Trident bug.
It gets its name from its long, narrow, cone-shaped head.
This insect is also called the "kissing bug," which sounds quite romantic, doesn't it? But actually, it's called that because it specifically bites various organs on the human face.
They especially like to put their lips on areas with thinner skin.
Such as the lips, eyelids, etc.
However, this insect does not simply bite; it sucks blood like a mosquito, piercing the capillaries under the skin with its long, narrow mouthparts, and it sucks a very large amount of blood. The mutated kissing bug is even more terrifying.
They can pierce through the fragile protective layers of humans.
It pierces directly into human arteries to suck blood; the weak, unable to resist, will be quickly drained of blood.
But that's not the most terrifying thing about him.
What's most frightening is that even if someone manages to escape the clutches of this parasite, once bitten, a type of parasite called Trypanosoma cruzi will enter the human bloodstream, eventually reaching the heart and multiplying rapidly.
This process is actually similar to AIDS – triatomine infection.
It is very difficult to detect, and its long incubation period makes it difficult to be aware of.
Eventually, arrhythmia, paralysis, and heart failure will occur, accompanied by symptoms such as cardiac hypertrophy. If the condition cannot be controlled, the heart will rupture and death will occur, which is almost certain.
Moreover, triatomine infestation is hereditary.
only……
These seeds are mostly distributed in the Americas. Although they can be found in other places, the numbers are small and they pose little threat.
But there were just too many kissing bugs in front of us.
Looking out, you can hardly see the boundary; is it millions or tens of millions?
If such a large number of insects were to infest Japan, the terrifying "kiss bug disease" would inevitably cause heavy casualties among humans.
"Damn bugs!!"
“I have to escape. Tell Leader Fujino to make the organization evacuate immediately! Fusang is too small... This number of kissing bugs is enough to stain the sky with blood and turn Fusang into a no-man's land.”
"Open up! Fire Serpent Dance!!"
Yamamoto shouted loudly.
With a wave of his hands, a large amount of flames spread out.
They transformed into fiery serpents that danced wildly in the air, instantly wiping out tens of thousands of insects, while a large number of insects swept across the sea.
Yamamoto seized this opportunity...
They decisively shook them off and then sped towards the city.
pity.
Although he was very fast.
But these kissing bugs were far more complex than he had imagined.
He had only walked a few hundred meters when a huge kissing bug flew over and blocked his way.
immediately……
It suddenly thrust out its sharp mouthparts.
"So fast!"
"A level seven kissing bug? We're doomed!"
Yamamoto looked horrified.
In the split second of life-or-death crisis, he barely managed to avoid being hit.
but……
This is, after all, a level seven mutated creature.
With a soft "pfft!"
A level 7 triatomine bug pierced his arm's main artery.
In less than half a second, his arm was drained of blood, and his whole body became extremely weak, beginning his death countdown.
Yamamoto wanted to resist, but he couldn't.
He could only watch helplessly as his body rapidly withered away, and with a thud, he collapsed to the ground in agony.
Before my eyes...
Suddenly a young man appeared.
No, it should be described as a half-humanoid creature.
It has a long, narrow nose, jet-black eyes with purple eyeshadow, six arms, and a pair of translucent wings on its back.
The person looked extremely eerie.
Upon seeing this.
Yamamoto then realized...
The young man in front of them was not human at all, but a highly mutated trident bug that had transformed into human form.
Despite his pain, Yamamoto still questioned, "You...where did you come from? What is your purpose in coming to Fusang? We Fusang have no grudge against you, why are you treating us like this?"
"Actually, you guessed right from the start."
The strange young man said calmly, "We did come from the Americas, but it's meaningless to say we have no grudges against each other. You are human and we are mutated creatures. We have different positions, so how can we have no grudges against each other?"
"What a naive idea. Humans are really stupid. I can't be bothered to say anything more to you."
After he finished speaking,
I glanced at the level 6 trident bug next to me.
The other party then inhaled sharply, and Yamamoto screamed in agony before dying.
The level seven trident bug respectfully asked, "My king, the port has been captured... what is the next step?"
The strange young man said coldly, "Kill all the humans in Japan. I want to make this place a springboard to set foot in Asia."
The level seven trident bug thought for a moment and said, "Kill them all? But we don't plan to keep any, so we can suck their blood from time to time... Wasn't that your original plan? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
The strange young man shook his head: "Fusang is too small. How many humans can survive? It would be good enough if the tribe could have a few meals. On the contrary, there are many, many humans in Asia, enough to feed the tribe to its heart's content, and there would still be some left over."
"But precisely because of this, the humans here must be much more powerful than those in Fusang, so we need to be a little more cautious. Once we've eaten all the humans in Fusang... this place will be both a springboard for our race and a backup plan."
They were previously in the Americas.
The reason we traveled so far to come here is mainly because there are not many humans left on the American continent, especially after the sea creatures landed and successively occupied a large number of coastal cities.
Humanity has been killed to the point of near extinction.
If there isn't enough food... then naturally you have to look for it elsewhere.
