Settle the Wreckage
Instant
Exile all attacking creatures target player controls. That player may search their library for that many basic land cards, put those cards onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
There was a hiss, a gushing whirl, and then silence. And that was the end of Smaug and Esgaroth.
