"Find a good vantage point for firing, aim for its thigh!"

When a thick, dark leg appeared on the tempered glass of the research institute, Zhang Manqian felt the memories in her mind instantly resurface.

That was a scene she had seen before; Zhang Manqian had only caught a glimpse of it and hadn't seen the whole picture.

She had many similar hallucinations, each with its own unique events, in which she was sometimes present and sometimes absent. However, Zhang Manqian discovered that many of these predictions were directly related to Zhang Xuezhou.

From the initial chaos to the Zhao Tianhua rampage incident, the hallucinations no longer seemed to present useless images, but rather a possibility of breaking the deadlock.

Zhang Manqian drew her spare pistol from behind her back, then looked at Luo Burang, who quickly nodded in agreement.

The research institute they were allowed to visit was under extremely high security. It quickly locked onto the suspects with bright lights, and gunshots rang out, causing the spider-faced creatures to scatter in all directions.

Zhang Manqian didn't place too much hope on the research institute's security forces. Apart from the initial two seconds of intense light when a bullet hit the spider and dented part of its body, the guards' subsequent shooting was extremely ineffective, and in a head-on confrontation, it was difficult for anyone to keep up with the spider's speed.

"Song 727's spiral bullets are best used to continuously strike the same spot. Minimize mistakes while firing, and let's coordinate as much as possible!"

Luo Burang left behind the two chief researchers who were accompanying him. As he began to stride away, he turned back to Zhang Manqian and gave her a final instruction.

Song Bu'er had studied firearms for many years, and Song Xianzhong joined the research team after entering the Seventh Sequence, even using himself as a test subject, thus improving the bullets.

Song Bu'er sought a weapon for hunting in Qinmeng that was durable, lightweight, and capable of multiple shots, while Song Xianzhong had only one requirement: a weapon that could break through the resistance of ferocious beasts.

This ultimately led to the guns that Zhang Manqian and others carried.

The appearance of the sidearm is basically the same as that of a regular firearm; the biggest difference lies in the eight spiral bullets inside the weapon.

"I will try my best to minimize mistakes and strive for better shooting coordination!"

Zhang Manqian pursed her lips and agreed.

Top-tier shooters are rare. Zhang Xuezhou has firmly established himself as the top shooter, Ren Anran has also shown her talent, and Zhang Manqian is no slouch either.

Many people have occupied almost half of the sharpshooter world by relying on their Realm Technique and spiritual abilities; their early advantage in cultivation makes their position difficult to shake.

However, Luo Burang was an exception. The precision of the opponent's experiment was ridiculously high, and his mental strength was only inferior to a few people. After quickly catching up with the Realm Technique, Luo Burang's shooting ability quickly reached the top level. The fact that his physical reaction was not as good as Zhang Manqian's was solved by the opponent through anticipation and other means.

In several tests, Zhang Manqian's marksmanship was inferior to Luo's.

She really had nothing to say at that point, so she could only quickly agree, indicating that she would cherish the bullets.

"Blanpeda can even encounter a ferocious beast that has taken human form?! What kind of situation is this?!"

Luo Burang muttered something under his breath and quickly climbed the stairs, running upwards.

Ferocious beasts that can transform into human form are rare, which means that they could potentially infiltrate human society and cause unimaginable damage.

If such a ferocious beast could appear in Blanpeda, it's not impossible for it to appear in Western Capital City as well.

Luo Burang also felt a bit regretful. If the destination were Qin Meng, he would have brought a high-powered heavy firearm and a box of special bullets. He wouldn't have needed to be so stingy with every shot he took.

Rushing into the skylight on the top floor of the research institute, Luo Burang stopped his self-reflection and quickly entered a state of full concentration for battle.

Zhang Manqian was located at another skylight 15 meters away from him, and the two formed an intersecting firing position.

With a sweep of his gaze, the human-faced spider flashed before his eyes and disappeared from sight.

The sounds of searchlights exploding and sparks flying intermittently in the air, clearly indicating that the ferocious beast was rapidly destroying these high-intensity lighting devices as it chased Zhang Xuezhou and the others.

"Twelve!"

Luo Burang called out, and when Zhang Manqian responded, he quickly raised his sidearm, mentally starting a countdown.

"There are sixteen searchlights in total, and nine have already been destroyed. Luo left two for me to get used to the beast's speed and movement patterns. If it destroys a third, I'll have to fire. If the beast is fixated on destroying all the searchlights, we'll have five chances to strike. If it's not that stupid, the chances will be even fewer!"

Zhang Manqian felt a great tension in her heart, and her mind was also on high alert, working at high speed.

Zhang Manqian was quite aware of Zhang Xuezhou's abilities. Zhang Xuezhou was extremely skilled; few could keep up with the speed of the Spider-Man. He could keep the Spider-Man from catching him. However, Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou's weakness lay in his lack of offensive capabilities; he either needed to rely on firearms or could only rely on their cooperation.

"Bang!"

The warning searchlights were blasted off again, and the lights in the outer courtyard of the research institute dimmed even further. The light that had been so intense at the beginning, like the midday sun, was now like the setting sun.

Once these special searchlights are turned off, only some ground lights and indoor lighting from the research institute building will remain, and the darkness may become the domain of the human-faced spiders.

I must see this clearly!

With her eyes wide open, Zhang Manqian continuously released her Law Power, trying to lock down the fast-moving human-faced spider, especially at the moment it destroyed the searchlight.

"It failed!"

The spider's high-speed movement effectively evaded the lock-on; Zhang Manqian only felt a blur before her eyes, and the target locked by her Law Power had already been lost.

Even if it freezes for just one second, that would be enough!

The opportunity with the tenth lamp was missed, and the sound of the eleventh lamp shattering came again.

"It's over!"

Zhang Manqian's heart sank. She had tried her best, but she had failed to seize the opportunity twice in a row.

Unable to lock onto the target's body and unable to control the timing of shooting at a moving target, Zhang Manqian couldn't help but feel somewhat bitter. She could only observe Luo Burang's situation and try to estimate based on Luo Burang's firing.

"Twelve is here!"

While Zhang Manqian was still making some plans in her mind, she heard Zhang Xuezhou shout from afar, and he, who had been fleeing ahead, stood on top of the searchlight.

"Zodiac, save me!"

When Zhang Xuezhou shouted, Huang Daoxian cursed him, but his body honestly responded by assisting.

I beg you, please let me go!

Huang Daoxian had an extremely strong jumping ability, and he could easily use the high wall to run up ten floors. He wanted to leave many times, but he was always pulled back by Zhang Xuezhou's simple words.

When he was pulled back again and screamed for mercy, Huang Daoxian looked at the human-faced spider that had instantly appeared behind him, and had no choice but to form a hand seal with his claws and grab it.

A crimson claw mark flew out, piercing two holes in the human-faced spider's head and chest, causing the spider to retreat repeatedly.

"I told you I couldn't kill it. That guy's wounds are healing. Just a few dozen seconds and the injury will disappear without a trace, leaving no lasting effect, even if it pierces through the head!"

Huang Daoxian shouted.

He really didn't want to do something futile. On one hand, he had to risk his life to unleash his ultimate move, and on the other hand, he could just endure the pain and it would pass. Huang Daoxian felt that he couldn't do something so foolish.

"Please, please stop torturing me!"

He had previously been struggling to survive under Zhang Xuezhou's control, and even in this life-or-death situation, he didn't care about losing face, repeatedly pleading with Zhang.

Huang Daoxian felt that everything was negotiable as long as Zhang Xuezhou let him leave and he could get rid of this damned Spider God guard.
