Dragon of the Root

Chapter 959: Going to Nippur City

Leonidas and Wu Ming walked down the north wall. Due to Dingur's continuous bombardment of the northern wall, the Demon Beasts had retreated and were no longer attacking.

After all Dingur is real and has a "mystery." Even if the Demon Beast is strengthened, it will not be able to resist at all, unless the Demon Beast commander comes himself.

As a result, the soldiers were able to rest for a while, and Wu Ming and Leonidas also had the opportunity to retreat from the northern wall, because Wu Ming wanted to discuss something with Leonidas.

In Leonidas' tent, Leonidas sat in his chair, while Wu Ming sat on the chair beside him.

Leonidas will sit where he should be sitting, and he will do so on one side.

Leonidas who had taken off his helmet, had a stern expression, and with his red hair, he looked very simple.

Leonidas took the clay pot beside him with one hand, pointed it to his mouth, drank the water in it, and made a heroic sound that made obsessive-compulsive disorder very comfortable.

"Hooah! Cold!!"

He suddenly placed the clay pot on the simple table in front of him, Leonidas looked like he was drunk and looked at Wu Ming.

"Then, Lord Dragon Sage, what is it with you looking for me alone?" His tone was full of drunkenness, which made Wu Ming feel that Leonidas was really drunk.

The only wine that Mesopotamia is famous for is ale. When Wu Ming first came to Uruk, what was offered to him was ale. It wasn't delicious, but it wasn't bad either.

But as long as it's alcohol, it can make people drunk, and dead Heroic Spirits can also get drunk, especially Servants.

To be honest, if it wasn't for Wu Ming knowing that there couldn't be any wine on the north wall, and seeing Leonidas blushing like a drunken man, Wu Ming might really have thought he was drinking in the barracks.

There were rumors that Leonidas was drunk from a drop of alcohol, and would become an alcoholic.

Cough cough...

At this time Wu Ming also became serious.

"I'm going to Nippur."

When Wu Ming said this, Leonidas, who was still slightly drunk, immediately turned red, and his expression became serious.

Taking the clay pot from the table and placing it on the side, Leonidas placed his hand on the small table in front of him and looked at Wu Ming with a serious expression.

"Is that the gathering place for Demon Beasts?"

Even though it was in the form of a question, his tone was indeed a statement. After all, Wu Ming said this information when he came to the northern wall earlier.

After that, without waiting for Wu Ming to answer, Leonidas seemed to be in a drunken state again, and started talking to himself.

"About three months ago, when the Demon Beast commander appeared with an upgraded Demon Beast, the north wall was already built, and there were only many humans left in Nippur outside the north wall."

"They are trying their best to fight the Demon Beasts, trying their best to keep them alive, and they are waiting for our rescue."

Suddenly picking up the clay pot he had just placed beside him, Leonidas took a sip of water and continued speaking.

"As a result, Uruk was attacked the night the Demon Beast Commander appeared, and we haven't received any news from Nippur since then."

It was clear that Nippur City was completely occupied by the appearance of enhanced Demon Beasts and Demon Beast commanders breaking down the city gates.

A mere city was truly not enough to behold in front of a Demon Beast Commander. The city of Nippur is outside the northern wall. If it was the current Demon Beasts, they would be difficult to fight against, not to mention there was an existence like the Demon Beast Commander.

Wu Ming didn't mean to talk about this topic, he just listened quietly to Leonidas' narration, and after Leonidas had almost finished speaking, he started the topic.

"I don't know if any other place besides Nipur has become the stronghold of the Demon Beasts, I will check outside the northern wall to see if there are still humans alive, and I will take the temporary den built by the Demon Beasts."

Wu Ming's last words were in response to Leonidas' grief over the city of Nippur.

"That's fine." Even though Leonidas found this approach dangerous, he didn't say anything. After all Wu Ming had only come to inform Leonidas.

Wu Ming wasn't his subordinate at all, the two weren't even the same. Leonidas' status in Mesopotamia was much lower than Wu Ming's. After all Wu Ming was a Mesopotamian Dragon Sage.

"Don't worry, after all, I am a divine spirit rank Servant, I can still run if I can't defeat the enemy. If it was you, I would probably be buried in a bunch of Demon Beasts." Wu Ming comforted Leonidas in a joking manner.

Yet Wu Ming's comfort seemed so sarcastic that Spartan Leonidas' face twitched.

But what Wu Ming said was true, and Leonidas couldn't help but think about it. If Wu Ming was there when the "beheading operation" was carried out, some of the Servants who were sacrificed would have survived.

"If that's the case, I won't say anything."

Immediately Leonidas stood up and picked up the clay pot on the ground.

"While you are not at the north wall, I will guard the north wall."

After he finished speaking, Leonidas drank a full bottle of water with pride, which made Wu Ming very helpless, but now he is also proud of himself, right?

"Then I leave it to you, General Leonidas." He took the water jug beside him, and Wu Ming drank the water jug heroically no weaker than Leonidas.

"Then I'll go first."

Putting down the clay pot in his hand, Wu Ming didn't say goodbye to Leonidas again, and went straight out of the tent.

However when Leonidas went to the tent to send Wu Ming away, he found that he could not find Wu Ming.

At this moment, above the sky high outside the northern wall.

Wu Ming who flew into the sky with spiritual power, moved towards Nippur in his memory. He asked Chrysbelite to help detect the movements of the Demon Beasts, so that he could avoid the Demon Beasts and head straight for Nippur.

If it was only to detect the magic reaction in the surrounding land, Chrysbelite could do it.

Even though Wu Ming and Leonidas said he would go around to see if anyone was alive, in terms of "is there anyone alive", it was directly impossible. This point, whether it was Leonidas or Wu Ming, was very clear.

But seeing it without saying it, it's almost what it means.

Thinking like this, Wu Ming's speed increased again, and after a while, he saw the shadow of Nippur City.

Before approaching Nippur, Wu Ming smelled the stench and blood and Demon Beasts active in Nippur.

From the sky, Wu Ming could faintly see that there were many red marks on the ground and walls in Nippur City.

It's a blood trail.

"Of course, let's destroy the city of Nippur."

As a god, he also has to do some actions that are in line with God.
