The Nagoul Demon who had stealthily laid the Array was a fourth-order "Lord of Famine"!
As everyone knows, the life of every Lord of Famine was spent either eating or on the hunt for something to eat, and this time the Lord of Famine didn't crave human flesh, it coveted the eggs laid by Racan, wanting to taste the flavor of the crab roe.
Therefore, it had used an inconspicuous First Rank minor demon as the focus of the Array, setting it up covertly here, while it huddled inside, busily carving into the other's small nest.
One was the Alien Species Duke looking for a relatively safe place near the border to lay its eggs, to prevent them from being eaten;
The other was the Lord of Famine, ready to sacrifice everything, including its dignity, to stoop low and become a "boring thief" for the sake of food.
Just as the Lord of Famine was about to succeed, who would have known that Xu Shu would show up at this moment and dig up its Array focus.
