Gods: Start with Goblins

When Luo Dan saw his attire, he knew why he was robbed.

Dressed so ostentatiously, it would be strange if you didn't get robbed.

The two men stepped forward to uphold justice, and in no time they beat up the bandits and rescued the man.

The wealthy man never thought that when he was robbed outside, someone would actually save him. He immediately expressed his gratitude to the two men again and again.

When the two were about to leave, the wealthy businessman suddenly spoke.

"My two heroes, I see that you are very agile and must not be ordinary people. Please save my daughter. I will give you as much money as you want!"

When Luo Dan heard this, he turned around and raised his eyebrows curiously.

"What happened? Was your daughter captured by bandits?"

The rich businessman shook his head like a drum and explained, "There has been a strange phenomenon in our town recently. There are often young women who don't eat or drink and just want to go out to sea all day."

"My daughter is not the first person to be possessed by evil spirits. Many women before her wanted to go out to sea, but every time they went out to sea, they jumped into the sea. Some were rescued, but some drowned in the sea."

"My wife and I had no choice but to take our daughter out to sea, but that wasn't the end, because after we went out to sea, he jumped into the sea like other women. We spent a lot of effort to rescue her. We dare not let her go out to sea again, and let her stay at home all day."

The rich businessman sighed when he said this, with an unremovable sadness between his brows.

"But keeping her at home hasn't helped. She hasn't eaten in almost two days, and she's getting thinner and thinner. We really don't have any other options. If you two have any ideas, please help us."

In response to the rich businessman's sincere request, Luo Dan decided to accept the commission.

Mainly, he was very curious about this phenomenon and planned to go and see for himself why it happened.

The two quickly followed the rich businessman to the small town, and it was obvious that the rich businessman was indeed a nouveau riche.

His house was magnificent and very large, and it was obvious at first glance that he was extremely wealthy.

Luo Dan felt that the world of rich people was indeed different.

He went to the rich businessman's daughter's boudoir and stopped just as he reached the door.

The rich businessman felt anxious when he saw that Luo Dan did not push the door open.

"What's wrong, hero? My daughter is in there. Why don't you go in and take a look?"

Although he hadn't pushed the door open yet, Luo Dan had already vaguely sensed the presence of a formation at the door, but that formation was hidden very cleverly.

For a moment, he couldn't grasp the source.

"Okay, let's go in and take a look."

After saying this, Luo Dan took the initiative to push the door open and saw a thin woman sitting on the bed, motionless with empty eyes.

"Sir, this is my daughter. Please diagnose her for me."

Luo Dan walked forward. The possessed woman just lay there motionless, as if she had lost her soul, staring at the floor with empty eyes.

When they were only two meters away from each other, Luo Dan felt that a spell had been cast in her body with blood as its formation.

However, this spell formation is not positive, but a formation that can steal people's essence.

These formations are similar to the ones he had learned, except that he used them for attack, while the formation used by the rich merchant's daughter in front of him was used to steal other people's vitality.

Luo Dan stood there and thought for a while. This formation definitely couldn't have appeared suddenly. Someone must be operating it in secret.

He turned to look at the wealthy businessman and tried to comfort him.

"This isn't a very serious matter, but we have to find the source. How about I rest in your house tonight and investigate. If I find anything, I'll tell you as soon as possible."

Hearing Luo Dan's responsible answer, the rich businessman readily agreed and ordered people to prepare a sumptuous dinner for the two.

After dinner, Pei Sheng returned to the house, scratched his head and asked curiously.

"Captain Luo, did you see anything?"

Luo Dan nodded and told Pei Sheng his guess.

Pei Sheng was confused after hearing this, because he didn't know much about formations, so he decided to trust Luo Dan.

"Although I'm not very clear about this, if there's anything I can do to help, please feel free to call me."

Late at night.

Luodan was meditating and resting when he suddenly opened his eyes.

He felt from the spiritual senses distributed around the rich merchant's daughter's boudoir that she had left the room and was walking out of the mansion.

Luo Dan quickly turned over, tidied himself up casually, called Pei Sheng, and went out to look for the rich businessman's daughter.

After some searching, they finally found the rich merchant's daughter walking towards the bottom of the sea with empty eyes on the beach.

When Luo Dan found her, the sea water had already reached her chest.

I couldn’t imagine whether the rich merchant’s daughter could have returned alive if she had arrived a little later.

Luo Dan immediately stepped forward and rescued the rich businessman's daughter who was about to be drowned by the sea water. He brought her to the shore and asked Pei Sheng to take good care of her.

