Power Progression

Level, potential rating, class, and hero status develop separately. Hellscream’s initial demon-blood evolution changes his class without increasing his documented Elite ★★★ potential; subsequent advancements break his original bloodline limits, grant hero status, and eventually raise him to a Tier Four Overlord ★ Doom Demon Lord 8 46 49 68 163 463 484.

Appearance

Hellscream begins as a green-skinned, mohawked orc whose physique, markings, and equipment change through successive evolutions 8 9 16 26 46.

  • Height and build: Grew beyond 1.7 meters at Common ★★★, beyond 1.8 meters as an Orc Fighter, and to approximately 1.9 meters at Elite ★★. His initially swelling muscles became denser and more compact 9 16 20.
  • Eyes: Described as showing a calm yellow light while surrounded by enemies 16.
  • Elite ★★★ markings: Blue battle markings appeared across his back, with a wolf-paw-shaped totem between his brows 26.
  • Hell Vanguard form: Became more slender while retaining powerful limbs. Acquired rings of dark-blue patterns across his upper body and a pair of black bat wings 46.
  • Battle appearance: After bloodline fusion, eerie green flames coat his axe during combat 49.
  • Hell General form: Reached two meters in height with a two-meter wingspan, steel-like muscles, and heat rising from his body. His mohawk disappeared, leaving him bald 68.
  • Further wing evolution: His Boss ★★ advancement added blue patterns and flickering sparks to his wing membranes. At Boss ★★★, his wingspan expanded to approximately four or five meters, with visible hellfire sparks accompanying each beat 105 107.
  • Half-demon manifestation: During the temple battle, his muscles swelled, his eyes turned blood-red, black flames covered him, and two pairs of curved black horns emerged from his forehead 121.
  • Doomsday Judicator class appearance: Following his Leader ★ evolution, he stood at least approximately 2.3 meters tall, with a broader frame, darker blue markings, enormous folded wings, and an aura of destruction. His eyes nevertheless retained wisdom and composure 223.
  • Doomsday Judicator transformation: During the Golden Stone Giant battle, his height rose from approximately 2.5 meters to five meters, his wingspan reached ten meters, and his enlarged axe burned with black flames 232.
  • Restrained combat aura: After improving his Power Control, he could fight with flames limited to his wing tips and feet instead of continuously engulfing his body 274.
  • Orc Titan manifestation: When preparing to fight a Grandmaster Rank dragon, he activated Orc Titan Domain and grew into an axe-wielding giant more than one hundred meters tall 525.

Personality

Hellscream is fiercely loyal to Shen Xing and treats disrespect toward him as a serious offense. His early behavior is earnest but literal-minded: when asked to demonstrate his strength, he lifts Shen Xing’s wheelchair before realizing that his lord wanted a different demonstration. As he develops, his speech becomes more fluent and his manner more composed 9 17 20.

Unlike the more openly competitive Gorehowl, Hellscream usually ignores challenges and concentrates on his duties. He teaches other orcs to control their anger rather than surrender to it, using careful stone-carving work to cultivate patience. Shen Xing recognizes both his calmness in battle and his emerging leadership ability 25 26 29.

He remains capable of overconfidence. After estimating a ninety-percent chance of conquering Plague Village, he accepts Shen Xing’s warning about inadequate preparation and reflects on his own impulsiveness. That reflection leads him to improve his combat techniques. His willingness to endure the painful demon-blood fusion further demonstrates his determination to protect his lord and lead the orcs to victory 29 30 46.

Shen Xing’s teachings become a recurring source of resolve and insight. Hellscream invokes the importance of an improving heart when awakening Heart of the Strong, and rejects the idea that his low-ranking demon bloodline must determine his strength when confronting a Hell War Demon. Even during agonizing evolution, greater pain can make his gaze clearer and his behavior calmer rather than provoking blind rage 64 68 135.

His caution becomes an established part of his command style. After discovering a temple containing a stronger presence, he withdraws despite believing he has a seventy-percent chance of victory. He later restrains Gorehowl’s eagerness to charge the Skinners’ camp and recommends weakening the enemy before committing to an assault 109 215.

