Chapter 5, Is this just an ordinary child

It is not because this inspection data is peculiar, but rather that this inspection data is exceedingly normal. It is as normal as that of an ordinary person.

Is this really just an ordinary child? Lan Xiao could not believe it, nor could any of the researchers on the plane!

Oh no! There is only the life energy of a hundred-year soul beast level left. What should we do?" Nan Cheng asked anxiously.

We will also take a piece of the eggshell back for research. Nan Cheng, come here and hold this child; we need to keep this eggshell as evidence of the成果 of our scientific expedition.

The rosy and tender little baby, with smooth and translucent skin, resembles jelly, with faint visibility of the blood vessels beneath the skin

He has teeth, which appear to be the kind that are pure white, just like the milk teeth of ordinary children. However, how can a newborn baby have a full set of neatly arranged white milk teeth?

Lan Xiao let out a bitter laugh, "According to the Federation's records on ancient soul beasts, as well as the information provided to us regarding divine-level soul beasts, after a soul beast of one hundred thousand years undergoes re-cultivation, it can at least maintain the energy level of a hundred-year soul beast, and it retains its original memories and intelligence. It will never shrink to the size of an infant, vulnerable to being slaughtered. Generally, it will transform into a child and possess a certain degree of self-preservation ability"

Could a child, discovered beneath the supercooled ice of the extreme north and hatched from an egg, be normal? There is no trace of any soul beast bloodline, no special energy or abnormalities; everything is as normal as it could possibly be. How is this possible!

Nan Cheng carefully held him in her arms and couldn't help but softly say: "He is so beautiful!"

Snap! Another piece, continue eating

Lan Xiao has always been decisive; after a brief moment of contemplation, he stated: "Let the child undergo a physical examination, allow him to continue eating, and towards the end, we will keep a small portion to take back for research."

In summary, this is a healthy and entirely normal human infant

Lan Xiao, who was just about to take the eggshell away, was also stunned in place

Crack, crack, crack! The eggshell continues to be eaten, and the little baby remains completely unaware of what is happening

It is ! ''

"If you take away his food, how can he not cry?" Nan Cheng said with a hint of sympathy

Lan Xiao is now somewhat bewildered. Including himself, everyone originally thought this would be a remarkable discovery, and it was even likely to be a significant achievement that would play an important role in the study of ancient soul beasts. However, the current situation suggests that they are likely to face a peculiar circumstance.

The other researcher beside him said, "Boss, could it be that the soul beast has been re-cultivated after one hundred thousand years?"

Lan Xiao苦笑着说："还能怎么办？太奇葩了，继续观察。这蛋里面真的是个孩子，一个从蛋里面出生的婴儿，你敢信吗？"

However, data cannot be fabricated; it is all derived from cutting-edge equipment. Perhaps the only difference with this child is that he is too normal. Ordinary infants may have some indicators that are either slightly low or slightly high, but he does not; he is completely normal.

Only then did Nan Cheng walk over, and when she caught sight of the small infant in the eggshell, her eyes were also unable to look away

While speaking, she brought the child to Lan Xiao's side. The moment the baby's hand touched the eggshell, the little wrist flexibly turned, grasping the edge, then breaking off a piece and bringing it to its mouth, continuing to eat with a "crunch, crunch," and indeed, it stopped crying.

Suddenly, the baby's hand paused for a moment, reaching out to grasp the surroundings, but it caught nothing. The piece of eggshell in his hand had already been consumed

"Boss, this might be a bit problematic!" Researcher Chen Wei said with a wry smile, "Not long ago, the Federation had severely punished a case of scientific fraud. We truly wouldn't be able to explain ourselves even if we had a hundred mouths!"

He has his eyes closed, but his black hair and long eyelashes have already grown. His small hands are holding the eggshell, continuously bringing it to his mouth, crunching it with a "ka ka" sound.

This ... ... however, we need to conduct research!" Lan Xiao said helplessly

Lan Xiao, Nan Cheng, and all the researchers present stared blankly at the inspection data before them

Nan Cheng was also a bit flustered, "I shouldn't have hurt him! Ah! It's the eggshell, he should still eat, quickly let him take another piece."

Wow, wow! He immediately began to cry, his loud cries echoing throughout the entire cabin

Lan Xiao opened his mouth, just about to speak, when Nan Cheng's report came again, "It has been ten years, only ten years of soul beast energy levels remain."

A normal embryonic baby has long been frozen to death beneath the solid ice

Nan Cheng hesitated as well; she certainly understood the importance of research. Moreover, the child that could emerge from the egg was truly extraordinary, especially considering that the egg she had previously been in had emitted an immense amount of life energy.

Fearing to hurt the child, he slowly reached out his hand and gently lifted the small infant from the crack of the eggshell. The baby was not heavy, weighing about six or seven pounds, with a soft and tender body, radiating warmth and a faint, delicate fragrance

Why are you crying

The reconnaissance aircraft is equipped with a comprehensive array of experimental devices, particularly for testing vital signs, which can be said to be fully equipped and is in no way inferior to a laboratory

What should we do?" Nan Cheng looked at Lan Xiao

The little baby, with a delightful "crunch, crunch," has already consumed more than half of the eggshell in just a short while. Meanwhile, the basic vital signs examination has also been completed.

A normally born infant is defined by the data it possesses, which is primarily situated within the range of normal values. The life energy of this child is also comparable to that of a typical infant, and no traces of any soul beast aura have been detected. However, this child is remarkably resilient; even during blood tests, he did not cry. This may be related to his continuous consumption of eggshells. When his skin was pricked, he merely furrowed his little brow and then resumed his "crunch, crunch".

Lan Xiao touched the surface of the egg for the first time, and it felt slightly warm to the touch. Aside from that, he could feel nothing else, as if there were no energy present within it

Another researcher, Li Tingyin, said: "It can't be that bad, we still have the eggshells here, right?"

Lan Xiao understood his meaning very well; otherwise, today's discovery would have been in vain.

Nan Cheng is not yet married, nor has she had any children, which startled her for a moment, and the others also became somewhat flustered.

Scientific misconduct ranks among the most serious crimes in the Douluo Federation. The reason is simple: a single instance of scientific fraud can potentially lead to catastrophic disasters for the Federation and even for humanity. The penalties for scientific misconduct vary according to its severity, and it is one of the few crimes in the Federation that can result in the death penalty. This serves as a constant reminder to researchers not to be overly reckless due to the allure of substantial rewards. Until one has absolute certainty, one must never hastily submit research results; otherwise, if accused of fraud, it could lead to significant trouble.

White | With a tender, rosy complexion, her slightly chubby round face is so delicate that it seems almost fragile, and there are two small dimples on her cheeks. She is truly as adorable as can be. In an instant, her maternal instincts overflowed unconsciously, and her gaze softened.

The other team members also saw it, didn't they? This child is truly beautiful and good-looking

Chen Wei said with a bitter smile: "This is the only hope left, hoping to discover something special from this eggshell. Otherwise..."
