Latest website: slightly larger than an egg, semi-transparent, under the light in the cultivation tank, there is a tan water ripple, look carefully, it seems to have a bit of gelatinous texture...

After seeing this thing, a thought immediately popped up in Shi Xiaolei's mind—isn't this f*cking preserved egg?

Think back.

Although Stark is often out of tune, he has always been serious when it comes to scientific research and experiments. With his personality, he wouldn't be able to make a joke of himself by putting a preserved egg in the cultivation tank.

"Is this... the egg laid by the venom?" While confirming, Shi Xiaolei turned his head and looked at Eddie Brock, who was walking towards this side.

After the rounds of testing just now, the venom consumed a lot of energy. At this moment, he had retracted into Eddie Brock's body to rest.

"Yes." Eddie Brock scratched his head in embarrassment, with a somewhat speechless expression: "I was shocked at the time, thinking that this thing was born by me. Until I confirmed it with Venom It was only later that I realized that the egg was his work."

"Hehe." Hearing Eddie Brock's words, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help laughing when he thought of an image: "You laid an egg suddenly, you must have been panicked at that time. Do you feel that you have gradually left the world?" The category of human beings suddenly appeared, "Can I still be regarded as a human being"? Hahahahaha."

"That's right, that's the feeling." Eddie Brock also laughed.

After joking a few words, he turned his attention back to the egg floating in the cultivation tank.

It looked so much like a peeled egg, Shi Xiaolei had to remind himself time and time again, and managed to stay awake.

"How long will it take for this thing to hatch?" In order to divert attention, Shi Xiaolei asked again because he was really curious.

"Who knows?" Shrugging, Stark smiled wryly and shook his head: "I don't think anyone can answer this question."

"Um?"

"I asked Venom." Eddie Brock continued to answer after taking the babble: "He said this was his first time laying eggs, and he had never experienced a similar situation before. So, he didn't know about this egg. How long does it take for the eggs to hatch."

"Then... what about the other symbionts who came to Earth with him? Haven't they laid eggs?" Shi Xiaolei asked again.

"No." Eddie Brock shook his head: "Even if there is, it may not be used as a reference."

"..." After pondering for a few seconds, Shi Xiaolei blinked his eyes in confusion: "You've confused me, what is there may not be used as a reference? Isn't it fixed how many days it takes to hatch?"

"Your question is on point." As if Shi Xiaolei didn't expect Shi Xiaolei to notice this, Stark raised his eyebrows in surprise, and took the conversation with a smile: "After my research, And the testimony given by Venom himself...Symbionts are very good at 'hibernation'. Until they meet a suitable host, they will remain dormant like lifeless fossils."

"The universe is so big, it is not so easy to meet a suitable host. That is to say, during the drifting period, they often sleep for decades or even hundreds of years."

"Whether it is an adult symbiont or a newly-born embryo, that is, this kind of egg, all have this ability. For symbionts, it is their instinct to resist the passage of time through long-term dormancy. In addition, because the state during dormancy is similar to inorganic matter, it can well resist all kinds of energy radiation encountered during cosmic drifting, so..."

"Uh, it seems to be a bit far-fetched. In short, when the eggs hatch, the key depends on when they meet a suitable host for parasitism. It's not like eggs and duck eggs. After encountering a suitable environment, how many days do they stay fixed?" will hatch."

After listening to Stark's explanation, Shi Xiaolei finally understood the joints.

"Then you just told me that this is an incubator?" Pointing to the cylindrical culture tank in front of him, Shi Xiaolei questioned: "According to what you said, just find a host for it, and you need to make a special thing for it Is it?"

"No way, who made it a premature baby." Stark shrugged and said an answer that surprised Shi Xiaolei.

"Premature baby? What's going on here?"

"To put it simply, he accidentally went too far during the physical examination of Venom. Then, in order to treat his injuries, he was supplemented with too many nutrients at one time. Then, the absorbed nutrients exceeded what can be digested. The upper limit of his reproductive instinct was activated, giving birth to such a ball that should not have appeared in the first place."

Following Stark, Eddie Brock continued to add: "Fundamentally speaking, the spawning this time is a special situation, and he didn't take the initiative to do it."

"Is there any difference?"

"Of course there is a difference." Stark said: "If he consciously wants to lay eggs, he will conceive a egg that is sound enough, well, in easy-to-understand terms, it is one with a complete yolk and egg white." And the one you see now is a by-product after he took emergency measures to protect himself from being overwhelmed by excess nutrients... Let's put it this way, the 'yolk' as the core is not a problem, but because of the follow-up Not being able to continue to supply enough nutrients, the volume of the 'egg white' part is smaller than normal."

"...I see." Because what Stark said was simple enough, Shi Xiaolei quickly understood what he meant.

Looking at the egg floating in the cultivation tank again, Shi Xiaolei shook his head regretfully: "That is to say, it may not be hatched, nor can it parasitize humans like venom?"

"No~lightnovelpub.net~ It's okay to hatch." Eddie Brock replied: "I asked Venom, he told me himself, and his tone was very firm."

"The point is that it lacks nutrients. After parasitizing on the host, it will be like a runaway pump, extracting nutrients from the host uncontrollably." Stark explained, turning his head to look at Shi Xiaolei: "If the host follows you The same talent is nothing to worry about, at most it will be weak for a while. But if it is replaced by an ordinary person... Hehe, Jarvis has already calculated that there is a 96.35% possibility that the host will be killed by it. Mummified."

"Hiss...is that an exaggeration?"

"That's why I built this thing." Patting the cultivation tank, Stark said with a smile: "Let's soak it here for a while, let it replenish nutrients well. When it is fully developed, it will not **** the host. Adults do it, and then think about choosing a host for it."

"You're still thoughtful." Shi Xiaolei nodded: "By the way, do you have any thoughts about choosing a host?"
