Chapter 20: Excited Heart, Trembling Egg!
Editor: Atlas Studios
Lester led the way into the dense jungle ahead.
Galadriel stood on the observation deck and watched Lester and the others leave. After a long time, she turned and left the observation deck.
Although Gwen was following, it was not a bad thing to be warier of humans.
When Galadriel came down from the observation deck, she saw Slyph returning with the golden egg and Aurora.
"Your Majesty, the holy relic has been safely brought back."
As soon as she saw the egg in Slyph's hand, Galadriel immediately smiled and went forward to take it. "It's been hard on you."
Sensing the abundant life force in the golden egg, she looked at Aurora again.
"How's your magic learning, little guy?"
"I learned this month's class early, so Elder Sister Undine gave me a break."
"It's difficult for Undine to be so tolerant of a person, but even so, you have to work hard."
Aurora spoke seriously to Galadriel's encouragement.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I'll try to learn Level 9 magic before the end of this year!"
"Pfft!"
Slyph couldn't help but laugh. Galadriel smiled knowingly.
"I'm serious. I'll definitely be able to master Level 9 magic this year, but when the time comes…"
Aurora paused for a moment, then continued.
"If I do, I hope Her Majesty will allow me to go out and take a look!"
"Good. If you can master a Level 9 magic by the end of the year, I'll allow you to go out."
"I'll also give you a special wand."
Slyph added.
Although elves were strictly forbidden to go out now, even elders like Slyph were not allowed to go out except on missions.
However, Aurora still underestimated the difficulty of Level 9 magic.
One had to know that even Queen Galadriel was decades older than the current Aurora when she mastered Level 9 magic.
On the other hand, if Aurora could do it, it proved that she had the potential to become the next Elven Queen.
When the time came, she would fulfill her promise and let her out. She would definitely be accompanied by three demigod-level elders.
At this moment, Slyph spoke again.
"By the way, Your Majesty, we encountered a diplomatic mission from the Golden Seal Empire on the way back."
"I have a feeling these guys are up to something big."
"Just let them be. I've already informed Gwen and Undine. The patrol will be strengthened for the next few days."
Although it was impossible for the Golden Seal Empire to threaten the elves on the surface,
However, the elves suffered a lot because of them.
For example, the Level 7 spell that Gwen had discovered earlier would take form after absorbing moonlight.
Immediately after, the array would activate and transfer the surrounding magical items out.
In the past, Galadriel might have chosen to turn a blind eye.
In the current elves…
Weighing the golden egg in her hand, Galadriel spoke urgently.
"The Philosopher's Blood is about to be cultivated. When the time comes, we might be able to try to hatch you."
The golden egg trembled slightly, as if in response.
Slyph and Aurora were looking forward to it, because years had passed and they still had no idea what creature was in here.
In comparison, Chen Kun, who was in the egg, was even more excited.
In the past few years, he had finally understood his current situation.
If he wanted to hatch, he had to devour enough magic power.
Although the magic power in the Golden Forest was much richer than in the outside world, it was really not enough for him.
Undine had also used some magical alchemy potion on him, the effect was never good.
However, perhaps because he was too excited, Chen Kun suddenly felt a little sleepy.
After these few years, he was quite familiar with this phenomenon, so he fell unceremoniously into Galadriel's arms.
She knew what was going on after seeing this.
After giving Slyph some instructions, she carried the golden egg back to the bedroom.
Chen Kun slept for a few days.
When he stretched and opened his eyes in satisfaction, he saw a pair of lumps.
"Sigh, I wonder if my reproductive organs will be there after breaking out of the shell."
Chen Kun noticed that this was Undine's room. Galadriel was standing in the room with him in her arms.
Just as he was puzzled, a powerful magic power came from the alchemy room inside!
The scales on the eggshell's surface unfurled at this moment, and the magic power that spread near the eggshell was instantly absorbed by the scales.
After all, after living in the egg for a few years, Chen Kun had more or less grasped some basic usage.
"The density of this magic power is a little extraordinary!"
Chen Kun sighed in his heart. A moment later, he suddenly thought of something.
Could Undine be refining the Philosopher's Blood?
Galadriel clearly felt the golden egg tremble. She patted the eggshell gently.
"Don't be anxious. Refinement is very troublesome, right?"
At that moment, the door opened and a chaotic wave of magic surged out.
The scales on the golden egg's surface unfurled again, but the magic was blocked by Galadriel.
She did not dare to let the golden egg casually absorb this magic of unknown origin.
Then Undine came out of the room, her clothes completely shredded by the surging magic.
Looking at the blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, it was obvious that the refinement was not as smooth as last time.
Galadriel's heart tightened when she saw her. Had it failed?
"I thought that extra refinement would just waste more time. I didn't expect the reaction to be so big. Ahem…"
Undine coughed as she came to Galadriel.
She raised the bottle and stared at the red liquid. Galadriel sounded excited.
"Oh, the blessing of the Elven Goddess! You actually succeeded!"
"Fortunately, I didn't disappoint."
The place where Chen Kun was could be said to be the best viewing location.
But at this moment, he was looking forward to the full bottle of Philosopher's Blood!
Even through the bottle and the thick eggshell, Chen Kun could feel the thick magic of the Philosopher's Blood.
It had been three to four years!
Chen Kun had waited for three to four years before finally obtaining the Philosopher's Blood!
"I wonder how much I can improve after devouring such a big bottle of Philosopher's Blood."
"If only I can break out of the shell."
Chen Kun thought that although he could already move freely, there were still many restrictions.
For example, no matter which beauty he ran into, he could only watch and not even touch her!
This feeling was even worse than killing him!
Most importantly, after leaving this eggshell, he could obtain true freedom!
