Jin Xinyue took more than ten deep breaths in a row, unable to stop herself from biting her tongue. She breathed heavily and said, "Master, are you suggesting that the Red Tide Plan that I discovered was intentionally exposed by my father, and that it is not the real Red Tide Plan but just another disguise?"
Li Yao asked back, "Do you not feel that the Red Tide Plan is too simple, crude, and even naïve for the commander-in-chief of the Coalition Army of Demons and the nominal leader of the Blood Demon Sector?"
Jin Xinyue's chest was heaving quickly, and her eyes were unfocused. She mumbled, "Has my father fooled everybody? Then — then, what is the real Red Tide Plan? How did you learn it, Master? "
For a moment, Jin Xinyue almost suspected that her master and her father were in cahoots!
Li Yao sat cross-legged and rubbed his temples softly to ease the explosive pressure caused by the high-speed operation of his brain. He analyzed calmly, "In order to crack the Red Tide Plan, I've been thinking about a problem, which is how the Coalition Army of Demons can be teleported to the heartland of the Xing Yao Federation?
"The Tian Yuan Realm and the Blood Demon Sector are in the process of integration. They are like two eggs that are slowly touching each other. The Dark Desolate Domain is the contact point where the two eggs collide and are crushed. The 'eggshell' here is basically broken. Naturally, the egg white and the egg yolk inside can circulate freely.
"Therefore, it is relatively easy to teleport from the Dark Desolate Domain. Very stable natural wormholes will be generated without casting any spells!
"However, after passing through the wormholes in the Dark Desolate Domain, we will be faced with the boundless Grand Desolate Plateau, which will be a great pressure on the logistics.
"After the Battle of Dawn, the towns of human beings on the Grand Desolate Plateau have all been abandoned. Everybody has migrated to the back of the Giant Blade Pass. Even if the Coalition Army of Demons wants to loot and burn, they won't be able to find any prey.
"Therefore, marching on this road will be impossible. Even if the Blood Demon Sector is mobilized in full strength, it will be useless. All of them are just throwing their lives away! "
"Your father could only find another way. On the surface, it seemed that he was looking for the secret wormhole that the Far East Demon Kingdom opened years ago. He wanted to sneak in through the 'path' behind the Federation!"
Jin Xinyue frowned. "Is it not?"
Li Yao said, "Whether it is or not, we will know after we analyze it."
"Firstly, the secret wormhole that the Far East Demon Kingdom established years ago was meant for the few nobles to flee to the Blood Demon Sector. Then, how large is the wormhole? How stable is it? "
"Let thousands, tens of thousands of nobles. It's one thing for them to flee to the Blood Demon Sector in batches in several years.
"Teleporting hundreds of thousands or even millions of soldiers armed to the teeth and equipped with large-scale war equipment to the Tian Yuan Realm in the blink of an eye is another matter altogether!"
"In the past, the Far East Demon Kingdom wasn't particularly strong. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been destroyed by the Xing Yao Federation. Was it really possible for them to open up such a large wormhole in such a precarious situation? Also, why is the wormhole so stable? Has it not perished after five hundred years of erosion? "
"Passing through a wormhole is extremely risky. If there is a careless mistake, the entire army will be lost in the storm of the four-dimensional space! "
"Any random wave may completely obliterate an expert. If a demon emperor is teleported through such an unstable wormhole, won't it be very embarrassing if he discovers that he has lost his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys on the way when he is teleported over?"
"It's like building a bridge that was built five hundred years ago and has been in disrepair for a long time between the cliffs. The bridge is so fragile that it can't even stand. In the valley between the cliffs. The ninth-level storms are blowing all year round, making the bridge shake. It looks like it will fall apart at any moment! "
"Down below, it is an abyss with raging tides and eternal damnation!"
"Yet, your father wants thousands of soldiers to cross the bridge? Is he crazy? "
Jin Xinyue opened her mouth, but she did not know what to say.
Li Yao continued. "Also, your father's Red Tide Plan claims that the counterattack bases left by the Far East Demon Kingdom five hundred years ago will be used as a stronghold for the Coalition Army of Demons to march forward.
"However, as far as I know, the Xing Yao Federation has excavated the relics of the Far East Demon Kingdom very thoroughly, and they have never found an intact counterattack base in the coastal area.
"Even if the Far East Demon Kingdom did leave some counterattack bases in a certain inconspicuous place on the coastline, there is still the same problem. After five hundred years of scourge, are the bases reliable enough? Are they enough to accommodate so many Coalition Army of Demons? Are the rune arrays and the demonic artifacts that maintain the bases still functioning?
"Besides, although the Far East Demon Kingdom and the Blood Demon Sector both belong to the demon race, the focus of the biochemical technology of the two parties is still slightly different. Are the assets that the Far East Demon Kingdom prepared perfectly compatible with the experts, biochemical beasts, and devilish warships of the Blood Demon Sector?
"I don't believe that your father didn't consider the questions carefully!
"Therefore, my question is …
"Does the marvelous' secret wormhole of the Far East Demon Kingdom ', which is claimed to lead directly to the eastern coastline of the Federation, really exist?"
Jin Xinyue was almost dumbfounded as if she had been struck by lightning. She said in a hurry, "But — but if the wormhole does not exist, how is the Coalition Army of Demons going to be teleported to it?"
