The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

"Sign in successfully! Congratulations to the host for getting Ranger of Lordaeron*50!"

"Holy shit! Has it been shipped? Departed from the European Union?" Roland rubbed his eyes. You must know that he has signed for more than ten days of miscellaneous items, and very few of them can be used. Suddenly, a unit reward appeared for Roland. Still a little surprised.

However, after Roland saw clearly the types of troops this time, he suddenly showed an unlucky look...

"This magical horse thing? I thought it was the Knight of Lordaeron! The Ranger of Lordaeron is useless!" Roland wailed like a defeated dog.

The Principality of Lordaeron is located in the forest at the eastern corner of the Inland Sea of ​​Rune. The entire forest belongs to the fiefdom of the Duke of Lordaeron. The most famous thing about Lordaeron is that almost all of their races are half-elves, a blend of elves and humans. With their unique characteristics, they produce knights, rangers and archers who are famous in the mainland...

The Knights of Lordaeron are actually not particularly strong among knights. Because they are half-elves, they reject heavy and bloated plate armor! Instead, he chose lightweight mail and chain armor. In the early days of the game, the soldiers produced by Lordaeron were called waste among wastes by players. The only one whose attributes were worth looking at, apart from the Knights of Lordaeron, was the Ranger of Lordaeron. , but the cost-effectiveness of Lordaeron Rangers is not high compared to ordinary lords. Although they can equip epee bucklers and plate and chain armor, their high price still dissuades most lord players. As for the Knights of Lordaeron... this unit was simply a tragedy in the early stage. In terms of frontal confrontation, it was not as good as the Lagrand Knights. In terms of defense, it was not as good as the Lagrand Knights (they never equipped plate armor for the sake of portability). In terms of speed... ...Well no one can outrun them. The only reason why they can stay in the player's sight is that they are the only unit in the game that can charge smoothly in the jungle. Their superb riding skills and excellent eyesight allow them to Able to gallop on horseback in the jungle and pick off enemies with a gun...

Until later, by chance, a player discovered the hidden inherited skills of the Knights of Lordaeron...

In the Lord of the Rings game, each named formal knighthood has its own inherited skills (Roland’s Holy Knights are not counted...) Knights in different regions have different advanced skills, and the Knights of Lordaeron They all inherit a secret skill - fight back!

In layman's terms, if they hold a lance in their hand, then when they use this skill, it will be a carbine, and if they have a bow and arrow, then they will fire back. This skill gives the Knights of Lordaeron the ability to counter-attack when charging. Therefore, during a battle, the player discovered that something was wrong when he discovered that the handsome army was chasing the Knights of Lordaeron and lost more troops than in a head-on confrontation. Just like that, Lordaeron The hidden skills of the Knights of Lordaeron were discovered by players. For a time, the Knights of Lordaeron went from being ignored by everyone to being sought after by everyone. Countless lords hoped to recruit a team of Knights of Lordaeron to serve as the last unit.

"Tsk tsk tsk! I think I was also a man who had a team of Lordaeron knights back then! That reverse charge was so powerful!" Roland couldn't help but fall into memories. Who would have thought that the knights who looked like they were fleeing would twist their upper bodies and wave their weapons in bloom? What about a shocking murderous intention?

"Forget it, just be a ranger. After all, it's a long-range unit." Roland shook his head and stopped thinking about these trivial things.

"Your Highness!" Radil interrupted Roland's fugue.

"Oh? Um...where did you say it?" Roland said embarrassedly. Because of the ups and downs of the Rangers of Lordaeron, Roland had no intention of paying attention to what Radil said.

"Nothing, Your Highness, I just heard that you still have a lot of Smaug's flesh and blood here, right?" Radil's eyes shone with a shrewd light.

"Uh..." Roland grinned and immediately understood that this old guy was probably interested in Smaug's flesh and blood. He didn't know who he heard from... Roland could only nod and admit that he still had Smaug's flesh and blood in his hand.

"Great! I'm worried that I don't have energy-rich monster flesh and blood to feed the griffins! A mutated giant flying dragon like Smaug should be enough for these five little guys to grow up!" Radil waved kindly towards the sky With a wave of his hand, a figure rushed back under Radil's robe like a gust of wind and lightning. It was the griffon cub who had just slipped out.

Roland suddenly became more playful. He leaned down and tilted his head to stare at the robe that the gryphon had just slipped into, trying to figure out how the mage's robe could be stuffed into such a big little guy. Unexpectedly, the next second a little eagle's head appeared. I also leaned out and looked up at the sky...

One griffon and the other looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. The little griffon looked at Roland's tilted head and turned its eyes to one side.

"Haha! How interesting! I didn't expect griffins to be so cute when they were young!" Roland smiled and his depression was gone.

"Yes! Who would have thought that in one year they would be able to fight all kinds of creatures!" Radil also stroked his beard and sighed.

"Then I won't bother you, Sir Radil. I'll be walking around the city..." Roland teased the little griffon for a while, and made the little griffon spin around his legs angrily while making eagle cries. , then Roland stopped bidding farewell to Radill and decided to take a closer look at his city.

"Goodbye, Your Highness!" Radil said goodbye to Roland with a mage salute.

…

"Come and take a look, take a look! Fresh Changhu white fish! Only 2 copper coins each! Come and have one, fellow villager?" the fish seller shouted heartily.

"Fresh mushrooms! Collected from the wilderness! Delicious! Rich in nutrients!" The women in the collection team also put out the game they found.

"High-quality charcoal! Small smoke, long burning time! One copper plate weighs 3 pounds!"

Although there are only more than 2,000 residents, the hard-working Raglan people have formed a lively market on the central avenue of Rapid City. Roland even discovered a tavern in it!

Roland pushed open the wooden door of the tavern and squeezed in. Suddenly, a wave of heat mixed with the smell of inferior wine came out of the shop. Roland was so stimulated that he closed his eyes. After a few seconds to adapt to the environment, Roland opened his eyes again and looked at this place. The only tavern in Rapid City.

"What a guy! It's really eye-catching!" Roland complained in his heart.

The tavern is not big. Compared with the large taverns in previous lives and even in the game that often started with tens of thousands of square meters, this tavern of less than 300 square meters seemed extremely crowded. Roland visually estimated that there were no less than a hundred people inside! There were even many familiar faces among them - they were all off-duty soldiers. A semi-circular bar is arranged at the inner end against the wall. The niches on the wall are filled with bottles of wine. A young woman is cleaning up at the bar and directing the waiters to work. Needless to say, she is There's a female boss here.

"Not bad! Can you actually open a tavern here?" After scanning the low-quality ale in the wine jar, Roland casually pulled up a high stool and sat in front of the woman.

"What does the guest need? Drink or eat..." The woman accidentally raised her head and glanced and was stunned.

"Your Highness...I didn't intentionally steal your wealth...I...paid taxes..." After the woman saw Roland's face clearly, she immediately knelt on the ground and crawled out of the bar. Strictly speaking, they did not have a business license issued by the lord. Doing so can be regarded as "stealing" the lord's wealth and can be punished by death.

"It's okay! Get up!" Roland waved his hand to show that he didn't care about this matter. He paid taxes anyway, so he can drive as much as he wants. Roland had a headache hearing about those miscellaneous rules such as drink franchises, as long as he didn't violate them. Law, Roland doesn't want to embarrass anyone.

"I don't mean to blame you, I'm just curious about where your drink comes from?" Roland looked at the woman in front of him curiously.
