Han Niba prepared Great Xia’s first technological exchange with the Kona Civilization while planning an unmanned landing on the Kona Satellite. He ordered ten Pangu Mecha to prepare for the mission in three days and planned to equip them with quantum communication prototypes and an Antimatter Bomb.

• Qian Zhenhua confirmed that Kona’s three technology documents had passed preliminary authentication, and scientists verified that Great Xia’s exchange materials contained no protected information or coordinate leaks.
• Han Niba sent Great Xia’s materials through the Arctic wormhole after the adjutant reported that three wormholes remained guarded and the Antarctic entrances were secured by Commander Lin and the Terra Allied Army.
• The adjutant reported that Great Xia’s second Antimatter Bomb would be ready before eight that night, while ten Pangu Mecha awaited final calibration.
• Han Niba ordered the ten Pangu Mecha to attempt an unmanned landing on the Kona Satellite in three days and told the Academy of Sciences to accelerate quantum communication prototypes for remote control.
• Han Niba planned for the mecha to clear the area around the wormhole, establish an outpost, and take the second Antimatter Bomb in case a Demon God attacked.

Han Niba ordered his staff to plan a landing operation, accepting that the wormhole might have to be destroyed if a Demon God threatened the landing force. In Antarctica, Great Xia’s forces farmed demons emerging from a wormhole while Lin Mo told Terra’s experts he was keeping wormholes to prepare a counteroffensive, leaving them alarmed by the danger.

• Han Niba told his staff to plan the landing and said they should preserve the wormhole if possible but destroy it if necessary.
• Great Xia’s forces suppressed demons emerging from the Antarctic wormhole, killed them, and hauled their corpses away for processing.
• Lin Mo dined beside six Seventh-Order Experts from Terra as they watched Great Xia’s forces contain the wormhole.
• Balin asked Lin Mo why he kept three wormholes open and warned that high-ranking demons could overwhelm the defenses.
• Lin Mo said the first reason was to prepare for a future counteroffensive against the Demon Clan.
• Balin and the other experts doubted the plan, warning Lin Mo that the Demon Clan’s endless numbers and Demon Gods made it too risky.

Lin Mo proposed using the open wormhole as both a future route for counterattacks and a source of Demon Clan corpses, then agreed to let Terra’s races help clear Blue Star under Great Xia’s command. Han Niba reported that technology exchanges with the Kona Civilization were progressing and planned a landing on the Kona Satellite in three days, leaving Lin Mo questioning what would happen to Blue Star.

• Lin Mo explained that Great Xia would keep the wormhole open to observe the Demon Clan, prepare defenses, and eventually strike back, while recycling Demon Clan corpses for resources.
• Warwick asked whether Half-Orc troops could enter Blue Star to hunt scattered Demon Clan members in exchange for selling their corpses to Great Xia.
• Lin Mo welcomed the Half-Orcs and learned that the Holy Human Race’s Purification Brooches could protect them from nuclear radiation.
• The Holy Human Race, Dwarves, and Elves also offered to help, and Lin Mo required all the races to follow Great Xia’s unified command while keeping the corpses they collected.
• Han Niba told Lin Mo that the first stage of the technology exchange with the Kona Civilization was complete and proposed a first landing on the Kona Satellite in three days.
• Lin Mo questioned Han Niba about the planned attack, asking what would happen to Blue Star.

Han Niba and Lin Mo prepared to clear Demon Clan forces and establish a safe portal site, while Great Xia and the Kona Civilization completed their technology exchange. After three days of global strikes reduced the Demon Clan threat, Han Niba received the latest battle report as Kona prepared to begin its landing operation.

• Lin Mo confirmed he could open another portal using recorded spatial coordinates and warned Han Niba to prepare an isolated transition zone.
• Han Niba ordered the engineering team to arrange the portal site, and Great Xia received Kona’s verification of the first-stage technical documents.
• Kona sent the remaining core data for three technologies, which Great Xia verified before exchanging its own remaining documentation.
• Great Xia and Kona completed the three-technology trade, and Kona announced a landing operation on the Kona Satellite in three days.
• Great Xia’s forces conducted global strikes for three days, reducing the Demon Clan population on Blue Star by roughly thirty percent.
• Han Niba received the latest battle report in Celestial Pivot City’s Command Center.

