Hey Hey, Beat the Demon to Its Knees

Iron Ash City was built on a magnificent, active volcano.

On the side closer to the ocean, hot, red-hot lava flows out.

Compared to the two largest Hive City on the planet Scintilla,

Iron Ash City is young, but it is also a magnificent industrial metropolis.

Many people believe that Iron Ash City has great potential and will become the most magnificent city in Scintilla in the future.

The towering spire stands atop the volcano, while its lowest point extends deep into the crust of the planet Scintilla.

The entire city is dotted with various large foundries, powered by geothermal energy from the volcano's core.

As a result, the air quality in the city is poor, and it is often shrouded in thick smoke.

In this city, the most valuable thing is fresh air.

For the people living here, various air filtration devices are essential.

The most extravagant way to flaunt wealth is to have the air imported from the Garden World delivered directly into one's luxurious home.

After the Battle of Sibellus, the Imperial Army dispersed to fight around the world, clearing out rebels in various regions, including Iron Ash City.

Four hundred thousand heavily armed Automata soldiers, along with two companies of Astartes, are conducting a clearing operation on the city.

The traitors would occasionally organize a few counterattacks, but each time they were swiftly and decisively crushed by the Imperial Army.

With Qin Yun's permission, Caidin quickly organized a team to Brotherhood of the Dark Corner.

It didn't take long to investigate and discover the Brotherhood of the Dark Corner's infiltration and development in Iron Ash City.

After being severely tortured, several rebel leaders confessed to having Aegis the cult and provided its exact coordinates.

Several Valkyrie quickly took off from the makeshift airfield and flew through the war zone filled with the roar of gunfire.

Many buildings are still burning, black as asphalt.

Ragged flags hung everywhere, and the walls were spray-painted with symbols of decadence.

Many people are still alive in the city, hiding inside these buildings.

The Valkyrie swept through the chaotic city and finally arrived at a magnificent foundry.

"We are close to our target," the driver said into the communicator.

"Alright, let's give it our all." Brother Zhong looked at his teammates. "Whether we can win the MVP depends on this."

"For the sake of MVP, we need to let them know that the Witcher is YYDS."

"Yes, we need to let them know that the profession of Witcher is no less prestigious."

"..."

White Wolf of the Demon Hunter Warband, along with players like "Don't Eat Beef Noodles," all nodded in agreement.

"The foundry's data packet has been sent. Please be ready to receive it."

Brother Zhong shared the holographic map of the foundry in the database with the members of the Chapter.

The Demon Hunter Warband is not large in number.

Because Brother Zhong only recruits those Blank is already scarce.

This has resulted in the Demon Hunter Warband remaining small.

However, the overall calculation of the war rankings does not only look at the number of points, but also calculates the average score.

If they can drive away a Greater Daemon, their score will be very high, leaving the other Chapter behind.

The Valkyrie slowly descended, and the roar of the engine gradually softened.

The hatch opened, and Brother Zhong and the other players jumped out to scout the surrounding environment.

To ensure the mission could be completed smoothly, Inquisitor Caidin also assigned several teams to assist.

They wore Exoskeleton Armor and carried Gauss Rifle.

When the Valkyrie landed in the open space, they ran out in formation.

Quickly occupy advantageous terrain and cover, and prepare for battle.

Caidin and Uxthor followed behind the armed squad, both fully armed.

Inquisitor are never synonymous with weakness; they possess the best enhancements and equipment.

Those Inquisitor fought on the front lines year-round were even stronger than Astartes.

"The Warp is churning." Caidin, who possessed psionic talent, said in a somewhat grave tone, "We need to speed things up."

Players like Brother Zhong, Blank, felt nothing.

The team began entering the factory.

This place is a huge mausoleum, with its tall, empty roof disappearing into the shadows.

Many pieces of machinery bear traces of the past, and craters are still faintly visible, clearly indicating that a conflict had occurred here.

The enormous Eight-Pointed Star was smeared on the wall with the blood of the massacre victims, a blasphemous act.

Human bodies were suspended by chains from high Smallpox or bound to blasphemous Eight-Pointed Star frames.

Their Scalp or skin were peeled off, their eyes gouged out, and sharp nails were driven through their bodies in various places.

Crimson blood dripped from their wounds onto the ground.

Most of those who were tortured died, and the few who remained were barely clinging to life, awaiting the arrival of Ynnead.

"What a bunch of beasts."

