Chapter 138: Old Huang burns the Ladder Fortress!

Old K, you're being underhanded. Why don't you open your eyes and take a look, you bastard—does this even count as "fair"?

But clearly, the "Blood God" enthroned high upon the Huang Tong Wang Zuo did not care whether it was truly "fair"; He merely cast down a single glance.

Looking at Skarbrand, whose size was nearly that of a small hill, Alvin felt immense pain. Even if he used every ounce of strength he had, it would be impossible to defeat a genuine Greater Daemon of Khorne. If this thing were thrown into the outside world, it could destroy an entire regiment of the Astra Militarum!

But unfortunately, Skarbrand did not seem to intend to go easy on the tiny human before him.

It had finally seized this opportunity to wash away the shame of the "Blood God." Although it did not understand why the great "Blood God" would care so much about a tiny, cowardly, and weak human, as long as it offered up his skull, it could regain its command.

Crackle!

The iron whip, carrying a foul wind, lashed out directly, producing a piercing shriek in the air.

It was like a blood-red, sinister wind wrapped in spikes, following Alvin's body. The suffocating pressure struck like a tsunami!

The terrifying power contained within it made him dare not hesitate for a second; he immediately rolled to the side. Otherwise, even the Engineer's bio-armor would have been sliced in half by a single lash!

Bang!

The iron whip left an indelible crack on the deep red wall cast from brass!

The sound of dense war drums came from above the "Heavenly" blood-red stairs, as if offering a passionate war song for this unequal battle!

Skarbrand stepped to the beat of the war drums, seizing the gap in Alvin's roll. The iron axe held in its right hand, its blood-red muscles as thick as a bull's, instantly swelled several times over. It slashed down with shocking power; the terrifying airflow was like a flood breaking a dam, or the Heavenly River pouring backward!

Can't dodge it!

Alvin's first thought flashed through his mind.

It was too fast; the speed of the Greater Daemon of Khorne completely exceeded his reflexes.

Since he couldn't dodge, he could only try another method. Sitting and waiting for death was not Alvin's habit. Even if the opponent was an invincible Greater Daemon of Khorne, he still had to fight with all his might!

Massive psychic energy was drawn from the Warp. The moment Skarbrand's axe fell, Alvin pressed his palms together, and blood-red madness surged in his eyes once more.

Psychic Impact!

His target was not Skarbrand, but the falling iron axe!

The impact would spread with both parties as targets. Under the violent blast of air, Alvin was blown away like a cannonball, rolling more than ten meters away in a sorry state.

Relying on a move that hurt himself as much as the enemy, he dodged Skarbrand's strike once again.

Seeing that a mere mortal had dodged a fatal blow twice, Skarbrand, feeling quite annoyed, suddenly felt a glance from the "Blood God" that carried a trace of disappointment.

It had disappointed the great Blood God!

As one of the most powerful Greater Daemons under Khorne, performing so poorly made Skarbrand's anger reach its peak!

"Mortal, I will use your blood to offer the most pious blessing to the Blood God!" Skarbrand roared, moving its two thick legs like a mountain pressing down. The overwhelming killing intent poured down, making Alvin feel suffocated for a moment.

Just now, to block Skarbrand's strike, the psychic energy he had drawn had already exceeded his limits.

But, misfortune never comes singly.

Looking at the rapidly approaching Skarbrand, just as Alvin was preparing for a desperate counterattack, the backlash of the Warp appeared!

The power of the Warp pierced directly through his soul.

The pain, like fire burning, went deep into his bone marrow, as if every inch of his flesh and blood was being incinerated by flames!

"Ahhh—!"

Alvin fell to the ground, wailing in pain, unable to even think.

Yes, if you walk by the river often, how can you not get your shoes wet?

Especially since he was already in Khorne's divine realm and was still recklessly drawing psychic energy from the Warp—how could something not go wrong?

Deeply affected by the Warp backlash, Alvin was powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the Greater Daemon of Khorne, Skarbrand, raised his iron axe and slashed down with all his might.

He refused to accept this!

Why?

Doesn't Khorne care most about fair decisions?

Could it be that, in the eyes of Khorne, such a duel is considered fair?

Alvin was filled with resentment and anger, as if it were about to rush directly into the depths of his spirit. His two eyes seemed to be burning with blood-red flames!

"I refuse to accept this!!!"

But no matter how much he refused to accept it in his heart, he could not stop Skarbrand.

The iron axe fell with shocking momentum, and Skarbrand seemed to have already felt the approval the "Blood God" showed him.

Clang!!!

Suddenly, a violent recoil pulled Skarbrand back from his fantasy into reality.

The iron axe was blocked. Not only that, another, even more powerful force forced it to retreat more than ten steps.

In Skarbrand's astonished gaze, it saw that beside the unconscious Alvin, there was a woman of extreme beauty. She had long, wavy pale gold hair, and within her seemingly delicate and slender body, there was a power that made it feel palpitations.

"I am Skarbrand, a Greater Daemon under the 'Blood God'!"

Skarbrand seemed to realize that this was a tricky enemy. It gripped the iron axe with both hands, staring at her vigilantly: "Who are you?"

The woman wore a somewhat damaged black robe and drew a knight's sword. Her cold eyes stared at Skarbrand, and she said loudly: "I am the proof of the Emperor's divine power, walking between the mortal world and Chaos, exercising the angel in the Emperor's name—my name is Winnie Winslet!"

The next moment, the knight's sword burned with golden flames. The moment Winnie took a step, she slashed out horizontally.

Sizzle—!!

Even Skarbrand, a Greater Daemon blessed by Khorne, could not resist the blade wrapped in golden flames.

Its powerful demonic body was actually slashed open by the golden flames, leaving a shocking wound, and the scorching golden flames made this Greater Daemon of Khorne wail incessantly!

Winnie gripped the blade burning with golden flames tightly, calling out the holy name of the Emperor. In her cold, beautiful eyes flowed the anger from the "Emperor."

At this moment, the blood-red figure enthroned high upon the Huang Tong Wang Zuo seemed to let out an angry roar.

But, He could not stop it.

Winnie raised the holy sword high, pouring all the golden flames burning upon it onto this Ladder Fortress!

Boom!!!

The monstrous golden flames were like an ocean, instantly igniting the entire fortress!

Countless demonic armies of Khorne wailed, their souls completely obliterated by the golden flames. The terrifying power made the blood-red figure on the Huang Tong Wang Zuo angrily grab the giant axe beside the throne, grip it tight, and throw it toward Winnie's location. It was like a meteor streaking across the sky, carrying the wrath of the Supreme God as it descended!

But just as the giant axe was about to land, Winnie took a step back, pulling Alvin, and disappeared directly from this space.

The angry roar resounded in every corner of Khorne's divine realm!

Khorne on the Huang Tong Wang Zuo cast an angry gaze toward the Empire, toward that cold... pitch-black sun!

To avoid anyone saying it's not very reasonable, I'll explain here: Living Saints are generally members of the Sisters of Battle, but there are exceptions. And Living Saints are saints transformed before death, possessing incredible divine power and capable of resurrection after death. ===== CHAPTER 139 =====
