Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth.

Chapter 227 Rematch with Saruman

Upon hearing Moreda's words, Dui and Romisdanu felt uneasy.

The next second, the giant bats that had been attacking stopped their assault and circled around the tower, completely surrounding it and emitting a series of piercing, dizzying ultrasonic waves.

Dui and Romisdanu looked pained, as if their heads and internal organs were about to explode.

Dui gritted his teeth and quickly cast a soundproof spell to envelop himself, Romisdanu, and Morida before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

But the giant bat's ultrasonic attacks grew stronger and stronger, causing cracks to appear in the surrounding towers and stone walls, which were rapidly disintegrating.

Romisdanu quickly reminded him, "Duir, sound the victory horn!"

Upon hearing Romisdanu's words, Dui quickly pulled out his horn and blew it loudly.

In an instant, just like the rising sun or the thunder of spring, a loud and bright horn sounded throughout Minas Harad!

The Victory Horn released powerful sound waves that not only canceled out the giant bats' ultrasonic waves, but also rendered them instantly deaf, as if they were blind, unable to distinguish directions or objects, and blindly bumping their heads.

Upon hearing the horn, both the Harads and the Orcs lost their courage and were gripped by fear. They couldn't even lift their weapons and fled in panic.

Seeing this, Dui was about to Apparate away with Romistanu and Morida, but his expression changed and he became serious.

Because he discovered he could no longer Apparate!

This situation is remarkably similar to when Saruman was hunting him down.

At the same time, the surrounding air suddenly turned icy cold, and darkness and fear spread.

Three Ringwraiths emerged from the darkness, emanating a powerful and terrifying aura, surrounding and pressuring from three sides.

At the same time, a corrupted flying beast flew in from afar, and Saruman's figure appeared on its back.

Saruman looked at Romisdanu and Dui in the broken tower and a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Aha! Let me see who I've met! I only wanted to catch a big fish, but I didn't expect such a pleasant surprise!"

Saruman's eyes were full of malice as he stared intently at Dui.

"Black-robed wizard Duir, how is my stay at Osankta? I've been thinking day and night about how to get you into my hands and torture you to vent my anger, but I never expected you to deliver yourself to my doorstep!"

"Saruman, you actually colluded with Sauron to harm Moreda! Have you forgotten your mission?" Romisdanu saw the staff in Saruman's hand, which was none other than his friend Moreda's, and was immediately filled with anger and disappointment.

When they first arrived in Middle-earth, the two blue-robed wizards also traveled to the East with Saruman. After staying in the East for a while, Saruman returned to the West, so it can be said that they had a good relationship.

The current calamity that Moreda is suffering must be partly due to Saruman's machinations.

After all, only Saruman knew them so well, knew their methods, and knew how to deal with them.

Saruman responded to Romisdanu's accusations with a cold laugh, completely unconcerned.

"Mission? My mission is to gain power and strength, and become the master of this world!"

"You want to become the ruler of the world? What about Sauron? Do you want to replace Sauron?" Dui mocked.

Saruman ignored Dui's instigation and ordered the Ringwraiths, "Go and deal with the other blue-robed wizard!"

Then he stared at Dui with a cold gaze, a hint of mockery and contempt in his eyes.

"As for this black-robed wizard, I'll deal with him."

Upon hearing this, the three Ringwraiths raised their weapons of Mogul and swiftly transformed into three black shadows, attacking Romisdanus.

Saruman, on the other hand, was pressing Dui forward.

As for Morida in blue robes, he had already been tortured to the point of exhaustion, and his staff had been taken from him, so he posed no threat to combat power at all.

Romistanu stood guard around Moreda, brandishing his staff as he fought the three Ringwraiths.

The Ringwraiths already possessed immense power, and now, wielding the Nine Rings of Man, their strength increased several times over, unleashing terrifying dark magic, and their Mogul Blades were deadly with every strike.

For a time, the two sides were evenly matched in terms of combat strength.

Dui is under no less pressure than Romisdanu, and perhaps even more.

"Avada Kedavra!" Dui unleashed a killing curse, but Saruman blocked it with a piece of gravel.

Dui's attacks continued relentlessly, unleashing a barrage of magical spells, dazzling magical light flashing incessantly, and crackling explosions echoing throughout the area.

The massive, sturdy tower was gradually destroyed and teetering on the brink of collapse amidst the aftershocks of their battle.

Saruman easily blocked Dui's various magical attacks, and said with a mocking smile, "Your little tricks can't do anything to me, black-robed brat. If you don't have any other tricks up your sleeve, you can stay here today!"

As he spoke, he unleashed a massive, scorching fireball, which hurtled toward Dui.

Dui used the Ironclad Charm to block, but the fireball exploded like a giant TNT bomb, producing a force even greater than the Thunderclap Explosion Charm, sending flames soaring into the sky.

The top floor of the tower was instantly destroyed and flattened by the explosion, shortening it considerably. At the center of the blast, a sturdy magical shield protected Dui, Romisdanu, and Moreda.

