Best Actor Indeed

"Brother Dustin, I didn't expect you to be so hidden that you could beat the masters of our Pantheon. It's really surprising."

Han Tian looked at Dustin deeply, then smiled and said: "In fact, this matter can't be blamed on you. If you want to blame someone, blame those two guys for not being as skilled as you. As the saying goes, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. It's normal for them to end up like this because of their lack of strength. I'm not visiting you tonight to ask for punishment."

"That's good, that's good."

Dustin breathed a sigh of relief and finally smiled: "Since Lord Han is not here to cause trouble, what advice do you have?"

"To be honest, Brother Dustin, your performance has attracted the attention of our Lord God King. Our Lord God King hopes that you can officially join the Pantheon and help us accomplish our great cause." Han Tian smiled and invited.

"Join the Pantheon?" Dustin was slightly startled, and said hesitantly: "Lord Han, this is not appropriate, right? I am just a wild man in the mountains, how can I be qualified to join the Pantheon?"

"Brother Dustin is too modest." Han Tian took a sip of the teacup, and then smiled: "A genius like you, we in the Pantheon can't wait to welcome you. I can guarantee that as long as you join the Pantheon, you will definitely be trained with emphasis, and you will have endless resources."

Members of the Pantheon are spread all over the world.

Apart from other things, money and resources are endless.

In this regard, no force can compare with the Pantheon.

So he came here tonight with full confidence.

"Lord Han, I appreciate your kindness, but I am used to freedom and don't like being constrained. I think it's better to forget it." Dustin shook his head and declined.

"Brother Dustin, don't rush to refuse."

Han Tian put down the teacup and said seriously: "I can promise you that as long as you join the Pantheon, I will never restrict your actions. On weekdays, you can do anything freely without reporting to me, and I will also provide you with the power and resources of the God Guard level."

"God Guard? Is it very powerful?" Dustin asked curiously.

"God Guard is a special position. In the words of your Dragonmarsh, it is the sect worship. The power is only one level lower than that of the God King. In the Pantheon, it is also a respected existence." Han Tian explained.

"It sounds good." Dustin nodded and smiled: "So what Han Tian means is that I don't have to do anything. As long as I join the Pantheon, I can get a lot of treasures and resources."

"You can understand it this way, but..." Han Tian suddenly changed the subject: "Although the God Guard is free and powerful, at critical moments, it still needs to do a little for the Pantheon, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."

The Pantheon doesn't keep idlers, and they want benefits and everything is good. How can such a good thing happen?

"What is the little thing that Lord Han said? Why not say it clearly?" Dustin remained calm.

He knew that Han Tian would get to the point next.

"Brother Dustin should know that after the end of this martial arts competition, our Pantheon will have an action. Just to be on the safe side, the target and time of this action have not been fully determined."

Han Tian continued to talk: "Before, I didn't know that Brother Dustin was so hidden and there were some shortcomings in the arrangement. If possible, I hope that you will lead the team this time. As long as you complete the task and make contributions, let alone the position of God Guard, even if you are allowed to be a Lord God, it is not a problem to be on an equal footing with me!"

"I didn't expect the Pantheon to attach so much importance to this action. What exactly do you want me to do?" Dustin asked tentatively.

"Brother Dustin, if you want to know the specific task, you have to take this first." Han Tian said, taking out a medicine bottle from his pocket and putting it on the table.

"This is..." Dustin was a little confused.

"Poison." Han Tian was very calm. Seeing Dustin frowning, he immediately added: "Brother Dustin, it's not that I don't trust you, but our Pantheon has its own rules. In order to avoid the leakage of secrets and the failure of the mission, everyone has to take poison, including me. There is no exception."

"So cruel?" Dustin frowned.

"Of course, Brother Dustin, don't worry. As long as you complete the mission, the Lord God will naturally give you the antidote." Han Tian smiled and comforted.

"What if I can't complete it?" Dustin suddenly asked back.

This simple sentence made Han Tian startled slightly, but he quickly recovered his smile and said: "Brother Dustin, don't worry. Our Pantheon has a very careful plan. As long as we act step by step, there will be no problem."

"Lord Han, although I am quite tempted by the conditions of the Pantheon, I am more concerned about my own safety. I will not let my life be in the hands of others, so I can only refuse your kindness." After a little thought, Dustin finally chose to shake his head.

He was not afraid of poison, but wanted to retreat in order to advance and win the trust of the Pantheon.

After all, normal people would most likely choose to retreat in the face of such conditions. If they were too eager to risk their lives, the Pantheon would definitely be suspicious, which would be bad.

As expected, after hearing this, Han Tian was not only not unhappy at all, but laughed even happier.

If Dustin agreed immediately, he would suspect that the other party had ulterior motives. Now, he trusted the other party even more. - Ton

Trouble Arrives at the Door

“I was quite surprised that I managed to bring back the Dragon Source Qi so smoothly this time. Honestly, I was even prepared to fall out completely with Li Juntang,” said Dustin. “Oh? How so?” Margarert raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. Dustin didn't hold back. He carefully recounted everything that had happened, including Li Juntang’s sudden and unusual friendliness, as well as Hongniang’s intervention and her decision to follow him. “What do you think Li Juntang is really up to? He was incredibly suspicious of me just a day before --- nearly fought me --- yet the next day he completely changed, became overly friendly, and even gifted me one of the great beauties from the Rouge List. It's baffling.” Dustin shook his head. “In my view, this probably has something to do with Li Juntang’s mother, Consort Spanner,” Margarert said after a moment of contemplation. “Consort Spanner is shrewd and calculating. She must have realized that Li Juntang isn't your match...

Confused

“But... I’m not willing to accept this!” Li Juntang gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with deep resentment. He was so close to succeeding --- why did his father have to interfere at such a crucial moment? Could it be that his father never intended to make him the crown prince? Had all the previous favoritism and preferential treatment just been an act? “Son, to accomplish great things, you must have patience. You must never act impulsively,” Consort Spanner advised him earnestly. “One defeat is nothing; losing a bit of treasure isn’t worth mentioning. As long as you are safe, there will always be another opportunity. The Spanner family and I will always support you.” Hearing this, Li Juntang’s expression finally softened a little. Although he did not have the dragon source energy and the national destiny, he still had his mother, the powerful Spanner clan, and the network of connections he had painstakingly built over the years. With all these advantages, he could s...

Devise Strategies

Wu Yong stumbled into Li Juntang Hall’s courtyard, drenched in sweat, his clothes soaked through, and a lingering expression of terror still etched on his face. Inside, Li Juntang was seated at his desk, lost in thought under the dim light of a solitary lamp. At the sound of hurried footsteps, his brow furrowed, and he looked up to see who had come. “Your… Your Highness! Something terrible has happened!” Wu Yong burst through the door in a panic, completely disregarding any form of etiquette. “What is it?” Li Juntang frowned, his expression turning displeased. The estate was so large that the earlier sound of the door being broken down hadn’t even alarmed him. “Your Highness, just now, the Pantheon’s God-Kings --- Zeus and Hera --- suddenly stormed in and attacked us! General Zhang He tried to stop them, but Zeus merely raised his hand and summoned a bolt of lightning. General Zhang… General Zhang was killed instantly!” Wu Yong forced himself to push down his fear and quick...