Great Xia prepared to eliminate the remaining Demon Clan creatures on Blue Star while Terra’s races mobilized for the Kona landing operation and competed to profit from trade with Great Xia. The Holy Human Race and dwarves arrived near Blue Star’s equator first, and the elves prepared to follow with their own protective magic items.

• Han Niba ordered his forces to keep the Demon Clan’s movements contained and prevent further large-scale Demon Tides once the Kona landing operation began.
• Terra’s races prepared for war, while their leaders worried that trade with Great Xia was draining their wealth and sought income by selling Demon Clan corpses.
• The Holy Human Race sent one hundred thousand soldiers through a Portal to Blue Star, protected by Purification Brooches and supported by Great Xia’s equipment and supplies.
• One hundred thousand dwarven soldiers arrived with rune-engraved breastplates that protected them from Blue Star’s radiation.
• The elves completed their own magical protective items so they could join the operation without buying equipment from the Holy Human Race.

Lin Mo welcomed 550,000 troops from the Holy Human Race, Dwarves, Elves, and Half-Orcs to Blue Star and established Great Xia’s command, supply, and battlefield rules. He divided the armies among four regions to hunt the Demon Clan while Great Xia used drones to guide and monitor them.

• The Half-Orc warriors arrived last, bringing 300,000 troops, and eagerly ate Great Xia’s self-heating rations.
• Lin Mo welcomed the Terra armies, ordered all military operations to follow Great Xia’s unified command, and warned against unauthorized actions.
• Warwick accepted Great Xia’s command on behalf of the Half-Orc Tribal Alliance, and commanders received restricted Wristwatch Terminals showing maps, missions, and supply points.
• Lin Mo explained that drones would scout for the armies and help direct routes, while Great Xia secretly monitored their movements through the same surveillance network.
• Great Xia split the armies among four directions: the Holy Human Race went east, the Dwarves west, the Elves south, and the Half-Orcs toward the Equator Wasteland and Coastal Ruins.
• The four forces set out toward their assigned objectives with drones, supplies, and guidance from Attack Helicopters.

Great Xia’s unmanned forces began their first landing on Kona Satellite, fighting through the wormhole and securing ground around its exit. With the demon tide still pouring out, the Unmanned Legion and an Antimatter Bomb arrived to support the assault.

• Reports showed Terra armies easing pressure on Great Xia’s ground-clearing operations, freeing resources for the Kona landing.
• Han Niba ordered the unmanned force to seize the area around the wormhole and establish a forward outpost.
• Nine Pangu Mecha cleared a path through the wormhole, killing Demon Clan while drones mapped the passage and established communications.
• The nine Pangu Mecha landed on Kona Satellite and activated Tornado Kill Mode to clear Demon Clan around the wormhole entrance.
• A tenth Pangu Mecha carrying an Antimatter Bomb emerged, followed by Great Xia’s Unmanned Legion.

Cho'Gath learned that Blue Star’s steel constructs had attacked the Demon Clan through a wormhole and set out with six seventh-order Demon Venerables to confront them. Sensing the destructive force that had nearly killed him twice before, he stopped short, realizing he was afraid to advance.

• Cho'Gath focused on recovering his body while waiting for Space-Jumping Beasts so he could invade the Kona Home Planet.
• A seventh-order Demon Venerable reported that Blue Star had sent steel constructs through a wormhole to attack the Demon Clan.
• Cho'Gath summoned Yaxes and five other seventh-order Demon Venerables and flew toward the invasion site.
• Cho'Gath sensed the familiar danger of an Antimatter Bomb near the wormhole and feared his weakened body could not survive another blast.
• As steel figures emerged from the wormhole and attacked nearby Demon Clan members, Cho'Gath stopped and realized he did not dare move forward.

