Parasitic Abyss

Gu Experiment (Day Five)

Half the time had passed. Based on previous experiments, the total number of roundworms inside the subjects should have dropped to around a thousand by this point. Those thousand were the true elites, difficult to kill easily. The remaining time would then be spent determining the strongest among them.

However,

the total number of roundworms inside William remained unchanged: ten million. Not a single one had died, and they continued moving strictly according to the formula deduced by the researchers.

During these five days, he had made no movements either. He remained in the same cross-legged position, and a faint smile even occasionally appeared at the corners of his mouth.

When William arrived at Black Roundworm Company's headquarters,

learned the truth about the headquarters, witnessed the technology contained in the guest rooms, and saw Orlena describe the Gu Experiment, a completely different idea quickly took shape in his mind.

William's physical body was already perfect enough, and he also had Little Grape's existence and assistance as an "external parasite." Once Little Grape completed the path related to the Evil Sun and returned, the "internal parasite" would be completed as well.

Therefore, he had no need for a parasite at all. Even the 'Parasite King' obtained through the succession mechanism of the Parasitic Main Nest would be 'surplus' to someone like him, who already had Little Grape and Yellowhide.

The true reason William wanted to participate in the Gu Experiment was not the experiment itself, but the full ten million parasite eggs that Black Roundworm Company had painstakingly cultivated through 'talent pairing' and 'genetic screening.'

If these eggs reached the market, they would definitely sell for astronomical prices. Even the Duke would be greedily tempted.

Moreover, William had discovered while bathing that the 'black roundworms' seemed to
