Chapter 286: A Year of Change

One year and one month, this is the time it took Qi Dong to crack the second layer of the central control array.

He himself had long forgotten the time, and only knew the exact time through the space watch.

"I don't know what's going on outside." He smiled: "It's time to go out, everyone must be in a hurry, go out and surprise them." ”

Qi Dong didn't know that when he successfully cracked the second layer just now, the Xingli Hall was full of color. Everyone in the entire Xingli Hall and Regios below saw the vision on the Xingli Palace, and the higher-ups could easily judge that Qi Dong had succeeded.

As soon as he left the central hall, Qi Dong was stunned.

He found that outside the central hall, more than a dozen acquaintances had gathered, and looking at their appearance, it was obvious that they were waiting for him.

"Xiaodong, you have finally come out of the customs, we are worried about you after being in retreat for so long." Qi Dong's parents rushed up and grabbed Qi Dong's hand.

"Brother, you've been in retreat for too long, hehe, you've been running away for so long, it's time to find a girlfriend." Qi Lingyun's eyes purred, and Qi Dong quipped.

"Qi Dong, welcome out." Mei Yinxue smiled.

"Boss, I have made a lot of progress during your retreat, if you stay in retreat for a longer time, I will surpass you." The fat man proudly showed off the muscles in his lower arms.

……

"Everyone." Qi Dong's eyes were a little moist, and he hugged his parents. "How do you know I'm out?"

"Just now, there was a colorful light in the sky above the Xingli Palace, and we guessed that you came out." Lin Luo walked up and said.

"I see." Qi Dong glanced at everyone and found that many people were not inside, probably in other bases or on missions outside.

"Everyone's strength is improving very quickly."

He found that everyone's strength had improved a lot, especially Mei Yinxue, who had reached the first silver rank. The others were not weak, Qi Lingyun, Fat Man, Lin Luo and others had all reached the ninth bronze rank, and were accumulating strength and preparing to break through to the silver level. His parents have reached the seventh bronze order, and in the past year, they have not only not looked old, but have become younger and stronger.

"Well, we're not idle." Mei Yinxue took a closer look at Qi Dong, "Hey, I can't even see through your strength, you were obviously a silver first-order before the retreat, and like me now, it seems that you have made a lot of progress in the past year." ”

"It's worthy of being the boss, cracking the control talisman array can also improve your strength, what level do you have." The fat man said with a funny expression of admiration.

"Hehe, you." Qi Dong shook his head and smiled, seeing that there was no change in everyone, and seeing that the fat man was still so funny, he felt a burst of warmth. At the same time, he could tell from the expressions on everyone's faces that in the past year, they had been doing well, and no familiar people had died.

"My current strength, well, seems to be the fourth order of silver."

"What? Silver Fourth Order? Mei Yinxue exclaimed, she never expected that Qi Dong had actually improved to the third order in the year that Qi Dong had cracked the talisman array. You must know that it is quite difficult to improve to the silver level, if you give yourself a year, even if you don't do anything else and use it for cultivation, you may not be able to advance to the fourth silver level. But Qi Dong, while cracking the talisman array, her strength can still improve so quickly, she exclaimed Qi Dong's perversion in her heart.

"The boss is the boss." The fat man was dumbfounded: "It seems that no matter how hard I try, I have no hope of surpassing you." ”

"Hmph, of course, don't look at who he is." Qi Lingyun grabbed Qi Dong's arm and smiled proudly.

Da Da Da ......

Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves.

"Where did the sound of horses' hooves come from?" Qi Dong was stunned.

"Hehe, it must be Sister Mei Jiangxue who is here." Qi Lingyun grinned: "Sister Mei Jiangxue went to Shencheng some time ago, and before leaving, she told her a thousand times, if you go out of the customs, let me notify her through the contact device as soon as possible." ”

"And how did she come on horseback?" Qi Dong said curiously, although he heard the sound of horses' hooves, he had not yet seen Mei Jiangxue's shadow, it could be seen that this sound came from a long distance, could it be some kind of demonic beast, similar to the horse-like demonic beast of the horned demon horse?

"Hee-hee, you'll find out right away."

Da-da-da-da.

The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer.

In mid-air, a figure riding on the back of some kind of mount was getting closer and closer, and that figure was none other than Mei Jiangxue.

"Sister Jiangxue." Qi Lingyun waved at her.

"Huh, that's, Mo Qilin?" As Mei Jiangxue approached, Qi Dong saw clearly that Mei Jiangxue's mount was not the magical beast he imagined. It looks like a deer, has a pair of horns on its head, its whole body is covered with black scale armor, and its tail is like an ox's tail, like an ink unicorn.

He is no stranger to this ink unicorn, because this ink unicorn was obtained when he obtained the inheritance of the Thunder God Puhua Tianzun in the Ziwei Palace of the Immortal Yuan Cave Heaven. At that time, it was a young unicorn, and after he brought it back to unseal, because the unicorn was too young, it was inconvenient for him to go out, so he sent it to Mei Jiangxue, but he didn't expect that a year later, the ink unicorn grew up.

If he hadn't seen the Ink Qilin today, he would have forgotten the existence of the Ink Qilin a long time ago.

When she was still more than a hundred meters away from Qi Dong, Mei Jiangxue jumped up from Mo Qilin's back, her body scurried, leaving a phantom in the air, and appeared in front of Qi Dong in an instant.

"Brother Qi, welcome out." Her eyes were red.

"Hmm." Qi Dong nodded at her and took the initiative to hug her.

Qi Dong's parents looked at them with a smile, especially looking at Mei Jiangxue, whose eyes were full of love, as if they had regarded her as a daughter-in-law.

