"You wait, when I prove my theory, I will announce it to the entire academic community and call on everyone to boycott you idiot!"
"Old man, that's exactly what I'm going to say."
After being dragged away by the crowd, an old professor straightened his clothes, took out his checkbook and shouted at the crowd, "I bid $1000 for each spider, and the price of live spiders doubles. I want as many as I have."
"You scum who blasphemes science, you actually link academics with money, I despise you..." Another old professor seemed to be irritated, and also took out his checkbook, his neck flushed and shouted to the stunned crowd, "Everyone listen , That poor man is not worthy of studying science, I will add another $500 to his offer, and I want all the spiders."
"Then I'll double it!"
"I triple!"
"Quadruple!"
"Follow!"
"..."
Click!Swish————
There was a series of sounds of gun bolts being pulled, and the style of the shopping center changed, making the air a bit hotter!
The sobbing stopped abruptly, the women changed their faces in a second, wiped away their tears, and gave their husbands a look, and the children showed their parents a gesture of encouragement.
The man with the gun had no expression on his face, and took out a red cloth belt from his trouser pocket to tie it on his head. His melancholy facial features instantly became extremely tough, and the sadness in his eyes was no longer, replaced by determination and indifference.
Even the dogs who had their tails tucked back began to grin their teeth at this moment, their eyes showed wolf-like ferocity, and they let out low whining sounds from their throats.
At the corner of the wall, more than a dozen cats squatted quietly, their tails sweeping back and forth on the ground, their pupils flickered, their sharp claws popped out of the meat balls, and they even stuck out their tongues to lick them.
People without guns were secretly distressed. They were looking for weapons in the shopping mall. A young man approached the owner of the gun shop and whispered, "You just said that this revolver is sold at half price. Is it still counting?"
Gun shop owner: "Sorry, you mistook the person, I'm his brother."
The military is excited!
No, the morale is like a rainbow!
……
Russell came to the first floor. There was an empty parking lot in front of the main entrance of the shopping center. The first line of defense was residents' cars, and the last line was police cars.
The police are currently on the first line of defense. They have fewer than fifty people, and the enemy is an endless wave of spiders.
Russell carried the 4a1 on the car and waited quietly for the spiders to approach. Shooting on level ground was more effective than condescending strafing.As long as you hold down the tip of the gun, you can basically shoot without missing a shot, especially with a powerful rifle, it is not surprising that a single shot can penetrate the body of several spiders.
The police chief glanced at Russell, gave him an appreciative look, and said to his subordinates, "When the spider gets closer to 50 meters before shooting, remember to keep the gun steady and don't shoot in bursts!"
"Sir, there are too many spiders, and we will run out of ammunition soon."
The police chief was silent for a moment, and said firmly, "So I said, don't fire in bursts."
Before he finished speaking, dozens of murderous residents rushed out of the shopping center and came here with a whimper, almost pushing him out of the battle line.
Russell looked dazed, and said in his heart that they are indeed the people of the United States who love to die the most. Although they like to confront the president and preach that aliens invade the earth all day long, their ability to accept new things is really strong, so they eased up so quickly. coming.
The policeman smacked his tongue, held on to the police cap that was almost squeezed out, and said to Russell, "Prosperity Town is really tough, and you are the bravest people I have ever seen."
Russell blinked, "Aren't all the people of the American Empire like this?"
"What, why don't I know?"
"Wang Wang Wang!"
Fadou Bruce sprinted to Russell's feet, barking at the approaching spider in the gap between the two cars.
Russell didn't know what happened, so he kicked it away, "Stupid dog, go back quickly, your few catties of meat are not enough for a spider to suffocate."
The giant spider was running on eight legs, at a very fast speed, approaching the shopping center and speeding up again.The police chief measured the approximate distance and fired the first shot, splashing a cloud of green mist in the spider swarm.
Deafening gunshots rang out one after another, clusters of flames flickered suddenly, and a transparent wall was built in front of the spider wave.Big balls of green juice shot out, and the spiders screamed and fell down, harvested in pieces like straw.
In order to save ammunition, the police chief asked everyone to fire intermittently. The police were well-trained and strictly followed orders.Although the residents of the town couldn't do it, most of their weapons were pistols and shotguns, and the speed at which they consumed bullets was within an acceptable range.
The spider's head is in the chest cavity, called the cephalothorax, and moves forward on four pairs of legs. With their small heads, they don't understand the meaning of death, so they don't hesitate to face the hail of bullets.
This was brave, and directly caused the green juice to spill all over the ground, and the spider's corpses piled up into a small slope, making shooting more difficult.
"Don't waste bullets, retreat to the second line of defense!"
During the retreat, the firepower in front of the shopping center dropped, and the spiders roared and charged, and the waves were even faster than before.After entering modern warfare, human beings no longer advocate group charging, and it is strongly forbidden to catch bullets with their faces, but spiders don't understand that even if their companions are headshot, they still charge forward shoulder to shoulder across the corpse.
Soon, another small slope accumulated.
There is only the last line of defense left. Although the police chief is unwilling, he can only order to continue to retreat.
Russell "How long before the army arrives?"
"Soon, they said it would be here."
Russell "..."
There are many interpretations of the word "immediately", and the concept is very vague. According to the law, reinforcements basically appear in the first second after the event ends.

Chapter 56 Retreat to the Mall
On the square in front of the shopping center, the first two lines of defense were captured by the spider sea tactics, and they followed each other, advancing all the way to the last line of defense.
A defensive line of police cars.
Because of the lack of ammunition, the gunshots were much less than before. The policeman was stern, and the situation was urgent. It was time to show his cards.
A black police officer received the order, turned around and ran towards the side entrance of the shopping mall, but drove a freight truck over after a while.It's not that they want to crush the spiders to death, but there are more than a dozen gasoline cans in the back of the car, collected from shopping malls.
The black policeman drove his car in the direction of the spider wave, pushed the accelerator to death and jumped out of the car. A jumping spider jumped out of the spider wave and rushed towards the black policeman.
clatter!clatter!clatter!
4a1 fired three bursts, the giant jumping spider was blown up in the air, the black policeman was covered in sticky juice, and he was so frightened that he rolled and ran all the way.
"Good marksmanship!"
The head of the police gave Russell a thumbs up. He didn't have time to talk too much. He raised his gun and aimed at the gasoline tank on the car. It was time for him to perform.
