Chapter 276: The Lord of the Rings Total War (1)

On December 28, 3018 of the Third Age of Middle-earth, on the third day after the departure of the Lord of the Rings expedition from Rivendell, our omnipotent little Annie and the two hundred dwarf goats employed by her The knights soon came and stood in line outside the closed gate of Bray Town.
You're not mistaken, it's here. Two months ago, Annie killed the few ring spirit black knights who made her sleep in the town two months ago! Then, until now, in this small town, it seems that her deeds are still circulating?
And now, she was deeply impressed by the small town she saw when she first came to Middle-earth, and once again led her dwarf mercenaries back here!
This is the town of Bray that owns the Prancing Horse Inn!
It's just that the people inside don't seem to be too bad. Welcome to the returning little witch? Looking at the men on the city wall holding various weapons, like the mature men facing the enemy, Annie probably knows the attitude of the opponent.
But she did not take it too seriously, because this time, she intends to forcibly take down this small town as her base. No matter what, she will take it down. It’s the best if you can talk about it. If you can’t... then grab it. ! !
Anyway, when she read the Chronicles of Middle-earth in Rivendell, she knew clearly: Now, the entire northwestern part of Middle-earth was originally the original territory of the Kingdom of Arno. But now, the Kingdom of Jarno has been perished for a long time, and now there are only a group of so-called Iriad freedmen and some Dundan people or other northern residents!
These people, it is said that all the lords are doing their own affairs, it is just a mess of sand, it is not enough! As for the hobbits...well, those like the five scumbags, Annie didn't pay attention to them at all.
So, Anne felt that since this is a land of no owner, then, in order to resist the evil Mordor alliance, in order to maintain world peace, in order to bathe the people of Middle-earth under the banner of her unity and love. , It is necessary for her to gather them all into her own new kingdom!
Only by concentrating these manpower, material resources, and financial resources, can she be able to play happily in this world?
"Let’s say yes, Lord Anne Witch! Our dwarves are only hired to work for you, not to fight for you..."
Their dwarves are all the best craftsmen, and at the same time the best warriors. No one can question this!
And if the target of the battle is against the half-orcs, the evil fog mountain goblins, or other allied forces of Mordor, Groyin will definitely not say anything, and greet his copy guys and charge up to fight!
But now it's different. Here, the town of Bray of humans is the territory of the freemen of Iliad, and it is the traditional territory of the kingdom of Arno, not the evil allies of Mordor!
"So you must not complain. Today, here in Bray Town, our dwarves will never help you attack this cloth human territory, let alone make enemies for you and the free people of Eliyad! After all, they They are all the people of the former Kingdom of Arno. If we fight, it will make our dwarves' situation embarrassing!"
Although this matter has been said long ago, this time the action of taking Bray Town, their dwarves just watched and never participated!
But when things came to an end, Groyin, the old dwarf, turned his head again to emphasize again to the little witch who was riding a white pony beside him. No matter how high the reward is, their dwarves are unwilling to be dragged by this little witch into battles or other disputes with the northern humans.
"Beard, you are really annoying! I never said that you would help me fight!"
"As long as you are ready, you can start producing those weapons for me tomorrow, and you don't need to worry about other things!"
Looking into the distance, the thicker and heavier new log gate that was originally made after being hit by the ring spirits, Annie curled her lips indifferently.
If she feels the need, like the kind of broken wooden door and this small town, she may only need to throw a few fireballs in to easily burn this small town of Bray? Once Annie is mad, that kind of terrifying magical destructive power is definitely more than a hundred ancient dragon Smaug!
Of course, the humans here didn't offend Annie. She definitely wouldn't do such a frantic thing, and she didn't bother to do it.
"Then how are you going to take this town of Bray?"
"Don't blame me for not reminding you: this small town is still a big town with a population of about 4,000. The militiamen and the temporarily armed strong men are at least several hundred people! You are planning to kill them all. Light?"
"If you really want to do that, you will definitely not be able to rule here in the end..."
Groyin still felt that this little girl wizard's whimsical desire to directly rule such a large town was a bit taken for granted.
