Chapter 638: Void Flare....

Although Sargeras was skeptical about the combat strength of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, he didn’t say anything. In his opinion, having helpers was definitely better than having no helpers.
Sargeras still had a group of servants under him, and even his apprentice, Aggramar, could respond to his summons. But in the Void World, the environment limited his performance, and he couldn’t summon anyone at all. Now that he saw that Roy had found a group of helpers for him, and from the sound of it, these helpers came from another world, it made him attach greater importance to Roy again.
In the few seconds that Sargeras was thinking, the Four Horsemen completed their observation of the surroundings. The existence of the Void Sun shocked them all.
To be honest, in the Darksiders world, the Four Horsemen were still fighting against Heaven and Hell. Although the corrosion and corruption of the Void had already appeared, it was not the greatest threat. War handing the rune used for summoning to Roy could only be regarded as a precautionary measure, and it was just the vigilance that he should have.
This method actually made the other horsemen a little dissatisfied with War. In their opinion, Demon Osiris might have deceived War to use the Four Horsemen as thugs.
However, the four of them were brothers and sister and greatly valued oaths and credibility. The Four Horsemen didn’t mind helping War fulfill the promise he had made back then.
However, what they didn’t expect was that during this last summon, Osiris really brought them to the source of the Corruption!
Yes, the source. The aura exuding from the massive celestial body, the Void Sun, in the distance was so terrifying. If this wasn’t the source, then what was it?
“Woah! This is a big scene!” Strife said excitedly and nervously. Not only him, but the moment the Four Horsemen noticed the Void Sun, they subconsciously took out their respective weapons.
At this moment, they had developed the highest level of vigilance against the Void…
Time was tight. After Roy recovered a portion of his energy, he began to speed up the production of items to carry order fields for the Four Horsemen. Sargeras took this opportunity to explain the battle goal to the Four Horsemen.
They had limited manpower and combat strength, so it was naturally unrealistic to defeat the Void Lord in the Void World. Therefore, Sargeras’s goal was very clear. This was a probing attack to find a way to find the weakness of the Void Lord. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse quickly understood this, and both sides soon reached a consensus.
Roy completed his soul creations and handed four necklaces to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Then he looked at them and said, “I brought all of you here. If things become impossible, come back. I will bring you out of the Void.”
The Four Horsemen didn’t say anything and nodded solemnly. After putting on the necklace and obtaining order fields, they didn’t delay and left with Sargeras, rushing toward the Void Sun.
Roy stayed quietly on the spot to restore his energy and estimated the time. Not only did he estimate the duration of the order fields, but he also estimated the time when the Void storm would come.
In this Void World full of Void energy, it had always been nothingness and chaotic, so the existence of order fields was like dropping a drop of water into a high-temperature oil pan. The reaction would definitely be tremendous. But because of the vastness of the Void, this feedback would be slower, but it would eventually come.
After some time, Roy sensed that the battle had finally erupted on the surface of the massive Void Sun.
With the enhancement of the order fields, the energy fluctuations erupting from the Four Horsemen and Sargeras were incompatible with the Void energy, so they were naturally very eye-catching. Sargeras had already completely revealed his titan body, and his planet-sized body was the most conspicuous. But from Roy’s vision, his body still looked tiny compared to the Void Sun. How should he put it? From his point of view, if the Void Sun were a piece of flatbread dozens of meters in size, then Sargeras was like a sesame seed on it…
The sesame seed was observable at least. The Four Horsemen were basically invisible. If not for the energy fluctuations, Roy wouldn’t have been able to ‘see’ where they were…
Roy didn’t know how the battle was going, but he thought that Sargeras and the Four Horsemen should be doing their best, so he spent more time observing the situation of the Void Sun. He wanted to know how the Void Lord would react when facing the combination of Sargeras and the Four Horsemen.
However, Roy was disappointed. In his observation, the rich Void energy on the surface of the Void Sun didn’t even have any large fluctuations…
“It’s over!” Roy’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this. Of course, he knew how powerful Void Lords were in the Void, but he didn’t expect them to be so powerful. The combination of the Champion of the Pantheon and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse didn’t cause much changes to this massive energy entity. It could only be described as invincible!
At least at this stage, there was nothing they could do…
Time was almost up for the order fields… While waiting, time passed bit by bit. When the estimated time was about to end, Roy was already ready to receive Sargeras and the Four Horsemen.
