Otherworldly Desert Dust-Chapter 504 - 459: The Handsome Relative
"Is there really still a chance to save him?" Lu Xian looked at the sniper with blood-red eyes, harboring a sliver of hope in her heart.
At this moment, Lu Xian realized that the man before her was not as simple as she had initially thought.
Their entire elite squad had entered this wasteland city, and within a few days, they were completely wiped out. However, this man, alone, remained unscathed and even dealt with the numerous Corpse People with ease.
"Let's try," Wu Hen, not being a cold-blooded creature, would help within his abilities since the other party showed goodwill towards him.
"But he... Be careful!" Lu Xian suddenly screamed, seeing on the opposite landmark building, a sniper rifle transforming into a roaring Dragon Head, spewing terrifying fiery molten lava towards them!
The large-caliber molten lava bullets blazed a magnificent fireline above the wasteland city, whistling past from where Wu Hen was situated at great speed and enormous power, capable of shattering a solid mountain.
Yet, Wu Hen was unfazed; he heard the trigger being pulled, and by the time Lu Xian screamed behind him, the bullet was already brushing past his face.
He dodged to the side, avoiding the roaring bullet. The molten lava bullet grazed over the rooftop, instantly shattering a large section of it, and then as it flew towards the buildings behind Wu Hen, that cluster of dilapidated commercial buildings collapsed thunderously.
Billowing dust rolled up, a single sniper bullet creating a scene akin to a demolition site, leveling the buildings behind to the ground.
"Phew!"
Wu Hen fired his hook lock gun, this time not aiming at the landmark building, but shooting directly at the sniper.
The hook lock gun pierced into the sniper's chest, but as Wu Hen attempted to drag the man towards him, the sniper's figure once again weathered away like a sand shadow, drifting towards a higher spot on the landmark building.
"Look up there!" Lu Xian pointed shakily at the very top of the landmark building.
It was the big Loss Demon, now perched casually on the edge of the landmark building, its human-like long legs dangling in the air, gently swinging.
The Big Loss Demon's stature was also petite, at first glance, not much different from a human female, but that was just part of its body. On the back of this Female Loss Demon grew grotesquely exaggerated meat wings, made of tendrils of flesh that could either cluster into a large tumor-like butterfly wings or transform into numerous anemone-style suckers, granting her extreme agility to soar and climb around this radiation-ravaged city!
Seeing this Meat-winged Demoness, Wu Hen's face unconsciously showed a hint of astonishment.
Having wandered in the Otherworldly Walk for so long, aside from the grotesque, deformed wings on this Female Loss Demon's back, her body actually possessed a delicate beauty, and her temperament was quite similar to that of the Symbiotic Evil Woman he had encountered in Jueyin Town.
The Symbiotic Evil Woman also took some living people and transformed them into her knights.
Clearly, the sniper had been transformed by this Female Loss Demon, now altering into a freakish alien species.
"Giggle~~~~~~~" The Female Loss Demon let out a silvery laughter.
Her twisted affection made Wu Hen even more convinced that this Loss Demon was a relative of the Symbiotic Evil Woman he had met before.
Wu Hen had not expected that after traversing the Otherworldly for so long, he would finally encounter the boss from Newbie Village that once had him trembling, and it was finally time to test the knowledge he had acquired over the years.
"It was her, we originally thought she was a down-and-out woman, and the team members kindly wanted to shelter her. Unexpectantly, while we rested, she secretly devoured our team members, not even leaving bone scraps behind. Fortunately, Captain Guo noticed in time and shot her directly. Her blasted head actually grew back, and that was when we realized the team members, who had been disappearing one after another, were being eaten by her..." Lu Xian's voice trembled, but she bravely recounted the ordeal.
The Loss Demon had evolved to disguise itself as a human, which was information not yet known by the Gold Seekers walking through the wasteland.
Having lost their advantage, it was difficult for them to defeat this Female Loss Demon again, including their most powerful Captain Guo, who ultimately became a plaything for this Female Loss Demon.
The Female Loss Demon didn't kill them outright but tortured them one by one. She developed a mindset to play a killing game with her prey, no longer satisfied with immediately slaughtering any human she met. Rather, she became a heavy-hearted Evil Ghost who extracted every ounce of fear from humans' hearts before finally killing them with satisfaction after they completely collapsed.
"I've encountered it before; it seems it's merely called differently." Wu Hen commented.
"Do you have a way to deal with her? She's really really strong," Lu Xian asked worriedly.
Wu Hen remained silent, standing quietly listening to the piercing laughter coming from above.
It was evident that the Meat-winged Demoness had developed a strong interest in Wu Hen. She licked her bright red lips, her eyes starting to glaze over, tormenting, transforming, subjugating, and finally torturing to death—it was clear that not only had this Female Loss Demon evolved to a very high level in strength, but her methods of killing had also advanced far beyond a primitive state.
The Female Loss Demon extended a hand, pointing at Wu Hen.
