The Fargon Forest is a very ancient forest, which is said to be entrenched by mysterious guardians, blocking all creatures trying to invade Fargon, and even the elves dare not enter it without authorization. However, the expeditionary force did not get much extra distance to bypass the Fargon Forest, so for safe reasons, they did not cross the forest directly, but chose to take a detour.

The journey of the Expeditionary Force was not calm. Small orc teams often appeared in the areas near the border of Luohan Kingdom. They were entangled with the lord guards of various territories. Once they seized the opportunity, they would plunder nearby villages and swallow all living things. Whenever the Expeditionary Force encountered something that could be solved, they would annihilate these orcs.

Hu Bin looked at the attributes of the legion flag, but unexpectedly, a small encounter before, made the battle flag hungry again. Since he arrived in this world, it was the first time that his battle flag was lit out. Although the flag used in the battle of the alliance was also his own logo, it was an ordinary flag with no attributes to speak of. Fortunately, the name of the legion flag was left at that time, which was just convenient for him to fool these subordinates now. Hu Bin originally wanted to use it to increase morale and better grasp the command of the legion, but later found that scattered battles could promote the level promotion of the legion flag.

The Expeditionary Force originally planned to bypass the Fargon Forest and then cross the wilderness to Idoras, the king of Kinzo, in the Kingdom of Rohan, where King Hieuson could be seen, but when passing by a noble castle, Hu Bin learned that Dieuson had been abandoned and that the residents were being moved to the Holy Helmet Valley, while King Hieuson issued an order to rescue the king to the whole country.

"Is Saruman ready to carry out the full development? Where did he gain such great confidence?" The news he heard scattered on the road gave Hardir a clear understanding of the current situation of the Kingdom of Rohan, but he did not expect it to be so bad.

"There is news that Aisinger in the west has a large number of troops set out from there, and the target may be the Holy Helmet Valley." Hu Bin heard a lot of news from the nearby mercenary tavern. After a long time, he finally met other numberers. Because the Battle of Holy Helmet Valley was approaching, the numberers of both camps spontaneously gathered here. However, Hu Bin had something to do, and the identity of the elf clan was also very hidden, so it was not suitable to communicate with them in person, so Hu Bin knew nothing about the information in the circle of the numberers.

"How many troops are there in humans?" Haldir frowned.

"I don't know, but it probably won't be too many, but some lords have responded to the call of King Hiyodon to send troops to support it."

"Although the defense in the Holy Helmet Valley is strong, Saruman is coming in a fierce manner. I guess he is sure to capture it. If King Hieuson is defeated, Rohan will definitely be divided. If he fights against the Demon Lord Sauron, you cannot lose Rohan's power. We must keep it there, Reed, and we need to march in a hurry."

The elves began to confine their luggage, each of them brought only dry food and weapons, and all other unnecessary objects were abandoned. Many humans discovered this fast-moving team, and even many numberers tried to find out their origins, but were scared away by an arrow without exception.

However, their whereabouts were learned by the nearby orcs. Hardir had to suspend the march several times to deal with the pursuit of orc troops. Hu Bin's command skills made other soldiers completely recognize the commander. However, the expeditionary army was not in good condition. The elves' energy was consumed during the rushing march, and even Hu Bin himself could not hold on. The horses had long been allocated to some wounded people, but the limited horses were just a drop in the bucket for the entire legion. If they were not able to get a rest, non-combat reductions were likely to occur in the army.

Saruman's army was rushing towards the Holy Helmet Valley day and night. The expeditionary force needed to enter the Holy Helmet Valley as soon as possible, otherwise the role the elves could play would be greatly reduced without the protection of the city wall. However, the exhausted Haldir had to let the team stop. Although the warriors of the elves were stronger than ordinary humans, they could not be compared with orcs.

"How long will it take to arrive?" Hu Bin swallowed Lambas hard, slowly swallowed with clean water, and then fell to the ground all of a sudden, never thinking about it again.

"If it goes well, there will be two days left, sir." The elf adjutant sat next to him, sweat soaked his cloak, and Hu Bin could even see his legs trembling.

"If I had chosen the traveler profession at that time, time would not have been so tight, hey." Hu Bin knew that Saruman's army was not far from them, and might have caught up with the expeditionary army. In that case, all efforts would be in vain.

"Damn it, why am I so stupid? Numberer! Numberer! Have I been in this world for a long time and forgotten my identity and I don't care about that much?" Hu Bin beats his chest and stamps his feet. Since he has not chosen the career of a traveler, other numberers may choose.

"Adminton, bring my horse and tell General Hardir to say that I have something very important to do, and I will probably catch up with you in half a day." Hu Bin pulled over the reins of the adjutant, turned over the horse and went straight to the nearest mercenary tavern.

