[Title: Dear friends, do you know Colonel Xu Qingran?]

The familiar Xingya Forum.

This unique theme suddenly emerged on the homepage that was flooded with gossip posts from various circles.

It almost looks like fishing.

But netizens couldn't help but be attracted by those three words and clicked on the post one after another.

The contents of the main building seem to make people feel like traveling through time:

'What is this place? I saw many people posting to express their love and praise to their brothers and sisters, and I also want to praise someone on behalf of our village.

Colonel Xu Qingran is really amazing! Thank you very much to Yinlong for sending him here, we all like him very much!

This is my first post, I hope it complies with the rules. I just found out that there is no Colonel Xu's name in such a lively place, so I'll help boost his popularity.'

In the blink of an eye, it is autumn again.

It is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the whole country is on holiday to celebrate the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival. Netizens are having fun and surfing the Internet, so it is very lively.

[?]

[What? Suddenly I can’t tell whether the original poster is sincere or just lying.]

[It is well known that the little madman is powerful, but isn't it ironic that the OP said he would help him gain popularity? It is true that our little madman is busy with his career in a remote area recently, but he is still the top traffic person in our forum, okay! ]

The post quickly received responses from many netizens.

[Is the village okay? I haven’t seen such an ancient name for a long time... ]

[Wow, wait, the OP's IP is Taiyuexing? ? ]

[? Which Taiyue? Is it the Taiyue I know, the one who has been out of touch with us for a long time? ]

[What planet is Taiyuexing? Is it a foreign planet? ]

Someone asked: "Where are you from? Why is your IP address shown as Taiyue? Are there still people living there?"

This is the first time that the poster has come to the Xingya Forum and does not know how to reply in a thread.

Direct post:

[OP: Are you calling me? I am indeed from Taiyue~ I am from the North City of Nanzhou on Taiyue Star! ]

[OP: Yes, there are many people from Taiyue Star! ]

Netizens are talking about it.

[I know, Taiyue Star is the Tianlong system! I heard it is a very poor place, there is not even internet! ]

[I heard that people there live in caves and trees? ]

[I also heard that they don’t drive cars, and there are no trams or high-speed trains. People go out by horse or elephant! ]

Soon, other IPs from Taiyue Star emerged.

[Who said we don’t drive? It’s a different era now, and you’re still riding horses and elephants when you go out. Are you filming? ]

[We are very poor, but it is mainly because of the influence of the demon group! Now it is different. With Colonel Xu's support, we are gradually getting better! ]

[Yes, I am from Xia Nanzhou! I want to prove that our village also has internet access hehe! ]

[Wow, this is amazing! As a veteran Internet user with decades of Internet experience, this is the first time I’ve seen a Tianlong IP online! ]

[Why do so many Taiyue IPs suddenly appear? ! ]

[When I was watching videos before, I saw a few Taiyue IPs in the comments. I thought it was a system error. But it turns out that Taiyue is really connected to the Internet?! ]

[If this is the case, then the Weiyang Star and Tianshui Star, which are close to the moon, will soon be able to contact us, right? ]

During the discussion, some netizens grasped the key information.

[Wait, the OP said she was from North City of Nanzhou on Taiyue Star? I remember that North City had been separated from Silver Dragon and the Empire for a long time?]

[Young Master Xu is the representative official of the Silver Dragon Camp, right? Would the people of North City recognize him?]

[Yes, I remember there were rebels in North City, and I remember that Xu Dashao’s fans were very worried that he would be bullied.]

[Original Poster: People in the North City like Colonel Xu very much. ]

[Original Poster: Haha, Colonel Xu is the boss of our North City, who dares to bully him? The elder brother in our village said that it’s good enough if Colonel Xu doesn’t bully them! ]

Netizens didn’t expect that after a few months, Xu Qingran had even cleared Nanzhou on Taiyue Star.

Especially in such a difficult place like North City, how did Xu Qingran convince the stubborn and obstinate army there

—This matter has to go back to a few months ago, when Xu Qingran forcibly dragged Chen Bin into North City to find Adjutant Mao.

"To take the top spot?"

When Di Yue heard Xu Qingran's question, he couldn't help but sneer at the man who reminded him, who was half as thin as him. Even the organizers who were holding wolfhounds and watching or preparing to participate in the civil war laughed.

Di Yue quickly put away his smile and said to Xu Qingran in a haughty tone: "If you can really get first place, you can have everything you want!"

