Since the activation code redemption was re-anchored, the number of players in the World of Disorder has begun to increase at a steady rate.

After all, the game is indeed a bit expensive at the current price. Although feedback suggests that " World of Disorder " is well worth the price, according to official announcements, the price will definitely drop in the future.

Therefore, many people have changed from eagerly waiting to become "wait-and-see" players, refreshing the official lottery interface every day to checking the real-time prices on trading websites, hoping to wait until the price of activation codes drops to their expected level before making a purchase.

As for the official website's lottery for qualification, not many people are paying attention to it anymore. After all, the probability of winning is ridiculously low, like winning the lottery. It's okay as a bonus, but if you have too high expectations, you'll be extremely disappointed.

The beginner's guide on the official forum has also undergone another major overhaul. The general plan for new players is to first level up to level one in the castle, and then go to White Wax Town to start the next stage of the game.

As the number of players increases, the guide Ed appears less and less, only refreshing a few times a day at a few fixed locations.

Instead, there are various types of Aberration plants, which, despite their abstract appearance, are actually friendly interactive units.

All the players know is that these plants grew out of the ground after a certain announcement. Although they have a bizarre appearance, the existence of these Aberration plants has made many things much more convenient.

Ed was currently testing these special plants.

In a secluded, dense forest, Ed slowly walked towards the strangely shaped tree in front of him.

" Little Green, record the data."

"OK."

From above, this tree looks almost identical to a normal tree, but in reality, its surface contains a huge hollow large enough to accommodate an entire adult.

Ed stepped into the tree hole, and the spiraling vines and roots quickly sealed the entrance. Some slippery resin dripped onto Ed, forming an oil-like film.

Immediately afterwards, the tree visibly twitched, making a sound like swallowing, and the entire trunk thinned out considerably in that instant. A few seconds later, the tree hole reopened, revealing that it was completely empty.

Suddenly, another large tree several hundred meters away began to twist, and a spindle-shaped object covered with a thin layer of resin appeared in the previously empty tree cavity.

Several vines stretched out from around him, helping Ed wipe away the resin and other dirt from his body, making him much cleaner than when he stepped into the tree hole. He stepped out of the tree hole and onto the ground.

"Great, it's a success!"

Ed longed to give someone a high five to express his excitement, but apart from a few wild beasts trembling with fear, there were no intelligent creatures around.

He gently tapped the tree trunk in his eye socket instead of giving a high five, and Little Green quickly responded:

"Don't worry, I'm still very reliable."

"What is the current maximum distance for this type of teleportation?"

"About one kilometer. Any further and it will be affected by the Demonic Tide and become uncontrollable."

"Rubbish."

"You change your tune really fast."

"There's a full twenty kilometers between the castle and White Wax Town. Do you think your teleportation method is even useful?"

"Sigh, we're still too weak right now. If only we could absorb more..."

"Don't mention your Territory Secret Pact. For now, it seems we can only rely on waiting for it to become a reality. But... let me think if there are any other options."

Ed fell into thought. Since breaking through level 10, he felt that his body and abilities had undergone significant changes.

Although Seraphina said he was still in the Low Tier tier, Ed felt that he was completely different now than when he first came into this world.

After Little Green fully digested and absorbed the Baron's Territory Secret Pact, the enhancements he gained were not only in his manipulation of gravity within the territory, but also in the ability to freely extend his vines and roots.

Using this ability, and referring to some of Yiden's experimental conclusions over the past few decades and the operations performed on the White Wax Town Church, combined with his own experience with the vines when he first met Seraphina, and a little bit of ingenuity, Ed constructed this [ Root Network ] currently located near the castle and the White Wax Town Church.

The Aberration plants that can be used to purchase items, the Aberration plants that can provide players with resurrection, and the Aberration plant that can teleport short distances—all of these are the results of Ed's recent "scientific research." On the surface, they are all independent plants, but in reality, they are all connected to the same Root Network.

Now, Ed plans to take it a step further and use the Root Network for mass transfer on a larger scale, such as... living people.

However, as Little Green said, the existence of the Demonic Tide makes teleportation over a kilometer not so easy, and there is a high possibility of getting lost in the Root Network or discovering that one's body is missing something after arriving at the destination.

" Little Green, you said that if the overall teleportation distance is too long, there might be problems, right?"

That's what I mean.

"What if we teleport separately?"

"Ah?"

"For example, we can break it down into pieces first, like arms and legs, then transport it over and put it back together. After all, dead things Alienation more slowly."

"This... this..."

"Anyway, they're just trying to be helpful. If we split the teleportation mechanism, won't it allow them to travel further?"

"So this thing is only for players?"

"That's the tentative plan."

What should we do with those clothes?

"The clothes won't Aberration in a short time, so they can be passed around normally."

The sapling in his mind fell silent. Just as Ed was basking in the glory of his brilliant idea, Little Green suddenly spoke in his mind:

"Since you're willing to split the teleportation process, then we might as well not teleport the matter at all."

"You mean?"

"Why not just transmit the information? Transmit their bodily structure information to the location of the designated plant, and then directly use the stored flesh and blood for Alienation..."

Ed's eyes lit up immediately, and he said excitedly:

Let me think about it.

Little Green's meaning is simple: since using the pipes in the Root Network to transmit limbs and organs is easily interfered with by the Demonic Tide, it's better to directly transmit all the information that makes up this body.

For most normal players, their bodies are actually 3D printed by Ed using the flesh and blood of Aberration monsters.

If he could bestow similar abilities upon certain specific plants within his Root Network, then he should be able to do something similar.

Even if some players replace limbs with those of other creatures or use certain rare appendages, Ed can replicate them as long as he has collected the genes of that creature.

In other words, players will lose their current body when they choose to teleport, and a new body will be generated at the teleportation destination. As for things other than the physical body, money exists in the form of virtual currency, needless to say, items should be able to be obtained from the nearest location, and clothing... well, if all else fails, just get a new set.

Thinking of this, he gently tapped the small tree in his eye socket again:

"You're a genius!"

"We are truly geniuses."