Great Xia’s unmanned forces secured a landing zone on the Kona Satellite while reconnaissance drones located the Demon God and six Demon Venerables watching from a distance. Han Niba ordered the deployment of Heavy Combat Robots and nuclear-armed units as Great Xia expanded its steel position and prepared for any high-ranking demon attack.

• Ten Pangu Mecha established a clearing around the wormhole exit, and Han Niba ordered reconnaissance drones to search for high-ranking demons.
• The drones found the eighth-order Demon God and six seventh-order Demon Venerables ten kilometers away, where they watched but stayed clear of the Pangu Mecha carrying an Antimatter Bomb.
• Han Niba ordered the drones to keep tracking the high-ranking demons and prepare to detonate the Antimatter Bomb if they came within five kilometers.
• Hundreds of fifth-order Heavy Combat Robots passed through the wormhole and formed three defensive lines around the Pangu Mecha.
• The Heavy Combat Robots and Pangu Mecha pushed back the demon hordes, while robots carrying magic-enhanced nuclear warheads took positions to target the seventh-order Demon Venerables.

Great Xia transformed the wormhole exit on Kona Satellite into a fortified Steel Outpost while Cho'Gath unleashed the satellite’s demon tide against it. As enemy forces surged toward the landing zone, Han Niba ordered the outpost into full defense and lifted restrictions on all firepower.

• Great Xia deployed combat vehicles, aircraft, drones, and engineering units to crush the demons and build a defensive position around the wormhole exit.
• Cho'Gath and six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables watched from a distance, but Cho'Gath's mental pressure had no effect on the steel constructs.
• Cho'Gath ordered the demon tide to attack, sending vast land and airborne forces toward the landing zone.
• Alarms at the Tianshu Command Center reported hundreds of thousands of demons and over a million airborne targets converging on the outpost.
• Han Niba ordered the outpost into full defense, lifted restrictions on all firepower units, and declared that the demon tide could not bury them.

Han Niba ordered Great Xia’s forces to unleash a massive rocket and nuclear barrage against the demon tide on Kona Satellite. Cho'Gath and the Seventh-Order Demon Venerables watched their army being wiped out and realized the nuclear strikes were only Great Xia’s conventional firepower.

• Han Niba ordered rocket vehicles to bombard the advancing demon tide, killing demons and a Giant Burrowing Dragon.
• Han Niba authorized tactical nuclear strikes and ordered unmanned equipment to activate electromagnetic protection and avoid the wormhole exit.
• Great Xia launched nuclear-armed drones and missiles, creating mushroom clouds that erased vast sections of the demon tide.
• Cho'Gath and six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables watched nuclear blasts destroy ground and airborne demons, including giant Siege Beasts.
• Cho'Gath held back from attacking, sensing a greater threat at Great Xia’s position and realizing the nuclear barrage was only conventional firepower.

Great Xia’s firepower devastated the Demon Clan’s assault on the Kona Satellite, but Cho'Gath revealed that the attack had only begun. As burrowing earth dragons threatened to break the landing zone from below, Han Niba contacted Lin Mo to activate the contingency plan.

• Great Xia’s artillery, nuclear strikes, drones, and Pangu Mecha units cut down the advancing demon tide, leaving the Demon Clan unable to choose between spreading out and attacking in groups.
• Six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables watched from a distance as Cho'Gath assured them that the show had only just begun.
• Han Niba received reports of heavy Demon Clan losses but remained wary because Cho'Gath and the Demon Venerables had not entered the battle.
• Geological monitoring detected at least thirty burrowing earth dragons tunneling beneath the Kona Frontline Position and overturning defensive vehicles and robots.
• Han Niba contacted Lin Mo, who ordered Great Xia to proceed according to the contingency plan.

Lin Mo crossed the wormhole to the Kona Satellite with two Elf elders, where Great Xia’s Unmanned Legion was fighting the Demon Clan. When demons began tunneling beneath the position, the Earth Elf elder used magic to harden the ground and slow them.

