Russell really needs the help of these researchers to spread the news of the mutated spiders in Prosperity Town, but what is needed is what is needed, and the researchers are not doing it for nothing.If you want to become famous, how can you do it without paying a price? This account must be settled clearly.
Furthermore, you can't be too generous, otherwise the other party doesn't know what it means to cherish!
Facts have proved that those who can afford research belong to the rich class no matter how poor they are.Especially for a few elderly professors, they have patents in their hands, so they are not the ones who are short of money.
The fellows, who didn't have that much cash, and couldn't possibly have, came to Russell waving checks.At this time, the advantage of a large number of people is reflected, because each person is limited to purchase, whichever team has more people will buy more spiders.
Samantha and Chris were dumbfounded, watching Russell being surrounded by a group of experts and professors asking about his health, and earning hundreds of thousands of dollars every minute, they didn't know what to say.
Chris was surprised by Russell's growth. His younger brother is mercenary and has great potential as a businessman. Even if the mine is gone, he can still do business without any worries.
Samantha is worried about her daughter. Although Ashley is young, beautiful and proud, and looks like a big star at first glance, but men turn bad when they have money. Who knows what Russell will become in the future.
There is a saying that is good, men are single-minded, they all like 18-year-old beautiful girls in their lives!
Ashley will be 19 next year!
Russell's plan was successful, because the researchers made trouble, and Samantha didn't find that a few spiders were killed by shooting, although she also wondered how Russell killed so many spiders.
Before Samantha could ask, Russell blocked her doubts back, "Now is not the time to talk about this, the town is facing an unprecedented crisis, I don't know how many of these spiders are left, but I have indeed seen bigger spiders , in the mine."
Samantha's face turned serious, "I will explain the seriousness to the higher-ups and send specialists to deal with the crisis. The town is no longer safe, and I have to organize the residents to evacuate."
Russell shook his head, "With all due respect, evacuating is tantamount to death. Spiders will not let the prey in the web escape. The entrances and exits of mines are all over the town, and we are in the web now. If you insist on letting everyone evacuate, the spiders will not let them escape." Will agree, many will die on the way."
Samantha's face turned pale. This is indeed the truth, but staying in the small town is tantamount to being trapped in a cocoon, or a dead end.
Chris took over the words, "We have to find a way to protect ourselves. Spiders may be lurking in any corner. Many people have disappeared. Before reinforcements arrive, we can only rely on ourselves."
"If it's just for self-protection, the residents have weapons in their homes..." Samantha closed her mouth halfway through her words. Looking at the number of dead spiders in the basement, you can tell that the residents are cold with automatic rifles in their hands. "I hope the government will respond. Hurry up, it is best to send troops to station here..."
Russell said seriously, "Let everyone go to the weapon store in the town to add some equipment, and the rest...you can ask for blessings!"
"I'm going to the radio station!"
After Samantha finished speaking, she left in a hurry, Russell grabbed Chris who wanted to leave, and waved the check in his hand, "Let's go to a nearby city. There are many good guys in the gun shop there, but I don't have a gun license. It's up to you."
Chris swallowed, "No need, let's go to Samantha to borrow some, there are a lot of guns in the police station."
Russell looked disdainful, "Are you trying to commit suicide? The last time I saw Pete maintaining a Winchester at the police station, it was an antique from World War I, and its collection value was greater than its practical value. There's a bullet out."
Chris was dumbfounded, he didn't want to be too far away from Samantha at this juncture, he struggled and said, "But what about the spiders, didn't you say they won't let us go?"
"You think too much, the two of us only weigh more than 300 pounds, and the spiders won't go to war."
Chris was persuaded by Russell, and the two drove quickly to a nearby city, the city where Russell and Ashley were dating.On the way, they saw a lot of police cars driving in the direction of Prosperous Town.
Samantha... No, it should be the opinions of several experts and professors that have attracted the attention of the conquest department, but I don't know how much they value!
……
The United States is a country with a prosperous gun culture and the proliferation of guns. The number of new weapon stores added every year is more than that of supermarkets with the same capital injection. There are almost every street, and the ordinary ones are like sporting goods stores.
Russell and Chris went to the bank first, and then went to the weapon store after transferring the money. The city and the small town are really not the same weight. Russell saw the famous Barrett 82 sniper rifle as soon as he entered the door.
127 sniper rifle, with long-range accuracy and great power, is known as the most lethal weapon that the American people can obtain according to law. Tennessee even positions it as a state gun, because the designer of this gun, Mr. Barrett, is a Tennessee people.
