Luther looked at his hands and then at the gap in the egg. He was really confused.
I'm not working hard. Could it be that I'm born with supernatural powers?
Luther's confusion only lasted for a short while, and he quickly reacted.
Is this breaking the shell?
What should I do? Can I just watch him? Or should I help him?
Luther's mind was in confusion. It was really not the right time for Mai to go out. She should have gone to get drinks by herself if she had known earlier, so she stayed.
The eggshell is still collapsing, and two fingers can fit into the hole that was originally the size of a little finger.
"Stop jumping, stupid hippopotamus!"
Luther held him down and still strode around in circles, jumping up and down, like a dumb hippopotamus in an infinite loop.
After being held down, he struggled again, took a few steps forward, and stopped in place as if frozen. Looking at Luther from this angle, he seemed to be thinking about his mistakes while facing the wall.
All the elves gathered around and stared at the black hole, feeling anxious in their hearts.
A new life was about to come into this world. Luther had never had such an observation experience before. Whether it was due to the temperature of the air conditioner or nervousness, Luther's palms were sweating.
The elf egg has not moved for a long time. This is not normal. Generally speaking, after breaking the shell and seeing the light from the outside world, the elf should have exerted enough strength to come out directly.
It was deathly silent, Luther and the elves did not dare to make a sound for fear of disturbing the baby in the elf egg.
Kirulian felt Luther's nervousness. She hesitated and reached out to the elf egg.
Mai opened the door, and a gust of cold wind penetrated into the room. The stuffy room suddenly became refreshing and comfortable. With this gust of wind, a high-pitched cry came from the eggshell.
Having sound is a good thing!
Mai was stunned and dropped the drink she was holding on the ground. She even forgot to close the door. She squatted next to the elf egg and tried to reach out several times, but finally retracted it.
"What's wrong?"
Mai stared at the elf egg and shook her head: "Wait a little longer."
There is very little movement in the elf egg. Just by listening to the sound, you can feel the elf baby moving and adjusting its posture in the egg shell.
"I have seen several types of elf eggs hatch. Some of them broke the shell very smoothly and directly broke the egg shell. Some of them directly absorbed all the energy of the egg shell during hatching, leaving no egg shell behind at all.
Coming into this world; some have to take a long time to adapt every time they break out of their shell due to strength and development reasons..."
Mai said the last sentence very quietly, obviously worried that the elf baby would hear it.
"The last situation tends to be risky."
Luther knew that the risk was to become a dead egg.
This is also the most difficult situation for breeders to accept. Even though these baby elves were about to see the beautiful scenery and listen to the sounds of the world, they fell before the finish line.
"Then what are we waiting for?"
"What I have been emphasizing while waiting for you to train Lalu Lasi."
Luther suddenly understood.
The elf's breaking out of the shell is actually his struggle process. If the elf has the ability to break out of the shell by himself, the breeder is best not to help him. This will make these babies who were born extremely difficult lose the ability to successfully overcome the difficulties of life and death.
Sense of achievement.
God gave them an unusually tortuous birth experience, but gave them a smooth birth, a gift that elves cannot get.
This precious memory often accompanies an elf throughout his life.
A round, feathery tail gently and suddenly covered the gap in the eggshell, and Luther and Mai heard the deep sound of the little guy straining inside.
His tail successfully cracked the eggshell near the gap, and the mucus in the eggshell splashed out with his tail, splashing all over the dazed hippopotamus standing there.
Now Luther and Mai breathed a sigh of relief. They could see that the baby elf was working hard to break out of its shell on its own strength.
Every once in a while, the rested baby elf would swipe at the cracked gap with its tail. As time went by, the gap became larger, and Luther and Mai finally knew who the little guy was about to hatch.
This is a mosquito-repellent tadpole that looks relatively thin. Looking at the illustration data alone, its average size is smaller than that of normal mosquito-repellent tadpoles.
Mai sighed, this elf egg must have been obtained by the foster person through some strange channel.
The elf who gave birth to this mosquito-repellent tadpole must not have very good nutrition. The nutrients provided to the mosquito-repellent tadpole in the elf egg are very scarce, which directly causes the mosquito-repellent tadpole to be very weak.
The mosquito-repellent tadpole finally poked its head out. Its body covered with transparent mucus was firmly stuck on the edge of the eggshell with its tail, and its eyes were full of yearning for this world.
However, the broken shell was incomplete, and his round body was still stuck by the sharp edge of the eggshell, causing pain and he suddenly started crying.
Mai and Luther, who were observing his every move from behind, decided to go to help, but Geely Dan was one step ahead of them.
She gently broke the eggshell of the mosquito-repellent tadpole stuck, and gently took the mosquito-repellent tadpole out with her short hands.
The mosquito-repellent tadpole sitting on the ground looked around curiously. Mai quickly rushed out to get a basin of warm water, carefully wiped off the mucus on the mosquito-repellent tadpole, and carefully checked whether the position where he was stuck by the eggshell was injured.
.
The mosquito-repellent tadpole, which had been gently handled, just lay in the basin filled with warm water and fell asleep.
Perhaps it was too hard to break the shell. No matter how much Mai moved him, he didn't wake up and kept snoring softly.
This was the first time Luther saw an elf hatching. It was different from what he had expected before. It was not the kind of elf baby that could successfully absorb the energy left in the eggshell and directly hatch it, and the baby elf would be jumping around right after birth.
The hatching of mosquito-repellent tadpoles is a bit of a narrow escape.
But he succeeded, and success meant that he had the opportunity to appreciate the world.
Compared to Luther's joy, other elves participated in the process of wiping the body of the mosquito-repellent tadpole. Shuttlecock cotton was really not good at handling the towel, so he could only use cotton wool to spread a little water on the mosquito-repellent tadpole.
The whole process has a sense of blessing, as if they hope to give some of their strength to this weak new life.
Mai quickly reported the news of the hatching of mosquito-repellent tadpoles to the owner of the breeding house, and then she also called the foster care provider of the mosquito-repellent tadpoles.
The owner of the mosquito-repellent tadpoles was a girl about the same age as Mai, with a single ponytail. She came to the breeding house almost immediately after being notified.
Unlike those travelers who just want to go away, the owner of Mosquito-repellent Tadpole is a down-to-earth academic. She insists on learning the basic knowledge before starting her own trip.
The phone call was made by her father to the school teacher, who then notified her. Now that she appeared here, she directly declined the next class.
Looking at the tiny mosquito-repellent tadpoles in the basin, she seemed a little at a loss.
She chased Mai and asked several questions, whether she could touch the mosquito-repellent tadpoles now, and would it have any adverse effects on the mosquito-repellent tadpoles?
After getting Mai's answer, she carefully picked up the mosquito tadpoles from the water basin.
The sleeping child seemed not to realize that his master had come to him and was hugging him, but he just breathed a beautiful sound.
The girl was extremely careful, as if holding a fragile object, groping the tadpole's back gently.
Luther and Mai looked at each other and smiled in unison.
so good…
It doesn't matter if he is weak, as long as he meets someone who loves and cherishes him, he will eventually grow up.
As long as you meet the right person at the right time, nothing will be a problem.