Hellscream also places unusually severe expectations on himself. He calls himself weak after destroying the mutant temple guardian and blames himself for casualties during the lava-pool expedition. Failure to find a Blackwater River crossing likewise prompts him to request punishment and intensify his training. Shen Xing repeatedly counters this self-reproach with reassurance and lessons about continued growth 121 135 210.

His protectiveness extends to his comrades. During the Rain God challenge, he intercepts an attack meant for Gorehowl and entrusts Shen Xing’s safety to him before being teleported out. His earnestness can still leave him bewildered by others’ behavior, as when Qin Lang clings to his leg and begs for protection 176 276.

Abilities & Skills

Physical Strength and Agility

  • At level 2, uprooted and threw a boulder estimated to weigh 200–300 kilograms; after reaching Common ★★★, split it with his axe 9.
  • Crushed a Lost One’s head with one hand and cleaved another through the chest 10.
  • Reached nearly 50 meters per second while using Wind Walk at Common ★★★; his burst speed exceeded 100 meters per second after becoming an Orc Fighter 10 16.
  • Benefits from additional agility granted by Life-Sacrifice Evolution. Before his Elite ★★★ advancement, he already had 20 more agility than comparable elites from two earlier applications 26.
  • Can throw his battleaxe with lethal force, giving him an attack option beyond melee range 17 31.
  • After becoming a Boss ★ Hell General, his agility exceeded 300; his Tier Two breakthrough raised it to nearly 600 69 94.
  • Helped Xiao Hei restrain a Dragonblood worm with a chain, then forcibly dragged the enormous creature out of the ground 228.
  • During the Golden Stone Giant battle, orc casualties and associated combat bonuses raised his attributes to strength 4,579, spirit 4,139, agility 12,624, and constitution 5,172 before his further transformation 232.
  • His Tier Three breakthrough brought his unboosted agility to approximately 7,200; by his level-30 Overlord ★ advancement, it approached 50,000 267 484.
  • As a Tier Four Master Rank fighter, delivered hundreds of axe blows against the Moon Laurel Tree in a little over ten seconds while continuing to accelerate 476.

  • Attack effect: Guarantees a critical hit on the next attack.
  • Duration: 12 seconds.
  • Cooldown: 75 seconds.
  • Used to intercept and critically wound the Dark Vulture’s wing 19.

Bladestorm

Hellscream spins with his weapon, continuously cutting nearby enemies 16.

  • Radius: 2 meters.
  • Can move while spinning.
  • Higher agility increases rotation speed and duration.
  • Cooldown: 120 seconds when first acquired 16.
  • Cut down more than a dozen Lost Ones during a territory defense 17.
  • Later developed a stronger combination technique called Flame Tornado Storm, also rendered Blade Tornado Storm in combat. At the temple, his spinning attack incinerated zealots within ten meters; he identifies its creation as his second major breakthrough in controlling and combining his power 120 265.
  • During a later monster tide, repeatedly used Bladestorm without a cooldown and cleared the attackers entering the eastern district. The supplied account does not explain the mechanism behind this later cooldown-free use 438.

Earth-Splitting Slam

A two-handed axe strike that inflicts heavy area damage and knocks enemies back 20.

  • Damage and affected area increase with strength.
  • Cooldown: 45 seconds.
  • Combined with Hope’s Plume to attack from the air; the initial test left a shallow crater more than ten meters across 20 21.
  • An aerial strike at Plague Village created a crater twenty to thirty meters across and killed at least a dozen Plague Followers 31.
  • After bloodline fusion, the strike also scattered hellfire and knocked down two Fallen Overseers 49.

Refined Wind Walk–Slam Technique

Hellscream independently developed a new technique after reflecting on Shen Xing’s lesson about caution 30.

  • Alters Wind Walk’s force application to conceal his presence and approach without an obvious disturbance.
  • Combines wind enhancement with Earth-Splitting Slam.
  • Concentrates the impact at a single point before releasing its force.
  • Demonstrated the technique by striking a boulder that appeared intact briefly before exploding from within 30.

