American TV series: Starting with exploiting young Sheldon

One after another, wave after wave...

Before long, the scene was transformed into a blood and flesh furnace by the strangling vines.

……

"Treebeard, humans are fighting those monsters. Our chance has come." Because he was faster than the other tree people, Quickbranch took the initiative to scout out the movements of the orcs.

Just now, it witnessed Mike summoning vines to strangle the orcs.

Quickly, Kuaizhi realized that this was the opportunity the tree people had been waiting for.

"How many people have come from the human side, and what is the situation now?" As the oldest tree person, Treebeard is essentially the leader of the tree people.

Compared to the younger Shuren Kuaizhi, it takes a longer-term perspective when considering problems.

"Just one, but that human was incredibly strong, killing many monsters with his vines. No one was his match..." Kaige recounted her observations, concluding, "Let's make our move! If we miss this opportunity, the Fangon Forest might truly be beyond saving!"

Just as Quickbranch said, at the speed at which the Orcs cut down trees, it won't be long before the Fangon Forest is flattened.

When that time comes, even without human help, the tree people will ultimately choose to launch a death charge against the orc army.

Now that they have a powerful ally, the situation is already very good for the familiar race.

Shu Hu turned to look at the tribesmen around him and found that everyone had a hopeful look on their faces, clearly having been persuaded by Kuai Zhi.

"In that case..." Treebeard said in a deep voice, "All Tree People, move out!!!"

Treebeard's hatred for the Orcs was no less than that for his people.

Under his leadership, the tree people marched out of the depths of the forest and headed towards the battlefield.

……

Chapter 639 Wizard Tower

Just as Mike was using his vines to wipe out most of the Orcs, a horn suddenly sounded from behind, and hundreds of tall Treants charged toward the battlefield.

Although they move relatively slowly, they are not slow runners because of their height and long legs.

In addition, the tree-people's physique makes them impervious to pain and incredibly strong.

So after charging into the battlefield, the treants, relying on their powerful physique, could knock away several strong orcs with each sweeping attack.

On the Orcs' side, although Mike had killed many of them, there were still thousands of Orcs who had survived.

With their sharp blades and giant axes, these thousands of powerful orcs could still fight against the Treants.

Having already been terrified by Mike's harsh methods, their rational side finally prevailed after seeing hundreds of Treants join the battle.

In fact, although Orcs are called monsters, they also bleed and feel fear.

Therefore, the orc army's defeat was already inevitable when the first orc, unable to withstand the pressure, began to flee.

"Kill them all!!! Kill all those monsters!"

Seeing the orc army gradually collapse, the tall, thin treant Quickbranch, who was faster, used his speed advantage to catch up with a few slower orcs. After sweeping them down and smashing their heads with his branch arms, he called on his people to continue the pursuit.

The Treefolk had long harbored resentment towards the Orcs for their previous actions, and now that they finally had a chance to strike back when the Orcs were down, they naturally wouldn't let it go.

So, inspired by the treant Quickbranch, the treants strode after the scattered orcs, heading towards Isengard Highlands.

"Respected human warrior, thank you for helping us drive away those monsters..." After the Treants went to chase the Orcs, their leader, Treebeard, approached Mike. After expressing his gratitude, he continued, "In the tower of Isengard, there still lives a powerful wizard, and those monsters were his creation. Your previous actions undoubtedly disrupted his plans, so please be especially careful."

Over countless years, the wisdom of the leaders of Shuren has been refined.

This made Treebeard realize that the Orcish calamity was just an appetizer; the real danger lay with the wizard hiding in the Tower of Isengard.

[Natural Energy +99w]...

Unsurprisingly, Mike obtained many attribute orbs and energy orbs from the Tree Leader.

Moreover, he had previously obtained many orbs of light from other tree beings.

With the addition of the fear energy from the Orc army, Mike has made some progress this time.

Of course, for him who has now been promoted to the Genesis level and whose energy bars are calculated in hundreds of millions, this is just a drop in the ocean.

Something is better than nothing.

