While Lu En was slowly controlling the development of a small society, accelerating the social process, and creating a group of workers with real ideological and practical abilities, Kara was not idle either.

What is she busy doing?

Pregnancy.

That’s right, it’s child care.

Or, it can also be called hatching eggs.

Barring some misfortune, true dragons usually fall into sterilization around the age of 1,500, and most female true dragons will attempt to lay at least two clutches of eggs before their breeding period is over.

Generally speaking, a true dragon will lay several clutches of dragon eggs before the entire breeding period of its own dragon is over, ranging from one to five eggs per clutch. If a female true dragon is happy to give birth to young dragons and take care of these little ones,

If it were worms, she would most likely have more than thirty cubs during the entire breeding period.

It sounds like a lot, but if you extend this production cycle to 1,500 years, it is very rare. A very hard-working true dragon mother gave birth to 30 baby dragons in 1,500 years, which is also an extremely rare thing.

Difficult achievement.

But generally speaking, the average female true dragon will have two to ten eggs before the end of the breeding period.

And Kara, compared to them, is even less.

After mating with Lu En, Kara also took the time to lay a clutch of eggs, two in total, when the camp was undergoing major changes. There were still about a hundred years left before her breeding period would end, and before that, the young dragons were far away.

It is far from possible for her to grow up to the point where she is separated from her mother. In other words, this will be the only clutch of eggs in her life.

The two dragon eggs are both black dragon eggs. The hatching environment is very demanding. They need to be soaked in strong acid at all times or buried in wetlands, mud ponds or swamps to hatch successfully.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of swamps in hell. Those swamps that breed man-eating frogs are excellent incubation pools. Kara made a nest in a swamp near the camp and concentrated on hatching eggs.

Although they say they are concentrating on hatching eggs, dragon eggs are actually not fragile. In fact, the shell of a dragon egg is very difficult to break even with a hammer. The young dragon is a model of tenacity. Dragon eggs that receive proper care from their mother are almost

There is a 100% hatching rate, and dead eggs rarely occur. You just need to place them in a suitable environment and be careful not to be poached.

Therefore, she just wanted to stay by Dan's side more out of her body's instinct.

Poaching is the biggest loss of dragon eggs, because dragon eggs have a strong life force. Inside an egg that is only as big as a basketball is the most powerful individual species in the world - a true dragon.

Dragon eggs have almost all the characteristics of a real dragon. There is an extraordinary reserve of magic power inside the egg, and... it can be used by humans.

Dragon's blood can greatly improve the physical quality of other beings, and egg liquid is even more effective, because it is essentially the dragon's majestic life energy that takes effect, while dragon's egg liquid has more, purer, and gentler

Easily absorbed energy, which was originally used to create a new dragon.

Dragon eggshell is an excellent material for primary armor. It is very light but stronger than steel.

Dragon's egg yolk is an extremely powerful alchemical raw material. After processing, it can be made into many kinds of potions. Moreover, there is also a material called soul steel.

It is a material refined from the souls of various creatures. It can make weapons or armor have the characteristics of certain creatures. For example, soul steel made from the soul of a hippogriff can allow the holder to gain the speed skill.

Therefore, many demons, high-level monsters, or the souls of strong people after death may become the material of soul steel.

Unfortunately, when the dragon was in the yolk, it already had a dragon soul.

Such precious eggs will of course be poached by various things, which makes any dragon mother never leave the eggs she laid during that period, and Kara is no exception.

During this period, Lu En would come often. This was the first time that he noticed that Kara's eyes left his body and turned to look at an egg.

But he was not jealous, because he couldn't take his eyes off the egg.

A very ordinary dragon egg, with an overall oval and streamlined shape. The color of the eggshell is jet black, with a faint purple light, and some scattered white dots on it. It looks like the stars are shining in the night sky, dazzling and beautiful.

.

Ordinary, of course, for a dragon egg, but as a dragon egg, this thing itself is not ordinary.

It is said that when Elaine was still an egg, her whole body was as shiny as gold. At that time, Ayouken had to turn off the lights in his dragon's nest because the brightness would dazzle his eyes if he turned them on.

Just right.

This is the mysterious knowledge that Elaine told Kara, and Kara told Lu En. It is estimated that only a few people in the world know it.

As for how Elaine knew about this?

Of course because she had seen it with her own eyes.

Hatchlings emerge from the egg fully formed and ready to face life. They can even fly and breathe dragon breath within an hour of birth. To do this, they need to wake up while still in the egg.

As a legendary intelligent creature, they already have self-awareness when they are in the egg. They can even communicate with their parents through the eggshell. Although they cannot speak, they can knock the eggshell or roll around inside to attract people.

Parents' attention.

There is a dragon knight in the empire who is deeply trusted by real dragons. She is a woman, and her partner is also a female dragon. Because the friendship between the two parties is so close, she is lucky enough to come when the female dragon is hatching its eggs.

Dragon's Nest is a guest.

According to her later memoirs, she saw with her own eyes the unborn egg rolling around in the dragon's nest and clanking against the pile of her parents' treasures. She was frightened by the sight of it, for fear of breaking the eggshell.