Execute

An all-out single-target attack with a conditional instant-kill effect 26.

  • Deals massive damage.
  • Against an injured target, has a chance to ignore defense and execute it instantly.
  • Cooldown: 15 seconds.
  • No numerical execution chance is provided 26.

Spirit of the Horde

The first troop talent awakened in Shen Xing’s territory 26.

  • Increases Hellscream’s learning speed by 30%.
  • Grants +10 charm.
  • While he is present, all orcs receive increased morale and a temporary +1 level.
  • The temporary level increase cannot exceed the recipient’s rank-level cap 26.

Heart of the Strong

A growth-type talent awakened through an epiphany while fighting the Naga priestess 64.

  • Initially increases all four of Hellscream’s attributes by 1% for each orc on the battlefield.
  • Initially caps at a 30% increase.
  • Its growth-type designation indicates that the initial effect is not necessarily its final limit.
  • Its awakening lets him reverse the battle against the berserk Boss Rank priestess and inspires the surrounding orcs 64 65.

Demon Bloodline Skills

His first two demon-blood skills were acquired through successful fusion with Lesser Demon Essence Blood. Further potential advancements unlocked additional bloodline abilities 46 68 107 108.

Skill Effects Duration / Cooldown
Flame of Hell — Passive All attacks apply Hell Burning, dealing continuous damage and reducing armor by 3% per stack. Stacks up to five times. 12-second duration 46
Fel Fire Body Burning — Active Burns one target with hellfire and prevents it from using skills. Ordinary skills cannot dispel the effect, though it can be resisted. 8-second effect; 10-minute cooldown 46
Half-Demon Transformation Activates demonic power, increasing all attributes by 40% and adding hellfire burn and splash effects to attacks. Carries a chance of losing reason and becoming unable to distinguish allies from enemies. Later replaced by Avatar: Doomsday Judicator. 60 seconds; 30-minute cooldown 68 223
Demon Wings — Passive Partially activates demonic power to allow short-distance flight and accelerated dives. Passive 108
Wind of Calamity Wingbeats generate two hellfire hurricanes that cross in an X-shaped path, inflicting flame damage and potentially knocking enemies airborne. 45-second cooldown 108

His transformation against the mutant temple guardian greatly exceeds Shen Xing’s expectations for Half-Demon Transformation’s listed 40% attribute increase. Shen Xing suspects that another, unidentified power contributes to this exceptional display; the scene does not provide a confirmed replacement multiplier for the skill 121 162.

Higher-ranking hell creatures can suppress his Dretch-derived bloodline, as demonstrated by the Hell War Demon’s aura weakening his flames and flight. Nevertheless, he overcomes that pressure, severs the demon’s arm, and kills it in the lava pool 134 135.

Mirror Image Techniques

Mirror Image Clone is acquired at Boss ★, while Mirror Image Killing Formation follows at Boss ★★★ 68 107.

Technique Effects / Limitations
Mirror Image Clone Creates combat clones inheriting 30% of his attributes. Each 100 agility permits one clone. Clones last 35 seconds, with an 80-second cooldown when the skill is first acquired. His initial maximum is three; after reaching Tier Two, it rises to five 68 94.
Mirror Image Killing Formation An advanced mirror-image skill whose strength can be increased indirectly through greater agility and clone numbers. Six clones later immobilize an Overlord Rank Raging Water Dragon with the formation 107 108 287.

Hellscream also uses clones tactically to avoid attacks. During his spar with Shen Xing, a clone receives a destructive dragon-claw strike while the original reappears at a distance 320.

Blinking Jump Slash

An instantaneous movement attack acquired at Boss ★★ 105.

  • Blinks up to agility × 0.3 meters, appears near an enemy, and delivers a powerful jumping slash.
  • Gains one additional blink for every 500 agility.
  • Cooldown: 65 seconds.
  • Used to appear above and beside the temple guardian before combining the approach with Charged Heavy Strike 105 120.

Hero Skills and Functions

His advancement through the Proof of Hero grants all attributes +30%, greater bonuses from future levels and advancements, and access to functions including territory construction, resource-point occupation, and newcomer recruitment 163.

