Chapter 121 Twin Eggs
In this case, if you want to kill the Spider King, you can't bite it.
Yang Chen controlled the little white snake to approach and lashed it with its tail. The Spider King was instantly flattened by this heavy blow.
There was no chance to breathe.
The Spider Prince, who was hiding behind the rock, began to tremble with fear when he saw his father being killed so easily.
"Father, if I can escape alive, I will definitely return with my army to avenge you!"
The Spider Prince shed two lines of clear tears, and he remained quietly hiding behind the rocks until the war between the Sky-Swallowing Python and the Black-Haired Spider ended.
…
"The Spider King is dead, all the black-haired spiders should surrender!"
A loud shout resounded throughout the battlefield, and the Sky-Swallowing Python army sounded the clarion call for a full-scale counterattack.
"Spider King, our king!" The black-haired spider army reacted and began to search for their king.
On the muddy ground, there were traces of the Sky-Swallowing Python's tremendous force, and in the traces, they also saw the bloody side of the Spider King.
Even though it was difficult for the Spider King to identify his identity at this moment, the Spider Prince who was crying beside him had confirmed that it was the Spider King's body.
"Your Highness, given the current situation, should we continue to attack or retreat?"
"Continue the attack and try to find out the Sky-Swallowing Python's strength. Our Black-Haired Spiders have always had a strong reproductive capacity. We have more than enough time to wear down the Sky-Swallowing Python tribe!"
The Spider Prince gritted his teeth and said that based on his many years of experience fighting against the Sky-Swallowing Python tribe, the Spider King judged that this would be a fatal blow to the Sky-Swallowing Python, because the Sky-Swallowing Python's army that went out to find food for the queen would be restricted by the black-haired spiders. By then, the Sky-Swallowing Python queen would surely starve to death, and the entire Sky-Swallowing Python tribe would be finished.
The Spider Prince was filled with hatred. He wanted to avenge his father, so he had to continue to firmly carry out the Spider King's original plan.
"We need to select a new Spider King from among the tribe. We, the Black-haired Spiders, cannot live even a single day without a king. We must have spiritual support, and we also need to continuously multiply our army!"
The rear of the black-haired spiders' marches always carry female relatives with them. Thanks to the black-haired spiders' rapid reproduction rate, it is enough to make up for the losses on the battlefield.
"This time, we must fight the Sky-Swallowing Python army to the bitter end!"
…
"A great victory!"
"Long live the king!"
When Yang Chen led the vanguard back, the Sky-Swallowing Pythons cheered at Yang Chen.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Now let's continue preparing food for Her Majesty the Queen."
"King, do we need to get meat from the black-haired spider?" asked a Sky-Swallowing Python warrior.
"Because the war with the black-haired spider has been delayed for some time, the Queen's nutrition may not be enough. We can only take the most essential meat from the black-haired spider's corpse and give it to Her Majesty the Queen." Yang Chen ordered.
"yes!"
The army followed the order, and soon a pile of white meat was transported into the queen's lair.
"These are the most refined pieces of meat peeled off from the black-haired spiders. Although the black-haired spiders are too low-level, the war has delayed us for too long, so we can only use these to fill the gap."
The starving queen could only nod reluctantly after hearing Yang Chen's words. "Alright, the black-haired spider tribe has been planning this for a long time, so I can't blame you for your incompetence. I'll just devour these nutrients first. The second cub must be born as soon as possible."
The queen said as she tasted the white meat. Although it was a low-level black-haired spider, the essence stripped from its body tasted just as good.
It's just that the energy it can provide is much weaker, and it can only be used by the queen to replenish her lost energy.
"I feel that the second egg is about to be born! But this time due to insufficient nutrition, it is very likely to be a defective product." The queen felt a pain in her abdomen and said with some concern.
Usually this abnormal reaction also means that defective products will be produced.
Yang Chen also looked at it worriedly. After all, the eggs laid by the queen were half the result of his efforts.
The Sky-Swallowing Python is notoriously difficult to reproduce, and can only lay one egg at a time. Each egg takes several days to incubate, which is very time-consuming and labor-intensive while ensuring the quality.
If several days of hard work were to be ruined in an instant, not only the Queen, but Yang Chen would also feel distressed.
While stroking the first child he had just hatched, Yang Chen watched the queen lay the second egg.
A huge snake egg was born. Yang Chen looked at it in surprise. It was twice the size of an ordinary egg and said in surprise, "It doesn't look like it's malnourished, does it?"
"No, there are two possibilities in this situation. One possibility is that there are two little guys growing in the egg at the same time. This situation usually occurs when there is malnutrition, and the little guys compete with each other for energy. Another possibility is that there is probably only egg white in it, no yolk." The queen explained weakly.
Yang Chen immediately went up to support the frail queen and said, "How can we determine the condition of this egg?"
"This can be confirmed by using lighting methods, such as preparing a fire source," the queen ordered.
Yang Chen brought a torch, and the queen held up the egg and shone it in the direction of the torch. Her face was somewhat disappointed, "The worst has happened. It's twins, a boy and a girl."
"Twins, a boy and a girl, is this the worst case scenario?" Yang Chen thought the worst case scenario would be that there was only egg white but no yolk.
The queen then explained, "If there's only egg white and no yolk, it means it's not a fertilized egg, which means your ability is insufficient. I can then eat the egg and replenish my energy. We only need to perform the ritual again to lay another egg."
"But if they are twins, then given the insufficient energy I obtained before, the children that are hatched will be defective and will definitely have many physiological defects. This type of Sky-Swallowing Python will have a hard time surviving and may even drag down the entire species."
Hearing this, Yang Chen disagreed and shook his head, saying, "Whether it's defective or not, it's still our child."
Yang Chen's heartwarming words reached the queen's ears, causing her to blush.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Is this what a king should say?" The queen blushed.
"I'm not only a king, but also a husband, right?" Yang Chen said again.
The queen blushed again. "What truth are you telling me? Come over here and cooperate with me. We're going to have our third child. As for the twin egg, you can do whatever you want with it. It's up to you whether to incubate it or not."
Yang Chen's face also turned a little red. He nodded, approached the queen, and then climbed up.
Some mysterious ritual was taking place in the lair.
the next day.
Yang Chen curled up exhausted and wrapped the twin eggs under his body to incubate them.
"I didn't expect you to care so much about it?" There was something different in the queen's eyes when she looked at Yang Chen.
In the past, she only treated Wang as a tool, but she didn't know whether it was because of the transformation or other reasons, she actually had different feelings for Yang Chen.
This feeling is like attachment, but also like...