The officer in charge of the armed squad cursed under his breath.

"Every Cultists deserves to die, and there should be no mercy for these people."

Brother Zhong nodded, expressing his deep agreement with this statement.

The enemy's voices came from the depths of the dark factory.

"Prepare for battle." Brother Zhong switched his armor to combat mode.

The others also picked up their weapons.

Several Cultists with Eight-Pointed Star etched on their foreheads emerged from the darkness.

They were completely unaware that punishment was about to befall them, the traitors.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Several Gauss bullets sliced through the air and struck the target instantly, turning the body into dust.

Human Gauss Weapon differ somewhat from those of the Necron.

The Necron's Gauss Weapon fires beams.

Human-made Gauss Weapon, on the other hand, fire bullets that cover a force field.

The reason for this difference is the different materials science of humans and the Necron.

As for their power, the two are roughly equal.

The kill effect is the same for both.

Once it hits, it will break the atomic bonds of the target, turning the target into a pile of dust.

"Accelerate the advance and try to break through before they can react."

The team started running and advanced at top speed.

The Cultists along the way were all shot dead.

During this time, several Chaos Sorcerer attempted to use psionic powers to thwart the Imperium forces.

However, it was countered by the Blank player, became a dud, and was eventually shot by the Gauss Flayer and turned to dust.

The team eventually stormed into what used to be the assembly hall, where over a thousand enemies were located.

The soldiers' heavy weapons began to unleash their power, and the dense infusion instantly filled the entire hall, with screams and cries of agony rising and falling.

Brother Zhong and his men charged ahead, and the lasers fired by the enemy in retaliation struck them, but were deflected by the shield force field projected by their armor.

The massacre proceeded quickly; within ten minutes, the hall was filled with the stench of burning flesh and blood.

The dead lay sprawled on the ground, while those who were still alive screamed in agony.

On the altar, a man in a black robe looked at the gruesome dead believers, but instead of panic or fear, he revealed a chilling smile.

"You're too late."

Caidin pointed his gun at him and shouted, "Immediately, put your hands behind your head and kneel down!"

"Feel the terror brought by my lord..." The Black-Robed Man hadn't finished speaking.

With a bang, the bullet pierced the Black-Robed Man's chest, causing him to stagger backward and eventually collapse to the ground, barely alive.

Caidin stepped onto the altar and found a strong man lying on the altar platform, surrounded by many blasphemous runes and patterns.

"Here it comes, here it comes!" The Black-Robed Man on the ground shouted maniacally while spitting blood, "Feel the fear!"

The air temperature dropped suddenly, and the free moisture condensed into frost.

Space was stretched out in an instant, extending to an infinite distance.

A burning hell appeared before Caidin and his companions.

A strange laugh echoed from the depths of hell.

The Lord of Dark Flame, one of the Seven Great Daemons of the Calixis Sector, has descended.

Brother Zhong and the Blank did not see the burning black hell; they only saw a demon burning with black flames appear after space distorted and enter the body of the mortal on the altar.

Demons cannot remain in the Realspace for long; this is an indisputable rule.

After years of trial and error, the Cultists of the Brotherhood of the Dark Corner devised a plan: to find a vessel for the enemy, thus allowing the Lord of Dark Flame to move freely.

The man, sacrificed as a sacrifice, quickly became demonized. Black flame patterns appeared on his body, demonic horns grew on his forehead, and his eyes became hollow, burning with black flames.

"My lord."

The Cultists, barely clinging to life, wore expressions of ecstatic joy.

They succeeded, summoning the great Lord of Dark Flame into the Realspace.

Now, it's time for these reckless servants of the Corpse Emperor to pay the price.

The foundry began to shake, cracks appeared in the steel, and eerie whispers echoed in people's ears, devouring reason and emotion.

Caidin's face turned deathly pale, and the psionic energy within him was nearly out of control in the face of the demon, causing him to scream in agony.

The players behind him looked excited.

"Charge, brothers!" Brother Zhong shouted, raising his arms. "The Goddess of MVP is calling us with open legs."

White Wolf and the Blank, including those Don't Eat Beef noodles, charged forward.

The demon's magic is useless against them; only swords and flesh can cause them harm.

Balphomer, now in a physical body, was overwhelmed with excitement; it had been far too long since he had been able to enter the Realspace.

Completely unaware of Brother Zhong and his group's presence, he remained oblivious until the Blank launched their attack.

