Chapter 614: The Terrifying Ghost Army
Eomer died under the war elephants of the Hadrin people. King Theoden was grief-stricken after seeing this scene. What made him even more angry was that he had not seen any trace of Aragorn and others until now!
Just when the Rohan cavalry was about to be annihilated by the Hadrin people, a flood-like torrent army came from the direction of the port!
The yellow-green torrent swept in, and Aragorn was the leader!
Behind him followed the Gondorians, and on both sides were the ghost army guarding. The approaching orcs and Hadrin people were ruthlessly killed and chopped to the ground!
Wherever these ghost legions that had been sealed for three thousand years passed, life was cut off, even weeds and passing lizards were not spared, just like the four horsemen of the apocalypse spreading death. ♦♦ ♦♦
The orc army had the courage to resist until they saw their companions died without any chance of fighting back. Their attacks were like nothingness to these ghosts, but the ghosts' attacks on them ignored defense and directly hit the real damage of the soul. Who can bear this?
The orc army was quickly defeated. They were fearless, but the premise was that they could cause damage to the other side, not this one-sided situation where there was no chance of survival.
Before the Hadrin people could react, this group of ghosts that ignored gravity and were extremely fast had already rushed into their army.
Although the Hadrin people had extremely sturdy mammoths, which were indestructible and indestructible, they were completely blinded by the ghost army. The ghost army was not afraid of the heavy blows of the mammoths at all, and they ignored any physical attacks.
The overwhelming ghosts even overturned the mammoths, which wailed wildly and fell to the ground and never got up again.
The ghosts ignored its flesh and blood obstacles and drilled into its flesh and blood from its hard skin. Then the mammoths experienced the pain of being cut into pieces. They wailed and fell to the ground, and then wailed and turned into corpses, with their long trunks raised like the arms of drowning people struggling to stretch out of the water.
"Aragorn!"
King Theoden was in a complicated mood and didn't know what to say. If Aragorn and his men had come earlier, Eomer wouldn't have died.
"I'm sorry, I'm late."
Aragorn already knew about Eomer's death, and he felt sad. After all, Eomer was a good friend. But since he knew about it, the Hadrin people must not let him go!
The power shown by the ghost army really shocked Aragorn. The people of Rohan and Gondor hid three feet in fear, fearing that they would be killed by this group of ghost army.
The 200,000 orc army and the 30,000 Hadrin people were just wheat waiting to be harvested in front of the ghost army that was crushing withering and rotten.
These yellow-green horror ghosts bared their teeth, roared with fangs and sharp teeth, and the battlefield with blood and flesh, corpses everywhere, was really ferocious and terrifying.
Sauron was very angry when he saw this scene, but he could do nothing because his power was limited and could not reach the Palano Plain. Otherwise, these ghost armies would be a new army for Sauron, who was known as "The Necromancer".
This was probably the reason why Aragorn did not drive the ghost army to Mount Doom in the original plot. That was simply to send warmth to Sauron.

Chang Wei was puzzled. Since there was such a powerful army as the ghost army, why didn't Sauron, the necromancer, do it himself?
It was just a very simple curse. Aragorn's ancestors could do it, so there was no reason why Sauron couldn't do it. You know, this curse lasted for three thousand years after Aragorn's ancestors died, and Sauron was still alive.
The commander of the Orc army, Gothmo, soon died under the sword of the ghost army, completely announcing the defeat of the Orc army and the Hadrin army.
The ghost army dispersed and did not continue to hunt down the remaining orcs. They came to Aragorn under the leadership of the ghost king.
The war on the Palano Plains was over. The orc army and the Hadrin army had been defeated. Less than one-tenth of the remaining scattered escaped. It was impossible to continue to form a resistance force and threat. Therefore, the ghost army felt that they had exceeded their oath.
The half-skeleton face of the ghost king looked at Aragorn, and Aragorn looked at the two green, burning flames in his eye sockets.
He stared at Aragorn, and the ghosts behind him also looked at this place with such anxious and cold eyes.
The atmosphere of the entire battlefield changed.
"Aragorn!"
The people of the Lord of the Rings expedition, the Rohan people, and Gandalf all stood beside Aragorn. They would not let Aragorn face such a situation alone.
Aragorn was grateful, but he did not say much. At this time, anything he said would be pale and powerless.
With the support of his comrades and companions, Aragorn did not retreat. He was ready to face everything without fear.
The Ghost King felt the oppression brought by Gandalf and Chang Wei, and he lowered his head slightly.
"Please keep your oath, King of Gondor, holder of the holy sword Anduril! Descendant of Isildur! King Aragorn!"
Aragorn paused, and the ghost army fell into a dead silence. They were also worried that Aragorn was unwilling to fulfill his oath. In that case, they had no way to do anything. After all, Aragorn was the only one who could restrain them.
Even if they kill Aragorn, it will be useless, and they will never be able to get rid of it.
It can be said that the ghost army is now in a dilemma. They can only hope that Aragorn will fulfill his oath, rather than coveting the terrible combat power of their ghost army.
But Aragorn will not do so. He knows very well that although the ghost army is powerful, he must not indulge in the power of the ghost army, because this is nothingness. The real power should be the people of Gondor!
If Chang Wei came, he would not think so. He is a pragmatist. The ghost army is so useful that it is not bad to leave it to future generations as a trump card.
So he is not Aragorn, and he can't become Aragorn.
Aragorn drew out the holy sword Anduril, and the ghost king and the ghosts suddenly became agitated. The ghost king's desire even made the two green flames burn more vigorously.
"Go, you have fulfilled the oath you made three thousand years ago. So, I, Aragorn, the King of Gondor, the holder of the holy sword Anduril, the descendant of Isildur, will fulfill my oath with you in my name. Go, rest in peace, and be free!"
