Dragon of the Root

Chapter 9: Fights and leaves



Wu Ming and Cu Chulainn looked at each other. After the previous greeting, there was no other communication between the two. They only fought with spears and fought fiercely.

The two move quickly, appearing here for a while, fighting there for a while, wherever they fight, they seem to produce a whirlwind. The ground was ravaged to form a chasm, and originally was a green meadow. Now the ground was brown and some of the unique large trees in the meadow had fallen.

"I heard the teacher say that you are his best and most admired disciple. Looks like the teacher eyesight is wrong!" said Cu Chulainn suddenly.

"Oh~ it's rumored that you have entered the Land of Shadows and worship teacher Scathach as a teacher. It seems that you are my junior brother, Cu Chulainn," Wu Ming said.

"Yes, Senior Brother. Let me see who you are that teacher admires the most, what else can you do!"

*Clang*

Two people long spears, one silver and one red, collided again. Wu Ming had already seen clearly. Cu Chulainn took the cursed spear that was famous in the next generation – Gáe Bolg.

This spear is a cursed spear that reverses the nature of causality, meaning "cause and effect" in the order of things, to make it a cause that the "spear pierced" comes from the effect of "the opponent heart pierced" by it.

It determines the fate of the opponent only through its use, an always fatal move that pierces the heart with a single stab. It's also possible for him to activate it without actively attacking the heart, ordinary defense and evasion are meaningless no matter what you do. This effect is an attack on destiny itself.

As a symbol of the destruction of this world order, this weapon emitted an extraordinary magic power that made one feel extremely cold.

If Wu Ming had not had the sublimation Noble Phantasm, he might have fled when Cú Chulainn unleashed the cursed spear, but now Wu Ming had obtained the holy spear named Yggdrasil (Tree of Life).

Yggdrasil was a sublimated Noble Phantasm from the core of the World Tree. Compared to the spear from Gáe Bolg (Barbed Spear that Pierces with Death) the cursed magic spear made of sea monster bones, the Yggdrasil (Tree of Life) which didn't sound bad, in fact, Yggdrasil restrained Gáe Bolg in terms of stage position and attributes.

"You are very difficult, Silince." Cu Chulainn jumped back and laughed.

"You really are a tough opponent Silence to face!" Cu Chulainn jumped back, said with a smile.

"Ha ha ha ha! So are you, Cu Chulainn! It excites me!" Wu Ming said while laughing wildly.

"If it was you, it should have a Noble Phantasm." Cu Chulainn stood up straight and put the spear behind him.

"You also have it, Cu Chulainn, the cursed spear in your hand doesn't look ordinary." Wu Ming also stood up straight, carrying a spear behind him.

Then, both parties were silent for a few seconds.

"In that case! Do not die! Junior brother!"

"In that case! Do not die! Senior!"

Both sides took out their Noble 6 at the same time.

"Yggdrasil (Tree of Life)"

"Gáe Bolg (Barbed Spear that Pierces with Death)"

The silver-white holy spear pushed the violent aura of life forward.

The black and red cursed spear pushed a terrifying death aura forward.

The ends of the two weapons collided.

*Explosion------*

The visible air current centered at the intersection of the two, dividing the entire prairie in half.

The ground on Wu Ming side began to revive, the grass grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the few surviving saplings grew into large trees in an instant, full of vitality everywhere.

The ground on Cu Chulainn side became dead, the ground darkened at the speed of the naked eye, the only remaining green patch disappeared instantly, and the aura of death was everywhere.

Immediately after, the two diametrically opposite energies began to engulf and fuse with each other, but how did the two energies come together?

*Explosion--------*

A scene like a missile explosion was born.

At this moment, the prairie had turned from the green plains before into a terrifying scene with a huge hole in the center that was black and green.

At the edge of the huge pit, Wu Ming and Cu Chulainn were panting, and both of them had extremely excited smiles on their faces.

Wu Ming smiled because he found someone who could let go of his inner feelings, and Cu Chulainn found an opponent he could go all out against.

"As expected, Senior Brother! You can block Gáe Bolg. You are the first person I have seen who can block it." Cu Chulainn stood up, then turned around.

"Heh~ I am quite proud to be praised by the great Celtic hero Cu Chulainn~" Wu Ming eyes slowly returned to their normal black pupils.

"This battle is so fun~" Wu Ming also threw the spear and left.

.....

A month has passed, and the war between Connacht and Ulster is still going on, except now for an armistice.

King Eochu Feidlech of Ireland comes forward to make peace, so Connacht and Ulster must temporarily stop the war.

This is advantageous for Ulster.

In this month, every time Connacht and Ulster fought, Wu Ming and Cu Chulainn fought on the plain where they first fought, thanks to the fact that the plain had now become a basin.

Connacht army with a large number of homonculus consisted of Wu Ming blood which led to the fact that although Connacht also suffered heavy losses, Ulster losses were even more serious. Connacht is considered to have damaged the enemy by one thousand and five, and suffered eight losses.

If it continued like this, Ulster should be the losing squad in the end, but if it was to the end, Connacht situation wouldn't be much better.

Therefore, the Irish King Eochu Feidlech, Medb father, immediately stepped forward to mediate the war after fully understanding the situation.

Connacht currently occupies a third of Ulster territory. If not for Wu Ming being dragged away by Cu Chulainn, Ulster might have fallen before King Eochu Feidlech mediation.

A camp in the Ulster area occupied by Connacht.

Wu Ming was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed. He is meditating.

Wu Ming discovered that he would enter this meditative state as long as he calmed down now.

As if it was the effect of the "Dragon Transformation", Wu Ming discovered that his current mental strength was getting better and better, and his recovery ability was getting better and better. Be it physical strength, mental strength, magic power or injuries, he could recover quickly.

Therefore, apart from daily practice, Wu Ming would enter a meditative state when there was nothing else to do.

After a while, a girl with a slightly queen-like temperament entered. She sat quietly beside Wu Ming and looked at him.

"Medb, how was the war?" Wu Ming opened his eyes and said.

"Royal father extended the time of the truce." Medb usual smile appeared on his face.

"Medb, may I go?" Wu Ming asked.

Medb knew in his heart that this extended time meant that war could not be waged. The armistice before the war is actually the end of the war.

Wu Ming guessed this outcome was planned by Medb. His goal was to delay his departure.

"Medb, listen to me…" Wu Ming told Medb about his birth and experiences. Seeing Medb shocked face, Wu Ming felt a little more at ease.

"Who told you to set me up." Wu Ming thought so.

"Then will we meet again in the future, little Sil, no Wu Ming." Medb looked at Wu Ming with straight eyes,

"We will definitely meet again, trust me"

Wu Ming just wanted to go out and explore Ireland, or Great Britain on the opposite side, he would come back again if he had the chance.

Moreover, Medb will definitely become a Heroic Spirit in this Type-Moon world. That's not bullshit. As an important figure in the history of the Cattle Raid of Cooley, how could she not become a Heroic Spirit.

"Good, agreed."

"Un, agreed."

With this, Wu Ming left Connacht and went elsewhere in Ireland, but something unexpected always happened. Wu Ming embarked on another adventure in another world.