Those noble lords or lords inside, certainly won't give up their rights easily! And if you use absolute force to forcibly strike down, and rely on violence to sustain it, it obviously won't last long! As a lord, if you are too tyrannical, the people in this small town will be able to run away in less than ten days and a half!
So he thinks it’s better to follow what he suggested while on the road: spend money to buy a territory, then build a fort, and then use favorable terms to recruit refugees or simply spend money to hire people. In that case, maybe it’s better than attacking directly. How reliable is a town?
"People had a better and simpler way! But, hey..."
Annie remembered the other worlds she had visited before, and several times she used contracts to solve them directly, which was simple and easy! Originally, she also thought about going in and directly grabbing the mayor of Bray Town and stamping it.
However, after thinking about it, she felt that in the current Middle-earth world, she couldn't use that trick anymore...
One reason is: she had already agreed with the bad old man Gandalf before that she could not and would not use magic casually. It hasn’t been long before, so she can’t break the contract soon!
Another one is: in this world, there are a lot of gods! If you use this kind of contract to control others casually, then, when people think that you have violated the rules of the game, and become angry, they will take a countermeasure. Then she has worked so hard to put up the air. Will it all collapse in an instant?
So, this time, she needs to change to a more troublesome method, but she won't be so provocative, and will not violate the rules of the game of the native gods?
"Hey! I'm still not telling you this! Ofina? Hurry up, come up, the next thing is up to you, don't let me down!"
After talking to Groyin, the old dwarf who was next to her, Annie beckoned directly at the bottom of the hillside, a figure who had been on standby.
At this time, it was time for her to create the agent that she had spent a lot of effort!
With Annie's beckoning motion, a tall and sturdy white unicorn mount was draped in a golden full body armor, with a fine knight's sword on his waist, and a huge dawn sword and shield on his back. The heroic female knight with a long lance and a flag tied to the head of the gun slightly drove the magic mount under her crotch, stepping heavily, and ran directly from the hillside behind.
This female knight, named Ofina, was Annie who spent almost half of her magic power, borrowed from the profound meaning of life created by the Sarnagars, and endowed with a magical soul core similar to Dawn’s brain, plus a big A pile of high-energy crystals, a small bag of starlight white gemstones from Rivendell, several bottles of Elendil's Light, a few leaves of the Double Sacred Tree in Rivendell’s secret library, etc., these miscellaneous things are mixed together After being combined, the magic life is directly successfully created!
Do not! It may not be accurate to say that it is a magical life. Maybe, it can be said that this Ofina, she is actually a living long-life human being with super magical ability? Or is it Maya? !
After all, the opponent has too many factors in this world, such as those double holy tree leaves...
I hope the elves of Rivendell will check their secret library after a longer period of time?
In any case, this Ofina, she is the most outstanding, powerful and perfect magical life that Little Annie has ever created! Her own strength can almost be equal to the secondary Maya of Middle-earth, which is the level before Gandalf was not restricted in strength!
And this is one of Annie's methods to deal with the rules of this Middle-earth game!
In Annie's view, since the gods are using agents to stir the wind and rain in this world, she must not be left behind!
For example, Gandalf, whose original name is Oruoin, is a subordinate of Varda, the of stars. He came to Middle-earth for the purpose of not only guiding mankind not to think about the creation of the gods all day, but also to defeat Sauron?
And the rumored white-robed wizard Saruman is a subordinate of Aoli, the of the earth, why he betrayed to Sauron's side again, then Annie is not sure! Maybe, that Velaoli and Morgoth have a good relationship? Otherwise, how could another traitor appear after Sauron? This must be intentional, right?
Look, these existences that stir the wind and rain in Middle-earth are all the doglegs and minions of those gods, and no has personally ended up naked!
So, since Annie intends to participate in the war of Middle-earth, she must also learn from the gods and foster an agent of her own to participate!
She didn't want to trust outsiders casually, and she couldn't give others strength casually, so she could only choose to create a magic life herself? And what was created was this Ofina, the unicorn female knight known as the Scarlet Queen!
Because of being favored by Annie, this Ofina not only possesses powerful magic power and all kinds of incredible magical skills, but also, her equipment is still made and enchanted by Annie herself. It is a complete set that will not lose to the Lord of the Rings suit. The best dark gold level equipment!