It broke and caused a miscarriage.

Fortunately, the dragon's eggshell is of very high quality and does not budge no matter how hard it is pressed.

Moreover, such active eggs seem to be a good thing for many dragons. Not all dragon eggs are so active. As mentioned just now, the dragon knight's real dragon partner laid a nest of eggs, but there was only one egg.

So active.

Hatchlings that start making things in the egg are generally considered to be healthier, more energetic, and will be more powerful in the future.

But that is still far away from Kara. Now, these two dragon eggs have just left their mother's body. It will take about a year before they can gain self-awareness, become familiar with their complex and delicate bodies in the eggs, and enjoy the gifts of the Creator.

For his own, extremely powerful body.

But even so, there are still only a few dragons that can grow to adulthood, and most of them will die within ten years of being hatched or hatched.

The reason is also very simple, that is, not all true dragons will take care of their children. Many times, some evil dragons will mate at will, give birth at will, and then throw them away at will, allowing the young dragons to grow on their own.

As for the dragons who are really willing to take care of their offspring, they are not willing to give birth so casually. Rather than giving birth to a large number that they cannot manage, they would rather have a smaller number and more companionship.

Therefore, many times, a real dragon couple with a strong relationship will only lay one clutch of eggs in their lifetime and only take care of this clutch of children.

A hatchling thus born will have two protectors and will likely enjoy security for the first few decades of its life, with a much greater chance of growth.

If the hatchling happens to not have a responsible parent, it will face a struggle for survival.

Therefore, newly hatched hatchlings will look for food almost immediately. The first meal of a hatchling left to fend for itself is often its eggshells, and they can only eat their own eggshells.

As for the hatchlings with better luck, they are often given some favored delicacies by their parents.

For example, the golden dragon will give his children a lot of gems, just like Elaine, she still likes to eat gems.

For more cruel dragons, such as red dragons or black dragons, parents will simply throw in a poisonous snake or wolf.

A newborn's first meal takes the form of live food, while a hatchling gets its first hunting lesson and first meal at the same time.

Because of such a harsh birth environment, almost all baby dragons will have the ability to fly and breathe within an hour immediately after birth. In fact, real dragons are born with different talents and skills based on the skills of their parents!

This innate ability called inherited memory is very terrifying. When the young dragon is in the egg, it inherits the practical knowledge and muscle memory from its parents. In this way, the inherited knowledge is often buried in the young dragon's memory and transformed into

His instinct.

This instinct is usually not noticed and used by newborn dragons, but if they need to use a certain ability, they will quickly recall it, then quickly learn it and turn it into their own innate skills.

For example, if Elaine gives birth to a baby, it is very likely that the baby will be able to sing as soon as it is born. Although she does not know what singing means, the instinct from her body allows her to flexibly control her voice and vocal cords to sing.

Make beautiful music.

However, Lu En does not expect his child to master any special skills because he is not a dragon.

If it is not a true dragon, but only a half-dragon, this instinct will still remain, but the effectiveness will be greatly reduced. After all, this is an ability unique to true dragons.

Kara looked at the two eggs with her eyes infatuated, but soon, she looked away, took a few steps back, and leaned her back on Lu En's chest.

Lu En hugged her, but his eyes did not leave the two eggs full of life.

To be honest, he had never imagined that his child was born from an egg, but what was the difference?

"Have you named them yet?" Kara rested her head on Lu En's arms.

"It's still early, let's wait until they are conscious." Lu En said in a calm tone: "Livia's side...how should I tell her that she has an extra pair of younger siblings?"

"Livia should be able to accept it, but... her mother's death has something to do with me, I'm worried..."

"There is no need to worry, and it has nothing to do with you. You were only level 7 at that time. Besides, after this incident, she should know why her mother died..." Lu En said this and sighed.

This was indeed a messy matter that kept getting sorted out. He never thought that things would get messed up like this.

After he divided himself into two halves, one half left with the thought itself and reached another world, while the other half grew by itself step by step through memory.

The two sides are almost equal to two people. Lu En on the other side has thinking, so he has been a top student since he was a child. He can easily understand other things that would take a long time to understand, easily memorize a lot of nouns, and save the top spot at will.

, and finally stayed at the Academy of Engineering.

On the other side, the other half who lost his mind but had memories left had a life of his own. He relied on his memory to learn to imitate the mage, and through what he recorded, he mastered Magic 1 and Magic 2 step by step.

Both sides have wonderful lives, and the other half who stayed here with pure thinking also met his lover, Livia's mother.

Later, he met Carla again, and at that time, Carla chose to become a maid because the wife's position was already occupied.

What happened next, Lu En only learned about it a few days ago, and guessed it through Ayouken's description, that is... Livia is the "hero" selected by the Destiny Weaver.

As a hero, you naturally have to make the "choices" that a hero should have. Therefore, Kara, who was still level 7 at the time, including Lu En's other half, and Livia, all became part of the "script".

The original script is likely to have Livia choose her own path after these times.
