Chapter 200 Legacy of the Creator

What was the Red Sea Egg?

This question had never been answered. Although it was once thought to be the Mad Queen Lilith’s embryo for breeding special species, no one knew whether Lilith had created the Red Sea Egg.

The only certainty was that Lilith held the Red Sea Egg when it first appeared.

Ever since angels and demons discovered this world and started fighting in it, both sides had suffered heavy losses due to the war. In order to deal with this prolonged war, Heaven developed and created artificial angels, and these artificial angels had effectively made up for the lack of troops on Heaven’s side. After the artificial angels appeared, the demons naturally had to think of ways to expand the army.

Therefore, the Mad Queen Lilith took over this matter… After some time, the nephilim were born in her hands.

As soon as the nephilim appeared, they immediately became the third-largest race after angels and demons. In fact, it was not wrong to think of them as first-generation humans. In the beginning, the nephilim stood on the demon’s side because of their ‘mother’, Lilith. Their bloodthirsty and warlike nature was exactly the same as that of demons, and they relied on their powerful strength to help the demons make the angels suffer defeat after defeat.

However, as time passed, the nephilim found that not only were they stronger than angels but also the demons who created them. Gradually, the nephilim began to have thoughts of leaving the demons’ control.

Due to there being very few nephilim, the race was actually very united, and they quickly reached an agreement. In a war, the nephilim rebelled collectively. They killed all the demons in the barrier troops, snatched the Red Sea Egg, and escaped to a separate alternate space, intending to live and multiply there.

But this move made them stand opposite the angels and demons at the same time. Angels valued their bloodlines more than demons, and they hated hybrid bloodlines of angel and demon like the nephilim. And demons had very complicated feelings for the nephilim. There was worship for the strong and strength, anger about the tainted demon bloodline, and hatred for the betrayal.

Thus, in the end, the nephilim became a race cursed by angels and demons…

The demons wanted to regain the Red Sea Egg more than once, and the angels wanted to destroy the Red Sea Egg. But as an important tool for the birth of the nephilim, the Red Sea Egg was always heavily guarded by them.

Of course, it was extremely dangerous to place the key to the survival of the race on an object, so the nephilim were also seeking a new way of reproducing, and they did indeed find one later. This was why there were two distinctions between the first and second generations of the nephilim. The first generation of nephilim was born from the Red Sea Egg without exception, and they were also the strongest. The second generation of nephilim was mostly born through natural means, and they were weaker than the first generation.

Due to the appearance of special creations like the nephilim, thousands of races knew Lilith’s name and had always regarded her as the mother of the nephilim.

With the passage of time, the Charred Council recruited the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Of course, the Charred Council also realized that it was absolutely impossible to recruit the entire race of nephilim. Apart from the uncontrollable nature of the nephilim, they were also worried that recruiting the entire race would attract the combined attack of the angels and demons… In fact, there was probably a lot of hidden information about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse slaughtering their own people and becoming subordinates of the council…

In any case, only the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse remained of the nephilim race in the end, so the council naturally took the Red Sea Egg that gave birth to the nephilim.

The Charred Council also had their own ambitions. The strength of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse alone was insufficient, so they also wanted a powerful army to suppress the angels and demons. And the Red Sea Egg naturally became the best way for them to create that army.

However, reality proved that if you did not know how to operate the Red Sea Egg, it was impossible to create a powerful and balanced race that could reproduce, such as Lilith had! The Charred Council’s experiments with the Red Sea Egg lasted for more than a thousand years, but all of them failed without exception! The creatures created were either deformed, had no intelligence, or were special individuals that did not possess the ability to reproduce.

This made the council realize that Lilith might have used some unknown special method when she created the nephilim, and this method was something that they could not find out at all. Among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, only Death, the only surviving first-generation nephilim, knew a little, but he absolutely could not tell the council… Therefore, afterward, the Charred Council regretted having the nephilim killed too quickly, and their patience gradually disappeared. Finally, they thought of a waythrow the Red Sea Egg onto the remains of a battlefield of angels and demons, let it produce naturally, and see if it was possible to encounter good luck…

Of course, this kind of gambling had no good results. Logically speaking, after such a long time, the Charred Council should have long since not paid attention to the Red Sea Egg. Roy’s success rate of stealing the Red Sea Egg should have been very high, but why did the Charred Council make such a big fuss and have a councilor directly take action after discovering something abnormal with the egg?
