Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 1058, Just a Projection!?

Translator: Silavin

Within the flames, Lu Fan’s body melted like an ice block at a visibly rapid pace.

Not just his physical form, his Attributes and Level plummeted continuously.

Xiao Zuo, Xiao You, and the Little Blade Armour Dragon King attached to Lu Fan’s body were killed within the flames.

These three Pet Dragons had at least helped Lu Fan absorb some of the Damage, but the Purgatory Overlord’s flames were too powerful. Even with their sacrifice, they could not buy much time.

The Purgatory Overlord only has a trace amount of Ancient God Power, but it was enough to kill Lu Fan.

Lu Fan’s body dropped from the air, crashing heavily into the ground, emitting wisps of dark smoke and the acrid smell of burnt flesh.

This charred mass was nearly unrecognizable as Human.

An ordinary person burned to this state would have died long ago.

Only Lu Fan, with his previously High Level and possession of Ancient God Power, making his Life Force far exceed that of normal Humans, could have possibly survived.

Though he appeared dead, he still clung to a thread of life.

This was not Lu Fan’s good fortune that he had lived though, nor had the Purgatory Overlord’s Ancient God Power conveniently run out just before his death.

The Purgatory Overlord still possessed enough Ancient God Power. Killing Lu Fan would not have been difficult.

Sparing Lu Fan was intentional. This way, she could fully own him.

Letting Lu Fan die and depart from this place to slumber would offer her no benefit.

Only by capturing Lu Fan, making him unable to live yet unable to die, would she be able to extract some usefulness out of him.

Confirming Lu Fan had no remaining capability left, the Purgatory Overlord transformed back into her Human Form.

She appeared exhausted, but the joy on her face made her stunning features even more captivating.

Barefoot, she treaded on the scorching ground. The Purgatory Overlord approached Lu Fan in a few steps.

Like a victor, she looked down at him, laughing. “How about that? In the end, I won!”

“You bastard, you’re truly troublesome. I really don’t understand how you could make so many Giant Dragons fight for you, refusing to retreat even in death. Fortunately, among all those Pet Dragons, one was intelligent enough to leave you. Otherwise, who would have won this battle would truly have been uncertain.”

“But I guess the method of commanding so many Giant Dragons must be due to your Ancient God Power. If I obtain your Ancient God Power, could I also make countless Giant Dragons fight for me?”

“Hehe, actually, I know the entrance to the Dragon Domain. If your Ancient God Power truly allows me to control Giant Dragons, then I’ll invade the Dragon Domain in the future and make those terrifying existences fight on my behalf!”

“If even those Dragon Kings can be controlled, with just the power of you two Ancient Gods, I could sweep away all other Ancient Gods and become this world’s God King! What fortune, becoming God King upon first becoming an Ancient God. I believe none of you Ancient Gods would believe such a thing is possible, right?”

“Unfortunately, it’s also the truth. I, the Purgatory Overlord, will ultimately stand at the pinnacle of this world. In the future, there will be no Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy. I, the Purgatory Overlord, will be this world’s only True God!”

She extended her hand. An obsidian-like protrusion grew from her palm, stabbing directly into Lu Fan’s body.

Once this obsidian connected with Lu Fan’s body, the Purgatory Overlord could extract Ancient God Power from him while simultaneously placing multiple long-lasting Debuffs on his body.

Without Ancient God Power, and with his body suppressed by Debuffs, Lu Fan’s fate would be identical to the other Ancient God’s.

Just as the Purgatory Overlord prepared to extract a small amount of Lu Fan’s Ancient God Power to research his abilities, her expression changed dramatically.

She suddenly detected something peculiar about his body.

Ancient God Power definitely existed within him.

But when she attempted to extract it, she discovered it was impossible to do.

His body seemed like an empty shell, completely devoid of any internal substance.

While the Purgatory Overlord stood bewildered, a sound of cutting air rang out.

With a soft *pfft*, a spear pierced through from behind, penetrating her completely.

The massive Damage made the Purgatory Overlord stagger. She twisted around to see Lu Fan’s face with a playful expression on with his spear having pierced through her body.

Moreover, Lu Fan’s body was completely intact, without any injuries whatsoever.

The Purgatory Overlord could not even detect any traces of battle on him!

She looked at the charred Lu Fan before her, then at the Lu Fan behind her. She immediately realized that she had not injured the real Lu Fan at all!

This was merely a Clone or some Projection!

However, this made no sense.

Through their battle, the Purgatory Overlord had gained a basic understanding of Lu Fan’s Attributes.

Any copy of him should have Attributes distinctly different from the original.

Moreover, upon receiving a massive amount of Damage, all Clone or Projections would inevitably dissipate. It could not possibly resemble the ‘charcoal’ figure before her, which remains identical to Lu Fan’s actual body without the slightest difference.

Regardless, the dying Lu Fan before her was definitely fake, because as the second Lu Fan appeared, the ‘Lu Fan’ in front of the Purgatory Overlord had begun decomposing and vanishing.

The Purgatory Overlord had never imagined she would be outmanoeuvred by Lu Fan, and had been dealing with a fake this whole time.

Throughout the entire battle, she had felt she had absolute control over the situation, calculating every detail flawlessly.

She had no time to ponder this further, because the spear in Lu Fan’s hand erupted with flames, the Skill’s Damage eroding her already compromised state.

“Die!” The Purgatory Overlord roared almost madly, opening her mouth again. Her final Ancient God Power was mobilized, condensing another fireball and hurling it toward Lu Fan.

This time, Lu Fan again showed no intention of dodging, allowing her flames to scorch his body.