  • Orc War Soul: A hero-exclusive skill that strengthens his role as an orc commander. Its effects improve during his Doomsday Judicator advancement 163 222.
  • Desperate Brawl: Enables orc deaths in battle to strengthen the surviving orcs. Its effects also improve during his Doomsday Judicator advancement 163 222 232.
  • Battlefield scaling: During the Golden Stone Giant battle, the deaths of six hundred recruited orcs provide the surviving orcs with a 600% attribute bonus 232 233.
  • Later applications: The Silver Moon Knight battle uses a 500% Desperate Brawl bonus after five hundred orcs are sacrificed. In a later fight against an Overlord Rank dragon, activating Desperate Brawl raises Hellscream’s attributes sevenfold 383 521.
  • Racial restriction: Shen Xing identifies his orc-focused support effects as a limitation compared with auras that affect every allied troop type 163.
  • Preparation cost: Achieving his largest combat multipliers requires substantial preparation, including recruiting and sacrificing large numbers of orcs and drawing upon other orcs’ strength 163 498.

Avatar: Doomsday Judicator

A transformation acquired with his Leader ★ Doomsday Judicator advancement, replacing Half-Demon Transformation 222 223.

  • Doubles his size and grants an additional 50% to all four attributes.
  • Unlocks Judgment Battle Axe, Grip of Condemnation, and Doomsday Descends.
  • Duration: 300 seconds.
  • Cooldown: 3 hours.
  • A fatal attack during the transformation dispels the form rather than immediately killing him, effectively providing an additional layer of survival 223.
Transformation Skill Effects
Judgment Battle Axe Doubles the weapon’s size and coats it in black doomsday fire. Attacks damage a cone in front of him, gain 30% armor penetration, and deal an additional 40% damage to targets above 70% health 223.
Grip of Condemnation A giant black demonic claw drags a target underground and deals damage equal to 245% of attack power. If the target dies, enemies within 100 meters each receive the full excess damage. Cooldown: 35 seconds 223.
Doomsday Descends A transformation-exclusive destructive ability. Its later use fractures and shakes the ground over thousands of meters during the Silver Moon Knight battle; the supplied passages do not provide its complete numerical description 223 383.

Power Control and Self-Created Combat Skills

Hellscream develops increasingly precise methods of applying his strength rather than relying only on raw attributes. He describes his first major barrier as learning to release power without leakage after reaching Transcendent, and his second as learning to direct and combine internal power when creating Flame Tornado Storm. He subsequently concentrates his power into his weapon to develop the finishing move that kills the Golden Stone Giant 234 265.

Ability Effects / Limitations
Power Control: Condense into One Third-level Power Control attained during his Tier Three breakthrough. Concentrates his entire body’s power into one attack without leakage, greatly increasing combat-skill power and armor penetration by 100%–500%. Greater concentration consumes more strength and leaves a brief depleted state 267.
Split the Sky His exclusive, self-created combat skill. Releases a compressed slash against enemies up to 3,000 meters away, with a 100% magic-breaking effect that ignores shields, barriers, magic barriers, and similar defenses. Charging increases range and damage; maximum charge deals ten times the damage but causes prolonged weakness. Cooldown: 1 hour 267.
Power Control: Mountain Collapse Fourth-level Power Control mastered after passing an S-rank Tier Four trial. Concentrated power detonates on contact, penetrating armor to damage the target directly. Produces 40%–100% armor penetration and 30%–80% splash damage to nearby enemies 463.

Further demonstrations and training include:

  • Creating Split the Sky during his breakthrough through repeated axe swings and a strike against lightning drawn from the misty sky 267.
  • Evading and parrying Shen Xing’s psychic and Ruin Black Dragon attacks despite the latter’s superior transformed strength and defense 319 320.
  • Challenging the Sword Star Corridor at fifty-eight times difficulty after the other fighters decline his invitations to spar 320.
  • Improving his control through the Moon Laurel Tree’s unusual rebounding power; he estimates that a short chopping session provides the equivalent of a week of arduous cultivation 476.
  • Using fourth-level Power Control to defeat Master Rank opponents with equivalent attributes but only second- or third-level control 498.

