The insect egg was the size of a fist and emerald green. Through its crystal-clear membrane, one could see densely packed white filaments and a chubby green caterpillar coiled up inside.
By the lamplight, Chu Yin discovered countless white filaments growing from the inside out, rooting into the flesh around Wu Mu's abdominal wound like tree roots.
Whenever Wu Mu's skin was tugged, these filaments would extend outward, pushing up the dermal layer and forming earthworm-like ridges.
The stabbing pain made Wu Mu howl miserably. His face was red and covered in sweat, veins on his forehead throbbing as if they were about to burst, his entire back bending and shrinking like a cooked shrimp.
Wu Mu's screams echoed through the empty waiting hall, forcing Chu Yin to pull out a flat, metallic vodka bottle from her inventory, twist off the cap, and pour it down Wu Mu's throat.
