Roy did not rashly touch the Red Sea Egg and only circled around nearby to observe.
This was the Red Sea Egg, an important item to create the nephilim. Since the Charred Council had the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse kill their compatriots with their own hands when they took in the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, it meant that they were wary of the nephilim. But now, the Red Sea Egg was not stored separately but placed on an ancient battlefield by the council. What did this mean?
It meant that the Charred Council seemed to want to use this Red Sea Egg to do something!
Thinking of this, Roy could not help but curse in his heart. The Charred Council really had one thing in public and another in private. It seemed to be maintaining balance under the banner of the Creator, but it secretly had inexplicable ambitions …
Although he had found his mission item, Roy did not heave a sigh of relief and instead became even more vigilant.
The council must have tried to do something by placing the Red Sea Egg here. But now, the Red Sea Egg looked withered. The council's experiment had probably failed. They could not control the Red Sea Egg and should not have been able to achieve their goal. But … after they failed, not only did they not seal the Red Sea Egg but instead left it here. Was this because they were careless, or did they think that no one could take the Red Sea Egg away from here?
If it was the former, it would be fine, but if it was the latter, then there might be some kind of guard specially used to protect the Red Sea Egg!
Roy looked at the endless corpses and bones around him. Even though he had seen many corpses, the ancient battlefield in front of him still made him feel a little panicky. He felt that if there were any guards here, they might be hiding under these bones and corpses, and even … they might be these corpses!
Although Roy's demon blood could create liches, this was actually only caused by the characteristics of his bloodline and not true undead magic. If the angel and demon corpses on this battlefield really turned into undead and stood up, then Roy would instantly fall into the sea of undead and find it difficult to escape.
Therefore, the question was, how should he take this Red Sea Egg away?
Roy knew that Envy, who had killed his way into the council, and the undead army and low-level demons he had used to distract him might be able to buy him time, but this time would not last long. He had to make a decision as soon as possible.
Forget it. Since he wanted to take away the Red Sea Egg, it might alarm the guards. But he did not have any means to quietly dig away the Red Sea Egg, so he could only use force!
The Red Sea Egg was enormous. Even though it looked a little withered now, it was still as tall as a three-story building. He could not carry it with both hands, so he could only use the system to make a large number of chains and weave them into a net. Then starting from the bottom of the Red Sea Egg, he wrapped the chains around it and locked it firmly.
After all of this was ready, Roy spread his wings and flew into the sky. He came to the top of the Red Sea Egg, pulled the chain that looked like a bag, and began to exert his strength to pull out the Red Sea Egg!
Although his strength was not his forte, after promoting to high-rank demon, Roy's strength value had exceeded 150 points. When he began to exert his strength, the Red Sea Egg below made cracking sounds, and the soil buried at the roots that had not been stirred for a long time immediately rolled up.
The Red Sea Egg was pulled up a distance, but no matter how hard Roy tried, it did not move much.
Roy knew that he was in trouble. He did not know how long the Red Sea Egg had been left in this ancient battlefield, but since it had the characteristics of plants, it would spare no effort to find ways to absorb nutrients. After absorbing all the nutrients nearby, it would spread its roots further. Roy suspected that the roots of the Red Sea Egg had probably covered the entire ancient battlefield!
F * ck, it's a few kilometers in radius. How much strength does it take to pull out such a massive net of roots?!
The trouble was not just this. After this' big radish 'was pulled out for a distance, the Red Sea Egg, which had to enter a dormant state due to the exhaustion of nutrients, gradually woke up. It seemed to sense that it was being pulled out of the ground, so it began to sway and resist. The resistance from Roy's hand increased again.
"This damn thing!" Roy gritted his teeth and continued to exert his strength. The muscles on his arms bulged as he competed with the Red Sea Egg.
However, after a while, Roy found that this would not work at all, so he gritted his teeth, freed one hand, and summoned Frostmourne from the system space. With a swing of his hand, an arc-shaped ice blade flew out and slashed at a section of the Red Sea Egg's roots!
