If this green-scaled earth dragon lizard was put up for auction, even though its value was not comparable to the two-headed chimera pet eggs they had encountered before, it would still be a pet or mount that countless people would be vying for.
Although the dragon-blooded beast is only of pseudo-dragon blood, it does not affect its attributes and potential at all.
However, at the moment, he was suddenly disliked by others, especially all three of them, which made him stunned.
You must know that if it were placed in the previous life, this would be something he couldn't even ask for.
"Forget it, they will understand in the future!"
After thinking to himself, Zhou Lei stopped worrying. After sorting things out, the group headed directly towards the military port training ground.
The soldiers of the Third Army were extremely looking forward to and nervous about this competition, because it would determine their subsequent war mission allocation.
However, Zhou Lei and others did not have this kind of emotion. All he had in his heart was eagerness. He just wanted to complete this competition as soon as possible, and then sail away again to try to improve the cultivation of Xiao Hei and the Shadow Killing Warriors.
In previous conversations, they already knew that the military's land reclamation was coming, so they were eager to increase their strength before then.
On the spacious training ground, a dense crowd of people has gathered at this moment. At first glance, it seems that the number of people cannot be less than one hundred thousand. With such a large number, it is naturally impossible for all of them to be members of the Third Army. In fact, there are The two armies are the same as the third army.
In the end, a competition was used to determine the number of vanguards. Obviously, their competition time overlapped with that of the Third Army, which made the training ground even more crowded.
Zhou Lei and the four of them moved forward without passing through any area. The crowded crowd would spontaneously make way for them, so they didn't need to worry at all.
After three days, the news that Zhou Lei was a participant in the Ninth Division had already spread throughout the Third Army. Although there was no explicit provision on what kind of strength a participant must have to be a participant in the battle, the Middle Realm had long been the target of each division. default.
All the soldiers also knew that the senior officials of the Ninth Division could not be fools. Since Zhou Lei could be allowed to fight, there is no doubt that Zhou Lei's combat power must be at the middle level. There is no need to doubt this.
It is precisely because of this that they will take the initiative to get out of the way. Whether they possess mid-level combat power or have already entered the ranks of mid-level, they are already the pinnacle existence of the current human race. Such cutting-edge existences deserve their treatment. .
Crossing the dense crowd on the outside, Zhou Lei and the four of them walked all the way to the inner circle of the training ground. Although the people on the outside were dense, there was still a vacuum zone with a diameter of more than fifty meters in the inner circle, which was used for the competition. Specifically set aside.
Not long after entering the inner circle, Zhou Lei and the others found Jiang Hongshao, who had been waiting here, and of course, Huang Shishi beside her.
Huang Shishi glanced at Zhou Lei, who had a calm face. She couldn't let go of her high-spirited heart. She had no choice. Although she was very relieved about her best friend's vision, this competition was of great importance after all. It affected the 15,000 people of the Ninth Division. Regarding the safety of a sergeant, even though she believed in Jiang Hongshao very much, she was still nervous.
In response, Jiang Hongshao beside her naturally felt the uneasiness in her sisters' hearts, and gently comforted Huang Shishi in her ears:
"Okay, not to mention guaranteed victory, at least a 90% chance!!!"
Hearing this, Huang Shishi's high-spirited heart relaxed slightly. She understood Jiang Hongshao's temperament very well, and it was impossible to be so sure about things that she was not sure about. However, she still said softly:
"Shao Shao, it's not that I don't believe you. The two men sent by the Seventh Division and the Eighth Division are more ruthless than the other, especially Duan Lingtian from the Seventh Division. He was once considered the number one person in our army."
………
"Hmm... you mean Duan Lingtian? The one with the rank of colonel?" Jiang Hongshao's beautiful eyes were slightly startled, and she quickly asked carefully. At the same time, she also thought in her heart, "Is it really such a coincidence?".
Hearing this, Huang Shishi nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, the commander of the 19th Brigade of the 7th Division is said to be awarded the title of brigadier general soon. I also heard that some time ago he personally went out to another sea area and killed one and overturned the 7th Division several times. Black water anaconda cruising fleet ships.”
