Bang!

Luke raised his hand and fired two shots, killing a spider that was hanging from the roof and trying to attack him. He then turned around and kicked the spider's body away.

While lying on his side, the gun in his hand also turned in another direction.

Bang! A spider that jumped up from the other wall to attack was knocked down.

Luke let go of the M4A1, letting it hang on the crook of his arm, and used both hands to adjust back to a normal position.

His right leg stabbed out like lightning, and before the long spider claws closed, he kicked hard on the head of a spider that was pouncing from below.

The leather boots with a layer of special alloy directly crushed a piece of the spider's head, and it slammed to the ground, exploding into a pool of mud.

Everyone on the second floor who was pulling the climbing rope together was wondering: What is this guy doing outside? Why is the rope dangling

If four people don't work together, I'm afraid they won't be able to pull the rope steadily.

In fact, this series of attacks only took place within five seconds, and Luke was finally pulled to the window.

He grabbed the window and slid in easily, already shouting, "Selena, tear gas."

Selina understood immediately and took out the tear gas from her body and threw it into the open space in front of the gate.

Accompanied by bursts of smoke rising, the fierce tide of spiders suddenly stopped, then became chaotic and ran around in all directions.

Luke shouted, "Those with guns, start attacking. Be careful not to be rushed by spiders. Don't shoot too fast. Aim carefully. Shoot in groups of four. Take turns shooting. Pay attention to coordination to fill any gaps."

While shouting, he ran past several windows, took off the tear gas canisters on his body and threw them out.

He threw it a little farther than Serina, about twenty meters away.

The rapidly rising smoke forced the spiders to bypass the range of these smoke clusters in order to continue their attack, which invisibly restricted their speed and route of movement.

Everyone in the house had already opened fire, but as Luke reminded them, their shooting speed was not very fast.

Of course, the smoke bomb thrown by Selina was a little too close, and a few unlucky people accidentally smelled a little bit of the tear gas mist drifting over, and immediately stepped back to rest with tears in their eyes.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Compared to the losses suffered by the spiders, the losses suffered by the townspeople were only minor.

After Luke threw the tear gas, he began to replace magazines and load bullets for all the guns on him.

After loading the shotgun, he casually threw it to Selina.

With the fortified shopping center and the coordinated resistance of the townspeople, Selina can use this semi-automatic shotgun better than the M4A1.

While watching the battle, he asked someone to find Samantha.

The beautiful sheriff also arranged for everyone on the first floor to retreat to the inner part of the shopping mall, and asked the remaining townspeople with guns to set up a defense line to prevent the spiders from rushing in through the main gate, which would have killed a large number of people.

Soon, Samantha came up, and Luke said quickly, "I've asked the FBI for help, but it will probably take at least an hour. We should at least be prepared to hold out for that hour. Also, we have to keep an eye out for a retreat. Where's Mayor Wade? Isn't this his business? Go ask him if there's a more suitable evacuation route."

His plan was that if any problems arose, he would let Samantha lead everyone to gradually retreat, lure the spiders in here, and then blow up a few entrances and exits so that they could not get out in a short time.

But it would be better to test Wade's attitude first. He always felt that the mayor was not an easy person to talk to.

It would be disgusting if they insisted on suing him for illegal destruction of private property and asked Luke to pay a large sum of money afterwards.

Samantha: "Okay, I'll go find Wade." Then she was about to leave.

Luke called her and took out a walkie-talkie from his backpack: "Take it and just use channel one."

Samantha also breathed a sigh of relief. Running around to discuss things really took up too much time and could easily lead to problems.

The townspeople downstairs were still in shock, and it was very likely that if someone shouted "Spiders are coming in", they would all panic and run around.

Seeing that the situation was temporarily stabilized, Luke told Selina and Samantha that he was going to the roof to take a look around to avoid being broken through by the spiders from above.

These guys can climb stairs.

This shopping mall only has three floors, and Luke only took a few steps to reach the third floor.

I don't know what was wrong with Mayor Wade's thinking. He built a shopping mall here for no apparent reason. As a result, there are only some shops on the first floor, and the second floor is left empty with only a small amount of goods piled up.

The third floor is even more exaggerated. It is a completely bare building with only the infrastructure completed. There is not a single bit of decoration. The cement floor is still in a rough sandy state. If someone falls on it, they will get their skin scratched.

There are no windows around, it is completely enclosed, so no spiders can get in.

Luke muttered about the business acumen of a certain mayor as he climbed a few more steps and arrived at the door to the rooftop.

His keen hearing could already hear a lot of noises outside the door; it was the spider moving.

He looked around and found nothing suitable, so he simply took out a few long alloy steel wires from the storage space and used the surrounding pipes and stair railings to block the door.

In this way, even if the door is destroyed, the legs of a giant spider that tries to get in will be cut off by the alloy steel wires.

After finishing this, he installed and activated a camera on a pillar more than ten meters away from the rooftop door before going downstairs.

He couldn't go to the rooftop, and opening the door would create an opportunity for the spiders to break through, so he had better go down to the second floor and fight a protracted battle with the spiders.

When I got to the second floor, I found that most people were wearing headphones.

This is what Selina asked Samantha to find in the store downstairs. The continuous shooting in a closed space is really unbearable for human ears. Now I can barely bear it with headphones.

It's better to feel uncomfortable than to be rushed in and eaten by a spider.

Samantha said on the intercom at this moment: "Luke, Wade is missing. Someone said that there was a hole under the storage room, which was a branch of the original mine."

Luke was stunned: "Mine? Right here?"

This is the center of the town, how could a mine suddenly appear? There was no such thing in the mine information he had read before.

Chris suddenly interrupted and quickly explained, "This town was originally a settlement for workers built on the site of a gold mine. But this old mine has been abandoned for 10 or 20 years, and there is no mark on the drawings. Wade's shopping center is located above this old mine."

Luke suddenly realized: "What do you think?"

Samantha mentioned this old mine, obviously not because she was concerned about Mayor Wade's safety. If this guy died, many people in the town would probably have a party to celebrate.

Samantha: "I was wondering if we could lead everyone out of this old mine and evacuate this town. There are too many spiders in this town."
