Chapter 3554 - A New Addition (170)
Before the thought of running even came to him, Chu He narrowed her eyes in the bushes and pulled the trigger. Bang! A bullet whizzed past!
Boom!
The bullet hit the gas tank accurately. The gas tank, being exposed to oxygen, was already on the verge of exploding. Now aided by the sparks produced by the bullet, an intense explosion instantly occurred!
The entire car was immediately engulfed in flames!
The powerful airwaves swept everyone onto the ground like a tsunami. A row of soldiers who could not dodge in time were instantly swallowed by the flames!
The fire lit up half of the night sky, the intense explosion was deafening.
Chu He was also thrown to the ground by the shockwave. She prostrated on the ground until the shockwave subsided. Then, she got up and slowly walked out from among the shrubs. She glanced at the angry flames and turned around to walk towards the factory.
One of the men who was pushed to the side by the shockwave started to throw up blood continuously. Vision blurred, he struggled to support his body, raised his hand, and aimed his gun at her abdomen!
Pfft!
Chu He felt as if her abdomen was hit by something, followed by a burning pain and the appearance of a shocking wound. Clutching her bleeding abdomen, she stumbled and fell to one knee. Turning around, she saw the soldier's head fall heavily to the ground as he took his last breath.
She stood up with great difficulty. At first, she did not feel anything after being shot, but when she took a step forward, she could not stand on her feet anymore. She tottered and fell to the ground. Intense pain consumed her, causing her to break out in cold sweat!
Chu He tried her best to support her body as she tore her vest and applied pressure on her wound to stop the bleeding.
There was a dagger tied to the back of her waist. The bullet had accurately pierced through the surface of the dagger and embedded itself into her skin.
Fortunately, the bullet did not bury too deeply given the dagger had reduced some of the impact. However, there was excruciating pain where the dagger was pierced through and the iron sheet stuck to her wound.
Chu He crawled to the tree and knelt on the ground with great effort. Biting her collar, she tied the cloth tightly and pulled out the dagger. After disinfecting it with fire, she endured the pain and made a cross on the wound before extracting the bullet.
The pain from the fresh and gaping wound made her break out in cold sweat! She closed her eyes, disinfected the wound, then went in for the bullet. She made a cotton pad with material from her pant legs to stop the bleeding and roughly bandaged the wound.
It hurt. It was so painful that she couldn't think straight.
She held onto the tree trunk and stood up. However, she only felt that the world before her eyes had turned dark, and her back seemed to have lost all feeling. It was numb, except for the pain that kept coming.
Chu He lost her balance and slipped into unconsciousness. Before she closed her eyes, she vaguely saw a few black soldiers running towards her with guns raised, glaring at her…
…
She was woken up by a cold splash of salt water. The salt water flowed into her wound so that the pain shocked her into consciousness!
"Tssss—" Chu He's eyes snapped open, they were painfully stung by the salt.
Immediately after that, the tight grip around her wrists and her feet that could not feel the ground told her that she was now suspended from a tree branch.
A few black soldiers pointed their guns at her. One of them, who was holding a red scarf tightly, pointed at her and asked in a local language, "Who are you?"
"…"
"Did you kill these brothers?"
"…"
Chu He remained silent throughout.