Xu Qingran asked him: "Even if I want to become the boss of your organization, is that okay?"

Di Yue narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

The colonel who had challenged them before was just trying to prove his strength and gain recognition. But this guy was directly coveting his position

"Alright! You really won, there's nothing wrong with that, right brothers!"

Di Yue said so, but he didn't think Xu Qingran could do it. He himself was a top 3S-level psychic. Even if Xu Qingran was at the same level as him, he was more experienced than him in terms of age.

Hearing this, Xu Qingran said meaningfully: "I feel relieved when you say this."

After saying that, he walked slowly towards the field at the back of the mountain, holding the knife.

After he disappeared, the younger brother beside him whispered, "Boss, if he really does that... do you really want him to be in charge of the organization?"

Di Yue glared at him and said, "What do you mean? Do you think that a 3S-level psychic with a dog king like me can't beat a pretty boy?!"

Besides, even if Xu Qingran really won, he would never be able to become the leader of the organization.

Because he was an outsider from the city, and he had not signed a master-pet contract with the wolfdog and was not recognized by the guardian beast of the North City.

According to the rules of North City, as long as he does not establish a relationship with the wolfhound clan, he cannot become the boss of the organization!

The back mountain is an open-air environment.

Surrounded by rocks and trees, it looks like it was originally a jungle area covered with grass and trees, but an area was deliberately cleared out and paved with bluestone slabs as a place for the people of the North City to gather.

In the empty arena, several people were already warming up.

They were each accompanied by a gray-black wolfhound, interacting with the other dogs, until they noticed a stranger walking into the venue, then they all looked at him.

The men exchanged glances and talked in low voices.

"Fuck, what a handsome guy!"

"I don't remember seeing him before. Is he from our organization?"

"Is he the unlucky guy who accidentally broke into the outer city of District 22 today?"

Not only the members of the organization, but even the wolfhounds were looking at Xu Qingran.

But compared to the sluggishness of their human companions, they were more sensitive to deep energy and sensed some powerful and familiar connection with Xu Qingran, and began to circle and walk back and forth restlessly in place.

When he met Xu Qingran's gaze, his eyes were fierce and his teeth were bared, and he subconsciously let out a low howl to intimidate.

But at the same time, he tucked his tail between his legs and took a step back.

Xu Qingran looked at the wolfhounds' adorable reactions and couldn't help but chuckle.

Fierce and cowardly.

In addition to the representatives from District 22, the participants also included people from other districts who had been selected internally and ranked in the top three. All in all, there were hundreds of people fighting with Xu Qingran, the elites among the elites in their organization.

While waiting, Xu Qingran rested with his eyes closed, leaning against the trunk of a nearby tree in the shade.

The people in North City didn't know much about him, and his fierce and cold traits always overshadowed his warm temperament as a D-type. If they hadn't told him, no one would have realized that he was a Dominant who could rest and recover. They just thought he was seriously injured and was dizzy due to lack of blood.

From the deep forest behind me came the rustling sound of grass leaves.

Xu Qingran opened his eyes slightly and closed them again.

More and more people gathered at the scene.

Around noon, the civil war began.

Xu Qingran, the outsider who attempted to "usurp the throne", naturally became everyone's primary target.

As soon as the whistle sounded, people standing in different corners rushed towards him. People who were not participating in the competition and the wolfhounds stayed outside the circle to watch. Even on the surrounding small slopes and rocks, many wolfhounds that lived in Daming Mountain slowly walked out.

As if they were attracted by the hustle and bustle here, they gathered together.

Xu Qingran was not idle, waiting for someone to come to him. He turned around and approached the target who was closest to him and could pose the greatest threat to him at the moment. The man did not have a knife in his hand, but wore wolf claws, and raised his hand to grab him.

He was very fast and had already attacked before Xu Qingran even turned around.

But the swing didn't hit his vitals, narrowly missing his shoulder. Xu Qingran grabbed his wrist and used the force of his swing to not only throw him out, but also throw him onto someone else.

It was not known whether it was a coincidence or a horrible calculation, but the man was thrown away and had no time to retract his movement, which happened to catch another person in the fighting arena.

The other party was instantly annoyed and couldn't help but kick the fallen wolf claw man: "You did this on purpose?!"

There were also people who were knocked down by him and were ambushed in the chaos.

And put the blame on him.

