their bodies full of javelins.

"You did a great job, my boy." Xiu Dun said with satisfaction: "Now you are no longer alone, Rohan will go all out."

Siyud greeted everyone in his camp and explained the recent battle to them.

Saruman kept sending orcs to harass the camp during the night, but he did not send more troops to leave Isengard to attack Siyud’s camp on the plains. It seemed that he wanted to rely on this method to anger the Rohan people. , To lure Xiu De to attack Isinger. After Iomo’s reinforcements arrived, Siud tried to use the siege weapon he had made to approach the city wall after repelling an enemy's harassment, but he failed. Saruman laid ambush many archers on the wall, causing a lot of losses to the Rohan people.

Only when the Rohan people retreated, he sent troops to chase him down, but was intercepted by the archers waiting in the camp. After losing many wolf knights and strong orcs, the orcs had to retreat.

Zelin did not participate in the discussion about the deployment of the war. He is not from Rohan and has never been with the soldiers here. In this regard, these generals have more say. He does not want to make them do something because of his own suggestions. Wrong decision.

Altariel also stayed outside the tent.

"You heard their discussion." The wind on the prairie blew the elf ranger's blond hair hanging on her shoulders, and she seemed to have forgotten her previous unhappiness: "They lack siege weapons, and they need to recreate siege hammers and ladders. Without the ladder and siege tower, Rohan soldiers could not ride up the wall on horseback."

"I heard." Zelin nodded: "What are you thinking?"

"You have a kind of flame that can make an explosion, and that kind of flame has a strong impact." The ranger stretched out a finger: "I don't like this kind of flame that brings destruction, but if it can be used on traitors, I I think this is acceptable. I have seen you use it to blow up the scaffolding next to the dam. What if there are more? You have time now. The speed of creating explosive flames is much faster than the speed of building siege equipment. Since there is no Way to draw Saruman out of the tower, why not blow up the stone wall he relied on?"

Zelin took a deep breath. He again thought that he was right not to participate in the discussion: "This is impossible. First of all, all the materials I brought were made into bombs and piled on the city wall. It was impossible to blow the city wall down. It will blow the city wall black. You and I know that Isengard’s city wall is more than ten meters high and wide enough to allow three orc soldiers to walk side by side. If such a city wall can be blown down by just throwing a dozen bombs in the past, I I’ve already worked on the dam. The dam is much more fragile than Isinger’s walls."

The elf ranger sighed. She turned her gaze to Isinger again, with her arms on her knees, her hands with emerald green fingerless gloves swaying gently: "Do you have other ways? You must have many magical ways to destroy the city walls." ."

"Of course there is, but if you want to do this, it will take about half a year here. The Luohan people have already eaten their horses for half a year."

Zelin snorted softly. In the Battle of Sintra ten years ago, the imperial sorcerers used a spell to instantly turn Sintra's unprotected outer wall into sand. The city that was expected to last for at least a month fell overnight. Isinger's scale is far inferior to Sintra. As long as he has time to prepare, Francesca can turn Isinger's walls into gravel. But when the messenger arrived at Gushan, after being informed by Altea, and when Enid rushed over, it was estimated that the food in the whole country of Rohan would not be enough to support the consumption of this cavalry corps for half a year of siege.

Zelin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the distance. The weather is fine, and I can directly see Isinger in the distance sitting on the dirt **** of the camp: "So I'm going to try, can I get him out."

"How to do it?"

"Supreme Lord of the Rings." Zelin leaned close to Altarel: "Saruman wanted the Supreme Lord of the Rings, and he knew that there was a ring in it, and there was a ring unknown to the world, and this ring It's related to me, it's related to you, it's related to me."

Altariel's eyes became serious, and she stared at Zelin warily: "What do you want to do?"

"Don't be nervous." Zelin waved his hand: "You know, I don't have a ring on my body. That ring should now be safely transported to Mordor."

Zelin was worried about Billbo going to Mordor. Although his appearance and physical condition may be the same as those of the Snitch who fought in Lonely Mountain, Mordor is not like Lonely Mountain after all. It can be said that it is the most dangerous place in this land. However, he is confident in the strength of Gnaiya, Virginia and Frid. He didn't think Mordor could be more dangerous than the cult of the demon **** Mora, and the dragon descendants did return without incident, and defeated the most terrifying enemy in life.

"So..."

"I guess he knows where Sauron's ring is, but he doesn't know the ring of Celebrity." Zelin raised his eyebrows: "He may have given up the idea of ​​finding a second ring, but if we tell He, this ring is still...I think only this ring can lead him out of the tower."

"What are you going to do?"

"Of course I will talk to him tomorrow, negotiate."

Zelin looked around and determined that there were no other Rohan people nearby, he continued: "Tomorrow you don't go with me. You will lie nearby, waiting for the opportunity to break through the door. As long as you can open that door and let Huqi We avoid the city walls, and any place can become a battlefield. We will talk about it later, and I will consider whether there are loopholes in this plan."

Chapter 2439 Seeds of Doubt

On this day, the sun seemed unable to penetrate the dark clouds above Isengard.

Zelin has been to Isinger several times, but every time it seems that it has not been so smooth, and now, he sincerely hopes that this will be the last time.

"A strong orc archer is aiming at your head."

Altarel whispered in the ear of the demon hunter: "He is drawing a bow."

"I saw it too." Zelin blinked: "But the range of the Saruman soldier's bow and arrow should not be that far. It's at least two hundred steps away."

"Is it far?"

"Yes for humans and orcs."

As Zelin got closer and closer to the city wall, he could clearly see the orcs standing between the battlements.

"There are so many orc archers. Although they can do nothing, it shouldn't be difficult to pull the bowstrings apart." The elf ranger looked at the archers who hunched over and hid on the wall with disdain: "Could Saruman? Relying on these half-orcs to fight for the Luo Khanate? He can only hide behind the city wall and shiver, and he will be wiped out on the grassland when he leaves the fortress."

"I don't think it's possible." Zelin shook his head: "Saruman's purpose in rebelling against the White Dao Society is to rule with Sauron in the Middle-earth world, not to bring a group of half-orcs to play forging in Asingri. Games. He must find a way to break the deadlock, and we are going to put it in front of him now."

"Negotiating with orcs and traitors makes me feel sick." Altariel said coldly.

"Then bear with it for a while, go back and vomit again."

When the horses were only 30 meters away from the city wall, a strong dark-skinned orc stuck out his head from behind the battlements.

"Stop, or I will shoot you to death!"

"Let your master come out." Zelin raised his head: "I have something very important to discuss with your master, and Saruman will come out to see me immediately."

"The master won't see you." The strong orc's shoulders rise and fall with heavy breathing: "Unless you are here to surrender!"

"Go to your master, I'm not in the mood to waste time with you and nonsense." Zelin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Tell Saruman that there is a wizard from the north and an elf ranger who want to see him. This is the only one he survived. Chance, otherwise he and his Isengard will be destroyed in the flames of war."

The strong orc stared at the demon hunter for a few seconds before disappearing behind the battlements.

Zelin waited, and the horses under him paced back and forth restlessly. The orcs hiding on the city wall rushed to the edge, poking out their heads to look at the two people who appeared at the gate of the city. Just like Altariel's aversion to orcs, Zelin also saw disgust and anger in the eyes of these orcs.

In the camp at the mouth of the Aisen River, Luohan soldiers also walked behind the wooden fence and the horse-riding pile, looking at the figures in the distance. All Rohan soldiers are already equipped, they are ordered, and the battle may break out at any time.
