Chapter 624: Roy’s Judgment

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Roy was right. This Old God had already destroyed this planet. If the scan could zoom in a little closer, he would find that the grayish-brown matter on this planet was actually the corrupted earth.

These lumps of corrupted earth were in a gelatinous state. They should have been solid rock and soil, but they had now become this dissolving state, making people think of disgusting snot or liquid flowing out after a thick boil was squeezed.

Perhaps this planet once had mesmerizingly beautiful sceneries, fertile species, and rich resources. But now, all of this had become memories. Under the corruption of the Old God, this planet was heading toward its end.

Roy stared intently at the colossal figure of the Old God on the screen. To be honest, his impression of Old Gods before this was only that he felt a little disgusted. He only knew that these creatures like Old Gods were the manifestation of Void power in the real world. Their existence represented the Void Lords. But because the titans of the Pantheon had beaten and imprisoned the Old Gods of Azeroth, they couldn’t cause trouble, so Roy lacked a clear understanding of the dangers of Old Gods.

Until he saw this scene in front of him…

Roy had no way of knowing what the name of the Old God on this planet was, but judging from the powerful Void power permeating its body, it was already a complete Old God. Even if it fought against a titan, it would probably not be at a disadvantage.

Such an Old God should have been entrenched on this planet for a long time. Through continuously devouring the matter of this planet, it caused its own Void power to expand, so it eventually corrupted the entire planet. This process might last thousands or even tens of thousands of years. In other words, it had been a long time since this Old God descended on this planet.

I have a bad feeling! Roy frowned.

Since this Old God had existed for a long time, it meant that the Void Lords had thrown the Old God into this star system many years ago. If Roy didn’t remember wrongly, the purpose of the Void Lords throwing these Old Gods was to see if they could bump into planets that gave birth to world-soul titans and use the Old Gods to corrupt the world-soul titans from inside.

The universe was vast and had countless planets, but there were very few planets that could nurture world-souls. Therefore, Void Lords could only use this method of probability to search for world-souls. But apart from the goal of searching for world-souls, throwing Old Gods into the real world was actually a method to accelerate the corrosion of the Void.

Since the Old God had been released into this galaxy many years ago, it proved that this place was one of the areas where Void corrosion was relatively advanced. So Roy guessed that he might have accidentally fallen into an area where the Void Lords had already corroded the real world after he came out of the spacetime flux.

In order to confirm his guess, Roy ordered Rafaro to leave and continue searching for other planets to see if there were any other Old Gods.

As for the Old God in front of him, Roy didn’t intend to provoke it. First, there was no need. He knew very well that this complete Old God was very terrifying. Second, after this planet was completely corrupted by Void energy, it would quickly fall into the Void and become a part of it. Then the Old God would continue to corrupt the other planets in this galaxy until it finally expanded to the point where it could attack stars.

In other words, this galaxy was hopeless…

Roy got the Void Seeker to leave and continue exploring the nearby galaxies.

Over the next two months, Roy and Rafaro maintained this search process. Without a star map, they could only fly in one direction. During these two months, Roy had found two similar galaxies.

Based on his observations of these two galaxies, Roy finally confirmed his guess. He had indeed fallen into a heavily contaminated disaster area!

In two nearby galaxies, traces of Old Gods appeared. One of the galaxies had even had most of its planets devoured. In this galaxy, an Old God that looked like a giant space beast was floating in space and had even begun to wave its arms and legs in an attempt to corrupt a star. This Old God was already a Deadly Sin-level existence…

When Roy passed by this galaxy, the chaotic magnetic fields and gravitational fields left behind by the corrupted planets after they fell into the Void stirred up immense cosmic storms that almost affected the Void Seeker.

If Rafaro hadn’t avoided it in advance, Roy might have fallen into great trouble.

The other galaxy was not much better. Countless planets had been corrupted by Old Gods.

From his observations, Roy discovered that these Old Gods didn’t appear to have been randomly thrown out. Instead, the Old Gods often landed on planets with life. Only after devouring these planets with life would they gradually devour lifeless planets.

In other words, the Void Lords have judged that planets with life have a higher chance of giving birth to world-soul titans? Roy pondered.

His guess was close to the mark. World-soul titans were a very special kind of life. In the beginning, a planet gave birth to consciousness over a long period of time. This consciousness was the so-called world-soul. After world-soul were born, they would have a very long period of slumber. Only when they finished their slumber and woke up would they become true titans.

Putting aside how difficult it was for planets to give birth to self-awareness, even if it was really born, world-souls needed some special power to reach maturity during their slumber. This special power was the life born on the planets. It would be even better if these lives were intelligent lives. During the process of reproducing on the planets, the various emotions and beliefs they created would be fed back to the world-souls themselves, thereby accelerating the growth of the consciousness of the world-souls.

