Gods: Start with Goblins

"With the two of you here, my imperial city will be safe!"

The emperor was extremely happy to have these two new generals join him.

The two were often praised as talented and had gotten used to it, so they did not look very excited. Instead, they looked humble and calm.

The emperor saw it all and felt even more moved.

As expected, they are all chosen by heaven, different from ordinary people.

Lin Feixue is fine, after all, he is the beloved disciple of Luoxue Sect and a top-notch genius.

But I had never heard of this Luodan before, and I didn’t expect that he was also a top figure.

Despite his young age, his cultivation is not inferior to Lin Feixue.

The emperor stroked his beard, and a deep look flashed in his eyes.

At this critical moment in the imperial city, God sent him such a person. Perhaps, it was God's favor to him and the luck he was given.

Since Luo Dan has reached the peak of the eighth level of the Holy See, it would be a pity and a disgrace to let him be an ordinary soldier.

The emperor kept the man, but he was not unaware of the need to treat his subordinates well.

So, he waved his hand and directly granted Luodan the military power.

"Luo Dan, although you are young, I believe you are a promising talent. You will lead an elite group of soldiers to protect the safety of the imperial city."

Hearing this, Luo Dan was quite shocked and looked up.

There were also some ministers below who were surprised when they heard this.

"Your Majesty, although this Young Master Luo is very powerful, he is from outside after all, and is not from the Imperial City. How can he just hand over his military power so easily?"

It’s not that he doesn’t believe in Luo Dan, but that’s actually the meaning.

After all, Luodan was parachuted in and is an outsider. How can he compare to our own people?

If this person is a spy or has any ill intentions, and holds military power, he will pose a threat to the entire imperial city.

But the emperor waved his hand.

"No need to say more, I have made up my mind, and this is what I should do."

If you don't win over a talented master and instead push him away, the result will be counterproductive. If you want to win him over, you have to act like one.

Military power is only the first step. After all, all the high-ranking officials of the Holy See under him are leaders of their own factions. Even if Luodan is an outsider, he has a high level of cultivation. We can't let a strong man of the eighth level of the Holy See be a small follower or a soldier. In the end, will this win people over or offend them?
The emperor is not stupid, and he would not do such a foolish thing.

Therefore, no matter how other ministers refuted or how cautious they were.

He still insisted on his own way.

"My dear ministers, please stop talking. I am willing to believe Young Master Luo. You should know that Young Master Luo came all the way here to tell us the news. He is loyal to our human race no matter what, and he has a sense of the overall situation. Shouldn't such a person be rewarded? If it weren't for his bad luck, I should have given him more rewards. It's a pity that the war is imminent, so I can only let him lead an elite army. Young Master Luo, I have treated you poorly."

But Luodan did not feel treated badly. He was quite pleased with the emperor's appreciation and trust, and bowed to him solemnly.

"Since the emperor is willing to trust me, I will definitely protect the safety of the imperial city."

Originally, it was just out of human relations, so I just wanted to lend a helping hand.

Not to mention that it is a piece of cake. If any accident happens in the imperial city, the whole world will be in chaos, and there will be no benefit for him as a human.

But I didn't expect that the emperor trusted me so much and sent me an army.

Since the other party thought so highly of him, Luo Dan's attitude naturally changed. No matter what, he would do his best.

As long as his own life is not threatened, he will do his best to protect the imperial city.

"Okay, okay, I really didn't misjudge you."

The emperor was naturally very happy to receive such a reply.

Putting aside his other abilities, he is very good at winning people's hearts.

Especially when it comes to masters, the emperor has always had unlimited trust and patience.

In this way, the arrangements regarding Luo Dan and Lin Feixue were basically completed. Both sides led an elite team. The elite team was different from ordinary soldiers. It seemed that they were just leading a team.

However, anyone who can enter the elite team is at least of the Holy See class.

Below this is the ordinary team.