Sure enough, the five beams of light soon flew toward Roy and crashed into his order field.
The moment they crashed in, Roy saw the thin layer of the order fields around the five of them collapse. The five of them rushed back at almost the right time. Any later, and they would have been directly exposed in the Void.
Roy saw that the Four Horsemen were all in their transformed states. War had transformed into a gigantic red demon with lava flowing all over his body. Fury looked like a succubus with a pair of short demon wings behind her. Her long red hair had turned golden and fluttered in the flames. Death had transformed into a ferocious skeleton demon, looking like the Grim Reaper. Strife was similar. His transformed state looked more refined, but his entire body was covered in mechanical bone armor, and his left hand had turned into a magic energy Gatling gun. He was indeed worthy of being a gun wielder. Even his transformation was so unique.
Since they were in transformed states, it meant that the Four Horsemen had really done their best. The surging energy in the four of them had long far exceeded that of demon kings. Although they had not yet reached the level of Sargeras, the four of them would likely not be at a disadvantage if they worked together to deal with him.
The four of them could be said to be the strongest helpers that Roy had found for Sargeras… But even so, the current situation of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse didn’t look good. War had lost his demon wings, and Fury’s whips were broken. In short, the Four Horsemen had suffered a lot of damage. Sargeras had already returned to his normal size. He didn’t have any injuries, but one of his arms was contaminated by Void energy!
“What’s going on?!” Roy asked in surprise. “Did the Void Lord fight back against you?”
However, Sargeras didn’t answer him. Instead, he stood silently with a gloomy expression.
Death smiled bitterly. “On the contrary, that thing didn’t react at all…”
“Then, why are you…?”
Death stood up and returned to his human form. He explained, “When we got close, we discovered that the massive celestial body should be some kind of shell, so we tried to break through the shell and go deep inside. But during this process, we found that the thickness of the shell was beyond imagination. All our attacks were eliminated by the Void energy flowing in the shell. Not only did the Void energy eliminate our attacks, but it even constantly corroded the order fields. As time passed, some Void energy drilled in and contaminated us…”
Roy understood. It seemed that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had caused their damage themselves…
“So, you returned empty-handed?” Roy turned to look at Sargeras and the Void energy on his arm.
Sargeras didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he raised his arm and clenched his fist. With his strength, the Void energy quickly dissipated in the order field. He said with a dark expression, “We still gained something… After approaching it, I realized that this massive celestial body is like a cocoon. Although the thickness is beyond imagination, there’s indeed a consciousness inside. That’s the main body of the Void Lord, but it’s very difficult to break this cocoon. In the Void World, the cocoon is constantly being replenished, and the consciousness of the Void Lord is sleeping in the cocoon. The commotion we made didn’t even wake it up…
“We… were completely ignored…”
Sargeras transmitted the last sentence in an extremely dejected tone. Anyone could tell how severe the blow he suffered was. He had rushed forward full of fighting intent, but he couldn’t even disturb the Void Lord’s sleep. Was there anything more frustrating than this?
Just as Roy had thought, Sargeras really felt immense despair at this moment. Roy’s divine spark was the most sensitive to the emotion of despair, and he could feel that Sargeras was currently like a collection of negative energy.
Roy couldn’t observe the specific process of Sargeras’s battle, but he could imagine the process of him constantly swinging his sword and accumulating despair again and again.
“Huh?!” Just as Roy was about to say something, his heart suddenly stirred, and he turned to look at the Void Sun.
Not only him, but Sargeras and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse also looked at the Void Sun in unison. They saw that the Void energy that was constantly churning on the surface of the celestial body was becoming more and more violent, and the thick liquid Void energy flow began to increase substantially.
The Void Storm is coming! Roy immediately realized what was going on. Moreover, it seemed that the manifestation of the Void Storm would be coming from the Void Sun in front of him.
Therefore, he immediately put his hands together and said to Sargeras and the Four Horsemen, “Hold me! We have to go!”
No one wasted time. They immediately stretched out their hands to grab Roy’s arms. Auriel, who was on Roy’s shoulder, had already spread her Void wings and enveloped everyone. Then, with a surge of Void energy, everyone disappeared from the Void.
The moment they left, several clearly shining areas appeared on the massive celestial body in the distance.
A Void flare erupted! Void energy powerful enough to destroy everything instantly swept in all directions…
