"Huh, what are you all doing here?"

With Xuanyuan Liuli's inappropriate question, the group of people standing in the courtyard finally remembered...... They haven't eaten yet!

Just looking at Xuanyuan Liuli again, everyone found that her face seemed to be a little gloomy, as if she had received some bad news from Yan Chenglin.

"Liuli, have you eaten lunch?" Ren Tianling let go of Xing Lingluo's hand, and returned to the appearance of a gentle big sister, as if the off-line Ren Tianling just now was just an illusion for everyone.

"Not yet. Xuanyuan Liuli was weak, and then raised the kraft paper document bag in his hand and said, "I brought back a good news and a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"Let's eat first, everyone is hungry. Ren Tianling also saw the abnormality of Xuanyuan Liuli, in case everyone didn't think about tea and dinner after hearing her news-mainly because they were afraid of wasting that big table of delicacies, not because it was because she had worked hard all morning-so she motioned to Xuanyuan Liuli to put away the document bag first, then took Xinglingluo's hand, turned around and entered the restaurant.

Everyone saw the appearance of Xuanyuan Liuli, and everyone was destined to eat this lunch like chewing wax.

The fact that Ren Tianxiang and Xing Lingluo started dating did surprise Xuanyuan Liuli a little, but she soon returned to her previous state. In her words, she had already seen the relationship between the two, and knew that it was only a matter of time before they were together, and she was surprised that Ren Tianxiang was really going to Xinglingluo to confess this morning. She thought that with the temperament of these two people, they would have to go around for a long time to understand each other's minds.

Xuanyuan Liuli's mood also affected everyone present, and the atmosphere in the restaurant became more and more solemn. Loth frowned, as if he had guessed something, but he couldn't speak.

Time passed minute by minute, and the lunch that was originally not much was eaten by a few of them for an hour.

After the meal, Ren Tianling put away the tableware, and after Ren Tianxiang helped her wash the dishes and chopsticks together, the eight of them sat down again, waiting for Xuanyuan Liuli's speech.

Xuanyuan Liuli put the document bag on the table, sighed, and said, "You guys, do you want to hear the good news or the bad news first." ”

"Let's start with the good news. Loos's hand was on the table, and his index finger kept tapping on the table, making a "tuk-tuk" sound, which showed his inner irritability. After his proposal was expressed, the rest of the group remained silent, acquiescing to Loth's proposal.

"Okay, let's start with the good news. Xuanyuan Liuli shrugged his shoulders, then took out a part of the paper document from the file bag and handed out one to everyone present.

After everyone got the documents, Xuanyuan Liuli began to speak: "We are the leader team selected in this year's Dragon Regimental General Election, and according to the usual practice, we are allowed to go to the Spirit Beast Forest in Ye Ke Province to find our spirit beast partners. The pass has been approved, and we will leave for the Spirit Beast Forest tomorrow afternoon. ”

"Spirit beasts?" Ren Tianxiang sighed, and then asked Xuanyuan Liuli, "Sister Liuli, I don't know if it's because I don't know much about spirit beasts, as far as I know, spirit beasts are fierce and cruel, especially since they all have spiritual intelligence, and they will never easily surrender to humans." What does it mean to be looking for a spirit beast as your companion?"

Without waiting for Xuanyuan Liuli to speak, Mo Zhai shook his head first, and said with a smile: "Tianxiang, your Dragon Society's database is not omniscient and omnipotent. The spirit beasts you mentioned only exist among the wild spirit beasts, and the spirit beasts in the spirit beast forest are protected by the Imperial Beast Division specially established by the Star Emperor State.

Moreover, there are still a small number of spirit beasts in the Spirit Beast Forest that fled from the Dragon King Empire after the Dragon King returned to the Dragon God Continent. The spirit beasts in the Spirit Beast Forest have made a pact with the Empire, and the Empire will give them protection, and they can become partners with the members of the Dragon-Hunting Regiment sent by the Empire.

And the Imperial Beast Division has specially created a contract magic circle for this purpose, which can allow the master's cultivation to drive the cultivation of spirit beasts, and the Dragon Hunting Regiment is the elite troops of the empire, and the cultivation is generally quite high, so many spirit beasts are willing to follow the members of the Soul Dragon Regiment. ”

Ren Tianxiang nodded, understanding Loos's explanation. He had also heard about the formation of the Spirit Beast Forest.

At the end of the Henglong Era, the Dragon King, who had been cultivated to plummet in order to prevent the meteorite "Amogut" from falling, was expelled from the Dragon God Continent, so in the Middle Dragon Era, there was a situation of political power and chaos among countries on the continent.

As we all know, spirit beasts can transform into human form when they reach the emperor level, that is, the holy level of humans.

