Devouring: From the Start, I Have a Zerg Larva Clone

Qin Mu transmigrates into the body of one of Luo Feng’s classmates. He misses the mark on the college entrance exam by a single point, and an old injury puts an end to his path as a martial artist. Just when all hope seems lost, an insect larva that has slept for who knows how long awakens and becomes his clone.

The insect race is one of the six peak races. Devouring, evolving, and mutating are in its nature. The larva first devours 150 kilograms of monster meat and transforms into a worker insect: two meters long, with a shell that can withstand light weapons and enough strength to lift dozens of times its own weight. The worker insect’s feedback immediately makes Qin Mu a quasi-martial artist: a punching force of 932 kilograms and a speed of 27.5 meters per second. In a single night, he goes from a cripple to a genius.

Wang Qing brings him a cell-repair serum normally reserved for the military. At 200,000 yuan per shot, it isn’t available on the open market, but Wang Qing injects Qin Mu without hesitation. His old injury heals, his nerve response speed meets the standard, and he’s sure to pass the assessment at the end of the month.

While Luo Feng is still working toward the martial artist assessment, Qin Mu already has his sights set on the monster hordes in the wilderness. He isn’t concerned with winning or losing in one city or one territory. He plans to nourish his insect swarm on the flesh of countless monsters, then let the swarm help him rise. From Yangzhou City to the vast reaches of space, his journey has only just begun.
