Samantha was stunned: "You should have come earlier. Chris was here just now."
Luke thought of the handsome middle-aged man: "Is that the guy who just left you?"
Samantha nodded. "Yes, he is the son of old McCormick. The McCormick Mine belongs to him now. How about I give him a call and ask for his opinion?"
Of course Luke and the others agreed.
But the two did not go into the house. Instead, they sat side by side on the porch fence and looked out at the town in the morning sun.
"It's so beautiful." Selina sighed, "It's a pity that this place is going to be abandoned."
Luke just nodded, but he didn't feel too much regret in his heart.
There are many beautiful remote towns like this in the United States. In his previous life in China, Luke had also visited several remote and unknown towns. They also had green mountains and clear waters, winding paths, and were no worse than many so-called tourist attractions.
But for various reasons, these beautiful towns will eventually become desolate places that no one cares about.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Samantha came out with an embarrassed look on her face: "He should have gone to the mine. I can't contact him. How about I take you there?"
Luke and the other man didn't want to waste time and agreed immediately.
A moment later, the three people and two cars set off again.
After arriving at the mine, Luke took note of the environment there and discovered that the mine was not far from the spider farm, only separated by a small hill, and the straight-line distance was about one kilometer.
He suspected that the spider had entered the mine and used it as its new nest.
Chris, who was downstairs in the mine, was called up through the intercom. Samantha pulled him aside and talked to him for a while before the two of them came over.
The three of them shook hands and exchanged greetings politely. Chris smiled bitterly and said, "My aunt thinks too highly of this place. After all, it is something left by my father. They have worked here all their lives. Anyway, I can provide some help. There are a few old miners under the mine. They are more familiar with the terrain than I am. How about you ask them for details first?"
Luke thanked him with a smile, feeling relieved.
Experienced miners are sometimes more useful than blueprints, as they know many specific situations that are not indicated on the blueprints.
No one wanted to go down. It was too unsafe to discuss things in the mine.
Chris also said that they are re-exploring the area below, and it is very likely that they will enter some abandoned mine tunnels with high concentrations of gas.
That thing will explode if not handled properly, which is one of the reasons why the mine was previously judged to be exhausted, because many places are blocked by gas.
Before new mineral veins are identified, not many people dare to risk their lives to search for them in those gas-filled tunnels.
Several old miners came up and talked to Luke and the other man for a long time.
Finally, Luke discovered that there was some gas near the spider farm, so the workers began to look for new veins, but they had not explored that area yet.
Luke's balls hurt.
If there was gas there, he wouldn't even dare to fire a gun, so how could he just take a knife and chop around
He is not the Hulk with unlimited power. It is very dangerous to fight them in a mine that looks like a spider's nest.
He couldn't just blow up the mine just because he suspected there was a giant spider.
This is a gold mine. Even though it has been exhausted, these miners and many families in the town hope to find a new vein from it so that the town can be revitalized again.
If you want to solve the problem of the giant spider, you still have to make preparations and go down to investigate.
After getting the evidence, you can report to the FBI and let them deal with these monsters.
After talking to Luke, he could only make an appointment with Chris to wait for him at a fast food restaurant in town at noon to bring the mining information over.
Luke and the others also said that they did not need any geological analysis or other information, just a mine map would be enough.
Afterwards, the two of them left tactfully without calling Samantha.
Just by looking at the two middle-aged men and women who made eye contact from time to time, they knew there was something fishy.
After returning to the town, Luke and his companions began to check their guns. This equipment might come in handy, so they couldn't be careless.
The magazines were all loaded, and Luke also took out a few tear gas canisters and placed them in the car.
Selina didn't doubt it either.
The weapon storage boxes in the front and back of the vehicle were organized by Luke, and she knew exactly how many guns were in them.
But she didn't pay much attention to how many magazines there were, but it was definitely more than ten.
Therefore, she had no idea that Luke had taken the opportunity to throw out ten more rifle magazines and twenty homemade tear gas bombs from the storage space.
After doing this, it was noon and the two went to the fast food restaurant next door to have lunch.
Chris arrived as promised and handed them the mine drawings.
Watching the guy hurried away, Selina laughed, "He shaved. It seems that he is still very positive about Samantha."
Luke touched his face regretfully.
He would like to grow a beard to make his young face look more mature.
A carefully trimmed beard like Tony Stark's would be fine, and Luke has plenty of time and his hands are deft and precise, so it's no problem for him to do it himself.
Unfortunately, he has a beard now, but it is not thick and lush enough to be trimmed into that beautiful shape.
Selina looked at his actions and immediately laughed: "Give up on this idea, just be a gigolo for the rest of your life."
Luke was speechless.
His skin is quite fair and thanks to his self-healing ability, he doesn't get tanned.
Why is Wolf so dark? It's because his skin is naturally darker.
The two spent the afternoon studying the mine blueprints in a corner of the fast food restaurant.
Luke thought that he should go in and take a look early tomorrow morning.
If guns can't be used, then use cold weapons such as bows, crossbows and spears.
If you really encounter danger, never fight to the death, you can just run away.
There are also some irritant sprays and gas masks in his storage space, which can still have some effect on spiders.
He only had a limited time in this town and couldn't stay there doing nothing.
Gradually, the time approached six o'clock, the sun set, and a golden-red sunset glow appeared in the sky.
Suddenly, Luke's ears moved, he frowned, stood up, and whispered: "Selina, go out and get your gun, beware of attacks."
Selina immediately followed and whispered, "What's wrong?"
Luke continued to whisper: "The spiders are coming out." He looked at the sun that was about to set in the sky and thought of what Mike said.
Most spiders are afraid of light and therefore prefer to hunt at night.
As he walked out, he called Samantha's cell phone. When he was about to speak, the beautiful sheriff spoke first: "Luke, something happened. Gladys was taken away by a spider."
Luke: … Why does this line sound so familiar
He didn't have time to waste time, and said directly: "I was just about to tell you that I have discovered that spiders are attacking the residents of the town. If you have any way, try to notify everyone to gather in a safer place."
