Chapter Summaries

Lin Mo and the other Seventh-Order Experts regrouped after the Antimatter Bomb blast, then learned the Demon God had survived and fled. The crimson dragon confirmed its aura was severely weakened, leaving the group with a chance to pursue or confront it.

• Lin Mo waited as Chen Jianguo guided the scattered Seventh-Order Experts back to the group.
• Warwick rejoined them injured and warned Lin Mo not to release their domains while the Demon God might still be nearby.
• The remaining Seventh-Order Experts arrived, and Lin Mo confirmed all fifteen had survived the blast.
• The crimson dragon revealed that it sensed the Demon God moving away after the explosion.
• The crimson dragon said the Demon God's aura was extremely weak and unstable, and killing intent stirred among the group.

Lin Mo and the Seventh-Order Experts pursued the wounded Demon God across the Icefield, following its blood trail. The trail vanished after the Demon God’s wounds healed, leaving them unsure how long it would take to regain its full strength.

• Lin Mo urged the Seventh-Order Experts to pursue the Demon God before it could recover, and the group boarded a Metal Flying Boat with the three Dragons flying alongside.
• Lin Mo told Chen Jianguo that the Antimatter Bomb had gravely wounded the Demon God and asked the Command Center to redirect reconnaissance northwest.
• A Holy Human Race expert detected a trace of evil, and Ede found a pool of fresh black blood that Warwick identified as the Demon God’s.
• The group followed scattered drops of blood across the Icefield, but Fendona and Ede concluded the Demon God was healing as its trail grew fainter.
• After another dozen kilometers, the blood trail disappeared, and Warwick and Ede reported that the Demon God was gone.

Lin Mo located Cho'Gath inside the Demon Clan lair beneath Eolseu No. 1 Underground City and planned to attack it with bombs underground. After Lin Mo left to retrieve more bombs, the Terra Allied Army prepared defenses to prevent the Demon God and its forces from escaping.

• Lin Mo reasoned that the wounded Cho'Gath would hide in a nearby Demon Clan lair, so he sent the Seventh Orders out to search with their domains.
• A Seventh Order Elf detected a huge Demon Clan force about thirteen hundred meters underground, and the group identified the lair as the captured Eolseu No. 1 Underground City.
• Lin Mo proposed sending nuclear and Antimatter Bombs into the underground city, then left through a portal to retrieve more bombs after Kael awoke.
• The Terra Allied Army prepared magic arrays and Rune Metal Pillars while guards and Dragons watched for a counterattack or escape.
• Deep underground, Cho'Gath sensed danger and its aura surged violently.

Cho'Gath survived an Antimatter Bomb blast but was left severely wounded, so he retreated to the Eolseu Demon Lair to recover. He told his assembled Demon Venerables that humans had ambushed him, while Yaxes silently recalled warning him not to underestimate the technological civilization.

• The Antimatter Bomb destroyed much of Cho'Gath's body, and he escaped the blast with his shield nearly depleted.
• Cho'Gath flew to Eolseu No. 1 Underground City, hiding his trail as his body began to regenerate.
• Cho'Gath reached the Eolseu Demon Lair and summoned the six seventh-order Demon Venerables stationed across Antarctica.
• The Demon Venerables were shocked by Cho'Gath's injuries, and he claimed that humans had trapped him with the weapon that killed Ao Lingsi.
• Yaxes remembered warning Cho'Gath about the humans, then outwardly assured him that he would defeat them once he recovered.

Cho'Gath began recovering in Eolseu No. 1 Underground City, but sensed Terra's Seventh-Order experts following him and ordered the demons to attack. Lin Mo returned to Tianyong Underground City and urgently requested an Antimatter Bomb and three nuclear bombs to finish Cho'Gath while he was weak.

• Cho'Gath ordered the six remaining Demon Venerables to guard him while he consumed rare minerals, including a Gaia Core, to recover.
• Yaxes considered stealing a Gaia Core to become a Demon God, but suppressed the thought when he noticed Cho'Gath watching him.
• Cho'Gath sensed Terra's Seventh-Order experts approaching and ordered the demons to crush them, sending a vast demon tide toward the surface.
• Lin Mo returned to Tianyong Underground City and told Chen Jianguo that the blast had crippled Cho'Gath, who was hiding in Eolseu No. 1 Underground City.
• Lin Mo asked Chen Jianguo to prepare an Antimatter Bomb and three one-megaton nuclear bombs, and Chen Jianguo contacted Han Niba at Tianshu Underground City.
• Han Niba frowned after hearing Lin Mo's request.

Lin Mo secured Han Niba’s approval to use an Antimatter Bomb and three nuclear bombs against the wounded Cho'Gath, while Han Niba warned him not to risk his life if the attack could not succeed. After learning how Great Xia was accommodating millions of people through Underground City expansions, lunar settlement, and migration to Terra, Lin Mo was told that the Demon Clan had launched a large-scale counterattack against the Terra Allied Army.

