"Boss, this is the little thing!"
Khorne, seizing the opportunity, pointed at the Blood God, who had been beaten to a bloody pulp and hung on a flagpole like a dead dog, and said:
"He seems to know...know some secrets?"
But Khorne couldn't remember the rest of what he wanted to say.
After all, he only cared about war and honor.
Such brainy matters were a bit beyond him.
"Let me explain."
Tzeentch pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and succinctly recounted the information they had unexpectedly obtained from the "Blood God."
It turned out that a demon lord named Lilith was attempting to create mass panic in the real world through seven "Night Demons," including the "Blood God."
This was to complete a sacrificial ritual, forcibly opening a dimensional passage and releasing the "Vampire Progenitor" Varna from a certain dimensional realm.
Unexpectedly, Lilith's motive sounded incredibly cliché.
She wanted the "Vampire Progenitor" to revoke the "Undying Trait" he had bestowed upon the Vampire King Vlad Tepes Dracula—a conceptual-level bug that allowed him to be killed but not destroyed.
That way, Lilith could kill Dracula herself!
However,
because Vampire King Dracula's whereabouts were extremely secretive,
usually only appearing for a few days at the Vampire Clan's once-a-century "Centennial Conference," the sacrificial ritual had to be completed precisely at that time.
But perhaps because the Blood God's soul essence was incomplete, or he simply didn't know the core secrets,
he was completely ignorant of crucial information such as why Lilith wanted to kill Dracula herself, the identities of the other six "Night Demons," the specific location of the sacrificial ritual, and the summoning method.
"So, the demon soul fragments collected back then were from this Blood God..."
A look of understanding flashed in Karl's eyes, but he immediately focused on the [Undying Trait].
However, when he tried to search his memory for information about Vlad Tepes Dracula, he found that he knew nothing about this Vampire King.
But this was completely understandable.
After all, Karl's knowledge of Marvel characters was no different from that of ordinary people, limited to the [Movie Universe].
Even if he knew some classic scenes from the [Comic Universe], it was only from popular videos on platforms like TikTok and Bilibili.
So, he naturally didn't know much about this "unremarkable" Vampire King.
But one thing was certain.
Karl was very interested in this "can be killed but not destroyed" [Undying Trait]... Okay, okay, no more pretending, I'm greedy, I want it too!
In his opinion, regardless of whether this [Undying Trait] could reach the Bug-level degree the Blood God described,
the mere fact that a demon lord was willing to risk a direct confrontation with the Sorcerer Supreme and [Kamar-Taj] to erase it meant it was definitely not simple!
He wouldn't have cared if he hadn't known this information before.
But now that he knew, he naturally had to figure it out, understand it, and get his hands on it...
Moreover, he happened to have a ready-made vampire team that he could use to secretly gather information about Vampire King Dracula.
In addition to this,
this unexpected news also served as an early warning for Karl.
It brought back the sense of crisis and urgency he had felt when the dimensional coordinates were about to be exposed.
It had been more than three months since he had transmigrated.
After successfully resolving the issue of the exposed dimensional coordinates, he subconsciously focused all his energy on developing his forces in the real world.
Firstly, he had no interest or experience in becoming a dimensional demon god at that time, simply regarding [The Warp] as a means of survival.
Secondly, Earth was protected by the Ancient One and [Kamar-Taj], making it impossible for dimensional demon gods to forcibly sneak in.
So, he subconsciously ignored the dangers from other dimensions.
As an ordinary person, Karl was not just unfamiliar with the war between dimensional demon gods, he simply didn't understand it at all!
This was definitely not "knowledge" that could be filled in by reading a few web novels.
This way of thinking continued until after Frank and Selena's battle with the Blood God, when it changed somewhat.
In that battle,
the Blood God kept shouting, "Only a god can kill a god!"
And human weapons couldn't truly harm his soul essence, and even if his body was destroyed, he could quickly recover...
These scenes left a deep impression on Karl.
It also made him truly understand the existence of demons and the true meaning of the phrase "Only a god can kill a god!"
It was because of this that he didn't immediately eliminate the four Chaos Gods after discovering them.
Instead, he took advantage of the situation and formulated a new [Four Gods Development Plan].
Now, the information about Lilith and Dracula once again indirectly confirmed the necessity of Karl's planned "real world and [Warp] dual-line development plan."
Because the enemy was far more than just from the real world.
Perhaps he would need to face these dimensional demon gods at some point in the future.
If he didn't accumulate enough power in advance, he would probably be at their mercy.
Although Karl had no experience in the war between dimensional demon gods,
fortunately, he had learned an important lesson from his years in the workplace.
That is, sometimes, as a qualified boss, you don't necessarily have to know all the professional knowledge.
You just need to know how to use people and arrange for professionals to do professional things!
There were countless successful cases like this in China's long civilization.
The situation Karl was facing could be solved using this thinking and method.
Karl could solve the real-world affairs himself.
And the affairs of dealing with dimensional lords could be left to the four Chaos Gods.
Intrigue, calculation, war, corruption, omnipresence... weren't these precisely the areas they were best at?
Moreover, Karl didn't have to worry about their loyalty at all, so he was willing to give them this trust.
Σ(⊙▽⊙"a???
Eh?
Why do I suddenly feel like I'm going to become the boss of the Chaos Gods?
However, although Karl wouldn't ask about the specific operational methods of the four Chaos Gods in executing the [Warp Version - Fun-loving People Plan],
in order to prevent these unscrupulous guys from having unnecessary conflicts with those powerful beings in the early stages of development, thereby becoming the target of public criticism,
Karl felt it was necessary to first popularize the powerful "gods" that existed in Marvel for them.
After all, including the Emperor, their current strength was "weak."
