Chapter 479 - Apocalypse's Arrival

As the stone slabs shattered, the four rays of light contained within them suddenly soared into the sky. The colors of these four rays were red, black, gray, and white.

Not only did Sparda and Berial see it, but the ancient angels far away in Aesir City, as well as the detained Dante, Vergil, and Nero, saw these four rays as well.

Under everyone’s gazes, the four rays of different colors pierced through the small world created by Jubileus and flew straight into the sky of Heaven. Then they drilled into four spatial vortexes and suddenly disappeared.

After the light disappeared, the spatial vortexes in the sky slowly closed, and the sky of Heaven returned to calm.

Berial and the others looked at the sky in anticipation, hoping to see something. But one minute passed, two minutes passed, five minutes passed… and nothing happened.

“…Osiris, what’s going on?” Most of Sparda’s body was in an earth pillar, and he barely managed to turn his head to look at Roy speechlessly.

Even Berial, Madama Styx, and the others were looking at Roy with grief on their faces, waiting eagerly for his explanation.

But… Roy himself was a little confused because he did not understand what was going on. Why did nothing happen after so long?

Are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse not at home? Or is it because this world is too far away from the Darksiders world, and I can’t send information out of the service area? Or… have the stone slabs expired??

Countless thoughts flashed through Roy’s mind. He wanted to say something, but he did not know where to start.

At this moment, Jubileus became impatient. She wanted to see what this demon lord wanted to do, but after waiting for a long time, nothing happened. This made her feel like she had been fooled by him, so she clenched her hand and prepared to use her power to strangle all the demons.

However, before she began, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky!

Through the shattered sky of the small world, everyone could see that the sky of Heaven was trembling! Yes, trembling! The atmosphere was shaking, and light was distorting, giving people the feeling that the sky was trembling.

The next second, a massive pitch-black spatial vortex suddenly appeared in the sky of Heaven. It was as though a rift had been violently torn open in the space there. In the vortex was endless deep darkness, as though there was a gigantic eye looking down from the sky.

Roy immediately understood when he saw this phenomenon. The damn message was finally sent to the station!

The network delay had been killing him. Just now, he almost wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in…

This spatial vortex was so immense that it shocked the ancient angels in Aesir City. They wanted to fly up to check the situation, and Jubileus was also looking up at the deep darkness, so she did not stop the angels.

Thus, just as a group of angels flew to the bottom of the vortex, a light suddenly flashed in the deep darkness, and a huge flame suddenly burst out!

Accompanied by the flame was loud rumbling. This flame was like a meteorite as it flew down with billowing smoke. Caught off guard, many of the ancient angels immediately turned into ashes without even making a sound.

But this was not the end. Flashes of light erupted in the darkness one after another. Three more balls of flames rushed out of the void and fell like meteors with thick, billowing smoke.

The four consecutive meteors directly broke through the angels’ formation, and angel feathers were falling everywhere in the sky. After passing through the sky of Heaven, these four meteors seemed to spot their target and headed straight for Roy. Then they broke through the sky of the small world created by Jubileus.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Four deafening impacts followed. In the small world, the land seemed to be bombed by cruise missiles. Every meteor that crashed on the ground broke the ground inch by inch, and the spreading dust formed slowly rising mushroom clouds. After the smoke and dust dissipated, everyone saw four enormous craters in the ground.

At the bottom of the craters, four tall figures slowly stood up.

The first figure was a man in heavy black armor. The knees and gloves of the heavy armor had ferocious skull patterns, and behind him was a large golden sword that looked extremely heavy. Sparda and the others tried hard to see the man’s face, but the red hood on his head covered it.

The second figure was a bare-chested man wearing a skull mask. He had disheveled hair, grayish-white skin, and a large scar on his chest. There were two strange short scythes at his lower back.

The third figure was a woman. She had a fiery body, and her long red hair was fluttering like flames. The weapon in her hand was a long whip.

As for the last figure, he was also wearing a mask. But his mask only covered the top of his head but revealed his mouth. He was completely different from the second masked man. This man was wearing light armor and had a purple cloak wrapped around his neck. The cloak was fluttering high behind him, but it looked tattered. As for his weapons, they were two large pistols with a rough style.

