Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 273, Ancient God Projection

Musashi Ten and Jin Chenghan both knew they were no match for Lu Fan, and turned their gaze toward Charles.

At this point, Charles’s expression was no longer as calm as before, as Lu Fan’s strength had truly exceeded his expectations.

He planted the giant cross on his back into the ground. He took off his milky-white Mage Robe and casually tossed it aside, revealing a battle suit of the same color underneath.

This battle suit was more form-fitting, somewhat like the leather armor of Assassin and Archer Type Professions. It allowed the wearer to better engage in close combat.

Presumably, this equipment was custom-made, perfectly matching his Profession Characteristics, allowing Holy Saint to exert maximum power.

Next, Charles grabbed the cross with both hands, and clouds gathered behind him as he moved.

With his wings flapping, Charles rose into the air, simultaneously swinging the cross in his hands to strike at Lu Fan from above.

Golden light blazed from the cross. A giant cross shape appeared in the air, its presence was particularly terrifying.

This strike clearly showed why Charles was judged to be T0, a league of his own among the other representatives. Even Musashi Ten’s earlier Skills were not half as powerful as this strike from Charles.

The golden cross was intimidating, making Lu Fan take things more seriously.

Lu Fan gathered power in his right arm, then struck with his sword, producing an even larger Sword Qi than before, which collided with Charles’s attack.

With a thunderous *Boom*, Lu Fan and Xiao Ye remained motionless, but Charles was forced back nearly a hundred meters. In this clash of Skills, due to Xiao Ye’s Attribute Boost, even Charles was no match for Lu Fan.

“Is that all?” Lu Fan sensed the power of Charles’s attack and made a rough assessment of his Strength Attribute. [He is indeed strong, but compared to my current Attributes, it isn’t much.]

After being casually repelled by Lu Fan, Charles’s expression became more severe. He did not rush for another attack, but instead removed a necklace from his neck.

The necklace held a silver cross, which Lu Fan had not paid attention to before.

When Charles took off the cross, Lu Fan took a closer look at this equipment and discovered it actually had an Ancient God aura on it.

Just as Lu Fan was wondering if the equipment was bestowed by an Ancient God, he suddenly saw Charles crush the cross!

When the cross shattered, it burst with dazzling golden light, and Charles fell back.

This golden light flew upward and stopped, then expanded to form a huge Heavenly Gate.

Golden light flickered within the gate, accompanied by eerily chanting voices reciting some scripture. Soon, a ‘holy’ figure emerged.

This being radiated golden light. It was very similar to an Angel. However, because it was shrouded in golden light, its appearance and attire could not be clearly seen. All that could be seen were the two Holy Light Swords it held in its hands and twelve pairs of wings on its back, very similar to the legendary Angels.

However, Lu Fan could sense from its aura that this should be what they called a projection of the Holy Mountain Ancient God.

This projection possessed power that Charles was absolutely unworthy of having. Even Lu Fan felt pressure from it.

Of course, that was all.

After all, this was not the Ancient God itself. The pressure this Ancient God Projection gave Lu Fan was not even as strong as a Hell Demon. It was just slightly stronger than the Demon General.

Still, for Xiao Ye, it was an opponent worth taking seriously.

Moreover, this Ancient God Projection could probably only be used once, since the necklace had been crushed by Charles.

Charles had played one of his trump cards, which Lu Fan found rather contemptible. He snorted coldly and asked, “We agreed not to use our Ancient God Power, yet you summoned an Ancient God Projection. Aren’t you going back on your own words?”

Charles’s expression remained unchanged as he said. “When I spoke of Ancient God Power, I meant Ancient God Essence. This Ancient God Projection is an equipment Skill, why shouldn’t I use it?”

Such sophistry made Lu Fan laugh. “Seems like your Star Strip Country has grown closer to the Extremistis Country over the years. I guess you’ve picked up their shamelessness. Well, no matter. If you are too weak, then this is nothing!”

With that, Lu Fan gave a command through their spiritual connection, and Xiao Ye immediately understood. She finally used her second charge of Void Break while simultaneously applying her Dragon Jaw Strike Skill, targeting the Holy Mountain Ancient God Projection.

With the two Skills being used together, Xiao Ye’s charge carried massive destructive power. In an instant, her huge body crossed the sky and crashed into the Ancient God Projection’s body.

The Ancient God Projection was indeed powerful. Facing this attack, it did not choose to dodge but instead crossed its two Holy Light Swords in front of itself, forcefully withstanding Xiao Ye’s strike.

The massive impact sent the Ancient God Projection flying backward, crashing through the Heavenly Gate it had emerged from before finally stopping.

After suffering this hit, the Ancient God Projection showed no signs of injury. Perhaps because it was just a projection and did not know what pain was.

After stabilizing itself, the Ancient God Projection swung its Holy Light Swords repeatedly. Each swing producing golden Sword Qis that carried golden storms sweeping toward Lu Fan and Xiao Ye.

The opponent’s attacks were completely different from those of Charles and Musashi Ten. They were clearly several times greater in power.

Facing such a powerful opponent, Xiao Ye showed no fear but grew more excited. After all, finding an enemy that could withstand her attacks was not easy.

With a loud Dragon Roar, Xiao Ye let out a Lava Blaze, clashing with and neutralizing the Ancient God Projection’s Sword Qis.

Lu Fan was not idle either. Each of his sword strikes released a Sword Qi with power no less than the Ancient God Projection’s attacks.

Meanwhile, Charles did not remain idle. He was now flying, like a streak of light from the side. He zoomed through the air, instantly arriving beside Lu Fan to strike him down.

It was another powerful Skill, and Lu Fan chose not to take it head-on without defending. He used the Flaming Meteor Sword to parry.

In the direct clash, Charles naturally lost and was sent flying by Lu Fan.

Even so, golden light kept flickering around Charles’s body, seemingly a pre-cast Buff that significantly reduced the damage he took while rapidly healing his body.

Therefore, after being forced back by Lu Fan’s sword, Charles could continue to fly and instantly appear in Lu Fan’s blind spot. He was finding an opportunity to attack Lu Fan from the side and rear.

The second attack was also deflected by Lu Fan. However, Lu Fan took note of what Charles was doing and had to admit his foe was indeed very clever. He had used the Ancient God Projection to keep Xiao Ye occupied, making it difficult for Lu Fan to continue Riding Xiao Ye.

Lu Fan did not want to be restricted by Charles like this, so he simply let Xiao Ye deal with the Ancient God Projection while he left his Riding State. He made use of his Flying Dragon King’s Bone Wings, and engaged Charles in aerial combat.