Li Yao narrowed his eyes and mumbled, "This is the central question that has been bothering me for a long time. Is there a way to project the most elite troops of the Blood Demon Sector to the heart of the Xing Yao Federation instantly?
"For example, is it possible to build a certain 'super teleportation array' and tear apart the fragile barrier between the two worlds so that an arrow can pierce through the heart?"
Jin Xinyue hesitated for a moment and shook her head. "I don't think the Blood Demon Sector has such technology. The largest super teleportation array that we have built is the Eye of Blood Demon.
"It took almost ten years to build the Eye of Blood Demon. Most of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and materials that were used to build teleportation arrays in the Blood Demon Sector have been exhausted.
"Right now, we have neither the resources nor the technology to build a second super teleportation array.
"But the teleportation method of the Eye of Blood Demon is completely different from the requirements of the Red Tide Plan. It can project a few elite troops ten thousand lightyears away, but it is impossible to project thousands of troops to a world that is right next to us."
Li Yao smiled. "Yes. More than ten years ago, the Tian Yuan Realm and the Blood Demon Sector discovered 'Boneyard' ten thousand lightyears away almost at the same time. To explore the unknown planet, the two Sectors devoted all their resources to the construction of super teleportation arrays for long-distance projection.
"In the Tian Yuan Realm. We built the 'Heaven's Artillery'.
"In the Blood Demon Sector, you built the 'Eye of Blood Demon'.
"I was teleported to Boneyard through the Heaven's Artillery. I was teleported to Boneyard through the Heaven's Artillery.
"The best demon general troop of the demon race, led by Wang Ji of the Kingdom of Lion Butchers, was teleported to Boneyard through the Eye of Blood Demon, too.
"Later, I executed Wang Ji and was teleported to the depths of the sea of stars together with Skeleton Dragon. That's how everything happened.
"The purpose of the Heaven's Artillery and the Eye of Blood Demon was to explore the sea of stars. Therefore, the distance of teleportation was more important than the number of people that could be carried.
"Let's see. We can regard most teleportation arrays as two different types of slingshots.
"The first type is called 'Super Long Slingshot'. It can launch a stone weighing half a kilogram to a hundred kilometers away.
"The second type is called 'Super Heavy Slingshot'. It can launch a stone weighing one ton to five hundred meters away.
"One of them values the distance, and the other values the weight of the teleportation object. Do you understand?"
Jin Xinyue nodded. The metaphor was straightforward and easy to understand. Of course, she understood it.
"The Heaven's Artillery and the Eye of Blood Demon are both the first type," Li Yao said. "Super Long Slingshot is used to teleport the few elites to extremely distant places, isn't it?"
"Yes," Jin Xinyue said. "But what the Red Tide Plan calls for is the second type, 'Super Heavy Slingshot'!
"The Blood Demon Sector and the Heaven's Origin Sector are close enough to each other. They are only one arm's length away from each other. It will be a waste to teleport any further. What we need is the ability to carry the weight of thousands of soldiers!
"With the resources and technology of the Blood Demon Sector right now, it is impossible to craft a large enough 'Super Heavy Slingshot'. Otherwise, we wouldn't have broken into the Tian Yuan Realm from the Dark Desolate Domain every time!"
Li Yao blinked and said, "What do you think? The two types of slingshots can be modified. Can they be converted to each other? "
Jin Xinyue was dazed for a moment. She pondered for a moment and said, "The design mechanism of the two types of teleportation arrays is different from each other. The distribution and construction methods of the rune arrays are different. It is unlikely that they can be converted to each other, right? "
"You are wrong."
"Do you know how I returned from the Flying Star Sector?" Li Yao asked.
"The regular space jump technology of the Flying Star Sector is not yet advanced enough to communicate with the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Blood Demon Sector freely.
"But in the Flying Star Sector, we discovered a mysterious planet named 'Ice King'. There was an enormous super teleportation array on the planet. The purpose of the super teleportation array was to refine the entire planet into a 'planetary warship' and push it forward with the teleportation array so that it could perform a 'short-distance jump' within the Flying Star Sector.
"No matter how large a planet is and how many materials it contains, it can be teleported through the teleportation array. Wouldn't the teleportation array be an enormous' Super Heavy Slingshot '?"
Jin Xinyue's eyes suddenly shone. "It sounds like a super teleportation array that my father is in dire need of right now. A super army that can teleport thousands of soldiers in one go!"
Li Yao nodded. "Indeed. But at that time, what we needed was not a 'Super Heavy Slingshot' that could teleport thousands of soldiers but a 'Super Long Slingshot' that was similar to the 'Heaven's Artillery' and the strengthened version of the 'Eye of Blood Demon', which could allow me and a few of my companions to return to our home across the sea of stars!
"Therefore, the specialists of the Flying Star Sector performed comprehensive modifications on the teleportation array on Ice King. Eventually, the teleportation mode of the planet was completely changed, transforming it from a 'planetary warship' into a 'super long-range cosmic slingshot'!
"Do you see what I'm getting at now?"
Jin Xinyue immediately realized what was going on. She said excitedly, "Master, you're saying that since 'super heavy slingshots' can be modified into 'super long slingshots', it is entirely possible to modify 'super long slingshots' into 'super heavy slingshots' in reverse!"
"The 'Eye of Blood Demon', the only super teleportation array in the Blood Demon Sector, is a 'Super Long Space Slingshot' that focuses on the distance of teleportation but neglects the quantity.
