"Boom! Boom!" The sound of heavy horse hooves rang out, and an army holding the Lagrang Dragon flag appeared near Karl Rock.
"Pay attention to your surroundings! We are not sure if there are orcs here!" Lance rode on his warhorse, looking at the tall Kalyan in front of him.
"Clang!" The heavy cavalrymen drew their weapons casually, and the sharp knight swords and straight lances flashed with deadly cold light.
…
"Dang, dang, dang!" Three feather arrows flew out in succession and landed in front of Lance and others. Looking at the arrows that penetrated deeply into the earth, everyone's pace of progress slowed down!
"Be careful! It shouldn't be an orc!" Lance's cautious tone revealed a hint of joy.
"Why?" Jesse Ava asked puzzled.
"If it was an orc, then the three arrows would not have sunk into the ground but would have appeared on your forehead or throat!" Lance shook his head.
"Master of this place! I want to talk to you, we have no ill intentions!" Lance saw many boats floating on the river not far away, so he quickly put away his weapons and walked forward slowly.
"Who are you?" A man holding a staff and wearing a dark green robe jumped out from the grass.
"We are northern humans from Rhovanion. We belong to the Kingdom of Raglan. We have important matters that require us to travel south to Gondor." Lance looked at the human in front of him and recognized him as a druid.
"The Kingdom of Lagrang? What is that?" Apparently, the druid had never heard of the name of the Kingdom of Lagrang.
"It's a new human kingdom at the foot of Lonely Mountain..." Lance could only say it briefly.
"Well...how about this, you come with me to meet our leader! But your army has to stay here and wait for you!" The druid was very cautious.
"Okay, thank you for the introduction!" Lance touched his chest to express his gratitude.
…
"Bion?" Lance asked in surprise. Wasn't the person before him the skin-changing druid who had appeared at the Battle of Five Armies? (Because of the variables brought on by Roland and the others, Bion and his companions played a much smaller role than in history.) Although Lance hadn't witnessed the druids' devastating slaughter at the Battle of Five Armies, Ivy's photo stone had faithfully recorded their heroic figures.
"You know me?" Beorn was very surprised. He hadn't been out for a long time, except for the Battle of Five Armies when he responded to the wizard's invitation and for his own survival and development.
"I've seen your heroic figure in the Battle of Five Armies! The giant bear you transformed into was simply a meat grinder on the battlefield!" Lance did not hesitate to praise you.
"Uh..." How could the simple-minded druid have ever experienced such flattery? Lance flattered Beorn with just one word, feeling extremely happy and comfortable!
"No way... No way." Beorn waved his hands embarrassedly. Lance's words made him very happy. He didn't even know that he was so powerful.
In fact, as one of the few beast druids in Middle-earth, druids who possess transformation spells such as Druid's Bear, Druid's Eagle, and Druid's Wolf are all-rounders on the battlefield. Their natural magic can cause huge damage at a distance, and their melee transformation spells give them melee abilities that are no less than those of Warcraft. Their abundant magic power gives them a powerful magic shield, so when they go onto the battlefield, even the knights will tremble because of them!
"By the way, what are you doing here?" Bion finally remembered the main business.
"We need to go south to Gondor, and we would like to rent your boat!" Lance turned his head and nodded at the boat floating in the river.
"Well, I can rent the boat to you, but you have to pay a commission!" Bion thought for a moment.
"Of course, this is the rent!" Lance took out a small bag of gold coins from his arms and handed it to Bion with both hands.
"Wow!" Bion shook the bag with one hand and nodded with satisfaction. You know, such a bag of gold coins is enough for him and his people to buy many necessities. There are still many human villages here. At least it's not like Roland and his people who have money but nowhere to spend it.
"Let your soldiers come in and rest! Although the conditions here are not particularly good, it is safe enough. No creature from the dark camp dares to come here to cause trouble!" Beon said proudly, patting his chest.
Lance's mouth twitched. In fact, there were not many fools who were so blind as to want to attack this group of druids. After all, they were a group of idiots who could attack from a distance and in close combat, and had both tankiness and output. There was no need to make things difficult for them, right?
"Wow! It's so simple here!" Jesse Ava looked at the druid gathering place full of pastoral atmosphere in surprise. The place where these druids live is full of natural atmosphere and industrial products are rarely seen. This is obviously inseparable from the druids' love for nature.
"These druids are so weird!" Jesse Ava said with some disgust. You know, the history of goblins may be longer than that of humans. They have dealt with druids a long time ago, so the goblins are still very familiar with these druids with strange behaviors.
"Dwarf?" Beorn's face suddenly changed when he saw Jesseava mixed in the team. You know, the druids who love nature and the dwarves who are known as the destroyers of nature are naturally incompatible. If they didn't have common enemies such as the orcs, they might have started fighting first.
"Oh! Damn it! I'm afraid of causing such a misunderstanding!" Jesse Ava rolled his eyes and looked helpless. He jumped off the horse and lifted his hood.
"Hey! Are you venting your anger on your face? Can't you see my noble green skin? Can't you see my pointed ears? I am a goblin! Not one of those dwarves with muscles on their heads!" Jesse Ava was so angry that he jumped up and down. Obviously, goblins and dwarves were not easy to deal with.
"Uh..." Bion wiped his eyes and looked at Jesseava carefully. He found that the thing in front of him was indeed not a dwarf, and his old face suddenly turned red.
"Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry!" Suddenly, Jesse Ava's stomach churned. Jesse Ava, who was originally furious, was stunned for a moment, and then asked Bi Weng without blushing or heartbeating.
"Um, these freshly baked shortbread cookies, would you like some?"