Basically, her combat effectiveness is an existence that can get close to Sauron without losing! So, now the various forces in Middle-earth have basically reached a balance. Look, in the evil allies, there is Chairman Suo, the owner of the Lord of the Rings, and Saruman, who is good at pinching people? And in the Entente of Justice, there are also Gandalf the dung stick and the freshly baked Scarlet Queen Ofina?
It becomes very balanced, perfect, right?
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I might never have believed that such a perfect and holy existence in front of me could have been created by magic?"
"This is really, it's incredible..."
As the beautiful and heroic female knight Ofina rushed up the hillside on a unicorn, those Turin dwarves who were riding low and thick hilly goats quickly gave way to each other.
Then, Groyin stared blankly at this Ofina from her side, facing the small gate of Bray Town.
Until now, Groyin is still impressed...
Just last night, their dwarves, on the top of the wind and clouds, personally witnessed the birth of each other!
On that stormy night... At the top of Amon Sur sentry post, in the huge magic circle carved out by the little girl, the other party was like an angel descending into the mortal world. The little girl wizard beside him, Created out of thin air for a living...
Groyin never thought that people could be made from objects?
"You are really weird, the bearded dwarf!"
"Aren't your entire dwarf races made by the earth Ao Li? Also, the humans of Middle-earth, and those little white-faced elves!"
"Didn't that Gandalf talk about it? Even the villain in white clothes called Saruman is still playing with Isinger?"
"They, Eru and Vera, can create so many lives. What's so strange if I create one by myself?!"
After looking at Ofina who was riding a unicorn down, in fact, Annie felt a little distressed herself.
After all, this existence created by her consumes almost half of her magic power! Even if there are those rare magical treasures and energy crystals and gems, the price paid is indeed a bit high? Therefore, she, who is unskilled in business, can only build such one, no more.
"Uh... well, what you said is reasonable..."
Now Groin finally knew why Gandalf had been a little uneasy about this little girl.
Because, this little kid is like a at all, and he will be a messy existence!
Look at them all, what kind of existence is she comparing with herself? Still like? Vera? These arbitrarily exist, they are the lord who the dwarves have to kneel down when they see it...
Fortunately, Groyin felt that this little girl didn't seem to want to do too much, but was just playing around, just wanting to make a kingdom. It should be... like this, right?
"Lord Lord! What should we do now?!"
Just as the lord of Bray Town was staring at the enemy outside the town to observe the situation, the militia captain from Blay Town leaned in.
"A lot of people have recognized it just now. Outside, have you seen it? The little girl riding a white horse in the distance. She killed four Mordor easily at the Prancing Horse Inn two months ago. The little witch of the Black Knight!"
Finally, when the group of militiamen standing on the low log-framed rammed earth wall in Bray Town was uneasy, among them, another message that made them even more frightened came out, that is: small town On the hillside outside, the little human girl riding a white horse is the little witch who had been to the Prancing Horse Inn before!
"Lord Lord, you have to come up with an idea! That little girl, she will set fire!"
If you want to fight against a group of elite dwarf goat riders, with hundreds of militias and the convenience of a city wall, they can resist so-so!
However, if they were to fight a witch who seemed to be powerful, could set fire, and summon a terrible flame giant axe warrior, then they wouldn't dare...
After all, during this period of time, the drama of the witch vs. the black knight became more and more wicked throughout the town of Bray! Now knowing that the little girl outside was the horror witch two months ago, almost half of the people are discussing it. If the situation is not good later, they will put down their weapons and run home!
The human beings in the Middle-earth world are still very afraid of the strong with extraordinary power! Especially after that night two months ago, several people witnessed the scene of the witch slaughtering the black knight!
"You shit! What are you talking about?"
"Wait for a while and see what they want to do! Maybe they just passed by?"
The lord of the town of Bray, Lord Ianfried, could only growl angrily and then said in general comforting himself.
He is actually more anxious than anyone!
