After seeing the roots of the Red Sea Egg wrap around the insect egg fossils, Roy thought that it was indeed the case.
Beelzebub was known as the King of the Flies, so the insect eggs he left behind would most likely hatch into giant flies. But unfortunately, he did not know if it was because Beelzebub did not give these insect eggs the order to hatch when he left, causing them to maintain the appearance of eggs for a long time without hatching. Now, not only were these insect eggs gradually petrifying, but the magic power contained in them was almost exhausted.
But almost exhausted meant that there was still a little left. Millions of insect eggs added up, and this amount of magic power was not a small number.
Beelzebub was a big shot, so it was a waste of magic power, and he would not feel the pinch. But to Roy, he could use the magic power here. This was the best fertilizer he needed to plant the Red Sea Egg.
The Red Sea Egg could be said to be a kind of gene editor with very powerful functions. But correspondingly, in order to make it work, he needed to provide it with enough energy, either magic power or blood food. In short, he needed to be able to provide it with nutrition. In fact, Roy was still a little worried about where to find so much fertilizer for the Red Sea Egg. If it really did not work, he could only provide magic power himself, but he did not expect to find so many fly eggs deep underground.
If he could not make use of this, it would have been a wasted trip.
The flesh and blood roots of the Red Sea Egg spread to these insect eggs, and a large number of radial roots wrapped around them. Under Roy and Benia's gazes, these insect eggs gradually could no longer maintain their shape. The insect eggs that had their energy absorbed finally turned into stone, shattered under the heavy pressure, and finally turned into gravel.
The flower bud of the Red Sea Egg was rapidly growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this scene, Benia asked Roy in fear, "This thing … This is an insect egg left behind by Demon King Beelzebub. Is it really okay for this thing to eat it just like that?"
Roy looked at her and smiled. "What problem can there be? Don't forget, even a low-level demon like Blackie dares to eat insect eggs. Are you still worried that Beelzebub will come? "
After a pause, Roy continued, "To be honest, I was a little worried at the beginning. Beelzebub's shell should have been placed in an alternate space by himself. I guess he might have wanted to preserve it and keep it as a clone or something. After all, this shell has a large amount of magic power sealed in it. With a little modification, it will become a powerful clone … But now, as you can see, even the insect eggs are about to turn into fossils. It means that too long has passed, and Beelzebub probably forgot about this."
"Okay, I hope it's as you say …" Benia heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Roy's answer. Although she had suggested that Roy find a way to find the enlightenment to become a demon king from Beelzebub's shell, and this idea was certainly very exciting, she was a little nervous after seeing Roy really take action.
After all, she was only a high-rank Demon. To her, the Demon King level was too high.
Roy waited quietly for the Red Sea Egg to grow, but his mind was filled with thoughts.
Beelzebub's shell contained high-quality magic power at the demon king level. Just the aura of this level of magic power made Roy's heart palpitate and terrifying. But after sensing it with his own hands just now, the total amount of magic power contained in the shell was strictly not much. Perhaps it was because storing it in an alternate space could not stop the magic power from dissipating. The magic power contained in this shell was about the same as Roy's current one. In terms of numbers, it was estimated to be between 80,000 and 100,000.
Of course, this was already very terrifying. It had to be known that this was only an empty shell left behind by Beelzebub, but it was as powerful as a demon lord. Roy could not imagine how powerful a demon king was!
If the Demon Lord belongs to the Demigod level, then the Demon King level should be the true God, right?
"Who do you think is stronger, Beelzebub's main body or Urgash?" Roy suddenly asked Benia.
Hearing this question, Benia was stunned. When she left the world of Ashan, she was one of the witnesses who saw Urgash escape with her own eyes, so she naturally knew about the powerful majesty when Urgash appeared. But she really could not say for a sudden comparison.
After thinking about it, Benia shook her head. "I really don't know. After all, Urgash isn't a demon born and raised in the Abyss. The nature of his power should be different from that of demons, so it's very difficult to compare. Moreover, the main body you mentioned … should be his Deadly Sin Demon King-level main body. That level is already beyond my imagination … If you really want me to say, then I'll bet on Beelzebub. I think he's stronger."
"Oh, why?" Roy asked with interest. "Urgash is a Dragon of Creation. Can't he compare to Beelzebub?"