On the other side, Xu Qingran, after throwing the man out, had already started hitting his next target.

He would beat anyone who came, even if so many people surrounded him, they couldn't beat him. If someone took advantage of the crowd to distract attention and successfully stabbed him, then after Xu Qingran dealt with the previous person, he would become his new target.

Even if the road is difficult and crowded, Xu Qingran, who is extremely vindictive, will chase people to the ends of the earth.

Chasing is just a process, being caught by him is just the beginning of things.

When not fighting, Xu Qingran looks like just a psychic with a little sense of distance.

Once he got into a fight, his eyes and aura were like a completely different person. His movements were as swift as the wind, his strength was strong, his reactions were extremely fast, and his attacks were painful and brutal. They all wanted to hit him where he was weak, but those who got the upper hand often got beaten harder than other targets.

A bruised face and nose is just a small matter. At least a few bones in the body will be broken.

How much pain it would cause depended on how heavy the attack on Xu Qingran was. But he was very patient. When others were stabbed, they would frown and look grim. But even if he was stabbed again in the place where he was already injured, his expression would not change.

He didn't say a word.

Even when he was surrounded and beaten by more than ten or twenty people, he remained calm. He waited for the opportunity until it came, seized it, and after breaking free from the predicament, he beat the people who had beaten him even harder.

The spectators who were originally cheering for the organization members and their family members and friends gradually fell silent.

The civil war is more than halfway through and half of the players on the field have already withdrawn.

I don't know when it started, but it became a one-sided bullying scene between Xu Qingran and Di Yue. Di Yue was fine, after all, he was their boss, it was normal that he couldn't beat him.

But why can’t we defeat that guy from outside the city

Everyone who was originally full of confidence and looking forward to seeing Xu Qingran's performance were dumbfounded.

After a fierce fight, all the wounds Xu Qingran got when he entered the city had split open, staining the white gauze red, making him look even more ferocious.

He held a knife in his hand, and countless times when he was in a hurry, he almost stabbed people to death based on his instinct and habit.

But every time he would think of the white dog in time, and remember that the nature of this place was different from that of the Evil Tower Arena, so he would turn the blade and avoid the vital parts that would kill those people.

"I... I give up, I give up!"

On the field, the man with a crew cut who was grabbed by the collar and pounded on the hard stone floor by Xu Qingran raised his hands weakly and shouted "surrender" while he had a chance to breathe to avoid being beaten to death by Xu Qingran.

Then he was carried out miserably.

In the end, unexpectedly, only Di Yue and Xu Qingran were left on the field.

Of course, Chen Bin, who was watching in the crowd, said he was not surprised at all.

Di Yue was holding a machete in his hand and breathing heavily in the direction of Xu Qingran.

Compared with Xu Qingran, his condition was not much better, and he also had many more injuries of varying depths.

Although the people in the organization said that they would work together, people, especially those with power, have ambitions in their hearts. Di Yue has been leading the organization for nearly ten years since he took office, and everyone is eager to defeat him and replace him.

When facing such a powerful enemy, we must attack together while we have more people.

Therefore, apart from the fact that Xu Qingran was everyone's first target at the beginning, some people who slowly figured it out had already shifted their target to Di Yue. Unfortunately, with 3S's mental strength as a blessing for their physique and physical fitness, and another crazy Xu Qingran, they ultimately failed.

Xu Qingran was also already sweating profusely from exhaustion.

After their eyes met, they wasted no time and immediately started fighting again.

This is one of the highest levels of gladiatorial combat today.

Even the wolfhounds watching felt the excitement, and those lazily lying on the ground stood up and stretched their necks to watch. Whether fighting hand-to-hand or with knives, the attacks of both sides were blocked by the other side, and it was hard to tell who was better.

—That’s right in the eyes of bystanders.

But only Di Yue, who was fighting with Xu Qingran, knew that his resistance was becoming increasingly powerless, and the steps that supported his body were becoming weaker and weaker.

It seems that they from Beicheng really met a tough opponent today.

To be able to fight him to this extent, the colonel's spiritual level must be at level 3S.

Di Yue's reaction at this time was the same as when other people in Nanzhou first learned of Xu Qingran's identity.

How could such a capable military talent come to their Nanzhou

Then, there was another round of dissatisfaction.

