Compared to someone of a Ticket Seller's rank, Chen Heping was considered the leader of this small area, and he definitely knew more information.

It was too difficult for him to find an alien race that knew information about the Egg God now; all the alien races nearby were dead, and Chen Du didn't know where the ones who weren't dead had gone.

But he hadn't expected that Chen Heping, the one most likely to know the most detailed information, was actually still alive!

Moreover, Chen Du's sword strike that killed Sad Frog Village Chief was not meaningless; it was to let Chen Heping know that he was currently needed and valuable.

If he didn't have this thought, then in the subsequent questioning, he would conceal certain key information to ensure his own survival.

Just like Cao Daba back then, although Chen Du had ways to make the other party confess, it was better to do less unnecessary things.

Proactively mentioning the Giant Egg was also to make Chen Heping elaborate in more detail, as this item was considered a taboo here.

As for the phrase, "I'll have something for you to do later," there was nothing of the sort!

It was just to give the other party the illusion that he wouldn't be killed later.

Chen Heping nodded frantically, looking as if he would tell everything he knew.

In his heart, he wondered, "The other party ran away?"

"Weren't you beaten until only one heart remained? Shouldn't the result be that the other party was careless and left on his own?"

"Why does it sound like you beat the other party away?"

Of course, he didn't dare to say that!

Since the other party even knew about the Giant Egg, Chen Heping naturally had nothing to hide:

"That day, I originally intended to throw a few alien races who weren't working hard enough into the Giant Egg to be optimized, which would also be a contribution to civilization."

"But that day was very strange; the equivalent exchange failed, and those alien races that needed to be optimized weren't dragged in by the black hand inside the Giant Egg."

"Instead, they fell down as if they had hit a wall."

"I was bewildered at first, not knowing why, but I didn't dare to go over. You know, I was afraid of being dragged in for an equivalent exchange."

"Then, I noticed a detail: that day, the Giant Egg didn't spray lava, which was the first time such a thing had happened."

"My first thought at the time was, 'Is this Giant Egg for equivalent exchange expired?' meaning the Giant Egg had reached its natural end or something similar."

"But I was immediately proven wrong; the Giant Egg wasn't dying, but being reborn!"

As Chen Heping spoke, his voice trembled slightly and his expression showed some fear, clearly recalling some terrifying scene.

Chen Du listened silently, without saying a word.

The above information only confirmed one thing: the natural phenomenon of spraying lava had stopped. This made the difficulty of finding the Egg God even greater; without new clues, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

From this, it seemed that his previous guess was almost certainly correct: the natural phenomenon of spraying lava was merely a manifestation of the first stage of equivalent exchange.

As soon as the Egg God was born, this stage would end, and the Third Ecological Circle was like a bug, having died, which meant it hadn't been born.

Regarding this, Chen Du couldn't speculate much and could only assume that the relationship between the Giant Egg and the Egg God was more complex than he had imagined.

As Chen Heping spoke, Chen Du had already vaguely guessed that he must have witnessed the birth of the Egg God, and indeed it was so.

"Immediately after, I saw a sight that I still find hard to forget."

"The very top of that Giant Egg cracked open with a 'kacha' sound, followed by several more 'kacha' sounds, and a large black head emerged from inside the egg."

"It was a life form with no external organs. I didn't know what it was. It looked at me."

"I cannot describe that kind of fear; I only knew it was a very pure, instinctive fear of the other party."

"Then, I saw those few corpses waiting to be optimized suddenly begin to decay, turning into a pile of residue within seconds."

"I was terrified at the time, ignoring everything. After recovering from the fear, I immediately turned and ran."

"Then, that black monster came out of the egg, and its speed, 'whoosh,' immediately surpassed mine."

"Its size was much smaller than I expected. After all, that Giant Egg was a hundred meters tall, and I thought it would at least be a monster of similar size, but it was only about 15 meters long."

"After it surpassed me, it clearly noticed me and specifically stopped, circling in the air. I didn't understand what that meant; I couldn't think at all at the time. After being pursued, I instinctively ran in the opposite direction."

"Fortunately, this time, it didn't pay attention to me, or rather, it disdained to pay attention to an ant of my level."

"However, one thing was quite strange: the direction I was running in at the time was the direction of the Giant Egg."

"But I didn't see the Giant Egg then. Later, after thinking about it, it wasn't that I didn't see it, but that the Giant Egg had disappeared."

"Because the lava on the Surface was still there."

"And so, I inexplicably survived."

"Afterward, I heard a huge explosion from the area where I lived."

"Then I never dared to go back, and I also heard many rumors that the Advanced Sky Soaring Warriors sent there had all died, causing widespread panic."

"After a long time, I thought the black snake had left, so I mustered the courage to return once, intending to see how many survivors were left in the place where I once lived, and if there were any relics."

"And then I saw your Domain!"

"At that moment, I felt that you must be a person with a strong sense of justice in your heart, and immediately conceived the beautiful vision of becoming your subordinate!"

"So, even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, I had to come and meet you!"

Chen Du's eyelids lowered slightly; he did not reply.

Chen Heping's second piece of information was crucial, containing two very important details.

Firstly, the length. The black snake Chen Du fought was about 20 meters long.

However, the one Chen Heping saw was about 15 meters!

No matter what, the other party was a Sky Soaring Warrior; such a short length couldn't have an error of about 5 meters.

Also, Chen Heping just said that the black snake immediately attacked the area where he used to live after it emerged, while the Ticket Seller said that the change happened 10 days ago.

Combining these, it means that the length of this black snake increased by 5 meters within 10 days.

The average is 0.5 meters per day.

This means that the other party's progress speed is calculated by the day, visibly fast!
