My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome

Chapter 68: Chapter 67 Hatching (1/2)

“Click…”

A faint cracking sound arose, and Shao Zifeng’s hand, holding onto the doorknob, stiffened. He slowly turned his head to look at the Elemental Egg, his face revealing a hint of anticipation.

The Elemental Egg was about to hatch!

“Click…”

“Ying!!!”

Qiuqiu, who was holding onto Big Gold Tooth, widened its eyes in alarm, frantically tugging at Shao Zifeng’s clothing.

“It’s cracking open!”

Unfortunately, Shao Zifeng’s entire focus was on the Elemental Egg. He reached out and petted Qiuqiu a couple of times, not minding the little drama king.

Another crack appeared on the smooth surface of the egg, and wisp after wisp of misty green light shot out from the fissures, causing Shao Zifeng’s mood to fluctuate violently with the emergence of the light.

Accompanied by the dense sounds of fracturing, the entire room became filled with a soft green glow. The plants in the room perked up, rustling without wind as if reciting a mysterious and ancient ode to life.

At this moment, the aquamarine Elemental Egg was covered in web-like fractures. With the spread and interweaving of the cracks, a triangular piece of the shell broke off and fell. It gradually decomposed into specks of starlight mid-air and was reabsorbed by the Elemental Egg.

Shao Zifeng stared intently at the triangular opening, imagining what kind of pet beast might hatch from it.

Suddenly, the image of a doe-footed girl appeared in his mind, and he quickly shook his head to dispel this terrifying thought.

In his heart, he silently chanted, “Please, not that Yao.”

“You~”

While Shao Zifeng was lost in his wild thoughts, a naive and ethereal moan resounded in his heart, the voice full of curiosity and a sense of wonder at this unknown world.

“Little guy, come on out~ I’ve got some tasty milk for you…” Shao Zifeng felt a surge of joy, but before he could finish speaking, he stopped abruptly, his smile freezing on his face.

He looked down at the milk powder in the packaging bag he was holding, then looked back up at the Elemental Egg.

Damn!

Can elemental lifeforms eat milk powder?

He must be an idiot.

Now what? The baby is about to be born, and he isn’t even prepared—how awkward.

“You~”

Hearing Shao Zifeng’s voice, the little one inside the Elemental Egg let out an excited cry. The cracks on the egg widened as pieces of the shell flew off, breaking down into green starlight, looking like it was ready to break out of the shell at any moment.

Finally, the Elemental Egg, rife with fissures, completely shattered, revealing a tiny silhouette on the computer desk. It first looked around curiously, then lifted its head to sniff the air, letting out a contented chirp.

Looking at the tiny figure, Shao Zifeng sighed with relief.

Thank goodness, it wasn’t that Yao.

Then he took another look at the little one.

All composure left him. @@novelbin@@

What in the world is this!

What happened to the promised elemental lifeform!

Instead, a fluffy, adorable creature appeared.

There on the computer desk was a deer-like mutant creature.

Its streamlined and slender body was topped with two small lumps on its head. Its smooth and glossy cream-colored fur shone. Noticing Shao Zifeng’s gaze, the doe’s eyes glinted like jade, full of life and movement.

As Shao Zifeng approached, the little deer wagged its short tail gently from side to side, seemingly in a great mood.

No matter what, it was his own hatching. Suppressing his doubts, Shao Zifeng put on a warm smile.

“Welcome, and please, let’s take care of each other.” Shao Zifeng walked up to the computer desk and reached out his right hand to the little deer.

“You~”

The little deer wobbled forward a few steps, still seemingly unsure how to walk properly.

It first used its wet, pink little nose to sniff his hand, as if trying to memorize his scent, then squinted its eyes and rubbed its small head against Shao Zifeng’s large hand.

Feeling the touch on his hand, Shao Zifeng’s heart nearly melted—this was just too cute.

Qiuqiu watched incredulously at this… uh, quadruped.

It even forgot to be jealous.

It’s cracking open!!

I’m not happy anymore!!

Qiuqiu’s mood plummeted, subconsciously licking the Big Gold Tooth it was holding.

Ptui, not tasty.

Shao Zifeng caressed the little deer, and a blue light flickered in front of him. A semi-transparent screen slowly unfolded.