The emperor is able to entrust such an important team to them, which shows his trust in them.

When Lin Feixue heard the emperor's appointment of her, she also bowed to him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will work hard to protect the imperial city."

All human beings in the world are united, and everyone has a responsibility to fight against the demons.

Luodan got his token and went to meet his team first.

Once you have a team, you should be responsible for it. Now he hasn't even met them yet, so he thinks he should meet them first.

When we arrived at our destination, we found that it was a vast wilderness.

The palace servant who led him explained.

"Captain Luo, this is where the elite teams are training. They are all training right now. You can just go over there."

"Good work."

He nodded casually, then walked forward and saw a group of people training.

These should be the elite soldiers.

After some investigation, I found that the levels of these people are not weak. Most of them are at the first level of the Holy See, and there are a few at the second and third levels. The highest is the third level.

However, being able to reach the Holy See level is already considered elite.

They were training, and their moves were powerful and fierce, without a trace of hesitation or fear in their eyes.

Luo Dan watched for a while, and only walked up when they had almost finished the rehearsal.

At this time, the members of this elite team naturally discovered him.

They looked him up and down, with inquiring and dissatisfied expressions on their faces.

"Are you our new captain?"

Luo Dan did not release his pressure, and they did not know his strength.

The leader on the third floor sneered.

"I thought he was such a powerful figure, but he doesn't seem that great. He's just a pretty boy. I don't know why the emperor would choose a pretty boy to lead us. Boy, do you know what the elite team is? Do you think you can become our captain just by using the backdoor? If you want to become our captain, you have to pass this level!"

As he spoke, the man waved the weapon in his hand, full of provocation.

This soldier on the third floor of the Holy See had originally coveted the position of captain.

Their captain position has not been decided since the previous captain died.

He has the best ability, the highest level of cultivation, and the longest experience, so he should be the most suitable candidate no matter how you look at it. But suddenly a man named Luodan, who was unknown to anyone, appeared and became their captain, and it was by the emperor's order.

To be honest, most people here feel dissatisfied, especially those on the third floor of the Holy See.

He was already considered a genius after practicing to this level, and he thought the position of captain was a sure thing. However, he didn't expect that before it fell to him, it was taken away by others?
Therefore, he regarded the new captain as a thorn in his side. He disliked him as much as he could.

He is now provoking the other party and even wants to scare him away. As long as the other party voluntarily resigns, the emperor will not say anything, and he can naturally become the captain of the elite soldiers.

The third level of the Holy See had a good idea, but unfortunately, he was too arrogant.

We underestimated the enemy too much.

He thought that the person who came was at most a third-level Holy See, but he never expected that the strength of the person in front of him was far beyond his reach, and was at a level that he could never reach.

"You mean you want to duel with me? Are you really sick of me being the captain?"

"That's right, make your move. Whoever wins will be the captain. No matter where you are, strength is respected. Regardless of whether you are the one ordered by the emperor or not, you should get the permission of our brothers before you can sit on the captain's seat."

As he spoke, the man had already pointed the spear at him, his eyes sharp.

But Luo Dan just pushed the spear away with a light push of his hand.

"If it were any other time, I might have time to tease and play with you, but now it's a matter of life and death. I'm sure you've heard about the demons, and I don't want to waste any of your manpower. Forget about the duel."

As he spoke, he naturally released his majesty, the pressure of the eighth level of the Holy See, without hiding anything, also to teach them a lesson.

If these people are not taught a profound lesson, they will not admire themselves.

When the pressure came, almost everyone couldn't help but kneel down.

They didn't want to kneel, but the pressure was too terrifying, forcing them to kneel.

With such a huge disparity in rank, they had no choice but to kneel in a row.

At this moment, there was no arrogance on the faces of these elite soldiers, only shock.

"You, how did you do it? How could this happen?"

"Idiot, can't you sense that he is much stronger than us?"

"I see. No wonder the Emperor appointed him as the captain."

