Sensational, choose the legion station! (5200)
Thus, Cao Xing timely sent a message in the chat channel.
"Everyone, I am Cao Xing."
Because he rarely spoke in the chat channel, coupled with the recent server-wide announcement, it naturally drew a massive amount of attention.
In an instant, a massive wave of messages erupted!
"Holy shit! It's the real Great Lord Cao Xing, this legendary figure has spoken!"
"Capturing the server number one alive, taking a screenshot together!"
"Great Lord Cao Xing! I am your little fan girl!"
"Big Brother Cao Xing, how did you achieve ten thousand prosperity? Can you reveal it to everyone?"
There were simply too many messages to read through.
Right at this moment, several hundred members of the Ice Tiger spoke up simultaneously.
"Everyone stop spamming the screen, see what Great Lord Cao Xing is about to say. With you guys spamming like this, we can't see anything *N."
With hundreds of people sending messages simultaneously, most Survivors saw the message.
The crowd gradually stopped spamming, and the frantically scrolling chat channel calmed down.
Cao Xing spoke up at the right time: "Next, I plan to create a legion, and then I am ready to recruit a batch of Survivors."
"If anyone is interested, you can come and join my legion."
"It's best for lords who have a certain foundation and whose strength is decent to join."
As soon as these words were said, the chat channel caused an uproar once again!
"Holy shit! Great Lord Cao Xing is actually going to create a legion? Did I hear that right?"
"Yeah, we thought Great Lord Cao Xing was going to keep being a lone ranger and be invincible all by himself!"
"Since this person has created a legion, I'm definitely joining to the max!"
"Great Lord Cao Xing, where is your legion headquarters? I'll come over and join right away!"
"Xu Hong, you are a person from our Ruoshui Legion, do you fucking want to betray me or what?"
"Screw you! Great Lord Cao Xing has already created a legion, I am definitely abandoning the dark and turning to the light to defect to him!"
"This humble one has drifted for half a lifetime without meeting an enlightened master. Adoptive Father Cao Xing is above, please accept this bow from me!"
Looking at the fanatical chat channel.
The legion commanders of the four major regions felt a mixed bag of emotions in their hearts at this moment.
This was the appeal of this man.
Thinking back, whenever they recruited people before, it was extremely difficult. They even had to promise certain benefits and negotiate terms before other Survivors would join.
Yet as soon as this man appeared and stated his intention to create a legion, countless experts among the Survivors prepared to defect.
Among them were a few existences that they had tried hard to win over for a long time without success, yet now they were scrambling to join Cao Xing's legion.
Sighing slightly, they also knew their prestige couldn't compare to this man's.
At the same time, Cao Xing said again: "Everyone, don't worry, let me tell you about the legion's situation first."
"The location of this legion is roughly near my territory. It can be considered an initial territory, and everything must start from scratch."
"Including the territory's infrastructure, personnel, resources, and so on, everything is just getting started."
"Moreover, I usually don't appear much in this legion. The territory's affairs are managed by others, so it's equivalent to just holding a nominal title."
"Of course, since it's near my territory, I can still provide some assistance when problems arise."
"Therefore, if you want to join, take a look at the conditions I mentioned first."
Hearing this, the soaring enthusiasm of the Survivors instantly extinguished quite a bit.
They had thought they were directly joining Cao Xing's territory!
Through understanding over this period of time, many Survivors knew the location of Cao Xing's territory.
There were also quite a few Survivors who secretly came near his territory, took a few photos, and uploaded them to the forum. Although they couldn't see the full view of the territory, just looking at that patch of towering city walls and arrow towers could show how prosperous this territory was.
Living in such a territory must be extremely safe.
And even more crucially, they could see Cao Xing every day!
As a result, what he meant now was that he was creating a sub-branch, which also made the Survivors somewhat disappointed.
However, this still couldn't block the enthusiasm of some Survivors.
After all, they all knew how strong this man was!
Even if it was just a sub-branch, it would definitely have more potential than other legions.
A large number of Survivors eagerly signed up.
"Great Lord Cao Xing, a sub-branch is fine too, I just happen to have never joined a legion!"
"Yeah! I haven't joined either. Developing a territory together with everyone and starting from scratch is even better."