"Who can give me a glass of soda? I will give you 50 gold coins and run out of stock." Hu Bin, who entered the tavern, decisively took off his hood and revealed his elf face, as he showed his identity as the numberer.

After everyone was surprised, they turned around. Most of the taverns were numberers, and even the old bars were old. The indigenous people had already gone to other places to take refuge. Only these guys who were afraid of heaven and earth dared to stay here. They were here to participate in the war.

"Hey, man, do I have beer here? Come here to sit down." A numberer with slutty hair sent an invitation to Hu Bin.

"My honor!" Hu Bin didn't feel pretentious and sat directly on the empty seat of the table.

"For, although the ale from the Aboriginal people tastes good, I still like to drink the space produced. Everyone calls me Qiao, and the lady around me is Lin, what do you call me?"

"Thank you, my name is Reed!" Hu Bin grabbed the beer bottle and threw a purse to Qiao.

"Haha, don't mind if I ask some questions. Your appearance is so conspicuous. What can I do?" Qiao asked curiously, and even Lin, who was wearing a mask and a cloak next to her, looked over curiously.

"It's nothing. I joined the elves camp and ended up trapped in the shelter. I knew I had just run out with the army not long ago and had eaten up all the supplies in the package for so long. Do you know what the elves are eating? I feel like I'm going crazy if I stay there." After Hu Bin said that, he took a sip of wine. He did not answer Qiao's question head-on, and Qiao just smiled.

"I need a numberer who is a traveler profession to help you rush the road, and you can get a lot of rewards. Maybe you can win the favorable tasks of the elves. How about it, are you interested?" Hu Bin said his purpose straight out of the way. He was not clear about the current situation of the numberers, so he could only use this method to cover up his lack of information.

Lin and Qiao looked at each other. They were quite interested in this mission. The numbers nearby knew that there was only one place where there was the power of the elves, that is, the elves reinforcements that were rushing to the Holy Helmet Valley.

"I am a traveler profession, but I want to see what you can pay first." Lin said in an unexpected and crisp voice.

"Hehe, I'm afraid you won't take the bait." Hu Bin took out the regular dry food in the package with a slight wicked smile.

"I'll go, Lambas!" A numberer at the nearby table widened his eyes and exclaimed, attracting everyone's eyes to Hu Bin.

"Trade." Qiao quickly snatched Lambas from Hu Bin's hand and looked at the attributes, then decisively took over the task.

The two horses were running one by one and one behind on the way toward the Holy Helmet Valley. Hu Bin and two other numberers were chasing the expeditionary army along the marks left by the elves. Hu Bin also took this time to learn about the current numberer's situation from Qiao, who was sitting behind him.

From Qiao, Hu Bin learned that there were about 700 numberers entering the Lord of the Rings World this time, but only a few of them experienced the battle of the alliance that spanned time and space and successfully survived to the end. These lucky people will gain a great advantage from the beginning, and can easily obtain titles and territory in the two major kingdoms of mankind. They can also issue some tasks to other numberers to promote the development of the territory through noble channels. These numberers are called bosses in the circle.

There are also some numberers who randomly get the opportunity to become non-human races, such as high orcs, dwarves, hobbits, etc. These numberers have more or less obtained some racial talents, but the choice of the camp is limited, and Hu Bin also belongs to such numberers. They have no special titles, but they usually attract the attention of numberers because they all have specialties of their own race.

But most numberers are still ordinary numberers who are mixed on the mainland. These numberers generally use mercenaries as their professions, wander around several places in the main plot, gain benefits through taverns and lord tasks, and sometimes launch some adventures. The variables encountered by the Ring Guardians in Moria were caused by them. This type of adventurer is not without strong people, but lacks certain opportunities. They often form two or three people to explore together, and call themselves adventurers or mercenaries.

Qiao and Lin met in this world. They formed a team by chance and had been together for more than half a year. They spent most of their time mingling between bars and cities. Over time, they have accumulated a lot of fame, which is of the medium level among mercenary numberers.

But the Lord of the Rings World is not a safe place. More than 700 numberers who entered the world died in an accident. If it weren't for the fact that several powerful numberers had revealed some common sense that numberers needed to master, it would be no wonder that all of these numberers died. After all, the world of high demons is still very dangerous for them. Maybe a powerful indigenous people would kill the numberers here, and it would no longer be a simple task world where they could do whatever they wanted before.

However, external pressure and internal coordination have not eliminated the reduction of numberers. Many numberers died unexpectedly during missions and adventures. A few numberers who joined the dark camp will attack the numberers of the human camp from time to time. The two sides will have a conflict of scale every once in a while. On one side of the human side, there are indigenous knights and various human warriors to hire, but the dark camp can also obtain a lot of orc command from mission rewards. In the early stage, the human side relied on the large number of people and had an absolute advantage, but with the development of the main plot, the situation was slowly reversed.