"That was a pseudo-sea area overlord-level creature that was about to enter the high realm. It was killed when it was said to be killed. In the past few days, some people in our division have speculated that the extraordinary characteristics condensed in Lingtian's body may not be less than twenty. Five o'clock."
Hearing his best friend's explanation, Jiang Hongshao's eyes flashed with ripples, looking a little uneasy. Then he quickly informed Zhou Lei and the others of the news in the team chat channel.
But that's all. Her confidence in Zhou Lei has not weakened at all. After spending so long together, she knows Zhou Lei's strength very well.
………
Seeing the message from Jiang Hongshao, a look of solemnity flashed in the eyes of several people. Ren Yang and the other three turned their eyes and looked at Zhou Lei. There was still a hint of worry in their eyes. After all, they knew that Zhou Lei had extraordinary characteristics now. It's twenty-two o'clock.
In the sea of medieval ruins, although the extraordinary drops were very generous, they stayed in the dark lair space for too long, resulting in not getting many extraordinary points in the following months. In addition, during the promotion After reaching the realm, the concentration of each extraordinary characteristic requires more than 200,000 extraordinary points.
As a result, Zhou Lei is still tens of thousands of extraordinary points away from condensing the 23rd extraordinary characteristic.
The gap in extraordinary characteristics of at least three points is also the reason why the three of them are worried.
In this regard, Zhou Lei himself was calm and tense, with no emotion on his face.
Seeing the indifference on Zhou Lei's face, several people seemed to understand something. The worry in their eyes disappeared and turned into a touch of joy again.
The four of them nodded towards Jiang Hongshao and waited for a few minutes.
At this time, the crowd suddenly gave way to a spacious passage, just like when big figures appeared on TV in previous lives, and then Zhou Lei saw a group of people walking all the way through the passage.
There were about twenty people in this group, headed by three smiling middle-aged men. Although all three of them were smiling, Zhou Lei did not feel the spring breeze from any of them. Feel.
What the three people exude are three extremely heavy auras. The first impression given by people is that they are as thick as a mountain. However, the strength of the three people is not too strong. They are all low-level extraordinary. The extraordinary condensed in their bodies. The characteristics are all around fifteen points.
But when combined in this way, the two are obviously extremely conflicting. The strength is obviously not too high, but it can give a middle-level creature like Zhou Lei a mountain-like sense of weight, which is very strange.
But Zhou Lei was not surprised at all. He was very familiar with this kind of aura. It was the kind of person who has been in a high position all year round. Over time, he has developed an aura of superiority, which is not something ordinary people can achieve. own.
Obviously, the identities of these three people are not simple.
"Are you the three masters of the Third Army?" A vague look flashed across Zhou Lei's eyes. At this moment, Jiang Hongshao's news rang out in the team chat channel again.
"The one on the left is the commander of the Ninth Division "Zhao Dingbang"!!"
Seeing this, several people nodded slightly, knowing that this was the person who invited them to compete this time.
………
Just when Ren Yang and the others looked at the master "Zhao Dingbang", Zhou Lei's attention did not stay on the three of them, but turned to the six figures behind them.
These six figures followed each of the three division commanders, with two people behind each, clearly distinguishable.
Of course, what Zhou Lei paid attention to was not how a few people held together, but what he paid attention to was the aura of these six people.
Deep in his eyes that no one noticed, his pupils shrank slightly, as if he was quite surprised.
That's right, the auras exuded by these six people were all extraordinary in the middle realm, and what surprised him even more.
He did not see Ling Tian's figure among the six people. Instead, he saw the person behind Zhao Dingbang with a slightly pale complexion. After thinking of what Huang Shishi said before, he already had a rough guess in his mind.
As for the identities of these six people, three of them are probably the deputy division commanders of each division, while the other three are most likely the personal guards of the three division commanders.
And this means that the other two participating in this competition are not among these six people.
Presumably, the surprise in Zhou Lei's heart was even deeper, because this meant that in just this wave, eight Zhenhai Third Army's mid-level extraordinary people appeared.
This is only what the three divisions showed, and it does not include the trump card players hidden in the dark. If the essence of the entire army is added to the brigade directly under the military headquarters, Zhou Lei took a sharp breath in his heart. I no longer want to speculate any more.
At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart.
