Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 353: 168

Furthermore, rumors have it that behind Argub, there is a Sanctuary Powerhouse. In this Ancient World, while a Dominator can become a Lord, their territories would never span a million miles.

Upon arriving at the Capital City, Logan was astounded by its prosperity. It was hard to comprehend that the city wall stretched over a hundred miles, and every soldier on it emanated an aura of the High-ranking Overstep.

One must know, in Logan’s Goblin Legion, having even one Transcendent Warrior isn’t easy, let alone using them as guards. This shows Argub’s extravagance and fearfulness.

A Throne Strong Individual on the side spoke, “Is this really impressive for a lord as prominent as you?”

“You are just a Mythical Grade, inexperienced, and not knowing that some lords’ territory span tens of millions of miles, with each having Sanctuary Powerhouses as protectors. Dominators are as frequent as hairs on a cow’s back.”

“That’s right, our Lord is capable but not top-notch. He can only be considered as a second-rate lord, as top-class lords must definitely have Sanctuary Powerhouses. However, our lord is almost there.”

Listening to these Throne Strong Individuals, Logan unearthed a profound shock, the quantity of powerful individuals in this Ancient Instance is simply too many. In his original world, Dominators have already reached the pinnacle of combat power, while Sanctuary Powerhouses hardly showed themselves.

After returning to the palace, Argub came over to Logan, “Rest first, we will arrange a feast later.”

Logan nodded and was led by a servant to an atrium to rest and have tea. To his surprise, this ordinary servant was also of Mythical Grade.

After a while, Argub personally greeted Logan. He already acknowledged that Logan saved his daughter and did not harbor any ulterior motives, but there were some questions he needed to ask for sure, just to be extra careful.

“Young friend, please don’t mind me asking, but can you recount the event? I want to know who was trying to harm my daughter.”

Argub’s voice was gentle, he didn’t exert any pressure, this made Logan relaxed a bit because the pressure of a Dominator could make the entire room’s atmosphere go ice-cold.

Logan didn’t beat around the bush, he detailed everything he saw and explicitly mentioned his intentions – he didn’t set out to save anyone, he merely wanted a guide to lead him out of there.

In the face of Logan’s honesty, Argub was stunned for a moment, but then revealed a slight smile. Evidently, he believed Logan’s words and thought highly of Logan’s straightforwardness.

“As a lord, I should reward you. How about I give you a divine weapon? This weapon was strategically made by Throne Strong Individuals and holds considerable power against those who have not yet transcended.”

However, Logan shook his head at Argub’s favor, “I’ve told you, I did not save anyone for the sake of any goods. Besides, normal goods are not attractive to me, so just forget it.”

Upon hearing this, Argub’s eyes changed, clearly interpreting this as Logan making outrageous demands. Logan had quite the appetite, he had already offered such a large chip, yet Logan still wasn’t satisfied.

No matter, given that Logan had saved his daughter’s life and that he himself was a Dominator, offering even bigger rewards wouldn’t be a problem. He couldn’t risk losing face by not meeting Logan’s demands.

Argub thought for a moment before suggesting again, “Alright, how about a Throne Imperial Weapon? It was refined from the blood and bones of Throne Strong Individuals. With it, you virtually have free reign to do as you wish, and virtually no one would dare to provoke you.”

Logan was about to refuse but he halted mid-sentence. Repeatedly declining a Dominator wasn’t wise, lest it angers him and this good fortune turns into a misfortune.

“I have three requests. Firstly, I need a map for a better understanding of the surrounding territories and powers. Secondly, I need to rest here for a month. Lastly, I hope you can give me a pass card.”

Logan continued, “These are my only three requests, you can keep the divine weapon. I’m nothing but a modest Mythical Grade warrior. Even if you give me a Throne Imperial Weapon, I wouldn’t be able to bring out its immense power.”

This left Argub somewhat surprised, these three requests were too trivial, he could fulfill them in an instant. Logan could have accepted his weapon and then made these requests.

Faced with Logan, who seemingly didn’t have any desire, Argub motioned dismissively, “Very well, consider this as me owing you a favor. If you ever encounter difficulties in the future, I will try my best to save your life as a return favor but if you provoke a Sanctuary, there is nothing I can do.”

With that, Argub’s hand flung out a rune. It was a communication talisman he had created himself. As long as Logan breaks this rune, he would perceive Logan’s peril.

Logan accepted it, he had only recently arrived in this Ancient Instance and his strength was still highly inadequate. Having the support of a Dominator gave him confidence, no matter where he went in the future.

“As for your three requests, I will have someone take care of them. If you have other wishes, as long as they can be accomplished within my territory, my servants will definitely try their best to fulfill them.”

Argub and Logan chatted for a while longer. Afterward, Argub wanted to invite Logan to the banquet but Logan refused. Being a Mythical Grade warrior sitting amongst Dominators would draw too much attention. If he caught the eye of someone with an ulterior motive, it would create unnecessary trouble in the future.

Argub didn’t insist, he understood Logan’s concerns. He then arranged for a room for Logan and specifically instructed his servants to send first-rate food over.

After returning to his room, Logan laid down and reflected on the day’s incidents. He had just come to this Instance World, and it had already been an eventful day.

The Instance time lasted one year, and Logan made a plan for himself for this period. He hoped to leap from Mythical Grade to Throne, or even further to Dominator. If not, at least he had to reach High-ranking Overstep. Otherwise, his year of cultivation in this Instance World would be a waste.

However, the future was a complicated path that troubled him. After all, he couldn’t summon the Goblin Legion now, and he had to rely solely on himself. Furthermore, his previous divinities and weapons were all unusable.

After being gloomy for hours, Logan decided not to think about it anymore. There was no point in thinking too much right now, he just had to take things step by step. At least currently, under Argub’s protection, he was safe.

He first needed to understand this Instance World, then find a place to cultivate through battle and quickly increase his strength. There were many opportunities in this Ancient World, with better Rule and order.