In the Middle Dragon Era, these incarnated spirit beasts established a regime ruled by spirit beasts, in the Great Basin of Knightmeier in the territory of the Hardburg Province of the Dragon King Empire. Later, the Star Emperor Kingdom expanded wildly, and the Spirit Beast Empire here was broken, and then it was established as the Spirit Beast Autonomous Region by the Star Emperor at that time.

By the way, during the Middle Dragon Age, it was called the Flat Plain, and when the Dragon King returned, it was the core area where the Ten Cupola Beams fell, and the power of the Cupola Beams turned the plain into a basin. Fortunately, some powerful spirit beasts can still protect some descendants, so that the spirit beasts in this autonomous region are not completely extinct.

Those spirit beasts that barely survived could only go north, crossing the Henglu Mountain Range in the extreme north, and then heading south into the primeval forests of the Star Emperor Country's Yeke Province.

After so many years, the spirit beasts have multiplied in this forest from generation to generation, and those spirit beasts that can transform are becoming fewer and fewer, which has caused the spirit beasts to have to sign a contract with humans to seek the way to transform into shapes.

"The chief also said that it is all up to luck to find a spirit beast partner, after all, not every spirit beast is willing to become our partner, so there is no need to complain if you can find it. Xuanyuan Liuli saw that Mo Zhai finished speaking, and added.

"We know that. Ren Tianling smiled softly and said, "Liuli, what's the bad news?"

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Liuli's face immediately became gloomy again. She took out the remaining documents from the file bag, and after distributing them to everyone, she said: "Some time ago, the city defense army of Longcheng, a seaport city in the northeast of the Star Emperor, made some changes, and the Star Emperor Military Department, which noticed the abnormality, immediately sent an inspector from the Supervision Department to make an unannounced visit. According to the information that the military department has now, they suspect that Chu Kexuan, the lord of Longcheng City, is suspected of fornicating with the Longquan Empire. And our task is to secretly control Chu Kexuan before the Supervision Department finds evidence of his crimes. ”

"Is there something wrong with the head of this city lord named Chu Kexuan? No matter how small the movement is, it can't escape the eyes of the Supervision Department of the Military Department. Chen Yuang, who had the highest military literacy among the eight, frowned and said, "If I am the high-level of the military department, regardless of whether the city defense army is controlled by Chu Kexuan or not, I will transfer them first, and then transfer other troops over to see him." I don't have any soldiers under him, I see how capable Chu Kexuan can be!"

"In fact, the military department did exactly that. Xuanyuan Liuli pointed to the document in his hand, "The military department transferred the Longcheng City Defense Army to Mingzhi City for strict supervision on the grounds that the summer drill was in advance. At the same time, the military headquarters transferred two-thirds of the city defense army in the rear city of Quancheng to Longcheng to fill the vacancy. Moreover, the sailors of Longcheng were also ordered to go to sea and join up with the Mincheng sailors to conduct sailor drills offshore. ”

"Won't you startle the snake? Isn't the dispatch movement of the military department too big? This discerning person can see that it is diverting the forces of Dragon City. Mo Zhai looked at Chen Yuang.

Chen Yuang shook his head and replied, "No." This is the most common type of scheduling. The eastern line of defense, Mingzhi City, is not like the other major frontiers. Because this is the focus of the Dragon King's Empire, military exercises are held here every season to strengthen the defenses of the eastern defense line. And the several major cities close to Mingzhi City are the reserve sources of the border of Mingzhi City, and they can be deployed to support the front line at any time.

Moreover, Chu Kexuan was only a saint-level monk, as long as he dared to rebel, General Lin Daonan, the city lord of Mingzhi City, would definitely come as fast as possible. The distance of five or six hundred miles is not very far for an illusion-level cultivator. ”

"But Longcheng is still a military stronghold in the northeast, once Mingzhi City on the eastern border is breached, then the Knock Autumn Pass in front of Longcheng will become the last line of defense of the empire. Los said worriedly, "By then, Dragon City will be used as a transit, and the garrison can reach 200,000." If Dragon City had a problem at that critical moment, the empire would probably be very passive. ”

"Los, you're thinking too much. Chen Yuang retorted, "Not to mention whether Zhicheng is so easy to be breached, now the military department has decided to take advantage of the opportunity of the Dragon King Empire on the eastern front to thoroughly investigate Chu Kexuan's problem, which is to quickly solve the hidden dangers of Dragon City." By the way, Liuli, I just remembered that this kind of thing shouldn't be convenient for the Dragon Regiment to intervene, right?"

"It's inconvenient, so we're monitoring the City Lord of Chu Kexuan as the Supervision Envoy of the Supervision Division. Xuanyuan replied.

Ren Tianling's eyes lit up all of a sudden: "You don't hesitate to send us over at the expense of forging your identity, the chief is going to train the army!"
