Chapter 196 Failed Products and Guards
Roy did not rashly touch the Red Sea Egg and merely observed it from nearby.
This was the Red Sea Egg, an important item for the creation of nephilim. Since the Charred Council had the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse kill their compatriots with their own hands when it recruited the Four Horsemen, it meant that it was wary of the nephilim. However, the council had not stored the Red Sea Egg on its own but placed it on an ancient battlefield instead. What did this mean?
It meant that the Charred Council seemed to want to use the Red Sea Egg to do something!
Thinking of this, Roy could not help but curse silently. This Charred Council was really acting one way in public and another in private. It seemed to be maintaining the balance under the banner of the Creator but secretly had unclear ambitions…
Although he had found his mission item, Roy did not relax. Instead, he became more vigilant.
The council must have placed the Red Sea Egg here to attempt something, but now, the egg looked withered. It was probably because the council’s experiments had failed. It could not control the Red Sea Egg and could not achieve what it wanted. However… after its failure, not only did it not seal the egg, but it left it here. Was the council too careless, or did it think that no one could take the Red Sea Egg from here?
If it was the former, then it was fine. But if it was the latter, then there might be guards dedicated to protecting 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 slight chill down his spine. He felt that if there were any guards here, they might be hiding under these bones and corpses, or maybe even… be these corpses!
Although Roy’s demon blood could create liches, it was actually due to the characteristics of his bloodline. It was not true necromancy. If the angels and demon corpses on this battlefield really became undead and stood up, Roy would immediately fall into the sea of an undead army and be unable to escape.
Therefore, the question was, how should he take away this Red Sea Egg?
Roy knew that Envy killing her way into the council and his undead army and low-level demons used for distraction might be able to buy him time, but this time would not be too long. He had to make a decision as soon as possible. Regardless, since Roy wanted to take the Red Sea Egg, he might alarm the guards, but he did not have any means to dig the Red Sea Egg quietly, so he could only use force!
The Red Sea Egg was huge. Even though it looked a little withered now, it was still as tall as a three-story building. Roy could not hug it with both hands, so he could only make a large number of chains through the system and weave them into a net. Then, starting from the bottom of the Red Sea Egg, he bound it in the chains firmly.
After all of this was prepared, Roy spread his wings and flew into the sky. He came to the top of the Red Sea Egg, grabbed the chain that looked like a bag, and began to exert his strength to pull out the Red Sea Egg!
Although Roy’s strength was not high, after becoming a high-rank, his strength had exceeded 150. When he began to exert force, the Red Sea Egg below made creaking sounds, and the soil, which was burying the roots and had not moved for a long time, was immediately churned up.
Roy pulled the Red Sea Egg up a distance, but then, no matter how hard he tried, the egg did not move much.
Roy knew that it would be troublesome now. He did not know how long the Red Sea Egg had been left in this ancient battlefield, but since it had plant characteristics, it would spare no effort to find ways to absorb nutrients. If the nutrients nearby were sucked dry, the roots would spread farther away. Roy suspected that the roots of the Red Sea Egg had probably covered the entire ancient battlefield!
F*ck, it’s a radius of a few kilometers. How much strength is needed to pull out such a large network of roots?!
The trouble did not stop here. After this ‘big carrot’ was pulled out some distance, the Red Sea Egg, which had entered a dormant state due to the depletion of nutrients, gradually woke up. It seemed to sense that it was being pulled out of the ground, so it began to shake and resist, increasing the resistance on Roy’s hands.
“This damn thing!” Roy clenched his teeth and continued to exert force. The muscles on his arms bulged as he competed with the Red Sea Egg.
But after a while, Roy found that it was impossible to do this, so he gritted his teeth, let go with one hand, and summoned Frostmourne from the system space. With a violent swing, an arc-shaped ice blade slashed at the rhizome of the Red Sea Egg!
Roy did not want to do this at first because he knew that it could hurt the Red Sea Egg, even though cutting off the roots would help him pull it out. If the egg died because of this, what would he do if Lilith refused to accept it?
Furthermore, Roy might also use this Red Sea Egg… Therefore, he had to think of a way to ensure its survival.
The roots of the Red Sea Egg were unexpectedly tough. This sharp ice blade only cut halfway into the root that it hit. After being injured, the root sprayed out a large amount of purple liquid, which looked like demon blood, from the wound.
At the same time, the Red Sea Egg struggled even more crazily. This thing was not conscious at all, it was only survival instinct. The damage to its roots was equivalent to threatening its life, so it began to think of ways to fight back.
Its bud began to bulge, and a high-frequency sound that ordinary people could not hear instantly spread throughout the ancient battlefield.
The next moment, rumbling sounds came from the ground in the distance. The soil stirred, and pale skeleton arms stretched out from the ground. These arms supported themselves on the ground and dragged their bodies out of the ground.
Roy’s guess was right. There were indeed guards placed here, but it was not what Roy thought. It was not an undead army of countless angels and demons but… hundreds of strangely-shaped skeletons!
These strange skeletons were very large, and each of them was at least five to six meters tall. But the strange thing was that some of these tall skeletons had four legs, some had four arms, and some had two skulls. There were also demon horns on some skulls and densely-packed, sharp long fangs. Roy did not know what these skeletons looked like when they were alive, but judging from their appearances, they were probably some strange creatures.
However, there was something in common! Behind these skeletons were a pair of bare 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 was the wing bones of angel wings! Very easy to recognize.
Needless to say, Roy immediately understood what these skeletons were. It was very likely they were half-demon half-angel creatures created by the Charred Council after leaving the Red Sea Egg in the ancient battlefield! However, looking at the strange appearances of these skeletons, Roy realized that they were probably just failed products. The council could not create beings like the nephilim. After all, it was not Lilith, and it probably knew little about how to use the Red Sea Egg. When the council discovered that the function of the Red Sea Egg was not as useful as it had imagined, it just abandoned the egg and the failures here…
However, these failed creatures born from the Red Sea Egg eventually became guards of the egg because, to them, the Red Sea Egg was their mother. When their mother encountered danger, they would help their mother solve the threat…
After climbing out of the ground, these strange skeletons picked up the damaged and rusted weapons on the battlefield and rushed toward the Red Sea Egg.
Roy initially thought that even though they looked strange, a group of bones should not pose much of a threat. But what Roy did not expect was that a longsword flying at him from afar was moving so fast that it broke the sound barrier, making an explosive whistling sound. When it flew past Roy’s face, it actually created sparks on his Cold Winter Armor’s helmet!
F*ck! These skeletons are so strong?!

Roy was surprised, but he understood what was going on. Damn it. Regardless of whether they’re failed products or not, these skeletons are all creatures born from fusing the bloodlines of angels and demons. How is it possible to treat them like ordinary human skeleton soldiers?
It was not only just their strength. When they were about to approach, some skeletons even flew toward Roy! The bare wing bones on their backs did not look like they could fly, but they were flying because these skeletons had powerful magic power auras. They were magical undead creatures similar to skeleton mages!
Some skeletons stopped on the ground, and their magic power rumbled. Some spat huge pillars of fire at Roy from in the air, while others shot dark corrosive arrows at Roy. And what was even more ridiculous was that some skeletons actually condensed golden swords of holy light that came piercing down at Roy’s head!
Did you dare to believe that skeletons could use holy light?!
These skeletons could not be judged by common sense at all. Roy was in a dilemma and beginning to become flustered. He had no choice but to give up competing with the Red Sea Egg for now and free up his hands to focus on dealing with these strange undead skeletons…