"Haha! Joining now makes us founding members, we'll have face when speaking of it in the future, brothers rush!"
"Great Lord Cao Xing, hurry up and announce the location, we can't wait anymore."
Cao Xing replied in the chat channel: "Alright, everyone wait a moment."
"After I finish creating the legion here, I will notify you again."
After finishing, he closed the chat channel.
And a large number of Survivors waited excitedly in the chat channel.
At the same time, Cao Xing's mailbox once again reached 999999+.
Aside from those Survivors in the four major regions preparing to join the legion, there were also emails sent by Survivors from all over the world.
Including his only few friends who were also contacting him.
Obviously, the world announcement plus the information that Cao Xing was going to create a legion attracted who knows how many people's attention.
Those mailbox messages could be ignored; after all, there were over a million of them, and reading them for days and nights wouldn't finish them. However, his friends' messages needed to be checked.
Thus, Cao Xing first checked Yao Yiming's message.
Yao Yiming: "Great Lord Cao Xing, are you going to create a legion?"
Cao Xing replied: "Yes."
Yao Yiming said: "I see from your meaning that you want to develop a territory from scratch. Is everything in this territory starting from scratch?"
"That's right, because my territory here will still maintain its original development rhythm, so I can only develop a second territory."
Upon hearing this, Yao Yiming immediately replied: "Actually, there's no need to be so troublesome, Great Lord Cao Xing."
"You can just directly take over my territory."
Cao Xing was slightly stunned.
But thinking carefully, this actually seemed like a good choice!
First, Yao Yiming's territory wasn't far from his territory, only a dozen kilometers away, and he could reach it in a few minutes.
In addition, the other party's territory had also been developed for a few months.
The furnace, Lords Manor, and various buildings were basically all complete.
It could be said that as long as they went over, it could save at least one or two months of development time.
Plus their cooperation in the previous few times, their coordination was quite good, and they could be considered to have maintained a good cooperative relationship.
Cao Xing's heart stirred slightly, but before that, he still needed to confirm once more.
"Are you sure there's no problem?"
"If your territory is used as the legion garrison, I might distribute the permissions of those buildings to others."
"Even the command authority of the staff and combatants in your territory won't be completely in your hands."
Yao Yiming replied readily: "Of course no problem, Great Lord Cao Xing!"
"My life was saved by you, and our family has also received your help."
"Without you, there wouldn't be my territory today."
"As for those command authorities and things, if they are people sent by Great Lord Cao Xing, we have even less to worry about. It just so happens that I can also become a hands-off boss."
Cao Xing smiled.
The reason why he helped him several times before was because Yao Yiming had a pretty decent character.
Although his strength wasn't strong, at least he knew how to be grateful.
Look, now he immediately thought of contributing his own territory to repay him.
Of course, this was also a good thing for Yao Yiming.
Obviously, after Cao Xing sent people to station there, the strength of his territory would experience a massive surge.
Facing the upcoming crisis, there would also be more guarantees.
"Alright, I'll bring people over to take a look at your territory in a bit," Cao Xing replied.
Hearing him agree, the tone on the other side also appeared very happy.
He quickly replied: "Alright, I'm right in the territory, awaiting your arrival at any time."
After closing the private chat with Yao Yiming, Cao Xing chuckled and shook his head.
"I didn't expect the legion headquarters issue to be resolved so quickly. This is indeed not bad."
Then, he continued to open the private chat channel to check the message sent by Ji Xinyue.
"Great Lord Cao Xing, you've finally created a legion!"
Cao Xing was slightly dazed, then asked doubtfully: "What's wrong, have you been waiting for me to create a legion for a long time?"
"That's right!"
Ji Xinyue replied excitedly: "You should know that I created a Xingyue Legion, and it has already been upgraded to level 3, right?"
"I know, what's up?" Cao Xing replied.
"The original intention of creating this legion was to have you be the commander and then take it over."
"By then, everyone in our entire legion will come over to defect to you. It's good to lean against a big tree for shade, hehehe—"
Cao Xing was stunned once again, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart.
He hadn't expected that this girl's purpose in creating a legion was actually to have him take it over.
No wonder her legion was named 'Xingyue Legion'.
