I was just fishing, how did I become a Great Old One?

Dimensional rift, the gap between emptiness and reality.

As the starlight of the Koprulu Sector rapidly receded behind us, the universe that had once been ravaged by war (and the smell of hotpot) finally became a barely perceptible point of light.

The Deep Blue Gluttony is traversing the cosmic barrier.

This Frankenstein's monster warship, with the Hercules as its skeleton, the World Tree as its lifeblood, the Ohmu as its vessel, and the Xel'Naga Soup as its power source, is currently in a strange "phased-dive" state.

On the bridge (still that huge panoramic restaurant on the abdomen of the Ohmu).

Jiang Li was polishing his Occam's Razor. After slicing Amon, the blade had gained a layer of dark red sheen, faintly radiating an "appetizing" aura that would make even the gods tremble.

"Is this... interplanetary travel?"

Stukov held a bottle of newly brewed "Amon Void God Flesh Special Vodka" in his hand, looking out the window at the colorful, kaleidoscope-like rotating time tunnel.

"It feels even more dizzy than when I was in my hibernation pod back then."

"Bear with me, Lieutenant General."

Jiang Li didn't even look up.

"We are heading to a... extremely unusual new world."

"There are no Protoss crystals there, no Zerg creep."

"There is only...war there."

"And... a stew that has been simmering for forty thousand years, spoiled, yet extremely delicious... a hodgepodge."

……

[System notification: Approaching the target universe.]

[Coordinate Recognition: The 41st Millennium.]

[Environmental Analysis: High Risk / Extreme Chaos / Idealistic Physical Laws.]

[WARNING! High concentration of subspace energy reaction detected!]

[WARNING! Geller Field... Not installed!]

……

"Geller force field?"

Swan stared at the red alert on the control panel, his mustache practically standing on end in fright.

"Boss! The system says we need something called a 'Geller Field' to protect the spaceship!"

"Otherwise, once we enter that so-called 'subspace,' our ship will be invaded by demons, and everyone's souls will be torn apart!"

"demon?"

Sun Wukong, who was picking his teeth, twitched his ears.

"You mean a monster?"

"That's great! I've been wanting to show off my golden cudgel!"

"Don't panic."

Jiang Li stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

The time tunnel ahead has come to an end.

A crimson ocean of energy, churning with countless screaming faces and twisted limbs, came into view.

That's not ordinary space.

That is subspace.

It is a projection of the emotions of all intelligent beings, and a playground for the four chaotic gods.

Here, the laws of physics fail; only will (and appetite) are the truth.

……

"The smell is so strong..."

Jiang Li took a deep breath.

There was no fear.

Instead, he revealed an expression that resembled that of a gourmet who had walked into a century-old braised food shop.

"The spiciness of anger (khoria)."

"The stench of decay (filth)."

"A bizarrely sour taste (Tzeentch)."

"And... a cloyingly sweet, fishy smell (Slaanesh)."

Jiang Li turned around and looked at the nervous crew members.

"Swann, we don't need the Geller force field."

"That force field is used to isolate the 'smell' from the outside."

"But if you take this ship..."

Jiang Li pointed to the biological warship at his feet, which was using a red oil soup base as its blood circulation.

"Imagine it as... a pot that is boiling."

"So..."

"Have you ever seen a pot that's afraid of outside bacteria getting in?"

"They dare to come in..."

"It's just adding more dishes."

……

Intrusion into subspace.

"boom----!!"

The Gluttonous brute forcefully shattered the membrane of the real dimension and plunged directly into the raging waves of the warp.

For an instant.

The view outside the ship turned into hell.

Countless transparent ghosts screamed, and enormous tentacles reached out from the void, trying to entangle the alien spaceship.

Purple lightning struck the golden dragon scales (Xel'Naga armor), sending sparks flying everywhere.

"They're here!"

Alice's voice became shrill.

"Intrusion detected!"

"Quantity: Infinite!"

"Identifying features: red skin, brass armor, wielding a giant axe!"

"It's... the Khorneas Army!"

……

The Blood God's welcoming ceremony.

In a corner of subspace.

A patrolling Khorne vanguard discovered this enormous object emitting an enticing "soul aroma" (actually, the smell of food).

"Blood sacrifice to the Blood God! Skull offering to the skull seat!"

(Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne!)

Accompanied by this classic battle cry.

Thousands upon thousands of Bloodletters, riding Bloodcrushers and wielding Hellblades, surged toward the Gluttony like a red tide.

They don't need spaceships.

They are themselves a manifestation of the rules of subspace.

In this field, they are invincible.

……

"It's so noisy."

Tal'darim stood on the deck, surrounded by red psionic energy (smelling like red oil).

He looked at those hideous, drooling red demons.

"These things..."

