This is not a pre req for Really Big Worm. You can just kill the two you need for Messy Business, then get the rest later while doing other quests in the cave.

What to do
Description
Greetings little one. I know not what madness has brought you to the Crystal Vice, but you are welcome in my presence. These ice worms... these jormungar have taken a taste to eating my brothers. I doubt you will find my kind friendly by any terms during this time of battle, but if you are here to help with the worms, then you have my ear. If we are to take the cavern back, we must first clear the canyon of these jormungar feeders. Join us in battle, {race}!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Messy Business
Even at first glance, the sample you brought me shows obvious signs of some kind of corrosive spit. It would be a natural assumption that the same substance these worms use to burrow through the ground has allowed them a formidable weapon against the Ice Giants.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Apply This Twice A Day
This elixir should protect against their spit. Offer it to Ko'char for me, will you? Tell him there's plenty more where that came from if he'll return the favor.
