661: despair

Cao Daba once said that the Egg God stage cannot be killed.

And the information he divulged was always correct.

However, all this information was truncated, hiding some crucial details.

Chen Du could believe him, but not entirely.

Compared to such words, seeing is believing was more important.

If a planet could only contain one Egg God, then the conclusion was actually very simple, even a bit redundant.

Since there would only be one, then this planet only had one Egg God!

This was the conclusion, and it was Unique.

That is, the one that had vanished from his sight, one hundred thousand meters Underground.

As for the Tears Dam in the Third Ecological Circle, based on his own experiences, Chen Du believed that the other party was also an Egg God.

But for some reason, he failed to hatch.

And precisely because he failed, Blue Star was able to give birth to a second Egg God.

If the rules of the Great Universe were simply to screen planets suitable for Egg God hatching.

Then if Blue Star could be chosen once, it could naturally be chosen a second time.

In this way, it could explain why there were two Egg Gods on one planet.

It was very simple: the other one died, so another one came.

As for why the dead one could still attack Chen Du at the time, it could only be understood as a certain characteristic of a God Lifeform.

After all, a God Lifeform was, as Cao Daba, a naturally superior Lifeform, had said, an Advanced existence.

To put it plainly, if you wanted to compare fathers, his father was the Universe, how could you compare?

So, a state of death different from ordinary life was also normal.

Working backward from the result, the Tears Dam Egg God was naturally dead.

As for what Cao Daba said, that the Egg God stage cannot be killed.

Chen Du believed this inability to kill was stage-dependent.

The Equivalent Exchange of the first stage should be unkillable, and the Breaking Out of the Shell of the fourth stage should also be unkillable.

But in reality, it was still possible to kill them.

If they couldn't be killed, why would a second Egg God appear?

Even if the process and principle were unknown, the result was there.

So Cao Daba's statement was not Perfection; he concealed the concept of stages.

Chen Du, starting from the perspective of seeing is believing, concluded that the Egg God stage can be killed!

It just depends on the stage.

The second and third stages should be killable, but how to kill them was unknown.

Such a Lifeform probably couldn't be destroyed by a simple physical decapitation.

There was no evidence for this, but Chen Du firmly believed it.

Thinking of this, Chen Du felt much more at ease.

Thus, the two contradictory matters—that a planet can only have one Egg God, and that the Egg God stage cannot be killed—were finally understood.

Although it might not be entirely correct, when combined with the actual situation, it was at least seventy to eighty percent accurate.

Although he had found answers, Chen Du was not very happy.

In fact, because of this clarification, his mood became even heavier.

From the disappearance of this Egg God and the theories above, Chen Du drew two terrible conclusions.

One: This Egg God had passed the stage of Equivalent Exchange.

This meant that he was one step closer to the fourth stage of Breaking Out of the Shell.

Because he was not very clear about God Lifeforms, and the four stages were all self-divided by Chen Du.

So Chen Du did not know the "time proportion" of hatching.

To put it simply, if hatching was a progress bar, then the progress would naturally be from 0% to 100%.

Now, let's assume there are only four stages of birth.

What is the proportion of each?

What if the Equivalent Exchange accounted for 90% of the time?

That would mean that after a long period of invincibility, the other party would enter a period of rapid growth, which is from a small black shadow to a large black shadow, and then Breaking Out of the Shell.

If the time for each stage was equal, then it should still be a very long time until the fourth stage.

Chen Du currently had no clues about this information.

It was useless to even go to Sifang Cave again; firstly, there were no Materials for sacrifice, and secondly, he had no means to threaten the other party.

Aside from the Egg God's Equivalent Exchange, Chen Du currently had no way to kill an Energy Lifeform.

It was even possible that Cao Daba was truly as he said, that Energy does not disappear, it only transfers.

Combining his experience inside the Tears Dam, if a God Lifeform's body was a Small World, then Cao Daba might not have truly died, but was permanently trapped inside.

For an Energy Lifeform that cannot die, this was indeed the most painful torment.

Especially the Tears Dam Egg God, who, in Chen Du's estimation, was already dead; if the Small World still existed after a God Lifeform's death, then the Energy Lifeform would have to stay inside indefinitely, with no tomorrow forever!

"No wonder he was so afraid of the Egg God back then."

Chen Du muttered to himself, as if suddenly enlightened.

However, he personally leaned more towards the former speculation, meaning a long early development period and accelerated birth in the Late Stage.

This wasn't because he was pessimistic, but because that black snake dared to show its face.

This action proved that he should possess a certain amount of power, perhaps having stayed in the egg for a long time, or perhaps being impatient after just gaining consciousness, and so on.

In short, one principle: doing is more important than saying.

The other party's performance already had a hint of being fearless.

And the second terrible result was being chosen.

Assuming they really eliminated this Underground Egg God, would another Egg God appear?

After all, the death of an Egg God could not negate Blue Star's value as fodder.

This meant that the destruction of Blue Star was destined.

But according to the information Cao Daba provided, this was not without a solution.

In fact, there were immediately two clear solution paths.

One: Kill extensively, turning Blue Star into a planet whose fodder quality did not meet the requirements for Egg God hatching.

Two: Have several Starry Sky Warriors emerge.

If the strongest individuals of the top civilizations were all Starry Sky Warriors, then the Egg God's identity would change from predator to food.

Compared to the first, the second, though more difficult to achieve, would provide more lasting peace and stability.

After all, life will recover, and various Geniuses will rise, unless you are ruthless enough to destroy even the resources.

But doing so, if an extraterrestrial visitor came one day, they would still die.

Therefore, the most perfect solution was the second... Boom!

As Chen Du thought of this, his head felt as if he had taken a deep breath of expired medicated oil, his scalp tingling, and then he was suddenly enlightened.

"No wonder..."

"No wonder there's a Level 35 limit on Blue Star!"

If someone didn't want too many Starry Sky Warriors to appear on Blue Star, and only wanted it to be a paradise of fodder for the Egg God... But who could possess such a feat and strength?

Could even the Black Dragon King's death be related to this?

The moment this thought emerged, a drop of cold sweat slid down Chen Du's cheek.

Just thinking about such an enemy made one feel despair!

Could a person or thing capable of orchestrating such a feat truly be defeated?

If that were truly the case, wouldn't Blue Star be destined for destruction?

And wouldn't the alien races above also be destined to become fodder?

Just then, Chen Du's powerful Mental Energy sensed that something seemed to have happened in the direction of the Shushu Civilization.

And there was an indescribable, yet somewhat familiar feeling.

"Could it be..."

Chen Du guessed something and immediately turned around and flew over.