• Lin Mo reassured the Elf elders that they would only secure the position and reminded them that Great Xia would provide a power reactor for the World Tree.
• Lin Mo piloted his Pangu Mecha through the wormhole with the elders and arrived on the Kona Satellite amid a fierce battle between Great Xia’s Unmanned Legion and the Demon Clan.
• An earthquake split the ground near the position as demons began burrowing upward, destabilizing robots and vehicles.
• Lin Mo ordered the elders to act, and the Earth Elf elder cast a spell that hardened the surrounding rock and slowed the underground threat.

The Wood Elder and Earth Elder used elven roots and earth magic to suppress the Burrowing Earth Dragons threatening Great Xia’s outpost on the Kona Satellite. With the underground attack contained, Han Niba ordered seven rune nuclear bombs launched at the demon god and six demon venerables watching from above.

• The Wood Elder scattered magic seeds and used his staff to grow a dense root network that helped hold the Burrowing Earth Dragons underground.
• Lin Mo guarded the battlefield while the Burrowing Earth Dragons’ tunnels collapsed and the roots restrained the creatures, burying many demons below.
• Tianshu Command Center received reports that tremors had dropped by eighty-seven percent and that the outpost’s outer firepower nodes were recovering.
• Han Niba identified the eighth-order demon god and six seventh-order demon venerables still hovering ten kilometers away and ordered a rune nuclear bomb assigned to each.
• Seven missiles launched from Great Xia’s position and streaked toward the demon god and demon venerables.

Cho'Gath’s plan to break through Great Xia’s positions with Burrowing Earth Dragons failed when elven magic sealed the tunnels, and Great Xia launched seven hypersonic missiles at the Demon Clan leaders. Cho'Gath escaped the first missile by using the terrain, while Yaxes fled underground as the other missiles closed in.

• Three Burrowing Earth Dragons emerged and disrupted Great Xia’s positions, but elven magic sealed the underground tunnels and stopped the rest.
• Cho'Gath realized Great Xia had brought elves to the battlefield and angrily silenced Yaxes when it suggested sending more Burrowing Earth Dragons.
• A hypersonic missile targeted Cho'Gath and six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables, and four more missiles appeared behind it.
• Cho'Gath ordered the group to scatter and dodged the first missile by veering around a ridge, where its warhead detonated.
• Yaxes plunged into a Burrowing Earth Dragon tunnel and hurried underground to escape the incoming missiles.

Great Xia’s rune-enhanced nuclear missiles killed two Seventh-Order Demon Venerables, while Cho'Gath shielded a subordinate and survived the blast. Han Niba ordered a second strike against the surviving high-order demons, and five missiles launched as the regrouping Demon Venerables sensed them coming.

• Yaxes and the Bonehorn Demon Venerable escaped underground as nuclear blasts destroyed two Seventh-Order Demon Venerables in the open.
• Cho'Gath intercepted a missile with a hurled boulder, then shielded a Demon Venerable from its explosion and confirmed that two of his six Seventh-Order subordinates had died.
• At Tianshu Command Center, officers reported that the rune nuclear bombs had damaged Cho'Gath and the surviving Demon Venerables but failed to kill them.
• Han Niba ordered a second strike, and five missiles launched toward the remaining high-order targets.
• The Bonehorn Demon Venerable sensed the incoming missiles and warned the others that they were coming again.

Great Xia’s second nuclear salvo failed to kill Cho'Gath and the other Demon Venerables after they escaped underground, so Han Niba reorganized the defenses and pushed the front line outward. Lin Mo’s Holy Light Purification helped the Unmanned Legion drive back the demon tide, but the advance stalled amid the overwhelming mass of demons and corpses, just as something unexpected happened.

