Chapter 628: Sargeras and Roy (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Sargeras saw Roy, Roy also saw Sargeras.
At their level, the distance of vision was no longer a problem. On this planet, Sargeras and Roy had the strongest presences. No matter how far away they were, they could sense each other.
Roy was observing Sargeras’s appearance. Of course, he knew that Sargeras was still a world-soul titan, so he was very curious about his appearance before his fall. Perhaps he had seen too much of Sargeras’s demon body burning with raging flames. Now that he saw Sargeras’s original appearance, he actually felt that this guy was… quite handsome.
How should he put it? The appearances of the titans of the Pantheon were very in line with the appearances of the gods in the minds of various races. They were glorious, majestic, and had endless divine power. It was the same for Sargeras. As the strongest Champion of the Pantheon, his temperament was close to that of a god of war, and he had an unparalleled and powerful aura. No one would doubt the power contained in his body when they saw him.
Although he’s just an incarnation, he’s indeed a formidable opponent… Roy sighed, but he still got Rafaro to approach Sargeras.
While Roy flew over, Sargeras was looking at this demon named Osiris. From the moment he saw Roy, he was very sure that this demon didn’t come from the Twisting Nether.
After fighting against the demons of the Twisting Nether for so many years, Sargeras knew very well what kind of state these Twisting Nether demons were in. They were crazy, chaotic, and disorderly. Even though only some demons had considerable intelligence, they were still full of a violent and tyrannical aura.
But this King of Despair Osiris in front of him was full of mysteries that Sargeras couldn’t see through. Be it his clothes, appearance, or mount, he was vastly different from ordinary demons.
Is it a demon from another world? Sargeras guessed. At the same time, a strong fighting spirit arose. He could sense Roy’s strength. It had been many years since he had seen such a powerful demon in the Twisting Nether. No matter where this demon came from, he had aroused Sargeras’s fighting spirit.
On the ground, the Twisting Nether demons under Roy’s command surged toward the temple like a tide. Many demons that could fly were moving densely like dark clouds in the sky. But Sargeras’s eyes didn’t seem to see these demons at all. His eyes were only on Demon Osiris standing above the dragon in the sky…
The battle around the temple began. The strongest native warriors on this planet formed a solid defense line to resist the attacks of the Twisting Nether demons. They were also full of fighting spirit because behind them, the gods were with them!
But even so, everyone, including the violent demons, knew that the outcome of this battle didn’t depend on them but on the commanders of both sides.
Regardless of the battle on the ground, when Roy flew close to the temple, Rafaro’s nearly ten-kilometer-long body twisted and circled in the sky like a meandering snake. But at this height, he only reached Sargeras’s face, whose colossal titan body was towering into the clouds. He had already entered the battle preparations. He held his longsword in his hand. It was Gorshalach, but this sword was a projection version. The real Gorshalach was too powerful, and it couldn’t enter the planet’s shield.
“King of Despair Osiris…” Sargeras looked at Roy and snorted coldly. “It seems like you’re behind this planet’s shield. Do you not dare to face my true body?”
Hearing this, Roy grinned sinisterly and waved his hand. “Of course. I’m not stupid. Sargeras, the strongest titan of the Pantheon, how can I not know how powerful you are?”
“I’m very curious. How did you tamper with the instruments of the Pantheon?” Sargeras asked curiously. “I wouldn’t be surprised if you destroyed it, but how could you know the knowledge of the Pantheon to tamper with it?”
Roy shook his head. “That’s not important. What’s important is that I did it so that you could only enter this world as an incarnation. This way, I still have the strength to fight.”
“Hmph, what a joke!” Sargeras snorted coldly. “Haven’t you thought that I can destroy the shield directly?”
“Haha…” Roy chuckled. “But I bet you wouldn’t!”
Roy knew very well that this planetary shield wasn’t so easy to destroy, not even for Sargeras! Why? Because this planetary shield was the highest crystallization of the Pantheon’s technology. If it could be easily destroyed, then when Sargeras invaded Azeroth later, he would have long broken Azeroth’s shield and then descended with his true body. How could he have done so many troublesome things?
Of course, perhaps this planet’s shield couldn’t compare to Azeroth’s shield. After all, this planet didn’t have a world-soul, and the titans didn’t necessarily value this place too much. But no matter how low the effectiveness of the shield was, it wouldn’t be easy for Sargeras to destroy it, right?
This kind of planetary shield actually had the same principle and logic as the will of a world. The stronger the being, the stronger the protection and repulsive ability. On the contrary, the repulsion and resistance to weak foreign beings would be much lower. Roy had used this loophole to throw out the Demon Eye detectors, find the shield generator in the center of the earth, and then use the system to tamper forcibly with it. This had cost him a lot of souls.
