Otherworldly Desert Dust-Chapter 503 - 458 Big Loss Demon
Wu Hen wiped the fruit pulp off his cheeks, then stepped on the rooftop railing, leaped up, and landed on the high-rise building opposite.
He initially wanted to use his Hearing to locate the sniper who had turned into a Sang Demon but found that the guy didn't make a sound while floating in the sandy wind. Instead, inside the building, Wu Hen heard the screams of other people.
"It's that stinky woman, the chance for revenge has come, let her be your obedient lackey!" Bai Ze got excited for some reason.
Following the balcony, Wu Hen jumped down through the cracks between the floor slabs, leaping down more than ten floors before he saw a red-haired woman lying on a ventilation pipe. Below her were all Worker Corpses, one of which was gnawing on her leg, nearly tearing the entire limb from her body.
Her ammunition was clearly depleted. Faced with such a terrifying scene, she could only pull out her handgun, intending to end her young life preemptively.
Wu Hen released freezing bullets, freezing all the Builder Corpses, and then precisely shot the red-haired woman's pistol of suicide.
The red-haired woman had a face full of panic, looking at Wu Hen descending from the sky, her eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Where are the others in your team, is anyone else still alive?" Wu Hen asked.
"No... there's no one left. We encountered a Mutant Sang Demon... it slaughtered all the others, even the captain..." The red-haired woman, Lu Xian, stuttered.
"Can you still walk?" Wu Hen continued to ask.
The red-haired woman, Lu Xian, nodded repeatedly, seemingly still hoping to survive.
An elite squad, having just entered this wasteland and already nearly annihilated, indicates that this place is indeed more dangerous than imagined.
The red-haired woman took out emergency bandages and disinfectant, cleaned her wounds briefly, then limped after Wu Hen.
"There are hundreds, if not thousands, of Corpse People in this building, and some elite Corpse People's defenses are astonishing; our weapons can hardly harm them," Lu Xian said.
"Let's go back the way I came," said Wu Hen.
Picking up the equipment left behind by Lu Xian's teammates, Wu Hen found that one of the deceased had a rope gun and many Enhancement Chips.
Since their squad was wiped out, naturally, Wu Hen took all these items.
After picking up medicines, water, food, and wearing the Pulse Gloves, and slinging an air gun designed Electric Pulse Device on his back, Wu Hen suddenly felt like he was almost divinely equipped, with ample ammunition and weapons!
Lu Xian, without time to grieve for her senior teammates, teary-eyed, searched for usable equipment among the corpses and strapped on Light Combat Armor.
The Light Combat Armor had energy support, which could save a lot of physical strength, and could also be activated in critical moments, bursting with greater power and speed.
"Pfft!!"
Wu Hen fired the rope gun, hooking a steel cable to another building shaped like a sword and then attached the red-haired woman to it, pushing her out.
The red-haired woman had undergone certain training, at least not screaming incessantly while flying through the air.
"Bang!!"
Suddenly, an air bullet whizzed past Lu Xian's ear, shattering the glass curtain wall in front of her.
Shattered glass, she slid right into the interior of Sword Building, which was also a high floor filled with sticky biological silk. These biological silks were a vivid blood-red, resembling a Demon Spider Nest.
Lu Xian's face turned pale, for she found that this was the maternity ward area of a maternity hospital. What chilled her to the bone was that in those beds and rooms, there were still figures of pregnant women, walking around in this nest of blood-red spider silk. When the light-blocking glass curtain wall was shattered, and sunlight illuminated the interior of the building, it was horrifying to discover that they were not pregnant women at all, but Corpse Demons with bloated bellies, each with a corpse baby at the abdomen!
The belly's corpse baby, seemingly the main entity of this "pregnant" body, let out wails and screams, causing the body to pounce towards Lu Xian.
Lu Xian thought she had escaped from the Corpse Nest only to enter another terrifying demon cave. She drew her weapon, limped, and moved unsteadily, shooting...
Just when her firepower was insufficient to eliminate these crazed mother-infant Corpse Demons, Wu Hen also slid in following the hook, then activated his Pulse Gloves, throwing a punch at this large group of Corpse Demons!
The pulse energy swept through, instantly knocking them away, with all of the mother-infant Corpse Demons cleared out tens of meters away, and then Wu Hen pulled the trigger of his Unlimited Magazine air gun, precisely hitting the abdomens of these Corpse Demons, achieving a one-hundred percent headshot.
"Help collect some Mutant Condensed Liquid," Wu Hen said indifferently.
Lu Xian's mind didn't have time to think; she could only follow Wu Hen's orders in shock.
"We... shouldn't we find a safe place first?" Having collected the Mutant Condensed Liquid, Lu Xian handed it to Wu Hen.
"Aren't you going to care about your teammates?" Wu Hen retorted.
"They're all dead!" Lu Xian replied, her emotions somewhat restrained, conveying her grief and her desperate desire to survive.