• Yaxes warned Cho'Gath that the missiles were coming, and Cho'Gath led the Demon Venerables underground before the second salvo detonated.
• Han Niba learned that the high-ranking targets had survived and ordered the defenses expanded, with Antimatter Bombs kept in the core area and nuclear-armed robots dispersed.
• Lin Mo cast Holy Light Purification over the demon tide, weakening the demons and giving the Unmanned Legion an opening to attack.
• Great Xia pushed the demon tide back while clearing piles of corpses, but the sheer numbers of demons forced the advance into a stalemate.
• Something unexpected happened as Great Xia’s position remained locked in battle with the demon tide.

The space wormhole collapsed, cutting Lin Mo and the Great Xia forces off from Blue Star while the Demon Clan closed in. Lin Mo took command of the Unmanned Legion and ordered a defensive retreat, then considered opening a small Astral Portal to escape with the Elf elders, but he could not leave the Pangu Mecha safely in the hostile environment.

• The space wormhole collapsed and swallowed hundreds of units, severing the link between Kona Satellite and Blue Star.
• Lin Mo pulled the Elf elders away from the collapsing exit and saw nearby robots and vehicles destroyed by spatial turbulence.
• Pangu AI transferred command of the Unmanned Legion to Lin Mo after all Blue Star communications failed.
• Lin Mo halted the expansion, ordered the forces to retreat to the Second Defense Line, conserve supplies, and assume defensive positions.
• Lin Mo decided a small Astral Portal might let him and the Elf elders escape, but he lacked a way to leave the Pangu Mecha safely to create it.

Lin Mo endured Kona Satellite’s toxic atmosphere while the two elf elders protected him as he constructed an Astral Portal to escape. After activating the array, the story left Cho'Gath and four Seventh-Order Demon Venerables sensing events from an underground cavern.

• Lin Mo checked Kona Satellite’s air and learned its toxic gases could kill an ordinary person within an hour.
• Lin Mo ordered the elf elders to guard him while Pangu Mecha entered autonomous control mode and watched for attackers.
• The Wood Elder raised a vine barrier, and the earth-element elder leveled the ground while Lin Mo inscribed the Astral Teleportation Array.
• As the Demon Clan broke through part of the defensive line, Pangu Mecha fired its hand cannons while Lin Mo completed the array despite the poisonous air.
• Lin Mo placed Energy Crystals and Spatial Crystals into the array, inferred that the Demon Clan’s Space Wormhole had lost its energy supply, and purified himself with Holy Light Purification.
• Lin Mo chanted the Astral Teleportation Incantation, illuminating the array, while Cho'Gath and four Seventh-Order Demon Venerables sensed the surface from underground.

Cho'Gath ordered the demons to intensify their assault after the wormhole linking Great Xia to its reinforcements vanished, expecting the isolated defenders to be worn down. As the steel position endured mounting losses, he sensed silver spell formations activating inside it, though he dismissed them as a futile last stand.

• Cho'Gath sensed that the space wormhole had disappeared, and Yaxes urged him to attack the isolated Great Xia forces.
• Cho'Gath refused to risk the Demon Venerables against the enemy's nuclear weapons and ordered the demon tide to intensify its assault instead.
• The demon horde attacked in waves as Great Xia's turrets and plasma cannons fired, while robots and unmanned vehicles were destroyed but kept fighting.
• Cho'Gath taunted the defenders as their ammunition and energy dwindled, then sensed silver formation lines lighting up inside their position.
• Yaxes and the other Demon Venerables asked to watch the defenders be ground down, while Cho'Gath assumed the spell was a futile final effort.

Yaxes recognized Great Xia’s pillar of light as a portal, prompting Cho'Gath to order the Demon Clan’s costly Plasma Bugs awakened to stop it. As Lin Mo expanded the Astral Teleportation Array from the Landing Zone, hundreds of orbital beasts accelerated toward the surface.

• Yaxes identified the silver-white pillar as a portal and warned Cho'Gath that it could bring in Great Xia’s forces.
• Cho'Gath ordered the Plasma Bugs awakened despite their cost and their intended use against space fleets.
• Hundreds of Plasma Bugs stirred in orbit around Kona Satellite and began flying toward the pillar of light.
• Lin Mo continued chanting beside the Astral Teleportation Array as its opening grew and the steel army became visible beyond it.

