In his rented room, Shao Zifeng put away the remaining energy potions and gently touched the Elemental Egg, which was deep in slumber.
Today marked the third day since the Elemental Egg began absorbing the Elemental Potion Type VIII. Besides some turmoil during the initial fusion, the little guy now spent over 20 hours a day sleeping. Once the two potions were fully consumed, hatching shouldn't be far off.
After storing the silver-white box in the drawer, Shao Zifeng stood up and looked around the empty room, feeling an inexplicable sense of despondency. Over the course of three days, he had sent away the white cat, the White-headed Bulbul, and the small earth dog.
The white cat had returned to its owner, and the White-headed Bulbul and the earth dog had each found their own homes. His platform account had swelled with a sum of several hundred thousand, yet his heart... it felt hollow.
