Chapter 39: Incubation
The human-faced lust spider family is oviparous like ordinary spiders, and although the number of eggs laid at one time is not as large as that of ordinary spiders, there are always eight out of ten, and eggs are laid twice a year.
It stands to reason that with such a reproductive ability, coupled with the strength of a martial artist as an adult, the human-faced lust spider clan should be very strong, but the truth is indeed just the opposite.
The so-called life is easy, life is easy, but life is not easy.
"The difficulty lies in energy transmission, if the spider eggs can't get enough energy, the final hatch can only be ordinary spiders, not to mention adult martial artists, not even alien beasts, so our clan has not been able to develop."
The big spider said in a very sighing tone, it didn't say how much energy it takes to reproduce a small spider, nor how much loss they have in the transmission of energy.
Shi Zheng nodded and asked, "So, my business is to help you hatch spider eggs?" ”
"The main thing is indeed to hatch spider eggs, and if possible, I also hope that you can give me some help when my kind breaks through."
As he spoke, the big spider led Shi Zheng and them to a large platform made of intertwined branches and leaves, which was covered with many spider eggs the size of a fist, and many spiders the size of a round table were busy green.
Shi Zheng looked at the spider eggs in front of him that could directly scare the dense phobia to death, and also felt a little numb, "This number is too much, I may not be able to play much role alone?" ”
The big spider sighed and said, "Let's try it first, if you can do it, it will always be beneficial anyway." ”
Coming closer, the big spider introduced: "The spider eggs are pure white when they are first born, and after injecting energy, they will appear in the pattern, and if the pattern can be human, then it will be successful."
There are too many eggs and not enough energy, so we can only pick the sturdy eggs, test their receptivity to energy, and if both are good, we inject energy to hatch.
But even so, there is no guarantee that all the hatched species will become alien beasts, and there will always be various reasons for failure, so that our hard work is in vain. ”
Shi Zheng didn't ask where the unqualified spider eggs went, the law of elimination in nature is extremely cruel, even if people have a time when they can eat their children, not to mention these strange beasts whose spiritual intelligence still needs to evolve.
The big spider used his front paws to pluck a pure white spider egg in front of Shi Zheng, and said, "You inject energy to try and see how much energy is needed to form a human face pattern on it?" ”
Shi Zheng picked up the spider egg and looked at it, and then his mind moved to transmit the pink energy of the past, and the spider egg gradually began to appear on the pattern, as Shi Zheng kept adding energy, and finally the red pattern formed a human face.
Well, it's a little boy, it's a male spider.
Shi Zheng closed his eyes and estimated that if he divided the pink light ball in his sea of consciousness into one hundred parts, almost two parts would hatch a human-faced lust spider, and this amount of energy was almost equivalent to the full force of a junior martial artist.
Shi Zheng's energy seems to be a lot, but it is accumulated over a long period of time, and it is still used a little less, although it can be replenished, but the recovery speed is extremely slow, unlike a warrior who can recover after a little rest.
However, the energy to hatch spider eggs is provided by the human-faced lust spider clan, and Shi Zheng doesn't have to worry about his lack of energy, on the contrary, he can earn a little.
When the human face on the spider egg was formed, there was a knocking sound from inside the spider egg, and within a few clicks, a small hole was broken in the eggshell, and a sharp spider foot appeared in the breach.
With the increase of cracks on the spider eggs, a small spider the size of a goose egg appeared in Shi Zheng's hand, although the body was only the size of a goose egg, but after a few long legs were stretched, the occupied area was as big as a cutting board.
"Hahaha." The big spider laughed directly, stared at Shi Zheng's hand with his eyes, and said in a happy and excited tone: "I knew that it was okay, the development opportunity of my human face lust spider clan has come." ”
The lustful spiders on the faces of the people in Shi Zheng's eyes squeaked excitedly, and the trees were full of joy.
There was a group of uninvited guests under the tree, and the leader was Ji Diao's Ji Cheng.
Looking up and carefully looking at the canopy of the tree that covered the sky, Ji Diao frowned and said: "The smell of the human face erotic spider, the signs show that Tang Shan and his party have all gone up to this big tree, why do you think Tang Shan should go up?" ”
"With Tang Shan's cultivation, meeting a human-faced lust spider is basically looking for death, I think she is just a dog jumping off the wall."
"It's really ruthless, I'd rather leave the fire to the human face lust spider than let me get it."
"Hehe, I think Tang Shan's choice is not wrong, if it was in her current situation, I would make the same choice as her, after all, the fire fell into the hands of the human-faced lust spider clan, Tang Cheng still has the possibility of taking it back, and if it falls into our hands, there is no way."
Hearing the clansmen's chatter and laughter, Ji Diao shook his head with a smile, and said in a relaxed tone: "Let's go up and have a look, it's just a nest of human-faced lust spiders, if they know each other and hand over things, we won't be embarrassed by them." ”
"What if you don't know each other?"
"Then of course we'll destroy them."
"Although the ten of us are all great grandmasters, we may not be able to destroy a litter of human-faced lust spiders, right?"
"It really can't be extinguished, and it doesn't necessarily get out of the way."
"Do you think they dare to be the enemy of a city?"
Ji Diao frowned and said: "Now that the saint is not visible, the transcendent must not be moved lightly, let's try to be as careful as possible, the fire is important, try not to make extraneous branches, although we are great grandmasters, but the dean may not come here for us to raze a nest of human-faced lust spiders." ”
Hearing Ji Diao say this, everyone was silent.
Although Ji Cheng is in the center of the Great Zhou, it is not a big city, and the dean of the Martial Academy is extraordinary in the city, and there are still some great grandmasters.
Based on the distance from Ji Cheng to here, something happened to them here, and it is indeed unlikely that Dean Ji Cheng will come all the way to retaliate, after all, there are also many accidents along the way.
"Then let's go up and have a look first."
A few people were about to go up when they heard the surprised voice of the big spider.
The strange beast spat out words, which surprised several people, and after looking at each other, someone asked, "Is it extraordinary?" ”
Ji Diao pondered for a moment and shook his head, "Not necessarily, it may also be that Tang Shan's companions are suspicious." ”
"What then? Are we still going up? ”
Ji Yu frowned and thought about it, raised his voice and shouted: "Ji Cheng Ji Diao visited the patriarch here!" ”