Orc Titan Domain

An Overlord Domain awakened when Hellscream becomes a Doom Demon Lord. His sufficiently strong foundation allows it to begin directly at the second level, alongside partial activation of his ancient orc bloodline 484.

  • Raises allied orcs’ potential and reduces enemy units’ potential 484.
  • Can draw upon other orcs’ attributes to increase his own, with Shen Xing describing a maximum fivefold attribute increase from this effect 484.
  • Combines with Desperate Brawl, Doomsday Judicator transformation, allied domains, auras, and support skills to produce combat power capable of crossing tiers 484.
  • Its later activation against a Grandmaster Rank dragon makes him grow more than one hundred meters tall 525.

Doom Demon Lord Skills

Acquired at Overlord ★ alongside Orc Titan Domain 484.

Skill Effects / Limitations
Summon Doomguard Summons creatures to assist in battle. Their arrival also produces a wide-area attack and strong crowd control; the supplied passage does not give the complete numerical parameters 484.
Realm-Severing Slash After charging, delivers a Realm-Severing Strike against enemies within 1,000 meters ahead. Ignores all armor, removes all buffs from targets hit, and prevents them from receiving buff skills for 120 seconds. Cooldown: 8 minutes 484.

Leadership and Field Awareness

  • Trains other orcs in obedience, emotional control, and patience; their formation discipline visibly improves afterward 25 27.
  • Detects unusual scents, including the fragrance of a Brain Fruit 18.
  • Senses the unpleasant aura surrounding Plague Village before the expedition enters it 19.
  • Proposes drawing enemies out in batches rather than immediately attacking their full force 31.
  • Records special areas while leading westward exploration and withdraws from the temple when the risk exceeds what he considers acceptable 105 109.
  • Reports that the Holy Chalice of Rain can carry Blackwater River water and accepts command of a western exploration team with Da Hou 188.
  • Coordinates the Skinners operation with Gorehowl and Leina, using a spyglass to enable attacks through the fog and recommending repeated disruption before a direct assault 215.
  • Reports greater wisdom after becoming a hero, with previously troubling questions becoming easier to resolve 214.

  • Crude Stone Axe — White: His original weapon, transformed during his Common ★★★ advancement 9.
  • Orc Iron Axe — Green: Acquired at Common ★★★; used to split the large boulder at the village entrance 9.

    • Blackwater Waves: Consecutive attacks against the same enemy increase the next attack’s power by 10%, stacking up to 50% 67.
  • Lantern and monocular telescope: Supplied by Shen Xing for his westward exploration. He later gives Gorehowl a spyglass to observe and target the Skinners through the fog 105 215.

  • Ancestor’s Fang: Supplied by Shen Xing as the material for his Tier Three breakthrough 265 267.
  • Mad Demon Battle Axe — Orange: Presented to him by Shen Xing after its properties are evaluated. Its later battle contribution includes a 40% attack bonus; Shen Xing’s assessment also notes that the new axe permits two transformations per day rather than one 328 335 383.
  • Beast Strength Mushroom enhancement: Provides an additional 20% strength bonus in the Silver Moon Knight battle’s stacked enhancements 383.
  • Golden Ancient Tree blessing: Supplies a 22% attribute bonus during the same battle and remains one of the enhancements supporting his later combat performance 383 521.

History

Naming and Early Expeditions

Hellscream first appears as the mohawked orc greeting Shen Xing after the initial battle. Shen Xing subsequently identifies him as the cleverest of his ten orc infantrymen and gives him his name. After strengthening him, Shen Xing takes him and four other orcs into the mist, where they defeat Lost Ones and discover an extinguished Black Crystal Tower 8 9 10.

He also helps kill the black wolf guarding a black iron mine, attacking in coordination with Shen Xing’s Hand of the Void. Back at the territory, he and Gorehowl help repel overnight raids and turn over the collected spoils and crafted bone arrows 12 15.

