The green beam shot straight through Gohr's body. It didn't feel anything unusual, and even thought that this human who suddenly appeared out of nowhere was just bluffing.
Unfortunately, Xia's sudden wail from behind, ten times more tragic than before, told Gohr a cruel fact: Aiden's spell had not been blocked!
It swept its gaze behind, just in time to see the scene of Xia's body collapsing inch by inch.
At this moment, Xia was like a mud sculpture soaked in water. The tissues of its body disintegrated and crumbled, and the red flames on its body, which were enough to melt anything, had also been extinguished. It was like a pile of burnt firewood, leaving only dust flying away with the wind.
Gohr's eyes were bloodshot because it felt Xia's flame of life was going out.
For the ancient gods, that meant death!
It glared at the two perpetrators, wishing it could immediately roast them into charcoal.
However, it didn't dare to do so—
If these two could kill Xia so easily, they could kill it as well.
Sargeras chuckled, "Good cooperation, my brother!"
Aiden didn't answer immediately. He wouldn't really regard Sargeras as a brother. Back in the Twisting Nether, the other party sent Archimonde and Kil'jaeden to hunt him down, and finally even made a move himself, preparing to forcibly fuse him with his soul.
Although he later learned that the three Titans with the highest authority were created and could indeed be considered brothers, Sargeras clearly regarded him as an enemy.
In comparison, Aman'Thul was more friendly.
Seeing Xia being attacked by the Eye of Sargeras and heading towards death, Aiden's mood improved a lot.
If this red sun fell, then Khadgar's prophecy of death would be broken. Moreover, the ancient gods were originally his enemies, so destroying one would be a heavy blow to them.
Aiden learned from the intelligence Vel'koz'zoth sent back that the four sun gods seemed to have some kind of combined skill. Now that one was missing, let's see how they could combine.
"It is indeed a good show." Aiden was very satisfied with the result before him.
"This is not the end." Sargeras showed a meaningful smile.
Gohr was furious. It decided that no matter what, it would launch a tentative attack first, at least to know if these two humans had any other trump cards. However, it was startled when it heard Sargeras's answer.
It almost immediately looked towards another direction in the sky, the direction of Y'aal and K'in, and this one glance almost made its heart and guts split!
The battle here had only lasted half a minute. Almost at the same time Sargeras launched his attack, a burning 'meteor' also rushed down towards them from Y'aal's side.
It was a meteorite, carrying thick smoke and a tail of flames, and not just any tail of flames—it was fel fire!
Fel energy was the iconic energy of the Burning Legion, and Y'aal captured the evil negative energy aura from afar.
While continuing to supply energy to Vel'koz'zoth, it watched the meteorite, only to see a person standing on it!
To be precise, a giant demon was standing there!
This was a giant Eredar with red skin and a body that seemed to be burning. His hands were tightly gripping the meteorite, and his posture was more like he was grabbing the meteorite and throwing it down, rather than the meteorite carrying him through the atmosphere into Silithus.
Kil'jaeden the Deceiver!
This commander of the Burning Legion, second only to Sargeras, made his debut in such an unprecedented way!
Kil'jaeden's pomp and power were too frightening, so much so that Y'aal's heart jumped wildly. A voice told it that if it didn't dodge immediately, it would be smashed into mincemeat by the meteorite!
Y'aal was a sun god who believed in his intuition, and he cherished his life very much. It didn't want to die here, on the road to saving another brother.
Besides, it was better to have one death than two.
So Y'aal excitedly issued an order: "Stop the spell, Vel'koz'zoth! We retreat!"
"Sorry, I can't do that."
The one who answered the purple sun god was a cold and ruthless voice.
Not only did Vel'koz'zoth not stop releasing the Disintegrate Beam, but it suddenly launched an attack, and three tentacles plunged into Y'aal's body, frantically extracting its essence and power.
The 'Eye of C'Thun,' which had been swallowing its anger for more than a year, finally launched its attack!
'My first experimental specimen is almost in hand!'
Vel'koz'zoth glanced at K'in at the other end of the Disintegrate Beam and added in his heart, "Two!"
As for Xia, who was dying—I'm afraid it would be difficult to find even a slightly larger piece of the guy's body, which was destined to be completely destroyed by the rules, to use for research.
"Wh-why?" Y'aal almost stammered. Its slow-reacting brain hadn't even realized that Vel'koz'zoth had betrayed it—in fact, this guy had no good intentions when he came to its side. It had never truly been loyal to Y'aal, and the only object of its loyalty was one person—His Excellency Aiden, the leader of Valoran!
