The Western Plaguelands.
At least it used to be the Western Plaguelands.
Three days ago, the huge Sky Fortress crashed on this rotten wasteland, and then completely changed everything here.
The high-temperature shockwave produced by the explosion easily flattened all the hills and highlands of the Western Plaguelands, covering the entire land with a layer of black glass that was hundreds of meters thick. Countless high undead and assembled demons, who were supposed to be the second wave of defense for the Fallen Apostles, could not react in time and were turned into ashes by the shockwave and the deadly heat. Not only did the high temperature of the explosion melt the earth, but it also produced steam that covered half of the Western Plaguelands, which could kill any life within a second, turning the dead land into a true forbidden zone for life. In the middle of the land, with the crash site of the Eternal Battleship as the center, one-third of the land in the Western Plaguelands had turned into a huge magma lake. The once terrifying battleship was now stuck in the magma at an oblique angle, constantly bursting out small-scale explosions. From afar, it looked like a piece of burnt coal that was still emitting sparks. Inside the battleship, the out-of-control energy furnace was still radiating a large amount of psionic energy. The scattered energy, under the effect of high temperature and strong magnetic field, caused a chain reaction, which kept the magma lake of millions of square kilometers from cooling down.
The sky was dark, but it was not night. A large amount of dust had blocked out the sunlight, and the dust belt that had entered the atmosphere would not be able to return to the ground in the next few months. For at least half a year, the Western Plaguelands and some areas around it would probably face long and cold winter nights. What was more troublesome was that the dust belt was still spreading as the atmosphere moved. If this continued, it would not take long for the entire Eastern Continent's ecosystem to collapse due to the disaster — just like a nuclear winter.
Of course, the situation was not that bad yet. The laws of the World of Azeroth were slightly different from those on Earth, and its atmospheric flow did not seem to follow conventional aerodynamics or any other atmospheric operation that the people on Earth were familiar with. Three days later, the spreading of the dust had obviously slowed down. Although the reason was unknown, at least it had saved countless lives in the Eastern Continent.
As for the Western Plaguelands that would have to face the harsh winter nights … well, the place had no ecosystem in the first place, and after the impact of the Eternal-class Fortress Ship's explosion, not even single-celled organisms would have survived. Let's just delay the arrival of spring.
A massive aerial fleet advanced silently under the pitch-black 'night sky', the few weak lights making the war machines that blocked out the sun and the sky appear as ferocious and bizarre as ghosts streaking across the night sky. Beneath the fleet was the land that had been turned into wasteland, and several small magma lakes that had yet to cool made the scorched glass look like a black velvet carpet that had been ignited by a few sparks, emitting an eerie presence of danger. Further away, beyond the horizon, red light illuminated the sky as if a red sun was about to erupt from there. That was the crash site of the Eternal-class fortress, now a magma lake that spanned millions of square kilometers.
"I really didn't expect that the explosion of that thing would be so powerful."
I said with a tone of amazement as I stood on the command tower of the aerial fortress, looking down at the land that looked like it was the end of the world.
Sandora stood next to me, the corners of her lips curling up faintly. Her beautiful ocean-blue eyes reflected the boundless magma that was gradually appearing on the horizon. She reached out her hand as if she wanted to grab something, then said, "Very soon, those depraved fellows will also turn into the same wreckage and ashes."
"Has the war fatigue passed?" I smiled as I looked at the beautiful girl who was brimming with boundless confidence next to me, giving her a perfect blow.
As expected, the noble and confident Princess Zhange immediately wilted. She waved her small fists at me with a pale face, then cupped her hands in front of her chest like a saintess, "We want peace, we want to make this world a better place …"
These words coming from the mouth of the person who had excitedly gathered with Pandora yesterday to formulate the Tirisfal Blitzkrieg plan was really unconvincing.
"Brother! Brother! " A clear voice came from behind me. I didn't need to turn my head to know who was calling me in such a way. It was the cheap sister who seemed to have descended from the sky, Visca.
When I turned my head, as expected, Visca, who was wearing a loose black cloak, had messy bird's nest hair, and was covered in dust, was running over to me.
Let's first ridicule this girl's black cloak, which was almost as famous as Sicarro's black suit, in my head for about three minutes in my head.
"You fought with Sister Pandora again?" I said with a headache as I helped her pat off the dust on her body. She nodded her head with a happy expression, "Yes!"
She didn't deny the word 'sister' in my words at all. This was really a happy change, but …
What are you so happy about! You're using this as a reason to come and act spoiled to me! You should go back and reflect on yourself, not come here to ask for credit and smile foolishly at me! Also, how long do you intend to wear this cloak! Your dimensional pocket simply has a factory that produces black cloaks, right?!
Ah, I accidentally used up two points of ridicule.
