Bang! Chen Xu had never let go of the gun in his hand. The sight of a Green-skinned Monster standing behind him gave him a terrible fright, and he raised his hand and fired.
A burst of green blood exploded from the monster's forehead.
Bang bang bang bang...
He kept pulling the trigger, not stopping until every bullet in the gun had been emptied and it was reduced to the soft clicks of the firing pin striking empty chambers.
"Whew... whew... whew..."
His chest heaved violently as he looked at the creature lying on the ground, its head nearly deformed, pale green fluid gurgling from its wounds. It was clearly dead beyond any doubt.
