Originally, both Antova and Fulon wanted to watch the incubation ceremony, but Ove was extremely socially anxious, so only Lin Ke and John came to watch the hatching.
Ove lay on the ground drawing a magic circle, holding a faintly glowing magical stone in his hand, pouring his occupational power into his hand.
He first drew a circle with his elbow as the center, then drew a hexagram within it, and then wrote various ancient script secret texts in the empty spaces.
Words like "life," "revival," "activation," were combined through some mysterious patterns.
Moreover, the bloodline power input at each position was different, with varying highs and lows.
Ove didn’t take on a part-time job related to magic circles, such as [Secret Text Master] or [Magic Array Scholar]. He was a part-time [Enlightenment Teacher].
But he could still draw some basic magic circles.
Once the drawing was complete, Ove stood up and placed the egg in the center, nodding to Lin Ke: "Go ahead, it only requires a drop of fresh blood."
Lin Ke walked forward, reached the side of the egg, and extended his finger.
Ove waved his hand, and a current drew a drop of blood from Lin Ke’s fingertip, which dripped onto the eggshell with pale yellow patterns.
"Little Lin Ke, infuse your power into the egg." Ove stepped to the side and then prompted.
Lin Ke immediately mustered up the little bit of energy he had as a Level One practitioner and infused it into the egg.
In an instant, the entire magic circle was activated, and the patterns on it emitted threads of glow.
Lin Ke’s bloodline power or rather magic power was sucked dry and he retreated, with Ove immediately stepping forward to infuse magic power.
It required magic power to activate the magic circle, and Lin Ke had too little magic power, serving only as the "seed" to start the magic circle.
Ove was the main force growing the seed to break through the soil.
This elderly man in his hundreds took a step forward, and the surging magic power whipped up a small magic whirlwind around him.
"Teacher’s magic power is truly strong."
Lin Ke sincerely admired and envied.
"In the future, you’ll certainly be stronger than me."
Ove smiled kindly, standing firm and letting the egg absorb his magic power.
Ove’s magic power was still surging, and Lin Ke smiled at John: "John, see, we really need to work hard, the teacher is our role model."
Ove’s mustache twitched, and he somewhat shyly tightened his grip on the magic staff: "Hmm... The foundation must be solid."
John nodded with a semblance of understanding.
Lin Ke was left in awe: "John, look, I could only hold on for a few seconds, but Teacher Ove is truly amazing."
"Mmm, mmm, mmm." John nodded vigorously; he wasn’t even a Level One practitioner yet!
Ove hid the freshly depleted magical stone with his left hand, and with a feigned calm, said: "Little Lin Ke, your pet is very gifted, it absorbed almost eigh... almost fifty percent of my magic power."
He enjoyed the praise from Lin Ke, feeling like a grandfather telling stories of the past, then being admired by his grandchild.
The feeling of being admired was wonderful.
Although... although he was almost drained!!
"Teacher, are you alright?"
Upon hearing that half of Ove’s magic power had been absorbed, Lin Ke was both worried and delighted.
Worried that Ove might not have enough magic power, but delighted that his pet was indeed gifted.
Ove finished absorbing the magical stone in his hand, quietly replaced it, and was secretly amazed.
His long-deceased teacher had also given him a pet, which was an ancient dragon egg.
But even that dragon with "excellent" bloodline only absorbed about level twelve or thirteen magic power.
However, this egg had already absorbed about level eighteen magic power from Ove!
As a result, he had to use magical stones to supplement magic power, and he had already emptied four or five.
As the egg absorbed a vast amount of magic power, the pale yellow patterns on the eggshell became vivid, turning into a noble golden color, with the patterns seeming to animate and move around the eggshell.
Lin Ke: "Teacher, your magic power is as unfathomable as the Orland Lake."
Lin Ke mimicked Butler Billy’s tone in his praise.
Ove: "Hehe, your pet may truly be remarkable, so I’m reassured about the future."
Ove thought gently to himself: How wonderful! Having a disciple feels great!
So impressive! Young Master sounds like Butler Billy!
Lin Ke: "Teacher, your magic power is comparable to the endless celestial sea in the far south."
Lin Ke: Hmm, what’s teacher holding in his left hand?
Ove: Hmm... having a disciple is nice.
After an hour and a half.
Lin Ke: "Teacher, you..."
Ove waved his hand, stopping Lin Ke, and exclaimed: "Something’s wrong! It’s too powerful! I’ve never encountered such a bloodline!"
Limitless magic power had been absorbed by this egg!
Just as Ove finished speaking, the light from the magic circle in front of him gradually faded, entirely absorbed by the egg.
"Terrifying!" Ove took two steps back, though his expression remained unchanged.
Ove estimated in his mind, this level of magic power was at least legendary.
An entire legendary level of magic power had been infused!
It’s known that beyond level fifteen, each level’s gap is enormous, with the gap between level twenty and twenty-one being like a chasm.
At half an hour, it was already level twenty, and after over an hour, an entire legendary level of magic power had been infused; now approaching an hour and a half, the amount infused was unknown.
"Teacher, does this mean my pet’s bloodline has great potential?" Lin Ke’s eyes lit up.
Ove silently stored the magical stone and smiled slightly: "Yes, what I mean is... it might have the bloodline talent of ’reaching the pinnacle.’"
He didn’t mention the Andrew level, always believing that there should be ten more levels set between that level and reaching the pinnacle, as the gap was even greater than between levels one and twenty for practitioners.
"Reaching the pinnacle?!"
Upon hearing Ove’s words, Lin Ke was astonished.
Andrew level ranked first, and reaching the pinnacle was second.
This pet... no wonder it could trigger the "luck" bloodline’s pulse!
While they were talking, a crisp sound from the egg drew all three of their attention.
On the eggshell glowing a faint golden yellow, a small hole suddenly appeared, with seven or eight cracks around it.
Lin Ke immediately felt a sense of intimacy and connection with the life inside the egg.
"Little Lin Ke, quickly step up."
Lin Ke instantly responded and ran over to squat down.
Ove then gestured for John to step back as well, both of them standing at a distance.
Because many animals will recognize the first sight they see after birth as their closest kin.
Of course, except for some inheriting races like dragons that have consciousness in the egg.
It seems this is not a dragon egg.
Ove and John stood by, and Lin Ke squatted, all full of anticipation.
But after a few minutes, the egg did not change anymore.
Some more time passed...
"Not good, Little Lin Ke, quickly break the eggshell! Otherwise, the magical beast cub might suffocate!" Ove suddenly seemed to remember something and exclaimed.
Looking at the eggshell before him, Lin Ke frowned.
Should... he break the eggshell?