"Child of Calamity".

Balphomer waved his hand, sending the first Blank player who charged at him flying.

But the second player, Don't Eat Beef noodles, rushed up, grabbed Balphomer, and knocked him off the altar.

Balphomer slammed his fist on the helmet of the man Don't Eat Beef noodles, but the man held on tightly, preventing him from escaping.

Another player rushed over and stabbed the guy who Don't Eat Beef with a sword, skewering him and the demon together.

"For the MVP." The man Don't Eat Beef the shattered helmet smiled.

Balphomer: "..."

Holy crap, is it really that harsh?

You've been exposed, and you're still laughing?

The other players did the same, rushing over and turning Balphomer and Don't Eat Beef Noodles into hedgehogs.

But the demon's vitality is astonishing; even under the influence of the Blank, it continues to recover at a visible rate.

He abruptly shook off the already dead "Don't Eat Beef Noodles" and tried to stand up.

As soon as he stood up, Brother Zhong kicked him in the knee joint.

With a thud, he knelt directly on the ground.

The other players swarmed in again, punching, kicking, stabbing, and slashing.

Upon seeing this, Caidin shouted, "You control it! I will use a ritual to bind the demon within that mortal's body and imprison it."

The Inquisition has always conducted research on the Seven Great Daemons.

As the High Inquisitor, Caidin also possesses powerful psychic abilities, as well as numerous skills and methods for fighting Warp Daemon.

With Maxo's help, Caidin inscribed spells and prayers on the fallen Balphomer.

"By the Daemon-Enslavement Pact, I will bind you to this body forever."

Balphomer screamed, but the power of the ritual was so strong that it held it firmly in place, forcibly imprisoning it within the mortal's body.

Unable to return to the Warp or escape, it will remain imprisoned indefinitely unless the prison is broken one day.

Caidin cast various binding spells to suppress Balphomer's power.

After everything settled down, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"No!" The Black-Robed Man cried out in despair upon seeing this.

They had been planning for so many years and made so many preparations.

But this is how it ended.

"Humanity is invincible." Caidin walked up to the Black-Robed Man, raised his gun, and pointed it at him. "Go to hell, you beast."

Gunshots rang out.

The Black-Robed Man had his head blown off.

The Chapter that were originally competing for the rankings felt like their world had collapsed when they saw the leaderboard.

The Demon Hunter Warband surged from the bottom of the pack to first place, taking a commanding lead over second-place Eagle Soars Nine Heavens.

Blood Pigeon: "Is the leaderboard broken?"

Damo: "I told you guys not to rush in so recklessly, look what you've done, you've ruined it."

Old Bird: "It's not bad. The Demon Hunter Warband is in the lead now. I don't know what Brother Zhong and his gang did, but they captured a Daemonhost."

Warmaster: "Daemonhost?"

Ten-Timer: "I'm so angry and cold. You're really going to assign us this kind of task?"

Brother Zhong: "It's just an MVP. If you like it, work harder and you can take it."

Blood Pigeon: "That damned show-off, execute him with a bomb! He must be executed with a bomb!"

"..."

The Daemonhost has been imprisoned by the Inquisition, and all forces associated with the Dark Corner Brothers will be purged.

The Scintilla Battle is drawing to a close, with the Demon Hunter Warband temporarily in the lead.

Qin Yun took the opportunity to release version 2.1, which improved some of the problems encountered before.

[Update Notice:]

Hello everyone, Xi Ling is back again. Thanks to our efforts, Warhammer Online has ushered in a brand new upgrade. Here are some of the updates.

1. The Warfare Score model has been optimized to ensure greater fairness and impartiality.

2. Optimized loot distribution mechanism: Loot is no longer automatically yours just because you find it first. In the same battle, the player with the highest Warfare Score will have priority in choosing loot. Distribution within Chapter and among individual players in a team will remain unchanged for now.

3: After a technical upgrade, the game time flow rate has been adjusted to a tentative ratio of 1:2, meaning one day in the real world is equivalent to two days in the game.

4. The quest system has been upgraded. Guide will issue Faith Points quests, giving players more ways to obtain Faith Points besides killing enemies.

+++ Thought for the Day: Life is a Prison, Death is a Release+++

The announcement was posted on the official website, along with video footage of the Scintilla Battle and the Daemonhost.

As soon as it was posted, it was forwarded to other video websites and forums, causing a surge in the number of forum users.
