Born in the last days, to survive is everything. In order to survive, in order to snatch the only water and oil, no matter how kind people are, they will become crazy. Society that represents order collapses, the vulnerable die, and the rest are drawn into war. Not to die, old Joe, is the winner of this crazy apocalypse.

My name is Cheedo, and I was chosen to be the "wife" of Undying Old Joe because of my good looks. Warboy says we have supremacy as "wives", but I know I'm no different from those inferior breeders who milk all day long.

There are five "wives" like me, all of them girls robbed from various places by the immortal old Joe. Among them, Splendid is the most beautiful, has the strongest character, and is most liked by Old Joe. My other wives and I were taken from a very young age and kept in caves like pets. All the news from the outside world is told by the old mother who takes care of us.

Undead old Joe is a disgusting old man, he will come every few days and pull me or four other girls over and rape me. His wheezing was disgusting, and the yellow water left behind by the ruptured pustules gave off a disgusting smell. Whenever he hits us, Splendid keeps us behind.

Splendid is a brave girl like an angel. Actually, I don't know what an angel is, but what Mammy said should be right.

Later, I met a woman other than Splendid and Mammy, Furiosa. Furiosa is Undying Joe's most trusted commander, sent by Undying Joe to protect us. When we first met, I didn't even recognize her as a woman.

Tall and slender, with short, thorny hair, rough skin, and indifferent eyes. She sits near us with few words, sometimes brushing the gun, sometimes quietly looking into the distance and not knowing what she is thinking.

Recently, Undying Old Joe likes Fragile very much, and will torture her very badly when he is interested. A few of us huddled next to my mother and wept silently, with Fragile's shrill cry in our ears.

Furiosa fixedly looked at Fragile who was unable to reach out his hand, and there seemed to be a trace of pity flashing in his cold eyes. Am I reading it wrong? Can such an indifferent villain have sympathy?

"Where are you from?" Furiosa asked flatly. Splendid froze for a moment, then whispered, "I don't know. We've been brought here since we were kids, and our parents have long since died."

Well, we're all orphans, so pitiful. I hugged Splendid's waist and squeezed my face into her chest. Splendid has a light milky scent on it, which makes me feel at ease.

Furiosa was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Want to leave?"

"Leave?" Splendid's voice changed a bit. I looked up, Splendid's beautiful face twisted a little, but his eyes were full of irrepressible longing. Does Splendid want to get out of here?

"Find me when you're ready." Furiosa gave Splendid a determined look, and then glanced at me huddled in Splendid's arms. I was taken aback by her indifferent eyes, and I quickly retracted and did not dare to look.

"Leave..." I heard Splendid's low voice. She touched my face and her swollen belly, her voice low and sad.

Then, we literally got away!

Mammy didn't leave with us. She said she was too old to take the hardships of the long journey. However, she was very happy that we were able to get out of this den. Yes, she called it the den.

"I don't want our child to be born with that kind of brainwashing. I don't want him to be a tyrant like Undead Joe," Splendid said. Actually I don't quite get it, but everything Splendid said was right. I'll go wherever she goes.

Four other dams and I were hidden under a gasoline-smelling car by Furiosa. There was a harsh roar outside, and the car suddenly bumped abnormally. Have you been found? Are we going to die? I hugged Splendid beside me in horror.

Just as we were huddled and shivering, the hood suddenly opened. I choked on the dust and coughed.

"Come out." It was Furiosa. She gave us a cold look and got up to leave. We helped each other get out of the car and walked barefoot on the sand.

Furiosa took out the tools and started fixing the car, while we gleefully started taking a shower. Although we can also drink more water than ordinary people at Undead Joe's, it is the first time to take a bath like this. We happily washed away the dust that had accumulated for many days, and used cool water to cool our beating hearts from running away.

Suddenly there was a muffled sound, and when we looked back, it turned out to be a man with a gag mask. He pointed the gun at us, paused for a moment, then pointed at the expressionless Furiosa.

I shrank behind Fragile in fear, so scary. Are we going to be taken back?

"We're not going back." Splendid stepped forward, his eyes firm.

The man with the gag frowned slightly and didn't speak. He pointed the gun at the faucet in Splendid's hand, and spat out a dry word, "Water."

Splendid didn't move, and looked at Furiosa beside him. Furiosa nodded, throwing the wrench aside. Is this surrender? Seeing that Furiosa couldn't do anything about that man, I was a little desperate.

Splendid brought the water to the man at Furiosa's gesture. The man gulps the water greedily, but doesn't take his eyes off Splendid for a moment. The man used Splendid as a hostage and had Fragile, who looked the weakest, help him cut the chain connecting the gag.

In the sand sea in the distance, hazy and terrifying shadows slowly appeared. Furiosa took a breathless breath, did she see that too?

Fragile walked over slowly. She picked up the clip and tried hard to cut the chain around the man's neck, but she couldn't do it for a long time. Furiosa's body moved slightly, and then the man who was distracted for a moment slammed to the ground!

I watched the two of them roll around, punching to the flesh, and I was at a loss for a while.

"We're going to help her!" Splendid said, before jumping up and grabbing the chain around the man's neck. I and the others followed behind Splendid to help Furiosa hold the man down. That man was so powerful that even the five of us couldn't control him. After a while, the unconscious warboy also joined the melee.

"We're going to the oasis." Splendid, ignoring the men's threats, ran towards Furiosa's car. The nasty man shot Splendid's calf in a rage, and the blood dripped down her slender calf, which must have been painful. I feel a little distressed, but more of a dazed fear.