"Sure enough, the strength of the military headquarters is beyond what outsiders can imagine. This is just one of the armies of the Zhenhai Group Army, and the Zhenhai Group Army has seven armies. Hey, forget it, it's useless to think about it."
After reciting it, he warned himself softly.
"There are people outside the world, and there are mountains outside the mountains. Although we have encountered many adventures along the way and developed far beyond the past life by relying on the memories of our previous lives, we must not be arrogant and complacent because of this. The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard!!!"
………
While chanting, the top commander of the Ninth Division, Commander "Zhao Dingbang" with the rank of major general, had already come to Zhou Lei and the others with a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Zhou Lei and others hurriedly said hello.
"Zhou Lei (Ren Yang, Zhao Hu...) has met Master Zhao and is honored to represent the Ninth Division. I also thank the Master for his trust!!"
Hearing this, the smile on Zhao Dingbang's face did not diminish. He patted Zhou Lei on the shoulder, and then talked to Zhou Lei in a calm voice for a while.
The general meaning is that just perform normally and don't put too much pressure on. Even if you lose, as long as you try your best, all the officers and soldiers of the 9th Division will not have any complaints against you.
In response, Zhou Lei nodded and indicated that he would do it, but in his heart he didn't dare to take it seriously at all, knowing that it was just a nice thing to say.
Just kidding, it was related to the safety of the entire Ninth Division's 15,000 people. If he was really so open-minded, how could he agree to the request to "choose three items from the Logistics Department"?
Three items from the logistics department of a Manchu division. This is no joke. The value will never be low. If he can agree to such a request, Master Zhao naturally wants Zhou Lei to win. There is no doubt about this. .
………
During the conversation, suddenly, the whole place fell silent. Looking around, Zhou Lei's eyes narrowed slightly. It was surprising that participants from the seventh and eighth divisions were also present.
Zhou Lei cast his eyes directly on the two of them. After all, they were the opponents he was going to face next, so he still had to pay some attention to them.
One of them was "Duan Lingtian" whom they had met before on the Sky Cloud Boat. Zhou Lei and others had guessed his identity. Now they already knew his position. He was the commander of the 19th Brigade of the 7th Division. , is known as the number one person in the Third Army of Zhenhai, of course, it may only be on the surface.
The other person is the representative of the 8th Division. "Wang Han", the leader of the regiment directly under the commander of the 8th Division, is also an extremely powerful mid-level extraordinary.
While looking around, a man in an officer's uniform walked to the center of the vacuum zone. A flash of light was seen in his hand, and then three notes appeared in his hand. At the same time, he spoke directly.
"The competition is about to begin. Now the participants are invited to come forward and draw lots!"
At this time, Huang Shishi introduced softly:
"This is Deputy Staff Officer Zhang from the military department. He will serve as the referee for this competition!"
After hearing this, Zhou Lei nodded, and then stepped out directly. At the same time, Duan Lingtian and Wang Han on the other sides also walked out together. Under the expectant and nervous eyes of everyone outside, the three of them slowly approached, and finally at the military headquarters The deputy staff officer stopped in front of him.
Before, the three of them just looked at each other, and then looked away directly. There was no spark of friction that everyone expected.
After a while, the three of them each picked a piece of paper in Deputy Staff Zhang's hand. When he opened it, Zhou Lei raised his eyebrows. There was only a red cross drawn on the paper in his hand.
Looking at the other two people, the note in Duan Lingtian's hand was drawn with a circle, while Wang Han had the same red cross as him.
Seeing this, deputy staff officer Zhang said directly with a smile:
"Next, the eighth division's "Wang Han" who picked the red cross will fight against the ninth division's foreign aid "Zhou Lei" who is also a red cross. Please be prepared for both sides."
Hearing this, Zhou Lei's face was expressionless. Then he turned his eyes and looked at Wang Han beside him. Almost at the same time, Wang Han's eyes also turned to him. In an instant, the two looked at each other. Although there was no extra expression, they The breath around him suddenly stagnated.
Seeing this scene, the soldiers outside all started cheering, because they felt the strong sparks in Zhou Lei's eyes.
"Commander, come on, the Eighth Division is first!!"
"The Ninth Division is invincible!!"
