Finally, Lin Tian's one hundred and fifty thousand strong army appeared before the eyes of the Roman Empire's people.
The Great Emperor of the Roman Empire also saw Lin Tian's one hundred and fifty thousand strong army.
Upon seeing Lin Tian's army, this Great Emperor could not help but frown.
He sensed a very strong threat from Lin Tian's army.
Lin Tian's army was clearly a force of elite soldiers.
Such an army, no matter where it went, would have no equals.
The imposing aura they exuded further indicated they were a victorious army.
Such an army was exceedingly rare, and they were also incredibly powerful.
They were so powerful that the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire felt troubled and envious.
In the past, they believed their Roman Empire's army was also invincible, capable of slaughtering wherever they went.
But after seeing Lin Tian's army, he realized how much their Roman Empire's army paled in comparison to Lin Tian's.
Because of this, he was filled with curiosity about Lin Tian's army.
As Lin Tian's army approached, he could not help but ask:
"May I ask where you come from? What is your country called?"
He was indeed filled with curiosity about such a powerful army.
At the same time, he wanted to know if there was a powerful nation behind this formidable army.
If they were backed by a powerful nation, then the Roman Empire would have to be even more cautious in the future.
If something went wrong, the people of that nation might invade their Roman Empire again.
Lin Tian understood the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire's question.
After capturing those crusaders, they had learned some of the Roman Empire's language.
Therefore, communication was not a significant obstacle.
"I presume you are the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire?"
"Since I have come this far, I shall tell you that we come from a distant ancient land in the East!"
"As for the name of our country, it is Da Qin! The Da Qin that unifies all under heaven!!"
"The Da Qin that unifies all under heaven!!"
Upon hearing this, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire felt an inexplicable sense of awe.
He felt as if he saw a supreme overlord standing before him, looking down and declaring their intention to unify the world.
In that instant, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire felt an immense pressure, so much so that his breathing became labored.
Especially when he realized that there was indeed a powerful nation behind Lin Tian's army, he felt a strong sense of crisis.
If Lin Tian's fifteen thousand strong army alone gave him such a powerful sense of danger, then one could only imagine the impact when the entire army of Da Qin descended.
Thus, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire was immediately burdened with a heavy weight.
"An ancient land in the East? I believe I have heard of such a designation!"
"If my memory serves me correctly, there should be an army from our Roman Empire that went to the legendary ancient land in the East!!"
"Indeed, there was such an army, your crusaders! They numbered one hundred thousand and appeared at the borders of our Da Qin, then remained within our territory!!"
"It was they who drew us the maps and guided us to this Roman Empire!!"
"Without their guidance, perhaps we would not have known when we could have reached such a vast land!!"
As Lin Tian spoke, a smile appeared on his face, as if he were quite pleased.
However, while Lin Tian was happy, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire could not help but curse inwardly.
"Damn crusaders, I knew it was your doing!"
"If it weren't for you, how could these detestable enemies have appeared in our Roman Empire!!"
"Damn you, damn you! You truly deserve to die!!"
Learning that it was the crusaders who drew the map that led Lin Tian's army to the Roman Empire, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire's hatred for the crusaders intensified.
If Lin Tian's army had not already arrived at their capital, and if the Roman Empire were not at a moment of life and death, he might have ordered his army to annihilate the crusaders.
However, even if he couldn't do it now, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire vowed to do so next time.
"Just you wait, once I defeat this army, I will deal with you!!"
The Great Emperor of the Roman Empire still decided that after he dealt with Lin Tian's army, he would then deal with the crusaders and the Roman Pope.
He wanted to seize all power into his own hands, to make their Roman Empire even stronger.
Of course, this was merely his contemplation regarding the future development of the Roman Empire.
For their present situation, the most important task was to deal with Lin Tian's army.
Therefore, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire's gaze once again fell upon Lin Tian.
"General, what terms would you require to withdraw your troops?"
"Terms? You want me to state my terms?"
"Yes, state your terms. As long as our Roman Empire can fulfill them, we will surely do so!!"
"Since that is the case, then I shall propose one condition. If you can fulfill it, I will immediately lead my army to retreat!!"
"Alright, speak your mind. No matter how much gold and jewels, this king will satisfy you!!"
Lin Tian's army's record was too terrifying. This made the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire, despite possessing three hundred thousand troops, lack the confidence to completely defeat Lin Tian's army.
If a peace negotiation with Lin Tian's army were possible, he was willing to pay a certain price.
Therefore, he looked at Lin Tian with anticipation, hoping Lin Tian would state his conditions.
Seeing his demeanor, Lin Tian smiled.
"In fact, my condition is very simple. I only require the entire Roman Empire!!"
"The entire…! You arrogant scoundrel! I gave you an opportunity to speak, yet you utter such audacious words! I believe you are seeking death!!"
"I shall open the city gates now. Do you dare to stand there and fight our army?"
At this moment, the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire spoke out in anger, attempting to intimidate Lin Tian in this manner.
In his estimation, Lin Tian would not accept such a request.
After all, his army numbered three hundred thousand, while Lin Tian's army had only one hundred and fifty thousand. Under such circumstances, how could Lin Tian be willing to have his army clash head-on with the Roman Empire's army?
However, Lin Tian's response at this moment was beyond the Great Emperor of the Roman Empire's expectations.
"What is there to fear! We will stand right here. If you have the guts, bring your three hundred thousand troops and charge directly at us. I promise not to retreat!!"
"You…!!"
"Hmph! I will deal with you sooner or later!!"
"Haha! The so-called Great Emperor is merely a timid mouse!!"
The Great Emperor of the Roman Empire's reaction was exactly as Lin Tian had predicted.
This made him laugh heartily.
