I had never been able to understand those technical terms.
Sandora naturally knew this. Almost before I showed a confused expression, she took the initiative to explain to me what a "World Circuit" was. "Simply put, it is a device that can completely overlap two points in a world.
In terms of function, it is very similar to a teleportation portal. "Sandora's expression was very solemn. It was obvious that this device called a" World Circuit "had given her a lot of pressure." Of course, the function of a World Circuit is far more than that. Conventional teleportation devices use space-folding technology to build a zero-distance tunnel and send physical objects to another coordinate in space. Such a teleportation requires a cooldown time to restore stability, and this technology also has certain requirements for the individual being teleported. However, a World Circuit is different. It doesn't teleport something to a certain place, but … it turns two addresses into one … "" Space coordinates are unique. This is the law that all space in any world has to abide by.
"Spatial coordinates are unique, and this is the law that all the spaces in the world abide by. Just like a coordinate grid line drawn on a piece of white paper, the point determined by two straight lines is unique. As long as the vertical and horizontal coordinates are fixed, then the point will also be fixed. There will never be a phenomenon where two points that are far away from each other have the same coordinate value — of course, this is all based on the premise that the law has not been broken, and the function of the World Circuit is to break this law. Every World Circuit is a pair of devices. Even if they are hundreds of millions of light years apart, as long as the two World Circuits are in the same world, they can set their internal space to the same spatial coordinates when they are activated. This may sound incredible, but Xi Ling Technology does have the ability to rewrite the law within a small range. Under the interference of the energy field of the World Circuit, two distant spaces will become the same location. For example, if a World Circuit is placed on Earth and Mars respectively, then as long as you stand in the World Circuit on Earth, you will be on Mars at the same time. This is a miracle that no so-called space transmission device can achieve. This means that there will be no cooldown time for conventional transmission devices to perform space jumps through the World Circuit, and there will also be no delay in the transmission process. There will also be no restrictions on the number and strength of the transmission units. Traveling between two planets will become even easier than opening the bedroom door. It will not even take a second, and it will not consume any extra energy — do you need me to explain more?"
Lin Xue bit her nails and said in a gloomy tone, "This is equivalent to turning Azeroth into their backyard."
Pointing at the black metal pillar in Shallow Shallow's arms, my sister asked the question we all had in common, "Then what is this thing used for?"
"The Odura Beacon is the most important part of the World Circuit. In fact, its structure is very simple, and even human technology on Earth can replicate something with a similar function — it is an energy probe, and its function is to collect all kinds of energy radiation around it. The activation of the World Circuit requires two parameters — the surrounding spatial coordinates and the nearby energy field parameters. The former determines whether it can turn two locations into one, and the latter acts as the basis for adjusting the activation of the World Circuit because even in the same world, the energy concentration between two distant spatial points is different. If no precautions are taken, once the two spatial points are connected, the high-energy area will definitely release catastrophic energy to the low-energy area. In order to avoid this situation, before the World Circuit is activated, it must be input into the fluctuation range of the nearby energy field. If I'm not wrong, the enemy we encountered today was completely an accident. This guy was only ordered to collect the energy fluctuations near the World Circuit, and it was his misfortune to meet us. Of course, this guy is also lucky. If it weren't for this high-resistance energy probe that resisted our first round of attacks, this guy would have been completely evaporated. Am I right, demon?"
At the mention of his most unfortunate event, Valimasas's old face couldn't help but blush slightly. He nodded gloomily and admitted, "This is indeed an accident. I received the order to retreat long before I encountered you, but …"
"Do you want to test if your new power is strong enough to take revenge?" I looked at Valimasas' gloomy expression in amusement. This was a rather strange thing, because the faces of demons were very different from humans. Valimasas' face was more than twice the size of a human's face, and its basic structure was far from the standard of a human's facial features. Such a face that seemed especially strange to me now revealed such a distinct gloomy expression. Should I say that my observational and associative abilities were more outstanding?
In response to my teasing, Valimasas clearly revealed anger. Even though he instantly concealed this anger with a perfectly sincere expression, it still didn't escape my eyes. I took a few steps in the air and patted the head of this six-meter tall demon. With a rather amiable tone, I said, "I've finished asking my questions. Now, I wish you and the scientists under me a pleasant weekend."
After leaving the spatial prison, we stood in the base that was gradually becoming lively. However, our moods couldn't be as relaxed as the excited warriors of the various races around us.
"The ignorant are truly blessed." Qian Qian sighed as she watched a group of human soldiers marching past her with unconcealable pride and excitement on their faces.
Her older sister made a more appropriate comment. "It should be said that they don't have to face the darkest truth. These fellows are truly blessed!"
