But inside the barrier, under a tenfold time difference, Luna still gained a full ten minutes of respite.

When the last barrier fragment hit the ground, the witchcraft runes at the center of the sacrificial altar happened to all light up.

Luna raised her staff high and let out a maniacal long laugh toward the sky.

"Too late! You're too late!"

In the void behind her, a five-meter-high Warp rift boomed open.

Surge of five-colored Chaos energy churned at the rift's edge — red for blood, green for rot, pink for intoxication, blue for strangeness.

Four completely different Warp auras intertwined, forming a distorted pressure.

Furious roars, sharp shrieks, maniacal laughter surged from the rift's depths, carrying the Warp's unique madness and cruelty, rushing at their faces.

The first to burrow out were a pack of Blood God's Flesh Hounds drenched in gore.

They had jackal-like bodies, steaming hot blood dripping from their mouths, bloodthirsty red light pulsing in their eye sockets.

The moment they landed they let out excited whines — these are the Blood God's claws, forever chasing slaughter and blood.

Close behind came bloated Plague Bearers, dragging suppurating bodies, leaving corrosive traces on the ground with every step.

Buzzing Corruption Flies followed close behind; wherever they passed the air filled with a cloying stench — Nurgle's subjects.

Several slender, bewitching figures slid out along the rift's edge; they had near-perfect human female silhouettes, skin tinged an abnormal pinkish-purple.

They held bizarrely shaped torture implements and poison-coated short blades in their hands, eyes full of teasing and cruelty.

Lord of Lust's Imperial Cultists Lue Duo Zhe, best at harvesting souls amid pleasure and pain.

And from deeper in the rift, swarms of Pink Terror Demons and Fire Demons floated out, chittering in strange laughter.

Arcane flames dancing at their fingertips — precisely Lord of Change's demons.

There was even a Mo Mo Zhe covered in brass armor striding out with heavy steps, Chaos firelight flickering in its cannon barrel.

Four Gods demons, gathered together.

The instant they stepped out of the Warp, demons of different factions almost instinctively looked at each other.

Blood God's hounds let out threatening low growls at Nurgle Beasts; Lord of Lust's Seekers swept disdainfully over clumsy plague toads.

Lord of Change's Fear Demons hopped eagerly on the side, constantly goading the other demons, wanting to watch the other three sides fight.

The Great Game is engraved in every demon's consciousness; even summoned together, their first reaction on meeting is to tear each other apart.

But only a fleeting instant passed, and all demons' heads simultaneously turned toward the human positions around the hall.

Fresh souls.

Steaming hot flesh and blood.

Anger, desire, greed, fear... human emotions and souls are the "delicacies" Warp demons flock to.

Compared to infighting with old rivals, clearly these mortal armies arrayed in formation are more tempting prey.

Flesh Hounds let out excited howls and charged out first.

Corruption Flies drifted unsteadily behind, scattering poison mist along the way.

Lord of Lust's figures turned into streams of residual images, circling toward the position's flank.

Lord of Change's demons floated in midair, arcane missiles already condensing at their fingertips.

"See it? Lin En!"

Luna floated beside the Warp Gate, staff tapping lightly, maintaining the rift's stability.

She looked at the demon army surging out like a tide below, the smile under her mask arrogant and maniacal.

"This is my third trump card,"

"Gate of Calamity!"

"Lord of Change's witchcraft, Blood God's fury, Plague Father's pestilence, Prince of Pleasure's torture..."

"The Four Gods' gifts, I've prepared them all for you!"

She didn't lurk in Saint Galus's underground for so long just to corrupt a few Knight Mecha.

Under cover of the Bottom City Plague, she spent a full half year building this cross-realm Door at the deepest part of Underground Third Floor.

She didn't need to open it fully, only needed to temporarily tear open a gap to let endless demons pour into reality.

The mixed army of Four Gods demons is far harder to deal with than a single Evil God's troops.

Blood God's units always charge at the very front; they despise ranged firepower, despise spirit spells, charging solely on flesh bodies and Green Skin Virus Rampage battle intent.

Bleeding Ghost's Huang Tong Zhan Dao can easily cleave Ceramic Steel armor; Mo Mo Zhe's Bao Dan smash into positions, each shot blasting away half an infantry squad.

They are fearless of death; even if explosive rounds blast half their bodies apart, they crawl toward the nearest human, tearing final wounds with teeth and claws.

Nurgle's demons are like moving poison sources.

Plague Bearers' poison mist corrodes both flesh and soul; Nurgle Beasts crash straight into formations, their rotting bodies exploding into death zones.

Corruption Flies fill the sky covering the sun; corrosive liquid from their mouthparts drips onto the ground, sizzling as it melts out pit after pit.

Even more countless Nurgle Spirits hop and jump mixed in the ranks.

These mini versions of blessings are inconspicuous but equally deadly; touch skin and ulceration begins.

Lord of Lust's troops are like streaks of eerie shadows.

They never charge head-on, always using chaos to circle to the position's flank and rear, severing soldiers' throats with poisoned short blades, shaking minds with hallucinatory whispers.

Many soldiers merely caught a glimpse of their bewitching silhouettes and instantly lost their wits; the next second they were pierced through the heart by sharp blades.

Meanwhile, Yi Su's demons steadily occupied the rear output positions.

The Pink Terror Demon's arcane missiles struck the heavy firepower points with precision, and the Fire Demon's fel flames were thrown out constantly.

All manner of unpredictable Chaos Witchcraft emerged in endless succession — some summoning distorted space rifts out of thin air, others turning the ground beneath soldiers' feet into sudden quicksand, impossible to guard against.

"Maintain formation, heavy firepower suppress the front, infantry firepower pin down the flanks!"

The Vanguard Army's officers roared until their voices cracked, trying to steady the tottering Defensive Line.

The Bomb Guns' roars merged into one piece, the dense Firepower Net splashing toward the charging demon horde like a violent Rain.

The front-rank Blood Flesh Hunting Dogs were blasted into flying gore, but the demons behind trampled their companions' Corpses and kept charging, speed not reduced in the slightest.

The Leman Russ Tank's Main Cannon kept Roaring, blasting a Nurgle Beast into a sky full of pus.

But the flying pus landed on the front-rank soldiers, and acrid white smoke and Shrieks Rose simultaneously.

Fortunately, most of these demons lacked flight capability and could only climb the Xuan Lie Jie Ti to rush the labyrinth surface.

And dozens of Purge Plague Bishops had long since propped up a domain shield formed from Bug Swarm Shadow in front of the Position.

The Pale Purple Spirit Energy Barrier resembled a giant filter net, blocking out all the Warp Corrosion, mental Whispers, and Plague permeating the air.

The soldiers could not hear the demons' seductive gibbering, would not be bewildered by the Lord of Lust's Illusions, and would not contract Nurgle's Plague Spores and fall instantly ill.

This was the most critical defensive line in Lin En's hands.

Yet even so, faced with the endless demon armies surging from the Warp Gate, the human Defensive Line kept falling back.

Casualty numbers climbed rapidly, heavy firepower points destroyed one after another by demons.

Soldiers emptied Magazine after Magazine, Corpses piling higher beneath their feet, yet they still could not see the end of the demon tide.

Luna stood on high ground, watching the human army retreat step by step, her laughter growing Louder and Louder.

She wanted to see just what Keli Feng Na could use to stop this Despair Calamity.
