Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 194, Fallen Corpse Essence

Translator: Silavin

As soon as Black Dragon Pressure was unleashed, all the Monsters at the scene were Stunned, and naturally, Lui Fei and the others were no longer threatened by the Monsters.

It was precisely because of the existence of this Skill that Lu Fan was not afraid at all, even when faced with the threat of so many Monsters.

However, in her World Destroyer Form, Xiao Ye did not have an Area of Effect Skill like Great Cataclysm. To kill Monsters, she still needed to rely on the two Skills Great Cataclysm and Void Break. Therefore, Lu Fan asked Lu Changkong to use Holy Light Shield to buy ten seconds of time, while he set fire to the Monsters. After the Skill was used up, he would use Black Dragon Pressure to control the whole battlefield.

In this way, the nearly ten thousand Monsters were reduced to about a thousand, making it easier to clear them out.

Even if this plan went awry and put Lui Fei and the others in danger, hecould always have Xiao Cui come out to save the day.

At present, everything was being perfectly implemented according to Lu Fan’s plan, and there was no need for Xiao Cui to appear.

Under the Black Dragon Pressure, all the Snow Women fainted, making them easy Experience Points and Military Merits.

Seeing that Lui Fei and the others were completely Stunned, Lu Fan, riding Xiao Ye, said from the air, “Brother Lui, Brother Lu, Sister Shen, let’s clean up the battlefield together and kill all the remaining Monsters! Don’t worry, I’ve got all the Monsters under my Crowd Control. Feel free to kill them!”

As he spoke, Lu Fan took the lead and set an example. He pulled the Underworld Serpent’s Cry, and a fireball formed on the bowstring.

As Lu Fan released it, there was a soft *twang* sound, and the fireball flew out. Along its path, a fire wall formed again, drawing a straight line and engulfing several Snow Women on the ground, burning them with crackling sounds.

Indeed, when Summon Divine Arrow was enchanted with the Great Cataclysm Skill, the arrows of Underworld Serpent’s Cry became like mini Great Cataclysms. Wherever the arrows passed, they would ignite a wall of fire.

Although the Attack Power was much less compared to the actual Great Cataclysm, Snow Women were now suppressed by Black Dragon Pressure and unable to resist. The flames would still quickly burn them to death.

Shooting arrow after arrow, Lu Fan was no longer satisfied.

He directly used Serpents Swarm the Sky, releasing twelve arrows that formed twelve flaming paths, like a large net covering the Snow Women on the ground.

At this time, Lui Fei and the others had recovered from the shock of Lu Fan instantly killing nearly ten thousand Monsters on the scene. Seeing that Lu Fan had already started to clean up, clearing the remaining Monsters one by one, the three looked at each other and quietly began to help.

However, among the three, Shen Cai showed little interest in the Military Merits and Experience Points that were handed to them.

She rode her Pet Eagle and went directly to where Lu Luo was, starting to check on his condition.

Lu Fan saw this but did not stop her. After all, Lu Luo was Shen Cai’s fiancé whom she had been searching for a year. Now that he had become like this, Shen Cai naturally was in no mood to kill Monsters.

Lu Luo was now Stunned by the Black Dragon Pressure and posed no threat, so it was a good opportunity to let Shen Cai keep him company.

As Lu Fan shot arrow after arrow, wall after wall of fire rose, and soon, almost all the Monsters were burned to crisp, becoming charred carcasses.

At this time, the flames of Great Cataclysm were gradually extinguished by the cold wind and snow.

Due to the previous spread of fire, the place where everyone was located had already been burned down by tens of metres, forming a deep pit.

Now that the flames were extinguished, the wind and snow continued to blow fiercely, and the melted ice refroze.

At the same time, the wind and snow covered everything, re-enveloping this devastated area. Before long, the harsh environment of the Far North would bury all traces of what had happened.

The battle had finally come to an end. Everyone put away their weapons and came to where Lu Luo and Shen Cai were.

At this time, Shen Cai was holding the unconscious Lu Luo, her face full of grief.

Observing closely, Lu Luo was obviously in a really strange state. Although he looked no different from a normal person, his skin was purplish black, and he had no breath nor heartbeat. He was truly like a corpse that had not stiffened.

“Sister Shen, how is his condition?” Lu Fan dismounted and came forward to ask.

Shen Cai, with tears in her eyes, shook her head and said, “I’m not sure… this Lu Luo is indeed Lu Luo, but he also seems to not be him… I don’t know what happened to him…” Shen Cai’s speech lacked logic, obviously her emotions were far from calm at the moment.

Lu Fan thought for a moment and decided to wake Lu Luo up first.

However, this person had already become a Fallen Corpse Slave, and if he woke up, he would likely cause trouble again.

Lu Fan asked around and learned that Lui Fei, as a Divine Punishment Knight, had a Crowd Control Skill called Divine Punishment Chain.

This Skill could chain up the opponent, and they could only break free after struggling to consume all the Skill’s Durability. With Lu Fan watching, even if Lu Luo woke up, he would not have a chance to break free from this Skill.

Lu Fan asked Lui Fei to use Divine Punishment Chain on Lu Luo.

Lui Fei nodded, stretched out his hand, and a chain flashing with golden light extended from his hand, binding Lu Luo.

