Chapter 1361: Chapter 608: Human-Insect Body

"Captain Song, help me prepare some materials."

"No problem!" Song Zhenrong’s spirit was lifted.

He wasn’t afraid of spending money, he was just worried about Ding Hui’s silence.

Listening to Ding Hui report a list of materials like menu items, he quickly noted them down carefully and then exited the room, hurriedly leaving to personally prepare the materials.

He had some ordinary medicinal materials at home, but the precious ones needed someone to be sent for purchasing right away, and some unheard-of items might require lowering one’s face to ask some people.

He would prepare all the items as quickly as possible, but it would inevitably take some time, so he could only send capable materials to the room in advance.

After Song Zhenrong left, only Fang Yu and Ding Hui were left in the room.

"Diao Deyi, we might spend some time here, so... why don’t you go out and take a stroll?" Ding Hui spoke.

Her treatment process was comparable to an experiment, and the duration was uncertain.

She might enjoy it herself, even feeling faintly excited, but for those not interested in such affairs, staying here was akin to confinement.

But Fang Yu shook his head.

Song Xi with three thousand blood, even in an injured state, Fang Yu wasn’t at ease leaving Ding Hui alone in the room with such a thing.

After all, Ding Hui only had 100 blood in total. Though she had some means, how strong could she be?

In front of a vice captain level combat power with three thousand blood, fragile as paper.

If anything unforeseen happened, Ding Hui couldn’t beat this thing.

So Fang Yu didn’t intend to leave.

"I’ll just sit here, you go ahead with your work."

Ding Hui’s eyes blinked, filled with laughter.

"Worried about me?"

"...Go do your work!"

Seeing Fang Yu turn his face away, Ding Hui laughed playfully.

Soon Song Zhenrong delivered the first batch of materials.

This first wave of supplies was the most common materials, which Song Zhenrong acquired quickly.

The subsequent materials would take some time, arriving one after another.

He expressed apologies for the matter and retreated to wait outside.

Ding Hui waved it off, unconcerned.

As long as the materials arrived.

"Alright, Miss Song, let’s begin. It might hurt a bit, but bear with it. It’s all for restoring your original appearance."

Song Ci said nothing, just gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, nodding repeatedly.

To return to her original appearance, enduring pain was not just about eating bitterness; she was willing to give half her life.

Only after losing it did she realize how much she cared about her face, her human appearance.

Ding Hui began to busily work.

First working on the skin, carefully collecting some naturally secreted membranes from it, then lightly cutting into the edematous skin surface with a small knife.

Splatter!

Sticky, greasy liquid like thick oil mixed with blood flowed out.

Fang Yu even felt the ratio of blood to oil in Song Xi’s body might have reached one-to-one...

Though Fang Yu didn’t understand Ding Hui’s methods, the treatment process was actually traceable.

Overall, it was quite academic, starting from analyzing the patient’s mutated characteristics, parsing each abnormal feature, and using various materials for property analysis.

Once roughly confirmed, she would proceed to the next targeted steps.

Since Song Xi’s appearance was practically caused by Ding Hui, she quickly completed the first step - the patient’s body check.

The nature changes, though significantly deviating from initial expectations, Ding Hui knew well whether the root cause was some toxin or Insect Demon.

Just treat the symptoms.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t report ’menu items’ to Song Zhenrong so fluently and confidently.

For treating a completely unknown patient, what medicine to use and its potency were unknown, let alone knowing which materials were needed, directly reporting them for others to prepare.

As Ding Hui got busy, she concentrated intensely, occasionally muttering in excitement, speaking words Fang Yu didn’t understand.

Things like shared information elements, insect eggs’ Life Fluid extraction, multiplied drug stimulation, etc.

Fang Yu was like a brain-empty person, though in the room, his attention was already scattered.

However, if Song Xi on the bed made any move, he would instantly react and rush over.

As for Song Xi’s occasional whimpering, seemingly enduring pain sounds, Fang Yu completely ignored.

Occasionally, Ding Hui would call Fang Yu over to push, help hold someone down or something.

Initially, Fang Yu didn’t understand why people needed holding down, then saw Ding Hui raise the knife and directly cut off part of Song Xi’s blood and flesh!

The splattering blood and viscous oil, on the spot, stained the bed all over, making the whole room look like a murder scene or a garbage dump, dirty and disgusting.

"Stay calm, don’t move..."

Fang Yu thought Ding Hui was talking to Song Xi.

Then he realized, at some point, Ding Hui had several insect eggs in her hand.

"You..."

Fang Yu hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping.

Ding Hui blinked.

"See those insect eggs on the floor, detached from blood and flesh, dead immediately. Cutting them off together with skin and flesh, the eggs think they’re still in the previous environment, hence don’t trigger emergency self-extinction. You see the other insect eggs on her body, aren’t directly burrowing into her like before, indicating these eggs didn’t receive shared feedback from information elements. So the key lies in the environment..."