Territory Defense and the Dark Vulture

After becoming an Orc Fighter, Hellscream takes the lead against three-star Lost Ones during another raid. He later stops a hostile worg from threatening Shen Xing and accompanies the next resource expedition 16 17 18.

Near Plague Village, he critically injures a Dark Vulture and prevents its escape while Shen Xing interrupts it with Hand of the Void. Hellscream finishes the creature, and its advancement soul becomes the resource for his promotion to Elite ★★ 19 20.

Summoning into Reality

Shen Xing summons Hellscream into a shopping mall to confront an Abomination alongside Xu Jiayi’s Angel-Hunting Queen and Qin Lang’s Master of Shadows. Hellscream handles the frontal assault but becomes trapped by the monster’s Flesh Tentacles. When the assassin distracts it, he breaks free and joins the others in suppressing the creature 23 24.

Afterward, Hellscream initially remembers the encounter as a dream. Shen Xing explains that he had actually been summoned into reality 25.

Assault on Plague Village

Following his Elite ★★★ advancement, Hellscream requests permission to attack Plague Village. Shen Xing refuses his initial proposal because a ninety-percent success estimate leaves too much risk. Hellscream reflects overnight and develops his refined Wind Walk–Earth-Splitting Slam technique 26 29 30.

During the eventual assault, he competes with Gorehowl for kills under Shen Xing’s promise to promote the better-performing general first. He opens with an aerial strike, kills a Plague Priest before it can unleash Plague Hurricane, and later instantly kills a level-eight lesser demon caught in Gorehowl’s net. He also retrieves supplies from a hidden basement, including the Large Beast Trap Blueprint 31 32 34 37.

Bloodline Evolution and the Lumberyard

With further potential advancement blocked by his level, Hellscream concentrates on absorbing Soul Stones to reach level 9. Shen Xing meanwhile investigates whether Lesser Demon Essence Blood can overcome the limitations of his orc bloodline 28 37 45.

After being informed of the risks, Hellscream chooses fusion and endures the transformation into a Hell Vanguard. He subsequently leads the attack on a lumberyard’s Fallen Overseers while Xia Wanyin’s Light Spirit archers provide ranged support. His hellfire-enhanced attacks help eliminate the guards, allowing Shen Xing to approach the enslaved laborers 46 49.

Blackwater Battle and the First Boss Advancement

At level 8, Hellscream fights the level-nine Naga priestess despite being below her in both level and potential. His extra agility initially keeps the battle competitive, but her berserk state wounds him repeatedly. Remembering Shen Xing’s teaching that a warrior must never stop improving, he awakens Heart of the Strong and reverses the fight, raising the orcs’ morale in the process 64 65.

After further Soul Stone absorption, he reaches level 9 and the Tier One limit. Shen Xing uses Life-Sacrifice Evolution to raise him beyond the ordinary orc bloodline’s ceiling. Hellscream withstands three minutes of painful reconstruction and becomes the territory’s first Boss unit, changing from Hell Vanguard to Hell General and acquiring Mirror Image Clone and Half-Demon Transformation 68.

Tier Two and Western Exploration

Following his Tier Two breakthrough, Hellscream leads Shen Xing’s party through the vine-choked forest to Gideon’s territory. When two werewolves attack rather than submit, he kills them; the remaining werewolves accept Shen Xing’s rule after Leina’s intervention. Shen Xing then orders the abandoned territory’s buildings dismantled for materials 94.

Shen Xing subsequently raises him to Boss ★★ and assigns him to explore westward, providing a lantern and monocular telescope. Another evolution raises him to Boss ★★★ and grants new mirror-image and wing-based abilities 105 107 108.

His team discovers a temple occupied by gray-robed fanatics and kills more than a dozen enemies. When a stronger presence stirs within the temple, Hellscream withdraws despite estimating a seventy-percent chance of winning. Shen Xing approves of this application of his earlier lessons in caution 109.

Temple of Nature

During the eventual temple assault, Hellscream burns through binding vines and enemy zealots with Wind of Calamity, then fights his way into the main hall. He combines Blinking Jump Slash, Charged Heavy Strike, and mirror images against the temple guardian 120.

