Chapter 414 - 413: Beast Egg Crack

Yu Zhizhi carefully took out the two Pet Eggs and tapped on the text prompt next to them, giving it a quick browse.

It turned out she still needed an Incubator.

She could exchange check-in Crystal Stones for them in the shop, so Yu Zhizhi directly redeemed two. They were round devices that looked like flower buds, with crystal stands underneath.

Closing the system interface, she told the Little Octopus to open its eyes.

"Okay~"

The moment the Little Octopus opened its eyes, it saw the two "Beast Eggs" held in the rabbit female’s arms! Its eyes widened in pleasant surprise, but it soon discovered that the markings on them didn’t seem to belong to any Beast Clan.

The Pet Eggs were a dark purple, faintly glowing with a golden light.

Yu Zhizhi handed both eggs to the Little Octopus. "This is the Incubator. You have to check on it every day, okay? Maybe the little pets will show up one day~"

Both of these Pet Eggs were of the Elf System. Yu Zhizhi had no idea what would hatch from them.

The Little Octopus couldn’t bear to part with them.

It happily lifted the two Pet Eggs with its tentacles. Now there were three eggs in total! ’Hmph, hmph. Good thing I have so many tentacles, or I wouldn’t be able to hold them all!’

The Little Octopus lived next door to Yu Zhizhi, and it scurried back to its room.

The Incubator was placed right next to the Beast Egg.

It stuffed the Pet Eggs inside. The flower-bud-like devices quickly closed, emitting a warm glow.

Night fell. Yu Zhizhi closed the balcony door.

’I should go check on the Divine Tree when I wake up tomorrow,’ she thought.

Life on her territory was comfortable and carefree. Even her sleep was exceptionally sweet.

As she was sleeping drowsily, her communicator lit up a few times.

Yu Zhizhi heard the sound.

She answered it, so sleepy she could barely open her eyes.

She had no idea what the person on the other end said before she fell asleep again.

It wasn’t until the next day that she discovered it was an unknown number.

News that an SS+ female from the Valoran Empire had acquired her own territory spread across the entire Beast World Planet in an instant.

This was an extremely rare situation on the continent. Long before the news was officially announced, nobles from all the major Empires had already sent gifts as a sign of goodwill.

Meanwhile, the Tiger Clan of the Moon Rising Empire was the first to sense the birth of the Golden Tiger Cub.

The council elder, still at the Extreme Ice Palace, excitedly applied to join the Delegation.

Furthermore, he went to ask Prince Canglan for permission, hoping he would also accompany them.

’Even though the Prince’s relationship with the Rabbit Clan Lady is a bit delicate, this is his child, after all. More importantly, it’s the bloodline of the Moon Ascending Royal Family.’

Cang Lan had also sensed the distant aura of the Golden Tiger Beast Egg...

He turned his back. "Leave this matter to Cang Jie."

The council elder had originally wanted to say that the territory was far away, making a single trip very inconvenient. It would be better to find a way to set up a Teleportation Array in the territory so that they could visit frequently in the future... er, but the Prince surprisingly had no such thoughts.

The elder then thought, ’Wouldn’t it also be good if the Seventh Prince, Cang Jie, led the Delegation?’

’It would be even better if the Rabbit Clan Lady took a liking to him!’

He walked outside.

He saw a Lizard Servant rushing in.

The elder reprimanded him in a low voice, "This is the Prince’s bedchamber. What is the meaning of this panic?"

Of course the Lizard Servant was anxious.

It came before the councilor and bowed deeply. "My lord, this is a private spirit letter from the Sky Star Territory! It’s for the Crown Prince!"

The council elder hadn’t yet processed this.

"Tianxing?"

He suddenly realized—it was Ms. Zhi Zhi’s territory! Its name had been made public!

"Quick, take it to the Prince!" the council elder urged.

’Since it was sent from her territory, this letter must have been written by the Rabbit Clan Lady herself.’

’It seems there might still be a chance for her and the Prince, after all.’

When Yu Zhizhi woke up in the morning, the first thing she saw was the Little Octopus. It was perched by her pillow, staring intently at her.

"...What’s wrong?" Yu Zhizhi rubbed her eyes.

The Little Octopus pushed the golden Beast Egg over. "Here, it looks like there’s a crack."

Yu Zhizhi froze for a moment. She quickly sat up and picked up the Beast Egg to examine it carefully. Sure enough, a tiny crack had appeared on its surface.

"Did it get dropped?" she murmured.

The Little Octopus’s eyes went wide. "Of course not! I was super careful!"

"Could it be... it’s about to hatch?"

Yu Zhizhi was taken aback. ’Beast Eggs don’t hatch this quickly, do they? It should take half a month at the very least, and sometimes even two or three months.’

She hurried to find Ai Xi.

The Bee Clan female had no experience with this either. She comforted Yu Zhizhi a little and searched online, but the results said it was a sign of a bad incubation and that something might go wrong...

When Yu Zhizhi heard that, her face paled slightly.

She gripped her communicator, thought for a moment, and then dialed Noel’s number.

「On the other end of the line.」

After hearing what Yu Zhizhi said, Noel was silent for a moment. "Don’t believe what you read online. Depending on the temperature and environmental influences, small cracks can appear on the surface of a Beast Egg. Generally speaking, it’s not a big problem."

He paused, as if he could picture the little rabbit’s panicked expression. "If you’re really worried, you can find a male with powerful spiritual power to help the Beast Egg hatch ahead of time. No matter what happens, with your dual talents of Healing and Evolution, you’ll be able to handle it just fine."

"...Thank you."

Yu Zhizhi knew Noel was just trying to comfort her.

Still, she hoped the Golden Tiger Cub would hatch without any problems.

Spiritual power...

’A powerful male?’

’The territory is an isolated island. Where am I supposed to find someone like that on such short notice?’

’I’ve got it!’

Yu Zhizhi thought of the Divine Hall Illusion Realm. She could go find Zero first and ask if he had any ideas.

’If possible, I might be able to contact other people through Zero.’

Yu Zhizhi thanked Noel.

After hanging up, she took out the coin for the Divine Hall Illusion Realm.

She hadn’t gone to the Divine Hall Illusion Realm in a long time.

When she arrived this time, the round table was still quiet, and the surroundings were completely dark. Sensing her arrival, the talisman slowly opened its eye.

"Zero isn’t here," it said directly.

"When will he be back? I have something very important to ask..."

The talisman gurgled and spat out two puffs of dark green mist.

"There’s been too much going on in the Land of Prophecy lately. Just wait, Miss Rabbit."

Yu Zhizhi sat down in her chair. She lowered her head slightly and didn’t reply.

She waited for a long time.

There was no sign of Zero.

She got up and left.

’Zero isn’t here... I have to think of another way.’

Yu Zhizhi returned to her room.

The Little Octopus came over. "How did it go? Was the cat there?"

She shook her head gently.

The Little Octopus looked at the golden Beast Egg in distress. "How about I do it?"

Yu Zhizhi looked at it in surprise.

’Eight hundred spiritual power?’

"I... I’ll go check with the Guard Team..."

Yu Zhizhi had learned from Noel that the person’s spiritual power had to be extremely strong.

SSS-level wasn’t enough; it required an even higher Realm.

The Little Octopus was left in charge of guarding the Beast Egg.

Yu Zhizhi walked out of the castle. As evening fell, the Firefly Flowers began to glow faintly, and the ground as far as the eye could see was sparkling.

When the respective Guard Team captains heard the Rabbit Clan Lady ask about their members, they immediately brought over the personnel files for her to look through.

Yu Zhizhi began to examine them seriously.
