I Forged the Myth of the Ancient Overlords

Chapter 930: 929. Eye contact Chapter 930: 929. Eye contact Shia’s flashlight seemed rather dim compared to the car’s low beams, but it did illuminate the creature from different angles.

Her gaze fell upon the creature’s “arms,” which had multiple joints like those of a crab. At the ends were sharp, bone-like structures, resembling the hooked claws of an insect, sharp enough to pierce the skin and tear flesh apart.

Its body appeared to be covered in a layer of fine scales, which also resembled the chitinous exoskeleton of an insect, casting vague shadows under the low beams.

Looking toward its head, Shia then discovered that the creature had neither nose nor ears and she could not find any eyes. There was only a mouth, similar to an oral apparatus, surrounded by small, sharp teeth. Just one glance and Shia could imagine the gruesome scene of the creature chewing and grinding the limbs of animals, sending a shiver down her scalp.

Whatever it was, this was definitely not a creature that could have appeared through natural evolution.

With that thought, Shia turned her attention to the hive-like holes on its head.

Those holes were pitch-black, and their purpose unknown. Shia leaned in slightly, raising her flashlight to peer inside.

Suddenly, it seemed like something inside twitched. Shia blinked, unsure if it was an illusion or reality.

She kept a safe distance, observing cautiously.

The next moment, Shia saw an eyeball.

The dark pupil met her gaze, and in an instant, more pupils appeared.

These pupils were nestled within the “honeycomb” of the creature’s head, like sly seeds hidden inside a withered lotus pod.