At the same level, with the bound wolfhound by his side, he should have a stronger ability to suppress others. How come he not only barely tied with Xu Qingran, but his endurance even gradually couldn't keep up with his rhythm

The white wolfhound sitting at the front of the crowd kept its eyes fixed on Di Yue.

Then, he looked at Xu Qingran with a scrutinizing gaze, and the more he looked, the more solemn his eyes became. In the end, he just lay down and began to rest, with his tail hanging limply beside his butt, as if he had already admitted defeat on behalf of his master.

The two men on the field fought each other for half an hour, and then temporarily separated and looked at each other during a collision.

Di Yue's mental energy consumption was visibly great, his face was full of fatigue and he was sweating profusely.

Looking at Xu Qingran again, although he didn't get much good from Di Yue, the look in his eyes was still calm and clear, and full of energy, as if he could still fight until dark.

Ten seconds later, Xu Qingran and Di Yue started fighting again.

But this time, it was Xu Qingran who crushed them unilaterally.

When Di Yue was kicked out of the arena and had no strength to fight back, the world was silent.

The referee forgot to announce the winner, and everyone forgot to applaud. There were only shocked faces and the eliminated contestants, who were covered in injuries and wailing.

Everyone felt as if they were in a dream.

When did those bad-tempered officers in the Silver Dragon Battalion become so powerful

Xu Qingran threw the knife to the ground, accurately passing through the gap between the stone slabs and inserting it deeply into the soil.

Then he walked towards Di Yue step by step.

Wherever you step, there are traces of blood.

Di Yue was still lying on the ground, catching his breath and resting.

One of the eyes had been punched at some point, and blood had gathered around the eye socket.

Xu Qingran lowered his eyes and said, "I won."

The voice was cold and desolate: "So now, can you listen to me?"

Di Yue looked up at the swaying leaves above and chuckled.

He replied: "Congratulations, you won. But unfortunately, even if you get first place, you can't become our leader."

"Whether it's the North City organization or the residents, they only recognize the boss who has formed a bond with the wolfhound."

"According to the rules, you, an out-of-towner who has not been recognized by the wolfhounds, can only be considered a successful challenge at best."

While Di Yue was replying, the wild wolfhounds that were watching from a high place in the arena also jumped down and approached Xu Qingran in a circle.

But when there were only a few meters between them, they suddenly stopped as if they had noticed something.

It bared its teeth at him, then backed away with its tail hanging down. This situation was not common, and in the eyes of the residents of North City, they just thought that there was something about Xu Qingran that made the wolfhounds feel uncomfortable or disliked, and they rejected him.

Di Yue took a moment to relax, then tried to prop himself up and sit up.

Seeing the wolfhounds that were originally interested in Xu Qingran retreating in a defensive posture, Ha laughed and said, "Young colonel, you are not even accepted by the dog pack. So don't dream of ruling North City. The most important thing is to leave North City safely."

"Otherwise, after tomorrow, the promise to let you go after you win will no longer be valid."

Xu Qingran was not in a hurry.

After listening, he just said: "You mean, as long as I also have a big dog, I can become the leader of your organization?"

Upon hearing this, Di Yue raised one corner of his mouth again.

He bent one leg, put one hand on it, and said to Xu Qingran in a bossy manner: "I say, Colonel, not any big dog can be used."

"It has to be the wolfhound that is unique to our North City."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed around: "Here, this is the breed. If you have the ability, you can find a wild dog that is willing to form a master-pet bond with you."

Xu Qingran smiled slightly: "The main reason is that I already have a dog and I have no plans to find a new one."

"Why don't I let it out first to show you whether my dog is worthy of your approval."

After he finished speaking, Xu Qingran put his fingers to his mouth and whistled.

In the nearby woods, there seemed to be a wild beast running through, making quite a noise.

Soon, a white shadow was seen jumping out from the bushes and leaping to Xu Qingran's side.

Especially those iconic icy-colored animal eyes, so cold and lonely, making her look like a noble and elegant queen among the dogs.

While everyone held their breath, shocked by its appearance, it, which had never liked to be close to humans, leaned against Xu Qingran's legs and turned around, with its tail raised high, gently sweeping across his arm.

Like some kind of certification.

After the white dog appeared, Di Yue's smug expression changed instantly.

How could it be possible?!

Isn't this the famous White King from Tianguang Mountain? !

The dog that Xu Qingran mentioned had formed a bond with, turned out to be the White King!

Everyone who is a resident of the North City, especially members of the Wolfhound Guard, knows it.

