“You’re simply too impressive. I hope you won’t regret this!” Dodola then said with a light snort, “If you want to hatch it, you’ll have to remove its seal first. That seal is unbearably crude, so it’s likely a half-deity’s handiwork. Undoing it shouldn’t be difficult. Don’t dirty my bed. Let’s go to the 96th level instead.”
...
The 96th level was a dim and dark blood-red world with blood-red ground, blood-red plants, and a blood-red full moon in the blood-red skies.
The place was bloody and sinister, dead silent and terrifying.
“The Dark Elements on this level are extremely rich and suit the Fallen Angel. You can place it here.”
“Alright!”
As the seal was a half-deity’s handiwork, undoing it didn’t pose much of a difficulty to Dodola.
Crack!
Crack!
Several thin cracks appeared on the pebble’s surface as the seal broke before they swiftly spread all over the pebble.
Whoosh!
Numerous blood-red rays of light shone through the cracks, and then it exploded with a loud boom.
Voila!
A large egg with a blood-red pattern and shining with a blood-red glow appeared before Meng Lei’s eyes.
An evil, demonic aura full of decay and depravity emanated into the surroundings, giving Meng Lei an extreme sense of discomfort.
Buzz...
At the same time, the lifeform inside the egg also seemed to sense the presence of Dark Elements in the surroundings and began to absorb them.
“To think it’s actually still alive despite being sealed for so many years. Its vitality sure is strong. Only a scant few higher Devils like the Fallen Angels and so on can possess such strong vitality!”
Dodola took in the feeling closely, and then it suddenly asked, “By the way, how did you know that it’s a Fallen Angel?”
“It was a random guess!” Meng Lei gave a patronizing response to shut Dodola up, and then he asked, “How do I hatch it?”
Although Dodola was rather dissatisfied with his answer, it nevertheless still replied, “The seal had shut out the circulation of magic elements. Now that it’s been removed, it’ll continue to mature on its own. You just need to wait patiently! However...”
“However what?” asked a puzzled Meng Lei.
“I’d suggest that you immediately form a blood pact with it and turn it into your slave.”
Dodola explained, “By the time it hatches, whether or not you can even defeat it would become a problem itself!”
“That makes sense!”
Meng Lei agreed wholeheartedly with Dodola. The reason why he’d dared to enter an equal contract with Little Gold and Teddy was that he had the confidence to subdue them if necessary, but this wasn’t the case for the Fallen Angel.
Not only was it born a half-deity, but it was even an evil Devil. Turning it into his slave was the most suitable course of action.
“By the way, what’s a blood pact?” Meng Lei asked as he scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.
“I’m gonna faint!”
Dodola was rendered speechless. “Seeing how you were so agreeable to the suggestion and how you’d agreed wholeheartedly with it, I thought that you knew about the blood pact. So you were just putting on a show?!”
“...”
Blood pacts weren’t difficult to learn. Meng Lei mastered it immediately after Dodola went through it with him once.
Meng Lei bit his finger and made a cut before squeezing out a few drops of blood. Then, using his finger as a pen, his blood as ink, and the laws of nature as a catalyst, he inscribed a magic circle.
Buzz...
A blood pact magic circle, which looked like messy, illegible drawings, covered the surface of the egg. Following the magic circle’s activation, the messy drawings turned into a blood-red glow that seeped into the egg.
The next moment, Meng Lei immediately felt a hint of an intimate connection with the tiny lifeform in the egg.
He could completely feel that tiny lifeform’s pulse, heartbeat, its desire for Dark Elements, as well as its instinctive desire to hatch and break out of the egg.
“This is so amazing!”
With a wave, Meng Lei brought out the elemental crystals that he’d just collected. Then, he picked out the dark-elemental ones and piled them around the Fallen Angel egg.
“So many elemental crystals!”
Dodola was rather impressed. “Not bad, you’re much richer than most typical native half-deities!”
“I just ransacked the Dragon God Empire’s treasury.” Meng Lei burst into laughter. “You know what I mean...”
“No wonder!”
A laughing Dodola said, “Since you have so many dark-elemental elemental crystals, you can set up a magical energy-gathering magic circle and accelerate the incubation process.”
“A magical energy-gathering magic circle?”
A look of confusion came over Meng Lei’s features.
“You don’t know this, either?”
A magical energy-gathering magic circle was set up in no time.
Upon activating the magic circle, the Dark Elements within several hundred kilometers of where they were swiftly converged in their direction and surged toward the Fallen Angel egg in the center of the magic circle.
The blood-red patterns on the surface of the egg became even brighter and more bewitching. As though crimson-red blood vessels, they started to absorb the Dark Elements in the surroundings even more fervently.
“That’s good enough!”
Dodola flapped its tiny little wings and said, “With the nourishment of such rich Dark Elements, it should be able to hatch very soon!”
“Hopefully!”
Meng Lei was looking forward very much to it, too.
“But you must take note of something.” Dodola suddenly warned, “It’ll need to feed once it hatches. Although Dark-Elemental Magical Beasts can barely suffice too, the best choice of food for it is still Devils.”
“It’ll need to feed on Devils?”
Meng Lei was dumbfounded.
Dodola explained, “Devils are different from deities. The fastest way for them to boost their combat power is to devour other Devils. High-grade Devils