"Even uglier than alien insects."

"and……"

Tadarin frowned (even though he had no nose).

"They...have a strong rusty smell."

"That's blood."

Jiang Li walked over, carrying a freshly sharpened kitchen knife.

He watched as the bloodletters rushed towards him.

His eyes flashed with the stream of analyzed data.

[Ingredient: Khorne Bloodletter (Low-rank Demon).]

[Ingredients: An entity composed of pure "anger" and "subspace gel".]

[Characteristics: The meat is extremely firm (because it's been angry all along). Although it doesn't contain any real flesh or blood, the texture is similar to... a high-density duck blood tofu.]

[Suggested preparation: Mao Xue Wang (a spicy Sichuan dish).]

……

"Mao Xue Wang?"

Jiang Li's lips curled up.

"Serving such a fancy dish right after they arrive?"

"How could I possibly accept this?"

Jiang Li waved his hand.

"Everyone has it!"

"Ready...to receive the goods!"

"Ergou! Take control of the situation!"

"Firebat! Stir-fry the pot!"

"Great Sage! Smash them!"

……

The first confrontation: physical exorcism.

"kill!!"

A massive Bloodletter Vanguard leaped onto the deck of the Gluttony.

It raised its two-handed greatsword, which was burning with hellfire, and slashed down at the seemingly fragile human (Jiang Li).

"For the sake of Khorne!!"

however.

Its sword stopped in mid-air.

Because a furry, black and white claw pressed down on its blade.

Er Gou tilted his head, looking at the red-skinned guy.

"Woof?"

(Is that all the strength you have?)

next second.

The two dogs opened their left mouths (karmic fire).

"call----"

A mouthful of Xel'Naga fire (smelling like red oil) was sprayed onto the bloodletter's face.

This fire is even more domineering than Khorne's hellfire.

"Aww!!"

The person performing the bloodletting screamed in agony.

Its proud subspace resistance was as fragile as paper in the face of this fire of rules from another universe.

Its hard brass armor melted instantly.

Its body... is ripe.

It turned into a huge, still trembling... braised pork jelly.

……

"Great ingredients!"

Tex charged forward, clad in power armor.

But what he was holding wasn't a gun, but a huge colander.

"This thing looks like jelly!"

"Is it edible?"

"It's edible!"

Jiang Li shouted.

"That's a pure aggregate of energy!"

"Rich in iron! Good for replenishing blood!"

……

The nightmare of the demon army.

The once-mighty Khorne army quickly realized something was wrong.

They rushed onto the deck, intending to wreak havoc.

As a result, they encountered a group of... hungry ghosts.

A monkey (Wukong) wielding a golden cudgel would strike the kidneys instead of the head, turning them into meat patties.

A god-like being (Mohanda) shrouded in purplish-black smoke appeared and disappeared unpredictably, his knife specifically designed to slice their hind leg meat.

There was also a human woman in a white coat (Lieutenant Lisa), holding a healing ray, shouting "Disinfect" as she purified the chaotic corrosion on their bodies into food-grade substances.

The most terrifying thing is the ship itself.

The tentacles on the ship (the roots of the World Tree) are like straws.

Grab a demon and just plunge it in.

"Slurp—"

A once vibrant and energetic demon was instantly drained of its life force and reduced to a mere skin.

Meanwhile, in the spaceship's power furnace (hot pot), the broth was boiling even more vigorously.

……

"Back...back!"

The Khorne's army does not have the concept of fear.

However, they do have the concept of stop-loss.

This is hardly a war.

This is clearly... a food delivery!

……

The great demon has descended.

He watched as his underlings were treated like a buffet.

Deep in subspace.

A roar powerful enough to shatter one's soul resounded.

"waste!!"

"That's my blood!"

The red mist exploded.

A terrifying being, over fifty meters tall, with wings on its back and wielding a flaming whip and a giant axe, descended upon the land.

[BOSS: Khornemonx - Bloodthirsty Berserker.]

Title: Kaz'rak the Skullbreaker.

[Level: Chaos Demigod]

Its foot treads on the void, causing even the subspace to tremble.

"mortal!"

Kazlak pointed at Jiang Li.

"Offer your head!"

"I will..."

……

"stop."

Jiang Li interrupted it.

He looked up at the enormous bull-headed monster.

My gaze swept over its strong pectoral muscles, thick thighs, and the pair of chewy wings on its back.

[Ingredient: Bloodthirsty Berserker (High-Tier)]

【Location Analysis:】

* Wings: Similar to the connective tissue of a premium duck's foot, suitable for braising.

* Pectoral muscle: Low in fat and coarse in fiber, making it suitable for hand-shredded beef jerky.

* Ox horn: That contains highly concentrated subspace bone marrow, perfect for making soup.

