In the brief battle just now, Luke had fired nonstop and used up almost three clips. The M4A1 had heated up quickly, and smoke could be seen wafting out of it.
The gun barrels of modern rifles had long lifespans overall, but if they were fired incessantly and the barrel overheated, this would greatly affect the gun’s accuracy. It was even possible that the bullets might get stuck or even explode inside the gun.
It was unlikely that a gun which Luke had modified would explode, but stuck bullets could be fatal in a fierce battle.
He didn’t want to lose this gun when the battle had just started. Although he had more guns in his inventory, he didn’t plan to use his unregistered secret weapon unless it was necessary.
The Glock was much less powerful than the M4A1, but Luke was very familiar with this gun. Since it was smaller, it was more suitable for use in a car than the M4A1.
He didn’t think about trying to kill the spiders anymore, and simply stopped them from jumping onto the car and obstructing it.
Samantha’s car was in front of them. If he didn’t stop the spiders behind him, Samantha would soon be surrounded by this troop of spiders. Luke used up two Glock clips very quickly. He then grabbed Selina’s M4A1. She hadn’t fired as much as Luke, so her gun was still usable. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Luke missed a target as the car was moving at high speed, and a spider almost hit the car.
Thankfully, he reacted fast enough and shot the spider again at the last moment.
Finally, they reached a relatively tall and new building. It was a shopping center built by Wade, mayor of the town.
Who the hell knew why he had built a shopping center when the town was about to go bankrupt, but it was now the only shelter that the residents of the town had.
Unlike the houses of the residents, which were mostly made of wood on muddy ground, this shopping center was a concrete building and a lot more solid, with a metal roller shutter over the entrance.
Drawing out the Glock again, Luke said, “Don’t park our car at the entrance. Drive twenty meters away.”
Selina was surprised. “What?” Luke said, “The spiders will definitely charge at the entrance later, and I don’t want my car to be painted in the green and black fluid from the spiders.”
Selina: Bro, you still have such high demands when we’re fleeing for our lives?
Still, she did as Luke said.
Seizing that brief moment, Luke took out the Benelli M1041 and its bullets from the box.
The car screeched to a stop ten meters to one side of the shopping center.
Selina grabbed the M4A1 that Luke had just reloaded and got out.
When Luke got out, he raised his right hand and pulled the trigger. With a bam, a spider that had been scuttling toward Samantha’s family from the side was blown away.
Samantha’s family was fine, but unfortunately, the disgusting fluid splattered over Peter, dyeing him black and green.
“Samantha, go inside and gather everybody on the second floor to stop these things,” Luke shouted. He had noticed that the second floor had a lot of windows that could be opened.
It was possible for the spiders to crawl in through the windows, but if everyone worked together, those windows would also be of great use in a counterattack. Samantha’s family was still in a panicked state.
After all, a bunch of spiders had chased them all the way here.
After Luke said that, Samantha shouted anxiously, “There’s a huge spider behind us. It’s chasing us, too.”
Luke smiled grimly. “I know. I’ll take care of it.”
As he spoke, the ground shook slightly, and he fired his shotgun, blowing away three spiders that had come rushing in within ten meters. Luke’s gaze then shifted to a turn in an alley. On the other side, Selina was urging Samantha and the others to enter the shopping center.
Only after they were inside could they roll down the metal shutter over the shopping center’s entrance.
Selina was well aware that if Luke wanted to enter, he wouldn’t use the entrance.
As the shutter slowly rolled down behind Luke, Selina quickly ran to the second floor and said, “Samantha, get people organized. Half of the men with guns will come with me to get rid of the small spiders on the second floor.”
Everybody was lost for words. Were spiders that could wrap their legs around a human being small?
Luke fired his shotgun and blew away the few spiders that were close to him. He then dropped to one knee.
He put the shotgun on his bent leg, drew out the Glock with his left hand, and then quickly loaded a few special bullets into his shotgun from his belt of bullets.
Two spiders dropped down on Luke from a nearby building.
While loading the bullets with his right hand, Luke raised the Glock in his left hand.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The two spiders jerked and fell in front of him in a spray of fluid.
Bang! Bang!
Without raising his head, Luke shot a spider that was crawling down from the top of the shopping center and planning to attack him from behind. He then put the Glock back into the holster and rose.
The Benelli had been reloaded. Luke picked up the shotgun and raised it.
As the ground shook, a gargantuan thing emerged from around the corner of a street nearby.
It was almost as tall as a house. Including its furry legs, it was almost ten meters in diameter and looked like a tank.
It turned out to be a super huge tarantula.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
The semi-automatic Benelli unleashed the fiercest firepower, and Luke shot seven bullets into the huge monster.
The tarantula as huge as a house was truly intimidating, but it didn’t have quick responses. It had barely shown up, when seven enormous holes appeared in it.
Being hit consecutively by a shotgun in a range of thirty meters wasn’t a privilege that a human being could enjoy since they would’ve been blown away after the first hit.
This monstrous tarantula obviously wasn’t made of steel either.
A mix of black, yellow and green fluid spurted out from the seven enormous holes in its body. It came to an abrupt stop and convulsed like mad, and didn’t seem half as horrifying as before.
Calmly, Luke put the Benelli, which had run out of bullets, on his back, and raised the M4A1 which had already cooled down. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Three spiders that had drawn close while he was dealing with the enormous tarantula were blown up mercilessly. Then, Selina shouted from above, “Grab the rope!”
Looking around warily, Luke grabbed a rope that had been dropped down and said, “Pull me up.”
The rope immediately stretched taut, and it clearly wasn’t just one person who was pulling
Holding his gun in his other hand, Luke quickly ascended to the second floor.