"Don't worry, I'll handle the wizards on Isengard. You don't need to worry." After sorting through the spoils, Mike reassured the treant leader.

With Mike's intelligence, it wasn't hard to see that while the tree-man leader's decision to stay was out of gratitude, it might also be a test.

After all, the Treants could deal with the fleeing Orcs, but they had no chance against the mysterious and powerful white-robed wizard Saruman.

Therefore, whether the crisis in Fargon Forest can be completely resolved ultimately depends on Mike's decision.

"Thank you again, human hero. You will always be a friend of our tree people~" Seeing Mike take on the responsibility, Treebeard's gratitude became much more sincere.

"No need to thank me, it's all I should do, and you've already paid me." Mike nodded slightly to the treant leader before taking flight and heading towards the tower on Isengard Hill.

Isengard Tower was a wizarding tower that Saruman built specifically for himself, where he could wield even greater power.

At that moment, at the top of the spiral-shaped wizard tower, the white-robed wizard Saruman, who was studying the distribution map of the Middle-earth continent, suddenly got up and walked to the window on a whim.

Then we saw the mighty orc army being chased by the Treefolk.

"Useless trash!" Saruman cursed angrily, then quickly regained his composure and turned to say, "What brings you to Isengard? You're not just here to vent your anger on behalf of the Ents, are you?"

“Of course I’m not that bored…” Mike sat down in the spot where Saruman had been, glanced at the map of Middle-earth’s power distribution on the stone table, and suddenly said, “I must say, your wizard tower is quite interesting.”

With Mike's current strength, let alone just being in the same room as Saruman, even if he wanted to walk behind Saruman, Saruman wouldn't be able to find him.

But as soon as he appeared, Saruman sensed his arrival.

It can only be said that this wizard tower has indeed greatly enhanced Saruman's power.

Moreover, although the base of this tower is a spiral structure, the platform at the top is built to be exceptionally luxurious, complete with tables, chairs, benches, a study, a lounge, and so on.

It's easy to see that Saruman poured a lot of effort into this wizard's tower.

"It's just some simple setup, nothing to mention~" Saruman said, but seeing someone appreciating his masterpiece, he couldn't help but show a hint of pride on his face.

From a magical perspective, this wizard's tower is another masterpiece by Saruman in recent decades.

Here, his magical abilities will be greatly amplified.

Even if Sauron, the Demon Lord, came here, Saruman felt he had a fighting chance.

With this confidence, Saruman was naturally not afraid of Mike making any underhanded moves.

He then calmly poured himself and Mike a cup of black tea before continuing, "You should have realized that I'm now cooperating with the dark forces. So what do you plan to do? Stop me... or join us?"

Although Saruman had suffered several defeats at Mike's hands, and Sauron had warned him not to provoke Mike.

But now, on his home turf, Saruman, who is fully confident in his abilities, still chose to confront Mike.

"What do you mean?" Seeing that the other party seemed fearless, Mike also walked to the window and glanced at the scene below where the Orcs were being chased by the Treants and were crying for their mothers. For a moment, he was not in a hurry.

Saruman naturally saw the scene below as well, but as long as there were the original genes of the Orcs and the mines for breeding Orcs, there would be as many Orc armies as needed.

Therefore, Saruman didn't care much about what was happening below the wizard's tower.

Or rather, his main focus right now is on how to win over Mike.

If he could bring this powerful human into his camp, he would have the confidence to further contend with the Demon Lord Sauron.

"Who defines light and darkness? Therefore, what matters is not the process but the result..." Saruman recounted his plan.

The gist is that the reason why Middle-earth has been plagued by constant warfare is because the forces of darkness and the forces of good coexist.

Therefore, as long as one side completely disappears, the Middle-earth will be able to usher in peace.

As for which side to eliminate, Saruman did not care.

Therefore, he joined Sauron's camp, who possessed immortality.

"Join me! If we join forces and cooperate with the Dark Lord, Middle-earth will soon be at peace. After that, we will govern Middle-earth together!" To make his argument more convincing, Saruman even resorted to magic.

