The End Of The World's Poisonous Mom And Monster Baby

Volume 2 Chapter 19 The Marvelous Ingredients

<<>>

For the first half of the night, it was completely tranquil. There wasn’t even the slightest cry of any animal or insect. Shao Qing understood very well that there was definitely a terrifying creature hidden in the dark, otherwise why wouldn’t there be any sounds at all?

Once the second half of the night arrived, Shao Qing could acutely hear some sort of sound. That sound was very strange. It was a bit muffled and sounded like someone was drilling a hole.

Raising her guard, she grabbed the handle of her knife. Originally covering its head with two big leaves, the sleeping Da Hua also instantly went on high alert and quickly spread open its layers of petals.

Yan Qiyue was also awake. Completely silent, he narrowed his eyes, his powers already brewing on his palm. In an instant, one corner suddenly ruptured and a milky white tentacle bore its way out of the ground.

The movement of the tentacles was extremely quick. Once it was out, it immediately darted towards Shao Qing. However, Yan Qiyue was even quicker. Extending out both his hands, he closed them together and caused the tentacles to be locked in place. Not allowing Shao Qing to make a move, the tentacles seemed to vibrate and shattered Yan Qiyue’s atmosphere lock.

Seeing the tentacles were going to penetrate through Yan Qiyue’s neck, Shao Qing’s knife was tossed over. The knife brushed past Yan Qiyue’s nose and cut off the front portion of the tentacle. Milky white liquid began spouting out.

At once, Yan Qiyue rolled backwards, dodging the liquid spraying out. His guess of it being poisonous was accurate. As soon as the liquid splashed onto the quilt, it corroded it so there was nothing left.

Cold sweat appeared on Yan Qiyue’s forehead. Lifting his head, he saw that after the tentacle squirmed a bit, it grew back.

F*ck, doesn’t this make it invincible?

Shao Qing, completely focused, held onto her knife. With her other hand, she gave it a wave and lush green vines came flying out and twisted around the tentacles.

Speedily, the tentacles once again burrowed its way back into the ground leaving Shao Qing’s vines to throw itself into the empty air. But she was not discouraged. Pulling Yan Qiyue, she was alert of her surroundings. Who knew when that tentacle might pop out again.

The surroundings were in complete silence for a long time. Not a tentacle could be seen. Having his heart squeezing tight, he anxiously asked: “What is that thing?”

During the split second he spoke, there was a movement underneath Shao Qing’s feet and the white tentacle once again poked its way through. Attempting to wrap itself around Shao Qing’s leg, Shao Qing quickly retreated back a step. With no time to pick up the distant knife, she just used her vines as a whip and lashed out.

Being tempered by Yan Qiyue these past two days, the whip has become a toy that she was extremely familiar with. When the vine came flying out, it came together with the tentacle. All at once, it tightened up. Originally in the middle of striking, the tentacle was restrained by Shao Qing.

That thing was very strong. It forcibly dragged Shao Qing as it attempted to escape. Struggling to keep her body stable, she desperately pulled in the other direction.

From what Shao Qing could see, this tentacle still had another portion buried.

The tentacle had the ability to regenerate. Beating it would only cause it to regrow the portion back.

Therefore to figure out how to deal with it, they must first determine what it was.

Using all her strength, she pulled another portion of the tentacle out. Then, as if it were a rubber band, it stretched out. Seeing this, Yan Qiyue rushed to give Shao Qing a hand. With their combined strengths, they were a lot stronger than the tentacle. Despite trying its best to pull back, it was pulled out inch by inch.

As the struggle continued, Da Hua came shifting over. Knowing what it’s master wanted, it lowered its head to drip out some of the digestive liquid onto the tentacle.

The corrosive ability was incomparable. Once it landed on the tentacle, white smoke immediately emitted. Shrinking back from the pain, it was then that Shao Qing and Yan Qiyue took advantage of this opportunity and pulled it out.

Once it was pulled out, Shao Qing could then clearly see the appearance of the thing. It was basically a long maggot. At the bottom end, there were even two small spots that were probably its eyes. At the position of its mouth, it was opened to reveal jagged sharp teeth.

What sort of creature was this?

A large white maggot that could control corpses? Could it be just like that tomb raiding novel? Was this some corpse maggot demon?

Once that creature came out, Yan Qiyue sucked in the cold air. Shao Qing didn’t recognize it, but he did. He was obsessed with researching the variation animals and vegetation after the apocalypse. He could probably speak about a large portion of these variation creatures.

He had seen something similar a long time ago. When they were returning from a successful mission from the city, one of their members had gone crazy and had bitten his comrade who lived in the same house as him to death.

After taking care of him, Qiao Mo had sent the person to Yan Qiyue to see what was wrong. After dissecting the person, he had discovered at the crystal source, there was a tiny bug. It was a smaller version of this big white maggot. One end attached to the person’s nerve and one end attached to the crystal source, the crystal source was almost completely absorbed by it.

After studying that bug for a period of time, he discovered it had the ability to control corpses. However, the controlled corpse would continue to rot like a typical corpse. If it weren’t for the case that the person and his comrades had been fighting zombies for so long and was covered with zombie blood causing him to reek, he would’ve been discovered earlier on.

Unfortunately, that bug was tormented by him and he ended up dying before he had finished his research on what kind of species it was. But there was one thing that was clear: this kind of bug could only live within rotting flesh. Losing its host and not finding a corpse to live in for a long duration would end with its own death.

Yan Qiyue quickly gave the simplest description of what he knew to Shao Qing causing her to frown. But she can’t be blamed, this creature was just too revolting.

While it was being bound, it continued to open its mouth to spit out some yellow mucus. This yellow mucus had strong corrosive properties. Landing on Shao Qing’s vines, it nearly dissolved it.

Suddenly turning its head, it bit on the vines. With its razor-sharp teeth being able to penetrate through crystal sources, biting off a vine was nothing.

As soon as it bit off the vine, the white bug wanted to run off. But Da Hua who was patiently waiting for its turn took the opportunity to savagely bite down on its lower half. Yet the bug was even more savage as it cast away its lower half and drilled into the ground.

“It ran off....” Shao Qing’s eyebrows pinched together. If this creature wasn’t finished off properly, it wouldn’t dare pop up, but it will definitely tail them, waiting for the chance to attack them.

This was very troublesome.

Bringing back Da Hua who had secretly swallowed the lower half of the white bug, she watered its head a few times then recalled it.

“There’s still some time before daybreak. Go sleep for a bit. It definitely won’t appear for the next little while.” Shao Qing once more took out a quilt and switched to a cleaner location to lay down.

“Not sleeping.” Yan Qiyue enthusiastically sat down near Shao Qing and spoke: “Let’s talk.”

He said talk, but the majority of the time was spent having Yan Qiyue speaking while Shao Qing listened.

In the end, Yan Qiyue suddenly asked: “What kind of men do you like?”
