Chapter 463: Chapter 463 Wasteland (25)_1
If the corpse’s behavior was explained as coincidence one more time, it would be too unreasonable!
So almost the moment when Fu Qian caught the bullet with his bare hands, he confirmed his own conjecture.
Although the three Demigods hadn’t noticed, there must be something lurking nearby that really did not want either of the two before him to die.
To lock onto the target, there came the second strike against Kelson.
The corpse’s second lifesaving action finally made Fu Qian realize that the anomaly was at the entrance.
However, the way the other party hid was truly unexpected.
In hot pursuit, Fu Qian was also observing his target.
The semi-transparent figure before him was very blurry and emitted a milky white glow, looking like a spirit that had shed its flesh at first glance.
Just now it seemed to have spread itself into a sheet with no thickness and adhered to the door.
This was the first time Fu Qian had encountered such a form of existence.
And judging by the methods it displayed, it obviously could establish a special connection with that corpse.
Could this be a ghost that escaped from the mummified corpse?
Fu Qian quickly denied this speculation.
Even if it was a ghost, he couldn’t think of any reason for it to save people.
Moreover, when Colson and Sybil were fighting outside earlier, this door hadn’t even been opened yet.
It wasn’t likely that this thing was out to universally save all beings to such an extent, was it?
Additionally, when he opened the door earlier, he hadn’t noticed anything unusual about it.
This thing most likely followed him from outside.
And from its actions, it clearly did not want to expose itself.
Too bad you don’t get to choose!
Fu Qian sneered in his mind, sped up his steps, and quickly closed the distance.
At this moment, the milky white spectral figure had already leapt onto a crossbeam ahead of him, and Fu Qian followed suit with a leap.
Simultaneously, his right arm swelled to double its size as he reached for the latter’s neck.
However, although it didn’t look back, it was as if the spirit had eyes in the back of its head, narrowly dodging the unexpected strike with a flicker of movement.
Unfortunately for it, before it could widen the gap again, a spiked whip tore through the air and landed solidly on its back.
The spectral figure trembled, its surface rippling like water, as if screaming silently.
Bang bang!
Fu Qian didn’t stop, seizing the opportunity while his opponent was immobilized to fire two more shots.
One could almost imagine that if it hadn’t been hit by the whip, the specially crafted and tuned bullets, even ones from the hands of a craftsman, might not have been effective against its special state.
But at that moment, amidst the whooshing sound, two holes were blown directly into its head.
But like agar pierced through, even such devastating damage seemed not to be fatal.
The streaming milky color was quickly sealing the wounds at a visible rate.
And this obviously reluctant combatant, after being stiffened, didn’t look back and continued to flee.
Counting on fast healing to tough it out? Are you being a bit too disrespectful?
Fu Qian swiftly defined the opponent’s actions as provocative and didn’t hesitate to follow up with an unleashed flurry of claw and whip strikes.
Before the blows landed, however, the fleeing spirit suddenly stopped.
The next moment, it stretched its arms to the sides and floated slightly.
A dazzling explosion of light blasted outward from the center of the spirit.
In the burst of radiance, Fu Qian felt a powerful force coming at him, and he was shoved back.
The force was so great that in an instant, he found himself nearly ten meters away from the crossbeam.
Below him now was that foul-smelling cesspool.
Show the enemy weakness, then take the opportunity to set a trap and lure them in.
Not a bad tactic!
Fu Qian, already in the midst of falling, gave this figure a thumbs-up.
However, there’s something you don’t understand—in the face of a real Hunter, fleeing is futile.
The next moment, numerous black and red tentacles exploded from Fu Qian’s right arm, instantly bridging a distance of more than ten meters, and wrapped around a massive beam.
With the contraction and pull, Fu Qian’s descending body instantly changed direction and returned whence it came.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and the tentacles even caught the direction of the spirit entity’s escape, placing Fu Qian directly in its inevitable path.
The spirit entity, which was just about to withdraw and leave, froze on the spot.
Clearly, the speed of Fu Qian’s return exceeded its expectations.
But to its credit, it didn’t try to turn around and flee again; instead, it kept looking Fu Qian up and down.
Good, you’ve learned to face it bravely so quickly!
Fu Qian nodded slightly in appreciation.
Of course, in front of a real Hunter, prey who choose to bravely confront it usually die a bit faster.
“Declare your name, wicked creature.”
In such a scene, Fu Qian roared, his expression full of arrogance.
Regrettably, the other party did not answer, only staring at his right hand, which had now returned to normal.
Obviously, the scene just now had left a deep impression on it.
“Additionally, I’m curious, what are you trying to do here?”
As Fu Qian spoke, he observed the other party’s reaction.
However, just then, he sensed something and looked up towards the end of the passage.
A blinding flash of lightning, accompanied by a tide-like roar, erupted in that hidden room.
This one is truly frightened!
Fu Qian clicked his tongue in amazement, knowing without looking that the only person capable of creating such a commotion inside was Kelson.
And right on time, the effects of Eternity Clarity Mind on him should have already dissipated by now.
Power lost and regained, plus the fear accumulated under special circumstances.
This one subconsciously showing off a bit of muscle is only human nature.
However, as the dazzling lightning grew more intense and spread outward, Fu Qian noticed something strange; the light seemed to be dimming instead of brightening.
He soon confirmed that it wasn’t an illusion.
The milky white spiritual entity in front of him had silently expanded several times and even its color had turned murky.
In no time, its back distorted and two pristine white wings stretched out.
With a shake, shimmering white feathers fell like snowflakes from above.
Angel?
Fu Qian frowned at the gigantic creature before him.
At this moment, it bore no trace of a spiritual entity.
Aside from the wings on its back, its body was rotten to the core, looking even more twisted than the dry corpse from before.
Click!
Fu Qian raised the gun in his hand and aimed at the massive head.
Heh!
The creature did not dodge, and even let out a hoarse sneer of mockery.
“Just to remind you, you’re out of bullets.”
Keeping count of the shots and even knowing my preference for loading five bullets?
Amid his clicking tongue in amazement, Fu Qian pulled the trigger without hesitation.
The hammer struck nothing, yet an invisible force shot out from his fingertip, blasting the other’s head to pieces.
“Who says?”
