Chapter 637: Void Sun
....
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After flying for some time, Roy suddenly stopped.
Not only him, but Sargeras also noticed that an indescribable… object had appeared in front of them!
The sense of existence of this thing was too great. Even in this vast Void environment, it presented a boundary that was different from the Void environment. It was richer and darker than the surrounding Void environment, like an inkblot in a ma.s.s of ink. Although the color was the same, it appeared out of place.
Roy and Sargeras couldn’t perceive how ma.s.sive it was. They only approached the edge of it, and their entire field of vision was already full. They could only vaguely sense that it was a sphere, or rather, some kind of… celestial body! The rich Void energy in the Void World condensed and concentrated on its surface, making it resemble a quagmire-like liquid. As it slowly rotated, this rich Void energy kept stirring and raising enormous tsunamis that were difficult to measure on the surface of the celestial body.
Roy and Sargeras stared at this ma.s.sive celestial body in stunned silence. The scene in front of them reminded them of the stars in the universe, but the size of the celestial body in front of them far exceeded that of ordinary stars.
A hundred times? A thousand times? Ten thousand times? It was impossible to say an accurate number…
To be honest, Roy was shocked. The black sun, or Void Sun, in front of him was something he had never seen before. It was as though the entire Void World was full of it. Such a strong sense of existence even gave Roy an illusion and hypothesis. He felt that maybe this Void World was originally a universe, but all the celestial bodies and matter had been devoured by the Void Sun in front of him…
Roy and Sargeras didn’t dare to get too close. Although there were no physical laws in the Void, and such a ma.s.sive Void Sun naturally wouldn’t produce any gravity, they knew about the Void’s devouring effect, so they naturally had to be extra careful.
Sargeras recovered from his shock. As an ancient world-soul t.i.tan with a long lifespan, he had seen all kinds of strange sights, and very few things could shock him. But he had to say that the Void World still subverted all his previous understanding. He looked down at the instrument in his hand and found that the light spot on the instrument was pointing at the Void Sun in front of him. He asked Roy in disbelief, “Is… is this a Void Lord?”
“I… don’t know…” Roy replied. “But if this thing isn’t a Void Lord, how terrifying would true Void Lords be?”
This sentence made Sargeras speechless. Yes, if this wasn’t a Void Lord, then what was a true Void Lord?
As the Champion of the Pantheon, Sargeras was very confident in his own strength. To be honest, although the Old G.o.ds that appeared in the material world had shocked him, they had not exceeded the range of his response. So in fact, Sargeras was indeed afraid of the Void at the beginning, but it wasn’t much. This was also why he dared to let Roy bring him into the Void World. In his opinion, no matter how powerful the Void Lords were, he should be able to deal with them.
But this Void Sun in front of him exceeded his imagination. He didn’t know how to fight this ma.s.sive Void Sun…
The more powerful a creature was, the more it tended to become larger. This was a law of the universe. The strength of world-soul t.i.tans in the material universe was inseparable from their planet-sized bodies. But even though Sargeras displayed his world-soul body here, he still looked tiny in front of this Void Sun.
Sargeras had never thought that he would one day experience this feeling of an ant trying to shake a tree. At this moment, his confidence when he first entered the Void World had been shattered.
Beside him, Roy naturally felt his hesitation and sighed. His initial guess really came true. Sargeras was probably going to be filled with despair from this trip to the Void. But what Roy hadn’t expected was that he would personally bring Sargeras to experience this despair.
Looking at the silent Sargeras, Roy couldn’t stimulate him at this time, so he could only continue observing the Void Sun in front of him.
It wasn’t without reason that Roy recognized this Void Sun as a Void Lord because he really couldn’t imagine what other existence could surpa.s.s this ma.s.sive ent.i.ty formed by Void energy in front of him. He and Sargeras were still very far away from this thing, but the two of them were already feeling the negative auras of chaos, madness, fear, and despair emanating from the rich Void energy. This suffocating pressure was worthy of the name of Void Lord.
Fortunately, such a terrifying existence couldn’t enter the material world. Even if it could enter, the time would be very short. Otherwise, Roy couldn’t imagine what kind of calamity the material world would face.
While Roy was letting his imagination run wild, he suddenly noticed Sargeras’s movements. Sargeras slowly drew his weapon, Gorshalach, and his body was becoming bigger bit by bit. He asked telepathically, “Are you going to attack, Lord Sargeras?”
“Hmm…” Sargeras didn’t say anything else and continued to acc.u.mulate strength silently.
Okay, sometimes, if you don’t work hard, you won’t know what despair is… With this thought in mind, Roy naturally wouldn’t stop him. He only asked, “How do you plan on dealing with such… such a big thing?”
With the change in Sargeras’s body size, the Chaos energy in Roy began to consume faster. Sargeras naturally sensed this change and knew that there might not be much time for him to fight, so he quickly replied, “Although the difference in size is too great, I think there should be some kind of… core!”
