Foolish Brother Odin

Chapter 165 Cu Chulainn's Revenge!

Forget about those brainless giants, the Aesir really couldn't understand how a remnant of Odin could be so terrifying. A sense of trance that one was raising a tiger to bring harm lingered in the hearts of every Aesir.

The discussion of the gods finally reached the ears of Tangs through the Valkyrie, causing him to reveal a rare and intriguing expression.

Odin in this life is seriously underestimated.

It is true that Odin in the epic Edda made many wrong decisions. From the time when Odin killed Ymir but accidentally let a pair of frost giants escape in the flood, leaving behind troubles and establishing the Frost Giant Kingdom, Odin's governance and military have been constrained.

The Aesir were unable to destroy the Frost Giant Nation, and they were also unable to defeat the Vanir, which laid the seeds for the Aesir to fight on multiple fronts.

Even so, Odin's ability cannot be denied. For example, he built the city wall but asked Loki to help him evade the debt. From another perspective, this is an example of Odin "spending little money to do big things", and it was a helpless move when the Aesir were short of resources.

On the one hand, he balanced the conflicts and interests between the pure-blooded Aesir and the giants. On the other hand, when the Nine Realms were in chaos, he still used diplomatic means to intimidate the deep sea god Aegir. At least in "Twilight", Aegir was neutral.

His domestic and foreign policy capabilities are seriously underestimated.

In this life, Odin had no chance to display these qualities.

It was not until his remaining soul slipped away to the neighboring Celtic world that Odin's heroic qualities were fully displayed.

This is a typical case of information asymmetry.

The time traveler knows too much, and in the eyes of others, he becomes the "God of Destiny" of multiple worlds.

Towns would neither admit nor deny this kind of thing.

Keep it mysterious and let them guess, this is the quality that a superior should have.

The Aesir and the Giants were ready for battle, they were already maddened by the weak enemies in this new world. Imagine, the opponent was Odin, a defeated general, with a group of short Chaos Giants who were obviously inferior to the original Frost Giants.

Isn’t this just walking military merit?

Now that the Nine Realms are stable, no one has enough merit to be crowned king, so what about conquering a new world? At least we have to choose a god to ascend to, right?

To be honest, if it weren't for Towns suppressing them and telling them that the time had not come yet, they would have found a way to kill them long ago.

Downs is still waiting here.

Both humans and gods are good, but the world’s will most likely not listen to anyone who teaches the world how to do things.

The Celtic world knows that Towns wants more. It is unwilling to give up, and even though it knows that what it will do next is likely to be futile, it must try.

So, just after Odin sent the intimidating letter of surrender to the four kingdoms, the Celtic world will soon discovered that the Tuatha de Danann was almost completely destroyed.

It has to strengthen those heroes who are already talented in their own way.

Around the Emerald Isle, mentioned by the Tuatha de Danann, several kingdoms on the islands were at war.

The northern part of Ireland is made up of several kingdoms. The current so-called "King of Ireland" is called Ochu, who is the nominal supreme ruler above the kings of the kingdoms.

King Och had six princesses. In order to maintain the unity of Ireland, he married his daughters to kings with different ambitions. Maeve, who had been unruly since childhood, was not satisfied with the political marriage arranged by her father. In this life, Maeve did something that shocked the world. She kicked her fiancé in the balls and ran back to her parents' home.

In order to appease the king who was furious after being injured, King Ochu had to marry his other daughter to the unfortunate man as compensation.

As for Maeve, King Ochu estimated that marrying his precious daughter off to another place would have the same result, as the saying goes, "a girl cannot be kept at home when she grows up", so he simply gave her a territory - the Kingdom of Connaught, allowing her to be queen there and choose her own husband.

It is highly likely that because the Celtic world was invaded by chaotic forces, fate was seriously deviated at this point.

Queen Maeve, who should have been extremely romantic, did not choose an ideal husband. Instead, she was attracted by all kinds of magical treasures.

That is Don Cooley, a brown sacred bull owned by the neighboring country of Ulster!

Legend has it that this cow can give birth to 50 calves in a day, 50 children can sit on its body, and 100 warriors can hide on its back.

So Maeve sent an envoy to borrow the cow, hoping to borrow it for a year and promising a generous reward.

The messenger found the owner and explained his purpose. The owner was happy to accept the request. That night, the owner hosted a banquet for the messenger. After drinking a few glasses of wine, the messenger began to speak wildly, saying that if the cow was not borrowed, Maeve would send an army to attack. The owner was very angry and the matter of borrowing the cow was cancelled.

After listening to the messenger's report, Maeve did not blame the messenger. Instead, she joined forces with the other two countries to form a tripartite coalition and marched towards Ulster. Thus, the war for a sacred bull began.

To be honest, this is a war that was started by those in power for their own selfish desires. There is no justice in it at all.

If this war is one-sided, and the world is plagued by chaos, it would be acceptable to the world if it could end quickly.

The problem was that there was a young hero named Cuchulainn in Ulster who took part in this blocking battle between the two countries with a huge disparity in strength.

When Cu Chulainn was seven years old, he killed the vicious hound raised by the blacksmith Curran with his bare hands. After that, he claimed to protect Curran, who had lost his beloved hound, instead of the hound, so he was called Cu Chulainn (meaning "Curan's fierce dog").

He had just returned from studying in the mysterious Kingdom of Shadows and was at his youngest and most irritable.

He held a scarlet magic spear in his hand and moved mysteriously through the dense forest. Every time he appeared, he would attack the weak points of the marching column, taking the lives of dozens or even hundreds of soldiers, and then evacuate like the wind before Queen Maeve's army arrived.

Originally, this would have become a super tug-of-war that could be called a bladder game, just like in the epic.

However, the destruction of the Tuatha de Danann changed all that.

Almost at the moment when Odin killed Lugur, the god of light, Cu Chulainn felt a terrible heart palpitation.

Because he, who is called "Son of Light", happens to be the child of the god of light, Luger, and Dectel, the sister of the mortal king Conchieber.

He had just killed a lot of Connacht warriors, and then he exploded seemingly without any warning.

He seemed to be crying for no reason, and there was no trace of sadness on his resolute face. Scarlet lines of law surrounded the red magic spear [Spear of Piercing Death Thorns (Gaberga)] in his hand.

Originally, this magic spear was terrifying enough. After stabbing the opponent, the 30 barbs on the spear would rip the opponent open. Being cut by its sharp blade would leave saw-like scars, and no matter how deep the spear was stabbed, it could be easily pulled out.

Obviously, with the fall of Luger and the power of the world's will, Cu Chulainn's power increased dramatically.