They had discussed whether the White King would wait for a bond that he would recognize. If so, what kind of person would that be

The wolfhounds in North City have extremely high IQs and exceptionally keen mental perception.

According to ancient rumors, the more powerful the wolfhound, the smarter it is, and therefore the more picky it is about the people it ties with. After all, it is not a must-have partner in their lives. If they can't find one, they would rather not get involved in the world, and they won't just settle for novelty and experience.

The White King is currently the most special and famous dog king in North City.

At that time, the people said that the person it would choose in the future would definitely be the Supreme One. Compared with their own views on people, they believed more in the person chosen by the picky Dog King.

Di Yue was dumbfounded.

Xu Qingran even curled his eyes and asked him: "How is it? Is my dog okay?"

Di Yue: “…”

That's really great.

Those who have formed a bond with the wolfhounds already have a certain status in the North City.

If they were to form a bond with a dog king like the White King - there was no doubt that no matter how unwilling they were, they would have to recognize Xu Qingran as the new leader of their organization.

Among the people present, probably only Chen Bin, a pure fun-loving person, was watching the show the happiest.

It was as if he had watched a great drama, which made him feel relaxed both physically and mentally.

He asked why Colonel Xu didn't bring the white dog, such a great treasure for passing the level, with him when he came to North City.

It turned out that the White King had been following him secretly, but perhaps because of Xu Qingran's request, he did not show up immediately when he was in trouble. Otherwise, Xu Qingran could have used the White King's distinguished status in the North City to get through all the obstacles in the 22nd District of North City.

If you think about it carefully, there are only a few reasons why Xu Qingran didn't do this.

I habitually like to take the hell route to pass the levels.

Also, he wanted to rely on his own fists to convince the people of North City, and then give them a slap in the face.

In fact, Xu Qingran did think so.

After so many days, he roughly understood the importance of the white dog to North City.

However, relying on it to pass the checkpoint is only superficial recognition after all, and the honor given to him is just the honor that Bai Quan has worked hard for in the past.

What Xu Qingran wanted was that when people in North City mentioned him in the future, they would say 'the colonel with the white dog' instead of 'the man recognized by the white dog'.

Anyway, compared with the thrills of the previous life, these minor fights were nothing to worry about, so why not do it? Besides, his white dog was cautious and alert, and often preferred to hide in the dark and follow his car when he went out, so he didn't deliberately let it out on the way.

Therefore, the people of North City who were beaten up by Xu Qingran had no choice but to accept it.

Since then, the leader of the North City Wolfhound Guard officially announced a replacement.

Xu Qingran was invited to rest in their base camp for a few days, and almost all of his injuries were healed, and his mental pool was almost restored. Everyone was shocked again, and then discovered his identity as a rare D-type person.

I am even more confused.

Is this what the D-type is like? Why is it different from what was rumored

Isn't it said that type D is too gentle and not good at fighting? This guy is so ruthless that it is more credible to say that he is an extreme type E!

After Xu Qingran had a rest, he took Di Yue to continue strolling around the North City.

Why let Di Yue follow

After all, he is a native of this city and a former representative of the organization. People should be more familiar with him, and it is easier to explain things. As for the military, he does not intend to spend too much time dealing with Chen Jianguang. Now most of the people in North City will submit to him, and it is useless for the North City Army led by Chen Jianguang to resist.

Now that the people of North City no longer help them, he just needs to move his fingers to transfer personnel from the other three cities - perhaps the North City guards have not yet realized that the guards in other city districts of Upper South Continent now have the most advanced weapons and are no longer the same as before.

Seriously speaking, it would be easy for Xu Qingran to take down the North City Military Headquarters by brute force now.

It's just that he doesn't want to.

In addition to the waste of human resources, the main consideration is for the residents of South Africa.

Most of the military guards in Nanzhou are composed of local residents. If they are asked to attack Beicheng, which is on the same continent as Luzhou, they may resist it. Even if they take it by force, something may happen in the later stage.

He felt that the North City should have been worn out during this period of time.

Anyway, it's something that can be accomplished anyway. Instead of going through so much trouble and waste time, it's better to let them surrender voluntarily.

It's even better this way.

·

Chen Jianguang and Adjutant Mao waited at the North City headquarters for several days.

Adjutant Mao said that given Xu Qingran's personality, he would definitely not use military funds to make a deal with Beicheng.