The guardian mutates into a mass of roots, drains several clones, and binds and weakens Hellscream. Fried Chicken rescues him, but their combined attacks struggle against the creature’s regeneration. Frustrated by his perceived weakness, Hellscream enters an exceptionally powerful half-demon state, embraces the guardian with his arms and wings, and incinerates it in a pillar of black fire 121.

Exhausted afterward, he apologizes for failing to handle the enemy more easily. Shen Xing reassures him that continued growth requires an apprentice’s mindset, restoring his determination. A subsequent Nature Offering heals his injuries, replenishes his exhausted strength, and increases all four attributes 121 123.

Lava-Pool Expedition and Hell War Demon

Hellscream and Gorehowl lead the orcs upstream toward a greatsword in a lava pool, but relentless hell creatures and a powerful aura trap the force in an extended battle. With only orcs present, the army lacks adequate ranged support. Shen Xing arrives with Fried Chicken and orders the wounded troops to retreat 134.

A Hell War Demon emerges and attacks during their withdrawal. Although its superior demon bloodline suppresses Hellscream’s aura, he shields Shen Xing, evades a direct weapon collision, and cuts off the demon’s arm. Rejecting the notion that lowly Dretch blood makes him inferior, he seizes the demon by the neck and plunges into the lava with it, killing the Boss ★★ creature in a massive eruption 134 135.

Back at the territory, he blames himself for the expedition’s casualties. Shen Xing interrupts his self-condemnation and orders rest and treatment, promising a return engagement. During the later confrontation at the Hell Portal, Hellscream is one of only three fighters, alongside Xiao Hei and Black Arrow, who remain unfrozen by the emerging enemy’s pressure 135 156.

Hero Advancement and the Rain God Challenge

After the troops return from an expedition, Shen Xing selects Hellscream to receive the Proof of Hero, judging him the territory’s strongest troop member and a particularly worthwhile investment. Hellscream crushes the seal and undergoes a sacred transformation while hellfire and his enormous bat wings surround him 162.

He becomes Hero Hellscream, gains Orc War Soul and Desperate Brawl, and acquires expanded territory functions. His advancement greatly increases the potential effectiveness of the territory’s orc forces 163.

During the Rain God challenge, Hellscream shields Gorehowl from water chains and falls into the lake after asking him to protect Shen Xing. He is teleported out rather than killed, but Gorehowl believes him dead and launches a powerful retaliatory assault against the Rain God clones 176.

River Exploration and the Skinners

Hellscream confirms that the Holy Chalice of Rain can hold Blackwater River water and accepts an assignment to explore westward with Da Hou. A later attempt to find a crossing both upstream and downstream fails, prompting an apologetic report and renewed Soul Stone training at the large stone near the village entrance 188 210.

When a Skinners’ stronghold is located, he volunteers to lead its destruction despite the apparent presence of a Tier Three enemy. He explains that becoming a hero has made him wiser and helped him resolve earlier difficulties 214.

At the camp, Hellscream meets Gorehowl and Leina and stops an immediate charge. He gives Gorehowl a spyglass so he can use Declaration of Strife through the fog, then advises a second disruption after the gray-robed leader suppresses the first riot. The renewed infighting further weakens the camp before a full assault 215.

Doomsday Judicator and the Dragon Tomb

After dewdrops raise him to level 19, Shen Xing evolves Hellscream into a Leader ★ Doomsday Judicator. The advancement improves his hero skills and replaces Half-Demon Transformation with Avatar: Doomsday Judicator 222 223.

During a battle with a Dragonblood worm, he joins Xiao Hei in restraining it with a chain and ultimately pulls the enormous creature out of the ground 228.

Against the Golden Stone Giant, Shen Xing’s prepared force of six hundred expendable orcs supplies escalating Desperate Brawl bonuses. Hellscream’s agility rises above twelve thousand before he activates his Doomsday Judicator form and launches a sustained assault on the Overlord Rank enemy 232 233.

He eventually concentrates the surrounding flames into his weapon rather than meeting the giant’s attack with dispersed power. He later identifies this concentration technique as the basis of the finishing move that killed the stone giant 234 265.

