The young man who suddenly barged into the Candy House was named Little Wang.
Nightmare Mother 98725 felt that this probably wasn't the young man's real name, but merely a title.
It knew...
Wang
Earlier, it had mistakenly interpreted "Little Wang" as "ruler-in-training" or "crown prince."
Because of this, 98725 had wasted its last mature spore on him.
But only after successfully parasitizing him did 98725 realize belatedly that it seemed to have made a mistake.
This Little Wang, like all the other hairless upright apes with little use, was only fit to become nourishment for its growth!
Inside the dream Candy House, Little Wang gouged out his left eye in front of Song Chu.
The rusty stench of blood filled the little house.
"I'll use this eye to exchange for a lifetime of wealth I can never spend!"
Pain was something he had long ago used as a bargaining chip.
Even as he dug out his own left eye, his expression didn't change.
This bizarre scene made Song Chu's scalp crawl. A chill swept through his entire body, and goosebumps rose all over his arms.
At the same time, Song Chu was horrified to discover that the hunger in his stomach had grown even stronger.
"If I eat this food, will I become like him?"
"Hang in there..."
"Just hold on a little longer!"
"Ma Ran should be here soon!"
Song Chu simply walked out of the Candy House, shut the door, and closed his eyes tightly.
Out of sight, out of mind.
When Little Wang dug out his left eye inside the dream Candy House, the golden ball hovering before the shelter entrance visibly grew a little larger.
98725 excitedly released even more dust.
If it could digest the brainwaves of everyone in this area...
