Otherworldly Desert Dust

Chapter 36 - 33: Wu Hen Eliminates the Three Threats

The pharmaceutical warehouse was located at the foot of the mountain, in a shaded area.

Wu Hen specifically instructed the female Order Maintainer to guard the drug warehouse; there were already two squads on armed alert there.

However, the entire campus was still in chaos, especially after learning that there were parasitic monsters among the students, making it even more challenging for the Order Maintenance Personnel to manage.

Wu Hen headed towards the gymnasium.

The most urgent task was to find those Insect Eyes Half-men lurking on the campus.

At this point, it was necessary to find a person.

"Yang Qin!"

After entering the gymnasium, Wu Hen quickly spotted Yang Qin’s figure.

Seeing Wu Hen appear, Yang Qin’s tears almost fell out of excitement.

Just moments ago, a white Insect Eyes Half-man attacked the Order Maintenance Personnel near the gym, causing heavy casualties. They had no idea how many bullets it took to finally kill that Insect Eyes Half-man.

"I know you really want to cry, but hold back for now. Have you collected the list?" Wu Hen asked.

"Hmm, hmm, there are three people who woke up earlier than me..."

"Only three?" Wu Hen’s tone showed a hint of disappointment.

Just three bowls of rice wouldn’t satisfy Little Yi’s hungry soul!

"It’s Director Tang, responsible for the cafeteria, Zhou Linghong, a student working part-time at the food counter, and Aunt Miao, who cleans... they’re all in the cafeteria now," Yang Qin said.

"Is that so?" Wu Hen raised an eyebrow.

They’re all in the cafeteria, does this mean these Insect Eyes Half-men might have another method to allow those larvae to take over their hosts more quickly?

Moreover, why specifically target the cafeteria workers? Could it be that they plan to poison the food??

The thought of this vast campus and the possibility of food contamination made it clear that thousands of people would struggle to survive in such harsh weather conditions. Indeed, the purpose of these Insect Eyes parasites invading the human homeland was solely to annihilate humanity!

"You guys head to the drug warehouse and keep an eye on things. Notify me immediately if anything is wrong. I’m going to deal with the three pests in the cafeteria," Wu Hen said.

Yu Yu, hearing that she’d be separated from her brother, immediately shook her head and insisted on staying with him.

Wu Hen noticed that Yu Yu was also equipped with the pink Compound Bow and remembered her precise and graceful through-skull arrow. He nodded.

"Alright, you Galuo and I Brom, a two-on-three fight is possible!"

"So, let’s split into pairs. Yang Qin, Wang Rui, you go guard the drug warehouse. Let us know if anything seems off immediately," Wu Hen said.

Yang Qin looked reluctant. She wanted to follow the big brother too.

But Yu Yu was the rightful one, and she had no reason to be emotional.

...

Splitting up, Wu Hen quickly arrived at the cafeteria.

Most of the people gathered here were teachers and campus staff. In such a disastrous and harsh environment, the cafeteria had become crucial and had to be kept operationally secure.

However, at this moment, the cafeteria was eerily quiet. Wu Hen was sure there were people inside, but he couldn’t hear any specific sounds.

"On the second floor," Yu Yu indicated with a gesture.

Insect Eyes Half-men lacked bones, and the white larvae, both pierced through the back of the head, were devoured by the phantom beside Wu Hen’s right hand!

...

These three white Insect Eyes Half-men didn’t pose much of a threat to Wu Hen.

After a perfect coordination with the archer, the siblings easily wiped out the Parasitic Aunt and the Parasitic Part-time Student.

The greedy dragon on Wu Hen’s right hand wasn’t satisfied, licking its lips after every bite of the large chunks of meat.

"Slurp~"

Delicious!

The three bowls in Little Yi’s belly left it very content.

It even had a bold idea — allow the entire city to be parasitized by the Insect Eyes, then wipe them out in one blow for a high-protein feast, solving the threat once and for all!

Its perspective was limited; in fact, waiting until all humanity was parasitized...

As Wu Hen coexisted with Little Yi, sensing its outrageous thought, he sternly reprimanded it!

If all of humanity were parasitized before acting, he and his family’s graves would grow two meters of grass.

It was like asking the immune system: why do I have a fever?

The immune system: you have a virus in your body, and high temperatures can kill it.

Me: but I can die from the fever too.

The immune system: I admit there’s a gamble, but today, one of you must die!

...

"Hm, my strength has visibly improved. Now, if I encounter the alluring one, I should be able to put up a fight," Wu Hen was very pleased with his current state.

The alluring one could turn invisible, use Instant Shadow, and had acute hearing — definitely stronger than Midnight Mass and the white Insect Eyes Half-men.

As for the handsome one capable of creating the Head-cutting Evil Spirit, they were likely on par with the Insect Eyes Mother Tree.

Honestly, without the adoptive father’s arrival, there was no way he could have killed her.

Step by step, he had a lot of room for growth. Someday, he wouldn’t need to call upon the Holy Father and could stand shoulder to shoulder with Zai Wu ...

"Brother, since my senses awakened, my archery skills have improved too," Yu Yu quickly approached and waited for praise.

"I had them pinned down; you couldn’t miss a stationary target. Those arrows that skimmed my scalp certainly had some personal vendetta!" Wu Hen didn’t give Yu Yu a chance to be proud, pinching her nose.

Yu Yu was upset...

"Are you sure you won’t have a hangover this time from shooting people?" Wu Hen asked, surprised.

His sister’s psychological resilience was so strong; she didn’t even gag after shooting through the heads. Could it be that some strange gene was activated within her???

"I can smell that they’re completely infested with insects ... they’re no longer human," Yu Yu explained.

Knowing their shells were full of rotten insects, Yu Yu had no psychological burden, even feeling like a Bodhisattva delivering them.

Suddenly, Yu Yu’s nose twitched, a pungent odor wafting from a door deeper in the kitchen, compelling her to pinch her nose.

"Brother, it smells terrible in there," Yu Yu pointed towards the food storeroom deeper within the kitchen.
