Displayed on the wooden platform is a palm-sized oval object.

The oval object is entirely bright silver, and its surface has a matte texture, surrounded by intricate golden stripes arranged in a regular pattern, akin to deep magic patterns.

Even more striking is that the oval object emits a faint silver glow, conspicuously shining in the dim wooden cabin.

"Is this an egg?"

Louise's starry eyes were filled with surprise, and she blurted out, "It's indeed an unexpected discovery."

"To be precise, it is a mysterious demon beast egg."

Grey Elder squinted his aged eyes slightly, with a voice full of astonishment said, "A glowing demon beast egg, and its surface is so profound, it is simply unheard of."

Upon hearing Grey Elder's words, Leo Ray's gaze showed even more curiosity.

It's important to know, as the president of the Mercenary Guild, Grey Elder has extensive knowledge, and his understanding of various demon beasts is unmatched in the Human World. Since even he cannot identify the origin of this egg, it truly is considered mysterious.

"Lord, could the reason the door opened automatically be to show us this egg?"

Qiana stroked her pale chin, pondering aloud, "Otherwise, if the barrier applied to the wooden cabin fails, this egg would be torn to pieces along with the wooden house by the gravitational wind."

"Your Majesty, I also agree, although this wooden cabin still stands here, the gravitational barrier is actually on the verge of collapse."

Yonir nodded in agreement with Leo Ray, "If we hadn't come here by chance, these things would soon cease to exist. It must be that the cabin's owner knew they might not return, so they applied an automatic detection formation on the door before leaving."

"Then what are we waiting for? Lord cherishes all things and certainly won't watch this demon beast egg be crushed in the raging energy wind."

Louise was eager to give it a try, nodded to Leo Ray, and said, "I'll go retrieve the egg now, my Lord!"

Upon receiving Leo Ray's permission, Louise was immediately engulfed in a rich blood energy barrier, and she flew straight towards the wooden cabin.

Before long, when she returned to Leo Ray, she had already picked up the mysterious demon beast egg in her hands.

"Indeed, it's extremely magical."

Leo Ray accepted the demon beast egg emanating faint silver light, and a warm feeling spread from his palm.

Feeling the warmth filled with the aura of life, Leo Ray attempted to open the egg's attribute column, only to see "??? egg" displayed.

"Lord, the wooden platform storing this egg is also covered with a not-so-complex incubation circle, and I've memorized all of it, including the specific hatching temperature."

Louise patted her chest and chuckled.

"Well done, then you might as well handle the hatching."

Leo Ray handed the egg back to Louise, nodding slightly, "I'll have Scarlett and accompany you in controlling the temperature."

Leo Ray knew very well, although this girl usually seemed unreliable, when serious, she handled matters meticulously. This was evident from her previous command of the massive Fortress.

"As you command, I will fully commit myself!"

Louise carefully took the demon beast egg again, looking ready to go, and said, "Please rest assured, my Lord, this unique demon beast egg will surely hatch into a formidable creature, becoming a new addition to your power!"

"Go for it, and I'll reward you with a feast of feasts."

Leo Ray habitually patted her head, then refocused on the small wooden cabin in front of him, and immediately ordered, "Since this place could be destroyed at any moment, let's explore it thoroughly one more time."

As per Leo Ray's command, Grey Elder and Yonir immediately took the lead, walking straight into the cabin.

However, after careful inspection, aside from an ordinary wooden cup etched with strange patterns, there was nothing else to be found.

Just when the group left the location of the wooden cabin, an unusual change occurred.

Without any warning, the crisp sound of breaking echoed as the purple barrier covering the wooden cabin had shattered and vanished without a trace.

In the next moment, the cabin, now unprotected by the barrier, was instantly torn to pieces by the wind, as if it never existed.

"Luckily we arrived just in time."

Louise, holding the demon beast egg, a touch of confusion emerged on her delicate face, wondering, "Lord, where did the cabin's owner go?"

"The answer is quite obvious now."

Leo Ray's gaze returned to the massive abyss opening nearby, pondering, "Even a Tier 6 Peak Gravity system expert perfectly matched with this environment can't walk back from the abyss. Truly, it becomes more curious what truly lies within."

Listening to Leo Ray's words, all the formidable figures glanced at the abyss emitting constant gravitational winds, their expressions solemn.

After a while, Yonir finally spoke, "Your Majesty, could this be the Great Catastrophe rift?"

Upon hearing this, all the powerful figures showed an even more grave expression.

Even a Tier 6 Peak Gravity system expert couldn't return; if energy winds of such scale swept through the Human World, the result would be self-evident.

"I have also considered this question, but according to God, the Great Catastrophe rift is located in a certain corner of the Human World, while this place is clearly beyond the specified range."
