What appeared before them was an insect the size of a baby. It looked just like a worm that could be found feeding through the insides of vegetables and fruits. It had a long, oval body that was segmented.
The worm was not the normal milky white or faded yellow color. Its body was covered with the pictures of various countries' currency. Patterns, numbers, and even human faces were printed on the body.
Where the segments were connected was filled with something looked like lines. The lines were sticky with black liquid. It appeared that these lines had connected this bug to the ball of metallic objects that covered it earlier.
