Desert 9

The Desert 9 Hyudra is a sentient water source that preys on humans in motion. Centuries ago, a devastating conflict transformed vast regions into barren wastelands, forcing survivors to seek out these elusive creatures for survival. Scattered across the landscape are eight known deserts, each holding its own dangers. The tale follows Mao, a determined young man venturing into the mythical ninth desert—a place shrouded in mystery—on a quest to locate his missing father. Legends whisper of this uncharted territory, where reality bends and the rules of nature twist unpredictably. Few dare to explore its shifting sands, fearing the unknown terrors lurking beneath the surface. Yet Mao presses forward, driven by hope and the faintest clues left behind. The journey tests his courage as he faces both the unforgiving environment and the Hyudra’s cunning traps. With each step, he uncovers fragments of truth about the ancient war that reshaped civilization. Time becomes fluid in this phantom wasteland, where past and present blur together under the scorching sun. Survival demands more than strength—it requires unraveling the desert’s secrets before they consume him entirely.