Because here, the town of Bray and the surrounding sites are all his family's traditional industries! And in the northern human territory where the Jarno kingdom has long since disappeared, and there is only a loose Illiyad Freedom Council, he is actually the invisible king here in Bray Town!
And now, the menacing group of dwarves and witches came here with unkind intentions, and now, the one who should be the most anxious is him, the lord of mine!
"Strange! What are they trying to do?"
Suddenly, the mayor and lord Ian Fried, who was anxious, discovered a special situation.
The group of people on the opposite side seems to be planning to send someone to negotiate? Moreover, looking at the other's figure, it seems that she is still a woman? But what is it that she rides under the hip that is obviously taller than a normal horse, and has a long horn?
"..."
Gods...In the world of Middle-earth, there will be something like this? !
When the female knight ran to the gate of Bray Town within an arrow, Ian Fried and the other militiamen hiding behind the fence of the city wall were surprised to find that the one who ran here turned out to be Red-haired woman as beautiful as an angel?
With such a delicate face, is she the elves in the legend? I'm afraid that only those elves of the longevity species will grow so unearthly people, right? It's a pity that the other party is wearing a crown-like helmet protector, so people like them can't tell from the shape of their ears.
tap! tap!
Under the majestic and powerful four-hooves trampling of the unicorn, patches of turf and sand were rolled out by the hooves that were deeply submerged in the ground. Then, outside the gate of Bray Town, Ofina took a look. After a glance at Bray's city gate, he slammed the lance in his hand deeply into the ground under his unicorn.
Let the red-bottomed and golden-rimmed bald eagle flag tied to the head of the lance by her, and it began to fly above the land of Middle-earth for the first time.
"The people in Bray are listening to me!"
After inserting the flag, Ofina directly used magic to amplify her voice, and her pretty face shouted at the militias above the town of Bray.
"I am the queen of the United Kingdom of Alicia, the Scarlet Queen Ofina! Now, who is your lord? Let him come out and answer me immediately!"
Slightly turned the direction of the unicorn under her crotch, Ofina stood beside the flag of the United Kingdom of Alicia, half side of her body, looking at the low city wall, either wearing leather armor or top Crude human militia with iron helmets and even chain armor.
The inferior axe, dagger or dung fork in their hands was simply unsightly to her! Soldiers with this equipment, she didn't think they would have much combat effectiveness! As for their poor number of crossbows, she even felt that whether they could let the arrows fly to her feet was still a problem, let alone whether they could penetrate her armor!
A group of temporary militiamen, five scumbags of war, plus a mob? It is Ofina's final evaluation of the soldiers in Bray Town, which must not be higher.
"Hey! Honorable Lord! Did you hear that? She was looking for you!"
At this moment, the captain of the militia who had been standing next to the lord hastily touched their lord with his elbow. In his opinion, this seems to be a flying Yanfu? Look, such a beautiful chick riding a unicorn outside is still the queen of a kingdom?
"..."
"Please forgive me for my ignorance,... Your Majesty the Queen of Alicia United Kingdom?"
"I’m Ian Fried, the lord of Bray, but I’ve never heard of your country’s name, and I’ve never had any contact with your gratifying people... Excuse me, you’re here now. More than one brigade of dwarf cavalry came to block the gate of my town of Bray, what is the purpose?"
Lord Ian Fried was not confused by the other's beautiful face, he was more concerned about the safety of his own territory and wanted to know the other's true purpose.
As long as these people are not thinking about attacking his town of Bray, then everything is easy to discuss!
"You are the lord of Bray? Very good!"
Frowning, and looking at the middle-aged man who was standing on the wall with only half of his body exposed, Ofina nodded secretly.
Judging from the other person's appearance, it may indeed be the person with the highest status among those people. Since the other person said the same, it should be correct.
"On the order of my lord, our Alicia Kingdom must take down your town of Bray and the surrounding area today! Before today's evening shift, your city must be planted with the flag of the United Kingdom!"
"So, in order to avoid unnecessary wars, we plan to buy your territory! Now, please make a price!"
Prior to this, the host Anne had already explained Ofina, if she could not fight, it would be better not to fight!
