Chapter 247 Quick Completion

In Middle-earth, wizards have a natural right to join in the fun due to their absolute position and powerful abilities.

It is the same today.

However, in addition to joining in the fun, wizards usually have a certain command power in the same camp as long as the lord and regional manager do not prohibit it.

As for the level of this command power, it is linked to reputation.

For example, Gandalf, if the White City loses its prime minister during the war and there is no successor in a short time, he can even take over the prime minister's command on the spot.

With the accumulation of thousands of years, the status of wizards is now second only to the supreme ruler, and their role is also to be omnipotent, and they can make up for any lack.

Oh, except for Brown Robe, he is a relatively alternative pure auxiliary wizard, not good at command and fighting.

But he can summon animal friends.

"Everyone, pay attention, be careful of the southwest direction, the Orcs will most likely attack from there!"

"Ranger team over there, go to the bridge to collect intelligence and monitor the progress of the Orcs' march. I need their latest news."

In the Riverside Castle, Gandalf is preparing for the upcoming war.

He is currently the highest commander of the Riverside Castle - this is with Levi's permission.

As for Balin who is following beside him, this wise old warrior who is one of the few dwarves with profound knowledge and scholarly demeanor is also a general-level figure. He can be the best striker on the front line and an excellent commander in the rear.

"Are we waiting here?"

Balin stared at the direction of Moria on the other side of the river, wondering what he was thinking.

"If you want to take some action, there are some things I can leave to you."

"What?"

"Go to Rivendell and talk to the elves and call for some reinforcements."

"Then I might as well rush into Moria by myself now, and Levi said that he doesn't need to ask for help."

"Of course, he certainly doesn't need it."

Gandalf thought about it and said, "But if it really comes to the time of need, maybe he doesn't need to ask for help at all, and the nearby allies will come by themselves."

When something big happens, if Levi asks for help, it means that the situation must be very urgent and must be supported as soon as possible.

And if Levi doesn't ask for help, it means that he may not have time to ask for help, and the situation must be more urgent, and must be supported at a faster speed.

Hua La--

The hot magma fell down one by one, and when it fell to the bottom, it was turned into stone by a bucket of water that also fell quickly from above.

This is the "emergency wall building method" that the people learned from the lord. Of course, everyone knows that this can only be done in the territory with the lord's magical power, and it is useless if you are far away.

There are naturally some ways to do things outside.

When the high wall was initially built, a ranger who was sent out to investigate the news returned. He looked very anxious and not as calm as before.

"They will arrive in two days at the earliest."

The formal ranger who had graduated panted and said, "In addition, the previous news was not accurate. The number of this Orc army is even larger, at least three times the number of troops we can gather in the short term."

"At least 15,000, and equipped with a large number of siege beasts."

"It seems that they are coming out in full force."

"And, the 'Ringwraiths' you mentioned before, we observed that there are at least three here."

"At least?"

"Yes, at least."

"We were discovered - I promise that there was no mistake in our disguise and lurking, but one of the Ringwraiths suddenly rushed over with a scream. He seemed to know the hiding places we usually choose very well, or in other words, he knew our habits very well."

When this was mentioned, the ranger looked frightened.

"Fortunately, our horses run fast and are very strong. They didn't fall down even after being shot with several arrows."

"Otherwise, we might not be able to come back."

The ranger patted the fast horse beside him and fed it some wheat.

If Levi were here, he would see that the horse's health was recovering, and before feeding wheat, it was actually only a blood skin.

Those arrows almost killed the horse equipped with iron horse armor with more than 30 drops of blood.

"The horses in the roadside fort are all like this, fast, and not afraid of pain, nor afraid of severe cold and heat. They can run for a long time with just a little grass occasionally. Even if they are injured, they can recover quickly by feeding some wheat."

Gandalf gave his own experience.

"The only disadvantage is that it is relatively dull. If you don't ride it or tie it with a rope, it won't listen to you."

"I agree."

The topic of the two people soon turned to discussing horse management.

I have to say, this kind of horse is really convenient. You don't need to take care of it. When you don't need it, just put it somewhere like an object. You don't need to take care of it. When you need it, you can ride it and run.

"Wait, it seems that this is not the time to discuss this?"

Balin couldn't understand what the two were discussing because he didn't ride horses very often. Dwarves usually ride wild boars and goats.

And these two species... Levi didn't raise them.

"Oh, you're right, it's really not the time to talk about this."

Gandalf suddenly recovered.

It's all Levi's fault. The residents of his territory have the same temperament as him. They were fighting for life and death in the last second, and they could start chatting about daily anecdotes in the next second.

He has a strong ability to go off topic.

"What we should do now is to strengthen the defense measures."

"That's right."

The ranger agreed with him and joined the construction team on the spot. He naturally mixed into the construction team and started to build with a block.

Including the members of the reconnaissance team who returned later, after seeing the captain working, they also joined in.

Gradually, with the return of the rangers wandering in the wilderness around, the number of rangers working on the city wall even exceeded the construction team, and they became the main force of construction.

"Well, they did everything."

Balin looked at the rapidly rising city wall and was a little dazed for a while.

"It seems that there is no place to help. What should we do now?"

Now Gandalf was a little at a loss.

All the important things were done by someone, and there were no moths. This was too smooth.

"Now that things have come to this, let's eat first."

As it got dark, the two went to the temporary canteen to line up and get some food for dinner.

Although it was a temporary base, the supplies were quite rich. Basically, there was everything you wanted to eat, and there was no limit on the amount, including wine. However, since it was in the war preparation period, you couldn't drink too much, at most you could have a small sip with your meal.

Tonight was not peaceful. The construction team took turns to rush the work, so that the high wall completely surrounded the territory, and even built the revetment project. The sand and gravel on the riverside were replaced with a solid stone wall.

The waves hit it, but the wall stood still.