As the first large-scale battle in the main plot, the Battle of the Holy Helmet Valley must have attracted many human camp numberers to join the war. Qiao and Lin are also one of these numberers. Most of them have received the task of exploring the movements of Saruman's army and are scattered on the route of the strong orc army. They can then return to the Holy Helmet Valley before the war begins with the speed of horses, or join the cavalry reinforcements that arrived later to fight. Compared with Hu Bin, they have higher freedom.

"Is there any news about the numberers of the Dark Camp?" Hu Bin wanted to learn more about the situation of the numberers of the hostile camp.

"No, those people are not very sociable, they usually act alone, and even their accomplices in their own camp are wary of it."

Although we have a large number of numberers to support, these numberers generally want to join the cavalry coming from behind. It is too dangerous to be surrounded in the Holy Helmet Valley. Everyone knows that in the original ending of this battle, the soldiers in the Holy Helmet Valley were almost dead, and only a few numbers who think they have the strength will join the Holy Helmet Valley defenders.

Hu Bin did not think that the numberers of the Dark Camp would give up this opportunity. In the Battle of Holy Helmet Valley, Saruman's side actually had a great advantage. They had an absolute advantage in numbers, a quality advantage of a strong orc army, and a powerful siege weapon such as explosives. Later, the defeat of the Saruman's army was because the strong orcs could not fight for a long time, the soldiers were exhausted and suffered heavy casualties, and were caught off guard by the sudden cavalry. In fact, if the strong orcs were prepared, the cavalry would not defeat them so easily, and even if they were victorious, they would suffer heavy injuries.

Half a day later, Hu Bin took Qiao and Lin to catch up with the resting elves Expeditionary Force. Hardir did not have much objection to the arrival of the two humans. After all, this was the helper Hu Bin found, and their purpose this time was to help humans.

With Lin's skill, the marching speed of the Elf Expeditionary Force increased slightly, but this little improvement gave the soldiers of the Expeditionary Force who were close to collapse more rest time, and insisted on reaching the Holy Helmet Valley during the marching.

Finally, on the evening of the third day after Lin joined, the Expeditionary Force finally saw the gate of the Holy Helmet Valley, and they arrived all day earlier than the strong orc army.

As the sound of the horns of the elves sounded, there was a commotion on the wall of the Holy Helmet Valley, and then the city gate slowly opened. Under the leadership of Hardir, two hundred elves warriors lined up in an orderly manner and slowly drove into the castle. Although they were all exhausted and dusty, they still maintained the unique arrogance of the elves in front of humans, and used neat movements to interpret what the elves legion is to other humans.

A slightly old human nobleman wearing a crown came out, probably King Rohan Shiyoudon. Hardir and King Shiyoudon were having a cordial conversation, but Aragon and others who arrived later interrupted the greetings.

Aragon welcomed Hardir's arrival with a kind hug, and Hardir seemed a little uncomfortable. Legolas, who was following behind, nodded to him, while the dwarf Jinli let out a "hum".

Hardir revealed Hu Bin behind him, and Hu Bin was quickly touched by surprise by Alagon.

"You are here too, boy, we heard from Gandalf that you actually helped him defeat the Fire Demon." Jin Li also wanted to touch Hu Bin's head, but Hu Bin stood up straight and pretended that he was not the same person.

"We can fight together again." Legolas stretched out his right hand and clenched it tightly with Hu Bin.

Arranged the soldiers to rest as soon as possible, Hu Bin followed Qiao and Lin to circle the Holy Helmet Valley. Although the Holy Helmet Valley is not small, most of the space is occupied by fortifications and soldiers, which seems a bit crowded. However, Hu Bin knew that only such a layout could effectively resist the enemy's attack, so he even decided to learn from some Holy Helmet Valley's architectural structures to transform his inner city.

The atmosphere in the Holy Helmet Valley was not good. These civilians who abandoned their homes and were forced here all contained sadness. All the strong men were summoned to the defenders, including some teenagers who had been on the battlefield for the first time. Hu Bin looked at the childish faces, obviously with fear. He couldn't help but sigh, hoping that the numberer's joining could alleviate the decline in the Holy Helmet Valley and save more indigenous people.

The reinforcements of the Elf tribe arrived at the Holy Helmet Valley, injecting a powerful shot into the human defenders, which made them again show a glimmer of hope when they were originally in a trough. Those disciplined elves warriors made them feel a sense of security. The alliance had not given up on themselves, and they could not give up on themselves. Compared with the depression of the indigenous people, the numberers were very good at distinguishing between each other. They were fully equipped, looked strong and confident, and it was no wonder that the guys who dared to come to join the city guard must be very confident in their strength, but there were also guys with some gambling mentality to make up for the numbers.

