“How do you know?” Roy asked curiously after hearing Yogg-Saron’s question.
“It’s very simple… The titans set up cages to imprison us…” The message Yogg-Saron transmitted was relatively complicated, and it spoke intermittently. “This imprisonment even caused our connection with the Void to be fixed… The Void energy information we are communicating with, you can only receive it near Azeroth…”
It was a little complicated to understand, but Roy still understood. “I see…”
Then there was a long period of silence. Roy didn’t say anything and waited for messages from Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth. But Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth didn’t say anything either. After a while, realizing that Roy was unwilling to speak first, Yogg-Saron said, “Osiris, since you’re a demon, then you’re also enemies with the titans… Perhaps you can help us escape from our cages?”
“That’s right, Osiris!” N’Zoth sent a message. “Help us escape from our cages. In the name of the great Void Lord, you will obtain unparalleled power! We can let you rule all of Azeroth and the entire universe!”
The Void energy messages sent by Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth were full of ultimate temptation, and Roy could feel their powerful bewitching ability. But he remained unmoved because he knew very well that the Old God’s words were not worthy of trust at all.
Although the words of Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth were full of logic now, in fact, they themselves were actually crazy and chaotic. If Roy really listened to their bewitchment and accepted the power of the Old Gods, then in the end, he would become an ugly monster like Azshara and the nagas.
So Roy shrugged and replied, “I’m sorry, but I’m afraid I can’t help you because I can’t come to Azeroth at all. The titans’ planetary shield is stronger than I imagined… Moreover, I don’t think I have the power to open the cages for you…”
“These… are not problems…” Yogg-Saron’s message came as it continued to bewitch him. “We have a way for you to bypass the planet’s shield and come. As for the power to open the cages, it’s very simple. In the Void, energy is the least lacking…”
As soon as it finished speaking, the energy in the endless Void suddenly produced a massive tide and surged toward Roy. It seemed that in this short conversation, Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth had already found Roy’s location. He didn’t know what method they used, but they actually mobilized a massive amount of energy in the Void in an attempt to inject it forcefully into him.
Roy wanted to activate his Chaos energy to resist this imposed energy immediately, but he suddenly had a thought. Not only did he give up resisting, but he even chose to accept it openly. But this open acceptance was with Auriel as the carrier.
As expected, after Auriel received the incoming Void energy, her body immediately underwent tremendous changes.
Under the soaring energy, the Void angel wings behind her quickly turned from one pair into three pairs. It restored her original seraph energy level, but it didn’t restore the appearance of her light wings. They were still in the form of flesh wings, and all the feathers on the wings turned into Void eyes that kept blinking strangely.
Roy’s judgment was correct. This wave of powerful Void energy was not completely pure Void energy but Void energy that could exist in the material world and wouldn’t dissipate because of the neutralization with the matter of the material world. It was also the Void energy that Auriel herself possessed.
In fact, after Auriel was transformed into a Void Angel in the Void, the Void energy she possessed had already mutated. Otherwise, after leaving the Void and entering the material world, she would have long disappeared completely due to the reaction of the Void energy and matter. The reason why she could continue to exist was, firstly, because her energy had undergone some mutations, and secondly, because Roy’s Chaos energy was counteracting her continued Voidification, allowing her to become a Void creature that could exist in the material world.
By the same logic, it was precisely because of this slight energy mutation that Auriel wouldn’t explode from absorbing the omnipresent Void energy after following Roy into the Void World. Although it was difficult to detect the subtle differences in Void energy, they were indeed there.
As Old Gods, the Void was the home ground of Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth. It was normal for them to be able to mobilize Void energy, and they wanted to use energy to strengthen Roy naturally so that he could do a better job in the material world. Of course, they couldn’t possibly let him die and dissipate after returning to the material world, so they had made subtle changes to the Void energy to increase the chances of success.
Moreover, by infusing Void power into Roy, Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth naturally wanted to do something insidious. They wanted to create a Void demon so that Roy would absolutely obey them.
However… Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth were connected to the Void through cages after all. They were not really in the Void, so they could not ‘see’ Roy. As a result, not only did Auriel benefit from the energy they mobilized, but they themselves didn’t know it…
Therefore, after sensing that the Void energy was being absorbed and thinking that the infusion was completed, these two fellows thought that they had succeeded. Their tone immediately changed, and they sent Roy a message in a commanding tone. “Okay, Osiris, next, we will think of a way to create a Void rift on Azeroth. What you need to do is to enter the world of Azeroth through this Void rift. This way, you can bypass the planet’s shield. Understand?”
So, there’s such a trick… Roy thought. He had been wondering what method the two Old Gods would use to let him enter Azeroth. He thought that it might be a method similar to summoning demons. But after hearing that they were actually going to open a Void rift, he immediately understood.
Creating Void rifts wasn’t easy, and generally speaking, the consequences were very serious. Just look at the Twisting Nether rift. The leaked Void energy had corroded countless worlds and planets. If Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth created a Void rift on Azeroth, there might be immense consequences.
The key was to see how big of a rift they could open…
“Understood,” Roy replied and stayed where he was, waiting for Yogg-Saron and N’Zoth to start.
He planned to go to Azeroth to have a look. The time jump this time was a bit strange. He didn’t know what kind of event he would participate in during this jump, but in any case, it was probably something that happened on Azeroth. So it wasn’t a big deal to pretend to be under the control of the Old Gods. It was fine as long as he could bypass the shield and enter the planet.
As for… breaking the cages and letting the Old Gods out, haha, stop joking! How could Roy do such a thing? Even if he did anything, it would be to reinforce the prisons for them…
The passage of time in the Void was not very real. After waiting for a while, Roy didn’t know how long had passed, but a Void rift really opened near him. It was… an extremely narrow Void rift about two meters long.
While the rift opened, there was an urgent message from Yogg-Saron, urging him to pass through quickly.
Roy shook his head and said nothing. He shrank his body and drilled into the rift. The moment he passed through, the rift immediately closed. It seemed that this was the limit that the imprisoned Yogg-Saron could do…
The scene in front changed, and Roy ‘floated’ from the Void to the material world. The place he appeared was no longer in space but in a silent valley.
I really reached Azeroth? Roy found it unbelievable. To be honest, he didn’t know how Yogg-Saron did it. Logically speaking, the Old Gods were imprisoned in cages set up by the titans and completely isolated from the outside world. He found it difficult to imagine how Yogg-Saron did all of this.
After Roy appeared, the Void rift behind him immediately closed. But in just a few seconds, the leaked Void energy had already caused devastating damage to the valley he was in. Be it the dark ground under his feet or the dead black trees on the ground, they all turned into ashes and slowly disappeared, as though an invisible hand had erased their existence.
Under these circumstances, Roy could only flap his wings and fly away from this valley. When he flew high into the sky, broadening his field of vision, and saw the surrounding scenery and geographical environment, he came to a realization.
This place looked like Pandaria! What could prove this was a mass of gray energy full of the aura of an Old God in the distance. This energy was invisible to the naked eye, but it was very clear in Roy’s perception.
After some thought, Roy knew which Old God this aura energy came from.
Yes, apart from the unlucky Y’Shaarj, there was no one else…
Since these auras were the baleful auras that Y’Shaarj spewed out before it died, this place was naturally Pandaria. But because the Well of Eternity had not exploded yet, Pandaria was still connected to the continent of Kalimdor…