A golden ring appeared on Dui's right middle finger, releasing a powerful magical barrier that blocked Saruman's attack.

"My Ring of Power!" Saruman spotted the ring on Dui's hand at a glance, his eyes immediately turning red as he gritted his teeth and said.

Then he attacked Dui relentlessly, trying to break through the shield and reclaim the power ring he had painstakingly crafted.

However, the ring was already filled with magic by Dui, and with the power of the Ring of Power itself, Saruman would have no chance of breaking the shield as long as the magic was not exhausted.

At the current rate of consumption, Dui estimates that it can last at least a day.

But Dui couldn't let it continue to deplete the magic in the ring. He looked at the crumbling tower, then at Saruman riding on the back of the Fallen Beast, and picked up the Victory Horn and blew it.

As the horns sounded, the Ringwraiths' momentum weakened, and Saruman, as if hearing a huge noise, couldn't help but cover his ears; while the Fallen Beasts were even more restless, almost knocking Saruman away.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dui unleashed another dazzling killing spell.

Saruman had just been thrown off balance by the fallen flying beast beneath him when he saw Dui's Killing Curse coming at him.

They immediately used magic to block it.

But he did not expect that Dui's target this time was not him, but his mount, the Fallen Flying Beast.

The Killing Curse struck the Fallen Flying Beast directly. Before it could even let out a scream, it died instantly. Its body paused briefly in the air before plummeting to the ground.

Saruman was not as old as he appeared; his body was exceptionally agile and strong. The moment the fallen flying beast crashed down, he quickly leaped off the beast and landed steadily on the tower.

Before he could even catch his breath, Dui activated the Ring of Power, grabbed his staff, and slammed it down hard on the tower floor.

As a tremendous impact spread throughout the tower, huge cracks quickly appeared, and then the tower could no longer hold on, completely cracking and collapsing.

Everyone lost their support and plummeted to the ground along with the collapsing tower.

With a deafening roar, Minas Harad trembled, and the Harad people and orcs who came down from the tower and were unable to escape were crushed to death.

During the rapid descent, Dui's magical shield remained firmly protecting him, Romisdanu, and Moreda, and just before hitting the ground, they floated down slowly like a light balloon.

The three Ringwraiths, being spirits, were unaffected.

But Saruman actually fell from a height of several hundred meters.

Even so, Saruman did not die; aside from being in a very sorry state, he did not suffer any minor injuries.

Dui was secretly astonished when he saw Saruman's physical abilities.

Saruman knocked away a piece of rock that had hit him, and stood up with a bruised and swollen face, his colorful robes now covered in dust and gravel.

His eyes were filled with rage and murderous intent. "Duir, you deserve to die! Today is your death day!"

As he spoke, he raised his staff to the sky, and the sky changed color. A thick bolt of lightning struck down, and with a flick of the staff, it fell directly towards Dui.

A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket collided with Dui's magical shield, instantly flashing with lightning and exploding with a deafening crackling sound.

The magical shield released by the Ring of Power successfully blocked the lightning.

But Dui's mood turned heavy, because the lightning attack had caused the magic stored in the Ring of Power to drain away several times faster.

If this continues, the shield that could originally last a day will probably collapse completely in half a day or even less.

Then that will truly be his death day!
Dui made a quick decision: to unleash the Fiery Blaze, just as he had done before, to burn down the entire city of Minas Harad, hoping to destroy the anti-Apparition barrier.

Dui unleashed a raging inferno, which quickly spread in all directions. Wherever it went, all flammable materials, including Harads and orcs, were instantly devoured, and then a giant dragon of fire was formed.

But when Saruman saw Fiendfire appear, he snorted coldly, waved his staff, and released a magical shockwave that slammed the incoming Fiendfire dragon away.

Then, chanting an ancient incantation, he summoned a tornado.

The tornado grew larger and larger, whipping up clouds of yellow sand and quickly engulfing Li Huo within it. Even the giant dragon that Li Huo had conjured was trapped inside the tornado.

The fiery dragon tried to struggle, but it couldn't break free from the tornado's grip. It was even covered by yellow sand, and the fire quickly dwindled until it was completely extinguished.

In the raging tornado, the yellow sand turned into sharp weapons comparable to bullets, riddling the Harads and Orcs who were caught in the whirlwind with holes.

But Saruman didn't care about that and controlled the tornado to attack Dui directly.

Dui held onto the magic shield tightly, gripping the ground firmly to resist the tornado's suction.

But the terrifying tornado blew away even the surrounding megalithic buildings. Dui didn't last long before he, along with Romisdanu and Morida, who were protected by shields, were sucked into the tornado.

In an instant, the world spun around them. Protected by the magical shield, they were like ants in a balloon, being carried around by the tornado, spinning wildly. Countless grains of yellow sand were also rapidly striking the shield, making a series of loud thumping sounds.

Amidst the howling wind, Dui felt as if he were inside a washing machine drum, constantly being tossed up and down, feeling dizzy and on the verge of vomiting.
