"This is —"
The Golden Tooth's lips trembled when he heard the sound that sounded like a swarm of bees. He tilted his head and listened for a while. Muddy liquid flowed out of his broken red eye like hot tears. "They're reinforcements. They're our people. Quick, help me up. Brat, help me up!"
Bai Xiaolu was so excited that he couldn't speak. He didn't know if it was because he survived or because he and The Golden Tooth's "trust" had not been let down. He felt that he was so strong that he actually managed to help The Golden Tooth, who weighed several hundred kilograms, up.
"In my belt."
The Golden Tooth said weakly, "There's something in my left belt. Help me, cough cough. Help me pull it out."
Bai Xiaolu quickly found the well-hidden package. He took it out and shook it in the wind. It was a flag and a blood-stained Chinese flag.
Originally, Boss Golden Tooth couldn't even walk, and a gust of wind could easily knock him over. However, when the blood-soaked Chinese flag was in his hands, it was as if he had been bestowed with boundless strength. His shattered spine immediately straightened, and he pushed Bai Xiaolu away. In a few steps, he climbed onto the burning remains of a war chariot. He shook the Chinese flag to its limit and waved it around with all his might, making it flutter loudly in the wind.
"Hey!"
The Golden Tooth waved the Chinese flag hard and signaled to the sky. "We're here! We're here! We're here! We're! We're here! "
"Boss!"
Bai Xiaolu was so scared that his scalp went numb. "It's dangerous. Come down!"
Although the main forces of Poison Scorpion and Vulture were still three to five hundred meters away and had been attacked head-on by the rocket soldiers of the "Agreement", they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Bullets were flying everywhere, and swords were blind. Who knew if a stray bullet wouldn't blow up The Golden Tooth's head?
The Golden Tooth, however, turned a deaf ear to Bai Xiaolu's shouts.
It seemed that his eyes, ears, and heart were only filled with the rocket soldiers in the sky, the blood-stained Chinese flag in his hand, and the shining emblem of the "Agreement".
“MAGA！ MAGA！ MAGA！”
The American flag fluttered in the wind as the former Navy SEALs let out a battle cry that resounded through the skies.
"Boss, come down quickly, come down quickly!"
Bai Xiaolu was so anxious that he was about to go crazy. He rushed forward recklessly, trying to pull The Golden Tooth down from the wreckage of the war chariot. However, the other party's feet were deeply rooted into the scrap metal like tree roots. How could he pull him away?
The boy's actions finally attracted the attention of the overlord of the wasteland. The Golden Tooth turned around, and a gentleness that had never been seen before appeared on its ugly face.
"Trust me, it's fine now."
The Wasteland Overlord gently said to the boy, "We have to be saved —"
Before he could finish his sentence, The Golden Tooth's chest exploded with a bright red flower of blood. The Chinese flag in his hand loosened and was swept away by the flames, flying not far away. He reached out to grab it in a daze, as if he wanted to grab it back. In the end, he did not manage to do so and fell backward from the burning chariot wreckage.
"… Ah!"
Bai Xiaolu was stunned for three seconds, as if his brain cells could not keep up with the rhythm of his visual nerves and could not process such an abrupt scene. After three seconds, he rushed toward The Golden Tooth, only to find that the other party's chest and back had been blown through. Not to mention his heart and lungs, even his spine had been blown apart.
No one could survive with such serious injuries, not even the Wasteland Overlord who controlled the power of the "army".
"Boss!"
Bai Xiaolu shouted hysterically, "How are you doing, boss? You can't die. You must not die. The reinforcements are here. Did you hear that? Colonel Sterling, whom you have been looking forward to, has come to save you. You are going to give him the cutting-edge water purification technology. You can't die!"
The gold-toothed man's mouth was full of pink foam, which was immediately dispersed by the sticky black blood. His body that used to be as tall as a mountain was now so thin and weak, like a melting ice cube. He lay in Bai Xiaolu's arms and allowed the boy to hold his head and cry. After panting for a long time, he finally said, "Xiang, trust me. It's fine now. It's fine now. Help me. Help me hand the 'cutting-edge water purification technology' to Colonel Sterling. He'll take care of you. You can live well. Live well …"
"No, if you want to hand it over, hand it over yourself!"
Bai Xiaolu could not stop crying at all. "Didn't you say that we would all be fine? You can't die. You have to survive. You can't be a liar. You can't lie to me. You clearly said that we would all be fine!"
"That's why … Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough. That's why I said that you are very stupid."
The Golden Tooth smiled again, but his smile was extremely ugly and gentle. "Didn't I tell you not to trust anyone? You didn't listen to me. If I didn't lie to you, who would I lie to? Cough, cough."
"No, I won't let you die!"
Bai Xiaolu stuffed the hole in The Golden Tooth's chest with sticky gel and bandages, but she could not stop the blood and internal organs from spurting out. The boy's expression was like that of a demon, and his dark eyes were burning with the fury of hell. "No matter what price I have to pay, no matter how many things I have to give up, no matter how far I have to go, no matter what I have to become, and no matter how many lives I have to sacrifice, I will not let you die. Even if you die, I will resurrect you!"