Watcher concluded that Great Xia’s antimatter weapons were likely keeping the Demon God from joining the battle, raising its estimate of Kona’s survival and prioritizing antimatter development. As a plasma bug swarm gathered above the landing zone, Lin Mo expanded a portal to Blue Star, where Fendona appeared.

• Watcher analyzed the Demon God’s refusal to fight and concluded that Great Xia’s antimatter weapons had made it cautious.
• Watcher raised Kona’s survival prospects and began developing antimatter weapons, while trying to find local substitutes for Great Xia’s containment metal.
• Watcher detected hundreds of plasma bugs assembling in orbit above the Great Xia landing zone and warned the Unmanned Legion.
• The Unmanned Legion continued holding back the demon tide as its stocks of wide-area weapons ran low.
• Lin Mo expanded the Astral Teleportation Array’s opening toward Blue Star, and Fendona appeared on the other side.

After the Space Wormhole collapsed and cut off contact with Kona Satellite, Han Niba and the Holy Human Race mages rushed to restore a portal, fearing Lin Mo had been lost. They found Lin Mo alive and casting a spell, but a warning about a massive plasma bug swarm gathering above his position left the danger unresolved.

• The Space Wormhole collapsed, severing contact with Kona Satellite and leaving Lin Mo's fate unknown.
• Han Niba ordered an investigation and summoned Kael to open an Astral Portal, while Kael initially could not locate Kona without spatial coordinates.
• Han Niba sent Lin Mo's coordinates, and Kael began preparing a magic array at the collapsed wormhole site.
• A small portal opened, revealing Lin Mo alive and casting an incantation beside two Elf elders; the elders reported that Great Xia's steel legion was holding under heavy pressure.
• The Pangu AI announced a Kona Civilization broadcast warning that a large plasma bug swarm was gathering above Lin Mo's position.

Lin Mo steadied the portal spell long enough for Great Xia to restore communications with the Kona Satellite front line, where command learned that Plasma Bugs threatened to attack from orbit. Han Niba ordered a rush to deploy Sky Eye, missiles, and interceptors while Kael and Lin Mo continued expanding their portals to send reinforcements through.

• Lin Mo regained his focus and stabilized the portal after nearly losing the incantation when he heard about the Plasma Bugs.
• Soldiers installed a Quantum Communication Relay Device, restoring the connection to Kona Satellite and synchronizing the missing frontline data.
• Han Niba learned that Plasma Bugs were maneuvering into orbit to bombard Great Xia's positions and ordered Sky Eye, missile deployment, and continuous tracking of the enemy units.
• Great Xia routed missile vehicles and other unmanned equipment through Tianxiong Underground City toward the Abandoned Underground City.
• Kael began opening a larger portal while Lin Mo's portal expanded to two meters, and soldiers prepared a transfer chamber as Fendona watched Lin Mo suffer from the poison.

Lin Mo stabilized the Portal so Great Xia could move weapons and surveillance equipment to the Kona Satellite, where orbital Plasma Bugs were detected preparing to attack. Great Xia launched two Hypersonic Interceptor Missiles, but the Plasma Bugs fired plasma toward the Landing Zone first, and the chapter ended as the missiles closed in on their targets.

• Lin Mo expanded the Portal to five meters and kept it stable while Great Xia transported weapons and equipment through.
• Great Xia deployed surveillance systems at the Kona position and detected more than a hundred approaching Plasma Bugs, including two aiming at the Landing Zone.
• Han Niba ordered two Hypersonic Interceptor Missiles to launch against the orbital targets.
• The two Plasma Bugs fired enormous masses of plasma toward the Landing Zone before the missiles could reach them.
• The missiles entered their terminal penetration phase as the plasma fell toward the surface, and the chapter ended before the interception outcome was revealed.
