Chapter 2670: childbirth

Fortunately, Ishtar was not mad enough to slap himself. He finally remembered what he had said before, nodded and agreed with Qiao'an's explanation.
"Yes, yes, we can't see the full picture of high-dimensional creatures! This is normal! Mitra, can you get rid of them?"
"This... I'll give it a try!"
Qiao An turned to face the corner of the wall, shook his eyes and gestured for spellcasting, waved a silver light curtain, and quietly dispelled the "powerful phantom", and those blurred images disappeared.
"Sovereign, I just performed the 7th ring of ‘Exile Spell’, successfully driving the projections of those high-dimensional creatures back to their original world, just like driving the avatar of the devil back to the bottomless abyss."
"Excellent, Mitra... You are very capable! I want to reward you!"
Ishtar was really fooled by Qiao An, struggling to remove a magic lens from his eye stem and reward her.
After thanking Qiao An, he took the lens to cast the appraisal, and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a "through lens" that he had not yet mastered the manufacturing method.
The ten supernatural rays of the beholder are all single attacks, so they are easily blocked by cluster magic such as "flying insects and beasts", and the powerful rays can be offset by the sacrifice of a small flying insect.
"Penetrating lens" is a magic device specially created to overcome this drawback. Wearing it on the eye stalk, the emitted rays can penetrate all targets on the path, causing equal damage or negative effects.
This lens is very good, but for Qiao An, the more valuable is the super magic art "ray penetration" attached to the lens!
As the name suggests, this super magic art can only be used with "ray" spells, such as "debilitating ray", "scorching ray" or "dissociation". At the cost of increasing the spell slot by 1 level, the magic ray of a single attack can be changed. It is similar to a "lightning beam" that can penetrate a series of targets within range.
Qiao An put the "Through Lens" into the storage bag, feeling very pleased, thinking that at last it was not a waste of work.
The exorcism scene she had just directed and acted in by herself worked well and successfully calmed Ishtar's nerves.
Joan and Saoirsa stayed in the palace, serving Ishtar until late the next day, and finally got through to the moment of childbirth.
At this critical juncture, Ishtar had to endure the pain that was so intense that it was indescribable. The main eye and ten stalked eyes all protruded from the eye sockets, full of bloodshot eyes, as if they might burst at any time.
Just when Qiaoan worried that Ishtar could not support it, the beholder queen suddenly let out a hysterical howl, and from the depths of her throat, she was struggling to expand. There was a creak of dislocation of bones. Then, her jaw unexpectedly fell. It was really dislocated, and it fell softly, his throat widened, and blood gurgled out.
The harsh and weird scene in front of him caused a strong impact on Qiao An's vision and spirit, and couldn't help but shocked him.
"Don't be afraid, this is a normal phenomenon during childbirth of our beholders." Saoirza quickly helped Ishtar wipe the blood spurting from his mouth, while calmly comforting Qiao An, "When you mature a little bit, also Will experience the pain of childbirth firsthand."
Qiao An shuddered again, absolutely not wanting to experience this kind of thing! Even a little envious of Saoirsa, wishing that she would be stimulated by some kind of mental stimulation, and she would be sterilized from now on, so as not to suffer this sin!
At this time, Ishtar's lower jaw has been decoupled from the jawbone, thereby maximizing the expansion of the oral cavity.
In Qiao An’s opinion, this behavior is similar to that of a python, in order to swallow a huge prey, to actively dislocate the lower jaw and expand the angle between the upper and lower jaws, but the process and purpose of the two are opposite: the decoupling of the python's jaw is for the convenience of eating. It is to regurgitate the uterus that has been swollen to the limit from the depths of the throat.
Under Qiao'an’s curious gaze, a ball of meat about five feet in diameter slowly squirmed out of Ishtar’s mouth. Under the lubrication of a large amount of plasma, she was finally vomited out completely by her, leaving only a slender one. The umbilical cord is connected to the mother's body and leads to the deep root of the tongue.
This big ball of flesh is the uterus of the beholder, which will fall off after giving birth. This is why most beholders can only give birth to one child in their lifetime.
There are only a few beholders, after the uterus falls off, a new uterus will grow in the body, laying the foundation for another pregnancy.
This rare phenomenon is regarded by the beholders as a blessing given by the "big mistress", but for the beholder who becomes a mother again, it is tantamount to suffering twice, suffering two sins, and saying it is a "curse". "On the contrary, it is more appropriate.
After all, Saoirsa has a lot of experience in delivering babies. When the rookie midwife Qiao Ann was still at a loss, she had already cast a spell to create a bucket of hot water, took a pair of shiny silver scissors, and cut the umbilical cord with a click.
At the same time, the broken umbilical cord quickly retracted into Ishtar's throat like a rubber band.
At this moment, Qiao An finally found a chance to help, cast a spell to help Ishtar heal and stop the bleeding, and then stretched out two eye stalks, held up Her Majesty’s chin, pushed upward with a click, and forced the dislocated joint. Reset.
Perhaps this reset method was too rough, Ishtar hissed in pain, his bloodshot eyes glared at Qiao An, suspecting that the black-hearted little nurse wanted to murder herself.
Qiao An quickly blessed Her Majesty the Queen with the 2-level spell "Pain Blurring", which temporarily reduced her pain to one-tenth of the normal level.
Ishtar let out a long sigh of relief, his face softening.
Just as Qiao An was rushing to take care of Ishtar, the meat ball just delivered by the Queen of Beholder, after getting rid of the drag of the umbilical cord, floated into the air by itself, beating rhythmically like a heart.
Saoirsa was holding big scissors and guarding the dangling meat ball with a solemn expression.
Under her gaze, the flesh ball burst out bleeding flowers, and then cracks appeared. A group of small figures tore through the uterus, drilled out on their own, stretched ten slender and delicate eye stalks, floating in mid-air.
Qiao An took advantage of the opportunity to help deliver the baby, while Ishtar and Saoirsa were not paying attention, quietly collected Ishtar's blood, put it in the reagent bottle, and then went home to perform the analysis.
The childbirth exhausted Ishtar's energy, closed his master's eyes tiredly, and issued a weak question.
"How many survive?"
"There is only one." Saoirsa replied in a low voice.
"Are the others dead in the womb?"
"Sovereign, there are no other cubs." Saoirsa turned around holding the newly born cubs, her face was weird, "There is only one cub in your fetus..."
A beholder gives birth to a maximum of twelve cubs in the womb, usually six or seven, or three or four as few as possible.
Like Ishtar this time, only one cub is born in one child. This is a rarer phenomenon than "one child with twelve treasures"!