• Lin Mo argued that striking Cho'Gath while it recovered in Eolseu Underground City was worth the risk, and Chen Jianguo supported his assessment.
• Han Niba authorized one Antimatter Bomb and three megaton-class nuclear bombs to be sent to Tianyong Underground City, but urged Lin Mo not to force the attack if he could not kill Cho'Gath.
• Chen Jianguo told Lin Mo that Great Xia was easing population pressure by expanding Underground Cities, preparing to send five million people to the moon, and lifting Terra’s population quota.
• An Information Officer reported that the Demon Clan had begun a large-scale counterattack where the Terra Allied Army was stationed.

After the Demon Clan surrounded the weakened Terra Allied Army in Antarctica, Great Xia redirected its forces to support them. Missile, naval, and orbital strikes were prepared, with orders to keep fire clear of friendly forces.

• Lin Mo and Chen Jianguo saw the Terra Allied Army surrounded by Demon Clan forces and ordered urgent support.
• Chen Jianguo directed surface missiles, the Third Unmanned Legion, the navy, orbital strike satellites, and Kuafu to prioritize the Antarctic battlefield.
• Zhou Yue ordered missile units to bombard the Demon Clan's outer perimeter while enforcing a no-fire buffer around the Terra Allied Army.
• Shen Qingshan ordered naval missiles, carrier aircraft, drones, and gun batteries to strike the demon tide without crossing the friendly boundary.
• Luo Weidong redirected Kuafu's weapons and prepared its main gun, tungsten-rod strikes, and laser batteries against Demon Clan concentrations.

Luo Weidong ordered the Titan and orbital satellites to strike the Demon Clan forces around Eolseu No. 1 Underground City while the Terra Allied Army struggled to hold its defensive line. As the defenders faced being overwhelmed, Yadis spotted incoming fire and announced that Great Xia's support had arrived.

• Luo Weidong confirmed the strike zones and ordered the Titan's main gun, tungsten rods, and laser batteries to fire toward Antarctica as two orbital strike satellites prepared their payloads.
• Warwick, Balin, and the other defenders fought off the Demon Tide while Holy Human and Elf mages prepared a Magic Array behind them.
• Demons surrounded the position from underground fissures, and the Terra Allied Army fought to protect the Magic Circle until Lin Mo could return with a bomb for the Demon God.
• Warwick and the four other seventh-order Half-Orcs joined the outer defense while Balin held the tunnel entrance and the Dwarven Rune Metal Pillars blocked Burrowing Earth Dragons below.
• Yadis spotted streaks of fire approaching through the storm and shouted that Great Xia's support had arrived.

Great Xia’s missile strikes, orbital weapons, and unmanned forces tore into the Demon Tide and relieved the Terra Allied Army, while Cho'Gath unleashed six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables to stall the defenders. As Yadis carried Kael and the others away from the central battle, Lin Mo’s familiar voice announced that he had arrived.

• Great Xia’s missiles, naval guns, orbital weapons, and unmanned forces devastated the Demon Tide’s outer ranks, breaking its encirclement and easing pressure on the Terra Allied Army.
• Cho'Gath refused to retreat through a Space Wormhole and ordered six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables to kill the defenders.
• The six Demon Venerables emerged near the tunnel, forcing the exhausted Seventh-Order allies to abandon their Magic Circle and fight them.
• Yadis evacuated Kael, Fendona, Thorin, Grom, and the others from the central battlefield as the Seventh-Order combatants clashed.
• A familiar voice sounded in everyone’s earpieces and said, “I’m late.”

Lin Mo arrived at the battlefield in the newly completed Pangu Mark II, a greatly improved mecha built with Great Xia technology and dwarven runes. As the seventh-order fighters pinned down the Demon Venerables, Lin Mo began clearing nearby demons and prepared to open a portal to drop a bomb into the Underground City.

• Lin Mo arrived in the Pangu Mark II, surprising Kael, Fendona, Thorin, and the others, who had believed the original Pangu was destroyed.
• Lin Mo explained that the Pangu Mark II had improved speed, impact resistance, and weapons, and deployed two Eagle Eye drones to monitor the battlefield.
• Lin Mo told the seventh-order fighters to keep the Demon Venerables occupied while he prepared to drop a bomb into the Underground City.
• The Demon Clan sent flying demons and gargoyles toward Lin Mo and Yadis, while Magic-Eye Beasts gathered corrosive beams.
• Lin Mo fired the Pangu's plasma cannons and homing missiles, destroying approaching demons and several Magic-Eye Beasts.
• Lin Mo asked the others to cover him as he prepared to open the portal.

