Background / History

Demonic Orcs are a major Beastkin power on Planet Kabudan. They conduct espionage abroad, including monitoring Luojing Transcendent Academy admissions alongside Demonkin agents, and view promising human Transcendants such as Chen Nan as targets or threats 71 88.

Their nations present themselves internationally as defenders of human rights, democracy, freedom, and justice while supporting separatist movements and condemning other states for actions they would take themselves 156 299. Their expansion is driven by the pursuit of resources and the goal of a Transcendent empire led primarily by Demonic Orcs; other races would hold only subordinate status within it 217.

Demonic Orc agents cultivated collaborators within Qingyang Kingdom's Seven Great Families, encouraged the doctrine that Transcendants should stand above nations, and backed traitorous factions against patriotic ones 217 218. They supplied these allies with supernatural mechas and promised further equipment, wealth, and political favor in exchange for eliminating Chen Nan and the Protectorate Faction 237 242 248.

After discovering ancient ruins on Karst Star, the Demonic Orcs obtained access to seven gems and used their powers to improve Transcendent mutations, develop weapons, and pursue planetary domination 253 293 306. Their eventual occupation of Qingyang Kingdom reduced its surviving humans to slave labor while Demonic Orc immigrants occupied its high-class districts and newly built infrastructure 300 303.

Appearance

Demonic Orcs are humanoid Beastkin. They resemble apes but have humanlike body proportions and move, sit, and stand like humans 71.

• Often considerably larger than humans; an Orc's size can become a disadvantage in confined spaces 128.
• Possess naturally formidable physical strength, including enough resilience that killing a strong female Orc by twisting her neck was considered extraordinary 307.
• Both male and female Orcs are present among their Transcendants and civilian elite 179 180 304.
• Orc clothing may feature tribal styling and jewelry associated with power and wildness 305.

Society and Ideology

Demonic Orc society considers itself the most civilized on Planet Kabudan, a reputation tied in part to its wealth and military power rather than its conduct 307. Despite public rhetoric about equality, their society widely discriminates against other races and treats humans of the former Qingyang Kingdom as “lowly slaves” 286 303.

They historically practice cannibalism; the practice has been ritualized through cooking and etiquette rather than abolished 307. Their ruling structure also treats population control as a strategic concern, including the alleged use of engineered disease to reduce elderly populations under the language of “natural immunity” and “survival of the fittest” 312.

Abilities & Technology

Transcendent Combat Ability

Demonic Orc Transcendants include Strength-type, Agility-type, and spellcasting-type combatants.

• Strength-type Orcs rely on overwhelming force and durability; some can regenerate severe wounds almost instantly 180 287.
• An Orc in the prison battle superheated his fists from crimson to near-transparent reddish white before attempting a destructive attack 128.
• Their combat advantage can be undermined by poor coordination and overreliance on brute force, particularly in narrow terrain 128.
• Their Transcendants were described as generally stronger than human Transcendants of comparable level 182.

Karst Star Enhancement

The Demonic Orcs use the seven gems recovered from a Karst Star civilization to alter and enhance Transcendants.

• Space, time, and disintegration gems are chiefly developed as weapons 306.
• Light, shadow, life, and mind gems are combined to create renewed mutations in Strength-type and spellcasting-type Transcendants 306.
• Enhanced spellcasters can fly and wield intangible powers, while enhanced Strength-types possess immense destructive force and regeneration 287.
• Their development of gem-based power remains uneven; the other gems are less developed than space, time, and disintegration applications 306.

Supernatural Mechas

Demonic Orc mechas are a central source of their global military superiority.

• Their mechas link a user's nervous system directly to the machine's movement system, allowing movements to be controlled through neural signals 245.
• Even without effective user reactions, a mecha can automatically attack and defend, though with clumsy movement 250.
• Demonic Orcs sold mechas to Qingyang Kingdom's Seven Great Families, turning military equipment into a means of political control and dependency 242 248.
• Many supplied units contained concealed self-destruct programs intended for a mass-casualty offensive 261 263.
• Their strongest known metallurgy used An Yadi tough steel, though Chen Nan's Primordial Fire-refined version surpassed their processing methods 233.