"Unlocking K'in's seal will cause us to be hit! We can't control K'in, let's retreat quickly, hurry up!" Y'aal thought that Vel'koz'zoth's initiative to extract its essence was to rescue K'in faster.
It was still too naive.
"Because I need experimental materials...and power!" Vel'koz'zoth replied with a cold attitude.
"Materials? Power?" Y'aal was stunned for a moment before suddenly shouting, "You betrayed me? You are a traitor!"
"Correct answer." Vel'koz'zoth's tentacles pierced even deeper, and Y'aal even groaned in pain.
The purple sun god only felt boundless anger. It was ready to burn this damn traitor to death directly, but when it wanted to mobilize its power, it realized that it couldn't control its body!
"Wh-what's going on?" Y'aal asked in horror.
"I used electromagnetic waves to interfere with your nerves. Thank you for your trust all along, which allowed me to figure out your body." Vel'koz'zoth replied ruthlessly.
It retracted the Disintegrate Beam and controlled Y'aal to rotate slowly, so that it could hide under the other party's body. The purpose was very clear: to let Y'aal use the other side of its body to withstand Kil'jaeden and the meteorite spell.
K'in's seal was only a little bit away from being lifted, but at this final moment, it was just a tiny bit of power short.
Before the seal was lifted, K'in couldn't communicate with his other brothers at all. In the current situation, it also tried its best to dodge, and for this reason, it had to desperately use its accumulated power to forcibly break into the seal.
And just as the seal was broken, Kil'jaeden had already crashed into it.
When Gohr turned its head, it happened to see Kil'jaeden making a throwing motion at an altitude of one kilometer from Y'aal and K'in, smashing a giant meteorite that was countless times larger than his body towards the two ancient gods.
K'in was its main target, because according to Sargeras's original plan, he only needed to be able to severely damage K'in—even without destroying it.
What Sargeras wanted was to prevent the four ancient gods from reuniting and being unable to combine into one. Now, his and Aiden's 'perfect cooperation' had completely dispelled this possibility, and it didn't matter whether Kil'jaeden succeeded or not. Of course, it would be even better to severely injure or kill K'in.
Under the influence of gravitational acceleration, this giant meteorite could reach its destination in less than a second.
And that was indeed the case.
At this time, K'in had just broken free from the seal and had no time to escape at all. Moreover, even if it could, with its size dozens of times larger than this meteorite, it would be difficult to avoid the impact of the meteorite.
Kil'jaeden's timing was just right, not a minute too early, not a minute too late.
Without the obstruction of the Titan seal, K'in had to use its own body to withstand this impact!
Gohr in the distance saw the meteorite hit K'in's body hard, and half a second later, it passed through its body and drilled out from below. If it was just penetrating damage, it wouldn't be unacceptable, but even without considering the damage caused by the fel energy left behind by the meteorite, this meteorite bombardment also had a second effect—
It exploded!
Just after penetrating K'in's body, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from below the body of the weakest of the four sun god brothers. Then, a white-green shock wave spread out from near the point of explosion, engulfing not only K'in, but also Y'aal next to it.
"No, no!" Gohr roared in preparation.
How could the plot be like this?!
Shouldn't it and Y'aal release Xia and K'in respectively, and then the four brothers appear in the sky at the same time, so that Silithus will never have night again?
Shouldn't it be that their four brothers reunite, and then their servants kill all those in the world who dare to be enemies with them, whether they are followers of Raal or demons?
Shouldn't it be that the four gods combine to kill the moon god Raal, and then use the imaginary energy release device she controls to make their brothers incomparably powerful, and finally even counterattack the Pantheon, bringing the gaze of judgment to all universes?
The smooth sailing of the past twenty-four hours had relaxed Gohr's vigilance, to the point that it was indulging in blind self-confidence and fantasy about the future, and the cruel reality gave it an incomparably huge blow.
In this short moment, its dream, the sun gods' dream, and even the dream of all the ancient gods, had been shattered.
When the light waves of the explosion had not completely disappeared, a purple sun whose light had dimmed to the limit fell from the sky.
That was Y'aal, its dumbest brother.
It wasn't dead yet, but it was seriously injured.
And although the aftermath of the explosion had not completely passed, Gohr clearly sensed that 'K'in' was dead, just like 'Xia' behind it.
Originally, it and Y'aal came to release these two brothers, but they never expected to witness their funeral.
The fall of two suns!
Even during the War of the Ancients, when they fought against the Pantheon and Raal, they had never suffered such heavy losses!
And the culprits of all this were the two humans in front of it!
Gohr spewed out dark ink-like flames, and roared heart-wrenchingly: "I want you—to die!"
