“This is—”

Hearing the voice that sounded like wild bees dancing, the lips of the leader of the Gold Teeth Brotherhood trembled. He tilted his head and listened for a while. Filthy liquid flowed out of the broken red eye, as if it were hot tears. “Reinforcements. Our men. Help me up, kid. Help me up!”

Bai Xiaolu was so excited that she was rendered speechless, too. She didn’t know whether it was because she had survived or because Boss Gold Tooth and her ‘belief’ had not been let down, but she felt that she had tremendous strength and managed to lift Boss Gold Tooth, who weighed hundreds of kilograms.

“In my belt.”

Boss Gold Tooth said feebly, “There’s something in the belt on the left. Help me—cough cough—draw it out.”

Very soon, Bai Xiaolu found the neatly-collected package. She took it out and opened it against the wind. It was a flag and a blood-stained flag.

Before, Boss Gold Tooth could barely walk, and a gust of wind was enough to knock him over. But now that the blood-stained land was in his hands, he seemed to be granted infinite strength. His broken spine suddenly straightened up. He pushed Bai Xiaolu away and crawled to the remains of a tank that was still burning furiously. He shook the land to the maximum and waved it crazily in the wind.

“Hey!”

Boss Gold Tooth waved Citi hard and gestured to the sky. “We are here! We are here! Here!”

“Boss!”

Bai Xiaolu was so scared that her head was dizzy. “Danger! Come down now!”

Although the main force of the Scorpion Gang and the Vulture Gang were still 300-500 meters away and had suffered a head-on strike from the “Contract” rocket aviators, turning them into lambs waiting to be butchered, who knew whether or not a stray bullet would suddenly blow the head of Boss Gold Tooth?

However, Boss Gold Tooth seemed to have turned a deaf ear to Bai Xiaolu’s shouts.

In his eyes, ears, and heart, there seemed to be nothing but the rocket fliers in the sky, the blood-stained flag in his hand, and the glittering battle emblem of the ‘contract’.

“Maga! Maga! Maga!”

Citi was expanding, and the former elites of the Navy Seals were roaring.

“Boss, get down! Get down now!”

Bai Xiaolu was so anxious that she was about to go crazy. She rushed close and tried to drag Boss Gold Tooth out of the wrecked tank, but his feet were deeply embedded into the scrap iron like the roots of a tree. How could she move him?

The boy’s action finally caught the attention of the dominator of the desert. The leader of the Gold Teeth Brotherhood turned around, with an unprecedented gentleness on his ugly face.

“Believe me, everything is fine now.”

The dominator of the desert said to the boy softly, “We are saved—”

Before he could finish his sentence, a bright flower of blood burst out of the chest of the leader of the Gold Teeth Brotherhood. He loosened his grip on Citi, who was blown away by the flames. Dazed, he tried to grab her back, but he failed and fell off the burning tank.

“…Ah!”

Bai Xiaolu was dazed for three seconds, as if her braincells could not keep up with the rhythm of the optic nerves and handle such an abrupt scene. It was not until three seconds later that she lunged at the leader of the Gold Teeth Clan and discovered that he had been blown through from his chest to his back. Not just his heart and lungs, even part of his spine had been blown up.

No one could survive such heavy wounds, not even the dominators of the desert who controlled the legions.

“Boss!”

Bai Xiaolu shouted hysterically, “How are you, Boss? You can’t die. You must not die. Reinforcements are here. Do you hear me? Colonel Sterling, whom you’ve been looking forward to, is coming to your rescue. You must not die!

Boss Gold Tooth’s mouth was full of pink foam, which was soon washed away by the thick black blood. His body, which used to be as tall and strong as a mountain, looked so thin and weak, like a block of melting ice. Lying in Bai Xiaolu’s arms, he let the boy hold his head and cry. He breathed hard for a long time before he stammered, “Believe me. It’s alright now. It’s alright now. Help me. Help me hand over the cutting-edge water-cleaning technology to Colonel Sterling. He will take care of you. You can live on. Live on…”

“No, you have to pay for it yourself!”

Bai Xiaolu could not stop her tears. “Didn’t you say that we would be fine? You can’t die. You must survive. You can’t be a liar. You can’t lie to me. You said that we would be fine!”

“That’s why I said, cough cough, cough cough cough cough. That’s why I said you were stupid.”

The gold-tooth leader laughed again, in an extremely ugly and gentle way. “Didn’t I tell you not to trust anybody? If you don’t listen to me, I will not lie to you. Cough cough. Who am I lying to?”

“No. I won’t let you die!”

Bai Xiaolu stuffed sticky gel and hemostatic bandages into the hole on the chest of the gold-toothed leader, but there was no way that she could stop the blood and internal organs from spurting out. The boy’s face was as crazy as a devil’s, and his dark eyes were burning with the fury of the deepest level of hell. “No matter what price you have to pay, no matter how many things you have to abandon, no matter how far you have to walk, no matter what you have to become, no matter how many lives you have to sacrifice, I will not let you die. Even if you die, I will revive you!”

“Enough, noisy brat. I’ve lived enough. I’ve lived… too long. I’m too tired. Let me rest. You should forget me and live your own life.”

The leader’s voice was getting weaker and weaker. The intact artificial eye gradually dimmed, too. But his hands were still groping. “Where is my flag? I can’t see it.”

