During the next half hour of marching, Jiang Chen discovered that demons here were very common.
The large-scale demon clan looks scary, but it cannot threaten the army.
Of course, if you meet someone alone, that's a different matter.
However, Jiang Chen noticed that there were blood-colored light beads in the bodies of the dead demons, and they were sucked into the battleship in the center of the army.
"How can a low-level demon have blood beads?" Jiang Chen was curious.
At this time, the army stopped in the air on a large mountain with scarce vegetation. On the flat area on the mountainside, there were many architectural puppets knocking.
A small number of soldiers and supervisors noticed the large army, turned around and ran away without hesitation.
"Shadow Chasing Army!"
The vanguard battalion of the central army rushed out like lightning and chased and killed them.
The enemy had almost no resistance and died under the butcher's knife. Almost all of them were in the Tongtian realm. Dozens of them died directly.
When the Shadow Chasing Army came back, they brought a dozen prisoners with them and were taken to the battleship for questioning.
At the same time, the Eighth Battalion began to search the unfinished city.
It's not so much a city as it is a building surrounded by four walls. It's not a house at all, but rows of square stones nailed to the ground like coffins.
"Is it possible that those guys from the Dragon-defying Army are digging graves for themselves?" the battalion commander of the Beifu Battalion slapped the rocks with his hands and said in a pretense of humor.
The Beifu Battalion Commander and the Feiqi Battalion Commander said they were severely punished, but now they seem to be unaffected.
Suddenly, the stone under the Beifu Battalion Commander's hand changed suddenly after he slapped it, and light appeared on the surface, condensed with dense runes.
"Back into the air!"
With an order, the Eighth Battalion quickly took off and was on full alert.
Fortunately, the light of the stone dimmed again and no danger occurred.
"You are reckless and stupid, so don't drag others along with you to suffer the consequences!" Qiu Yan reprimanded angrily.
"Hey, there's nothing wrong. Why are you so nervous?"
The Beifu battalion commander did not take it seriously. He suddenly noticed something and said with great interest: "Look at your soldiers, they are so scared."
After his words, people noticed that Jiang Chen's face was really ugly, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
"What's wrong?" Qiu Yan asked.
"This is not the only city. What the Dragon-Defying Army wants to build is not a city. They want to use the city to lay out an area that combines barriers and formations." Jiang Chen said solemnly.
"Are you sure?" Qiu Yan asked.
"Yes."
After receiving a positive answer, Qiu Yan put the token to his lips and whispered a few words.
Soon, an officer flew from the battleship, came to the Red Flame Camp, and asked: "What did you find?"
"It is a very important matter that needs to be reported to the general." Qiu Yan said.
"Follow me."
The officer nodded and led Jiang Chen and Qiu Yan to fly towards the battleship.
The people in the other camps were confused. They all discovered it together, so why could Jiang Chen discover something?
Arriving at the battleship, the two were taken outside the main camp, and the officer went in first to report.
On the battleship, Jiang Chen saw the military camp, including Xie Yan and Liu Yu.
Compared with the entire team, these noble children seemed out of place.
Xie Yan was also very surprised to see Jiang Chen, a small seventh-rank general, appear here.
After a while, Jiang Chen and Qiu Yan walked into the cabin.
In the cabin, all the senior officials of the Third Army were present. The relatively large cabin seemed very depressing, especially for Jiang Chen, who was in the Heaven-reaching realm.
General Du Zhenfei sat behind a large table, his eyes like the still surface of a lake.
"There is a military emergency. I don't want you to talk nonsense just for the sake of publicity. Here are the best formation masters and enchantment masters in the dynasty. Tell them your reasoning." Du Zhenfei said very directly.
"What the Dragon-Defying Army wants to build is not a city, but an absolute domain. The so-called four walls of the city are only used to ensure that the energy of the domain is not lost."
"This means that the city we just discovered is just one of them, and the Dragon-Defying Army may be building hundreds of such cities at the same time."
Obviously, his words changed the faces of the people in the cabin.
Because I got similar information from the prisoners just now.
However, those prisoners knew nothing about the domain, they only knew that in the huge basin in front, the Dragon-Defying Army was making big moves.
"Keep talking." Du Zhenfei said.
"The really tricky thing about the area to be arranged is that it only requires seven cities to be successful, and there are no particularly strong requirements for each other. Within a certain range, the seven cities that are completed the fastest are the last seven."
"In addition, once the first city is built, the time and speed required for the second one will be shortened by half, and so on."
His words caused the cabin to fall into an eerie silence.
"Worst-case scenario, how much time do we have?" Du Zhenfei asked.
"At the fastest, it only takes two days."
For this war that has been going on for several years, two days is really insignificant.
"We have taken note of what you said, let's go back now," Du Zhenfei said.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then he and Qiu Yan walked out of the cabin and flew towards the Red Flame Camp again.
"If you are right, they will find out. It's just that the military is strict and the authenticity of the news is very important." Qiu Yan said.
"I know." Jiang Chen smiled bitterly.
If he is allowed to be in the cabin as a staff officer, he can be of great use.
However, it is not easy for anyone who can stay in the cabin to reach that status.
Identity is one thing, the most important thing is loyalty or not.
Jiang Chen recalled that when he entered the cabin, the documents and maps on the desktop were covered to block his spiritual exploration.
Thinking about it, it is impossible for a general to trust someone who has just joined the army for less than half a month and has not experienced a war.
Even what Jiang Chen said just now has aroused people's suspicion.
It's very suspicious to get so much information from just one incomplete ruin.
Even if there is one percent chance that Jiang Chen is a spy, staying in the cabin will bring about a devastating crisis.
In the cabin, Du Zhenfei said: "What do you think of what he said?"
"It's not impossible." The best formation master and enchantment master from the dynasty gave a pertinent statement.
"I mean, it's impossible to tell this from a city that hasn't been built yet." When Du Zhenfei asked this question, his eyes flashed coldly.
"It's possible, but that's the case. His attainments in formations can be said to be top-notch in the true martial arts world."
"Is that so?" Du Zhenfei murmured.
When Jiang Chen and Qiu Yan returned to Red Flame Camp, new orders had been issued.
The army continued to advance, destroying all the cities it found.
"It seems you are right." When Qiu Yan received this order, he said to Jiang Chen.
