Chapter 187: Chapter 134 What the Heck, the System Wants Me to Hatch an Egg?!! [Big Chapter, 5000 Words]_2
‘Stop’
With Ye Fan’s command, the spinning wheel stopped accelerating and slowed down abruptly.
It finally stopped at the Longevity Pill, and upon seeing this, Ye Fan wanted to burst out laughing.
A Longevity Pill, that was something great.
It was something that could extend one’s life by a few years.
He had already secretly given the elixir that added five years to one’s life to his mom, and he slipped it into the water for his dad to drink.
This pill would be perfect for Bai Zhentian, his grandfather.
After all, Bai Zhentian was over sixty years old and his health was declining by the day.
This couldn’t have come at a better time.
‘Congratulations Host, you have drawn a ‘Thank You for Your Patronage; better luck next time!’ The System’s prompt sounded.
Ye Fan was instantly dumbfounded!
This is a Longevity Pill, isn’t it?
Why is the system saying ‘Thank You for Your Patronage,’ and even congratulating me, is it broken?
Ye Fan leaned in to take a closer look at the pointer of the spinning wheel, and at that moment, he felt like he was about to vomit blood.
The pointer had actually moved past the Longevity Pill’s slot, missing it by less than a millimeter; it was so close, oh my god.
Can it really play me like that?
This is infuriating!
Another ‘Thank You for Your Patronage’!
It was so damn close, heavens, this System must be doing it on purpose.
Suddenly, I’m fully awake, like being hit by a bolt from the blue.
Sigh, such a regret!
Two hundred points for just an egg and a ‘Thank You for Your Patronage.’
Indeed, a real pitfall!
And it says to keep it up, keep what up?
It made Ye Fan so angry that his lungs started to hurt.
Good grief!
Two hundred points traded for just an egg!
I’m not a hen, am I really expected to sit on the egg and hatch it?
Stop kidding!
It’s not funny at all!
Ye Fan was truly burning with rage inside, and no matter how he looked at that egg, it just seemed extremely unpleasant to the eye.
‘Host, do not give up, continue to work hard, the higher the level, the harder it is to get the reward,’ the System said, trying to console.
Perhaps sensing Ye Fan’s anger, it spoke up to console him.
Ye Fan, upon hearing this, thought that it made sense.
Indeed, good things were hard to come by.
After all, it was all about exchange at equivalent value.
Having only tried the lottery a few times, it was normal not to get anything good.
Thinking this way, Ye Fan immediately felt it made a lot of sense, and he felt somewhat better inside.
Only, what to do with this egg?
‘System, what kind of egg is this?’ asked Ye Fan.
The egg seemed a bit odd, with strange patterns etched into the shell.
This made Ye Fan very curious and also quite puzzled.
Could it be, a snake egg?
Or what is it?
‘Host, you’ll know once you hatch it,’ the System said and then stopped paying attention to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan, hearing these words from the System, was instantly a bit speechless.
Of course, he knew that he would find out what kind of egg it was once he hatched it; he just wanted to know in advance.
The System indeed loved to keep people in suspense.
Saying so was as good as not saying anything.
If it’s like this, why should he bother asking?
Helplessly, Ye Fan didn’t take out the egg, as it wasn’t convenient at the moment.
If he took it out, how would he explain it?
Hard to explain, and besides, if his parents asked what kind of egg it was, what was he supposed to say?
To say, I don’t know either? Wouldn’t that be suspicious?
Forget it, forget it, best to hatch it quietly.
As long as it hatched, then it would be easy to explain.
At home, the parents were watching the children play, Bai Zhentian was there too, along with four robots, while Susu had already gone to school; she had another class to attend in the afternoon.
So, Ye Fan didn’t have much to worry about.
Ye Fan quietly went to the lawn by himself, sat down on the grass, and then quietly took out the egg.
This egg was quite large.
It was the size of two duck eggs.
The egg was white, but there were strange patterns around it, which were red. What on earth was this?
Anyway, he had never seen it before.
Holding the white egg in his hand, he turned it left and right, but couldn’t figure out anything special about it.
He had no choice but to place the egg on the lawn, so that it was bathed in sunlight; he couldn’t possibly sit on it and incubate the egg himself.
If he actually sat on it, what was there to hatch? It would be crushed instantly.
Besides, he felt it was beneath a man’s dignity to incubate an egg.
Even though no one was watching, he still felt it was wrong.
So, it’s just about the temperature, then letting the sun shine on it would do.
After all, it was a last-ditch effort.
A white egg lay on the lush green lawn, and Ye Fan just stared at the egg.
To see if the egg would hatch.
Perhaps because Ye Fan’s actions were too exasperating,
The System still offered a reminder.
It truly couldn’t stand to see more.
Forced to deal with such a host, it too was at a loss.
“Host, this egg, when I say it needs incubating, it means it must be incubated, and by you, or else it won’t come out, it’s like a ritual, a necessary process,” the System said with a tone full of resignation.
Ye Fan, hearing the System’s words, had his handsome face covered in black lines.
‘It seems that to get whatever is inside the egg to come out, I must incubate it, even if it’s just for the sake of a ritual,’ Ye Fan finally understood.
Alright then!
Turns out I’m just the utility guy.
The egg incubating utility guy.
And this egg must be incubated.
Despite being extremely reluctant inside, Ye Fan still conceded.
He looked around to make sure no one else was there.
And then, he picked up the egg.
But how does one incubate an egg?