After three days of getting along, Visca actually integrated herself so naturally between us. The speed was so fast that even I, who was already prepared, couldn't adapt at all. No, it shouldn't be said that she integrated. From the moment she shared Pandora's memories, this girl who had always been a little abnormal regarded herself as one of our members. She even openly placed herself in the position of my sister. That was why she was still unable to realize the fact that she was actually a prisoner of war. She also couldn't understand why there were so many Schilling officers following behind her. This situation could only be explained by cognitive bias and psychological defects.
Fortunately, from the beginning, we didn't really treat this pitiful little girl as an enemy. After a few days of observation and after Lin Xue used her nth sense to confirm that the other party really didn't have any malicious intentions, we also tacitly acquiesced to the phenomenon of Visca wandering around the fortress. Although this decision made many commanders in charge of the base's security feel that the pear was huge and incomprehensible.
Of course, whenever this little troublemaker happily challenged Pandora to a duel and then complained to me after getting beaten up, I still felt that I should find a chain to chain her up …
"Visca, as far as you know, when will those guys complete the world circuit?" When I finally tidied up the little girl's hair that had turned into a bird's nest because of the fight with her sister, Sandora suddenly spoke.
"About three or four days …" Visca's blood-red vertical pupils narrowed slightly, as if she had thought of something very interesting. "Last time, that idiot demon broke a very important part and lost the data that was collected with great difficulty. So, the opening of the world circuit was delayed … Ha, brother, do you want me to help you blow it up?! I know where the most vulnerable part of that thing is! "
Blow up your sister! You can't even beat Little Bubble. How are you going to blow it up now?! Have you forgotten that you are now an ordinary person?!
Without hesitation, I pinched Visca's soft little face and began to rub it with a frequency of 50Hz. The latter's face kept changing into all kinds of funny shapes, and she also made a small protest, "If the locking device is removed … I am very powerful! I am definitely more powerful than Pandora! "
"No!" I immediately objected, "Your self-repair has not been completed. Don't think that I don't know what you are trying to do."
At the beginning, Sandora had installed an energy locking device in Visca's body. At that time, the purpose was naturally to prevent the other party from causing damage in the fortress. However, now that we had confirmed that Visca had no malicious intentions, we still hadn't removed the device. The purpose was to protect her — this impulsive girl wanted to prove that she was better than Pandora, and her violent nature was no less than her sister's. In addition, she would go crazy when she was sober. I really didn't dare to remove the energy locking device on her body. Otherwise, even if I had to burn myself to ashes, Visca would drag her seriously damaged body to the battlefield.
Even though Visca looked so obedient and likable now, her stubborn side hadn't disappeared at all. It was just that this girl's personality was occasionally a little normal. However, as long as it was a competition with Pandora, Visca would be terrifyingly stubborn. Thus, before her body was completely repaired, I definitely didn't dare to remove the energy locking device.
This pair of awkward sisters … I really didn't know how to deal with them. Hopefully, my sister's' Adult Sister Halo 'that could suppress all disobedient children would produce some unexpected good results … Theoretically …
"However, Visca's idea does have some merit …"
After I finally managed to coax and coax Visca away, Sandora suddenly said such a sentence.
"It can't be? Do you really intend to let her do such a crazy thing? "
Sandora shook her head, "Of course not, I am not crazy … It's just that, have you ever thought about how strong the defensive line that the Fallen Apostles have set up in Tirisfa at such a critical moment?"
I expressed that I had no idea at all.
"Alright, I've lost to you …" Sandora looked like she had completely given up, and then simply said, "Now, all the troops of the Fallen Apostles in the World of Azeroth have been gathered in that small area, including about 500,000 elite Schilling soldiers and tens of millions of undead and assembled demons. Moreover, according to Visca, they can activate the army teleporter six times in three days. Although the teleporter's efficiency has been greatly reduced due to damage, a conservative estimate is that they can teleport at least 50,000 Schilling soldiers each time they activate the teleporter. In this way, they have gained another 300,000 high-level combat power. However, these troops are actually not difficult to deal with. The biggest obstacle to us is the anti-air firepower and other defensive facilities that they have built to cover the entire Tirisfa area. It can be said that with the Undercity as the center, they have formed a shell with a thickness of nearly 1,000 kilometers. Although our military power, which has the advantage of air force, is not weaker than that of the enemy, defense is always much easier than offense. Moreover, the enemy knows the methods to defend against the Schilling army like the back of their hand. To make a hole in this shell in three days … To be honest, it is very difficult.
However, if we follow Visca's suggestion and detonate the World Circuit from the inside … the energy will definitely be stronger than the explosion of an Eternal-grade fortress ship. At the very least, the Fallen Apostles in the World of Azeroth will be annihilated. If everything goes well, I'm afraid we can even use the special nature of the World Circuit to destroy the headquarters of the Fallen Apostles on the other end … "
"It is a beautiful idea." I ruffled Sandora's blonde hair, and under her gloomy gaze, I gave her another pat on the head. "However, there is one thing: to detonate that thing from the inside, we have to at least find a way to break through that solid line of defense, right? How feasible do you think this plan is? "
