Eye of the Wasteland

Chapter 7
What woke Wu Yunhao up was heart-piercing pain from all over his body.

As a wanderer who has lived in the wasteland for many years, he instinctively opened his eyes and quickly turned over from the ground.

Just when he raised his arm, he was so stimulated by the severe pain that he couldn't help but groaned feebly.

Because of the severe pain in his right eye and half of his face, Wu Yunhao could only forcefully open his left eye, and gasped for breath, trying to see everything in front of him clearly.

At this moment, Wu Yunhao was leaning against a slope, and in front of him stood two homeless soldiers.

Not far behind the two homeless soldiers, the remaining homeless soldiers and other homeless people are gathering next to the broken modified truck, seemingly searching for everything available.

Seeing Wu Yunhao slowly opened his eyes, the two homeless soldiers were taken aback for a moment, and then one of them smiled and said, "Yo, you're not dead yet."

Another homeless soldier patted Wu Yunhao on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Wu Yunhao, but you probably won't survive this time."

"You have suffered such a serious injury, and the wound has been exposed to the blood of many mutants. Even if you are sent for treatment, you will inevitably be infected or suffer from radiation sickness in the end."

"Although you have saved many people, you will die sooner or later. As a wanderer in the wasteland, you should die sooner and be freed sooner."

"Since Jing Dongcheng and He Xingcheng are looking for you, why don't you lend your head to our brothers in exchange for a ticket to enter Jingdong City."

Seeing the cruel smiles on the faces of the two homeless soldiers, Wu Yunhao trembled slightly.

Even though he really wanted to kill the two vengeful guys in front of him, or quickly overturn them and flee here quickly, but the serious injuries made him look at the sneer on the faces of the two homeless soldiers in despair.

Could it be... Am I really going to die here?
Just as the two homeless soldiers stretched out their hands and briefly searched what Wu Yunhao had left, and were about to take out a sharp dagger to finish Wu Yunhao, a voice sounded from behind them.

"Two, at least he also killed a car of mutants before saving our car."

"Not only are you not saving people now, but you still want to repay your kindness like this, isn't it good?"

Just as the two homeless soldiers stood up sullenly after hearing the words, two gunshots followed.

The next moment, the two homeless soldiers looked at the place where they were shot in horror, and then collapsed powerlessly to the ground.

The woman with the pistol and several homeless companions with guns stepped forward quickly, and then began to check the two homeless soldiers who fell to the ground.

In order to confirm that the other party had been killed, the woman even pulled out her dagger and hit the two homeless soldiers' vital points twice.

After shaking off the blood on the dagger, the woman put away her dagger and turned her head to look at Wu Yunhao who was sitting there.

Picking up the crossbody bag snatched from Wu Yunhao by two homeless soldiers from the ground, the woman opened the crossbody bag, glanced at the coins inside, and then showed a smug smile.

Raising her hand to signal her teammates to pick up the guns and equipment from the corpses of the two homeless soldiers, the woman began to examine Wu Yunhao's body.

"Well, the bones are not broken, and the bones of the body are quite strong... But your injury is not serious."

"A piece of flesh fell off the arm, and the wound was stained with a lot of mutant blood."

"Follow that car and roll off the road, and you might have a concussion or internal damage."

"Brother, I'm sorry, but we can only help you so far. As for your things...we will take it as a thank you gift."

Looking at the beautiful smiling face of the woman in front of him, Wu Yunhao forced a smile: "You guys...it's really good to find... this excuse for cheating."

Seeing that Wu Yunhao saw through her little trick, the woman smiled and said, "However, at least I saved you indirectly."

As she said that, the woman took out her own dagger and stuffed it into Wu Yunhao's hand: "This is to repay your kindness for saving a carload of people earlier."

Looking at the dagger in his hand with a trace of blood on the blade, Wu Yunhao knew what the woman meant.

After all, he has neither relatives, friends, nor accompanying companions among these people. With his injuries, he is destined to be abandoned.

I'm afraid that after these people pack up everything and leave, the bloody smell on Wu Yunhao's body will soon attract the nearby mutant wolves or other alienated beasts.

Rather than being treated as a fresh meal by alienated beasts, it is better to end with dignity before that.

Speaking of this, the woman stood up and signaled her companions who had collected the guns and equipment to throw the stripped bodies of two homeless soldiers into a ditch beside them.

Next, those homeless people quickly boarded the dilapidated transport truck under the gathering of the woman and his companions.

Even before boarding the car, many homeless people glanced at Wu Yunhao who was slumped beside the slope, but none of them made any other moves.

Under Wu Yunhao's gaze, the dilapidated transport truck carrying the homeless people gradually disappeared from his sight.

After the surroundings were completely restored to silence, the overwhelming pain spread from the wound to all parts of the body.

Especially in his injured right eye and half of his face, Wu Yunhao continued to experience severe pain that Wu Yunhao couldn't bear.

He just bit his lips tightly, even though he could feel the bloody smell in his mouth, Wu Yunhao still only let out a slightly heavy panting sound without any wailing.

Whether it's the smell of blood on his body, the corpses of the two stripped homeless soldiers, or the mutant corpses in the modified truck, they may all attract nearby alienated beasts.

If he couldn't help but howl, the sound would attract the alienated beast more easily than the smell of blood.

After sitting still for a while, Wu Yunhao endured the severe pain all over his body and raised his other hand, then slowly cut the broken T-shirt on his body with the dagger in his hand.

Even if he needed to rest for a while after cutting off a piece of tattered clothes on his body, and at the same time needed the intensified pain in the wounds of his right eye and arm due to traction, Wu Yunhao still gritted his teeth and persisted.

With trembling hands and teeth, he barely bandaged the wound on his arm with a piece of cloth, and then Wu Yunhao lay on his head on the dirt slope, panting violently.

Beads of sweat mixed with blood flowed into the bloody right eye, causing him to tremble again from the pain again.

But then he still gritted his teeth, and adjusted himself from the posture of sitting on the ground to the posture of kneeling on the ground.

Amidst a burst of painful but stubborn muffled groans, Wu Yunhao reluctantly stood up at an extremely slow speed.

I don't want to die yet.

I still want to live on!
