Chapter 292 Strange Mutant
The antidote had been completely administered into Luo Hongyuan's body. Luo Zheng and his wife stared at him nervously, not daring to blink even for a moment, fearing that their son would be gone in the blink of an eye.
Xi Yu half-closed her eyes, focusing intently on controlling the direction of her mental energy. In addition to guiding the antidote, she could also smooth out his meridians and force out the remaining poison.
Time passed by, and during this period of quiet, only the sound of breathing could be heard.
Suddenly, Luo Hongyuan, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, began to convulse violently. His whole body curled up as if in a spasm, but because his limbs were bound, he could only twist his body in pain.
Cheng Lan immediately called out, wanting to go over, but was stopped by Luo Zheng beside her.
Luo Hongyuan's convulsions became more and more intense, his whole body was shaking violently, and bright red liquid flowed from his eyes, mouth and nose.
Faced with Luo Hongyuan's terrifying condition, Cheng Lan couldn't help but cry, while Luo Zheng was just putting on a brave face.
Yan San couldn't help but look at Xi Yu's calm face. She showed no sign of panic, and just looking at her calmed him down.
After a long pause, Xi Yu parted her lips slightly and said, "I'm out."
No one had yet realized what she meant, but they had all witnessed it firsthand.
On the bed, Luo Hongyuan lay unconscious, his nose bleeding profusely, along with a small, dark brown worm about the thickness of a little finger!
With lightning speed, Xi Yu used the prepared pliers to clamp one end of the worm and pulled out the entire worm, which was about three inches long. The worm was extremely ferocious and tried to attack her the moment it was clamped, but before it could bite down, it was stunned by her mental power.
Xi Yu calmly put the limp insect into a glass jar and casually tossed it to Yan San to keep, while Luo Hongyuan on the bed remained motionless.
She then took out a small tube of nutritional supplements and injected it into Luo Hongyuan; this was from her own stockpile.
"Marshal, Miss Xi Yu, what exactly happened to Hong Yuan..." Luo Zheng finally managed to ask, his scalp tingling with fear. He never imagined that his son had such a large worm inside him! And the instruments couldn't even detect it!
"This is... a mutant?" Yan San stared at the insect in the jar for a long time before blurting out in shock.
A mutant!?
Luo stumbled closer and stared intently at the insect inside the glass jar. The insect's body was rotten and swollen, which was indeed consistent with the characteristics of the mutated species!
He had never seen such a small mutant before. Mutants usually spread among animals, and the smallest of them are the size of a mouse. He had never seen an insect infected with them before!
No wonder the instruments couldn't scan this bug!
“The worms that were lurking inside him have been expelled, but the toxins they carried cannot be completely eliminated in a short time. He needs to take an antidote for a few more days, and his damaged internal organs also need time to heal.” After giving Luo Hongyuan two doses of nutrient solution, Xi Yu untied the ropes binding his limbs.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Lan hurriedly went to Luo Hongyuan's side and saw that his face had regained some color, his breathing had become much calmer, and the electrocardiogram next to him showed that his heartbeat had returned to normal.
Cheng Lan stood there dumbfounded in disbelief. After Luo Zheng touched her shoulder, she finally broke down in tears. The news that her son had survived allowed her to release all the pent-up emotions she had been suppressing for so long.
Luo Zheng's eyes also reddened, and he held his wife, choking back tears.
Xi Yu and Yan San silently withdrew, leaving the room to the family who had survived the ordeal. As for them, they still had to deal with this strange mutated creature.
