Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 303 The Nature of Human Beings

Thanks to the memories of his previous life, there was one principle that Luke was aware of.

What were human beings like?

They were repeaters by nature.

Recalling classic cases in marketing and advertising, he knew that a long speech often wasn’t as effective as a simple one played on a loop, which was the easiest to remember in a short period of time. At that point, night had already fallen.

The few lamps on the town’s main road also lit up, but they only made the previously peaceful town look even more terrifying.

There seemed to be a giant spider lurking in every dark corner where the light couldn’t reach.

Luke was firing his M4A1 much more frequently, but he still maintained a fixed rhythm.

Naturally, his gunshots attracted many residents who were fleeing in panic.

Gunshots meant human beings who were resisting the monstrous spiders. When the residents approached the source of the gunshots, they heard Luke’s announcement on repeat.

Luke and Selina basically didn’t have to say a word as they simply focused on hitting the spiders that were after the residents.

Luke had no time to talk. For each resident that he saved from the giant spiders that were hunting them, he was rewarded with twenty experience and credit points by the system.

This was simply the best raid for experience and credit points.

He and Selina cooperated well. He was strong, his reactions were swift, and his shots were precise. There was barely any recoil from the M4A1 for him.

Selina’s M4A1 had also been modified with additional fittings that could help her control the gun more easily.

She was mainly responsible for eliminating the spiders that slipped through. She didn’t fire as frequently, but her reactions were also very quick.

Just like that, one attacked and the other covered for him. The gunfire wasn’t especially rushed, and they killed all the giant spiders that came within a hundred meters of them.

Not long after that, they heard a broadcast by Samantha on the street. “Folks, this is Sheriff Samantha. We are now in a state of emergency. Giant spiders have appeared in town and are attacking people. If you don’t have solid shelter, please take your weapons and ammunition with you, and drive to the shopping center. I will establish a defense line there and protect everyone. This is not a joke, I repeat, this is not a joke. Please take action immediately for your own safety.”

Luke and Selina were relieved. The broadcast was quite loud, and many people should be able to hear it.

The broadcast should be on the town’s radio frequency, so it should be able to reach even more people listening to it at home. This made Luke and Selina’s rescue mission a lot easier.

So, Luke and Selina calmed down and focused on eliminating the spiders nearby. One good thing about Boom Town was that it had a long, broad street that passed through more than half of the town. It was the street in front of the fast food restaurant, and led to the mayor’s shopping center.

So, Luke and Selina only needed to clear this street, and the residents within a few hundred meters down the road who came running at the sound would be able to reach them.

As for the residents who were still hiding in houses further out, there wasn’t much that Luke and Selina could do.

If they entered those complex buildings, their clean-up range would be significantly reduced, and if the lifeline that was the main street wasn’t guarded, more residents would die.

Suddenly, a police car charged over from a small side street after a hasty turn.

Luke was stunned for a moment. Was this... Deputy Sheriff Peter’s car?

There were only two police cars in town. Samantha’s was an SUV, but this was a regular vehicle, so one could tell right off the bat.

Luke immediately noticed that the car was packed.

At first glance, he saw Samantha, Peter, Ashley and Mike. There also seemed to be two other people whose faces he couldn’t see.

When that car appeared like it was on fire, giant spiders suddenly swarmed out of the side street after it. Not only did the spiders leap down the street, they also climbed and covered the walls and roofs of the buildings around them like a tide. Luke quickly ducked behind a car on the roadside and finally fully opened fire with his M4A1. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! A giant spider that had pounced on the top of the police car was sent flying, and another was blown up while it was still in the air. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three spiders that had been about to climb up the back of the police car exploded and writhed on the ground.

“Retreat and get the car!” Luke shouted.

Selina immediately started to back away.

She wasn’t as fast as Luke. If she didn’t retreat in time, she would drag Luke down here.

She ran a hundred meters, got into the car, and drove it away from the curb.

Luke began to pull back as well.

But unlike Selina’s mad dash back, he faced the flood of spiders as he retreated backward.

His M4A1 also fired nonstop, the triple bursts almost sounding like one, as the spiders that were chasing the police car were hit and fell one after another.

At that point, the police car had reached him and was starting to slow down. The window rolled down to reveal Samantha’s anxious face.

Without looking at them, Luke shouted, “Don’t stop! Head for the shopping center now!”

In the meantime, he switched to a one-handed grip on the M4A1 and drew out his Glock with his left hand.

The police car paused for a moment, as if they were hesitating. But then, they saw Luke run backward, so fast that he was already ahead of the car.

Peter, who was driving, mumbled, “Holy sh*t! Did this guy specially practice running backward?”

Samantha had already come back to herself. Looking at Luke’s car up ahead, she said, “Speed up! He’s covering us. His partner has already driven the car over and is waiting for him.”

Peter hurriedly sped up, and the car rushed to the shopping center.The overwhelming tide of spiders consumed all the Glock’s bullets. Luke put the gun back into his holster and reloaded his M4A1 as he kept running.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Killing the closest three giant spiders to him, Luke got into the passenger seat after Selina opened the door for him.

At the same time, Selina sped up and followed closely behind the police car.

Luke put the M4A1 in a box nearby and quickly reloaded his Glock. Rolling down the car window, he raised his hand and aimed.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Two spiders exploded in a burst of disgusting fluid and struggled on the ground.

At this point, even Luke couldn’t kill each spider with one shot anymore.