“Like the world-souls of you t.i.tans?” Roy asked in surprise.
“Yes!” Sargeras nodded. “Perhaps the situation is different, and it might not have a soul, but the meaning is the same.”
“Are you confident in finding it?” Roy asked directly.
Sargeras smiled bitterly. “No, it’s too big. Its core vital point might be a small piece and very difficult to find, but… I have to try…”
“You might die!” Roy stared at him. “There’s not much time for you. Once the order field is depleted, you will be devoured by the Void. Even if you’re lucky enough to escape, you might be contaminated by the Void.”
“I know. But I am Sargeras!” Sargeras said firmly and puffed out his chest. “I am a t.i.tan who maintains the order of all things, the Champion of the Pantheon. If I don’t even have the courage to fight against the enemy, my honor will be tainted! This is absolutely not allowed!”
The determination expressed in Sargeras’s words made Roy nod. Indeed, although he knew that it was impossible for Sargeras to defeat the Void Lord in front of them, it wouldn’t be him if he didn’t even have the courage to fight.
Of course, the stronger and braver a person was, the faster they would fall after experiencing despair. Roy had long figured this out when he traveled the Infinite Worlds…
Since he couldn’t stop Sargeras’s determination, he simply let him go. But Roy wouldn’t help himself. With his small body, he wouldn’t even be considered sending himself to death’s door if he followed. Instead, he would stay here and watch at all times. Perhaps he could help Sargeras at the critical moment.
Sargeras couldn’t die here, not in the Void. Roy still needed him to help him complete the Movement to the End of Reincarnation.
After thinking about it, Roy stretched out his hand, and a rune appeared in his palm.
“What is that?” Sargeras asked telepathically after noticing Roy’s actions.
“It’s not easy for you to find the core of the Void Lord alone, so I plan to get you a few helpers!” Roy looked at him. “This is a little help from another world. I am fulfilling a promise…”
While speaking, Roy outputted a large amount of Chaos energy to maintain the order field and began communicating with the rune in his hand.
With his actions, the rune in his hand began to tremble and glow.
“Respond to my summons! Four Hors.e.m.e.n of the Apocalypse!” Roy threw the rune in front of him, inside the order field.
The rune shattered in the air and turned into countless light spots. These light spots began to extract the energy of Roy’s order field and formed a s.h.i.+ning spatial channel.
When the Chaos energy in Roy’s body was about to be sucked dry, the spatial channel finally stabilized, and then a figure slowly appeared.
It was War in armor and a red cloak. He carried a huge sword on his back and rode a warhorse with flames burning on its four hooves out of the pa.s.sage. Not long after he appeared, three more figures appeared one after another.
War, Death, Fury, Strife, the Four Hors.e.m.e.n of the Apocalypse in the Darksiders world once again responded to Roy’s summons. But this was also the last time they responded to Roy’s summons. This was the agreement between them.
As soon as the Four Hors.e.m.e.n appeared, they noticed the strange world around them, so they didn’t say anything after appearing and silently observed the surroundings. Sargeras couldn’t help but widen his eyes when he saw this scene.
Of course, he knew how magical the order field created by Roy’s strange energy was. Not only could it carve out a foothold in the Void World independently, but people could even communicate with alternate s.p.a.ces inside. But Sargeras never expected that in addition to this, Roy could actually summon people?!
“Phew… Phew…” Roy panted heavily. It had been a long time since he felt exhausted from running out of energy. It seemed that the consumption of communicating with the Infinite Worlds in the Void was not ordinary. And this was under the situation of having an order field. Without the order field, who knew what would have happened. The Chaos energy in his body was about to reach the critical point. This could be seen from the state of Void Angel Auriel on his shoulder. She was already spreading her Void wings restlessly.
Roy could only take out a Magic Power Potion and drink it to help him quickly restore some energy before suppressing Auriel again.
“Demon Osiris…” War realized that he couldn’t speak here, so he sent a soul voice transmission. “Where is this place?”
“The Void World!” Roy replied as he pointed forward. “Do you see that? That thing is the source of the Void. I’ve fulfilled my promise to you and summoned the Four Hors.e.m.e.n of the Apocalypse. I hope you can join this battle…”
Then Roy pointed at Sargeras. “And he is your partner in this battle…”
The Four Hors.e.m.e.n sized up Sargeras and nodded silently. He was indeed a very powerful warrior.
On the other hand, Sargeras looked at the Four Hors.e.m.e.n in puzzlement. Of course, he could sense the power of the Four Hors.e.m.e.n. He found that their power seemed to be similar to that of Osiris. In that case, how could they help in combat?
Wouldn’t they be devoured by the Void Lord in a single exchange?
Sargeras didn’t understand, so he was puzzled. But Roy knew that the power of the Four Hors.e.m.e.n was not as simple as what they showed now…
Don’t forget, they were nephilim, nephalem…
