Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 513, Monster Tide Reaches Overseeing Heaven City

Translator: Silavin

Left with no alternative, the Liu Family Patriarch could only instruct people to search for whether there was another Dragon Tamer named ‘Jin Chenghan’ anywhere in Extremistis Country, whilst also sending people to find the Force behind the Liu Family to see if they could help subdue this Monster Tide.

The Liu Family Patriarch was in the conference room, closely monitoring the movement of the Monster Tide, whilst also waiting for a response from the Force behind him.

Half a day passed, and two pieces of bad news arrived in succession.

First, the Force behind the Liu Family responded, saying that they would most likely not intervene in this matter.

This was because the Monster Tide was simply too difficult to deal with. Although this Ancient Noble Family had unfathomable strength, if they were to suppress this Monster Tide, it might deplete centuries of accumulated strength. Therefore, even if it meant sacrificing Extremistis Country, they would not rashly oppose this Monster Tide.

However, this Ancient Noble Family had not done anything to help. They had dispatched a top expert to Overseeing Heaven City to see if they could lend a hand to the Liu Family. After all, the entire Extremistis Country was under their control, and it was a valuable asset to them, so they were not going to give it up unless absolutely necessary.

Despite these words, the Liu Family Patriarch could see that once the Monster Tide truly swept across Extremistis Country, the country would not receive any assistance from the Force backing him.

The first piece of bad news had already left the Liu Family Patriarch overwhelmed, but the next piece of bad news gave him the feeling that the sky was about to collapse.

That was, within half a day, another city in Extremistis Country had been attacked by the Monster Tide and razed to the ground.

This was bad enough, but more importantly, according to the direction of the Monster Tide’s advance, it would reach Overseeing Heaven City in at most half a day!

Overseeing Heaven City, after the disturbance caused by Lu Fan, was already severely weakened. Although it was the Capital of Extremistis Country, its defences were thin. If this Monster Tide truly arrived, Overseeing Heaven City would surely fall!

Once Overseeing Heaven City, as the Capital, fell, the entire country would likely be no different from a fallen nation.

The Liu Family Patriarch was even considering leaving Overseeing Heaven City early with his Liu Family. Although he would be abandoning the Royal Authority, at least he could preserve his life.

While the Liu Family Patriarch had this thought, he also had concerns, namely that his Royal Authority in Extremistis Country was entirely due to the support of the Force behind him. If he abandoned Overseeing Heaven City and left directly, would he be punished by them?

With their strength, if the Liu Family deserted their post and left Overseeing Heaven City, they would likely eliminate them no matter where they fled to…

Thus, the Liu Family Patriarch was in a dilemma. Neither staying nor leaving was a good option.

The entire conference room was extremely tense. Time passed quickly, and evening approached.

The icy atmosphere in the conference room was broken by a pale-faced secretary.

This secretary pushed open the door and, with a face full of despair, said, “The Monster Tide has reached Overseeing Heaven City…”

With just this short sentence, everyone present panicked.

The Liu Family Patriarch seemed to have aged ten years, his eyes bloodshot, as he stood up from his chair and hoarsely asked, “It’s finally here? Where is the Monster Tide now?”

The secretary grimly replied, “It’s five hundred kilometres outside Overseeing Heaven City. According to the Monster Tide’s speed, it should… reach Overseeing Heaven City in at most two hours.”

“Two hours…” The Liu Family Patriarch felt incredibly bitter. He knew that at this moment, there should be a top expert in Overseeing Heaven City sent by the Force behind them.

But whether this expert would appear was uncertain.

Whether he himself could survive was also up to fate…

The Liu Family Patriarch sighed and asked those nearby, “Is the Protective Barrier of Overseeing Heaven City fully charged? And have the Magic Crystal Cannons been set up?”

An elderly man in military uniform, who appeared to be an important General in Extremistis Country, stood up and replied. “Sir, the Protective Barrier and Defensive Arrays are all ready. Overseeing Heaven City has also urgently transported two hundred Magic Crystal Cannons, placed at the locations where the Monster Tide is expected to invade from.”

After a pause, his voice lowered slightly as he continued. “But, I must say that this Monster Tide is too strong. Even the Nine Hell Demons of the past cannot compare to it.”

“With just our Protective Barrier and Magic Crystal Cannons, I fear we cannot hold it back…”

“If we can’t hold it back, what do you want me to do!?” The Liu Family Patriarch glared at him.

The elderly General’s expression changed, and he quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak further.

The Liu Family Patriarch displeasingly added, “I am aware of certain matters; I don’t need your reminders. This current Monster Tide can easily destroy Extremistis Country. As its ruler, all I can do is try to hold it back as much as possible. Even if we know we cannot stop the Monster Tide, and we evacuate everyone from Overseeing Heaven City, where can everyone go? This Monster Tide will surely cause Extremistis Country to fall. Rather than having everyone become refugees, it’s better to find a way to intercept the Monster Tide here!”

The Liu Family Patriarch’s words were righteous and difficult to refute.

In truth, the Liu Family Patriarch knew all too well that if Overseeing Heaven City fell, the Liu Family would certainly fall as well.

Given this, it was better to find a way to make a final stand against this wave of monsters.

Seeing that the elderly General had nothing more to say, the Liu Family Patriarch turned to another middle-aged General and asked, “And you, have you found the people I’ve asked you to find?”

The middle-aged General, with an expressionless face, nodded and said, “Yes, it has been confirmed that Jin Chenghan of the Royal Jin Family, had died in the National Trial Secret Realm. I have found that across Extremistis Country, there are a total of three people named Jin Chenghan, and all three have now been brought to Overseeing Heaven City. Additionally, I have also found that our Extremistis Country has one Dragon Tamer named Chen Tianzhi.”

“Chen Tianzhi has close ties with Jin Zhu, a remnant of the Royal Jin Family. After the Royal Jin Family handed over the Royal Authority to your Liu Family, these two bought a courtyard in the suburbs outside Overseeing Heaven City and gathered remnants of the Jin Family to live there.”

“We have also brought Chen Tianzhi and Jin Zhu here. Beyond this, there are no other people in Extremistis Country related to the terms ‘Dragon Tamer’ or ‘Jin Chenghan’.”

The Liu Family Patriarch nodded and said. “Good, you’ve done well!”

“The Boss of the Monster Tide has been looking for the Dragon Tamer Jin Chenghan. If we can hand him over, perhaps this Monster Tide will retreat.” As he said this with hope, his brows furrowed slightly, and he continued, “But the key is, although we’ve found a Dragon Tamer and all the Jin Chenghans in this country, who knows if they are what that Boss is seeking?”