Gem Weapons

Gem technology can be integrated directly into weapons.

• A blue crystal stone was shown turning an ordinary handgun into a powerful explosive weapon 287.
• Kaba used a golden metal glove set with a purple disintegration gem; combined with his own power, it could shatter targets violently 315.
• Demonic Orc defenses later employed disintegration rays and space-gem countermeasures against Chen Nan's spatial displacement 317.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Supernatural mechas — advanced combat armor sold to allies and used by Demonic Orc forces; some contain remote or programmed self-destruction functions 242 261 263.
• Seven gems — space, time, disintegration, light, shadow, mind, and life artifacts recovered from Karst Star ruins 306.
• Gem-enhanced weapons — firearms and melee equipment amplified through crystal stones or embedded gems 287 315.
• An Yadi tough steel equipment — high-grade Demonic Orc metalwork, though inferior to Chen Nan's refined Star Sword 233.

Relationships

• Demonkin — Frequent operational partners; Demonkin and Orc agents cooperate in espionage and combat, though their methods differ: Orcs favor direct action while Demonkin advocate covert manipulation 71 128 182.
• Seven Great Families — Qingyang Kingdom collaborators supplied with mechas and incentives to destroy the Protectorate Faction 217 242 248.
• Chen Nan — A persistent enemy who exposed their spies, sabotaged their mecha offensive, and later conducted a campaign of assassinations and reprisals under their occupation of Qingyang Kingdom 217 263 307 318.
• Nature Masters — Regarded as a major obstacle to Demonic Orc domination; publicly labeled “armed militants,” “Power Usurpers,” and evil elements 299.
• Humans of Qingyang Kingdom — Conquered population treated as cheap labor and slaves after the kingdom's fall 300 303.

Story Role / Major Arcs

• Espionage and early assassinations: Demonic Orc and Demonkin agents monitor human talent and consider assassinating Chen Nan before he enters Luojing Transcendent Academy 71 88.
• Conflict in Luojing: Individual Orcs fight Chen Nan in the prison corridor and later join a five-person attack at a restaurant; all five attackers are killed 128 180 182.
• Subversion of Qingyang Kingdom: Demonic Orc spies recruit traitors, manipulate the Seven Great Families, and distribute mechas to build a proxy force against Chen Nan 217 218 242.
• Mecha War of Annihilation: They attempt to destroy Qingyang Kingdom through the self-destruction of thousands of supernatural mechas, but Chen Nan's countermeasures weaken the blasts and ruin the plan 261 262 263.
• Karst Star arms race: Videos and extracted intelligence reveal their use of Karst Star's ruins and seven gems to create enhanced Transcendents and new weapons 286 287 293 306.
• Occupation of Qingyang Kingdom: Nine Demonic Orc nations divide and occupy Qingyang Kingdom, exploiting its resources and enslaving its human population 300 303.
• Chen Nan's retaliation: After killing an Orc noblewoman, Chen Nan becomes a wanted criminal; the Demonic Orcs retaliate against humans, while Chen Nan targets Orc civilians, officials, and collaborators to undermine their rule 307 308 309 312.
• Challenge to their hegemony: Their attempts to trap Chen Nan with space-gem defenses fail to restore their image of invincibility, creating panic among their leadership and hope among oppressed populations 317 318.

Trivia

• Demonic Orcs' apparent public support for the Nature Masters is described as propaganda; actual supporters risk elimination by special action organizations 299.
• Their forces sent one thousand Transcendants into Karst Star's underground ruins to overcome its defenses; only five survived, all permanently disabled 306.
• Their attempt to use fear and mass retaliation against Chen Nan instead contributed to public resistance and damaged their prestige 308 316 318.