Therefore, Ofina intends to directly use the money to buy this small town of three or four thousand people, and then let her only exist in the name of the United Kingdom of Alicia to rule here, and after training a sufficient number of new troops, Sweep the territory of the former Arno kingdom in the surrounding northern plains in one fell swoop!
Prior to this, she was still a little bit worried about the second phase of the goal. After seeing the level of armed forces in this town of Bray, she no longer had the slightest worry about whether the plan to sweep the surrounding area could be swept away!
Take a glimpse and see the whole leopard. Since the middle-scale Bray town in front of you is only at this level, other towns and territories are obviously not enough!
"Buy...buy my territory?!"
Ian Fried was shocked by the words of the woman outside who claimed to be the king!
Originally, it was very strange for a woman to become a king, but now she still doesn't abide by the rules at all, so she wanted to blatantly buy her own minefield?
Although, he wants to sell a little bit himself, but Ian Fried has only one Bray collar. Once he really sells, where do you let him go? Besides, if you want to buy, the other party can also secretly send someone to discuss it. How can you ask for a price after the soldiers have come to the city?
From this look, he knew that the other party was obviously insincere! Or maybe they don't want to pay too high a price at all?
"Sorry, I didn't sell my territory...?"
Before Ian Fried was finished speaking, his eyes went round instantly!
Because, he saw that the woman who claimed to be the king, when he was thinking about it, waved his hand so casually, so that eight dwarven warriors carried four big boxes from behind? Then, when the dwarves opened the lid of the box, there were all chunks of thick, golden bars of gold?
If the money is all gold, it would be more than enough to buy two Bray towns, right? !
"..."
Now, Ian Fried feels that since they are willing to pay so much money, it seems that they want to buy Bray Town?
But these people, can't they find someone to come and negotiate with them in private? Have to display so much gold so blatantly? Even if he really agrees now, it is estimated that he himself may not be able to leave Bray Town with so many gold bars alive, right?
"Now, speak your decision, Lord Ianfried of Bray! As long as you agree, these are all yours!"
While speaking, Ofina put one hand on her sword hilt at the same time, and she was already a little impatient.
Moreover, her own master Annie has already begun to urge herself in private! Therefore, she does not intend to waste too much time here, she wants to let the master who created herself see her value! Since the plan was to take the mine before dusk, she would never wait until the sun went down!
"very sorry……"
After thinking about it seriously, Ian Fried felt that it seemed that his life was more important? Although he wanted the gold outside, he was afraid that he would lose his life...
If he has other territories under his own name, or if there are more troops loyal to him, then the town of Bray will be sold if it is sold. Anyway, he can use this part of the windfall to buy better and more. land?
"I can't promise you, Honorable Majesty of the United Kingdom of Alicia! I think it is better for you to retreat as soon as possible. Believe me, our Brayling never intends to be your enemy!"
When he refused, Ian Fried quickly persuaded him in good faith at the same time.
"If you don't mind, I can send an envoy for you to Anuminas in the north or the town of Ystad in the south? I think they must have extra land willing to sell to you! You think, mine What about this suggestion?"
Then, after thinking about it, he was afraid of irritating these people, so he quickly gave another suggestion that seemed to him to be very reliable: let this group of outsiders go to the Ivandin Lake woodland in the north or the Ystad Plain basin in the south Where to buy territory?
He believes that as long as the other party is willing to give him enough benefits and intermediary fees, he will spare no effort to buy them enough land for a fair price! Best, is to be able to give a certain box of gold outside and give it to yourself as a reward?
choke! !
When Ian Fried was making good calculations in his heart, the sound of a long sword being unsheathed suddenly rang.
"In the name of my lord! In the name of light! In the name of flame!"
Seeing that the negotiation broke down, Ofina didn't even think about it, and she drew the long sword from her waist.
Then, she directly raised the long sword with a hint of red light above her head, and sternly shouted three exciting slogans.
In the next instant, two strong golden beams of light fell from the sky and appeared directly beside her! The intensely stimulating light even caused the humans far away on the city wall and the dwarves behind Ofina herself to close their eyes.
"Come out! Doomsday angels! Use your light and flame power to purify the enemy of our lord!"