At most, Xu Qingran would come alone and make a final confirmation with the North City Army Guards to see whether to release him. Since Chen Jianguang was embarrassed to ask this question, he pretended to be moved by reason and coercion during the negotiation, and reluctantly agreed to give Xu Qingran a chance to cooperate.

If you still can't save your dignity at this point, then just put it off a little longer.

As the situation dragged on, Xu Qingran began to speak with his fists, and finally defeated the North City guards and successfully rescued the people.

This step is more risky.

First of all, he would get beaten, and secondly, the cooperation thus obtained would not be as pleasant as imagined, so Adjutant Mao suggested that Chen Jianguang should go with the flow and take the opportunity when it was given to him.

Chen Jianguang hesitated and said he would wait and see after Xu Qingran came.

As a result, they waited for many days. They were almost losing their patience, but Xu Qingran still didn't come.

Chen Jianguang also asked Adjutant Mao: "… How did you become an adjutant? Could it be that he has no feelings for you and doesn't intend to come to rescue people?"

Adjutant Mao was silent.

That is to say, it is not impossible for this kind of thing to happen to Xu Qingran.

After all, he always felt that their new colonel was a crazy, cold-blooded and heartless person.

Adjutant Mao said calmly, "So I warned you at the beginning that you guys take me, a small adjutant, too seriously. It is a foolish decision to arrest me."

Amidst the melancholy, Chen Jianguang and his friends finally got news about Xu Qingran.

I heard that Xu Qingran came to North City.

Moreover, they forced their way into District 22’s checkpoint, and the city gate hasn’t been repaired yet.

I also heard that Xu Qingran had arrived in the urban area of their headquarters.

However, it seemed that he had no intention of coming to their camp, and was strolling around the city with the residents of the North City Wolfhound Guard Organization.

Chen Jianguang was dumbfounded: "Why did he get involved with those non-governmental organizations? Wasn't he driven away?"

People in the North City are so xenophobic!

The soldier who came to report scratched his head: "That is to say, I heard that our new colonel killed their organization's headquarters by himself, and he has the White King, whom they respect and recognize the most, as a bonded pet. He... He is now the boss of the people of North City."

Chen Jianguang: “…?”

ah

Adjutant Mao: “…”

Damn, he really is Xu Qingran.

After not seeing each other for a few days, he directly bypassed the North City Army Guards and captured the people of North City?

He knew that the White King was very important to the residents of North City, but he didn't expect his status to be so noble. Xu Qingran was really lucky, as he happened to run into the day when the Wolfhound Guard Organization held its annual re-election of its leader. If he had been a day earlier or later, he wouldn't have gotten this advantage.

Chen Jianguang couldn't help but ask, "Is there no one among you who can remind him that there are still troops in the North City waiting for him to conquer them?"

The soldier paused, wanting to cry but unable to, "I mentioned it before."

"But this colonel didn't follow the usual path. He said that our North City Guards have done a good job over the years and there is no need for him to interfere. He told us to do whatever we want as long as we can defend North City well."

"He was particularly pleased and had no demands on us."

Chen Jianguang: “…”

But now they have demands!!

That same night, news came that a large meteorite had exploded in Tianguang Mountain in District 18.

It is said that when a military guard was repairing the stone nearby, he secretly used a spiritual weapon to attack the stone's shell out of curiosity to see what the reaction would be. As a result, the stone, feeling the external force attack, cracked from the inside and finally exploded.

Not only did it explode, it also awakened the creatures inside.

Unfortunately, it is the biggest enemy they are facing now - the devil.

In addition to the common low-level Class II demons, there are also mid-level Class III demons that can shield mechanical and detector signals.

Class III is grayish white and small in size. It is the only non-chimeric individual among the currently known devil types. They have wings and can fight in the sky. The waves emitted by flapping their wings at high speed can disrupt human signals.

This is why the people of North City were initially unable to detect whether there was any living organism inside the outer shell of the big stone.

Most importantly, there is a high-level X-type devil in this big rock!

The size is almost the same as that of a big guy! It's something that makes people feel suffocated just thinking about it!

At the same time, the information on the stone specimens collected by the research team also yielded results.

It turned out that it was not a stone at all, but a mixture of saliva and silk spit out by a Zerg in outer space that had attacked the Kaian Empire. It was as hard as steel, would not be worn away by the atmosphere, and could also serve as an insulator to isolate power sources.