Having battled in the Alien Wasteland for many years, she had never encountered such a situation. She had never imagined that their well-equipped team would be so easily defeated by a real Sang Demon, not to mention capturing one alive. Even her own survival as the sole survivor was due to the help of her senior attracting a large number of Corpse People...
"Even if your team leader has been mind-controlled by the Sang Demon, it's not completely hopeless. Aren't you willing to fight for him? By following these high-rises, we should be able to find him. While his body cells haven't fully deteriorated, perhaps we can still save him," Wu Hen said.
"It's impossible... He has become a Sang Demon; he was turned by that Big Loss Demon, there's no saving him," Lu Xian said.
"I still have to pursue it, you are the only survivor who has confronted that Big Loss Demon, which is of some use to me. If you are willing to follow me then follow, if not, then find your own way to leave this wasteland. I am not obliged to escort you out," Wu Hen said.
"I... I..."
Wu Hen didn't give her time to think; he moved to another side of the Sword Building, then took out a hook lock gun and shot its steel cable hook toward another unfinished building far away.
Pulling down on the firearm, the hook lock gun immediately transformed into a very handy bracelet. Its muzzle would automatically secure the launched cable. Wu Hen only needed to hold onto this integrated hook lock gun to swing into another building.
Wu Hen didn't even look back, unwilling to waste another second here. He swung out directly.
Lu Xian got so scared that her face turned pale. The injury on her leg seemed to vanish as she jumped, stepping on the edge and flusteredly grabbing onto Wu Hen who had already swung away.
"Why are you hugging me if you don't have a rope gun?" Wu Hen said impatiently.

Turning his head, he then saw a gynecologist covered in tentacles rush out of the shadows from the floor they had just descended from. Its tentacles held various types of surgical knives and saws. If it caught them, who knew what terrifying transformations they would undergo.
"It's also a minor elite, alas, the Sang Demon is more important." Wu Hen's eyes actually sparkled; the creature's high-level liquid could be exchanged for Yuan You's use.
But with the Sang Demon ahead, Wu Hen also feared losing track of it.
Reaching the unfinished building, Wu Hen thought it would be unusually safe, but to his surprise, the floorboards were hanging full of Radiation Bats. Those Radiation Bats were so dense that they appeared like a thick layer of paint. The moment Wu Hen and Lu Xian landed, they were surrounded by the swarm.
Wu Hen didn't really have a good way to deal with these Radiation Bats. The Ice Gun could only clear a path.
Not daring to linger, Wu Hen hurriedly fired another hook lock gun, traversing a large part of the dilapidated neighborhood to reach an Observation Tower.
At the very top of the Observation Tower lay a Radiation Bat Emperor, which, incredibly, spread its wings wide like massive solar panels to absorb sunlight. Sunlight entered its body, making it glitter and shine like a high-power city beacon, illuminating the surrounding area...
Around the neighborhood, countless particles adhered to the inside and outside of the unfinished buildings. These were not anything else but bat eggs. As a mammal on Earth, Wu Hen didn't know why bats here mutated to be oviparous. As the Radiation Bat Emperor on the Observation Tower continued to scatter radiant warmth, these oviparous bats hatched one by one. Most were palm-sized, but a few Radiation Bats had grown human heads, about the size and weight of seven or eight-pound babies, and knew to immediately seek rotten flesh and bones or cluster around their royal mother upon hatching.
Lu Xian was terrified and realized that the species in this wasteland had mutated to a more terrifying level. These were not creatures that ordinary Gold Seekers like them could handle. Moreover, others wandering in the wasteland probably didn't dare to hunt carelessly, and instead trembled and hid in places with fewer mutated creatures, living cautiously like nocturnal sewer rats, carefully exploring this city ruled by mutants.
"Neither human nor beast..."
"What has caused them to become like this?"
Wu Hen sighed heavily.
Perhaps just a bacterium-laden spit from a high-dimensional life form spat on this land was enough to cause such a terrible mutation. They did not become this apocalyptic scene overnight but were caught off guard by those strange and bizarre Alien Species. Gradually sinking, slowly being overrun, slowly undergoing genetic twists...
"He... He's ahead..." Lu Xian uttered softly.
The Killing desire of Radiation Bats wasn't particularly strong. They only disallowed living beings from roaming on their territory. After leaving their biofactory area, they did not pursue.
Standing on high ground, Wu Hen finally saw the sniper draped in a layer of Blood Sand Clothes. He stood at a vantage point, his dark sniper muzzle targeting Wu Hen as if warning him that one step closer would blow him to pieces!
Yet Wu Hen faced the terrifying sniper elemental weapon head-on, looking for the powerful Sang Demon on the landmarks of the city where the other stood.
A Sang Demon capable of creating more Sang Demons was definitely among the elite. Its Mutant Condensed Liquid was surely valuable for research, and the energy it emitted might give Wu Hen the information he sought.