"Enough, noisy brat. I've lived enough. I've lived … for too long. I'm too tired. Let me rest. You should forget about me and live your own life."
The Golden Tooth's voice grew weaker and weaker. His intact artificial eye gradually dimmed, but his hands were still groping for it. "Where is my flag? I can't see it."
"It's here."
Bai Xiaolu's tears and snot became a mess. She helped The Golden Tooth find the American flag and stuffed it into his hands. She sobbed and said, "Didn't you say that you hate your country? Didn't you say that you hate this American flag? Didn't you say that people who believe in 'country' and 'flag' are idiots? "
The Golden Tooth's hands froze, and his expression was somewhat awkward.
"Shut up, brat."
In the end, he did not argue. He just covered his chest with the burning, blood-stained, and riddled American flag and muttered, "I'm used to it. I'm used to it."
"Boss!"
Bai Xiaolu finally could not help but burst into tears. Her hot tears fell on The Golden Tooth's face and the flag.
"Don't cry."
The overlord of the wasteland reached out and wiped away the boy's tears. He paused for a moment and said softly, "My child, don't cry …"
The American flag no longer rose and fell. The big hand had already solidified. The last expression that The Golden Tooth Barrett left in this dark world was one of indescribable calmness and satisfaction. Every wrinkle on his ugly face flowed with gentle light.
"Boss! Boss! Boss! "
The boy hugged the heavy body of the overlord of the wasteland tightly with his thin body and vented his grief and anger without restraint.
"Wait, Xiaolu."
His brother's brain waves were also somewhat chaotic. His voice also became trembling and hoarse. "Something's wrong."
"What's wrong?"
Bai Xiaolu's eyes were bloodshot. Like a beast, she stared at the bandits of the Scorpion Gang and the Vulture Gang who were about to be slaughtered. "I'm going to kill them. I'm going to kill them all!"
"It's not them."
Her brother quickly said, "Didn't you notice The Golden Tooth's wound? It's a penetrating wound. The wound on his back is small, but the wound on his chest is large. It's obvious that the bullet was shot from his back. After tumbling inside his body, it exploded in his chest. This bullet was shot from the back!"
"The back?"
Bai Xiaolu was stunned.
"Yes, the back!"
Her brother continued, "The Golden Tooth fought bravely. He didn't even take a step back. Although his bulletproof vest and chest armor were destroyed, his back was intact. It's not something that could be destroyed by an ordinary bullet, unless it was an armor-piercing bullet. But we didn't hear any loud noises just now. It was as if a ghost bullet came from behind and knocked down The Golden Tooth silently!"
"This …"
Bai Xiaolu was shocked. She felt a chill run down her spine. When she looked back, there was not a single bandit behind them except for the ruins of the winery.
But at this moment, Bai Xiaolu keenly sensed a sign of extreme danger.
He tilted his head, and an object that looked like a bullet whizzed past his ear and cut off half of his earlobe.
"Ahhh!"
Bai Xiaolu screamed in pain. He stared at the ruins of the winery with his eyes wide open, but there was still no trace of the enemy.
However, a brick that flew from the left drew a strange arc in the air and hit his temple, knocking him to the ground.
Bai Xiaolu was already exhausted, and his brother was on the verge of dying after launching more than ten 'Mind Lightnings'. Now that he was heavily wounded, he felt that the world was spinning, and his vision was turning black. How could he stand up?
In a trance, he saw a ghostly figure slowly emerge from the ruins of the winery and walk toward them unhurriedly.
No. It was not walking but 'floating' to them. His feet were three feet from the ground, and he was drifting toward them.
Weird purple brilliance beamed out of his eyes, and his lips curled into a mocking smile. He opened his hands, and dozens of pebbles with sharp edges that looked like bullets were floating at the center of his palms. The pebbles were surrounded by tiny electric arcs, as if they could accelerate the pebbles with electromagnetic force and shoot out like armor-piercing bullets at any moment.
It was none other than the underground young man, Wanzanghai!
"It's you!"
Bai Xiaolu had been wary of Wanzanghai since the beginning and intentionally took away all his weapons and ammunition when he charged just now, thinking that Wanzanghai would not be able to play any tricks. He did not know that he had underestimated the guy. "You are a 'superhuman ability user', too!"
"That's right."
Wan Zanghai smiled. "You didn't expect this, did you? Xiaolu, I'm the same as all of you, a 'metahuman'. But in my opinion, even if you have a 'superpower', there's no need to be so noisy all the time, constantly overdrawing your life and releasing your 'superpower' completely. This kind of reckless behavior is just courting death. Keep a low profile. Only by keeping a low profile can one live a long life.
"It's you! It's you who killed The Golden 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 stupid question?"
Wanzanghai continued smiling. "He was a demon, and I was an underground citizen. He was a tough bandit in the desert, and I was a law-abiding student in the underground city. He was a lackey of the 'Pact', and I was a citizen of the 'Alliance'. He was the culprit who attacked the 'New Gold Mountain', and I was a victim of the destruction of my homeland. I hated him the most. Wasn't it perfectly justified for me to kill him?
