How to become a mermaid

Chapter 10 The sea anemones finally hatched!

Time passed day by day, and more and more experimental records were carved on the slate.

[On the eighth day, the size of these sea anemone eggs increased again, and now each of them is as big as my thumb. I finally found something wrong. Generally speaking, the sea anemone eggs directly develop However, my batch of experimental subjects unexpectedly grew the same outer egg skin as other oviparous animals. ]
[Such anomalies make me a little worried, will the sea anemones grow smoothly?Will it turn into something weird?Are they disabled? ]
[On the ninth day, this has far exceeded the normal development time, and the number of sea anemone eggs has decreased again, and there are only more than 100 eggs left. The descendants of [003] are still the most surviving. Maybe my guess is right. Healthy and lively anemones can produce healthy offspring. ]
[The information of sea anemone larvae has already appeared in my eyes. Although their development process is a bit strange, they are still healthy little sea anemones, which makes me a little relieved. ]
[On the tenth day, the sea anemones did not hatch, and I only had less than a hundred sea anemone eggs left. However, I saw a few sea anemone eggs shaking, as if they were about to hatch? ]
[After waiting for a day, no sea anemone larvae hatched on the tenth day, maybe they will come out tomorrow. ]
[No. 11, a total of 23 sea anemone eggs vibrated violently on this day, I think they will hatch today!But...they failed!They failed to break out of their shells. After struggling for a while, the anemone larvae seemed to lose their strength and became trapped in the eggs. ]
[I opened the sea anemone eggs that failed to hatch, and found that the outer skin of the sea anemone eggs was tougher than I thought, and when I tore them apart, I felt like I was tearing the skin of a fish. ]
[Sea anemones are not creatures that break out of eggs, not to mention that the egg skin is so hard, their failure seems to be doomed. ]
[I've decided that when the rest of the anemone eggs hatch, I'll puncture their skins!] ]
Shaman Lair's experiment did not go well this time. Since it was the first hybridization experiment, he was completely inexperienced. From the initial development of sea anemone eggs to the current hatching of sea anemone larvae, he suffered setbacks.

But it doesn't matter, failure is the mother of success, and Samantel feels that he will succeed soon!
The time came to No.12 days.

“1，2，3…29…34。”沙曼莱尔在清点着他所剩无几的海葵卵。

From the time when the glass bottle was squeezed to the point where it is now sparse, these remaining sea anemone eggs have gone through a lot of trials to survive until now.

"There are 34 sea anemone eggs left, and 12 of them are descendants of [003]. This can already be called an anemone, right?" Shaman Lair shook the glass bottle and found that it was still [003] most descendants.

And when he shook the glass bottle, the sea anemone eggs inside started to move, and the first sea anemone egg was already shaking.

Immediately afterwards, more sea anemone eggs began to tremble, and the offspring of [003] in this glass bottle were trembling, as if they were about to break out of their shells.

Shamanleir observed for a while and found that although these sea anemone larvae were struggling happily, none of them could break through this hard outer skin and come to this beautiful ocean world.

"I need to help them." Samantel didn't hesitate anymore, he tore off the seaweed that blocked the mouth of the glass bottle, and poured out the sea anemone eggs.

Twelve sea anemone eggs floated in the water, writhing up and down with the movements of the larvae inside.

Shamanel grabbed a sea anemone egg, touched the sea anemone egg, and pinched it in his hand, feeling that the egg felt a bit like a soft elastic ball.

After he finished pinching, the sea anemone larva inside struggled violently, as if expressing dissatisfaction.

You still make trouble if you don't let me out?
If sea anemone larvae could talk, they would be cursing long ago.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I'll help you now!" Samantel said sorry to the sea anemone egg in his hand without sincerity, and put his sharp nails on the sea anemone egg.

With a light swipe, the sea anemone egg was cut open.

And the sea anemone larva inside... was also cut open from the middle by him!
The larva of this sea anemone grows into an oval shape, with countless tiny cilia on the body surface, which looks like a brush.

Too bad the bristle brush was split straight down the middle and it fell apart!
The sea anemone larva that had been split in half bounced weakly in the sea water twice, and soon there was no movement.

It was dead, killed by Shaman Lair.

Seeing the dead, motionless sea anemone larva in front of him, Shamanleer blinked blankly. He looked down at his sharp nails, and then at the smooth cut on the sea anemone larva.

Ah this... this is a bit embarrassing.

Samantel scratched his head a little guilty.

"Aha~ I'm really sorry, I didn't master the strength of the first delivery." Shamanleir stuck out his tongue.

The first apology was perfunctory, but this time it was sincere.

It's a pity that the little sea anemone could no longer hear it, and this lifeless mermaid ended its life in an instant.

Pushing the sea anemone larva that was split in half with his hands, after confirming that it was really dead, Shamanleir gave up on it and picked up another larva.

This time, instead of scratching it with his nails, he pinched the outer skin of the sea anemone egg, pulled it hard with both hands, and tore the egg apart like wrapping paper.

After tearing off the outer skin, the sea anemone larva inside quickly started to swim, and the cilia on its body surface stretched freely in the sea water, helping it move around.

【Name: Unnamed】

[Species: unknown sea anemone]

[Alienation degree: 17%]

【Status: Healthy】

[Special parts: none]

[Evaluation: Edible]

Glancing at the sea anemone larva, Samantel smiled gratifiedly.

His efforts were not in vain, and the first generation of hybrid sea anemones was successfully born!

"You were the first to be born successfully, so your name is [003-001]!"

Shamanleir gave the larva a name. The 003 in front is its parent's number, followed by its own number.

After [003-001], Shamanleir continued to help other small anemones to be born, and renumbered them according to the order of birth and the names of their parents.

In addition to the first unlucky egg that he accidentally cut open, there were seven sea anemone larvae that wilted after birth, obviously not in a good condition.

They didn't survive for a few minutes before they all died.

Throwing away the dead ones, Shamanleir's first experiment yielded a total of 26 sea anemone larvae.

At the very beginning, there were at least 10,000+ fertilized eggs of sea anemones, but it was only so few when they were born smoothly. Shaman Lair can only lament that he is not good at being the father of hybrid sea anemones!
Moreover, there is still a long process of growth and cultivation after that, and there is still a long distance from larvae to sea anemone. Shamanleir feels that his road ahead is still bumpy.

Hey... keep going!
For soft and cozy anemone beds, go for it!

　Sea anemones, like humans, are fertilized eggs that develop directly into young, but I write about oviparous here as variables brought about by hybridization.
