Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 610 - 294: Severed Arm, Decided Outcome, and Candor_2

The prospect of escape was impossible for him, as he was firmly locked on by the battleship heavy cannon from thousands of meters away on the Oasis battleship. Even if he had a countermeasure up his sleeve, there was no escape from the fatal path once the massive shells rained down.

Thus, Lord Bishop was not in a hurry.

In fact, temporarily sparing Li Hao would prevent himself from being counterattacked, conserve limited energy, reduce the overdraft of his Life Value, and turn the cornered Li Hao into a perfect lure to attract the Desert Wolf Race hidden in the distant mountains.

By luring the leader, Wolf Ao, into attacking prematurely, the original combat plan could be perfectly realized.

Therefore, Lord Bishop both manipulated the Holy Spring Water to restore the excessively damaged Undying Holy Armor and approached the severed left arm fallen nearby.

He lifted it with the tip of a spear, quietly gazing towards Li Hao in the distance while restoring his own aura and state, in preparation for a potentially fierce battle ahead.

The Thunder Slash earlier was deliberately aimed at the junction between the Rock Horse Armor’s surface armor plates. This was done to easily sever the entire arm without needing to smash all the external armor, reducing the wear on the Armor-Piercing Wolf Spear to reserve space for the upcoming battle.

Additionally, this ensured the entire left arm remained as intact as possible, without significant surface damage.

This way, when Leader Wolf Ao initiates an attack, Li Hao can use the Tier Two flesh and blood cellular activity to quickly reconnect and repair the left arm upon receiving it.

Thus rapidly regaining combat strength.

So the choice to sever Li Hao’s left arm was actually a deliberate move by Lord Bishop.

It amounted to a precise strike, akin to a surgical operation, completed within a fraction of a second.

Everything now followed accordingly; patience was all that was needed for the entry of the Desert Wolf Race or to gradually deplete Li Hao’s remaining Life Force.

On the other side, Li Hao, who retreated hundreds of meters, was hiding at the edge of the arena, about a hundred meters from the border.

Dragging his battered body, he hid behind a giant rock, peeking out with a small part of his head to observe, while utilizing the Rock-Horned Horse Source Material carried on the back of his armor and some nutrient repair agents to heal the severed area of the left arm.

The previous penetrative wound paled in comparison to this one.

The entire arm of the Rock Horse Armor was directly severed, along with Li Hao’s own left arm, a significant loss.

He could barely staunch the bleeding at the moment; full recovery to an intact state would require at least a month with the robust self-healing ability of a Tier Two Evolver, aided by advanced medical technology from the laboratory.

As for the lost arm of the Rock Horse Armor, it could quickly be rebuilt into a new armor with enough mid-stage Rock-Horned Horse corpse material.

That part of the repair was indeed faster than human regeneration.

Now, with the loss of the whole arm, Li Hao could barely stop the gushing of blood vessels at the wound, coagulating into a layer of scab, leveraging the recovery ability of a Tier Two Evolver. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Due to excessive blood loss, Li Hao’s face was pale as he forced himself to calm down.

At this moment, he had lost the possibility of fighting again.

Even if relying on his hidden cards could temporarily unleash his peak battle power, it was still impossible to defeat the opponent far away.

Surely the one entering the arena for the battle now wasn’t the previous Father Su An.

Noticing this, Li Hao recalled the moment he was ambushed just now.

Through the Rock Horse Armor and his own instincts, at the moment the opponent acted, both Li Hao and the armor felt the direct terror of death.

This meant the controller of the Undying Holy Armor, during the surprise attack just now, had the ability to directly pierce through the defense of the Rock Horse Armor and kill Li Hao on the spot.

The subsequently severed left arm also coincidentally confirmed this point.

If the opponent’s target wasn’t the left arm of the Rock Horse Armor but rather the chest or neck, Li Hao would have already become a headless Tier Two corpse, with no chance of survival.

But the controller of the Undying Holy Armor didn’t do this; instead, he merely severed the already injured left arm...

This left Li Hao pondering for a while.

Currently, the only certainty was that the participant of the last arena battle was definitely not the previous Father Su An.

In the second arena battle, Father Su An had already been pushed to the limit by Li Hao, and even with half an hour of rest and recovery, he was definitely not able to return to his peak state.

Furthermore, the power of the Thunder Slash just now, which was no less than a hundred tons of force, could hardly be achieved by a Tier Two Late-Stage Evolver.

Only a Tier Two Peak evolver, who had bridged the gap to the next level of Level 29, could unleash such terrifying strength.

Even a Level 25 Evolver, Father Su An, could not possess Tier Two Peak power even after absorbing Late Tier Two Holy Spring Water, at most comparable to an ordinary Tier Two Late Stage Evolver.

So the only person in Oasis Town fitting these characteristics was the actual controller of the Oasis Church, the high and mighty Lord Bishop.

Unless, unnoticed by Li Hao, the Diocese of Holy City sent a Level 29 strong person to assist the Oasis Church.

But as far as Li Hao knew, relations between Oasis and Holy City were not cordial, and the Diocese had repeatedly summoned back the Deputy Bishop of Oasis or attempted to send other members to replace Zhang Hui, yet all were refused by Oasis.
