Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

The woman seemingly lost her balance and directly fell into the arms of the young man. A faint blush appearing on her face as she felt the firm muscles of the young man.

'Now that I look at him, he isn't that bad. Perhaps I should ask him for a dinner as a compensation.' The woman thought.

The young man watched on in confusion as the woman suddenly changed her vibe. He was fully prepared to fight her and knew that this was a common method of scamming. It wasn't his first time and he had seen many others do the same in other towns and cities.

He was going to voice out his mind, but realized that he had missed something. His eyes glanced at the ground and saw that the tiles in the ground were actually moving up on their own.

"What the..."

~RUMBLE~

But in the very next moment, the ground opened up swallowing them both.

~BOOM~

~SCREECH~

An ear piercing screech was heard in the entire city, as a large shadow was casted over it. The citizens all looked towards the source of it all in shock as a dark pillar had seemingly appeared out of nowhere.

"No wait... that's not a pill--" The unfortunate people didn't even get to speak much before hundreds of tentacles sprouted from the pillar before shooting towards them.

~CRACK~ CRACK ~

~MUSH~

The humans were directly grabbed by the tentacles and pulled into a bunch before being compressed into a mass of meat. The victims didn't even get to scream as the were pierced in almost an instant and death was decreed.

In less than ten seconds, Lin Wu had wiped out the entire market square of the city.

"You all will serve as the perfect first meal for me!" Lin Wu said out loud, spreading terror among the humans.

Those who were away from the market square had seen everything and were shuddering. They witnessed how the vendors and customers were pierced by tentacles and pulled back before being turned to mush.

"RUN!!!"

"A BEAST ATTACK! IT'S A BEAST ATTACK!"

The people didn't know who or what Lin Wu was of course, and thus the first thing they assumed was that he was a beast. After all, beast attacks and beast tides weren't uncommon in this part, and the city had actually had several strong beasts invade them in the past.

But they never expected the beast this time to be this large and strong.

Lin Wu didn't care what the humans called him, either.

'The more chaos they have, the better it'll be for me. Inaccuracy in the information spread will only confuse the powers, giving me more time.' Lin Wu thought.

He continued his rampage and hunted the humans down. Or more like his tentacles did the work, while he sauntered down the center of the city. In less than fifteen minutes, most of the humans of the city had already been killed by him.

In exchange, there was now a large hill of meat next to Lin Wu. It was wrapped with tentacles that were continually compressing and squeezing it.

Lin Wu didn't kill everyone in the city though. He still needed a few people to live and spread the tale. Even if Elder Guo had lived and probably informed his kingdom, it had only been three days since then.

It was doubtful if the Zhan kingdom had even learned of it. Or even if it had, they probably didn't know the details. After finding out about everything, they would still take at least a day to mobilize their forces after all.

And even that would depend on whether the Zhan kingdom wanted to be on the offensive or if they wanted to stay where they were and defend against the incoming monster.

After having finished the first city, Lin Wu looked at his gains.

"This is going to be the biggest meatball this world has ever seen!" Lin Wu proclaimed.

He then got to cooking, which was nothing but multiple tentacles pointing towards the meatball made out of minced human bodies and fire shooting out if it. A few other tentacles spun the meatball in mid air, making it looked like rotisserie meat.

After the meat ball was finally cooked, Lin Wu opened his mouth wide and swallowed it whole.

~BULGE~

His body bulged awkwardly as the meatball passed through his neck. While it all looked rather unnatural, Lin Wu's body was very flexible and this wouldn't damage it at all.

Using Chimeric Organogenesis, Lin Wu could easily shift his organs as well as make his skin and scales supple and stretchy. Besides, this was only a temporary state and Lin Wu's body rapidly started to digest it.

Harsh digestive juices that would even dissolve the hardest of metals acted on the human meatball, turning it into nutrients, vitality and spirit Qi for Lin Wu.

~DING~

Seeing the amount he had gotten, Lin Wu was pleased.

"For a city mostly full of low leveled cultivators, they gave more than the experts I ate in Tieba city." Lin Wu said with a little surprise. "Though I guess the numbers, I ate now are exponentially higher than then." He estimated.

The number of people Lin Wu had eaten in Tieba city was only a few hundred, as compared to the over a hundred thousand that he had eaten today. And this didn't even include the beasts that were in the city, too.

"Still, this is decent for a small city. A few more should easily be enough for a breakthrough." Lin Wu nodded his head in satisfaction.

Done with the first city, Lin Wu drilled back into the ground, before moving towards the next.

And in six more hours, he had eradicated another city. Twelve hours after that, the third city was gone too.