After tampering with it, Roy entered and then changed the shield to take effect on titans, which prevented Sargeras’s true body from entering.
It had to be said that the titans’ shield equipment was really useful. When combined with the world’s will, it could even resist powerful existences at the Deadly Sin level from entering the world. This was equivalent to forcibly lowering the energy level of this world from high-energy to ‘pseudo’ low-energy mode, which amplified and strengthened the world repulsive effect.
However, there were also disadvantages. The true energy level of this world had not decreased, so powerful demons like Roy could still move freely after entering the world.
“Arrogant fellow!” Sargeras was furious after hearing Roy’s words. He had initially communicated a little before the battle because of the differences of this demon in front of him. But now that Sargeras was angered, the communication ended. He raised Gorshalach in his hand and slashed at Roy’s and Rafaro’s heads.
With the move, winds and clouds erupted, and thunder rumbled. The raging flames on Gorshalach’s sword split open the atmosphere of this planet, just like the disaster of a meteorite. Roy didn’t dare to be negligent. As he fell from the sky, Rafaro’s body under his feet directly transformed into the Void Seeker and quickly flew away, disappearing. Roy turned into his Chaos Body, and his body rapidly expanded. Holding Frostmourne, which had also become several times larger, he faced Gorshalach’s blade.
The moment the blades of both sides collided, an intense flash illuminated the entire sky, extremely dazzling. From outer space, it seemed as though a solar flare had erupted at the location of this planet’s temple!
All the humans and demons who overestimated themselves and dared to look up screamed as the intense flash blinded them.
But before they could cover their eyes, the violent energy collision caused by the battle between Sargeras and Roy arrived. Monstrous flames swept across the entire battlefield with unparalleled heat, and light and heat instantly engulfed a radius of thousands of kilometers. The fighting humans and demons melted and burned before they could even make a sound. Their flesh and blood evaporated in a short moment, and their bones didn’t last long either. In just a couple seconds, they turned into ashes and spread out with the flames.
The terrifying scene of a battle between gods was unimaginable for the creatures living on land. And this scene was destined not to be recorded by anyone because all the creatures that could see this scene had turned into ashes…
In just the first exchange between Sargeras and Roy, the entire battlefield had disappeared. This terrifying catastrophe had wiped out all the humans and demons. But as the instigators, neither Sargeras nor Roy cared because they knew very well from the beginning that these creatures on the battlefield wouldn’t survive. Their self-righteous war was just their self-righteousness…
This was the apocalyptic catastrophe caused by the full-strength attacks of two demon kings who could destroy worlds.
The eruption of light and flames swept away, and then there was a loud bang. In this battle, Roy was no match for Sargeras’s immense strength. After being slashed by Sargeras, he smashed into the ground. It wasn’t easy for his Chaos Body to offset the force. In order to avoid being injured by Gorshalach’s blade, he transformed into his demon body and used the force of the slash to smash into the ground. As a result, not only did a huge pit appear on the ground, but countless cobweb-like cracks appeared on the ground for nearly a hundred kilometers around.
After being smashed tens of kilometers into the ground, Roy finally stopped. He stood up and turned into a Chaos mist that drifted out from the ground. But even so, his eyes were full of excitement.
It was normal to be suppressed when competing in strength with a titan. It was the same even though Roy had already used the Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet to increase his strength to the highest. But this small loss was within his expectations. He was excited that Frostmourne had withstood Gorshalach’s slash without any damage in this exchange. In other words, Sargeras’s projected Gorshalach was not much stronger than Roy’s weapon.
In this case, he would have a chance to fight Sargeras on this planet!
Roy knew very well that as long as existences at the level of him and Sargeras weren’t really crushed, it wouldn’t be easy to determine the winner. It was nothing more than seeing who was more resilient during combat, who could persevere, and who could seize the opportunity to attack better.
Roy flew back into the sky and faced Sargeras again. This time, he tried his best to avoid confronting him head-on. Instead, he adopted guerrilla tactics and used his advantage of being smaller than Sargeras to fight him.
In such a battle, magic and curses were actually not very useful. What could cause damage to the opponent were their weapons, claws, and so on. But even so, because both sides had formidable energy in each attack, the impact of this battle was exceptionally strong on this planet.
The flashes of light erupting from the temple could even be seen on the land across the sea. The entire planet was constantly trembling, and earthquakes set off giant tsunamis. Countless animals fled from their resting places in panic, and the terrified birds in the sky covered the sky, all trying to get away from the land where Sargeras and Roy were fighting.
Without a doubt, the consequences of this battle were much more terrifying than when Sargeras’s incarnation fought Aegwynn on Azeroth. It had to be known that the battle between Sargeras and Aegwynn had actually been mostly an act. But now, he was fighting Roy with all his might…
