With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

But this man didn't make a move as he just said a few words to the dungeon core that reported this to him.

That dungeon core revealed a surprised look before giving the man a bow and going off to follow his orders.

Another half an hour passed by in peace before that dungeon core spoke up again.

That dungeon core who had reported to the man was dungeon core 2, the leader of the aggressive faction. But to the others, he was known as True Dragon Lord Astaroth, one of the Ten Disasters of the world.

However, Lin Fan recognized him as something completely different.

Lin Fan recognized him as the one person who had been glaring at them the entire time when they hadn't bowed to the door earlier.

It seemed that this True Dragon Lord Astaroth really did know how to hold a grudge.

But could he not?

Father was the being that he revered the most and when he saw this new dungeon core and dungeon master disrespecting their father, he couldn't accept this at all. He wanted to teach these upstart brats a lesson, which was why he had reported to the man in the throne.

True Dragon Lord Astaroth suddenly tinked his glass and said, "Everyone, father is very interested in our conference this time, especially our new additions. So father wants to see a demonstration from our newest members."

As he said this, he turned to look at Lin Fan and Rokuko before adding, "After all, it is a rare thing to see a dungeon master."

He acted like he was thinking for a bit before saying, "If I recall correctly, there have only been four dungeon masters in history. Each one of them have all shown extraordinary power, so I'm curious to see what kind of power our new dungeon master has."

No one said anything after he finished talking, they all just turned to look at the sloppily dressed man sitting there, as if they were waiting for some kind of confirmation from him. After all, True Dragon Lord Astaroth was currently speaking on behalf of father and if this was him speaking arbitrarily, no one would accept this.

However, seeing that the sloppily dressed man didn't say a thing, they knew that he was indeed speaking on behalf of him.

Once they confirmed this, all of them were filled with enthusiasm as they started volunteering one by one.

"I'll do it, I'll fight them!" A dragon dungeon core said.

"No, no, let me. I think that I'm a better fit to give a demonstration of their powers!" An angel dungeon core said.

"Please, you're all just trying to make yourselves look good in front of father. Do any of you actually know how to hold back at all? Let me do it instead." A mushroom dungeon core said.

"You think that we don't know what you're planning?" A mermaid dungeon core said.

"You want to do something about it then?" The mushroom dungeon core asked.

This wasn't just happening between these two dungeon cores, all of the dungeon cores were getting more and more agitated as they 'volunteered'. However, this couldn't be blamed on them since this was a rare chance to show off in front of father.

This was a 'dungeon master', all of them knew what this meant. This was a painful lesson that had been deeply taught to them by all the previous dungeon masters.

It was just a shame that those dungeon masters only had the short lifespans that humans did and none of them were still alive.

But if they could defeat this new dungeon master before he could get stronger…

This was a once in a lifetime chance!

So naturally they were agitated and wanted to volunteer. They didn't want to let anyone else take this chance away from them.

But this was a show that was planned by True Dragon Lord Astaroth, so he had already picked who Lin Fan's opponent would be. There wouldn't be a chance for these dungeon cores to do anything.

True Dragon Lord Astaroth gave a clap that suddenly stopped everyone from talking and he said, "Everyone, if we were to all fight him, wouldn't we be bullying our new members?"

Everyone fell silent as they looked around awkwardly.

That was right, they were all senior dungeon cores, they shouldn't be acting this way…

But this was a chance that they didn't want to give up, so they couldn't just give up yet.

True Dragon Lord Astaroth saw everyone calm down and then said, "I think that to make things fair, we should have one of our younger members face these new members. Doesn't everyone think so?"

The older dungeon cores clearly didn't think so, but there was nothing that they could do since this was a very logical reason. If they were to fight against the new members, it would almost seem like bullying.

The younger members all had sparkling eyes when they heard this as they never thought that they would get this chance.

True Dragon Lord Astaroth continued, "Let's have 627 take this opportunity then."

Dungeon core 627 was shocked to hear this since she never thought that she would get this chance.

She was one of the weaker dungeon cores among the 600s, so she thought that it would certainly be someone different. The only thing that was special about her was that she had an ice dungeon which specialized in ice monsters. But even then, her monsters were weaker than most people's monsters.

True Dragon Lord Astaroth ignored this look on her face and said, "Let's have a mock dungeon war, that should be the best way to show off the power of this new dungeon master."

Lin Fan immediately knitted his brows as he asked Rokuko, "Mock dungeon war, what is that?"

Rokuko shook her head to show that she didn't know either. After all, this was her first time coming to this dungeon conference and interacting with the other dungeon cores. There were still many things that she didn't know about.

What Lin Fan didn't expect was Haku answering this question for him.

She had unknowingly made it back to his side during all of this.

Haku explained, "A dungeon war is a battle between two dungeons to see which one is stronger. It usually involves some kind of bet between the two dungeons, whether it is material goods or DP. In some extreme cases, there have even been dungeon cores that have been destroyed and absorbed by the winners."

Lin Fan was shocked when he heard this and he couldn't help saying, "But we don't really have much…"

Haku revealed a smile and said, "That's why it's a mock dungeon battle. You'll be given a certain amount of DP and you and your opponent will both have to make temporary dungeons to fight against each other. The winner will be the one who can take the dungeon core from the other dungeon."

Then she knitted her brows and said, "But as for your opponent…"

It wasn't hard for her to understand what True Dragon Lord Astaroth was thinking since she couldn't be more familiar with him. After all, he was her main enemy when it came to the war between their two factions. She had spent quite a bit of time studying him and his thoughts, so she could guess what he was planning.

As she had expected, True Dragon Lord Astaroth said, "Now, before we begin, let's set the battlefield for this mock dungeon war."

With a wave of his hand, there was a wheel that appeared.

He then waved his hand at dungeon core 627 to get her to come over.

Once she came over, he said, "Come, spin the wheel and make the choice."

Dungeon core 627 was nervous being in front of everyone like this, but she still reached out to spin the wheel.

It went and went until it finally stopped on the symbol of ice which immediately made dungeon core 627 fill with joy.

Dungeon core 627 was an ice golem and her specialty were ice monsters, so having this ice battlefield was naturally an advantage to her. She couldn't believe how lucky she was to be able to get this battlefield.

But those with sharp eyes could naturally see the strangeness with the wheel.

It had suddenly started slowing down at certain times, which was what led it to land on this ice symbol. It was clear that all of this was set up by True Dragon Lord Astaroth.

However, they didn't have any reason to expose him since, so they just let it slide.

As for Haku, she couldn't say anything since if she did, then the consequences would be much greater than one could imagine. That was the problem with being the leader of the friendly faction.

She was about to say something to Lin Fan, but she could see that he was calm even though a battlefield that was disadvantageous to him was selected. So she just said, "Do your best and don't worry about whether you win or lose."

With these words, she walked back to her own faction.

It seemed like True Dragon Lord Astaroth was planning his own moves, so she should also prepare some things…

Lin Fan had been lost in thought, so he hadn't really heard what she said, but soon it was time for the planning phase of the mock dungeon war.

He didn't know why this was all happening, but he had some guesses. Still, since this was happening, he would use this to his advantage.

There were certainly other dungeon cores who would have ideas towards him and Rokuko, so it was better to show off their power to deter them from any further thoughts.

With this in mind, Lin Fan was filled with the determination to win.