This gave him a seductive voice that echoed like a gentle breeze at the top of the tower.

Saruman had traveled through Middle-earth for many years and was known for his wisdom and political maneuvering.

He traveled between Gondor and Rohan, uniting human forces to resist the invasion of dark forces.

Perhaps it was the fear and expulsion of the Regent of Gondor that disheartened him, or perhaps it was the invincible nature of Sauron that drove him to despair.

Of course, it's also possible that he was dissatisfied because after years of hard work, he was easily overtaken by Gandalf the Grey in the Maiar rankings.

In short, after much consideration, he went astray.

Now, his wisdom is being used to help Sauron create the Orcs, while his political maneuvering skills are being used to lobby Mike.

“What if I say no?” Mike picked at his ear, smiling as he refused.

Leaving aside Ilúvatar in Middle-earth, would they just stand by and watch Middle-earth be taken over by the forces of darkness?

After the dark forces conquered Middle-earth, how could they possibly allow peace to exist there?

If Saruman possessed normal cognitive abilities, he couldn't possibly be unaware of this. His current paranoid state suggests he has likely been driven mad.

Working with a madman, Mike is clearly not that carefree.

"It's not a question of whether you want to or not, but whether you can leave here." After being rejected, Saruman finally bared his fangs.

With a wave of his wand, he summoned countless black wisps that enveloped the room.

"This will be your cage, until you come to your senses..." Saruman continued, a hint of madness in his eyes, "Now, to give you a proper understanding of my power, I'm going to teach you a lesson first."

Now that the two have fallen out, Saruman, who had suffered several setbacks at Mike's hands, naturally wanted to recoup some of his losses now that everything was under his control.

After saying that, he raised his wand again, gathered magic, and pointed it at Mike.

With the Wizard Tower's enhancement, the powerful magic erupted, overturning all the tables, chairs, and benches along the way.

However, when this immense pressure reached Mike, it was immediately neutralized by the passive protective power of the Light Armor.

As for Mike himself, he returned to the stone table and did not do anything else.

But that leisurely demeanor was nothing short of the best mockery of Saruman.

"How is this possible? What did you do??..." Despite exerting all his strength, he only broke through the opponent's defenses more and more, so Saruman's defenses were breached.

He can accept that the other party is slightly stronger than him, but not to this extent.

"Didn't you see? I haven't done anything." Mike still had a slight smile on his face.

However, it was precisely because he did nothing that Saruman was able to break through the defenses.

Compared to Mike's composure, Saruman, who had previously appeared to be in complete control, undoubtedly became the Joker.

……

Meanwhile, on the plains below the Wizard's Tower, the Orcs, who had been waiting for Saruman's rescue, were finally wiped out by the Treants in one fell swoop.

Looking at the filth covering the ground and the accumulated animal flesh and blood from the huge ore pit where powerful orcs were raised, the tree people remained silent for a long time.

Just then, the clever young tree-man Quickbranch went to the Isengard Reservoir.

There used to be a river flowing into the Fagun Forest here, called the Aisin River.

However, after Saruman arrived, he cut off the water flow, turning the river into a reservoir to protect the only gap outside the Wizard Tower, which was surrounded by mountains on three sides.

This huge reservoir now provides Kaige with the perfect opportunity to cleanse the filth on the plains.

"Bang~"

The tall, thin Kuai Zhi used all his strength to slam his body hard against the stone wall of the reservoir.

As the stone wall trembled, water droplets began to fall from above.

It's still a long way from smashing through the stone wall.

With its tall and slender physique, even if Kuaizhi crashed into the rock wall and died, it would be difficult for it to break through the solid rock wall.

However, as Kuai Zhi relentlessly rammed into the stone wall time and time again, some of the surrounding tree people soon understood his intention.

"Bang...bang...bang..."

Then, more and more tree people joined in the act of crashing into the stone wall.

After a while, the previously chaotic sounds of impact became more and more orderly.

The Treant race, sharing a common vision, eventually united as one, bringing their strength together.
