After about three or four days, the laboratory was all done. Because the previous samples had been destroyed, only some data was left in Rocky's mind. As a result, he decided to spend some time collecting samples from some wild spirit-manipulated beasts and build a sample library, so that the samples could be tested at any time in the future.
Although the laboratory was built smoothly, the hatch of ten eggs was not optimistic. The situation was worse than he had expected. It had been a long time, but the ten eggs still didn't hatch. This made him very worried.
However, based on Rocky's experience, the Dark Heaven Insects must use their own strength to break the eggs. If the Dark Heaven Insects were affected by external forces like if Rocky tried to break the egg shell, it might frighten or even kill the insects.
According to Rocky's previous analysis, the reason why the hatch rate of the eggs was low was because the Dark Heaven Insects sometimes couldn't break their egg shells. Sometimes the problem was the eggshell itself. The hardness of the egg shell determined whether a Dark Heaven Insect could break its egg with its own strength or not. This problem was caused by premature fetuses, which was the reason behind his efforts to improve the pregnancy environment in the Dark Heaven Insect Queen's ovaries. But whether this solution could solve the problem with the egg shells was still unknown.
'If there is a way to strengthen the Dark Heaven Insects, then the egg shell will not be a problem, ' Rocky thought as he rubbed his chin. He was eager to make these eggs hatch successfully, so he allotted time to study it. However, it was impossible for him to strengthen the Dark Heaven Insects in the eggs. This thought was starting to frustrate him.
Then, Rocky suddenly heard a noise at the entrance of the cave. He looked up and saw a colorful glow coming towards him.
"Hey foodie! Why are you here?" Rocky greeted excitedly as he realized it was Rainbow Glow Unicorn.
The Rainbow Glow Unicorn walked to the front of the ten eggs. It glanced at them for a while. Then it turned to Rocky and cried a few times, as if signaling for something. At first, Rocky was confused, but then he realized what was bothering the Rainbow Glow Unicorn.
Rocky suddenly felt cold ice coming from his chest. He stretched out his hand and touched his chest. The ice power was produced by t
seventh Dark Heaven Insect came out.
However, there was no movement from the last three eggs.
Rocky had no choice but to stop activating the Sea Blue Magic Jade. He used the Mysterious Visual Evaluation Skill to check the condition of three eggs. He felt that the eggs were very cold, and there was no heartbeat rate. The Dark Heaven Insects inside might have stopped breathing, probably because they had stayed in there for too long, and thus died of suffocation.
Rocky stared at the three eggs that failed to hatch, feeling disappointed that he was not able to make all ten eggs hatch. However, there were seven of them that hatched successfully, which was already impressive. Generally speaking, only one or two of them were supposed to hatch successfully. But now seven hatched.
It could be said that Rocky made a miracle. If anyone found out, they would be shocked to their core.
Rocky then put away the three eggs that hadn't hatched, and planned to make them samples later. The eggs' research value was very high. They could let him know more about the Dark Heaven Insect, and allow him to raise the seven Dark Heaven Insects well.
However, in order to prevent the seven Dark Heaven Insects from running away, Rocky had to keep them in a cave first. He prepared for them the nutritious soil and the diluted magical saliva.
Rocky already had ten Dark Heaven Insects. In the eyes of other spirit manipulators, owning one Dark Heaven Insect was difficult. And yet Rocky alone had ten. This was enough to make all the spirit manipulators in the entire Wild Spirit Land jealous of him.