When Ofina’s voice fell, when the dazzling golden light dissipated, all the humans and dwarves finally saw that beside the Ofina Queen, there were two huge flights suspended out of thin air. biological?
Behind them, there is a pair of white feathered wings with a trace of flame. Moreover, at the same time, he was also wearing a plate armor, holding a huge cross sword in his right hand, and in his left hand a shield with the same huge red-bottomed golden eagle emblem? They seem to be the legendary... angels of the gods? !
"This is really hell! How is this possible?!"
I never knew that Ofina, who had only been created by the little witch for a long time, had such an outrageously capable Groyin, and was so startled that she almost fell directly off the back of the hill goat.
And the other Turin dwarf goat riders are not much better. Their mounts are making uneasy low roars, as if they want to get away from this place quickly?
It turns out that this is one of the ultimate skills that Anne designed specifically for Ofina to deceive people: Summon Angels of Doom!
Actually, those two angels are just manifested energy creatures. They don't last for a long time, and their combat effectiveness is actually very average. Their main function is: they can fly! Will fight! Will hack people! Of course, the most powerful function is to scare people!
If they landed to the ground for a head-to-head duel, they would have the most, that is, to the extent that they can single out a ring spirit on the ground, right?
But what other people don't know!
In the eyes of the current dwarves or the Bray militiamen on the city wall: the two angels who are one size bigger than the trolls, they are the messengers of the flame goddess, the symbol of miracles! It is the mysterious power summoned by Queen Ofina from the United Kingdom of Alicia with the sword! Just by looking at it, you know that they will have unparalleled fighting ability!
Moreover, their existence itself, they are a living miracle!
"God is on top..."
Obviously, after seeing the other party summon two huge angels, Bray's wall was full of exclamations.
"Lord Lord, take care, I don't need the salary for next month!"
"Also, from today, you can ask someone for the position of captain of the militia! I am now a free ranger again!"
Clang!
The captain of the militia who was standing next to Lord Ianfried dropped his iron-clad shield on the spot, and then he jumped directly from the low city wall into the town of Bray.
It didn't count if he lost the shield. He ran into the city, while slamming the outsiders from his body, which could be recognized by the coat of arms of Bray Town and the heavy chain armor.
Cang Dang!
"Lord Lord! I won't do it anymore!"
"me too!"
"Leader, Lord Lord! I also want to go back to the hotel to work!"
"I... I have something in my family, maybe my wife is going to have a baby?"
"Find a fart interface, everyone, run away!"
"Right, yes! Run! Fight against the angels, but you will be punished by God!"
"..."
The power of the role model is huge, and the enemy's deterrent power is even greater!
Therefore, in the next moment, the other militiamen or the strong defenders who were awakened by the actions of the militia captains dropped their various weapons, bows and arrows, etc., and then turned around and moved towards their homes in the city Flee desperately.
In fact, they can't be blamed. If they were to fight and defend with those dwarves, they might still insist. But now, not only fighting with witches, but also with a queen beloved by God who will summon archangels? Just thinking with your ass, you know that there is absolutely no chance of winning!
"Hey! Wait for me!"
If you don’t run now, when do you need to wait?
No one is a fool. Should they wait to be slaughtered when they know they will lose? They are just a group of militiamen, and most of them drag their families away. It's not easy for anyone?
"..."
When Lord Ianfried finally reacted~EbookFREE.me~The whole log was built on the rammed earth wall, and only he and a few knights were left? It's just that, looking at their pale faces and wandering eyes, he also knows that they seem to leave themselves and run away at any time?
"Witch Anne, are you sure... this is what you call non-use of magic?"
After the initial shock, the old dwarf Groyin finally withdrew his gaze from the two miraculous angels who were still flying in mid-air with difficulty, then his lips trembled, and he asked with difficulty. This little witch with a smug look beside her.
"I didn't use magic indiscriminately!"
"Look! I didn't use it in the first place! Didn't you see clearly just now? It was Ofina who used it, not me!"
After Anne repeated this key point again, she stared back mercilessly.
This old dwarf with a messy face and a beard, he looks at himself with that face full of contempt. Does he mean it? ! Does the magic that others put on him still want to rely on himself? This is really outrageous!