“In this place.”

Bai Xiaolu’s tears and snot were all mixed up. She helped Boss Gold Tooth find the Citibank and stuffed it into his hands, while she sobbed, “Didn’t you say that you hate your motherland? Didn’t you say that you hate the Citibank? Didn’t you say that those who believe in ‘motherland’ and ‘flag’ are idiots?

The leader’s hands stiffened, and he was somewhat embarrassed.

“Shut up, brat.”

In the end, he did not defend himself. Instead, he covered his chest with the burnt, blood-stained, and riddled with holes and mumbled, “I’m used to it. I’m used to it.”

“Boss!”

Bai Xiaolu finally couldn’t help but burst into tears. Her tears fell on the face and flag of Boss Gold Tooth.

“Don’t cry.”

The dominator of the desert reached out and wiped the boy’s tears. He paused and said softly, “My child, don’t cry…”

Citi stopped moving. His big hands were frozen. The last expression that ‘Gold Tooth Boss’ left on the black world was serenity and satisfaction. Soft brilliance was flowing out of every wrinkle on his ugly face.

“Boss! Boss! Boss!”

The boy hugged the heavy body of the dominator of the desert with his thin body and vented his grief and anger without restraint.

“Wait, Xiaolu.”

His brother’s brainwaves were somewhat disordered, too. His voice was shaking and coarse. “Something is not right.”

“What’s wrong?”

Bai Xiaolu’s eyes were bloodshot. She stared at the bandits of the Scorpion Gang and the Vulture Gang who were about to be butchered like a wild animal. “I’m going to kill them. I’m going to kill them all!”

“Not them.”

The elder brother quickly said, “Didn’t you notice Boss Gold Tooth’s wound? It’s a through-and-through wound. The wound on the back is small, but the wound on the chest is large. It’s obvious that the bullet entered the chest from the back. After it rolled inside the body, it exploded from the chest—it was shot from the back!”

“The rear?”

Bai Xiaolu was dazed.

“That’s right. The rear!”

The elder brother continued, “Boss Gold Tooth fought valiantly and did not retreat even a single step. Although his body armor and the chest of his armor were damaged, his back was completely intact. It was simply not something that could be blown up by a single bullet, unless it was an armor-piercing bullet. However, we clearly didn’t hear too intense of a sound just now. It was as if a ghost bullet had assaulted us from behind and silently knocked Boss Gold Tooth down!”

“Well—”

Bai Xiaolu was greatly alarmed. She felt a chill run down her spine. When she turned around, there was not a single bandit behind them except for the ruins of the winery.

But at this moment, Bai Xiaolu sensed the danger keenly.

He tilted his head. An object that looked like a bullet whizzed past his ear and cut off half of his earlobe.

“Ah!”

Bai Xiaolu cried in pain and stared at the ruins of the winery, only to discover no traces of the enemy.

However, a broken brick from the left drew a weird curve and slapped his temple brutally, knocking him to the ground.

Bai Xiaolu was exhausted in the first place, and her brother was on the verge of death after more than ten rounds of ‘Mind Lightning’. He felt that the world was spinning and his head was dizzy. How could he stand up?

In a trance, they saw a ghost-like figure slowly emerge from the ruins of the winery and walk toward them unhurriedly.

No. He was not walking. He was floating close. His feet were three feet off the ground.

His eyes were emitting weird purple brightness, and his lips curled into a mocking smile. He opened his hands, where dozens of pebbles with sharp edges like bullets were floating. Tiny electric arcs were dancing around the pebbles, as if they could be accelerated by electromagnetic force at any time and shot out like armor-piercing bullets.

It was the underground teenager, Wan Zanghai!

“It’s you!”

Bai Xiaolu had been wary of Wan Zanghai since the beginning. She had taken away all the weapons and ammunition on purpose when she was charging, thinking that Wan Zanghai would not be able to play any tricks. She did not expect that she had still underestimated the guy. “You are also an ‘ability user’!”

“That’s right.”

Wan Canghai smiled and said, “You didn’t see this coming, did you, Student Lu? I’m the same as you, I’m also an ability user. However, in my opinion, even if I have a ‘super ability’, there’s no need for me to spend all day and night overdrafting my life and releasing my ‘super ability’ completely. This kind of foolhardy behavior is just seeking death. Only by keeping a low profile can I live long. What do you think?”

“It was you! You killed Boss Gold Tooth!”

Bai Xiaolu’s fingers turned into ghost claws and scratched the sand crazily. “Why? Why did you kill him?”

“Why—isn’t that a silly question?”

Wan Canghai continued smiling. “He is of the devil race, and I am of the underground race. He is a bandit of the Wasteland. I am a law-abiding student of the underground metropolis. He is a lackey of the ‘Contract’ and I am a citizen of the ‘Alliance’. He is the culprit of the assault on the ‘New Gold Mountain’. I am the victim of the destruction of my home. There is an irreconcilable hatred between us. Isn’t it perfectly justified and justified for me to kill him?

“How can you not understand such a simple logic? Have you really forgotten our home, ‘New Gold Mountain’, because of the Stockholm syndrome? Or… Hehe. Or are you not an underground demon at all? Are you an evil devil just like Boss Gold Tooth?”