God knows how the brains of the American imperialists grow. Barrett's heavy-duty sniper is designed, and it is not used to deal with people at all, but it can be bought in weapon stores.
For example, the one in front of Russell... is priced at $1!
Russell took a few glances and didn't pay attention. Barrett is indeed powerful, but it's too exaggerated to use it to hit spiders. Besides, he doesn't know how to use sniper.
Before coming here, Samantha greeted her acquaintances in the police station. There were orders from her superiors, and the local police also knew that Prosperity Town was not peaceful.Special circumstances are treated specially. The local police issued a certificate and notified the owner of the weapon shop. Russell and Chris purchased guns on behalf of the Prosperity Town Police Department, as much as they wanted.
Samantha worked so hard, of course, not because Russell was Chris' younger brother, but because Russell promised that after the spider was dealt with, he would donate guns and ammunition to the town police station for free.
Russell's first choice is 4a1, he is most familiar with this rifle, in addition to buying a dozen rounds of 9 magazines.Chris chose the shotgun, originally he wanted to get the p5, but there was no real one, and the clones were too expensive to afford.
The owner of the weapon shop was a good character, and he didn't take the opportunity to rip off customers. He recommended the p320 pistol, 20 full size, to the two of them.The modular pistol is cheap to manufacture. It is said that changing the name in the future will replace the 9 and become the standard equipment of the US Army.
Chris took a handful, and Russell took it over and felt it. It was cheap, but it was not easy to hold. He still liked 9.
Considering the overwhelming number of spiders, Russell discussed with Chris and planned to go back to organize the miners and arm them into a small team.Ever since, I bought 5 4a1s, as well as a large number of bullets and magazines.
In addition, Russell also bought a few stab-proof suits. The enemy is a spider, and the stab-proof suits will play a role to some extent.
Looking at the weapons and ammunition loaded into the pickup truck, the owner of the weapons store gave Russell a thumbs up. As expected of a prosperous town with mines, he is really rich.
Russell is not to be blamed for having a phobia of lack of firepower. He had the root cause of the disease before time travel. The general environment dictated it, and all rabbits were like this.
The owner of the weapon shop lit a beautiful knife and grinned from ear to ear, "Guys, I heard that something happened in Prosperity Town. I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it. Tell me honestly, are you at war, or Are aliens coming to rob your mines?
"No! is spider, an!"
"ideran!?"

I often tell myself that it doesn't matter if today is a hit, and there is no need to worry, because tomorrow will still be a hit.
Chapter 54 Character Cards About Cameras
Driving back to Prosperity Town, when the evening was approaching, Russell and Chris came to the mine, preparing to arm the miners, but found no one there.
"Maybe they left work early, after all, it's not safe now..." Chris comforted himself.
There was no one in the office, and he called home, but no one answered.While worrying about Aunt Gladys, the announcer's voice came from the loudspeaker, calling on the townspeople to bring their weapons and go to the mall to gather.
Russell's heart skipped a beat. Today's mine is very different, giving him an extremely dangerous feeling. He didn't dare to procrastinate. He pulled Chris into the car and went straight to the shopping center.
On the way, I saw many residents rushing towards the shopping center with their families. If it was only Samantha, it would not be enough to call everyone to action, but police cars drove into Prosperous Town one by one, and opened the cordon , can not help but they do not believe.
At the entrance of the shopping center, a row of police cars with flashing lights lined up to intercept all vehicles.The police are dredging order and asking people to park their cars to act as obstacles and isolate the buffer zone.
The pickup truck driven by Chris was also stopped, but when Russell lifted the tarpaulin behind the car, revealing a full gun and ammunition, the pickup truck was released.
As soon as the car was parked on this side, a few policemen came to the other side, wanting to requisition the ammunition on the car.To be honest, the weapons on the car are definitely better for the police than the miners, but the guns and bullets did not fall from the sky.
The conversation between the two parties was not pleasant. Fortunately, Samantha arrived in time. With her as the middleman, an agreement was quickly reached. Russell generously allocated most of the ammunition to the other party and asked the police to move his ammunition into the shopping mall.
The researchers of the three teams were also in the mall, and it was precisely because they confirmed that spiders like to move at night that all the townspeople took refuge and gathered in the mall.
Residents of the small town were still arriving one after another. Russell looked at the huge three-story building and felt that it was not a good idea to gather nearly a thousand people together.The spiders will hit and attack here, and the pressure they will face will be more terrifying than the spider wave in the original book.
This is also a last resort. The incident happened too suddenly, and the number of police officers was insufficient, so it would be useless to disperse.
