Chapter 149: The Strange Egg

  After sending off Sasha Aunt, I began to study the gains of this time with Keli! Among these things, what I value most is not the powerful ninth-level demon egg! Nor is it the three angel feathers that can drive away all curses and are also super spellcasting media! But rather, the seed of the Tree of Life that quickly recovers magic power surprised me even more!

  Kerry's loss of composure after seeing it is indeed justified! For a super mage like Kerry, who is at the level of a law god, the magical power in his body is as vast as an ocean. Although he won't use it up easily, once he uses forbidden spells or engages in prolonged battles, it's not that he can't run out of magic! Once his magic runs out, a fragile mage like him might lose his life! Even if he manages to survive, recovering his magic is a very troublesome matter! At the very least, for a law god like Kerry, recovering his magical power, which is as vast as an ocean, would take at least ten years!

  But with the seed of the Tree of Life, it's completely different! In just three years, Krie can gather magic power that would normally take ten years to recover! Moreover, during battles, a mage's magic power recovery speed is zero, but with the seed of the Tree of Life, they can quickly recover magic power while fighting, increasing their sustained combat ability by at least double or more! It can be said that the seed of the Tree of Life is simply the best thing for mages to dream of!

  However, what I value most is not this point! Don't forget, I have a connection with the Elemental Spirit Empress! Their Moon Spring is said to be the place where magical elements are most concentrated. I think if we put the seed of the Tree of Life in it and ask the Elemental Spirit Empress to catalyze it with her spiritual method, it should definitely make it sprout! Since the Tree of Life is a rare species that can automatically produce magical elements, legend has it that the 'Blessing of the Magic God' was made from the heartwood of the Tree of Life! I think Her Majesty the Spirit Empress will be overjoyed! I wonder what special gifts I'll receive next time!

  Afterwards, I began to focus my attention on the three feathers! One of them will definitely be left for my Xian Ya! The remaining two will be kept for now, and I estimate that they will come in handy when I face off against Feng*Seuss, the Grand Marshal of the Kart Kingdom who excels at curses, in the future!

  Finally, I've started to worry about this demon beast egg! Originally, I wanted to give it to Xian Ya, but thinking of her holy girl identity, it seems like she's absolutely incompatible with such a dark system thing! Giving it to Keli? That would be a complete waste! He not only has incredible strength himself, but also has that 'Dark Dragon Bone Staff' that sealed three super demon beasts, he doesn't need it at all! After thinking about it, I can only make myself have it cheaply! However, before hatching it, I still have one question to solve!

  "Krie!" I asked: "Why did the Sevyn family not use it themselves, but instead gave it to me?"

  "Didn't Miss Sasha tell you the reason?" Keli asked in puzzlement.

  "Cut! She's just passing on the lies woven by the Sevyn family!" The poor Taoist said disdainfully.

  "Oh?" Kuri asked curiously, "Why did you say that, sir?"

  "As one of the top families on the mainland, the Sevyn family absolutely cannot be without hidden powers in the dark! After all, they must have many unmentionable handles! Otherwise, where did they get all these good things for us?" The poor Taoist sneered: "Since it's already unsightly, why bother with what image? As long as the combat power is strong enough, even if it's just a dark system magic beast, or an out-and-out demon tribe, they'll definitely use it!"

  "You're right!" Krie said: "Such a big family must have some hidden power!"

  "Check it carefully for me!" The poor Taoist said to Keli, "I suspect that there is a cat hiding in this egg, and it's very likely that it contains a trap that will harm me! After all, if I die accidentally, no one can investigate, especially for a powerful family like the Sevyns!"

  "Yes!" Keli took the beast egg, slowly immersing his mind in it with great care! After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and said heavily: "Sir is wise! This thing is indeed strange!"

  "Tell me, what's going on?" Wudang asked excitedly! As long as I know the reason, with my and Keli's combined strength, it will be absolutely easy to resolve!

  "This beast egg can absorb an enormous amount of magical power, far beyond what ordinary beast eggs can handle!" Kuri said with a bitter smile: "It's like a bottomless pit, even I have no idea how much energy it would take to hatch it! Anyway, it's probably going to suck the life out of anyone who tries to sign a contract with it and drain them to death! And judging from my investigation inside, it seems that many people have already been sucked dry by it!"

