As a former protoss, there is no doubt about the combat effectiveness of the Balrog. It can be said to be one of the most powerful legions under Morgoth. In terms of performance, none of the dragon clan can match it.

After all, the flightless Balrog often rides a dragon into battle.

After Morgoth was imprisoned and exiled, the Balrogs were defeated and killed one by one, leaving only a few bereaved dogs hiding in the dark corners of Middle-earth, waiting for the dark forces to rise again.

And this Balrog came from the abandoned mines of Moria by the dwarves and has been hiding underground.

In fact, Chu Xin went to the Mines of Moria and killed all the Orcs occupying it. However, he went all the way to the deepest point and did not find the Balrog that appeared in the movie. Instead, he smelled

The lingering smell of old acquaintance.

In fact, it was Sauron who ordered Saruman to go to the mines of Moria. After all, the Balrog and Sauron were on the same level, so asking the Witch King of Angmar to be a messenger would most likely result in failure. Saruman

He successfully persuaded the Balrog to come out of the mountain and handed over Sauron's gift - the Balrog's Heart. After eating the heart of the same kind, the Balrog of Moria's strength greatly increased, and his height also increased from more than ten meters to twenty meters.

The Balrog happened to be absorbing the energy of the Balrog's Heart in the territory of Rohan, and the movement caused by the Wild Spirit attracted its attention.

"Humans? Together with your ugly nests, you ants will be reduced to ashes in my flames. There are actually dirty undead creatures that will accept my hot baptism together!"

The Balrog, which had not killed for a long time, suddenly developed killing intent. It changed from walking in an orderly manner to running at a high speed. In addition, it was on a downhill road, and the momentum it erupted in an instant was simply terrifying.

"Lair?" Théoden looked back and immediately understood what he was talking about.

The undulating outline in the distance is none other than the royal capital of Edoras!

In an instant, the expressions of the cavalrymen changed dramatically, and their eyes showed the determination to look forward to death.

Fear, panic, and trembling are all transformed into courage and protection.

Are you scared?

Of course I was scared to death, but I was even more afraid of the Balrog storming into my home and killing them wantonly!

Therefore, we can no longer retreat!

"Spears, array." Théoden roared in a deep voice.

Swish, swish, swish!

Long spears came out diagonally upward, forming a charge formation.

But the Spirit of the Wild struck first.

Rumble~

I saw it burrowing into the ground, making a loud and dull noise. Along with the tremors, the rock and soil under the Balrog's feet exploded.

In the smoke, the huge skeletal body suddenly pounced forward, waving its two sharp claws at each other.

In terms of size, the Spirit of the Wilderness is larger than the Balrog, but in terms of intimidation and momentum, the Balrog completely crushes it.

boom--

The flames expanded and burned all the earth and rocks, and the vision was restored.

With a "clang" sound, the lava fire sword drawn by Balrog's right hand cut off the entire right arm of the wilderness spirit.

Bang!

The spirit of the wilderness ignored it and struck hard on the Balrog's arm with his left claw, leaving three long scratches on the surface.

Boom!

Balrog clenched his left fist and struck the Wild Spirit's abdominal spine with a heavy blow.

In an instant, the dense gaps opened and spread, and the spirit of the wilderness let out a shrill roar.

Without waiting for it to react, the Balrog, who was experienced in fighting, held the fire sword in his hand and slashed hard, cutting off half of the wilderness spirit's ribs.

Then, the Balrog stepped forward and suppressed the Spirit of the Wilderness beneath him.

"It is a great honor for a filthy creature like you to die in my hands."

The Balrog taunted arrogantly, while holding the struggling head of the Wild Spirit with both hands, and using both big arms to pull out a huge white skull with great cruelty.

Not only that, it also crushed the sternum of the Wild Spirit with one foot, and the bones and debris were all over the hillside.

Huhu~

The burning eyes of the wilderness spirit gradually extinguished and lost their vitality.

Balrog held the skull and looked at it for a while, then put his left hand through its mouth and put it on his forearm, using it as a shield.

"Your head is worth more than your life."

