Hawbon Stoic and his team members could never imagine that it was an egg instead of a meteorite that fell from the sky along with the lightning bolt!
A huge golden egg that they had never seen before!
Above the giant golden egg, there was a faint golden brilliance circulating.
'Is this a plot of demons?'
In a split second, Hawbon Stoic, as a commissioned officer of the royal corps of Aoto Empire, thought about it instinctively. However, on a second thought, Hawbon Stoic felt something was wrong. Because he had not heard that a demon would show up in this way. Additionally, this huge egg seemed to be related to the weird purple lightning bolt. Even a demon knight couldn't have such a great ability. Even if a demon knight had such a great ability, was it necessary for a demon knight to make fun of him and his subordinates who were low-level small fries on the battlefield?
"Watch out, stay alert …" Hawbon Stoic warned his team members in a low voice as he took out his weapon and walked towards that huge egg at the bottom of the huge pit meticulously while stepping on the hot ground which was steaming with the steam of rainwater.
If commoners encountered such dangers and weird things, of course, they could turn around and escape; however, it was on the battlefield. As a fighter and a military officer, Hawbon Stoic had no choice but to retreat; because they were facing dangers. If he retreated the moment he caught sight of this weird huge egg, as long as this event was passed to his superiors, he and his team members might be sentenced to military trial for desertion and the bloody guillotine in the end; instead of being rewarded, Hawbon Stoic and his team members might be sentenced to death by a bloody guillotine in the end.
Under the gaze of his team members, Hawbon Stoic came to the bottom of the huge pit meticulously.
Only when he was 2 m away from the huge egg, Hawbon Stoic had sensed the rolling heat waves and high temperature from the huge golden egg.
The huge golden egg was like a piece of dark-red iron embryo which had just been molded by boiling molten steel in the workshop of the factory. When the raindrops fell onto the eggshell of the huge egg, they would constantly give off a sizzling sound. All the raindrops would evaporate and turn into misty vapor the moment they fell onto the surface of the huge egg.
The rainwater above the huge pit constantly flowed down. In the blink of an eye, the melting ground at the bottom of the huge pit dropped in temperature. Meanwhile, misty steam poured out of the huge pit and became increasingly denser. When Hawbon Stoic reached the bottom of the huge pit, his subordinates who were standing outside the huge pit couldn't see him clearly at all from less than 10 m away.
"Captain, are you alright …" A voice drifted from the top of the huge pit.
"I'm fine. Watch out …"
At the same time, the temperature of the huge egg was decreasing rapidly. The scorching heatwave was fading away rapidly. When Hawbon Stoic was about 1 m away from the huge egg, he stretched out his long sword and slightly touched the eggshell with the blade of his sword.
The sound and touch from the body of his sword made Hawbon Stoic feel that he was touching a piece of metal.
When Hawbon Stoic wanted to check it further …
"Crack …"
A fist punched out of the huge egg, breaking the top of the huge golden egg. When the eggshell was broken, some bizarre runes flashed across the surface of the huge egg. Closely after that, a bizarre and powerful force field spread out of the huge egg, covering hundreds of square meters of space around the huge pit at a stroke.
Hawbon Stoic and his team members were completely frozen at a stroke, including the rolling steam. Even the raindrops were suspended in the air weirdly at this moment.
At this moment, nothing could move in the space outside the eggshell.
After a few seconds, another fist punched out of the other side of the eggshell. In the following half a minute, the entire eggshell was completely broken on the ground. Closely after that, the broken eggshell gradually turned into four elements and disappeared, leaving no trace at all. At the same time, a naked person appeared in the world inside the eggshell.
Panting heavily, Zhang Tie strode out of the eggshell. When he broke out of the eggshell just now, he felt weak and weak. At this moment, he was like a new life or a bird that hatched out of the eggshell. He was in his weakest state.
Before the protective time of the secret skill "Confrontation" of "King Roc Sutra" disappeared, everything in the surroundings had been frozen by the powerful force field of the secret skill.