A long tendril, like her tail, flexibly wrapped to her front. The Female Loss Demon extended her long tongue, elegantly licking her own flesh tail, as if she was grooming every single tendril to make herself appear as a pristine Flower Fairy in the jungle.
Wu Hen also smiled, showing a playful expression.
A fair relative, huh?
Then don't blame me for not playing by the rules!
Wu Hen stepped back, then took a deep breath.
He threw a clean and decisive punch!
The punch carried a heavy force like a mountain shadow, with an exaggerated momentum towards the top of the landmark building. Suddenly, the upper half of the landmark building turned into powder, and the powerful Female Loss Demon perched at the top widened her pupils, her body frozen...
"Boom!"
```
The human body shattered instantly, and the meat wings on its back turned into countless chunks of flesh in a blink.
Above the wasteland, a reverse current suddenly rose, sweeping the city's rotten air and sand dust along with Wu Hen's punch traces into the gray sky!
The corpse people throughout the city heard the disturbance, their lifeless eyes fixated on the highest point of the wasteland, petrified.
The Gold Seekers hiding in the wasteland also looked through windows one by one, their hearts profoundly shocked, watching the sky burst open with a fist-sized hole...
What's that noise??
Could it be that a nuclear bomb, buried and unexploded from the past, had detonated within the wasteland???
Why did it explode now, and exactly at the highest point too!
...
Only a lonely half remains of the landmark building, no longer the most protruding structure.
The city's skies swirled with spatial turbulence, like a high-altitude storm that wouldn't clear for ages.
A massive number of Radiation Bats just left their nest to forage collectively, only to all turn into black raindrops that fell from the sky, splattering the already ruined city with large patches of blood.
The Bat Empress, originally curious and observing the battle between humans and the female Loss Demon, thought the losers would become her rotten meat dinner. Yet, having felt that terrifying punch up close, she turned into a scared quail, daring not to glance in Wu Hen's direction any longer.
On the high rooftop, Wu Hen slowly withdrew his fist.
Beside him, the redhead Lu Xian was utterly soulless!
She had been recently engulfed in the pain and fear of her teammates being brutally slaughtered by the powerful female Loss Demon. Now, her soul too seemed dominated by Wu Hen, her mind a vast blank, her heart nearly fleeing out of fear.
Is there something wrong with my nerves, witnessing such an absurd sight?

"You are sick!! Using a cannon to swat a mosquito???" Suddenly, the filthy little dog spoke human language, jumping onto Wu Hen's head and fiercely tugging at his hair!
Wu Hen shook his arm off.
His face wore a radiant smile, grinning from ear to ear!
"Can't help it, my DNA changed. The first time I entered the Otherworldly, this thing gave me a tremendous psychological shadow. Now that I've evolved to this level, if I don't give her a little shock, I'd be betraying the trembling past me in Otherworldly Juezhen!" Wu Hen said.
"No, are we still investigating?? Then why am I still disguised as an apocalyptic mutt?" Bai Ze burst out angrily.
"Relax, seeing this female Loss Demon, I've understood the Law here, no need to keep relying on the rubbish equipment we found and fight a spirited three hundred rounds with her," Wu Hen explained.
"Are you sure??" Bai Ze seriously doubted that Wu Hen was just here for the thrill.
All that talk about blending into the Desert Dust, starting from a lower dimension, avoiding detection by Cangling, was all nonsense.
He was just waiting for this moment, finally able to release the suppressed emotions from his initial days in the Otherworldly.
All fear comes from insufficient firepower.
The firepower Wu Hen unleashed now was tremendous, enough that if this punch had landed directly on the wasteland, it could turn all the corpses there to ash...
"Of course, there's also a tiny bit of selfishness," Wu Hen said, and suddenly reached out through the air towards the front.
The sniper transformed into a Sang Demon attempted to escape into a Sand Shadow, but was immediately bound by an invisible force, then forcefully dragged in front of Wu Hen.
Wu Hen displayed overwhelming power, rendering the half-transformed sniper helpless.
Soon, Wu Hen saw a partially exposed red Navel Bud at the sniper's spine; with the female Loss Demon dead, the other end of the red Navel Bud had also severed.
Wu Hen pulled out the Symbiotic Navel Bud, like extracting a Loss Demon parasite from the sniper's body. Promptly, the disease patches on the sniper began to fade, his eyes, skin, and nerves rapidly returning to the state of a living person.
"Captain Guo!" Lu Xian, seeing this scene, finally snapped back to reality, calling out excitedly.
The sniper lay on the ground, struggling with his arms to prop up his body, using all his strength to raise his head, his eyes no longer filled with shock and disbelief, but rather a reverence and confusion, as if seeing a True God descend to earth.
"Thank... thank you..." the now-normal Guo Hong said.
"Encountering you was fate, you deserve it," Wu Hen smiled, likewise showing goodwill.
Though they are on different levels of life, goodwill is equal.
His effortless help then,
Now, too, was an effortless gesture from Wu Hen.
