Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 883, The Situation Isn’t Optimistic

Translator: Silavin

“Jin Zhan!?” When Lu Fan saw Jin Zhan, he was both surprised and delighted.

The Devouring Dragon King, on the other hand, looked impatient, asking who this ant was.

The Devouring Dragon King’s aura was incomparably powerful, even surpassing Lu Fan’s a hundredfold.

Therefore, being watched by such an existence, even Jin Zhan couldn’t help but feel cold sweat running down his back.

Fortunately, the Devouring Dragon King held no hostility towards him. Otherwise, a casual strike could have killed Jin Zhan hundreds of times over.

Lu Fan stopped bickering with the Devouring Dragon King and instead dismounted to meet with Jin Zhan.

Naturally, the Devouring Dragon King would not maintain her Dragon Form either. It was just that it was too big. Communicating with Humans like Lu Fan was rather taxing in that form.

Most importantly, the Devouring Dragon King still had the Dragon Saddle equipped.

She did not want to wear this thing for even a second longer. She just wanted to quickly remove the Dragon Saddle.

The Devouring Dragon King transformed into a beautiful young woman, which caused Jin Zhan to stare somewhat dumbfounded for a moment.

It was not until Lu Fan called out to him that he snapped back to reality.

After the two men exchanged information, both parties understood each other’s situations.

When Lu Fan heard that the Far North’s walls had been destroyed, he had been extremely anxious at first, fearing the battle line had collapsed.

Later, when Jin Zhan mentioned that the Fallen Corpse Puppets had also been destroyed, and no more Fallen Corpse Puppets were appearing to attack Dragon Country’s borders, only then did Lu Fan feel relieved.

The Devouring Dragon King estimated that the Fallen Corpse Ancient God must have lost its Mount, and its subordinate forces had been reduced.

Therefore, it wanted to preserve the numbers of its Fallen Corpse Puppets, using quantity to ensure it still maintained an advantage in the Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy.

In other words, the Fallen Corpse Ancient God had actually also been wounded now and did not intend to be as high-profile as before.

Instead, it would accumulate strength like the other Ancient Gods.

In the short term, the Fallen Corpse Ancient God probably would not emerge again, much less use Fallen Corpse Puppets to attack Dragon Country. Dragon Country was temporarily safe and had some time to recover.

This was both good news and bad news.

The good news was that Dragon Country temporarily did not need to invest too much manpower and resources at the Far North border.

The bad news was that without Fallen Corpse Puppets in the Far North, Dragon Country had lost a Monster Spawn Point and Levelling Up Sanctuary.

No matter what, the trouble with the Fallen Corpse Puppets should be temporarily resolved.

What Dragon Country needed to do now was prepare to face the Ancient Gods who would soon fully awaken.

Lu Fan informed Jin Zhan just how terrifying the Fallen Corpse Ancient God truly was.

Even with him and the Devouring Dragon King joining forces, if he had not possessed Ancient God Powers, they would probably have already been slapped to death by the Fallen Corpse Ancient God.

After hearing this, despair appeared on Jin Zhan’s face.

In his view, such an opponent was virtually impossible to defeat.

He knew Lu Fan’s strength all too well. The Devouring Dragon King’s strength was even a hundred times greater than Lu Fan’s. Yet the two of them together still could not withstand a single strike from the Fallen Corpse Ancient God!

This was the Ancient God still inside the bronze coffin, not even fully awakened!

If the Fallen Corpse Ancient God fully awakened, who in this world could resist it!?

Seeing Jin Zhan’s despair, Lu Fan took the initiative to comfort him. “Ancient Gods are indeed very powerful. Humanity’s chances of victory are less than ten percent. But, you and I cannot simply give up like this. If we don’t even struggle, death awaits us. Might as well fight with all we have. Just surrender without resistance and allow the Ancient Gods to annihilate this era? Wouldn’t we be too pathetic?”

Hearing this, Jin Zhan smiled and nodded. “You’re right. Sitting and waiting for death isn’t a solution. Even if there’s only a one percent chance of victory, we should try and fight for a future!”

“Haha, exactly!” Lu Fan patted Jin Zhan’s shoulder with a chuckle.

Jin Zhan also smiled at him, then said. “Speaking of which, what are your plans now!?”

Lu Fan thought for a moment, then said. “I mentioned before wanting to find Ancient Gods in the world that haven’t awakened yet. How’s the progress on this?”

Jin Zhan said. “My Grandfather is already working on it. The results… aren’t that great, but they’re not non-existent either.”

“Oh? Tell me the details.”

Jin Zhan then proceeded to inform Lu Fan of everything Dragon Country’s upper echelons had been doing recently.

Over the past month, Lu Fan had been continuously battling the Blood Moon’s Owner.

Simultaneously, Dragon Country had been constantly trying to reach consensus with other countries on the matter of eliminating Ancient Gods.

Starting two months ago, Elder Jin, relying on his influence, had summoned leaders from almost all countries to discuss matters, including major Forces such as Star Strip Country, Determined Will Country, Feather Country, and others.

During the talks, Elder Jin hadn’t mentioned that Lu Fan possessed the ability to seize Divine Seats.

Because once this matter spread, there would be problems. Namely, those from other countries would also want their own people to possess Divine Seats.

They could not possibly be so kind-hearted as to let Dragon Country seize all the Ancient Gods’ Divine Seats. Even if doing so was for enabling everyone to survive the Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy.

They simply would not allow Dragon Country to monopolise such an advantage.

If Divine Seats could truly be seized, they would certainly want a share as well.

Human nature was as such. Elder Jin could not change it.

All he could do was minimise such troubles as much as possible.

Therefore, he had only said that Dragon Country’s Spark possessed the ability to kill the Ancient Gods, hoping each country could cooperate with Dragon Country to locate Ancient Gods within their territories, then notify Dragon Country.

Although he had not mentioned Lu Fan’s ability to seize Divine Seats, Dragon Country taking the lead in moving against unawakened Ancient Gods still made many countries wary.

Most doubted Dragon Country. They could not possibly be so kind-hearted as to help other countries eliminate their Ancient Gods. Most likely, there was some secret about the Ancient Gods they were not aware of.

Therefore, most countries were unwilling to cooperate with Dragon Country. They merely obtained from Dragon Country the method for confirming the approximate locations of Ancient Gods.

Of course, there were also some countries willing to trust Dragon Country unconditionally.

For instance, countries that had always maintained good relations with Dragon Country, such as Hope Country and Feather Country.

Especially Feather Country.

Feather Country was a major power no less significant than Star Strip Country, with a power faction in control.

Among them, Andrei’s Family had made considerable efforts in promoting cooperation between Feather Country and Dragon Country.

Feather Country’s representatives had now returned to their own country and begun issuing notifications, mobilising the entire nation’s forces to search for Maps where Ancient Gods might exist.

Once discovered, they would immediately notify Dragon Country, which would then confirm the timing for going to eliminate them.

Overall, countries holding sceptical attitudes towards Dragon Country’s motives comprised more than half. While those willing to cooperate with Dragon Country numbered only a handful.

Currently, Elder Jin was still working hard to facilitate this matter, even having Elder Han to join in and participate in the meetings.