"You can't count on these natives to fight against the Fallen Apostle," Sandora's spiritual connection sounded in every one of our minds. "They only need to divert the enemy's attention from this world."
"We need to plan our next move properly," I said with a frown. "First of all, that World Circuit must be destroyed before it is activated. A teleportation channel that is about the size of Gloom City and has no activation restrictions at all is in the hands of the enemy. God knows how many troops they have prepared at the other end of the World Circuit to invade this planet. Secondly, we have to find out as soon as possible whether the Fallen Apostle is still building something like this in other places. The exposure of this World Circuit is definitely outside of their plans. However, we can't always count on idiots like Valimasas to be entrusted with important tasks by the Fallen Apostle. That thing really makes me restless …"
Hearing my worries, Sandora revealed her signature sunny smile. "You don't have to worry about that. Things like World Circuits that can change the rules cannot be mass-produced. The fact that the Fallen Apostle was able to build a World Circuit in Gloom City has already greatly exceeded my expectations. Initially, I thought that it was already very impressive that they could repair their own teleportation device. However, it seems that I have underestimated their technological prowess. Even so, it is impossible for them to build two sets of World Circuits."

Later that day, we sent out the newest type of scout unit that had just come off the production line. They were a type of pure energy invisible unit known as the "Shadows of the Lost." These scouting units were forever in a state of phase invisibility. They had outstanding scouting talents just like the Undead Specters. Not only that, they also had a rather perverted ability: they could merge themselves into any form of energy flow. From this, they could permeate and move at an astonishing speed. With the hard work of these outstanding scouts, in just a short day, our "eyes" had extended to every corner of the Eastern Continent. The lightning in the sky, the rock stratum underground, the water in the river, and even the breeze that was everywhere. As long as there was a flow of energy, the "Shadows of the Lost" were left behind in the wretched … cough cough, swift figures of the "Shadows of the Lost." And the situation of the entire plague zone gradually appeared before our eyes.
"Tirisfal, Silverpine Forest, the Land of the Plague, the Land of the Specters … These areas have been completely covered by the undead plague. And the undead armies that are roaming around these areas have been confirmed to be members of the Calamity Army. Together with the demons that have been teleported to this world, they form the largest and most widely distributed main force in the plague zone. Layers upon layers of protection are protecting these locations that are unable to be observed by the Shadows of the Lost. Based on our initial deductions, these locations should be the bases that the Fallen Apostles have established."
In the monitoring hall of the fortress, Sives was currently introducing the information that the scouts had recently gathered. Other than Jingle, who was a little depressed because she had come to the Land of the Dead and was hiding in her own room, all the leaders, including the envoys of the various races, were participating in this impromptu meeting. Behind Sives was a gigantic wall that was formed by hundreds of floating screens. Those were the first-hand information that the "Shadows of the Lost" had sent back from deep within the enemy's territory. Every image displayed on the screen conveyed a rather pessimistic message to us.
The circular monitoring hall was so silent that one could hear a pin drop. The hundreds of floating screens displayed a scene that made no one feel happy. The corpses that were roaming around and the soil that was emitting strange black smoke made everyone frown.
"Currently, it can be confirmed that there are no longer any living beings in these three areas. Including human survivors, all living beings have been turned into undead. However, due to the short period of time, the enemy hasn't had the time to expand their territory to more areas. However, the undead plague is spreading very quickly. Once they find a breakthrough point, they will be able to easily destroy the defense lines in the surrounding areas. For example, the High Elves Country, Quel 'Thalas, which has yet to recover from the devastating blow of their previous invasion."
As Sives spoke, he enlarged the images behind him. What appeared before our eyes was a scene that resembled a ghost town.
Rotting, charred land, dirty and gloomy sky, as well as disgusting rotting corpses and skeletons that were roaming around. Just by looking at this scene, I felt as though I could smell the stench of decay at the scene.
Slightly further away on the screen, a faint light blue halo could be seen. That was the magic barrier that the surviving High Elves had erected. The once glorious and powerful High Elven Kingdom could only rely on this magic barrier that could be extinguished at any moment to survive.
There was no sign of the High Elves among the envoys of the various races. Although they were once a part of the Alliance, due to the disaster that almost destroyed their kingdom and the conflict between the Elves and the humans that Arthas had single-handedly caused, the High Elves — or perhaps it should be called the Blood Elves now — did not appear among these envoys.
A withered hand bone suddenly appeared on one of the images. Then, the image rapidly retreated. It turned out that a newly revived Skeleton Warrior was breaking out of the ground and burrowing out of the ground.
"Their numbers are still expanding. Many years of war have accumulated a large number of skeletons in the areas that were once battlefields. Soon, the entire plague zone will be filled with walking corpses and cracking bones."