The reason why this Zerg can no longer continue to attack the Empire is because they are afraid of the Kaian Empire's ultrasonic repellers.

The demons were not afraid of this thing, but they were afraid of the Empire's power supply. In order to invade, the demons actually cooperated with the Zerg expelled by the Empire, using this method to lock the power station in the area where they landed, destroy it, and then take the opportunity to launch an attack.

As soon as the news came out, Chen Jianguang had no time to think about the various schemes he used to get military funds from Xu Qingran. He contacted the branch camp in District 18 overnight, and after making preliminary arrangements, he immediately boarded a fighter plane and rushed to District 18 as quickly as possible.

Parts of District 18 were already without electricity due to the damage to the power plant.

If the demons rushed down the mountain at this time, the nearby residents would face a serious disaster. Chen Jianguang felt his scalp tingling and his hair stand on end just imagining it, and he didn't have the heart to complain about how such an unfortunate thing could happen to Beicheng at this time.

However, when he hurriedly arrived, the town near the foot of the mountain was not as chaotic as he had imagined, being trampled by the demons.

Even the residents inside have been evacuated safely with the help of the military guards and spontaneous civilian organizations. Those places without power are now in an empty city state, so even if they are unfortunately attacked by the devil group, there will be no casualties.

The leader of the military guards in District 18 saw him and trotted over.

The running steps seemed to carry a bit of joy.

Chen Jianguang glanced at the well-organized military guards around him and asked hesitantly, "…What's going on?"

The leader said with bright eyes: "Huh? Aren't these the reinforcements you found, Lieutenant Colonel?"

"We heard that the new colonel of Shangnanzhou has conquered the White King of Tianguang Mountain and has become the leader of the residents of North City. I thought you also accepted this colonel and cooperated with him, so you asked him to come here in advance to help make arrangements?"

Chen Jianguang couldn't believe his ears: "You mean, the colonel is here?"

"Yes." The leader nodded, "He also led a group of people up Tianguang Mountain. They have been up there for an hour."

The rank of Class X devils is higher than that of Class I devils, but the difficulty of detecting source crystals is strictly speaking similar.

The advantage of the I-type is that the source crystals on them can be continuously transferred, which is a test of the detector's mastery of the source crystals. The X-type itself is similar to the lower level of the II-type. They do not belong to the loose combination form of the I-type, but after being embedded, they are tightly attached together like glue, forming a fixed form.

Therefore, the source crystals on their bodies will not move, but they are extremely small.

Category X certainly cannot be solved immediately.

But Xu Qingran was able to lead others to deal with the other small categories first.

Tianguang Mountain is still the white dog's territory. With a wolf-like howl from it, all the dogs in the mountain came out to deal with the low-level demons that looked very similar to them.

The source crystal information shared by Xu Qingran was still admirably clear.

Both the North City’s military guards and the civilian guards were impressed by his superb combat skills and mental detection.

Seeing that the new colonel was able to suppress most of the demons that gave them headaches, the North City natives, who had originally had some complaints about him suddenly becoming their boss, now no longer had any complaints.

They have waited for so long, and finally a capable colonel has arrived!

They must be stupid to want to drive away such a rare talent? !

The tug-of-war on the mountain barely ended until dawn.

When an X-type enters dormant form, it does not become shrunken, but remains in its original form, with its nine tails firmly planted in the ground like nails, fixing the territory it occupies. If someone tries to move or attack it at this time, its body defense will automatically counterattack.

It's a particularly tricky target.

That night, the elite personnel led by Xu Qingran were responsible for fighting with the X class.

Especially this exceptionally brave colonel who seemed to not know how to write the word death. It was probably the first time he had fought against the X-type, and he knew nothing about it. He spent the whole night trying and making mistakes, and was stabbed many times. When he was done, there was a hole in his back.

Xu Qingran didn't complain at all.

He was arranging the aftermath in a nonchalant manner, urging the people in North City to speed up the repair of the nearby power station and at least build the first layer of protection on the top of the mountain before the next dark.

The primary goal is to stop Type X from going down the mountain.

I heard that X-type can also randomly reproduce devils of lower rank as a mother, and even if they are born, they must all be locked up in the mountains first. Otherwise, once the range expands, it will be even more difficult to deal with.

After Xu Qingran finished explaining everything, he planned to leave the affairs here to the North City Military Guards to handle.

