Dragon of the Root

"I… only thought of my compatriot, Homunculus," said Sieg seriously.

"Then let's go~" Astolfo smiled and pulled Sieg up.

"But then you will be found by your Master." Sieg didn't like letting Astolfo go back to his Master again, because Astolfo had been complaining about how bad and how abnormal his Master was, and so on.

"It's fine, and I'm still a Servant in the black faction. Let's first observe the red and black faction starting the war. At that time, I will support the black faction and you will save your compatriots. Isn't this the best way for both sides."

Sieg saw Astolfo smile and couldn't help but smile.

"Yes! Rider, I leave it to you."

"Oh! Leave it to me!"

With this, as if it was a game of fate, the two of them took action after seeing the great sky city fly into the grasslands of the Millennia Fortress, they judged that the Red and Black factions were fighting.

...

Wu Ming, who was accompanied by Jeanne, was waiting for the start of this war.

Wu Ming and Jeanne stood on the side of the meadow, looking at the huge fortress floating in the air.

"That… Hanging Garden!?" Jeanne <True Name Discernment> skill came into play, and she was able to find out this Noble Phantasm real name by surprise.

"This is really bad fate," said Wu Ming.

Although not in the same period, after all, this is Babylon architecture, and Wu Ming can't help but feel a little emotional.

"The master of the red faction must be there, let's find a way to enter." After saying that, Jeanne was about to act.

"Wait, Jeanne." Wu Ming reached out and picked up the braid made from Jeanne hair.

"Kyaa!" Jeanne screamed and knelt on the ground.

"Hug… sorry, I didn't mean it that way."

Wu Ming looked at Jeanne who was kneeling on the ground, holding her head with tears in her eyes, and quickly apologized, reaching out to help Jeanne up.

"Really, Soderlake, you are still so rude, can't you be gentle." Jeanne grabbed Wu Ming hand and stood up.

"Do you have a way to go to Hanging Garden." Wu Ming quickly changed the subject.

"This..." Jeanne blushed and stopped talking, she was also anxious now, and she didn't even think about how to enter the Hanging Garden in the sky.

"Still the same as before." Wu Ming smiled helplessly, and stretched out his hand to take out a wing-shaped pendant from the golden ripples.

"Here, wear this." Wu Ming stretched out his hand and handed it to Jeanne.

After Jeanne picked it up, she checked the effect of this pendant with <True Name Discernment>.

"I can actually gain the ability to fly, and I only need to cast a spell, even ordinary people can use it!?"

Jeanne couldn't believe it. After all, this kind of Magecraft item is generally inconvenient and without magic power, this item can be used by ordinary people without magic power. How this didn't surprise Jeanne.

Is this a game? There are definitely items that don't have to pay any price, like this pendant that allows people to fly in the game.

This was a high-level item that Guild Master Ainz Ooal Gown bought at a high price and could be used without magic or experience points.

"Un~ this is one of the Noble Phantasms I obtained by defeating the Evil Dragon." Wu Ming told the lie he made up without batting an eye.

"So how about you?" Asked Jeanne.

"Un~ I only have one."

This is the truth. There is only one of these pendants. Even though Wu Ming was able to use <Create Greater Item> to create it, he was still unable to use this skill due to his class limitation.

(Looks like the Caster class suits me.) Wu Ming thought in his heart.

"Okay, then I'll go alone. Careful. Also, don't take part in the battle between the two sides, got it!" Jeanne said to Wu Ming quite seriously.

"Yes! Saintess-sama, I understand~" Wu Ming replied with Jeanne in a strange way.

"Really~" Jeanne cheeks turned red, and she no longer cared about Wu Ming.

She put on the pendant, cast the <FLY> spell told by Wu Ming, and his body floated.

"Wow, I really fly."

After adapting for a while, Jeanne said to Wu Ming.

"Then I'll go first."

"Um."

There weren't many words, as both of them trusted each other.

After seeing Jeanne fly away, Wu Ming said boredly.

"So, what should I do now, watch the battle?"

Holding this thought, Wu Ming found a large rock and sat down.

Watching the two sides start to line up.

The warrior in the red faction was the Dragon Tooth Warrior who was transformed by the dragon tooth dropped from the Hanging Garden. Except for the head that resembled a broken dragon-headed skeleton, it was almost the same as the skeleton warrior from Nazarick.

Looking at the Black faction again, as Wu Ming expected, it was a large group of Homunculus and Golem.

Seeing the Homunculus, Wu Ming thought of Sieg again.

"I don't know what happened to Sieg and Astolfo, but with Sieg in mind, maybe he will return to Millennia Fortress to save his compatriot."

Speaking of Sieg, Wu Ming couldn't help but think of Siegfried.

"Ahhh~ I didn't expect the Dragon Slayer hero Siegfried to be such a person."

"By the way, I always feel very uncomfortable when fighting Siegfried. The feeling of being a natural enemy is because Siegfried is a Dragon Slayer."

Wu Ming couldn't help but remember that when fighting Siegfried, there was always a special feeling that was transmitted to Wu Ming. Even though it had a slight effect on him, it felt very uncomfortable.

At this moment, a large number of ripples appeared above the Hanging Garden, and countless arrows shot out from it, directly hitting the Homunculus and Golem troops.

"Is that the Noble Phantasm Red Archer? Even though each arrow doesn't do much damage, it's hard to tell once it's stacked."

After that, a large amount of green electric current hit the array of arrows, scattering them.

"Is that another Noble Phantasm?"

Immediately after, a large number of iron stakes pierced through the number of Dragon Tooth Warriors.

"That's Noble Phantasm Vlad III, right? It truly deserves to be <The Impaler>"

Then Wu Ming discovered that Red Lancer was fighting with Vlad III.

As soon as the pile of iron pierced through, and the flames fluttered, the two were beaten very clearly.

"Sure enough, I'm still too gentle for these heroes."

Wu Ming couldn't help but think of his teacher Scathach.

"Although the skills taught by the teacher haven't decreased at all, I don't have what I should have as a hero."

This is also impossible, although Wu Ming as Dragon of the Root naturally has extraordinary innate talent.

However for the term hero, it was still a bit difficult for a non-human man to understand the hero.

Wu Ming current advantages were only dragon scales, almost infinite magic, time and space adaptability, and Noble Phantasm sublimation.

The skin before transforming the dragon could be said to be indestructible due to the dragon scales, and the dragon scales could withstand an EX-Rank Noble Phantasm.

He still had almost unlimited magic power, and Wu Ming had never exhausted it completely, not even a third of it had been exhausted.

The characteristics of the race, the power of time and space basically do not affect Wu Ming, and can freely travel through the tunnels of space and time.

It also had the BUG level ability of a sublimation Noble Phantasm. Imagine if Wu Ming sublimates hundreds of thousands of A-rank Noble Phantasm attacks, and frees their real names together, however, the supply of magic power is sufficient, the scene is truly inhuman.

This was still Wu Ming strength as the Dragon of the Root in his childhood period. If the Dragon of the Root Adult is not directly imagined, it is estimated that it will be comparable to the strength of the Counter Force.

At this moment, Wu Ming saw Astolfo riding a Hippogriff on the battlefield.

Seeing that he had said something to Vlad III who had just been separated from the Red Lancer, Astolfo flew towards the Hanging Garden with a happy face.

"Could it be… Sieg really came back to save the Homunculus."

Wu Ming couldn't help but think.