Smiling helplessly, he shook his head.
Ji Xinyue continued on her end: "However, Great Lord Cao Xing, please rest assured. I definitely won't overstep my bounds."
"The members of the Star-Moon Legion are very united, and everyone admires you a lot. They will definitely obey your words one hundred percent."
"When the time comes, just give me the position of Vice Commander!"
However, upon hearing Ji Xinyue's proposal, Cao Xing did not agree immediately.
Clearly, if she brought people over right now,
Cao Xing would not only solve the problem of the territory's garrison, but even directly resolve the matter of the territory's members.
It could be said to be a single leap to the heavens.
However, it hadn't been easy for the Star-Moon Legion to develop to this day and level up to Level 3.
Cao Xing had also seen those legion members during the last Ice Dragon challenge, and their combat qualities were quite good.
After all this time, they had developed a considerable tacit understanding in cooperation.
In other words, they were essentially equivalent to a fixed group.
Furthermore, as the territory developed next, Cao Xing would definitely continue to expand the legion,
By then, once the number of people increased, they would inevitably face a redistribution of personnel, and the ranks of the Star-Moon Legion would also be disrupted.
Cao Xing pondered for a moment, then said: "How about this, Xinyue, keep your Star-Moon Legion there as it is for now, and you don't need to come over yet."
Hearing this, Ji Xinyue on the other end immediately sounded a bit downcast,
"Ah? Why is that, Great Lord Cao Xing——"
"Do you think that the people in our legion are too weak in strength?" she asked tentatively.
Cao Xing replied with a smile: "Of course not, it's just that I have a better arrangement for your Star-Moon Legion."
"Next, the legion I newly created will develop very quickly."
"After things stabilize on my end, you can lead the entire legion to join my legion, and then your side can also develop synchronously as a branch legion. There's no need for everyone to crowd here at a single legion garrison."
"What do you think?"
Ji Xinyue fell silent for a moment on her end, but she quickly realized that Cao Xing's plan was indeed the best choice.
In this way, it wouldn't disrupt the personnel of her Star-Moon Legion, and they could continue to cooperate in the future.
It was equivalent to achieving a win-win situation, which was still quite good!
"Alright, Great Lord Cao Xing, I'll listen to whatever you say."
"Then I'll just wait in the territory for your instructions at any time!"
"Very well."
After closing the private message,
Cao Xing chuckled: "In this way, the matter of the branch legion is also settled."
"This time creating the legion has been unexpectedly smooth."
"13"
If other legion commanders knew that Cao Xing created a legion so smoothly, they would probably die of jealousy.
After all, for these commanders during the early stages of creating a legion, which one of them didn't face thousands of hardships?
From territory planning, personnel recruitment, resource allocation, to accepting staff from other territories and so on, there were simply too many various issues.
It could be said that all the way here, every legion commander stepped into some pitfalls more or less.
And Cao Xing's side could be said to have directly skipped these steps.
"Next, it's time to go to Yao Yiming's territory and directly create the legion."
However, before that, Cao Xing still had to issue quests to these warriors first.
Thus, he commanded: "All warriors who have broken through, step out of the ranks."
In an instant, more than 1,500 people all stood out.
Aside from those warrior classes, there were also Silver Hand Knights, Star Country swordsmen, and Nightmare Archer, etc.
Either they used the Expert-level Heart of Strength to break through to Tier 5, or they used Balthazar's divine altar to break through to Tier 6.
Now they all needed to kill a large number of monsters to level up and enhance their own strength.
Cao Xing said: "Next, you 1,500 people will be divided into 15 teams, organized in groups of a hundred people,
to search for enhanced Ice Nests from different directions."
"In addition, the Silver Hand Knights will take the griffins to search within a range of two hundred kilometers around the territory,
and whenever you see the location of an enhanced Ice Nest, report it immediately in the team channel."
"Nearby warriors will converge at the coordinates of the Silver Hand Knights, and then wipe out the Ice Nests inside."
"Everyone remember to return to the territory before dark."
On the field, everyone exchanged glances with each other, and then respectfully said: "Yes! Respected Lord Master!"
With those words falling, the thousand-plus people split into more than ten teams and quickly left the territory like marching ants.
