Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 454, A Mature Beauty Under the Pool of Poison?

Translator: Silavin

The originally calm pool of poison suddenly surged up like towering waves, similar to Ji Ji using her Poison Sea Surge. It crashed down toward Lu Fan and his Pet Dragons.

Lu Fan had overestimated Ye Sha’s Concealment. After all, since acquiring Ye Sha, no enemy had been able to see through his Concealment.

So, when the opponent precisely detected Lu Fan’s position and launched an attack, Lu Fan could not react in time.

By the time Lu Fan recovered from his trembling, the tsunami of poison had already reached above him and his Pet Dragons. It was clearly too late to dodge now.

Fortunately, Lu Fan could tell that this tsunami of poison was nothing that special. It was not a Skill meant for attacking.

Lu Fan was very confident in his and his Pet Dragons’ 100% Debuff Resistance, so he simply allowed this large wave to crash upon them.

Since this was a wave that engulfed them, it could not be judged by the number of hits. Thus, the Jade Shield on Lu Fan and his Pet Dragons could not block it at all.

After Lu Fan and his Pet Dragons were hit, something happened that left Lu Fan dumbfounded.

He and all his Pet Dragons, except Ji Ji, were covered with all kinds of Debuffs!

Immediately, Lu Fan felt uncomfortable sensations all over his body – Burn, Corrosion, Blind, Paralyse… various Effects emerged simultaneously, causing Lu Fan, who had never experienced any Debuffs before, to feel immeasurable agony.

Lu Fan finally tasted the suffering that Ji Ji’s opponents had to endure. This left Lu Fan confused amidst this wretched pain. [What is going on!? I should be Immune! How am I affected by Poison Debuffs all of a sudden? Unless… unless… the opponent is another Hell Poison Dragon King!?]

Only the poison of a Hell Poison Dragon King could affect Dragons, and force them to suffer 50% of its Poison Effects.

[That must be it! With so much poison here, the being lurking inside must be a Hell Poison Dragon King like Ji Ji!]

[But that doesn’t make any sense! The Explorer’s Journal states that the team had seen the Devouring Dragon King – Maw of the Abyss. How could the Devouring Dragon King become a Hell Poison Dragon King!?]

[Argh! Forget it!]

Lu Fan was in too much pain to consider these things right now. The Hell Poison Dragon King’s poison was indeed troublesome to deal with. However, Lu Fan had its nemesis here!

“Xiao Cui, use Jade Light!” Following Lu Fan’s command, Xiao Cui immediately cast the Skill, enveloping all the Pet Dragons and Lu Fan.

Instantly, Jade Light completely cleared all the Poison Debuffs from all the Pet Dragons and Lu Fan.

At the same time, Xiao Cui’s Spring of Life was also used, heading everyone, causing all the wounds created by Corrosion to rapidly heal.

Both Lu Fan and his Pet Dragons had Self-Healing abilities far superior to other creatures.

With Spring of Life and Jade Light, the Effects brought by the poison were almost instantly cleared away.

[The opponent’s Agility Attribute is most likely higher than Ye Sha, that is why they can see through Ye Sha’s Shadow Shroud.]

Since it was useless, Lu Fan removed the Concealment, intending to confront whatever was here head-on.

After a tsunami had crashed, the area returned to calm.

Lu Fan could still sense that the other party was beneath the pool not far in front of him, examining him.

It seemed that the other party was also surprised to encounter so many of its kind – as well as a Dragon Tamer – in this place.

The opponent did not rush in to launch another attack.

As for Lu Fan, he was not courteous in the slightest.

He took out the Underworld Serpent’s Cry and used Summon Divine Arrow to replicate Xing Chen’s Shatter Star Skill. Drawing his bow and nocking an arrow, he charged up to use Serpent’s Hidden Arrow.

Just as Lu Fan was about to shoot an arrow to test the opponent’s capabilities, a voice suddenly exploded in his mind. It was eerily similar to how the Ancient God Divine Bone had spoken to him before.

“A Dragon Tamer? How interesting…” This voice was not as ethereal as the Ancient God Divine Bone. However, it was very clear.

Judging by the voice, the other party seemed to be a woman, and an extremely charming one at that.

This was absolutely the most mature feminine voice Lu Fan had ever heard. Even Ye Wuxian could not hope to compare. Even she lacked much of this voice’s maturity and allure.

After hearing this voice, Lu Fan did not release the arrow in his hand but slightly frowned and asked. “You can speak Human Language?”

After Lu Fan said this, the other party was clearly silent for a few seconds, seemingly speechless at Lu Fan’s pointless question.

Afterward, the other party slowly questioned, “You lower lifeforms, akin to ants. How difficult do you think it is for me to communicate with you in Human Language using my Divine Power? You ants are truly interesting. I’ve long heard that some of you are born with the Mission of enslaving us Dragons. I have always thought of this as a joke, but I didn’t expect it to be true.”

“To think that today, I’ve actually seen one.”

“Mere ants want to enslave us Giant Dragons. Ridiculous. But that has me curious, how did someone as weak as you steal these Giant Dragons? Why are they so obedient towards you, like Master and Servant?”

The other party kept calling him an ‘ant’, which naturally displeased Lu Fan.

By now, Serpent’s Hidden Arrow had been charged to its peak, but Lu Fan still did not release it. Instead, he asked, “What’s it to you? Who exactly are you? Are you the Devouring Dragon King – Maw of the Abyss?”

The other party laughed. “To think even an ant has heard of my name?”

“That’s all I needed to know!” Lu Fan roared, and the Serpent’s Hidden Arrow in his hand flew out, directly pointing at the Devouring Dragon King beneath the pool of poison.

Lu Fan struck first, but only provoked a light laugh from the other party. “How presumptuous.”

Then, from beneath the pool, a star suddenly shot out, carrying the poison from the pool. It collided with Lu Fan’s Serpent’s Hidden Arrow.

Lu Fan’s eyes widened immediately. He was all too familiar with the star thrown by the other party. It was undoubtedly Xing Chen’s Skill, Shatter Star!

[First using poison attacks, similar to that of a Hell Poison Dragon King. Now, releasing stars, identical to a Starry Sky Dragon King? Just who is this!? How did she master Skills from different Dragon species!?]

However, now was not the time to ponder over these things, and Lu fan knew it.

The Shatter Star released by the other party was the genuine article, not a counterfeit replicated like Lu Fan’s Summon Divine Arrow.

When the two stars collided, the outcome was immediately clear.

Lu Fan’s arrow was directly shattered, and the immense power blew the poison in the pool in all directions, parting it – left and right.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Fan finally saw what was beneath this pool of poison. It was indeed a massive creature!
