What was the Red Sea Egg?
There had never been an answer to this question. Although it was once thought to be the embryo of a special species hatched by the Mad Queen Lilith, no one could say for sure whether Lilith herself had created the Red Sea Egg or not.
The only thing that was certain was that when the Red Sea Egg first appeared, it was in Lilith's possession.
Ever since angels and demons discovered this world and started a war in it, both sides had suffered great losses because of the war. In order to deal with this protracted war, Heaven had developed and created artificial angels. These artificial angels effectively made up for the lack of troops on Heaven's side. After discovering the appearance of artificial angels, the demons naturally had to find ways to expand their army.
Therefore, the Mad Queen Lilith took over this matter … After an unknown period of time, the nephilim were born in her hands.
As soon as the nephilim appeared, they immediately became the third largest race between angels and demons. In fact, it was not wrong to regard them as the first generation of humans. At first, the nephilim stood on the side of demons because of their 'mother', Lilith. Their bloodthirsty and warlike personalities were exactly the same as demons, and they relied on their powerful strength to help demons defeat angels.
However, as time passed, when the nephilim discovered that they were not only stronger than angels but also stronger than the demons who created them, they gradually began to have thoughts of leaving the control of demons.
Due to the small number of their race, they were actually very united, and they quickly reached an agreement. In a war, the nephilim collectively rebelled. They killed all the demons supervising the battle, snatched the Red Sea Egg, and fled to a separate alternate space, intending to reproduce there.
However, this move made them stand on the opposite side of angels and demons at the same time. Angels valued their bloodlines more than demons, and it could be said that they abhorred the hybrids of angels and demons like the nephilim. The feelings of demons toward the nephilim were also very complicated. It was out of worship of the strong and strength, anger at the staining of demon bloodlines, and hatred for traitors.
So in the end, the nephilim became a race cursed by both angels and demons …
The demons wanted to take back the Red Sea Egg more than once, and so did the angels. They wanted to destroy the Red Sea Egg. But as an important tool for the nephilim to reproduce, the Red Sea Egg had always been heavily guarded by the nephilim.
Of course, it was extremely dangerous to place the key to the survival of a race on an item, so the nephilim were also searching for a new way to reproduce. Later, they did find it. This was why there were two generations of nephilim: the first generation and the second generation. Without exception, the first generation nephilim were born from the Red Sea Egg and were the strongest. The second generation nephilim reproduced through natural methods and were weaker than the first generation nephilim.
Because of the appearance of special creations like the nephilim, Lilith's name was known by thousands of races, and she had always been regarded as the mother of the nephilim.
As time passed, the Charred Council recruited the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Of course, the Charred Council also realized that it was absolutely unrealistic to recruit all the nephilim. In addition to the uncontrollable nature of the nephilim, they were also worried that recruiting all the nephilim would attract the joint attack of angels and demons … So in fact, there were probably many secrets behind the matter of the Four Horsemen slaughtering their own people and becoming subordinates of the council …
In any case, only the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse remained in the nephilim race, so the council naturally took the Red Sea Egg, which gave birth to the nephilim.
The Charred Council also had its own ambitions. It was not enough to rely on the strength of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse alone, so it wanted a powerful army to suppress angels and demons. The Red Sea Egg naturally became the best way for them to create a powerful army.
However, facts proved that if they did not know how to operate the Red Sea Egg, it was impossible to create a powerful and balanced race that could reproduce like Lilith! The Charred Council's experiments on the Red Sea Egg lasted for thousands of years, but they all failed without exception! The creatures created were either deformed, had no intelligence, or were special individuals that did not have the qualifications to reproduce at all.
This made them realize that when Lilith created the nephilim, she might have used some unknown special method, and they could not find out about this method at all. Among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, only Death, the only surviving first-generation nephilim, knew something, but it was absolutely impossible for him to tell the council … So as time went on, the Charred Council regretted slaughtering the nephilim too quickly, and their patience gradually disappeared. Finally, they thought of a way to throw the Red Sea Egg on the battlefield of angels and demons and let it produce naturally to see if they could run into good luck …
Of course, this kind of gambling on probability would not have a good outcome. Logically speaking, after such a long time, the Charred Council should not have taken the Red Sea Egg to heart. The success rate of Roy stealing the Red Sea Egg should have been very high. But why did the Charred Council make such a big fuss and get a councilor to take action after discovering the abnormalities in the location of the Red Sea Egg?
