"Tunnel Bloodworms" is a mode of 'transport' specifically brought by the steward to oversee the count and the entire process of the Crimson Feast.
At the same time, such giant bloodworms can be used to clear obstacles on a large scale.
Inherently having a strong ability to regenerate, their colossal bodies can withstand massive amounts of damage.
It's hard to kill them, yet they died as soon as they were put on the battlefield.
The death of the transport will make the steward's return journey very troublesome, travelling by myself would take at least ten days if not half a month...moreover, it would take at least a decade to re-cultivate four such large worms.
This made the steward's complexion unsightly, and six sharp chewing mouthparts split from his mouth.
With a directional insect chirping sound, he transmitted his message to the count.