Just as he was about to go down the mountain, he saw a rather muscular man approaching him with a serious expression. The man was wearing a military uniform and did not look like an ordinary soldier. He guessed what he was after just a few glances.

Seeing the other party's serious expression, Xu Qingran was wondering whether he was going to come and question him, blaming him for mobilizing the North City Guards without authorization.

But he suddenly raised his hand and saluted him solemnly, saying in a deep voice: "Hello, Colonel Xu. I am the commander of the North City Army Guard, Chen Jianguang."

Xu Qingran raised his eyes.

Chen Jianguang's eyes were slightly red, and it was unclear whether it was because of embarrassment or because he was finally willing to let go of the persistence he had carried for so long.

A light gaze swept across Chen Jianguang's face.

After a long while, Xu Qingran curved his eyes and said, "Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Chen."

The residents and guards of the North City eventually surrendered to Xu Qingran.

Naturally, they also enjoyed the benefits of several other cities, with military supplies in place and the people's living standards taken care of. The maintenance work of Tianguang Mountain was going smoothly. It took some time to lock the X-type source crystal, so they could only try their best to pull with it.

As for the cleaning of other disaster-stricken areas, the cleaning speed has increased dramatically with the new equipment.

Some time ago, the network situation in the entire South Continent finally achieved a certain degree of unification.

So everyone started to go online, get in touch with the world outside of Nanzhou, and come into contact with people from other galaxies.

It’s just that those new things are still too unfamiliar to them, and they encounter difficulties in using them, so not many people are interested in them in the early stage.

It was not until they gradually became familiar with each other and found the Xingya Forum that the above events happened. Now the people in Shangnanzhou like Xu Qingran the most, who is a colonel with both strength and appearance, and has the aura of conquering the White King. He is also very responsible for them in Shangnanzhou, and is simply the leader in their dreams.

The post became popular shortly after it was published.

[Who understands? I am really envious of the residents of Nanzhou! ]

[I know that the little crazy kid will shine wherever he goes. Why is it that I feel so gratified watching my excellent child grow up? ]

[Oh my god! Have you read the latest military news? Young Master Xu is on the headlines again! ]

As soon as the discussion threads were piled up in full swing, netizens who kept up with current affairs caught up with the latest news on the social platforms.

#Tianlong Taiyue Star, Shangnanzhou North City X-type devil perfect sniper! #

After several months of fighting, the North City Army, under the command of Xu Qingran, finally killed the X-type that smashed into Tianguang Mountain in North City. But what surprised netizens even more was that the Silver Dragon Battalion was now on the news in the Tianlong area again!

The last time it was mentioned was when the old Silver Dragon City on Silver Star was completely lost.

Apart from that, all the big and small events that happened in Tianlong, which places were invaded by foreign races, etc., were not reported in the news.

Netizens simply started discussing it in the hot posts.

Amid the chaos, the poster silently interjected.

[Original Poster: ...Ah? You just found out about this? This happened two days ago. Is the news from your prosperous galaxy so slow?]

[…]

[Damn, I never thought that one day I would be mocked by a slum dweller like Tianlong.]

[I...you...Silver Dragon, can you guys be a little slower in sending messages?]

[Breaking news! The young master is live streaming! He finally started live streaming!!!]

Netizens swarmed to the long-awaited news.

Before the live broadcast room was even fully set up, the number of viewers skyrocketed and soon exceeded 100 million.

[Ahhh, long time no see, young master! !]

[Little Crazy, you are finally on air! Where is the QR code? Sign up now! ]

[Young Master, are you going to report the latest situation in Nanzhou to us like the Admiral did? ]

After a sound, the camera was finally turned on.

That is, the picture is not quite the same as the dignified and serious one that netizens imagined.

Xu Qingran was wearing an ordinary casual shirt, and the background looked like some quiet little garden, with a woman in simple clothes sitting next to him.

Netizens didn't react for a while, and the barrage of comments was unusually quiet.

Xu Qingran smiled softly at the camera and said hello.

The next second, he pulled out half a dozen honeys from under the table and introduced them in a serious manner: "Shangnanzhou Beicheng pure natural wild honey, hand-collected, 100% pure without additives, sweet and fragrant, good for the stomach and body, 100% compensation if fake, no cheating for everyone."

"Mid-Autumn Festival promotion, buy five and get one free if you order now."

"Free shipping for a limited time, hurry up and grab it."

Netizens: “… ”
