Hawbon Stoic and his team members could never imagine that it was an egg that fell to the ground together with the lightning streak; instead of a meteorite!
It was a huge golden egg that they had never seen before!
Meanwhile, golden light was faintly flowing over the surface of the huge golden egg.
‘Is that demons’ conspiracy?’
In an instant, this thought occurred to Hawbon Stoic, an officer of the royal corps of the Aoto Empire. However, at the same time, Hawbon Stoic felt that something was wrong; because he had never heard that demons came out in this pattern. Additionally, this huge egg appeared to be relevant to the odd purple lightning bolt that they had seen before. Demon knights were not able to do that. Even if they were able to do that, it was unnecessary for a demon knight to play tricks on him and his subordinates who were all low-level fish on the battlefield.
“Watch out, stay alert…” Hawbon Stoic whispered to his team members beside him as he took out his weapon and walked towards the huge egg at the bottom of the huge pit while stepping on the steamingly hot ground.
If ordinary people met such a dangerous and odd event, of course, they would turn around and escape right away. However, on the battlefield, as a fighter, also an officer, Hawbon Stoic couldn’t retreat at all; because their task was to face dangers. If they retreated at the sight of this odd huge egg, once their deed was known by their superiors, Hawbon Stoic and his team members might face military trials and bloody guillotine; instead of receiving any reward.
Under the gaze of his team members, Hawbon Stoic meticulously came to the bottom of that huge pit.
When he was less than 2 m away from the huge egg, Hawbon Stoic sensed the heatwave and high temperature from the huge golden egg.
That huge golden egg was like a crimson iron embryo which had just been completed in the workshop with boiling liquified steel. When the raindrops fell to the surface of the huge egg, it caused sizzle. All the raindrops that touched the surface of the huge egg would be vaporized and turned into misty vapor.
As rainwater flowed into the huge pit, the melting ground at the bottom of the huge pit instantly cooled down. Meanwhile, misty vapor poured out of the huge pit and turned increasingly thicker in the vicinity. When Hawbon Stoic reached the bottom of the huge pit, his subordinates could already not see him clearly from less than 10 m away outside the pit.
“Captain, are you alright?” A voice sounded from outside the huge pit.
“I’m fine. Take care of yourself…”
The huge egg was also rapidly cooling down as the scorching heatwave was fading away at a high speed. When Hawbon Stoic was over 1 m away from the huge egg, he reached out his long sword and slightly touched the eggshell with his sword blade.
According to the sound and the touch, Hawbon Stoic felt that he was touching a piece of metal.
When Hawbon Stoic wanted to further check it.
Crackle…
A fist suddenly broke out of the eggshell from inside on its top. At the same time, some odd runes flashed near the eggshell. Meanwhile, an odd and powerful field of force spewed out of the huge egg and covered the space within hundreds of square meters around the huge pit.
In an instant, Hawbon Stoic and his team members had been absolutely frozen together with the tumbling vapor. Even the falling raindrops were suspending in the air.
At this moment, nothing outside the eggshell within hundreds of square meters could move.
After a few seconds, another fist broke out of the eggshell from the other side. In the following half a minute, the entire eggshell was completely shattered as they slowly turned into four elements and dispersed, leaving no trace at all. At the same time, a wholly naked man was standing in the place where the egg was.
Panting heavily, Zhang Tie strode out of there in one step. When he broke the eggshell, he felt frail. At this moment, he was like a small bird who had just hatched from his eggshell. He was weakest at this moment.
The effect of the secret skill “arrival” of ” King Roc Sutra ” had not disappeared when Zhang Tie broke out of the eggshell. As a result, everything in the vicinity was frozen by the powerful force of field of the secret skill.
Zhang Tie looked up at the sky through the two huge holes in the roof as he slowly revealed a brilliant smile on his fatigued face. He then muttered towards the sky which was filled with rumbling thunders, “You’re powerful! So What! I am back…”
Eyes wide open, Hawbon Stoic still maintained the gesture of retreating rapidly. Pitifully, he was also frozen like a waxen statue. Zhang Tie then walked to the side of Hawbon Stoic. After observing him for a few seconds, he put his palm on Hawbon Stoic’s forehead while closing his own eyes.
After a few seconds, Zhang Tie opened his eyes with faint grief and pity in his eyes.
When he started to read Hawbon Stoic’s memory, Zhang Tie instantly knew his identity. In order to not cause irretrievable damages to this loyal human fighter’s brains, Zhang Tie didn’t read all of his memories; instead, he just read a part of his memory in the past one year. However, this small part of memory shocked Zhang Tie greatly.
It was the 932nd year of Black Iron Calendar, 42 years away from the holy war…
He was in Coldwater City, the frontline between allied human forces and demons in the Western Continent…
As of now, demons’ force had reached a terrifying degree in this world. With the support of demons, few puppet countries were founded in the Western Continent and some subcontinents. Therefore, humans were fighting each other on many battlefields…
Over one-third of Taixia Country’s territory had been occupied by demons. All the western administrative districts of Taixia Country had been occupied by demons…
Over these years when he was in Motian Realm, the manufacturing skills of fiery-oil had been disclosed unavoidably and mastered by demons and Three-eye Association…
Royal Prince Changying was assassinated by a demon sage in Jinzhou Province of Taixia Country 12 years ago. Taixia Country still didn’t have an emperor even now; instead, it was commonly supervised by the three ministers, nine royal chancellors and six lords of Taixia Country…
…
Zhang Tie didn’t recover his composure until a few seconds later; especially the death of Xuanyuan Changying was absolutely out of Zhang Tie’s expectation. When he recalled those images when he stayed with Xuanyuan Changying, Zhang Tie couldn’t help revealing faint grief and pity through his eyes.
What made Zhang Tie a bit reassured was that he didn’t discover any bad news about Jinwu Palace in the memory of Hawbon Stoic over the past one year. Jinwu Palace didn’t deteriorate; instead, it appeared to be more powerful than before; because all the all-purpose medicaments used by allied human forces across Western Continent were produced in those logistics bases co-founded by Jinwu Palace and the Rhesa Republic, Barbarian Alliance, Francia Empire and Holy Light Empire.
The production recipe of all-purpose medicament had not been disclosed yet.
The current situation facing the holy war and Taixia Country was more complex than that Zhang Tie could imagine. However, Zhang Tie’s current condition…
Many thoughts occurred to Zhang Tie…
After taking another glance at this officer of the royal corps of the Aoto Empire in the Western Continent and the other team members above the huge pit, Zhang Tie soon made a decision.
…
He instantly erased Hawbon Stoic’s memory about what had happened just now…
Zhang Tie then walked out of the huge pit in one step. Closely after that, he stroked the heads of all the other team members by turns. Then, he activated his invisible Shen bead and disappeared in a split second…
…
10 seconds later, the last piece of eggshell completely turned into four elements and disappeared at the bottom of the huge pit; raindrops continued to fall into the huge pit; vapor continued to tumble in the huge pit; Hawbon Stoic rapidly moved backward and came out of the huge pit.
“Captain, what’s downside there?”
“Nothing is there. That lightning bolt was so strange. We gotta get going…”
Hawbon Stoic felt being a bit dizzy. He didn’t know whether it was affected by the remaining force of the lightning bolt in this huge pit, he determined to leave here as soon as possible given such a loud noise. As for the mysterious relation between that lightning bolt and this huge pit and whether it was related to any numinous force, it was not what he was interested in and would like to explore. As the huge pit was just here, anyone who was not afraid of death could come here…
What Hawbon Stoic should consider was to survive on and kill more enemies…
…
It was already deep night; however, the battle in Coldwater City was ongoing…