"It's different!" Benia shook her head. "Although Urgash is a Dragon of Creation and a god, I feel that he's like a fish in a fish tank. No matter how much he tosses and turns, he's only in the world of Ashan. In other worlds, no one has heard of his name. On the contrary, the name of Beelzebub is widely spread in many worlds."
"That makes sense …" Roy rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "But have you thought about it? Although the Abyss has always had a saying about Deadly Sin Demon Kings, I've already encountered two demon kings, Samuel and Lilith, and now Beelzebub. They give me the feeling that they should be at the demon king level, so I've always thought that they're their clones. Does the true Deadly Sin Demon King still exist?"
In the myths and legends of humans and even the various races, there were stories about the Seven Lords of Hell. They were Lucifer who represented arrogance, Leviathan who represented envy, Samael who represented wrath, Beelzebub who represented gluttony, Berial who represented sloth, Mammon who represented greed, and Asmuntis who represented lust. People called the Seven Lords of Hell the Seven Demon Kings.
But in fact, in the Abyss of Hell, there were not only the seven of them who were called demon kings. In addition to them, Queen Lilith of the Red Sea was also a demon king.
This was not a joke like there were five of the Four Heavenly Kings and eight of the Seven Demon Kings. Not only was there Lilith, but there were also more famous demon kings such as Baal, Belle, Mephistos, and so on. Roy had even heard the name of Diablo from the conversations of some high-rank demons!
In the Abyss, demons generally acknowledged that there were actually thirteen demon kings. Lucifer, Leviathan, and the other six demon kings were the strongest Deadly Sin level among the thirteen demon kings. They were the rulers that had existed since the birth of the Abyss of Hell, and Baal and Mephistos were only demon kings who had advanced later.
In order to distinguish these thirteen demon kings, there were two levels in the Abyss: demon king and Deadly Sin Demon King.
Benia actually said a lot. She could not imagine what level of power a Deadly Sin Demon King had. Not only her, but it could be said that 99.99% of the demons in the entire Abyss had never seen a Deadly Sin Demon King with their own eyes. Just like how Roy had encountered Samael when he entered the Darksiders world, demons would occasionally encounter the Seven Demon Kings of Hell when they went to other worlds.
From this, it could be seen that the Seven Demon Kings existed in multiple worlds at the same time!
The reason was very simple. It was impossible for the demons to encounter the true bodies of the Seven Demon Kings. They were just clones of the Seven Demon Kings.
Apart from marveling at the fact that even their clones were at the demon king level, the demons could only worship the Seven Demon Kings even more fervently. They could not imagine how terrifying and powerful these demon king-level clones would be once they returned to their main bodies and fused with their main bodies!
Therefore, it was reasonable for Benia to think that the Deadly Sin Demon Kings were stronger than Urgash because this title represented the pinnacle of demons!
When any demon encountered the clones of the Seven Demon Kings, they would unconditionally obey the orders of their clones. They would not even frown when going up a mountain of swords and into a sea of flames, just like fanatics.
Of course, there were also a few very calm and rational demons like Roy. After experiencing more worlds, they would have the same doubts as Roy. Why are there so many clones of demon kings? These clones have such powerful strength and intelligence. Will they really be willing to return to their main bodies one day and become a part of their main bodies again?
There was no doubt that the split soul fragments could also produce their own thoughts. Roy had already discovered a rather strange phenomenon. In order to strengthen their ability to prey on souls, low-level demons would use soul fragments to create clones without any scruples. Similarly, the demon kings standing at the top also had clones. On the contrary, from high-rank demons to demon lords, it was rare to see clones.
At least, the few demon lords Roy had come into contact with did not do this …
Why was this happening? It was definitely because the demon lords had realized the drawbacks and did not dare to act rashly. There was no need to care about the low-level demons who used clones indiscriminately, but the demon lords seemed to be holding a wait-and-see attitude toward the clones of the demon kings, wanting to see how the demon kings would solve this problem in the end.
Moreover, not only was the Abyss of Hell facing this problem, but even Heaven was also facing this problem. The top-level Archangels, such as Gabriel and Raphael, also had the habit of using clones, but the strength of these clones seemed to be about the same as Samael and the others. According to this logic, Archangels should also have a level corresponding to the Deadly Sin Demon Kings.
What could it be? A twelve-winged angel? It seems to have been vaguely mentioned in some ancient legends …
Roy's imagination ran wild. After an unknown period of time, the Red Sea Egg finally absorbed most of the insect egg fossils, and a dull heartlike rhythm came from the enormous flower bud again.