The man didn't kill us, he just took our car. However, in such a vast sea of ​​sand, what is the difference between losing cars and supplies and killing us. Capable desperately tries to catch up, but is stopped by Furiosa.

We stand behind Furiosa, watching the car with water and hope get further and further away.

"How's it going?" Furiosa asked calmly as he walked over to Splendid.

"It hurts," Splendid grumbled angrily. Blame Furiosa for not protecting us and the car and hurting Splendid, blame her for being useless! I glared at Furiosa several times indignantly.

"As long as you come out, everything outside will be full of pain." Furiosa's expression was cold, and he didn't mean to console us at all. Splendid gritted his teeth and stopped talking.

"Want to live?" Furiosa looked at Splendid, then at us behind him, and suddenly showed a very faint smile, "Now take your things and run as fast as you can."

We each other Support, run, run, I don't know how long we ran, but our car appeared in front of us! Furiosa, who seemed to have foreseen all this, walked quickly to the car and said to the annoyed man, "The brakes I designed myself, without me, this car can't go anywhere."

The man looked at us in confusion, then at Furiosa. I felt a burst of pleasure. Humph, let you rob our car, you deserve it!

"You can come up." The man was annoyed for a moment, but immediately regained his calm. He didn't even look at us, and motioned for Furiosa to go up. Fragile and I are holding hands tightly, will Furiosa lose us?

"Impossible, we have to go together." Furiosa said without hesitation. I breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the man secretly.

The man thought for a while, moved out of the way,

and then we got back into the car. The nasty man grabbed all the weapons into his hands, Fragile scolded him angrily, but he ignored it. I huddled beside Splendid, stroking her bulging belly, afraid to speak.

The baby in Splendid kicked me hard. If he hadn't escaped, Splendid would have given birth in a month.

Undying Old Joe finally caught up. As you can see, he is very angry! He took away almost all the fighting power in the oasis, just to get back us and get back the high-level seed mother who gave birth to him. Watching Furiosa vomit blood while trying to escape the undead Joe's pursuit, I thought more than once that maybe we shouldn't have escaped at all.

If we don't escape, we will still be Undying Old Joe's favorite seed mother. Even if it's humiliating, we can still live.

"We're not yours!" Splendid opened the car door and blocked Old Joe's attack with his body. Her voice trembled slightly, but her eyes were firm.
Why does Splendid have such a firm belief? I suddenly felt a little jealous and a little inferior.

"Don't use rockets to attack!" Undead Joe angrily shot the warboy who nearly injured Splendid, his voice hoarse, "You are my property, mine!"

Splendid firmly opened his arms, facing Undying Joe Frowning defiantly.

Be careful, be careful. When I saw the boulder in front of me, my face turned pale with fright, and I hurried to pull Splendid. Splendid saw the boulder, too, and she turned around in shock and jumped to the point where the cars joined.

so close. We were almost in tears. Even the man was stunned for a moment by Splendid's boldness and agility, and then gave a thumbs up.

"Splendid, come on up!" Fragile reached for her. But just as their fingers were about to touch, Splendid suddenly slipped. She grabbed the car door tightly with a look of astonishment, and the next second she was caught under the car that was chasing quickly behind her!

We were all terrified by this sudden turn of events! I yelled and cried, only to watch Splendid's frail body disappear under the huge car.

"Turn around, turn around and go back!" Capable threatened him with a frantic choking on the man's neck. Fragile and I were so out of breath weeping, we had absolutely no energy to do anything. Without Splendid, what's the point of me leaving Old Joe? Without Splendid, who can I rely on?

I was so sad that I almost fainted from crying.

"Did you really see it?" Furiosa asked sharply. I also pricked up my ears, hoping to hear negative news from the man, even though I had witnessed it with my own eyes.

"She was run over by a wheel." The man said calmly. He pulled Capable's hand away and continued to drive forward.

"Did you really see it?" Furiosa repeated. The man turned his head and looked at Furiosa fixedly, saying, "She was run over by a wheel." After hearing his words, I was completely desperate.

"Let's move on."

I didn't want to do anything, I didn't want to hear anything, I just wanted to go back to where I was. What is it to be a slave, what is it to be raped, as long as I am alive, as long as Splendid is by my side. I collapsed to the ground crying, barely able to breathe.

"I want to go back! I want to go back! I don't want to run away, I want to go back to him!" I jumped out of the car and ran frantically into the distance. Hope, oasis, freedom, what is that! As long as Splendid lives, as long as we all live!

Without saying a word, Furiosa picked up the gun and killed the pursuers under Undead Old Joe. I collapsed to the ground collapsed, and let the others pick me up and get back into the car.

Where is the oasis, where is the hope. I looked out the window at the sea of ​​sand where the sky and the earth were connected in a line, and my heart was at a loss.

"Follow me to the oasis, where you will be free," Furiosa said. She raised her head, her eyes slightly reddened. Is she sad? Is she also grieving for Splendid? I secretly guessed. However, how could a cold-hearted person like her understand my grief.

"She's dead, you're still alive." Furiosa handed me a gun, and it was discouragingly calm, "No one will be your pillar, you can only fight by yourself." The

loaded gun pressed against me His hands were hot and heavy. I subconsciously wanted to throw the gun away, but remembering the determined look on Splendid's arms outstretched, I clenched my hands uncannily.

Oasis, will be there one day.
