Chapter 188 Transformed into an Egg



Chapter 188 Transformed into an Egg

"Ah!!!" Chu Xichi screamed and said in a crying voice: "My brother turned into an egg?!"

After the earth-attributed psychic cleared the dirt and rocks on the upper level, they found a hole in the middle. They hurried to the lower level and found a giant white egg more than one meter tall, right opposite the place where Chu Xihen had just stood on the upper level.

There were cracks in the silvery-white eggshell, and looking through the cracks one could see a curled-up person inside, who was the Chu Xihen they were looking for!

"Is this the work of the monster just now? Did it eat Mr. Chu?" An earth-attributed mutant boldly spoke up.

Then he was stabbed by Chu Xizhe, and he lowered his head in fear.

The sight of that little girl slashing around with her moon blade just now was so scary, he couldn't afford to offend her.

"Although it's a little unbelievable, I think it's possible." Xiao Yan said, pointing to the top of the stone egg, "Chu Xiaoqi, look at this thing, does it look like the nail monster we saw in the cave just now?"

Chu Xichi was short, and when she stood on the ground her eggs only reached her waist, and she couldn't see the top at all.

The air was quiet for a moment, and Xiao Yan said compassionately: "How about I pick you up and let you see?"

“No need!” Chu Xiqi raised his hand to stop his suicidal behavior, summoned a half moon, and flew up on the moon.

Just as Xiao Yan said, there was indeed something growing on the top of the stone egg, and it looked like a flower.

"I feel like a night-blooming cereus?" Another earth-attributed psychic spoke.

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yan moved closer to observe carefully. The thing was attached to the eggshell, and was about ten centimeters in size. Each petal-like long nail was swaying in the air.

"You know what, it really looks like a night-blooming cereus? Those petals that were squirming in the cave just now were also its petals, right? Did they look yellow because they got dirty when we were digging? Now that they're clean, they look pretty nice?" Xiao Yan stared at it for a while and didn't even feel that the suspected night-blooming cereus had any intention of attacking.

"Is this the time to talk about this? Hurry up and get my brother out!" Chu Xixi was so anxious.

After she finished speaking, she summoned the Moon Blade and prepared to smash the stone egg.

Unfortunately, before she could throw her moon blade, one of the petals of the night-blooming cereus suddenly stretched out, and another night-blooming cereus with densely packed petals grew out from the tip of the petal, which looked exactly like the nail monster they had just seen in the cave.

The night-blooming cereus swept towards Chu Xichi like a slap, directly sweeping the little girl against the wall next to her, stirring up a cloud of dust.

When Xiao Yan saw this, he was about to take action, but he saw the petals retract again, returning to their pure white and soft appearance.

In order to avoid being slapped, Xiao Yan put away his special power and ran over to help Chu Xichi who was lying in the pile of rocks.

"Puh, puh, puh!" Chu Xixie's mouth was full of dust. He stood up while spitting, with blood still on his forehead.

However, the injuries she suffered were only superficial. For a person with special abilities, these injuries did not require any treatment and would heal on their own in a short while.

It was obvious that Epiphyllum did not want to kill Chu Xichi, otherwise it would not have used such a gentle force.

"What is that thing? How can it be so fast?" Chu Xichi was almost crying with anger.

Not only was my brother kidnapped by that thing, he was also beaten by it!

"It's very strong. I may not be able to defeat it." Xiao Yan just used his mental power. Although he did not attack the Epiphyllum, he did estimate the opponent.

"Nonsense! If it wasn't stronger than you, would it have been able to lock up my brother?" Chu Xi said sarcastically.

Xiao Yan was speechless and thought to himself: What an ungrateful girl!

"Mr. Xiao, it doesn't look like it wants to hurt us? Is it really that huge monster just now?" asked an earth-attributed mutant.

Now Chu Xihen was suddenly trapped, and the unknown giant monster disappeared again, so their situation was actually quite dangerous.

But if the Epiphyllum on the stone egg is the big monster, they can feel more at ease. At least the monster is right in front of them, instead of hiding where they can't see it, which could destroy them here at any time.

"Yes." Xiao Yan affirmed.

He was not sure before the Epiphyllum attacked Chu Xichi, but there was no doubt that the Epiphyllum that appeared when it stretched out its petals was the nail monster from before.

"Then what should we do now? It seems to be protecting this stone egg, and we can't rescue Mr. Chu." The earth-attributed psychic said again.

Xiao Yan looked up. When he had just cleared the upper layer of soil and rocks, he had asked the earth-attribute psychic to clear the top layer as well. Now he could directly see the blue sky above.

"Wait for Dr. Xie to send someone to pick us up. Xiaohua won't let us touch the stone egg, so we won't touch it and will carry it back to the Superpower Bureau." Xiao Yan said.

Chu Xiqi wiped the blood from his forehead and did not object to Xiao Yan's arrangement. "Doctor Xie should be able to get my brother out, right?"

From the gap in the eggshell, Chu Xichi could see that Chu Xihen was still breathing normally, which meant that he was fine, otherwise she would have cut the stone egg open even if she died.

After seeing Chu Xihen being locked in the stone egg, Xiao Yan used a peace pigeon to send a message to Xie Ling.

While waiting for Xie Ling to send someone over, Xiao Yan took his paper team members to other caves to look for some research data left by the HBP Institute for Xie Ling.

Three earth-attribute esper users stayed where they were to protect Chu Xishi, who was unwilling to leave.

Chu Xishi looked at Chu Xihen through the cracks in the eggshell, and only felt relieved after confirming that his breath was always with her.

Whenever she wanted to get closer to see more clearly, the Epiphyllum would extend a petal to warn her.

"Just wait for me. When we get back to the institute, I'll ask Dr. Xie to burn you to death!" Chu Xichi gritted his teeth and quarreled with Tanhua.

The night-blooming cereus seemed to understand. It stretched out its petals and shook them left and right towards Chu Xichi like a child sticking out its tongue.

Poor Chu Xiqi suffered from high blood pressure at a young age.

Three earth-attribute esper users were watching from the sidelines, trembling with fear.

"Miss Chu, Miss Chu, I heard that these large mutant monsters are all human-like, so you'd better not irritate them..." Thinking of the huge black thing before, they didn't dare to breathe when they looked at the Epiphyllum.

Only Chu Xi was so stupid that he dared to quarrel with Tanhua. He was really like a newborn ox that was not afraid of a tiger!

"What are you afraid of? If it dares to kill me, my brother will come out and dry it up in the sun!" Chu Xichi was already angry because she couldn't beat Epiphyllum, and if she wasn't allowed to curse at it at this time, she would probably explode with anger.

Fortunately, this time did not last long. Forty minutes later, Xie Ling came personally with two helicopters to pick them up.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Yan was quite surprised to see Xie Ling.

As soon as Xie Ling landed, he looked at the white stone egg containing Chu Xihen, "The message you sent was not clear, I was very worried, so I came to take a look in person."

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine, right?" Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Xie Ling pushed him away and walked straight towards Baidan: "Who cares whether you live or die? I am worried about Mr. Chu."

Xiao Yan: “…”