It had to be known that even when Envy attacked their statues, they still did not show up …
This was actually because after obtaining the Red Sea Egg, the Charred Council did not hesitate to collect information about the Red Sea Egg everywhere in order to find the method to use it. According to this information, they discovered an incredible truth!
This truth was that the Mad Queen Lilith might only be the first owner of the Red Sea Egg, not the creator! The appearance of the Red Sea Egg could be traced back to when the Abyss first appeared!
What did this mean? It meant that this Red Sea Egg was very likely a 'Relic of the Creator'! It was a legendary relic of the Creator!
The Charred Council started in the name of the Creator, so how could it not attach importance to it? After thinking about the characteristics of the Red Sea Egg, the Charred Council even suspected that the Red Sea Egg was very likely what the Creator used to create the angels and demons!
Although there was no definite evidence for this suspicion and it was only a suspicion, it made the Charred Council attach great importance to it. They placed the Red Sea Egg on the battlefield ruins only because they could not use it, but it did not mean that the council wanted to lose it. This was the real reason why Raphael's incarnation rushed to the scene to stop Roy's theft …
… …
Because Roy had cut off all the roots, the Red Sea Egg could not obtain nutrients through the roots, so it was shrinking toward the seed and preparing to hibernate.
However, when Raphael cut open Roy's body and his demon blood sprayed out and landed on the ground, the Red Sea Egg immediately sensed it.
Instinctively, the Red Sea Egg was unwilling to enter a dormant state. It had the characteristics of plants, and it would produce some stress responses to changes in the environment. On this battlefield, it had not absorbed fresh flesh and blood for a long time, so its main body hurriedly rushed out to eat Roy's body the moment Roy fell to the ground, intending to absorb nutrients to remove its dormant state and take root again.
Under normal circumstances, the Red Sea Egg absorbed nutrients through its roots, but now that the roots were broken, it could only use another method to eat, which was to devour directly like a man-eating flower.
Raphael also sensed this situation and thought that Roy was dead for sure, so he left. But what he did not know was that after swallowing Roy into the flower bud, the Red Sea Egg initially planned to digest Roy's body to replenish its nutrients.
However, just as the Red Sea Egg was gradually secreting digestive fluid, it sensed an inexplicable aura coming from Roy's body. In an instant, the secretion of the Red Sea Egg's digestive fluid immediately stopped, and the acid that had already been secreted quickly subsided, turning into a warm new liquid that was secreted.
As a result, Roy's body was soaked in this warm liquid, and his recovery and regeneration actually accelerated. His skin, which had been melted by the holy light, rapidly proliferated at a high speed visible to the naked eye, gradually covering Roy's tendons and bones.
However, because Raphael had cut Roy's body into two at the waist, the two halves of his body did not come together after being swallowed by the Red Sea Egg, causing the broken parts of his body to be unable to glue back together.
As a result, a strange phenomenon soon appeared. As time passed, new lower limbs gradually grew from Roy's upper body below his waist, and a new upper body gradually grew from the lower half of his body!
In other words, two identical Demon Roys were gradually taking shape!
This change could not be seen from the outside at all, but as the liquid secreted, the Red Sea Egg became more and more dispirited. It seemed that the secretion of this powerful healing liquid was rapidly consuming the remaining energy of the Red Sea Egg. Perhaps if it was not careful, this healing process would be completely interrupted.
Seeing that the Red Sea Egg was shrinking smaller and smaller, a ball of light suddenly jumped out of the unconscious Roy's palm.
It was … a soul ball!
While Roy was unconscious, the system used the souls stored in Roy's space to save the situation!
Not only could the Red Sea Egg absorb flesh and blood as nutrients, but it could also absorb soul energy as nutrients. After all, the creatures it created needed to be endowed with souls. Where did these souls come from? Weren't they absorbed by the Red Sea Egg?
As soon as this soul ball appeared, it quickly turned into light spots and dissipated, absorbed by the inner wall of the Red Sea Egg. This immediately refreshed the Red Sea Egg.
Then, one after another, soul orbs were released from Roy's palm and absorbed by the Red Sea Egg one by one. Not only did this stop the Red Sea Egg from shrinking, but it gradually became spirited, and more and more healing liquid was secreting inside it …