The elite soldiers whispered.

The people on the third floor of the Holy Throne had turned pale at this moment.

He thinks he is a genius and the best among so many people.

But facing the pressure from this man, he couldn't even stand up.

It can be seen that the opponent's cultivation is more than a little bit higher than his. The elite soldiers all respect the strong, and only the strong can lead them. Once they are strong enough to keep a distance, no matter how unwilling the third level of the Holy See is, they dare not openly oppose the opponent.

Finally, he sighed deeply, lowered his eyes, and chose to admit defeat.

"I lost."

Then he cupped his hands.

Seeing this, Luo Dan said nothing more and withdrew his pressure.

At this moment, the elite soldiers could finally breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had been reborn.

The third-level Holy Throne no longer had any complaints, only full of admiration.

"I know I was blind just now and disturbed the captain. Please forgive me, captain."

After saying that, he kowtowed heavily to him.

"It's okay. I can't blame you. I know that elite soldiers are respected by the strong. No matter where you go, it's the same principle. You have such a heart. It's not wrong for you not to obey me, an airborne person. However, since you already know my strength, from today on, I hope you can obey me well and don't do the same thing again!"

"Yes."

These people spoke in unison, without any objection in their eyes.

After everyone finished saying this, a weak voice came from among them.

"Um, let me ask you something, Captain, what rank are you at now?"

It is difficult for those of lower levels to detect those of higher levels. They can only know that the other party's cultivation is much higher than theirs, but they don't know how much.

Luo Dan smiled slightly and uttered a few words.

"The eighth floor of the Holy Throne."

Everyone gasped.

"peak."

He took another breath.

"Captain, look at how old he is, but he has already reached the eighth level of the Holy See. No, this is too incredible!"

If it weren't for the fact that one's appearance cannot be changed at the Holy See level, they would have thought that the person standing in front of them was some old monster. Otherwise, how could someone so young reach the eighth level of the Holy See? He could only be a genius among geniuses.

No wonder the emperor appointed him as the captain of the team. It turns out he has such ability.

Elite soldiers all admire people with abilities, and Luodan is undoubtedly one of them.

"The captain is so brave, we are far behind him."

The man on the third floor of the Holy Throne had already started to flatter him.

The others glanced at the third floor with a hint of contempt in their eyes.

You bootlicker, this is happening too fast.

However, other people are also shocked. If the other person is only a little bit different from you, you might even feel provocative.

However, once the gap is too big, jealousy is no longer enough and only envy remains.

The elite soldiers looked at him with envy, some even looking up to him.

"Captain, you are so amazing! It's true that heroes emerge from youth!"

"Captain, I have to admire you. After seeing you, I realized that there are always people better than you, and there are geniuses everywhere. I was really too arrogant!"

"It's nothing. Everyone has their own opportunities. You are considered outstanding among ordinary people, and there may be people who are more powerful than me. No one can be said to be the best. I just hope that everyone can encourage each other with me and fight against the demons together."

The morale of the elite soldiers was immediately boosted, and they all raised their hands and shouted.

"Let's fight the demons together. Let's fight the demons together!"

Seeing that everyone was so enthusiastic, Luo Dan nodded, feeling quite relieved.

"Very good, soldiers, I want to ask you, why do you stay here? In fact, with your cultivation, even if you are not a guard, you can live a prosperous life anywhere. But now that you know that the demons are invading, you still resolutely stay here. Why?"

Luodan was a little curious about this, so he suddenly asked this question.

Everyone looked at each other, as if they were exploring each other's thoughts.

Then, the person on the third floor of the Holy Throne spoke first.

"I know I can leave, but this is my hometown, my motherland. If I leave here and leave my hometown, where can I go? If I don't help it, I will have a guilty conscience for the rest of my life. After all, our ancestors have taken root here for generations. This is our root!"

"Me too, this is my home, how can I not protect it?" (End of this chapter)