[Name]: Spotted Deer/Wood Elemental Spirit

[Growth]: Juvenile phase

[Status]: Healthy, Symbiosis

[Strength]: First Order

[Phylum]: Chordata

[Class]: Mammalia

[Order]: Artiodactyla

[Family]: Cervidae

[Attribute]: Wood

[Potential]: ★☆☆☆

[Talent]: Symbiosis: It has acquired the Symbiosis talent by merging with the residual essence of the elemental creature ‘Forest Divine Deer’. It’s a passive talent that requires mutual dependence; prosperity for both (Non-upgradable).

Healing Heart: When using healing skills, it can greatly enhance the target’s cellular activity, rapidly repairing their wounds (Non-upgradable).

[Skills]: Life Hymn (Inherited), Life Seed (Inherited), Healing Fragrance, Charge

[Description]: The ‘Forest Divine Deer’s’ residue was activated by the spirit of the wood element, resulting in a special form born from their mutual blending and dependence. A young sika deer, not yet elementalized, can provide substantial protection to the elemental spirit.

Symbiosis, so this is what Symbiosis is, which means, according to the explanation, that the original elemental life resides within this little deer.

What a pity, this pure white sika deer only has a four-star potential.

Even though a four-star talent is not low, he still felt somewhat disappointed.

Shao Zifeng put down Qiuqiu, who was inwardly lamenting, and embraced the little deer in his arms, rubbing its soft little head gently as he began to speak tentatively, “Elemental Spirit.”

“Heehee~”

An ethereal giggle arose within Shao Zifeng’s heart, and a layer of star-like green spots appeared on the little deer, dancing and converging in mid-air, ultimately forming a semi-transparent humanoid elemental creature.

Perhaps due to being newborn, its form was highly unstable; one could only roughly make out a humanoid head, limbs, and a pair of bright green eyes.

After the Elemental Spirit emerged, it first flew to the little deer, patting its head with its small hand.

Then it floated into the air, spreading its tiny short arms to give Shao Zifeng’s face a big hug, affectionately nuzzling against his face with its small face.

Shao Zifeng could clearly feel its dependency.

The feeling of an Elemental Spirit nuzzling one’s face?

How to describe it?

It just felt cool, accompanied by a touch of faint fragrance, but lacked a sense of realness.

A pale blue light flickered in the depths of Shao Zifeng’s eyes.

[Name]: Wood Elemental Spirit

[Growth]: Juvenile

[Status]: Healthy, Symbiosis, Elemental Body

[Strength]: First Order

[Phylum]: None

[Class]: None

[Order]: None

[Family]: None

[Attribute]: Wood

[Potential]: ★☆☆☆☆

[Talent]: Symbiosis: It has gained the Symbiosis talent by merging with the residual essence of the ‘Forest Divine Deer’, an elemental creature. It’s a passive talent that fosters mutual dependence; prosperity for both (Non-upgradable).

Elemental Seed (Wood): A shaping talent, during its growth, it will slowly develop into abilities suitable for itself.

[Skills]: Wood Defense, Vine Strangulation, Wood Thorn

[Description]: The ‘Forest Divine Deer’s’ residue was activated by the Wood Elemental Spirit, resulting in a special form born from their mutual blending and dependence. The Elemental Spirit, fragile at birth, requires a prolonged residency within the body of the sika deer for its protection.

Looking at the information on the screen in front of him, Shao Zifeng felt his earlier disappointment fly away.

He had acquired two pets at once, one for healing and support, and another with great potential for attack.

Moreover, when pets are needed for battles during classes, the little deer would be the best choice.

Even if its strength was somewhat lacking.

But who would be foolish enough to attack the healer, right?

The Elemental Spirit sat on Shao Zifeng’s shoulder, kicking its tiny legs back and forth, curiously scrutinizing its surroundings.

The sika deer, held in Shao Zifeng’s arms, half-closed its moist big eyes, clung to his sleeve with its small mouth moving rapidly as if it were suckling.

Attracted by the little deer’s adorable behavior, Shao Zifeng suddenly slapped his forehead; he still had another one that could suckle.

It seems truly exceptional individuals can foresee the future.

Shao Zifeng frantically justified his oversight in his heart.