Qiao and Lin are numberers who are somewhat confident in their strength. They have only used the initial space once in their previous adventures, but they understand that if they don’t fight in Holy Helmet Valley, there will be no room for play in other large battles that cost 100,000 people. It is better to rely on the defensive advantages of Holy Helmet Valley to kill more powerful orcs, which can not only earn military achievements but also complete side missions. After Saruman is defeated, the strong orcs will definitely disappear. If the numberer who wants to complete the first side mission must kill 30 strong orcs in the Holy Helmet Valley battle.

Military merits are something that only owns in the human camp and the Saruman camp. Numberers can obtain them by completing tasks or killing enemy soldiers. With these military merits, they can apply for military positions from the king and exchange them for some very useful props. Military vocations can not only mobilize some human soldiers, but also receive some tasks with higher rewards. The treatment is comparable to nobles at all levels, but there is no territory, but few people can pile up military positions very high.

During the Battle of Holy Helmet Valley, the space issued unlimited plot tasks to all camps. Any numberer who had killed a strong orc in this battle will be given some random props as a reward based on the performance of the numberer.

Hu Bin joined the elf camp and could not access the military merit system of the human camp, but the benefits he gained from the elf clan were definitely beyond the imagination of other numberers, and he didn't care about these gains and losses.

I don’t know if the space interferes, but King Hiyotun actually set up an area for these numberers who were supposedly mercenaries and warriors. When Hu Bin came here, it was already very lively. Most of these people were numberers and followers, and a few were noble private soldiers of boss-type numberers. Adhering to the common problem of numberers, as long as there are places where they gather, it will become a grocery market and bar. There is no conditions here, so the numberers simply sat on the ground, holding drinks produced in various spaces and making noises, which even the natives who watched them nearby alleviated a lot of fear.

"Hey, look at who is coming!" Qiao saw Hu Bin's arrival and came forward to meet him.

"This is our friend." Lin followed closely and forced several guys who wanted to come up and show their gratitude.

Hu Bin and the Elf Army were seen by many people when he entered the city, and he seemed to have a good relationship with several important figures. Even if he was in the Elf camp, the numberers were eager to make friends with this guy and wanted to get some benefits from him. Qiao Helin exchanged the extra Lambas with these people for a lot of good things.

"It seems that I'm here at the right time! Sorry, I'm not here to find you, I'm here to do business. I know the purpose of you two, but I'm sorry, my business does not require a middleman."

Hu Bin said something that made Qiao very embarrassed. He walked to the open space that everyone gave out for him, spread out his cloak, and placed the items to be sold one by one in exhibition mode.

Everyone was attracted by his actions and formed a circle. As the first item was released from Hu Bin, each item would cause a burst of exclamation.

"This is Lambas. I spent a lot of money to get half a piece from the indigenous people that was about to expire. I didn't expect to see it here. It's worthy of being a guy who joined the Elf clan. I'm so envious." A numberer sighed bitterly.

"What a delicate weapon, is this the standard weapon of the elves? I have heard that these weapons are very exquisite and much sharper than those in my hands." When the bronze long sword dagger and other weapons were taken out by Hu Bin, many people became very interested in this weapon.

After a secret talk with Hu Bin, a numberer handed Hu Bin a small bag, then took away an elf sword, then drew out his own sword, and attacked the two swords hard together. With a crisp sound, the original sword was easily cut off, and there was only a gap on the elf sword. The numberer showed heartache, took out the whetstone produced in the space, carefully wiped the gap on the sword, and slowly pushed it behind, ignoring the broken weapons on the ground.

A numberer next to him picked up the broken sword and looked at it. He found that the quality is not low and it was well maintained. He put it away and could continue to use it if he returned to the space.

Everyone's attention was retracted from the broken sword, and then he looked at the weapons with more scorching eyes, and Hu Bin received more secret words in an instant.

"What do you mean to say in person?" Hu Bin ignored those secret words, looked around with contempt, took out another item.

"No, you are willing to take this out?" The numberers around were talking. Hu Bin took out the tendons obtained from the water monster. Its attributes were very strong, but as a consumable, it was not very useful to Hu Bin. Taking it out and shaking these numberers is also a good choice. Maybe it can lead to a lot of good things.

Hu Bin did not rush to price the price, and put the next item on the scorching eyes of everyone. This was a rare weapon. He originally wanted to use it for Ent, but Ent said that he used it like a rolling pin, so he asked Hu Bin to put it out.
Chapter completed!