Lin Mo opened a Portal into Eolseu No. 1 Underground City and sent an Antimatter Bomb into its core, forcing the Demon Clan and Great Xia’s fighters to flee. The bomb detonated deep underground, annihilating the lair and the Space Wormhole as the shock wave struck the surrounding strata.

• Thorin, Kael, Fendona, and Yadis protected Lin Mo and Pangu II while Lin Mo prepared to open a Portal.
• Lin Mo opened a Portal to the underground core and ordered Pangu to throw an Antimatter Bomb through it on a three-second timer.
• Cho'Gath sensed the bomb’s threat and layered its domain into shields, but the Portal closed before it could act.
• Lin Mo warned everyone to retreat, and Great Xia’s fighters and the Demon Venerables fled the battlefield.
• The Antimatter Bomb detonated deep beneath Eolseu No. 1 Underground City, erasing the core, the Demon Clan Lair, and the Space Wormhole before the shock wave hit.

A massive explosion destroyed Eolseu Underground City, but Lin Mo suspected the Demon God had survived and sent Pangu II high above the crater to drop a one-megaton Nuclear Bomb. The bomb reached the ruins and detonated, leaving the Demon God’s fate uncertain.

• The explosion tore through the ice sheet, devastated the demon tide and Great Xia’s forces, and hurled the Seventh-Order Experts and Demon Venerables away.
• Balin laughed that the demons had fallen for his trap, while Yaxes fled toward a Space Wormhole.
• Lin Mo ordered Pangu II to climb and prepare a Nuclear Bomb because he could not open a Portal into the chaotic Underground City.
• At fifteen thousand meters, Lin Mo released the one-megaton Nuclear Bomb and directed Pangu AI to guide it into Eolseu Underground City’s core.
• Pangu AI guided the bomb through the crater’s turbulence, and it detonated deep within the ruins.

After the explosions devastated Eolseu Underground City, Lin Mo and the Terra Allied Army searched the crater for the eighth-order Demon God but found no sign of it. As their search of the ruins came up empty, Lin Mo suddenly asked whether anyone had found the Demon Clan’s space wormhole.

• Lin Mo and the fifteen seventh-order experts regrouped above the crater, but their domains could not detect the Demon God.
• Lin Mo insisted they descend and confirm whether the Demon God had been killed, and a water elf elder cooled the crater so they could enter.
• Lin Mo, the Terra group, and the seventh-order experts searched the destroyed underground city and scanned the debris for traces of the Demon God.
• After finding nothing, Lin Mo remembered the Demon Clan’s space wormhole and asked whether anyone had found it.

After the antimatter blast, Lin Mo and the allied experts found the Demon Clan’s wormhole gone and concluded there was a two-thirds chance the Demon God had escaped. Lin Mo urged them to recover and cut off the Demon Clan’s supply lines on Blue Star, then returned with the others to Tianyong Underground City.

• Lin Mo asked about the Demon Clan’s wormhole, and Ede confirmed there were no spatial fluctuations left in the crater.
• Lin Mo explained that the wormhole’s disappearance meant the Demon God had a one-in-three chance of dying in the blast and a two-in-three chance of escaping or closing the passage.
• Balin cursed that the Demon God was difficult to kill, while Lin Mo privately regretted losing the chance to send nuclear bombs through the wormhole.
• Lin Mo encouraged the exhausted experts and proposed dismantling every space wormhole on Blue Star before hunting down the remaining Demon Venerables.
• Lin Mo opened a portal to Tianyong Underground City, where soldiers welcomed him as construction crews rebuilt the surface beside the fallen World Tree.

After Lin Mo returned from fighting the Eighth-Order Demon God, he learned that Great Xia had built a detector capable of locating Space Wormholes and discussed the global battle with Han Niba. Han proposed keeping three monitored Wormholes so the Demon Clan could be controlled as a source of resources, with Antimatter Bombs deterring the Demon God.

• Lin Mo told Chen Jianguo and Han Niba that the Eighth-Order Demon God’s fate could not be confirmed after the battle.
• Lin Mo asked Han Niba for the locations of known Space Wormholes so the Terra Allied Army could destroy them, and Han reported that Academician Qian Zhenhua’s detector could locate Wormholes worldwide.
• Lin Mo replaced his damaged terminal and ordered the guard to replace the Terra Allied Army’s Translator Earpieces.
• Han Niba explained that unmanned equipment and Combat Robots were helping Great Xia hold the Demon Clan back.
• Han Niba proposed leaving three Wormholes under surveillance and placing Antimatter Bombs at two entrances to deter the Demon God while using weaker Demon Clan forces as resources.

