Chapter 453 -454: Extraordinary Martial General Demon
Lin Qian said this and turned to the crowd, “Even though you have restored your strength to normal after taking the refining potion, it’s still not enough…”
At this point, Lin Qian’s eyes turned sharp, his expression stern, “In the wars that the Huaxia Empire wages abroad, what we demand is victory, absolute victory, an overwhelming victory! An invigorating victory! An unstoppable victory!”
“Upon encountering the enemy, we must crush them overwhelmingly.”
Saying this, Lin Qian looked at the people in front of him and shook his head in secret, “Perhaps the four elders might barely meet this standard; Yue Liqun could possibly meet this requirement, but as for the rest of you, you clearly do not meet my expectations.”
“I do not want a drawn-out battle, nor do I need what you call a narrow victory!”
After Lin Qian finished speaking, expressions of dissatisfaction appeared on the faces of those before him, such as Xu Mengqing.
“Your Majesty, I now also possess the Third Level of the Awakening Realm and I am very confident in my ability to conquer the Black Corner Country and slay the strong members of the Black Corner Clan!” Xu Mengqing shouted loudly, “Your Majesty might have capable people; I might not match up to your Majesty, but I believe I will not lose to them.”
After Xu Mengqing finished speaking, Lin Qian laughed out loud, “Hahaha, Xu Mengqing, I highly appreciate such confidence in you, but compared to my generals and War Beast Generals, you still have a long way to go.”
“Perhaps under my training, you might be able to stand on your own in the future, even match them, but for now, you are nowhere near qualified!”
“I don’t believe it!” After Lin Qian spoke, Xu Mengqing bowed and volunteered, “Please grant me the opportunity to prove myself, Your Majesty, to spar with those generals or War Beast Generals you spoke of.”
Lin Qian very much appreciated Xu Mengqing’s confident attitude, believing him to be very worthy of cultivation.
Having enough confidence in himself to face challenges, with such a mindset, once cultivated by the Empire, his strength was bound to make rapid progress.
“Since that is the case, I shall give you this opportunity.” Xu Mengqing, much like Yue Liqun, was also somewhat stubborn, only this stubbornness was much more beneficial than Yue Liqun’s original obstinacy.
This was confidence in one’s own abilities, not fearing challenges. Yue Liqun’s previous stubbornness was about evasion and an unwillingness to confront reality.
In the Huaxia Empire’s vast Xuanhuan Star, on an endless plain, a dense army of soldiers was vigorously waving their sabers in coordinated unison, as though cut from the same mold.
And in front of them stood a tower-like muscular man, his upper body bare, wielding a three-foot-long saber at the forefront of the military formation. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
“Ha!” The muscular man grabbed the one-foot-long hilt of the saber with both hands and shouted angrily, then swung forcefully forward, his arms bulging like mountain ridges, veins popping out like writhing dragons.
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang in the man’s mind, “Fiend, I will transport you away from Xuanhuan Star to do a task for me—to spar with a new citizen of the Empire who is not yet convinced.”
The Emperor’s words made the fiend’s eyes shine, and he knelt on one knee on the spot, his saber thrust into the ground, “At your command, Your Majesty!”
Then, the fiend noticed a white light emerging around him, swirling like a vortex, enveloping his entire body.
“Finally, I can go out and serve His Majesty!” The fiend grinned, baring his pearly white teeth, and let out a loud laugh, feeling utterly exhilarated in his heart.
The next moment, the scene before the fiend completely changed, and he found himself in a strange world. Looking up, there was no sky, only a dome covered in burning oddities.
“Is this the underground world of His Majesty?” Before Lin Qian summoned him from Xuanhuan Star, the demon had been informed of everything.
Lin Qian, after all, could rapidly transmit messages into the minds of every unit under the Huaxia Empire on Xuanhuan Star. As a military officer who was a demon, it was natural for him to know all that he should at this point.
To avoid others seeing the demon appear out of thin air, Lin Qian had summoned him just outside the courtyard gate.
Creak…
The demon reached out to push open the courtyard door in front of him and stepped inside, while at the same time, everyone inside turned their gazes over, curiously sizing him up.
At this moment, Xu Mengqing also stood up and looked towards the muscular bare-chested man who’d entered the yard, guessing that this person was likely to be his next opponent.
“I’ve come to serve His Majesty!” The first thing the demon did upon entering the yard was to salute his Emperor. And he, too, was unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, breathing heavily.
Because he could finally leave Xuanhuan Star and serve His Majesty.
Looking at the tower-like figure before him, a series of familiar scenes from a past life game gradually emerged in his mind, flickering one by one.
Just like the character known as the demon, an intermediate military officer with the blood battle rank; a commander who could oversee infantry of blood battle rank and below.
The demon was also a tremendously powerful military officer, to put it precisely, in Lin Qian’s previous life in the game, the officers he nurtured at that stage were no weaklings.
Watching the figure carrying memories from the past come to life before him, Lin Qian was both thrilled and sentimental, feeling extremely expectant of the upcoming battle with the Black Corner Country.
Although the highest realm of the Imperial Army and War Beast Army Lin Qian could now summon was still the Intermediate Life and Death Heart Realm, their grade had already become intermediate, and while their realm remained the same, their combat strength had significantly improved.
Moreover, Lin Qian could now summon both military officers and War Beast Generals to lead the Imperial Army and War Beast Army into battle, which had greatly enhanced their fighting strength compared to the past.
As soon as the demon appeared, Xu Mengqing’s gaze stayed on him, his expression grave.
Because he could feel that the muscular man baring his arms was no common man, his strength formidable.
“You’re already equipped with Elemental Weapon Armament?” Observing the war saber in the demon’s hand, Xu Mengqing took a deep breath, calling forth his Elemental Artifact Heart and Elemental Components to perform Elemental Weapon Armament.
Soul Power dissipated, and a slender, green-veined saber had already appeared in Xu Mengqing’s right hand; he gripped the hilt tightly, focusing on the demon.
“Get up, fight him, and it will be enough to break his Elemental Weapon Armament,” Lin Qian looked at the demon, told him to stand up and reminded him, “Go easy, try not to hurt him.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Upon hearing Lin Qian’s words, the demon nodded solemnly, turned toward Xu Mengqing, raised the huge war saber in his hand, rested it on his shoulder, and beckoned the other man, “You can make the first move.”
Xu Mengqing’s eyes were intense, staring at the demon before him in silence; his expression turned slightly ugly. The other’s behavior was a blatant contempt for him.
“Very well, if I must comply, I shall do so respectfully,” Xu Mengqing, gripping the Elemental Weapon enveloped in Soul Power, addressed the demon seriously, “Please, go all out and do not hold back.”
Hearing Xu Mengqing’s words, the demon furrowed his brows with some difficulty, “All out? If I use my full strength, I’m afraid one slash might kill you.”