  "Damn it! You're trying to screw me over!" I was startled, and then I burst out in anger. However, scolding isn't going to solve anything. After I calmed down a bit, I said with a huff: "The more you try to screw me over, the less I'll let you have your way! You want me to just watch but not eat? No way, I'm going to hatch it no matter what!"

  "Keli, although you can't fully grasp its bottom line, shouldn't you have a rough estimate?" The poor Taoist asked: "I'm asking, can the two of you guarantee to hatch it?"

  "Absolutely no problem!" Klie said confidently: "On this continent, there is still no one who can surpass my magic power by a factor of two. This egg is formidable, but the magic fluctuations I feel are just those of a ninth-level magical beast. My own magic power alone cannot fill it up, and at the very least, I have the confidence to make it full to eight or nine out of ten!"

  Signing a contract with a magical beast egg requires the contractor to provide magical power to help the egg hatch, unlike young beasts that have already been born and only need to sign a direct contract! If you want to hatch a seventh-level magical beast, you need to provide about all the magic of a magician! And if you want to hatch an eighth-level magical beast, you need to mobilize the full strength of a great magician! As for ninth-level magical beast eggs, so far no one has ever heard of anyone getting one!

  "Keli! Your knowledge is really profound, and the demons you know are absolutely not few! Is there no information about this demon egg at all?" The poor Taoist said dejectedly: "I don't want to waste a lot of effort and end up with some weird garbage!"

  "Sir! I know many 9th-level dark system magical beasts, such as the most common dragon, Dark Wolf Emperor, Dry Bone Tyrant, Queen of Witches, Shadow Assassin, Hellfire, Three-headed Dog King of Hell, Blood Demon Emperor, Eight-armed Giant Magician~~~" Klie started to show off his knowledge!

  "Halt!" The poor Taoist hastily called a stop and said: "I just want to know who laid this egg?"

  "Sorry, sir!" Kuri said with embarrassment: "I don't know!"

  "My goodness!!!” The poor Taoist panted and said: “Emotionally speaking, everything you just said is nonsense!”

  "This egg is too weird! I've never seen or even heard of it before! To think that it's just a normal 9th-level magical beast, I'm sure hatching it won't be a problem, at most it'll only take half my magic power to do so!" Kuri muttered gloomily: "But this one... for the first time, I feel uncertain!"

  "En!" The poor Taoist thought for a moment and asked, "According to common sense, the higher the magic consumption, the more powerful the demon beast that hatches out, right?"

  "Yes! Sir!" Kuri replied!

  "Alright, I've made up my mind, let's hatch it! I want to see what this thing really is!" The poor Daoist said with determination.

  I'm actually in a precarious situation now! After coming to the Holy City, I realized how powerful the Angel Bird people's forces are on this continent! My current strength is too weak, and I don't know how to hold back, so everyone on the continent knows about me! What if one day I didn't cover up well and exposed my 'three disasters' foundation, and it reached the ears of the bird people? That would be a disaster! Who knows if they have any connections between them? I'm the one who killed their main god and millions of angel armies on that side, now I should be considered a super-interdimensional fugitive, right?

  Don't look at my current backing by the Dragon Clan and the Elf Tribe, although they now dare to show off their might to the humans on earth, but if they really could confront the Birdmen in the sky head-on, they wouldn't be forced to a deserted island, living on fish every day; one was driven to the Elven Forest, only able to fight with ferocious magical beasts for territory! So now I'm being extremely cautious, it's like standing at the edge of an abyss, or walking on thin ice.

  After all, it's a matter of strength! So, I've decided that even if it's an adventure, I'll hatch this strange egg!

  Thinking of this, I asked Keli: "The noise of hatching this thing should be quite loud, right?"

  "Yes, probably people within a radius of several miles can feel it, and as for the Pope, he's unlikely to be able to cover it up!" Kri said afterwards: "However, I can prepare a huge magic array to completely conceal the aura, but it will take several days in terms of time!"

  "Alright!" The poor Taoist thought for a moment, then said: "The space gate of the next cover can directly transport us back to my territory. Now I'll send you over first, and you prepare ahead of time. After a few days, when I've finished fighting with the barbarian prince, I'll go back and hatch it out. Will that be soon enough?"

  "That's enough for these few days!" Krie exclaimed!

  "Great!" The poor Taoist smiled and said: "I really look forward to the surprise that this egg will bring me!"