Zhang Tie raised his head and looked at the sky behind the two huge holes on the roof. At the same time, he revealed a wisp of brilliant smile on his fatigued and weak face. Facing the sky, he muttered, "No matter how powerful you are, I'm back now …"
Widely opening his eyes, Hawbon Stoic still maintained the posture of retreating rapidly. Pitifully, he was also frozen like a wax figure. Zhang Tie walked to Hawbon Stoic's side. After looking at him for a short while, he stretched out his hand and put it on Hawbon Stoic's forehead as he closed his eyes.
Only after a few seconds, Zhang Tie opened his eyes with a bit grief and pity flashing across his eyes.
When he read Hawbon Stoic's soul, Zhang Tie had known the identity of Hawbon Stoic. In case of causing irreparable damage to this loyal human fighter's head, Zhang Tie didn't read all the memories of this human fighter; instead, he just read part of Hawbon Stoic's experience and information in the past one year. However, such a small part of information had already caused a great shock to Zhang Tie.
It was already the 9332nd year of Black Iron Calendar, 42 years had passed since the holy war broke out …
This was Coldwater City on the Western Continent, the frontline between allied human forces and demons …
As of now, demons had already developed to a terrifying degree. With the support of demons, many puppet countries had been established on the Western Continent and some subcontinents. Humans were fighting human troops on many battlefields …
Over 1/3 of Taixia Country's territory had been occupied by demons. The entire western prefectures of Taixia Country had already become demons' territory …
During these years when Zhang Tie disappeared, after some accidents, the production technology of Fiery Oil had unavoidably been spread out and grasped by demons and Three-eye Association …
12 years ago, Crown Prince Changying was assassinated by a sage-level demon knight in Jinzhou Province, Taixia Country. As a result, Taixia Country was still leaderless. It was governed by three chancellors and nine ministers and six lords of Taixia Country in Xuanyuan Hill …
…
Zhang Tie didn't recover his composure for quite a while; especially the death of Xuanyuan Changying, which was completely out of Zhang Tie's imagination. When he recalled those scenes when he contacted with Xuanyuan Changying, Zhang Tie couldn't stand revealing a bit grief and pity.
The only thing that comforted Zhang Tie was that he didn't find any bad news about Jinwu Palace in Hawbon Stoic's memory. Jinwu Palace didn't decline; instead, it seemed to grow more and more powerful. Because the all-purpose medicament used by allied human forces across the Western Continent was produced by Jinwu Palace, the Rhesa Republic, the Barbarian Federation, the Francia Empire and the Sacred Light Empire in the Western Continent.
The production of all-purpose medicament still didn't spread!
The current situation facing the holy war and the overall situation facing Taixia Country was more complex than Zhang Tie's imagination. As for his current situation …
Various whims flashed across Zhang Tie's mind …
After taking a look at this commissioned officer of the royal corps of Aoto Empire on the Western Continent and the other team members above the huge pit, Zhang Tie made a decision in a split second.
…
Hawbon Stoic's memory was completely erased by Zhang Tie at a stroke …
Zhang Tie strode to the top of the huge pit. Closely after that, he turned around and touched the heads of the other team members one by one. Closely after that, he activated his invisible shen bead and disappeared in a split second …
…
10 seconds later, the last piece of the shell of the golden egg in the huge pit completely turned into four elements and dissipated. The raindrops fell down once again while the steam in the huge pit started to roll once again. Hawbon Stoic then moved backward rapidly and retreated to the outside of the huge pit.
"Captain, what's down there?"
"There's nothing down there. That lightning bolt is too strange. Let's leave here first …"
Hawbon Stoic felt a bit dizzy. He didn't know whether it was because of the residual power of that lightning bolt in this huge pit. However, as it caused too great a noise just now, he'd better leave here first. As for the mysterious relationship between that lightning bolt and this huge pit and whether it was related to some supernatural power, it was not something that he was interested in and would like to explore. As long as they were not afraid of death, they could just enter this huge pit …
Hawbon Stoic should consider how to survive himself and kill more enemies …
…
It was already late at night; however, the battle in Coldwater City was still continuing …