Han Niba explained that Great Xia’s growing industrial capacity would let it produce Antimatter Bombs faster, and proposed tracing the space wormholes to learn where they led before considering a counterattack. The chapter ended with Great Xia preparing to fire Micro-Detectors through the wormholes to gather intelligence while keeping the option to destroy any new passage before it stabilized.

• Han Niba told Lin Mo that Great Xia’s Large Nuclear Fusion Reactors had resolved the energy crisis and would soon enable rapid Antimatter Bomb production.
• Han Niba said Great Xia wanted to trace the space wormholes to locate the Demon Clan’s home planet, but stressed that this did not mean launching an immediate counterattack.
• Han Niba warned Lin Mo and Chen Jianguo that attacking through a wormhole could provoke the Demon Clan’s leadership into concentrating its forces on Blue Star.
• Han Niba explained that Great Xia could detect newly forming wormholes and destroy them with Nuclear Bombs or Antimatter Bombs before they became stable.
• Han Niba told Lin Mo that Great Xia had prepared Micro-Detectors to fire through the wormholes and collect intelligence about the other side.

Lin Mo agreed to send the Terra Allied Army through the Demon Clan’s wormholes with probes to gather intelligence before destroying them. On a distant satellite, Cho'Gath escaped an antimatter blast that collapsed his wormhole, but he returned gravely wounded and vowed to take revenge after recovering.

• Han Niba explained that probes sent through the wormholes could reveal the Demon Clan’s deployments and transit network, and Lin Mo agreed to help the Terra Allied Army deploy them before destroying the passages.
• Han Niba arranged for the probing equipment to be sent to Tianyong Underground City, while Lin Mo realized Great Xia had been preparing for a counteroffensive for some time.
• An Antimatter Bomb detonated near a wormhole’s receiving end, collapsing the passage and tearing apart the Demon Clan Army gathered around it.
• Cho'Gath escaped the collapsing wormhole but lost his limbs and suffered severe injuries as he fled the blast.
• Cho'Gath roared in rage, and the demons around him realized their Demon God had been defeated and prostrated themselves in fear.
• Cho'Gath decided to recover his strength before returning to Blue Star to devour its inhabitants and erase his humiliation.

Lin Mo took the Specialized Space Reconnaissance Launch Platform and set out with fifteen seventh-order experts to destroy the Demon Clan’s space wormholes, leaving three in Antarctica untouched. They began by fighting through the demon remnants on the way to the first target in Eagle Country’s Freedom Underground City.

• Lin Mo received the electromagnetic cannon and its Micro-Detector projectiles, then stored the weapon and ammunition in his Spatial Ring.
• Lin Mo checked on the new World Tree sapling, entered Pangu II, and met the Terra Allied Army experts after they finished eating.
• Lin Mo told Kael, Fendona, Thorin, Grom, and the others to stay behind while fifteen seventh-order experts accompanied him.
• Lin Mo instructed Pangu to preserve the three Antarctic wormholes and plot a route to destroy the rest, beginning at Freedom Underground City.
• Lin Mo and the experts attacked demons as they crossed the battlefield, and Lin Mo told them to keep moving toward the wormholes instead of getting caught up in combat.

Lin Mo and the seventh-order experts cleared the Demon Clan from Freedom Underground City and found four space wormholes. He fired a reconnaissance shell into one to learn what lay beyond, but an unknown life-form destroyed it almost immediately.

• Lin Mo brought twelve seventh-order experts into Freedom Underground City through a portal while three dragons guarded the surface.
• A Holy Human Race mage, Balin, Warwick, and the elf elders helped crush the Demon Clan resistance in the ruins.
• Ede sensed four strong spatial fluctuations deep underground, and the group found a wormhole still sending Demon Clan creatures through.
• Lin Mo ordered the group to hold back the creatures while a modified reconnaissance shell entered the wormhole.
• Pangu AI reported that an unknown life-form had destroyed the reconnaissance device.

Cho'Gath gathered his surviving Demon Venerables on the Kona satellite and demanded a strategy for defeating Blue Star after his forces suffered heavy losses. Yaxes proposed attacking Terra, but another Demon Venerable pointed out that the allied civilizations could reinforce each other, leaving Yaxes to beg Cho'Gath to hear its full explanation.

• Cho'Gath's army poured through seventy wormholes on the Kona satellite toward Blue Star while he fed and regenerated from his wounds.
• Six Seventh-Order Demon Venerables, including Yaxes, answered Cho'Gath's summons, and he demanded a plan to deal with Blue Star.
• Yaxes suggested opening another front against Terra because Blue Star's explosives and Terra's experts constrained the Demon Clan.
• A bony-horned Demon Venerable called Yaxes an idiot and explained that the allied civilizations could teleport between Blue Star and Terra.
• Yaxes prostrated itself and promised to become Cho'Gath's food if he remained dissatisfied after hearing its explanation.
