Protagonist:

Above the Dolido orbit, the battle had already entered its final stage.

This slaughter lasted a full three days and three nights.

Countless shattered warship wreckage and rotting monster corpses floated in space.

The Greenskin warships were crude, but under the empowerment of the Waaagh Field, they erupted with astonishing combat power.

They charged recklessly, smashing the Desolate Boat hulls with their prow rams, blasting the surging plague monsters like crazy with their Big Boom Guns.

The monsters on the Nurgle Desolate Boats were numerous, endless to kill, but they had no tactics, no reason, only knowing to charge by instinct.

For the Greenskins, this was the most perfect prey — no need to think tactics, no need to worry about ambushes, just charge up and hack away.

Lianggenna personally charged at the very front line.

He piloted a Fighting Hulk, smashed through the Desolate Boat's cabin wall, and led the Grots in boarding combat.

The Waaagh Field kept rising during the battle, and his body recovered rapidly along with it.

Three days ago he was only three meters tall; now he had grown to four meters.

Although his belly had not yet recovered to the peak-period corpulence, as long as he ate a few more good meals, he would fully recover in no more than a week.

More importantly, this battle completely ignited the Greenskin morale.

The Waaagh Field, originally depressed because of Kal II's crushing defeat, re-coalesced during three days of slaughter.

Green radiance enveloped the entire fleet, growing brighter and brighter, finally recovering to half of its peak-period level.

The Green Skin Boys howled, venting all their resentment on the plague monsters, fighting more bravely the more they fought.

When the last Desolate Boat was blown by the Greenskins into a massive fireball, the entire fleet erupted in deafening cheers.

"Waaaaagh!!!"

"Big Boss is awesome!"

"Hacking these rotten meats feels really great!"

Lianggenna also raised high his machete covered in pus juice, accepting the Grots' cheers.

A satisfied smile appeared on his face, and the giant mouth on his belly opened and closed, emitting heh-heh laughter.

"Well done, boys!" Lianggenna's voice was like thunder.

"Back to Dolido, I'm gonna stew a big pot of Stew Pot to celebrate the victory!"

Anyway, no matter what, we still won!

"Yes, Big Boss!"

Brevis, top of Saint Galus Castle.

Luna sat behind the desk; the golden mask on the right half of her face reflected eerie light in the candle glow.

Dense runes were carved on the mask's edge; as the candlelight jumped, the runes seemed to come alive, rotating on the mask's surface.

Her fingers lightly brushed across the crystal ball on the tabletop; the crystal ball clearly reflected the battle scene above the Dolido orbit.

Deep blue radiance jumped in her deep blue pupils, reflecting explosion flames and splattering flesh and blood, yet not stirring a single ripple in her eyes.

When she saw the last Desolate Boat blow up into a massive fireball in the Greenskin cannon fire, Luna's fingertip paused slightly.

The scene in the crystal ball instantly dissipated, leaving only a cluster of swirling blue mist.

"Nurgle's vanguard, broken in Greenskin hands." Her voice was like a cold wind sweeping across a lake in winter, revealing no emotion.

A week ago, the Lord of Change, while punishing her, also sent down a revelation to her.

The revelation was vague and fragmented, but she could see: a rotting tide would surge toward Brevis, chaos would tear open the calm facade, and this would be her opportunity to alter fate.

She had long since made thorough preparations according to the revelation, mobilized her forces, and planted hidden agents at every critical node.

Just waiting for that "rotting tide" to arrive.

But now, the anticipated beginning had inexplicably been blocked by Greenskins.

The sorcerer standing behind her bowed and asked: "Regent King Adult, do we still continue our previous deployment?"

His voice carried worry.

Everyone knew that ever since Luna woke from her coma last time, she seemed like a different person.

Her personality was no longer impetuous; she became steady and reserved, but at the same time more cold-blooded.

To weave that grand plan capable of changing the entire star system, she would not allow any mishap to appear.

Therefore, who knows how many colleagues had already turned into mindless Chaos Eggs.

Luna did not answer immediately.

She stood up and walked to the window.

Night wind blew in through the open window, caressing her face.

But that half of her face could no longer feel the cool gentle wind; only a faint burning sensation lingered on it.

After a long while, she finally spoke, voice calm: "No need to adjust."

"But..." that sorcerer raised his head, eyes full of doubt.

"Nurgle's vanguard has already been wiped out; the chaos we waited for won't come."

"If we act now, we don't have enough confidence to shake Lin En's rule."

"Chaos is never absent, only late." Luna cut him off, a trace of unfathomable light flashing in her blue pupils.

"Change is the only truth in this world."

"Nothing ever unfolds exactly along the expected trajectory, and the true master of control will always find their opportunity amidst change."

She reached out her hand, trying to grasp that wisp of clear breeze.

"Lin En is too cautious." She spoke in a slow, leisurely manner.

"His bug swarm, I imagine, has already spread to every corner around Brevis; not a single abnormal fluctuation can escape his eyes."

"If Nurgle's Desolate Boat arrives on time, he will surely sense the breath of Chaos at the first moment and mobilize his forces to stand guard."

"At that time, we would instead be guarded against by him in advance."

"But it is different now." The corner of her mouth curved up slightly, hooking a very faint smile.

"The Green Skins destroyed those strange Desolate Boats; he will place all his attention on Dolido's Green Skins."

"He will ready his troops for battle, formulate attack plans, and then exhaust his mind and energy for the coming great war."

"So, he will lower his guard."

"And that is enough."

The wizard fell silent.

He still did not understand Luna's plan; he merely felt that Luna was becoming increasingly difficult to fathom.

"Subordinate understands. Then what do we do now?"

"Nothing needs to be done." Luna turned around and walked back behind the desk.

"Continue monitoring the movements of Lin En and Duo Duo Lv Pi; do not act rashly, do not leave any traces."

Her finger brushed across the crystal ball once more; this time, the crystal ball displayed no images, only a mass of profound darkness.

"Wait."

"We are waiting at all times and in all places."

"Waiting for the arrival of the next tide."

"Yes, Regent King Adult."

The wizard turned and withdrew from the room; the heavy door closed, emitting a dull sound.

The room fell into silence once again.

Luna sat behind the desk, quietly watching the crystal ball before her.

Candlelight danced on her face; the golden mask completely concealed her expression, revealing only a single deep blue eye, flickering in the darkness.

"Everything is within the plan......"
