Hayes: "!"
So ugly.
Absolutely hideous.
The cat was shocked.
Clear terror and disbelief showed on the beautiful big cat's face.
How could such a disgusting creature exist?
If the situation weren't so dire, Hayes would probably already be retching.
A giant silkworm moth caterpillar.
In simple terms, the larval form of a giant silkworm moth—a caterpillar.
But the one before them was clearly the king of all caterpillars.
No, a tyrant.
—Enormous, and grotesquely fat.
Its body was segmented, each section swollen with soft, bulging flesh, like the stacked rolls of a 180-pound man's beer belly.
From beneath every segment protruded a pair of thick, stubby, round legs, helping it crawl and climb.
This caterpillar's weight likely exceeded two hundred pounds.
Its skin was a vivid, almost bluish green, patterned with irregular black-and-white spots that made it look bizarre and unnatural.