However, watching the waves hitting the shore one after another, Luodan realized that this matter was definitely not that simple.

If the common trait of these women is that they want to go into the sea, then there must be something under the sea that tempts them.

As soon as he entered the sea, Luodan felt something was wrong.

There was something strange about the sea, and visibility was not very high. The water was not azure blue. The deeper you swam, the darker it became, as if you had entered some dirty quagmire, making it impossible to tell the way forward or see the direction.

This sea really does seem amiss...

Luo Dan's eyes darkened, and something strange flashed across his eyes.

Afterwards, he made a magic gesture for himself so that he could see the way ahead a little more clearly.

The sea monster is very large, and its body is so huge that its limbs and head cannot be distinguished.

It is diving, perhaps giving up the idea of ​​foraging and finding other ways to go.

Luo Dan was unwilling to give up this opportunity and planned to follow him directly.

Xiaohua is worried.

"Master, this is underwater, not on land. Are you sure you want to follow? What if something goes wrong..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Luo Dan's inner voice.

"Xiaohua, all signs indicate that the cause of everything is in this sea. If we don't investigate under the sea, we will never know the true face of this monster, nor will we know where it came from. We have been asked by those people to take money and eliminate disasters for them. In short, we must find out the truth about the sea monster."

The spirit pets wanted to stop it, but Luodan insisted on his own way in this matter.

"Don't worry, if anything goes wrong, I will leave the sea immediately and won't put myself in danger easily."

The spirit pets didn't know whether they believed this or not. They only knew that once the master made up his mind, no one could persuade him, and in the end they could only remain silent.

Of course, they can't leave and will definitely follow their owners.

No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, they will never leave.

Luodan calmed his pet and soon caught up with the sea monster.

The sea monster is very slow, perhaps because of its huge size.

Luodan had been following carefully, perhaps because he had hidden his spiritual energy and his body was relatively small, the sea monster had not noticed him.

The shadow just kept descending.

It has dropped to the point where even the spirit pet is a little worried.

"Master, where is this monster going? It's already so deep in the sea. You are a human, not a sea monster. If you continue like this..."

Xiao Bai hasn't finished speaking yet, but the worry in his words is self-evident.

Luo Dan's eyes darkened, and a trace of worry flashed across his brows, then quickly disappeared.

He knew that the situation was not in his favor, but he had finally discovered the sea monster and had already tracked it here. He couldn't just give up halfway.

Once you give up, all your previous efforts will be wasted.

There are undoubtedly two paths before Luodan: forward or backward.

Luo Dan clenched his fists, thought seriously, and finally overcame his fear of the unknown. "I know your concerns. If we continue to dive with this sea monster, we may be able to find its base camp. Xiao Bai Xiao Hua, we have finally found the figure of this sea monster. We must not lose it. So, no matter what the origin of this sea monster is and what kind of danger it poses, we must follow it today."

"Besides, believe in your master, and your master has confidence in himself. I don't think things will go as planned. Even if I really face this sea monster, I am not completely unsure. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. I must see his true face!"

Seeing that they couldn't persuade their master, the spirit pets were actually a little worried.

The sea is different from the land. Even with their current strength, the strength they can exert at sea is far less than that on land.

This is not their main battlefield and they are likely to hinder their owners.

Besides, the master himself is a human, not a sea creature.

Is it really worth taking such a risk to find out the truth?
The spirit pet doesn’t understand and is worried.

But no matter how worried they were, since their owner insisted on doing so, they had no choice but to accept it.

In the end, both Little White and Little Flower remained silent, their worry only lasting until it faded away.

Being able to sense his own spirit pets, Luo Dan certainly knew their dissatisfaction.

But I can only sigh in my heart. After all, it has come to this. What else can I do?

He must find out the truth about the sea monster, so taking risks is inevitable.

"You have to protect yourselves too. The depth under the sea is getting deeper and deeper now. It's not suitable for you to come out. If something goes wrong at that time, you just have to protect yourselves."

After hearing this, Xiaobai and Xiaohua were moved. The resentment they had just felt faded away, and they were moved and helpless again.

It seems that the owner is not stupid and knows the danger, but he still insists on doing it.

While he insisted on doing what he wanted, he also knew how to consider his two spirit pets.

Now, they are in a dilemma, neither loving nor hating it.

But in the end, they made up their minds that if anything happened to their owner, they would definitely help.

As the spiritual pets of their masters, they originally shared prosperity together.

Later on, Luodan stopped communicating with his spirit pet.

He was completely focused on this sea monster and noticed that the depth of the sea was getting lower and lower.