Tier Three and Combat Mastery

When Hellscream reports a new barrier in his Power Control, Shen Xing recommends trying again after advancing and gives him Ancestor’s Fang. During the breakthrough, Hellscream repeatedly swings his axe, draws thunder from the sky, and strikes against the descending lightning 265 267.

He successfully reaches Tier Three, masters Condense into One, and creates Split the Sky. Shen Xing asks him to adapt to the new strength before joining the secret-realm expedition, while Fordring seeks instruction on how he created the skill 267.

In the Lotus Pond challenge, Shen Xing refuses to withdraw when Overlord Rank Raging Water Dragons appear. Hellscream faces one while Onyxia and Leina fight the others, using six clones to immobilize his opponent with Mirror Image Killing Formation 287.

Later, Shen Xing tests his own Tier Three strength against Hellscream. The orc evades psychic attacks, reaches the wheelchair, and stops his axe less than five centimeters from Shen Xing’s head. Even after Shen Xing adopts Ruin Black Dragon form, Hellscream uses clones, footwork, and precise parries to resist his attacks until Shen Xing combines close-range pressure with psychic projectiles to seize his shoulder 319 320.

Hellscream continues training when the other fighters decline to spar with him, challenging the Sword Star Corridor at fifty-eight times difficulty. He also develops a close friendship with Fordring through reciprocal instruction in self-created skills and force application 320 335.

Silver Moon Knight Captain

Hellscream initially holds off the Silver Moon Knight Captain until Fordring, Xiao Xiao, and the Steel-Spined Ironback Bear join him. Their sustained attack batters the captain, but a burst of Silver Moon power repels them, and the captain summons more than a thousand skeletal Silver Moon Knights. Fordring’s Silver Divine Shield withstands the first volley at great cost 382.

Shen Xing then summons five hundred orcs as expendable attackers. Their deaths strengthen Hellscream through Desperate Brawl, and he transforms amid black flames before invoking Doomsday over the battlefield. Combined with his equipment, personal enhancements, and allied buffs, his following axe strike destroys the summoned knights and devastates the battlefield 383.

The captain survives only in a gravely wounded state. Shen Xing orders Hellscream to end his suffering, and Hellscream delivers the final blow 383.

Monster Tide, Tier Four, and the Moon Laurel Tree

During a later monster tide, Hellscream repeatedly uses Bladestorm without a cooldown to slaughter the attackers entering the eastern district, while Gorehowl holds the southern battlefield 438.

He subsequently passes an S-rank trial and reaches Tier Four, doubling all attributes, gaining a further agility bonus, and mastering Mountain Collapse, the fourth level of Power Control 463.

At the Moon Laurel Tree, he unleashes hundreds of axe blows without managing to fell it. He discovers that the tree’s rebounding power instead improves his ability to control and coordinate his strength, making a short session equivalent to a week of cultivation 476.

Doom Demon Lord and Later Campaigns

Shen Xing later uses Life-Sacrifice Evolution to raise Hellscream to Overlord ★. The advancement transforms him into a Doom Demon Lord, activates part of his ancient orc bloodline, and grants second-level Orc Titan Domain, Summon Doomguard, and Realm-Severing Slash. At level 30, his agility is nearly fifty thousand, and Shen Xing identifies him as a trump card capable of reversing desperate battles 484.

During the dragon invasion, Hellscream overwhelms an opposing Tier Four Overlord Rank dragon after Desperate Brawl raises his attributes sevenfold. His fourth-level Power Control further magnifies the advantage 521.

When the Red Dragon Sovereign creates two Grandmaster Rank dragons, Shen Xing assigns one to Hellscream and the other to Kratos, with Fordring and the remaining heroes ready to support them. Hellscream activates Orc Titan Domain and grows over one hundred meters tall to meet the threat 525.

In the later battle against Black Hawk City, Hellscream and Kratos overwhelm the vice city lord. Kratos delivers the battered captive to Shen Xing, and the enemy soldiers surrender after their commander’s defeat is announced 578.
