"It is good to see you, Haldir!"
Aragorn, with an excited heart, walked up to Haldir and bowed, then, while Haldir was returning the bow, he directly pulled Haldir into a hug.
The Elf Haldir was first stunned, then smiled and likewise hugged Aragorn back.
"You have co at just the right ti."
Haldir smiled, then looked at King Théoden and said, "It is our honor to fight alongside humans once again!"
Yang Tao, leaning on the city wall, looked at the Elf archers below, who were lined up like an army, and said to the Dwarf warrior Gimli beside him, "Elves speak so elegantly."
Gimli snorted and said, "Those long-ears don't get tired, but I get tired just listening to them."
"Haha, that's called elegance. You should also go put on your equipnt, the enemy might arrive at any mont."
When Gimli saw that the Elves had sent reinforcents, his heart was very conflicted; he didn't understand why the Dwarves hadn't sent anyone.
With a helpless mind, he went down from the city wall.
Deep night.
Firelight had already appeared on the distant horizon; it was Saruman's army, the Uruk-hai legions, arriving with torches.
The guard responsible for watching, seeing this situation, shouted into the fortress, "The enemy is here!"
As the leader of Hornburg, Théoden's expression subtly changed, and he imdiately said, "Everyone, prepare yourselves."
The Elf Haldir also issued an order, telling all Elf archers to ascend the city wall.
For a mont, the entire fortress 'ca alive,' everyone carrying their weapons ascended the city wall, staring intently at Saruman's army approaching from afar.
Aragorn, who had ascended the city wall, saw Éowyn's expression change slightly and said, "Éowyn, you should quickly return to the caves; it's too dangerous here."
Éowyn's face showed a confident smile as she looked at the handso Aragorn and said, "God's gaze is upon . Aragorn, I will let you know that won can also beco great warriors!"
"Ahem, I'd like to emphasize that she's a priest…"
Éowyn: "…"
"However, it's normal for a priest to know so blade techniques, after all, Gandalf truly exists in this world."
Having often joked about Gandalf, the lee mage, Yang Tao could finally see him in person this ti.
Éowyn didn't understand why Yang Tao suddenly brought up Gandalf, but she still respectfully nodded.
"Damn it, why are these arrow slits built so high?"
The fully armored Dwarf Gimli couldn't see the situation outside and could only complain helplessly, then looked at Aragorn and said, "Friend, I hope your luck of surviving great disasters can get you through tonight."
Perhaps sensing the great battle about to happen here, a large amount of dark clouds drifted across the originally clear sky.
Bright lightning pierced the dim sky, also illuminating the dense army of Uruk-hai in the distance.
The handso Légolas looked at the elite army and said to Aragorn beside him, "Your friends will fight alongside you, Aragorn."
Gimli, the master of complaints, stood behind the arrow slit and said, "I hope they can also make it through tonight."
Boom.
Raindrops, carrying a hint of coolness, fell on so soldiers' helts and bodies, making crisp sounds. All the warriors gripped the weapons in their hands, showing their determination to face death without fear.
Aragorn walked behind the Elves, using the Elvish language to boost their morale: "Children of One, do not hold back, for they will not hold back either!"
All the Elves showed no expression on their faces, their eyes calmly looking at the Uruk-hai army that was so close. They had experienced countless wars, and life and death had long been viewed lightly.
A loud roar ca from within the Uruk-hai below the city wall, and they stopped less than a hundred ters from the wall.
"What's the situation outside now?"
Gimli heard the footsteps stopping outside and couldn't help but ask. Yang Tao smiled and reached out to lift Gimli up, placing a round stone under his feet.
"Now you can see."
"Yang Tao, you are being too disrespectful to ."
"Haha, this is just the beginning!"
At this mont, the Orc soldiers below the city wall, holding spears several ters long, began to build up the atmosphere, gripping their spears tightly and stomping them heavily on the ground.
The sound gradually beca uniform, like war drums beating in everyone's hearts.
Boom… Boom… Boom…
Everyone on the city wall also drew their longbows, aiming at the Orcs below.
Yang Tao took out a golden Totem of Undying from his backpack and handed them to Éowyn beside him, smiling as he said, "Jump down, I want to see your performance."
Gimli, beside him: "???"
He suspected whether he had misheard, and not just him, several people around Yang Tao all looked over.
But Éowyn didn't hesitate at all. She took the items Yang Tao handed her, tucked them into her leather armor, and respectfully bowed to Yang Tao, saying, "I will display the power you have bestowed."
After speaking, she gripped the sword in her hand and jumped onto the arrow slit of the city wall.
Yang Tao, seeing this, reminded her, "Feel the weapon in your hand carefully, it can give you great help."
Aragorn, also standing on the city wall, imdiately reached out and shouted, "Éowyn, don't…"
But it was too late. Éowyn leaped from the city wall, then drew the Sange from her hand and lightly swung it, landing very gracefully on the ground.
For a mont, everyone, whether on the city wall or the Uruk-hai outside the city, was stunned.
Aragorn grabbed Yang Tao's collar and roared angrily, "What did you do to Éowyn? She's just a girl who knows nothing!"
"Her? Heh heh, she is the Shieldmaiden of Rohan, Aragorn, you are too arrogant."
Aragorn wanted to say sothing more, but then exclamations rang out around him. Gimli's loud voice shouted, "My heavens, how is this possible!!!"
After Éowyn jumped down, she rushed towards the Uruk-hai army without any hesitation. The Uruk-hai didn't react at all, thinking soone would just rush over to die like that.
By the ti they ca to their senses, Éowyn had already charged into their formation. The several-ter-long siege spears seed so powerless once the enemy got close.
The Sange blade emitted a cold light.
Body after body fell to the ground.
Éowyn's older brother, Éor, went from being furious to dumbfounded, looking in disbelief at his sister below, who seed possessed by a God of Combat.
Théoden imdiately shouted, "Avoid Éowyn! Fire arrows!!"
If not now, then when!
No matter what Éowyn had experienced, now was the best opportunity.
At this mont, the Elf archers displayed their exquisite archery skills. Arrows accurately pierced the gaps in the enemy's armor, hitting the Uruk-hai.
Gimli jumped down from the round stone, directly pushed aside the stunned Aragorn, and said, "Yang Tao, we are friends. I am also willing to believe in you, so bestow power upon too!"
"Gimli, power cos with a price. If I bestow power upon you, from now on you will spread my na along with Éowyn…"
"Don't worry, when I go to the pub to drink, I will definitely spread your na."
Yang Tao glanced at the clever little fellow and smiled, "That works too."
He reached out and placed his hand on Gimli's body, infusing him with the power of faith.
Priest · Gimli
Health 800 / 800
A surge of vigorous power erged from his body, and so knowledge also appeared in his mind.
When Gimli looked at Yang Tao again, his eyes already held reverence.
"My heavens, I never thought you were truly a god, but you are quite boring…"
Even with the blessing of faith, Gimli's sharp tongue hadn't changed, but this also proved that when Gimli said these things, he had no ill intentions whatsoever.
Yang Tao chuckled and took out his tinkers construct cobalt axe, which he had used for chopping trees earlier, from his backpack and put it into Gimli's hand, then grabbed his armor and said, "We'll discuss whether I'm boring or not later."
"Get ready, I'm going to throw you!"