At first, Roy did not want to do this because he knew that although cutting the roots would allow him to pull out the Red Sea Egg, it might also injure the egg. If the egg died because of this, what if Lilith refused to admit it?
Moreover, Roy might use this Red Sea Egg … So he had to think of a way to ensure the survival of the Red Sea Egg.
The roots of the Red Sea Egg were unexpectedly tough. This sharp ice blade only cut half of the root and did not completely cut it off. After being injured, the root sprayed out a large amount of purple liquid from the wound, looking like demon blood.
At the same time, the Red Sea Egg struggled even more crazily. This thing did not have any consciousness at all and only survived by instinct. The damage to its roots was equivalent to threatening its life, so it began to think of ways to fight back.
Its flower buds began to bulge, and a high-frequency sound that ordinary people could not hear came from the tympanic membrane inside, instantly spreading throughout the entire ancient battlefield.
In the next moment, a rumbling sound came from the ground in the distance. The soil was rolled up, and pale skeletal arms reached out from the ground. These arms first supported themselves on the ground, and then used the force to bring their bodies to the surface.
Roy's guess was right. The Red Sea Egg was indeed guarded here, but it was not the undead army of countless angels and demons as Roy had imagined, but … hundreds of strange skeletons of strange shapes!
These strange skeletons were enormous, and each one was at least five to six meters tall. But what was strange was that some of these tall skeletons had four feet, some had four arms, and some had two skulls. Some had demon horns on their skulls, dense gums, long, sharp teeth, and so on. Roy did not know what these skeletons looked like when they were alive, but judging from their skeletons, they were probably strange creatures.
However, if there was one thing in common, there was! On the backs of these skeletons were a pair of smooth wing bones!
These wing bones were not symmetrical, and Roy could easily distinguish them. One side was the wing bones of demon wings, and the other side was the wing bones of angel wings! It was very easy to recognize.
Needless to say, Roy immediately understood what these skeletons were. It was very likely that they were half-demon half-angel creatures created by the Charred Council after leaving the Red Sea Egg in this ancient battlefield!
However, looking at the strange appearance of these skeletons, Roy realized that these were probably just failed products. The council had not been able to create products like the nephilim. After all, they were not Lilith, and they probably did not know much about how to use the Red Sea Egg. When they found that the effect of the Red Sea Egg was not as useful to them as they had imagined, they threw the egg here and played the game of leaving it behind …
However, these failed creatures born from the Red Sea Egg eventually became the guardians of the Red Sea Egg. To them, the Red Sea Egg was their mother, and when the mother encountered danger, they would help the mother solve the threat …
After these strange skeletons crawled out of the ground, they casually picked up the broken and decaying weapons on the battlefield and rushed toward the Red Sea Egg.
Roy originally thought that even though they looked strange, a group of skeletons should not pose much of a threat. But what he did not expect was that a longsword flew toward him from afar. The speed of the longsword was so intense that it actually pierced through the sound barrier and made an explosion-like whistling sound. When it brushed past Roy's face, it actually drew a spark on his Cold Winter Armor's visor!
F * ck! These skeletons are so strong?!
While Roy was surprised, he also reacted. Damn it. Regardless of whether they were failed products or not, these skeletons were creatures that had fused with the bloodlines of angels and demons. How could he treat them like ordinary human skeleton soldiers?
It was not just a matter of strength. When he was about to approach, some skeletons even flew up and pounced at him! The smooth wing bones on their backs did not look like they could fly, but they did. The reason was that these skeletons still had a powerful magic power aura. They were actually magic undead creatures similar to skeleton mages!
Some skeletons stayed on the ground. As magic power surged, some of them spat out enormous pillars of fire at Roy in the air, and some shot dark arrows of corrosion at him. What was even more outrageous was that some skeletons actually condensed golden swords of light and stabbed them down from Roy's head!
Do you dare to believe skeletons that can use holy light?!
These skeletons could not be judged with common sense at all. At first, Roy was flustered and in a sorry state. He had no choice but to temporarily give up competing with the Red Sea Egg and free his hands to focus on dealing with these strange undead skeletons …
