The Bard at Hogwarts

Chapter 252: Patronus Spell's Morale Boost

Magic world, the ancient white magic patronus spell.

It will appear in Middle-earth for the first time.

Under the night sky, the stars in the sky seemed to be much brighter, as if responding to something.

As the spell sounded, the top of the wand emitted a dazzling light, followed by a silver beam of light rushing straight into the sky.

Countless glowing silver smoke gathered and instantly illuminated the sky of Helm's Deep, and a sacred breath arose spontaneously.

And bathed in this brilliance, whether it was the elves on the defensive wall or the Rohan people in the Horn Castle, they all felt warmth and strength, as well as a faint joy of harvest.

They suddenly felt that they were no longer alone, and they were no longer afraid of the strong orc army.

In Helm's Deep, the momentum of the elves and humans suddenly changed.

The silver clouds in the sky also changed. Under the reflection of the stars in the night sky, something seemed to be moving in the clouds, and its outline was looming in the light.

...

The horn sounded.

In the original story, at dawn on the fifth day, Helm's horn sounded ahead of time.

The melodious horn sounded throughout the valley, and the courage of the original humans in Middle-earth was once again demonstrated.

"For glory! For the people! Soldiers of Rohan, fight back!"

Theoden drew his sword, stood on the battlements of the Horn Castle, and issued a call belonging to the king.

The Rohan people, they may not have the blood of Numenor, nor the longevity of the Dunedain, nor the powerful martial arts of the elves.

But as the purest human beings in Middle-earth, Rohan will always be the most tenacious and loyal nation. Because no matter what kind of enemy they face, they always charge fearlessly on their horses.

The battle started.

The first to react were the elven archers on the defensive wall. They drew their bows and shot arrows in a uniform manner. Each round of volleys could accurately take away more than 200 orcs.

The Rohan people in the Horn Castle were also not to be outdone, and countless arrows shot at the orcs.

Perhaps, Saluman was careful, because even though they were shrouded in the fear of Boggart, the orcs still rushed towards the defense wall without flinching.

Countless arrows were shot, accompanied by the falling figures of countless orcs.

After sacrificing thousands of people, the orcs also walked to the city wall and began their siege plan.

The hook with the thick rope stabbed the defense wall fiercely. After confirming that it was strong, the orcs used the pulley to pass through the rope and pulled up twelve tall siege ladders.

The thick and heavy wooden ladders began to rise slowly under the pull of countless orcs, but...

"God's Edge Without Shadow!"

The powerful black magic with curses, like an invisible blade, cut through the ropes of the twelve ladders.

"Buzz~"

These ladders made of thick tree stumps, after losing the drag of the ropes, were like drunken giants, smashing towards the orcs one after another.

In just a moment, the momentum of the orcs' charge was interrupted again.

After doing all this, Ino stood on the defensive wall with a magic wand in hand.

He didn't have time to pay too much attention to the remaining orcs.

After losing the ladder and facing the blocked drainage, these orcs were just moving targets.

What he had to guard against now was Saluman, because there was one thing that was very uncertain. Was Saluman restricted in strength and unable to take action, or was he delayed by other things?

This was not an unfounded speculation, but in the original story, facing the attack of the tree shepherds in Fangorn Forest.

On the Tower of Isengard, Saluman adopted a zero-resistance attitude throughout the whole process, allowing the flood to pour and the tree people to attack, which was somewhat meaningful.

However, all this is currently just speculation based on the story.

Ino knew very well that under his full-strength attack, the defensive wall of Helm's Deep would no longer exist, let alone Saluman.

Defense must be defended, even if it turns out that it is overthinking, it cannot be left alone.

Therefore, he only took a side on the battlefield, such as destroying the ladder, covering the entrance of the slope of the Horn Castle with frost, and turning butter on the frost.

But that was all, he would not be distracted by the offensive of the strong orcs.

...

The battle of Helm's Deep was still in full swing.

The archers kept shooting, and the elves were better. Even in high-intensity battles, their attack rhythm did not slow down at all.

On the Horn Castle, Rohan's soldiers were already a little exhausted. Human physical strength is limited after all. After continuous bow shooting, many people's arms were shaking, and they couldn't even hold the longbow in their hands.

But these were all minor problems. If you can't draw the bow, there are javelins, battle axes, flails, stones...

The Horn Castle began to throw things. In this fierce battle, the style of painting seemed to change quietly.

But all this made the dwarf Jinli suffer. Not only did he not play a role throughout the whole process, he even had to jump to watch the show because the parapet was higher than him.

Facing the ridicule of his friend Legolas, Gimli refuted without hesitation:

"When they come up, I will definitely let them see the power of the dwarven battle axe. I can fight ten of them head-on, instead of hiding and shooting arrows like some long-eared ones."

"But in fact, you haven't killed any of them now!"

Although fighting, Legolas accurately found the pain point and taunted again with a critical attack.

"Ah!" Gimli roared, untied the battle axe on his back, jumped up and threw it towards the strong orcs outside.

The huge force made the heavy battle axe fly a long way.

"Oh wow! You killed one now, I take back what I said before!" Legolas said in a teasing tone after finishing shooting again.

"But it's just one!"

...

The battle lasted from night to dawn.

Almost all the Uruks outside the Holy Helm's Deep were killed or wounded.

This point has to be admired by Saluman. This kind of character of fighting to the death, only the Uruks can do this in the entire dark forces of Middle-earth.

The first light on the horizon illuminated the entire valley, and also illuminated the guardians gathered above the valley.

Suddenly, Ino seemed to feel something, looked up at the guardian in the air, and a swimming figure clearly emerged in the silver-white clouds.

Similarly, the black fog that permeated the valley all night is now fading like a tide.

The horror between life and death has made Boggart undergo a very obvious change.

The thick black fog actually has the effect of a curtain, and everything it passes is shrouded in darkness, without any light.

But soon, the mist returned to the shadows like a swallow returning to its nest.

When a white-robed knight appeared on the eastern hillside, everything seemed as if nothing had happened.
