As Qi Dong's strength increased, so did the use of the griffon's wings. It is now capable of flying for twenty minutes straight.

It didn't take long for Qi Dong to fly outside the city walls of Quancheng.

As soon as he entered the city gate, a soldier spotted Qi Dong.

A thousand-person long-distance man with the strength of the fourth order of black iron ran over and saluted Qi Dong, "Ten thousand people of Qi Dong, the city lord, please go to the city lord's mansion as soon as you return to the city, and I will show you the way." ”

Qi Dong nodded, he knew that Wang Qinian had already informed the city lord of the situation. The city lord specially sent someone to wait for him here.

Follow the soldiers to the office of the city lord Yao Shun. Without any intention of observing the surrounding environment, he directly entered the conference room of the City Lord's Mansion.

Pushing open the door of the conference room, Qi Dong found that Yao Shun and the four army commanders were there.

"Captain Qi Dong, you're back. We've heard Captain Wang Qinian talk about the general situation, what is the movement of the Zerg outside now? Seeing Qi Dong coming in, Yao Shun couldn't wait to ask.

"It's not sure if they're targeting Springs. They're still gathering together, and I can't estimate the number. But by tomorrow, there will definitely be more than 100,000 of them, just a little more! ”

Yao Shun and the others gasped, the first two alien sieges did not have such a huge number.

"And how strong are they?"

"More than eighty percent are low-level insects, and their strength is not high, from the zero order of black iron to the second order of black iron. But there are still about twenty percent of the bugs that are mid- to high-level bugs, and their strength ranges from the third order of black iron to the ninth order of black iron. Although their number is not as large as the number of soldiers in our Spring City, they have more high-end combat power than us. Tomorrow, there will be more. ”

"Really?"

Several people looked at each other a few times, unable to believe it. This strength is far superior to the alien races that attacked Quancheng in the first two times.

"Of course, I'm still conservative. Let's hope there aren't so many bugs nearby, otherwise if they continue to grow at this rate, they will gather for two more days, and this battle won't have to be fought. Let's take refuge in the prehistoric ruins. ”

Yao Shun smiled bitterly and said, "If we can hide, we want to hide." But there are too many mechanical plants and beasts in the prehistoric ruins, and we haven't cleaned them up. Not to mention the general public, even if elite soldiers go in, it is very dangerous. Besides, we don't have enough food reserves right now. The new type of rice does not get sunlight in the ruins, and the yield is too low. ”

Qi Dong also understands what Yao Shun said.

After discussing it for a while, everyone felt that there was nothing they could do at the moment. You can only send people to observe the movements of the Zerg first and strengthen the defense of Spring City. Limit the soldier's out-of-town missions and keep all soldiers in the city, just in case.

At the same time, Yao Shun also ordered the Demon Hunting Group Management Center to issue a task about the Zerg to the Demon Hunting Group. Let them collect intelligence on the Zerg and hunt the scattered Zerg outside the city.

After doing this, it's not too early.

Just as everyone was about to disperse the meeting and leave, Yao Shun called out to everyone again.

He said, "Ladies and gentlemen, now the head of the First Legion is dead. The Zerg is about to attack, the First Legion can't do without the Legion Leader, I am going to elect one person to be the First Legion Leader, do you have a suitable candidate to recommend? ”

Although he was asking everyone, his eyes kept staring at Qi Dong.

Wang Qinian and Huang Yaowu frowned, but they didn't say anything. They knew that if the lord of the city had already decided, then it would be useless to give an opinion. The commanders of the second and third corps also did not speak, they were Yao Shun's people, so naturally they would not object.

Qi Dong sneered in his heart, he knew Yao Shun's intentions. I'm afraid that Yao Shun has been eyeing the First Legion for a long time, and now he is just raising it through the matter of the Zerg attack.

However, he had little interest in the First Legion. After all, it is the army that Zhan Xiukong has led, even if he gives himself the position of corps commander, he will not be able to command it smoothly.

Seeing that Qi Dong didn't speak, and that he had no intention of getting involved in the First Legion, Yao Shun smiled.

"Okay, since everyone doesn't have a suitable candidate to recommend, then I'll recommend one. Lin Dong, you come in. ”

The door to the conference room opened, and a sturdy man in his mid-thirties entered.

"He is Lin Dong, a 10,000-strong commander of the First Legion. I'm sure you've seen him. He is very familiar with the First Legion, and his military achievements are enough, I propose that he become the new commander of the First Legion, do you have any opinions? ”

The commanders of the second and third corps agreed, but Wang Qinian and Huang Yaowu didn't make a statement, they looked at Qi Dong.

"I don't have a problem with it, but ......" Qi Dong spoke.

"But what?"

"But I also want to start a legion. Now there are still a lot of cannon fodder soldiers in Quancheng, so allocate 100,000 people from the cannon fodder soldiers to me. ”

"Okay, no problem, I'll approve it."

Yao Shun did not hesitate and immediately nodded in agreement. Compared with the control of the First Army, the 100,000 cannon fodder soldiers allocated to Qi Dong who have not been physically strengthened are nothing.

Anyway, it's just cannon fodder, and it plays a limited role on the battlefield. Springs simply don't have the resources to arm them. It's okay to hand them over to Qi Dong. The strength of these 100,000 cannon fodder is far inferior to the two major demon hunting groups under Qi Dong. Maybe they can slow down Qi Dong's development.

This deal is quite suitable, Yao Shun thought to himself.

Seeing that Qi Dong agreed, Wang Qinian and Huang Yaowu also agreed.

After the meeting, Qi Dong and Wang Qinian left with Huang Yaowu. Although Wang Qinian was curious about why Qi Dong wanted 100,000 cannon fodder soldiers, he didn't ask too much, he knew that Qi Dong had his own plans.

Qi Dong naturally knew that the combat effectiveness of this batch of cannon fodder was very low now, and he didn't expect them to have any effect. He was preparing for the establishment of a base city on his own in the future.

When I got back to my barracks, it was getting late. But Qi Lingyun, Lin Hao, Fat Man and other high-level leaders of the demon hunting group and the army were still waiting outside.

Qi Dong told them about the situation of the Zerg and the content of the meeting, and instructed everyone to strengthen their vigilance starting tomorrow. In the past few days, neither the soldiers nor the demon hunters have taken on any missions, and they are ready to fight the Zerg at any time.

…… Early the next morning, Qi Dong woke up early.

As soon as he finished breakfast, he saw the fat man running over in a hurry.

"Boss, it's not good!"

"What's going on, could it be that the Zerg is moving."

"Yes, the soldiers who are monitoring the movements of the Zerg outside the city have discovered that the Zerg army has come to our side, and they ......"

Before the fat man finished speaking, a "quack" sounded in the sky...... Quack......"

"It's the Zerg class, the cry of the Wyvern!"

Qi Dong looked up, and sure enough, he found several flying dragons flying in the sky.

"Knowing the situation of scouting us, there is indeed a king worm in command among these zergs! But they're attacking now and it's not that bad. ”

Qi Dong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the Zerg is attacking now, which means that their forces have almost gathered. It's not too much of an exaggeration compared to what I saw last night.

If they gather for a few more days, their number may be several times that of the current one, and it is not at all something that the current Spring City can resist.

"Immediately notify everyone to get ready for battle!"