Like five little beasts waiting to be fed, they simply couldn't reach the omnipresent level in [Warhammer 40K].
If the dimensional coordinates of [The Warp] were exposed due to conflicts with other dimensions, it would undoubtedly lead to a disaster!
So, "making a fortune in silence" was the most correct choice at the moment before he was confident in defeating other dimensional lords.
After a moment of contemplation,
Karl said in a deep voice: "Since this incident involves other dimensions, I will take this opportunity to
educate you about the powerful dimensional lords and 'gods' that exist in this universe besides [The Warp]!"
So, Karl talked about what he knew about
[Hell Lord] Mephisto,
[Dark Dimension] Dormammu,
The latest novels are available on 6_9_shu_ba!
[Crimson Lord] Cyttorak,
[Trinity of Vishanti],
[God of Black Magic] Chthon...
and the "legends" related to the four creator gods [Eternity], [Death], [Infinity], and [Oblivion], whether they truly existed or not.
Originally, when they heard about the abilities and deeds of the dimensional lords in front, the four Chaos Gods and the Emperor were all a little nonchalant, as if they didn't take these guys seriously at all.
The "hot-blooded youth" Khorne even looked eager to try, clamoring to have a hearty fight with these dimensional lords!
But when Karl said "Four Creator Gods," the "five little ones," including the Emperor, all fell silent instantly.
Without a doubt,
if these four creator gods, symbolizing the avatars of the multiverse, really existed, they could not only erase the "five little ones" and [The Warp Dimension] at any time,
but would also inevitably become four insurmountable mountains on the "five little ones"' path to "supreme" in the future!!
Karl was very satisfied with their performance and continued calmly:
"Therefore, I hope that before [The Warp] officially grows, you can maintain and implement the action policy of 'despising the enemy strategically and valuing the enemy tactically.'"
"Only in this way can we win more development opportunities and ultimately defeat those powerful enemies and achieve final victory..."
Finally, he didn't forget to add:
"Given that Khorne played a crucial role in the previous 'capture' of the Blood God, as an extra reward... I will give you his soul to deal with."
After saying that, without waiting for the five to respond, Karl directly exited [The Warp] and returned to the real world.
Everyone, remember to work hard, see you at the end of next month!
...
"You... what are you going to do?"
When the Blood God, who had been beaten beyond recognition, saw Khorne, who had regained his dog-headed human form, approaching him, he let out a shrill scream, "Don't come over!!"
But the next second, he was swallowed directly by Khorne in one gulp.
"I didn't expect this waste's soul essence to contain such pure dark energy?"
Khorne's eyes lit up instantly, as if he had discovered a new continent.
Because after successfully absorbing that dark energy, he felt that his "power" had been significantly improved.
This was much faster and more convenient than absorbing those extreme emotions little by little.
However,
Tzeentch disdainfully despised him: "A waste of natural resources... Although it's an incomplete demon soul fragment, it can still be used to create a Greater Daemon embryo."
"When the Boss allows us to invade the physical universe on a large scale in the future, or devour other dimensions, wouldn't the effect be greater than you swallowing it directly?"
"Who are you calling a wh... huh? What dimensional war!"
Khorne, who was about to lose his temper, seemed to suddenly notice the highlight in the other party's words, and directly leaned over to ask without hesitating:
"What's the matter with the dimensional war, can you explain it in detail!!"
Even Slaanesh and Nurgle on the side showed great interest in this topic.
"It seems that my previous guess about why the Boss is unwilling to abandon his real-world body and return to [The Warp] was completely correct..."
Tzeentch pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said in a profound manner in the eager anticipation of the others:
"This world is far more dangerous than we imagined, and there are many extremely powerful beings. The Boss must have discovered this in advance,
and that's why he risked staying in the real world alone, just to win more development opportunities for [The Warp]!"
Speaking of this,
Tzeentch shook his head and sighed helplessly, as if he had just finished making up a story about Karl's arduous struggle:
"Alas, in the final analysis, we are still too weak, and the foundation of [The Warp] is not enough to compete with other dimensions..."
Except for the Emperor who had already "ascended to heaven," the emotions of the other three were fully mobilized by these words, and became violently fluctuating.
Slaanesh's eyes were glistening with tears: Boss, he's so great!
Nurgle: Boss is so hardworking, I must personally cook a bowl of soup for him next time to replenish his body.
Khorne clenched his fists and roared loudly, "I'm going to chop them to death, so the Boss doesn't have to worry."
Tzeentch was very satisfied with this, and immediately changed the subject, "Now, our opportunity has finally come. Under the Boss's efforts,
a gap has been torn in the dimensional barrier that originally blocked the real world and [The Warp]. We must firmly grasp this opportunity."
"The Boss has completely entrusted the future of [The Warp] to our hands this time, not only out of trust, but also as a test for us..."
"We must not live up to the Boss's heavy expectations for us, we must do everything possible to make [The Warp] more prosperous, only in this way can we..."
Before Tzeentch could finish speaking, Khorne interrupted with a howl, "That's right! We need to redouble our efforts to defeat all our opponents and push the Boss onto the throne of the strongest god!"
The words were rough, but the sentiment was true.
However… Khorne, you bastard, interrupting your "leader" like that, do you have any manners?
Seeing the three of them full of "enthusiasm," a subtle cunning flashed in Tzeentch's eyes.
"That's the spirit! Without a strong fighting spirit, how can we better assist the Overlord?"
"[Eternity]? Heh… I really want to see if you can withstand my [Change]?"
"Next, the world is destined to become very interesting…"
Even Karl probably didn't expect that the powerful "gods" of the [Marvel World] not only failed to intimidate the Four Hooligans, but instead became their strongest motivation to surpass themselves.