In order to avoid being discovered by this sea monster, you have to be extra careful.

Once the sea monster reaches a deep place, its swimming speed suddenly increases, and it heads in a certain direction. Such a huge shadow goes straight forward.

Luo Dan was a little anxious, and subconsciously sped up, trying to catch up.

After all, the other party's body is so huge that if it disappears all of a sudden, it would be extremely difficult to find it in this vast ocean.

But perhaps because it was difficult to see things at the depth of the sea, or perhaps because the sea monster was moving too fast, Lordan was a little too hasty.

When he was halfway through the chase and reached the bottom of the sea, he was suddenly entangled by seaweed. The seaweed wrapped around his calves and restricted his movements.

It wasn't just grabbing him, it was attacking him premeditatedly.

If it was just some ordinary water plants, he would not take it seriously at all.

But this is on the seabed after all, not on the mainland. Water plants can be said to be the kings of the seabed, and we can let them shuttle back and forth.

After all, Luodan was not a native sea creature, and he was caught off guard and fell into their trap.

Before I could react, I was suddenly entangled by seaweed.

It turned out that they came from all directions from the depths of the sea. Because the seabed was too dark, not many of them were seen. In addition, water plants suddenly appeared. By the time Luodan reacted, it was too late.

"Owner!"

In the space, Xiaobai and Xiaohua made worried voices almost at the same time.

"I am fine."

While comforting them, Luodan tried to find a way to break free from the water plants.

"It's just a mere waterweed. It's no match for me."

As he said this, he flipped backwards a few times to avoid the water plants that were reaching towards him.

The water grass that came later missed, but because the water grass was very elastic, the water grass that had tied him up before did not break because of his struggle.

"I didn't expect these water plants to be so ductile. I underestimated them."

However, even though his hands and feet were entangled, Luo Dan was not worried at all. Instead, he complained with interest.

It was as if it was someone else who was tied up, not himself.

Seeing how interested he was, Xiaohua and Xiaobai couldn't help but frown.

"Master, please be more careful. You are the one who is tied up now. Why don't you care about yourself and look down on Shu Cao?"

Xiaohua was almost laughing out of anger. What a thick-skinned master this is.

"Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures to deal with them."

Luo Dan raised his eyebrows, his expression extremely relaxed.

Xiaohua and Xiaobai just relaxed, but then they became alert again.

"Master, what can you do to deal with these water plants?"

"If we were on land, we could use fire to burn it, but all plants are afraid of fire. However, this is on the seabed, not on the mainland. Even the biggest fire won't burn it!"

Due to the surrounding environment, fire attack is completely useless.

Therefore, neither of the two spirit pets believed that Luodan had any solution.

Apart from using fire, is there any other way to resolve it?
"Of course I have a way. If fire can't be used, can I use ice or electricity?"

Even under the sea, there are still ways.

He simply set up a magic circle to cover all the aquatic plants.

He muttered something, and then a layer of frost covered the water plants and gradually froze.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he broke the ice and cut off all the water plants.

Seeing this, Xiaohua and Xiaobai felt incredible and also thought it was very handsome.

"Wow, Master, you are so amazing, I didn't expect there is such a method!"

"I didn't expect that I could freeze water at the bottom of the sea. My master is indeed worthy of me. He is gifted. Ordinary people may not be able to do it."

Regardless of the control and targeting of objects, or the increased difficulty of operating underwater, the skill he showed was very valuable.

"It's nothing. I don't know if you have ever heard that salt water can conduct electricity."

They had never heard of this before and looked at each other in confusion.

"Master, what does this mean?"

"Nothing, I just want to try the taste of roasted water plants."

After saying that, he released another burst of electric current, and the purpose was very clear, which was to target these water plants. The bodies of the water plants began to shake violently, and they dared not entangle with Luodan anymore, because they all discovered that Luodan was the source.

So he left Lodan without saying a word and headed back to his cave.

These water plants are not stupid. Although they want to hunt Luodan, they see how difficult the prey is, so their first reaction is naturally to run away.

And as a biological instinct, their idea is to run back to the cave.

But this idea was not naive at all, it just happened to fall into Luodan's trap.

Luodan folded his arms across his chest and sank to the bottom of the sea, watching the scene below leisurely.

The water plants retracted into their caves, and the next second, the large area where they were located was directly electrocuted.

Some innocent aquatic plants were also affected and were electrocuted one after another.

After all, these water plants are social creatures, usually growing together in large clumps, so they will naturally stick together when electrocuted, and none of them can escape. (End of this chapter)
