Looks like your Windows 11 update is almost complete. Or it could be fleas, bed bugs, or lice. I'm not a bugologist.

bed bugs tend to bite like that where it's all grouped up together and I think sometimes in a line.

Idk, but one more and the circle closes, the ritual is complete.
So many bites next to each other could be a bed bug. My understanding is that they'll leave little black dots around the bites as well. Did you see any before? Otherwise, any of mosquitoes, or fleas.
Bed bugs are usually in a straight line (they follow your veins). Could this be something other than an insect bite?
I had what i suspected were bed bug bites and a few times they would bite in a cluster somewhat similar to this. I moved out of that apartment and haven't noticed any bites since but never actually confirmed i had bed bugs.
As I understand it you don’t move away from bed bugs. They come with you.

Real talk, check your shit for bed bugs. THEY WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE IF NOT DEALT WITH.
I am sorry but you have MIDI
Thank goodness, there are 2⁷ ways to cure that.
Bed bugs. The internet will tell you they only bite in a straight line, but that's horse shit. Look up bed bug bites and you'll see clusters like this, too.
What about one mosquito with six guns?
There was a fire fight!!!

whatever it was, it was going for the hexagon, which are the bestagones
Don't worry, they aren't bites. Just spider eggs.

Bed bugs for sure. Took 2 years to get rid of the bastards as they ate us alive.
This brought back Bedbug based paranoia I thought I had laid to rest nearly a decade ago so thanks for that.
I hope you have a speedy and painless solution to our problem, but I'm really glad I'm not you OP. My god, if I never see these bastards again it will be too soon.
fun fact if you have bats in your area, they also carry bat bugs, which are relative to bed bugs and they can also infest your house too. there is a theory that bed bugs evolved from bat bugs, also they look alike.
This is the opposite of a fun fact. I'm going to sneak into your house and steal your fingers for typing it

Mosquito
Bedbugs as someone else said. If this was at home clean the fuck out your house. Like, deep clean. Twice. Check the seams on your mattress and pillows. If you have a clothes dryer throw in everything that is safe to put in a dryer. Leave it in there for at least an hour. You can't imagine the psychological terror of having a potential infestation. You need to fight back hard.
I think windows 10 bit you, and the actual bite is loading
Bedbugs. If you can, get your house above 120° F and keep it there for at least two hours. If not, CONSTANT VIGILANCE, and constant deep cleaning of everything is the only way I have seen them beaten without poisons.

Are you sure this is bug bites and not a rash or infection, like ringworm for example?

My vote is bed bug. I’ve had a few encounters while traveling. It’s happened to me in a C shape before, once. Although not as tight of a C shape as yours.
spider. they bit multiple times.
Idk why this is getting down voted. Spiders usually bite in a line, not that weird it's a c shape. Impossible to tell without more info. But I'd bet spider.
when ur on the internet, nobody knows u r a spider
Downvoted because it's extremely unlikely. Spiders rarely bite in the first place and 5 times is bordering on absurd.
Spiders usually bite in a line
Utter nonsense. Where did you even get this?
Impossible to tell without more info. But I’d bet spider.
It is indeed impossible to tell, but betting on a spider is one of the worst bets you can make in this case.

Sorry. It was me.
I touched poision ivy once and it looked like this. If it doesn't go away like a normal mosquito bite, might need to get it checked out so you can get the prescription cream.