In other words, whether a planet could give birth to a world-soul titan depended on whether the history of this planet was ancient, whether the living conditions of the planet were suitable for the birth of life, the intelligence and abilities of lives born, and even whether the environment of the planet was well protected. These were all factors that determined whether a world-soul could eventually become a titan.

It was said that Aman’Thul was the first titan to awaken in this universe. During the long time after awakening, he had been searching for his people. But so far, he had only found seven. It was evident how difficult it was to birth world-soul titans.

It was already so difficult for the titans to find their own kind, much less for Void Lords to find a planet with a world-soul titan. They could only use probability to spread out countless Void creatures to search for planets with life, hoping to win the jackpot and find a world-soul titan.

However, this method was actually effective. Eventually, the Void Lords were extremely lucky and found a planet with a world-soul—Azeroth! Moreover, it was the strongest world-soul currently known.

This eventually led to multiple Old Gods appearing on Azeroth… Other planets with life only attracted one Old God at most, but there were four on Azeroth. These four Old Gods worked together to lurk in Azeroth and corrupt it. If not for the titans of the Pantheon rushing over and stopping the Old Gods in time, Azeroth would have long been gone. It would have become like the destroyed star systems that Roy had seen or even worse.

There was no way to stop the Old Gods’ corruption of the real universe unless the Void lords at the source could be eliminated.

In fact, Roy had come into contact with the Void World a few times, so he had slowly come to a conclusion. Although the Void World was the opposite of the material world of the real universe, in fact, if it were just pure Void, its corrosion of the material world was actually inert and passive!

He had vaguely noticed this since he was in the Darksiders world. The space where Samael’s demon king city was was being corroded by the Void, but the corrosion was very slow. The energy pouring out of the Void rift was devouring matter at a relatively uniform speed.

But this was only referring to pure Void. Once Void creatures participated in this corrosion process, it would be completely different!

After Void energy entered the real world and combined with intelligent life, Void creatures would be born. Although most Void creatures would become crazy due to corrosion and lose their minds, turning into existences that only knew destruction, a small number of relatively powerful intelligent lives could maintain their consciousness from being annihilated during the corrosion and eventually become conscious Void creatures. But at the same time, this state wouldn’t last long. As time passed, these conscious Void creatures would slowly move closer to the Void. Their thoughts would be inclined toward the Void, and they would try every means to increase the speed of the Void’s expansion.

The representatives of this kind of Void creature were naturally Void Lords…

In fact, looking at Roy’s current state, he could actually be regarded as a Void creature, and he was a powerful demon king-level Void demon. If he used his Void energy without restraint and grew stronger as the Void energy devoured the matter around him, he might eventually become a Void Lord-like existence. But what was special about him was that the Chaos energy in his body prevented the expansion of Void energy!

Even the corruption of Void Angel Auriel on his shoulder slowed down. This was a unique special case among Void creatures.

After summarizing his situation, Roy had a certain understanding of his current circumstances. He knew that he was now in an area where Void Lords were corroding the world. When sailing in this area, not only would he encounter endless Old Gods, but he might even encounter Void Lords.

Although it was very difficult for Void Lords to appear in the real world, what if?

“The idea of finding a planet with life to search for a star map is too uncertain!” Roy said to Rafaro. “After I’ve thought about it, there might only be one kind of life with a detailed star map at this point in time!”

“Titans?” Rafaro instantly understood. “Great Master, what you said makes sense. Even if we find a planet with life, ordinary intelligent races probably don’t have the ability to navigate the universe, so it’s naturally impossible for there to be a star map. Only titans can have a star map.”

“That’s right!” Roy’s eyes flickered. “But it’s impossible for us to go to the Pantheon. Putting aside the fact that we don’t know where the Pantheon is, even if we find it, with my identity as a demon, it’s impossible for the titans to talk to me. So we actually only have one goal…”

“Sargeras, right?” Rafaro guessed what Roy meant, but he said depressedly, “But we don’t know where Sargeras is either. How do we find him?”

“If we can’t find him, then let him find us!” A smile appeared on Roy’s face. “Although I’m not too sure what the exact time point is, I already have a rough guess from the existence of these Old Gods and my deeds recorded in history…”

Roy clenched his demon claws and said confidently, “Murozond wanted to throw me into the spacetime flux to make me lost, but Nozdormu took the opportunity to achieve the timeline he wanted and sent me to the historical line where I should be. If I’m not wrong, at this time, Sargeras is probably hunting down the demons of the Twisting Nether all over. My return here might be to complete the history of my encounter with Sargeras… So, believe me, I can definitely get him to find me!”