……

"What kind of look is that?!"

Kazrak felt a chill run down his spine under Jiang Li's gaze.

That was a look it had never seen before.

It wasn't fear, it wasn't anger.

Rather, it's like picking out meat at a market.

"good."

Jiang Li nodded.

"Better than that guy Emon who only has energy and no taste."

"You have a physical form."

"This means..."

"We can make... a braised platter."

……

"court death!!"

Kazrak was enraged.

It brandished its flaming whip and lashed out at Jiang Li.

The long whip was imbued with Khorne's curse; once it touched someone, their blood would boil and explode.

"Be careful!"

Mohanda tried to teleport over to block the attack.

"Need not."

Jiang Li stood still, without moving an inch.

He simply extended one hand.

On that hand, she wore the World Tree bracelet left behind by Orus.

more importantly.

Behind him.

The phantom of the gluttonous god appeared.

It was no longer a simple humanoid shape.

It was a... huge, bottomless, black stomach.

Or perhaps... a mouth that devours all worlds.

……

[Skill: Gluttony - Concept Devouring.]

"suck--"

Jiang Li took a deep breath as the long whip was lashed out at him.

There was no wind.

But that whip made of hellfire and curses.

It actually twisted the moment it got close to Jiang Li's mouth.

It turned into a plume of red smoke.

It went straight into Jiang Li's nostril.

"Achoo!"

Jiang Li sneezed.

He rubbed his nose.

"It's a bit pungent."

"but……"

"This taste..."

"It tastes just like authentic Sichuan Erjingtiao tea!"

……

The entire room fell silent.

Kazrak looked at his empty hands (the whip was gone).

The bull's eyes were wide open, like copper bells.

"You...you ate my Whip of Destruction?"

"That's Lord Khorne's wrath!"

"Yes, he's very angry."

Jiang Li commented.

"It would be great for stir-frying pork kidneys."

Done.

Jiang Li's figure disappeared.

Instant Step.

next second.

He appeared above Kazrak's head, standing between those enormous bull horns.

The Occam's razor in his hand had a blade that flowed with blue gas flames.

"You just said you wanted my head?"

Jiang Li's voice rang in Kazrak's ears.

"What a coincidence."

"I want yours too..."

"Ox tongue".

……

[Knife Skill: Butcher's Skill - Warhammer Version - Tongue-Stripping Technique]

A flash of cold light.

There was no blood splattering.

Jiang Li's knife was too fast, so fast that it severed the nerves before the body could react.

Kazlak felt a cool sensation in his mouth.

then……

It found itself unable to speak.

A two-meter-long, thick, and plump purple tongue had already fallen into Jiang Li's hands.

"Waaaaah!!!"

(My tongue!!!)

Kazrak covered his mouth and backed away in terror.

It has never suffered such a humiliation.

Having spent tens of thousands of years in the warp, it was always the one beheading others, but today it had its tongue cut out!

……

"withdraw!!"

Khaz'rak may be a berserker, but he's not stupid.

This human... is too strange!

It flapped its wings, turned around, and ran away.

They disappeared into the subspace mist.

"Don't run away!"

Er Gou still wanted to chase after him.

"Don't pursue a desperate enemy."

Jiang Li stopped it.

He was in high spirits, carrying the enormous, bloodthirsty tongue of a madman.

"Anyway, it's right here in this forest (subspace), it can't escape."

"I just arrived today, let's make some snacks to go with the drinks."

"Celebrating us..."

"Successfully smuggled in."

……

A gaze from the abyss.

With the defeat of the Khorne army.

The warp mist around the Gluttony dissipated slightly.

but.

Jiang Li knew.

The commotion just now has already attracted the attention of the real big guys.

On the distant, indescribable throne of chaos.

Four great beings simultaneously cast their gaze upon us.

Khorne, atop his brass throne, roared in anger (because his underlings had been eaten).

The filth in the rotting garden stirred the cauldron, generating a strong academic interest in this "new cauldron."

Inside the crystal labyrinth, Tzeentch's nine eyes flashed simultaneously as he began to calculate the future of this variable.

Slaanesh in the Violet Palace licked his lips, feeling an unprecedented pleasure from this "extreme gluttony".

……

"We're being watched."

Stukov looked out the window at the nebula that seemed to writhe with life, and took a sip of vodka.

"Four evil gods are paying attention at the same time..."

"Should I feel honored, or should I write my will?"

"Of course it's an honor."

Jiang Li threw the huge tongue to Swan.

"Swan, take it off the heat!"

"Make the braising liquid a bit stronger!"

"tonight……"

Jiang Li looked at the four gazes coming from the void.

He raised the knife in his hand.

"We invited these four 'bosses'..."

"Let's watch a movie..."

"Mukbang" (eating broadcast).
