The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 948 - 946: The Consequences of Sneaking Food
"How many fish? You wouldn’t be talking about Rainbow Dragon Trout, would you?"
Xin Lin was dumbfounded upon hearing this.
(One or two fish... boohoo, maybe four, five, six, or even seven)
The Overlord Egg nearly cried itself into a stupor.
It was tired from chasing fish in the lake, and hungry, so it accidentally swallowed a few.
To avoid Mommy scolding it for sneaking food, it falsely claimed it hadn’t eaten anything.
After eating those fish, it felt its belly was full, and soon became sleepy, completely unaware that Xin Lin and the others were preparing Wushan Grilled Fish.
Back then, the Overlord Egg didn’t realize it was because it was about to hatch.
"..."
Xin Lin was utterly exasperated.
This silly egg actually gobbled down so many Rainbow Dragon Trout at once.
Although those fish were still juvenile and not true Rainbow Dragon Trout, they were mixed-blood Rainbow Dragon Trout and not much inferior to adult ones.
In the evening, when they ate three Rainbow Dragon Trout, everyone experienced some minor changes in their bodies.
Xin Lin’s reaction was the smallest, but she still felt a subtle air flow surging inside her.
The Overlord Egg ate seven? Maybe more. It was obvious that its body must have undergone some changes from eating the fish. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
(Boohoo, Mommy, I won’t dare anymore, I don’t want to become a roasted egg, Mommy save me)
Xin Lin replied irritably.
"Calling for Mommy won’t help now."
She glanced at Gui Hu.
The Overlord Egg was very perceptive.
(Daddy?)
"Ha~"
Gui Hu sneered.
Now it’s trying to curry favor, forgetting him when it was fishing in muddied waters, and forgetting him while eating fish.
"Uh, Pride Corpse, what’s wrong with the Overlord Egg really? Didn’t you say it was fine?"
After all, it’s your own egg causing trouble, you’ve got to deal with it yourself.
Xin Lin laughed awkwardly, thinking to herself, you’re responsible too, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have brought it back!
Adopting a "you have to take responsibility" tone, Gui Hu sulked for a moment, seeing Xin Lin pitifully looking at him.
"It’s having a difficult hatch."
He replied nonchalantly.
!!!
(!!)
Xin Lin and the Overlord Egg were both dumbfounded.
A difficult hatch? They’ve only heard of women having difficult childbirths, could Spiritual Beasts having a difficult hatch?
"To put it simply, it’s stuck. Last time it swallowed that piece of Golden Crow Egg Shell, increasing the spiritual power within significantly. Logically, it should have hatched recently. But it recklessly ate a large amount of Rainbow Dragon Trout."
Gui Hu patiently explained.
Xuan Spirit Beasts differ from humans.
They don’t need time to hatch, rather it depends on the strength of spiritual power within.
Ordinary eggs typically hatch in a few days or weeks.
Due to its own reasons, the Overlord Egg has been in the egg for more than half a year.
Hence, it requires a large amount of spiritual power to hatch.
If not for that piece of Golden Crow Egg Shell, it might have stayed in egg form for another half year.
With sufficient spiritual energy, it would naturally hatch.
The problem is, the Overlord Egg consumed a lot of Rainbow Dragon Trout again.
"Those fish, descendants of Rainbow Dragon Trout and Ice Horned Dragon, were coincidentally hatched in the Black Water Lake. The Black Water Lake, enclosed with Dragon Ancient Tomb for years, retained a large amount of Dragon Breath expelled by Ice Horned Dragons. Rainbow Dragon Trout absorbed the Dragon Breath, which was beneficial, but the Overlord Egg absorbing it was different."
Gui Hu snorted coldly at this point.
The Dragon Breath and Dragon Clan blood within the Rainbow Dragon Trout significantly strengthened the Overlord Egg’s shell, thus it couldn’t break through the shell anymore, getting stuck... with a difficult hatch.
In short, this tragic event was all due to overeating.
(Boohoo, I don’t want to be stuck during hatching)
The Overlord Egg wept sorrowfully upon hearing this.
