"How is that possible??" Bobby argued. Even though Noko had eaten so much, how could his body be so weak that he had edema so that he could maintain a normal body shape?
Mu Ningxue frowned slightly, her appetite increased, but her body was extremely weak. Wait, could it be that there is some kind of parasitic organism in his body? But if it is really a parasitic organism, why has no one discovered it until now?
As an international bounty with a bounty pool, there are definitely many hunters who want to complete this bounty. How could there be no capable people among them? Someone must have thought of this obvious point and pursued the clues. To this day, no one has solved it, which shows that they
All failed.
"Is it some kind of parasitic organism?" Although Mu Ningxue thought it was unlikely that it was a parasitic organism, she still expressed her thoughts.
"You guessed it right!" Lingling confirmed Mu Ningxue's guess.
"Are you saying that my brother is parasitized by some unknown creature?"
"Well, it shouldn't be wrong!"
After saying that, Ling Ling trotted into the house and brought out the iron basin filled with viscous blood.
Thinking back to what Lingling just said, could it be that that unknown parasite is in this blood basin?
Lingling found a filter and asked Qin Shaoqing to help hold it.
Qin Shaoqing took the filter, and then Lingling placed the basin of viscous blood on top of the filter and began to pour it down.
The thick blood seeped through the gaps in the filter, making Bobby on the side feel extremely complicated. Even he was panicking when he saw this bloody scene. This little girl could be so calm and composed, which is worthy of her age.
To become a master hunter, no one else has this kind of psychological quality.
The blood gradually seeped down, and everyone noticed that something that looked like a blood clot was squirming in the filter.
"What's this?"
"Go get some water." Lingling instructed Bobby who came over to work.
Bobby brought water, and Lingling poured the water directly on the squirming blood clot. However, the strange thing was that as the water washed away, the squirming blood clot seemed to dissolve and just disappeared. But look carefully.
If you do, you will find a strange little bug on the filter whose body is completely transparent and almost invisible to the naked eye.
"Why is there nothing?" Bobby said he didn't see anything.
"It's still there, please take a closer look." Lingling said.
Bobby looked carefully and finally found the strange transparent little maggot.
"What kind of creature is this?" Mu Ningxue asked. Although she is not as good as Jiang Yu, she is also the type who has read many books. This is the first time she has seen this strange creature. Is the drowning curse related to it?
"You don't know that it's normal. They are still in their larval form now. Only by entering the ocean and using sufficient water as nutrients can they quickly grow into their true form." Lingling said.
"True form?" Mu Ningxue was a little curious about the true meaning of this word.
"Yes, this is a weird creature called jellyfish maggot. The most terrifying thing about it is that when they are in their larval form, they are equivalent to an embryo that can be shaped at will. Basically, whatever creature they get entangled with, they will
Can grow into that kind of creature." Lingling explained.
"There is such a weird creature?" Mu Ningxue frowned.
"Although it sounds unbelievable, it is the fact. This is the first time I have seen living jellyfish maggots. I can study them at night!" Lingling's eyes could not hide the excitement.
It can grow into entangled creatures and parasitize humans. Suddenly, there was an extremely terrifying speculation. Mu Ningxue suddenly asked in a rather complicated tone: "You said that jellyfish maggots are related to the drowning curse. Could it be that those
people……"
"Yes, jellyfish maggots can naturally turn into humans." Lingling said the chilling news in a calm tone.
Mu Ningxue was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Bobby on the side couldn't accept it at all: "What are you talking about? How could my younger brother and my older brother be transformed by such strange maggots! Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
"This can only be regarded as speculation right now. I can't get a definite answer until I do some research." Lingling glanced at Bobby who was losing his composure.
"By the way, on my way here, I heard someone discussing that a huge remains suddenly appeared on the beach?" Lingling looked at Qin Shaoqing.
"Yeah" Qin Shaoqing nodded lightly.
"I hope this thing is not responsible, otherwise this city may face a big crisis." Lingling said in a deep voice.
Lingling took the jellyfish maggot away to study until late at night, and then Lingling called Qin Shaoqing, Mu Ningxue and Bobby to the beach.
At this moment, Lingling was holding a small tablet computer with a small red dot in the center of the screen.
Then Lingling opened the box containing the jellyfish maggots and put them back into the sea.
Due to the transparency of jellyfish maggots, even if you hold them in your hand, it is difficult to distinguish them with the naked eye, let alone enter the ocean.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Bobby said quickly when he saw Lingling releasing the jellyfish maggots into the sea.
Glancing at Bobby, Lingling began to explain that the reason why no toxins, curses, or signs of parasitism could be detected in those who died due to the curse was that they disappeared when they entered the water.
The increased appetite is also because the evil maggots are extracting energy from the host. Once the host is drained of energy, it will turn into a terrible "drowning" appearance.
Lingling then continued to explain that the jellyfish maggots that can parasitize humans have evolved in recent decades... Once the maggot embryos mature in the parasitic human body, they will yearn for the endless ocean, and then they will...
Sexually evacuates the host's body functions, and uses mental control to control the host to go to a place with water...
After listening to Lingling's detailed explanation of the entire process of maggot implantation, parasitism, growth, and escape, Bobby, who often went swimming in the sea, felt chills all over his body.
"What a terrifying life form, it's almost impossible to guard against under normal circumstances!" Mu Ningxue said.
"I have carefully studied and analyzed it. The life cycle of this kind of jellyfish maggot can actually be divided into three forms. The first form is the parasitic growth stage I just mentioned, and the second form is when they break away from the host's physical strength.
When they enter the sea, they still look like newborn babies. They need to be hunted and grown step by step before they can become the final complete form." Lingling said.
"Then what is their complete body shape?" Bobby asked.
"This is what we need to track now. I have carefully studied and analyzed the larvae of this jellyfish maggot. It does not have any vaccine tissue, so I guess that they may need to become a complete body before they can have vaccine tissue.
"
"If the vaccine tissue can be extracted and studied, and the International Magic Association distributes the vaccine around the world, does that mean that some people will inevitably be parasitized by jellyfish maggots in the future, and there will be no so-called drowning curse?" Mu Ningxue