"Jiangxue, your strength has improved very quickly." After hugging Mei Jiangxue, Qi Dong was a little surprised, he found that Mei Jiangxue's strength was actually one order higher than her sister's, reaching the second order of silver, this upgrade speed is too fast.

"Hehe, thanks to Brother Qi's Ink Qilin, when it's next to it, I don't know why, when I cultivate, it's unimpeded, and there are almost no bottlenecks."

Qi Dong was clear, he remembered the information he got when he obtained the Ink Qilin, as an auspicious rui, the Ink Qilin can bring good luck to the master and increase luck. The theory of luck, although it is ethereal, but Qi Dong believes in its existence in his heart, it can be said that after being reborn, he will try to believe in anything that is inconceivable in the eyes of others.

"The level of the ink unicorn is not low." Qi Dong found that the level of the Mo Qilin was the same as that of Mei Jiangxue, and they had reached the second order of silver. Good guys, it was a juvenile a year ago, and it upgraded too quickly.

"Because it can be eaten." Mei Jiangxue sneered: "This kid is eating spirit stones all the time, can you not be happy to improve your strength." ”

"Eating spirit stones?" Sure enough, it is worthy of being a spirit beast, it is auspicious, and he and the others only dare to slowly absorb the aura of heaven and earth in the spirit stone, where do they dare to eat it directly.

"By the way, Brother Qi, Sister Blade is also here with me." Mei Jiangxue said suddenly.

"Blade, where?"

"Behind you." A cold voice suddenly remembered.

Qi Dong was startled, and when he looked back, sure enough, the Blade Empress was behind him, only half a meter away from him.

"You ......" He was shocked, he didn't even notice the existence of the Blade Empress, it was incredible, his strength had reached the fourth order of silver, and his spiritual power had increased a lot, he had confidence, even if he was two orders higher than himself, it was impossible to sneak close to him.

"Your strength?" Qi Dong found that he couldn't see through the strength of the Blade Empress, the Blade Empress didn't have a sense of existence, if it wasn't for his eyes, he wouldn't have noticed that there was someone here. Before the retreat, the Empress of Blades was a silver second-order.

"Silver Seventh Order." The Blade Queen's voice was cold.

"Seventh Order?"

Perverted, she's the real pervert. Compared with him, he couldn't be more ordinary, Qi Dong shouted in his heart.

In one year, she was promoted from the first order of silver to the fourth order of silver, while the queen of blades was promoted from the second order of silver to the seventh order of silver, and her progress far exceeded that of herself. It should be said that it is really the strongest special life form created by the mother worm at the cost of her own life and the lives of many high-level insects.

"It's been more than a year, and it's not far from our two-year appointment." The Empress of Blades reminded faintly.

Qi Dong was stunned, and remembered that he had promised her that he would have offspring with her two years later.

"What two-year covenant?" Qi Lingyun asked curiously.

"Hah...... It's nothing. Qi Dong said embarrassedly, confused.

Through conversations with everyone, Qi Dong has a general understanding of the situation in the past year.

Over the past year, they have grown rapidly. Everyone fought in the south and the north, with the Xingli Hall as the center, often took the initiative to attack, and had several large and small wars with foreign races, winning and losing, but the city defense battle never failed.

A year ago, they had only three large bases, and now, the number of bases under their control has reached seven.

Four bases have been added, although the scale of these four bases is not as good as the three bases, but they are not far behind, namely "Jiangcheng Base", "Yangcheng Base", "Pengcheng Base" and "Qingzhou Base".

The four bases, all of which were rescued from alien hands by the people of the Xingli Palace, were completely controlled by the Xingli Hall after a year of development, and like the three major bases, a teleportation array was established between each other.

There is no need to worry about the safety of each base, the population is growing rapidly, and people are constantly coming to join us, seven bases, with a total population of more than 15 million. Quite a powerful force.

According to Qi Dong's estimates, there are about 100 million people alive in the whole of China.

The armed forces of the seven bases are divided into two parts, one part is the regular corps, and the other is the title corps.

The regular legions, a total of thirty legions, are divided into the first to the thirtieth legions, each legion is 100,000 people, a total of three million people.

There are nine Title Legions.

The original Xuanwu Corps was divided into four war camps, named after the four holy beasts of ancient China, namely "Green Dragon", "White Tiger", "Vermilion Bird" and "Xuanwu", and the four war camps plus the original "Fengzi Battalion", "Thunder Word Battalion" and "Wooden Word Battalion" A total of seven war camps, the soldiers in it are all immortal physique, and they fight in the battle formation of the immortal clan. After more than a year of training and fighting, each battalion has mastered at least three battle formations, among which the three major battle battalions of Wind, Thunder, and Wood have mastered more than six battle formations.

Seven major war camps, each with a population of 10,000 people.

In addition to these seven war camps, there are also the Mechanical Legion and the Warrior Legion.

The mechanical legion, the equipment is all the best equipment that Regios can produce at the moment, there are combat vehicles, armor, mecha, and even fighters, and Qi Dong's storm fighter was also handed over to them. They were not very numerous, only 20,000 men, but their combat effectiveness was not weaker than any of the three major battalions of wind, thunder, and wood.

The warrior legion is composed entirely of warriors. There are only 10,000 people, and these warriors are all trained from the relics of martial arts civilization, proficient in martial arts, and extremely powerful in combat.

Seven warcamps, as well as the Mech Legion and the Warrior Legion, together make up the Nine Title Legions.

The nine title legions, which add up to only 100,000 people, are more powerful than the three million people of the regular legions.