Then, Cao Xing looked at Tian Jing beside him and said: "Let's go, you will come with me shortly."
"The legion over there will be handed over to you to manage next."
Tian Jing instantly felt a wave of pressure!
Prior to this, he didn't even have much combat experience, let alone managing a legion!
However, during this period of time, he had also prepared himself mentally, and replied solemnly: "Boss, I will pour all my effort into managing your legion well!"
Cao Xing nodded slightly, and then looked towards Liu Muxue beside him.
"Muxue, you come with us as well."
This female knight nodded gently, "Alright."
Then, Cao Xing whistled and summoned two griffins.
The three of them quickly jumped onto the backs of the griffins.
Tian Jing rode one alone, while he and Liu Muxue shared another.
With the fluttering of the griffins' wings, they quickly carried the three of them soaring into the high altitude.
Then, like two sharp arrows, they rushed towards the distance.
"Swish!"
The surrounding scenery rapidly retreated backward!
In less than two minutes, they arrived near Yao Yiming's territory and approached the center of his territory.
A system prompt appeared.
[Do you want to apply to visit the territory of the Survivor Lord: Yao Yiming?]
"Yes." Cao Xing directly clicked confirm.
In less than two seconds, the system prompt was heard.
[Application successful. The other lord has agreed to your entry. You can now proceed to the other party's territory without being attacked by arrow towers.]
Soon, the two griffins carried Cao Xing and flew into the sky above Yao Yiming's territory.
From this angle, the full view of his territory could already be seen.
Compared to two months ago, Yao Yiming's territory had also undergone quite a few changes.
Remembering when he first met him, this territory didn't even have walls, and there were only a few crude buildings inside.
Nowadays, not only was the edge of the territory surrounded by a layer of mixed primary and intermediate city walls, but its diameter had also reached an astonishing one kilometer!
Along the edge of the territory's city walls, there were also rows of intermediate Elemental Arrow Towers,
and beside them were placed the ten [Destroyer Ballistas] gifted to him by Cao Xing.
Compared to most lords, the defensive power of his territory was still quite formidable.
However, Yao Yiming's territory layout appeared quite messy, basically lacking any planning.
Next to the Lords Manor, a patch of greenhouses had been built, inside which some lush green vegetables were planted.
A cluster of residential houses was built around a toilet, and right next to the toilet was the cafeteria.
It could be said that wherever there was open space, they would build there. This was also the current status of most Survivor lords; after all, they didn't have the [Giant Strength Vines] in Cao Xing's territory to change the territory's layout at will.
This kind of tearing down and building up consumed a massive amount of resources and time.
At the current stage, let it be messy.
After observing for a moment, Cao Xing found an open space where they could land.
"Let's go there."
"Screech——" The griffins let out crisp cries and quickly carried the three of them down to land.
At this moment, following their arrival,
the staff and combat personnel in this territory all looked at these two griffins with expressions of astonishment.
After all, these adult griffins possessed the boss-level strength of a full level 70. Just any one of them could cause extremely severe damage to this territory, or even wipe it out completely!
For the residents of this territory, just looking at these griffins naturally brought a trace of pressure to their hearts.
Meanwhile, Cao Xing and the others had already jumped down from the backs of the griffins.
A moment later, the door of the Lords Manor was pushed open, and two figures walked out from inside.
The male was wearing a set of mixed-and-matched battle armor and holding a pistol in his hand, looking like a Frost Iron Mechanic class.
As for the female, she was wearing a set of tight-fitting leather attire that outlined her tall and slender figure, and she also carried a large bow measuring a full meter long on her back!
It was precisely Yao Yiming and his younger sister Yao Ying.
The two of them hurried over to Cao Xing's side, saying with pleasantly surprised smiles: "Great Lord Cao Xing, your speed is too fast, right?"
"You arrived in just these few short minutes, we haven't even reacted yet!"
The younger sister Yao Ying at the side looked at the two behemoths beside them with a face full of amazement, exclaiming:
"Wow! Are these griffins?"
Liu Muxue chuckled softly: "Yes, you can come and pet them."
Hearing this, Yao Ying's eyes instantly lit up!
"Really? Sister Muxue!"
"Of course." Liu Muxue replied.
