Chapter 110 The Pterosaur Egg is About to Hatch
Xia Ye waved his hands repeatedly, "I don't know how to do this, you do it!"
Daigo laughed: "This is actually much simpler than an academic conference."
Seeing that Natsuno was still waving his hand, Daigo's smile became unfathomable: "Actually, there's no need to worry."
"Although it has a lot to do with you, it's actually not that important."
"What everyone really wants to see are fossil Pokémon. You can just stand up there and put the Omanyte there."
Daigo made a placing motion with his hand, his smile remaining unchanged.
"The reporters will naturally be snapping photos of the ammonites like crazy; they won't care about anything else, you know?"
"After they finish taking pictures of the ammonites, you can tell them about the follow-up plans."
"Then you can leave amidst applause from the audience, and it will be a perfect ending."
Xia Ye suddenly realized: First, let them take photos, then promise them a rosy picture. I get it!
You should have just told me you were making empty promises to them. I've had my fill of empty promises back on Earth, so I know how to make them!
Natsuno nodded: "Let's go back to the lab first. We need to take the Omanyte down so they can take pictures of it, right?"
Upon arriving at the laboratory floor, Xia Ye first went to check out the ecology room.
They discovered that there was an extra Omanitan in the room, and the two little creatures were swimming happily together in the pool.
"Oh, the other Omanyte egg has hatched too, right? Let's take both of them down for them to take pictures later."
Natsuno and Daigo returned to the laboratory room, where Anthony and Blaine were struggling to move some incubation equipment.
Looking around, there were 20 incubation devices in the laboratory, making it feel quite crowded.
The eggs inside varied in size, pattern, and shape, dazzling Natsuno.
Xia Ye quickly went up to help Anthony.
"These were all bred from fossil genes? So many?"
Daigo, with a hint of apology on his face, pointed to the 10 eggs that had been placed separately on the far right.
"Because I really want to know what fossil Pokémon in the Hoenn region look like."
"I sent a private plane yesterday to bring over some of my treasured fossils from my home."
"These 10 are fossils I brought and brought back to life; there are two different kinds of eggs."
Six hundred and sixty-six, that's outrageously extravagant!
Natsuno made a gesture of admiration and began to examine the eggs.
Five purple flowers with long pink stripes—Natsuno recalled that, judging from their appearance, they should be tentacle lilies.
The other five grayish eggs with feather-like patterns are most likely eggs of ancient feathered insects.
Natsuno suddenly remembered that Cradle Lily and Ancient Armor seemed to be in Daigo's team.
Without further ado, we'll immediately equip Daigo with it after he's revived!
Natsuno looked to the other side, where the pattern of the four beads looked very familiar, like that of an ammonite.
There are also 4 that are entirely brown with red dots, and judging from their shape, they should be fossil helmets.
The last two purple wing-shaped patterns should both be pterosaur patterns.
One of the pterosaur eggshells suddenly lit up, attracting everyone's attention.
Natsuno exclaimed in surprise, "Photographer! The egg is moving!"
Anthony reached out to try and hold down the excited Natsuno, but the latter moved too fast to catch him.
Seeing this, Anthony could only smile helplessly, wave his hand, and let Natsuno make the arrangements.
Daigo quickly carried the camera that was placed in the corner of the laboratory over, fixed it in place, and started filming.
Natsuno suddenly realized that pterosaurs were quite large, so he quickly stepped forward and opened the incubation device.
In fact, Pokémon eggs vary in size; for example, a Pteranodon egg is more than a meter tall and looks enormous.
Natsuno thought for a moment, then lifted the egg: "Let's go to the ecology room!"
Blaine led the way and protected the egg, while Daigo quickly picked up the camera.
Xia Ye placed the egg on the open floor of the eco-room and wiped the sweat from his brow.
A question suddenly came to mind: "I noticed that the eggs of Omanyte and Pteranodon hatched in just one day."
"This isn't normal, is it? I remember that under normal circumstances, an egg takes at least ten days to hatch."
Anthony and Blaine stared intently at the glowing egg before them and nodded.
"Perhaps this is the unique feature of genetic engineering, but the specific reasons are unknown."
"But what we do know is that genetically modified eggs absorb almost twice as many nutrients as normal eggs."
Just as they were talking, the light shining on the surface of the egg suddenly dimmed.
Natsuno's eyes widened: "What's going on? It's not hatching again?"
Anthony remained calm: "This is normal. It will light up again in a bit."
"It's actually just the flashing before hatching, but the frequency is slowest at the beginning and gradually increases later."
"They will hatch in about an hour after the first light appears. I just wanted to remind you, so don't rush."
Natsuno's initial excitement was abruptly interrupted: "Ah, there's still an hour left?"
Looking at the egg again now, there was no movement on its surface, as if the light just now was an illusion.
As Natsuno thought about the press conference, a new idea automatically popped into his head.
"Daigo, quickly arrange a press conference! Get everyone to the open space in front of the building."
Daigo was a little confused: "Um, isn't it better to do it in the conference room?"
Xia Ye shook his head: "Just listen to me. An open space is best. Quickly send someone to make arrangements!"
"You said it yourself, they're here to photograph fossil Pokémon, so what difference does it make where they photograph them?"
Daigo nodded and called his secretary to make new arrangements.
Natsuno glanced at the motionless egg again, then returned to the lab to check the gene analyzer.
The dream eyelashes I got yesterday are still undergoing genetic testing, and the progress is barely close to 60%, which is very slow.
At this moment, Daigo also came over and started talking about other things.
"Natsuno, I've arranged for the potion you sent me yesterday to be made, but it will take quite some time."
"After the samples are produced, they must undergo multiple rounds of review, including component analysis and drug clinical trials, etc."
"It will take at least 3 months to complete, and mass production can only begin after all the approvals are obtained."
Natsuno frowned: "Three months? That won't do. I need it urgently."
"You can produce a few samples first; we don't actually need to arrange the others."
"Gene stabilizers, there's actually not much of a use case for this stuff right now, you figure it out yourself."
Daigo nodded: "I can give you a sample in about three days."
After glancing around, Daigo lowered his voice and whispered a reminder to Natsuno.
"Unapproved drugs that cause harm to people or Pokémon will be seized by regulatory agencies!"
"There was a case where someone committed a serious offense and spent their entire life in prison!"
Natsuno patted Daigo on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I took this out. I know what I'm doing."
Since it's a system product, there's no such thing as a security risk. Even if there were, the system would definitely explain it clearly.
Seeing Natsuno's certainty, Daigo felt somewhat relieved.
But he still walked to the side, took out his phone, and urged the R&D staff to speed up the process.
"Drug development team, speed up the process and get the results submitted for approval."
"For every day you arrive earlier, everyone will receive an extra month's salary as a bonus!"
Natsuno overheard Daigo's words and opened his mouth wide: Is this the power of money?
Daigo had just hung up the phone when he received another call.
After saying "hmm" a few times, he hung up and looked at Natsuno.
"The outdoor press conference area below has been set up according to your requirements, and most of the reporters are in place."
"Protagonist, it's time for you to arrive."