After restraining Lu Luo, Lui Fei told Lu Fan, “Brother Lu, this Skill of mine is just a weak Skill with low Durability. It’s fine for Mages of the same Level, but Warrior Type Professions can break free without much effort. So, you need to watch Lu Luo carefully and make sure he doesn’t escape.”

Lu Fan nodded and smiled, “Don’t worry, he won’t be able to escape with me here.”

Saying this, Lu Fan looked at Shen Cai and said, “Sister Shen, if he doesn’t behave, I will definitely take action to make him behave. Please forgive me if I offend you.”

Shen Cai nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I understand.”

“Alright then, I’ll release the Stun Effect on him now.” Lu Fan said, snapping his fingers. Then Xiao Ye retracted Black Dragon Pressure and transformed into her Infant Form, flying to Lu Fan’s shoulder.

Without the continuous pressure of Black Dragon Pressure, Lu Luo indeed quickly woke up.

Just as he opened his eyes, he was about to violently erupt, but Lu Fan did not tolerate him for a second. He stepped forward and punched him in the abdomen.

Lu Fan’s Strength Attribute was already high, and this punch made Lu Luo bend over, coughing up two mouthfuls of black blood.

“You feel pain? You are indeed different from Fallen Corpse Puppets.” Lu Fan noticed that Lu Luo’s current state was very different from Fallen Corpse Puppets. Although he had no heartbeat and was not breathing, he had intellect and could feel pain. He was no different from a living person.

After taking this punch from Lu Fan, Lu Luo became much more docile. He scanned everyone and finally fixed his gaze on Shen Cai.

“Cai’er, why did you tie me up? Please let me go, I feel so uncomfortable… Cai’er, didn’t you hear me? Please, can you ask them to release me…”

Lu Luo begged Shen Cai, but although she showed a trace of reluctance on her face, she did not give any response.

Lui Fei, as the Squad Leader, spoke first. “Lu Luo, don’t waste your effort. No one will release you until we figure out your situation. Although Shen Cai is a woman, she is first a warrior trained by the Griffin Legion. Since you have your memory, you should remember what kind of training those in the Griffin Legion have received. Do you think this kind of trick will work?”

Lu Luo fell silent, then raised his head, his face becoming ferocious. “You lowly insects, you will be engulfed by the wrath of the divine, you…”

Seeing that Shen Cai’s emotions remained stable up to now, Lu Fan gradually loosened up.

Seeing that Lu Luo was becoming a bit frenzied, Lu Fan directly slapped him. “Shut up! Answer what we ask!”

After being slapped, Lu Luo stopped talking, but his eyes were full of viciousness and killing intent when looking at Lu Fan.

However, Lu Fan did not feel anything.

Joke aside, if looks could kill, Jin Zhu would have torn him to pieces long ago.

Lu Fan was not Skilled at interrogation, so the task of interrogating Lu Luo still had to be handed over to Lui Fei.

Lui Fei asked Lu Luo several questions in succession, but Lu Luo remained silent to all of them.

Unable to pry open the other’s mouth, Lui Fei was also helpless.

In the end, everyone decided to take Lu Luo back to the military camp and keep him under custody first.

After all, the Fallen Corpse Slave Lu Luo was different from other Fallen Corpse Puppets. He seemed to have some understanding of the Ancient Gods and could communicate with people.

He was like a Heretic to the Human Race. brainwashed by the Ancient Gods, no different from a Human, but loyal to the Ancient Gods.

From his mouth, they could definitely dig out some clues about the Ancient Gods.

Just as everyone was about to set up an outpost and then escort Lu Luo back, something unusual happened to Lu Luo. He suddenly raised his head to look at the sky, letting out painful screams. Streams of purplish-black gas poured out from his seven orifices, gathering above his head.

This purplish-black gas was like the Life Essence of Lu Luo’s body. After it was all extracted and left, Lu Luo’s body withered and rotted at a visible speed.

At this time, Lu Luo seemed to finally have his own consciousness. In the midst of painful wailing, he struggled to cry out: “There are… more Fallen Corpse Slaves who have left ‘this place’… Deeper… there’s a Fallen Corpse Ruin… don’t let it awaken…”

“Ugh—”

With the last word uttered, Lu Luo completely turned into a rotten mummy, devoid of any Life Essence.

However, at the same time, the purplish-black gas condensed into a black gemstone, shrouded in purplish-black mist.

After the gemstone formed, it immediately seemed to have life, flying towards the deeper part of the Far North.

How could Lu Fan possibly let it escape like this?

The Flying Dragon King’s Bone Wings spread out, making Lu Fan’s speed faster than the gemstone.

Lu Fan did not rashly reach out to grab this gemstone, but instead took out the Black Dragon Scale Greatsword and directly smashed it, knocking it to the ground.

After being hit hard, this gemstone seemed to calm down. Embedded in the ice layer, the purplish-black gas disappeared from it.

After confirming that it had no abnormalities, Lu Fan carefully picked it up. Through Appraisal Eye, the information of this gemstone was fully revealed.

Fallen Corpse Essence (Special Item)
Effect: Unknown.

Apart from the name, there were no useful clues. However, Lu Fan suddenly remembered that Tu Jing had previously said that the Star Strip Country representative Charles was granted something called Holy Land Essence, which allowed him to change to a more powerful Hidden Profession.

[Are both Fallen Corpse Essence and Holy Land Essence the same thing? Could this thing allow someone to change to a Hidden Profession!?]
