Chapter 606, Fragile Alliance Relations

Translator: Silavin

 

Originally, Lu Fan had been puzzled. How was it that all three of them had weapons and could use them? Clearly, within the God’s Tomb Secret Realm, weapons should not be usable.

 

However, after a moment, Lu Fan understood.

 

The items in their hands were most likely not actual weapons, but rather similar to Little Blade Armour Dragon King’s Blade Armour and Armour Hooks. They were merely weapons that came with their transformation, without any actual Attribute Enhancement.

 

Nevertheless, these allowed them to display their Profession Characteristics after their Transformation.

 

As Lu Fan was observing this battle, the three opponents also noticed the arrival of Lu Fan and Wang Tianlang.

 

Immediately, the already tense nerves of the three became even more strained. When fighting the Divine Lake Crocodile Ancestor, they no longer exerted their full strength but held back. They were clearly guarding against Lu Fan, worried he had come to steal their Monster.

 

Li Qingfeng was the first to notice Lu Fan. After his body circled once in mid-air, a cold male voice emerged from his mouth. “It’s the Ye Family’s Dragon Tamer and the Wang Family’s Wang Tianlang. Neither of them are particularly noteworthy, but at this critical juncture, we cannot allow others to come in and cause trouble!”

 

After Yuan Jingang glanced back at Lu Fan and Wang Tianlang, he spoke. “I need to hold the frontline, I don’t have the time nor the energy to be distracted by others.”

 

“Black Mage, those two are yours to hold off. Later, once we’ve killed the Divine Lake Crocodile Ancestor, we’ll share whatever is inside the Treasure Chest with you!”

 

However, the Black Mage was not one to follow the other’s plan so easily.

 

“Kehehehe” laughter emerged from his skull, followed by. “Why would I believe your bullshit? None of us are three-year-old children. If you send me away and you truly kill the Divine Lake Crocodile Ancestor and obtain the Treasure Chest, would you really share the Rewards with me? The three of us merely formed a temporary team, coming to kill this Boss. We are all after the Red Treasure Chest its guarding. We’ve been wary of each other from the start. At this moment, you want to send me away? Do you take me for a fool?”

 

The Black Mage clearly did not want to waste time with pointless chatter, so he openly spoke his mind.

 

His words were not without reason.

 

If he left the battlefield to engage Lu Fan and Wang Tianlang, then once Yuan Jingang and Li Qingfeng obtained the Rewards from the Treasure Chest, they would certainly keep it all to themselves.

 

They might even turn around and attack him.

 

The alliance between the three was fragile to begin with. The only reason they could work together to kill the Divine Lake Crocodile Ancestor was because the three of them maintain mutual restraint.

 

Now that Lu Fan and Wang Tianlang had appeared as unknown variables, none of them wanted to act rashly.

 

Li Qingfeng was naturally displeased by this. While continuing to cast Skills to attack, he questioned. “Then what do you suggest!? I’m responsible for Attacking from the backline, Yuan Jingang is responsible for Tanking in the frontline. We definitely cannot withdraw from our position. If you’re unwilling to stop those two, are we supposed to watch them get involved and muddy the waters?”

 

The Black Mage sneered, his tone frivolous. “Two pieces of trash who aren’t even Level 110. Do they warrant me personally going to stop them? You two can relax. I have my own way to hold them back. So, you two should just hurry up and kill the Boss. After we divided up the Treasure Chest it’s guarding, we can also kill those two together and take their key fragments!”

 

Having said this, he waved his staff. Immediately, the top of the staff was surrounded by black energy, which then flew out like undead spirits.

 

These black energies separately landed on the white bones exposed around the lake surface, then condensed and transformed into White Bone Archers wearing tattered leather armour.

 

These White Bone Archers did not seem particularly strong, but they emanated a bone-chilling pressure.

 

Lu Fan did not need to use Appraisal to see that these White Bone Archers were at least Level 110 or above Monsters. Someone like Wang Tianlang would certainly suffer if hit by one of their arrows.

 

Moreover, they came in large numbers; a full thirty-odd of them.

 

A volley from them could form a rain of arrows that was more than enough to stop their enemies.

 

Seeing this, Lu Fan thought to himself, [This Secret Realm is being ridiculously unreasonable. My Pets can’t be summoned, but others’ Summoning Skills can work?]

 

Not only did Lu Fan complain in his heart, Li Qingfeng and Yuan Jingang were also quite displeased seeing that the Black Mage had this trick up his sleeve.

 

Yuan Jingang said with suppressed anger. “Heh! So much for cooperation! You’ve been hiding an ace up your sleeve this whole time! If you had summoned these Monsters earlier to help me and Li Qingfeng attack together, this Divine Lake Crocodile Ancestor would have been slain by now!”

 

The Black Mage sneered. “What are you criticising me for? I don’t believe you two have been going all out from the beginning until now. Have you not also kept your cards close to your chest to guard against me?”

 

“From beginning till now, have either of you used any of your Level 100 Divine Skills? No right? In that case, none of us should criticise the other. We just need to know that our three-way cooperation is merely this. It’s best that none of us play such paltry tricks against each other. Whoever dares to act carelessly, the other two have plenty of means to counter them!”

 

Having said this, he gestured with his hand and commanded all the White Bone Archers. “Kill those two ants over there, then concentrate your firepower on attacking the Divine Lake Crocodile Ancestor!”

 

Clearly, the Black Mage did not take Lu Fan and Wang Tianlang seriously at all.

 

Following his command, all the White Bone Archers drew their bows and aimed their arrows at Lu Fan and Wang Tianlang.

 

Wang Tianlang immediately felt the tremendous pressure. Even if he had the Purgatory Lord with him, he would probably choose to turn and flee, let alone now, when he was essentially a cripple.

 

“Brother Lu, what should we do…” Wang Tianlang was nearly in tears, while Lu Fan beside him remained composed.

 

In fact, Lu Fan still had a completely relaxed expression as if he were watching a good show. He was not even slightly nervous after being targeted by these three powerful Players.

 

Yuan Jingang, Li Qingfeng, and the Black Mage were all at Level 110. The three of them working together posed a threat even greater than Ning Shuang’er plus Luo Lixiu!

 

But so what of it? In the entire God’s Tomb Secret Realm, there was no one qualified to worry him.

 

On the contrary, Lu Fan’s playful spirit had been aroused.

 

He was quite curious to know if the Black Mage’s White Bone Archers could not stop him, what would these three do? Would their originally fragile alliance collapse?

 

[How interesting.]