Sparda and the others did not know the origins of these four people, but Roy knew that these four figures were War, Death, Fury, and Strife respectively!

When he saw the four appear, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Being late was better than never…

Among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Roy had only seen two of them—War and Fury. As for Death and Strife, Roy had not seen them during his stay in the Darksiders world.

Under the gazes of everyone, the Four Horsemen walked out of the craters they had smashed when they fell. War turned his head and looked around. “Where is this? Why were we summoned together?”

Death and Strife were also observing their surroundings. They were unable to answer War. Only Fury looked up and saw Roy sealed in an earth pillar. Seeing him, she was stunned.

It could not be helped. Roy’s current appearance was a little different from when he was in the Darksiders world. Moreover, when he saw Fury, he was only a high-rank demon, and now he had become a demon lord. This leap in strength was so fast that it surprised her.

Although she was surprised, she naturally recognized Roy as the summoner. After all, she was the one who had given him the rune slabs to summon the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and she was the one who had made the agreement with him.

“Ohh, Osiris, you don’t look so good!” Fury teased Roy.

Taking advantage of the appearance of the Four Horsemen attracting Jubileus’s attention, Roy suddenly exerted all his strength and finally broke free from the restraint of the earth pillar. He floated in the air and stretched his body while responding to Fury, “Nonsense. If I were in good condition, would I have called you over?”

“What’s going on? Fury, do you know this demon?” Strife walked forward, crossed his arms, and looked up at Roy in the sky.

War answered, “This demon is named Osiris. I’ve seen him once before, but I didn’t expect Fury to give him the summoning runes…”

“And she didn’t mention it to us!” Death said coldly.

“Hey, don’t worry too much about it. I just forgot!” Fury shrugged and spread her hands. “In fact, I didn’t expect this demon to still be alive, so I didn’t mention the summoning runes.”

Roy slowly landed and came in front of the Four Horsemen. He looked at the two Horsemen he had never seen before, Death and Strife, and then turned to Fury. “Unfortunately, I won’t die for the time being!”

Fury waved her hand. “Of course I know. But where is this? Is it the world of Azeroth (Warcraft world) you mentioned last time?”

“No!” Roy shook his head. “This isn’t Azeroth, but another world. I summoned you here because I want you, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, to fulfill that promise and help me eliminate my enemy.”

“Enemy?” Fury turned around and looked at Jubileus floating in the sky. She said in astonishment, “The enemy you’re talking about isn’t her, right?”

“Yes, is there a problem?” Roy sneered.

Fury slapped her forehead and said in annoyance, “Damn it! I shouldn’t have given you that promise back then. You actually want us to help you deal with an Archangel?!”

“What? You can’t deal with her?” Roy asked jokingly.

Fury did not say anything and turned to look at her three brothers. War looked cold and stayed silent. Death wore a mask, and his expression could not be seen. Strife whistled and looked at the surrounding scenery, looking as though it had nothing to do with him.

“Hey! Hey! Don’t be like this!” Fury waved the whip in her hand angrily. “I made a promise on behalf of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. This isn’t my problem alone!”

At this moment, Death finally asked in a cold tone, “What’s going on? Why did you make a promise on our behalf?”

So Fury told him what had happened.

“Corruption?” Death looked at Roy in surprise. “Is what you said true? Has the Corruption power of Azeroth really reached this degree?”

“It might be worse!” Roy nodded. “In fact, when I just became a demon lord, I found traces of the Burning Legion in the Abyss. They captured frost demons like me everywhere in the Abyss… Although I’m not sure how powerful the Burning Legion has become, it is definitely very troublesome.”

Death looked at Roy for a while before saying, “Okay, Fury’s promise to you is effective. We’ll deal with your enemy. But correspondingly, the next time we meet, you have to be in Azeroth! And we won’t help you anymore!”

“Got it!” Roy nodded. “If I summon you in Azeroth, I’ll help you stay in that world for at least a month. This is the promise of the agreement.”

Death nodded and turned to face Jubileus. The other three Horsemen also turned to face her.

They drew their weapons and held them in their hands…