And it completely ignored the Rohan cavalry two thousand meters away, adjusting the comfort level of the "shield" on its own.

This scene undoubtedly penetrated the hearts of Théoden and others like a needle.

Anger, frustration and other emotions emerged all at once, making their blood boil.

"Avenge it!" Eomond said ferociously.

"Old man, don't worry," Théoden suddenly patted Eomond on the shoulder, "You lead a team of troops back to Edoras as quickly as possible and organize the people to evacuate. We stay to stop the Balrog and give

You buy time."

"What are you talking about? I'm the Grand Marshal, and it's me who wants to stay!" Of course Iomond didn't want to.

"Don't forget that I am the King of Rohan! After Eomond's orders, he immediately returned to the city to protect the people, and don't let Theodwen and the children be in danger!" Théoden was furious and yelled.

Eomond clenched his fists, gritted his teeth with red eyes, "Guards, follow me!"

Watching hundreds of people leaving quickly, Théoden finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes changed from relief to determination.

"Everyone, do you know what the Balrog is? It is a corrupted god, and today we are going to fight the god!"

He took off the red cloak on his back, revealing a suit of silver-grey armor, and then drew out his sword and raised it high.

"kill--"

Théoden leads the way, followed by thousands of murderous troops.

Throughout the wars of Rohan, large and small, almost all generals, marshals and even kings took the lead in charging, standing in front of the most dangerous army without hesitation. They did not need words to prove that every move had already written a hymn of courage.

"A mantis' arm is like a chariot, and it is vulnerable to a single blow."

The Balrog raised his eyes, pulled out the fire sword inserted in the spirit of the wilderness's leg bone, and jumped straight down from a cliff.

Boom——

Dozens of tons of Balrogs fell heavily on the center of the cavalry army, and hundreds of soldiers and horses died in one encounter.

"There is no retreat in today's battle. As long as one person survives, we will fight to the bitter end!" Théoden turned back, took the lead in charging, and slashed at the Balrog's heel with his sword.

Tens of thousands of cavalrymen, with red eyes, swarmed forward like a pack of desperate bloodthirsty wolves.

"A mere human dares to point his sword at me!"

The Balrog thrust the sword into the ground fiercely, and then swirled it hard. The rolling flames spread like a wind, and all the people and horses that were infected were turned into charcoal that broke at the touch of a touch.

Even so, the cavalry continued to charge, charge, charge. Regardless of whether they were injured or not, they brandished their swords and guns again and again, leaving insignificant marks one after another on the Balrog's body.

"Théogede, when the sun rises tomorrow, you will be the next King of Rohan." Théoden faced the flaming sword without hesitation and threw the last blow of his life.

When he was burned by the sword blade, the royal spear that came out of his hand was like an afterimage, piercing Balrog's left eye.

I don’t know how long it took, but a touch of fish belly white appeared on the bloody sky.

The Balrog stood alone on the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, destroying the bones of the cavalry with an angry look on his face.

It felt so humiliated that it was delayed for most of the night by a group of ants, and even had its left eye blinded by a human.

boom!

boom!

Endless anger was squeezed out of his heart, and clusters of flames violently burst out of his pores.

"Killing~I need more killing~"

Wow——

Balrog's back trembled, and a pair of huge black and red flesh wings spread out.

It flew towards Edoras, leaving debris all over the ground.

None of the cavalry legions, including King Théoden of Rohan, survived, and all died heroically.

But their sacrifices were not meaningless. When the Balrog arrived in Edoras, they discovered that it was already an empty city.

Whoosh!

It was so angry that it set the entire Rohan King on fire, and the raging fire spread from bottom to top until it engulfed the palace that was prostrate on the top of the mountain.

Next, the Balrog flew towards the south. After all, it promised Sauron to destroy a dragon that betrayed Lord Morgoth.

In a hidden valley, thousands of people gathered together in exhaustion and sorrow.

Eomond looked at the rising thick black smoke, his eyes red and he clenched his teeth.

He turned around and knelt on one knee in front of his nephew, "Thiojed, from today on, you are the king of Rohan. I will assist you for the rest of my life, and I will fight for Rohan until I die of old age.
