130: Chapter 130 Frenzied Harvesting

A vast amount of knowledge, theory, and practical experience regarding Firearms Shooting flooded into his mind.

Pistols, rifles, machine guns, sniper rifles...

It wasn't just about shooting speed and accuracy; it also included the basic structure, disassembly, assembly, and operational techniques of firearms. At this moment, all of it had become incredibly familiar; these were the fundamentals.

Picking up two pistols at random, an incredibly familiar feeling filled his heart. Chu Xuan felt as if he had become a special operations gun king who had undergone countless baptisms of blood and fire. His mastery and application of various firearms had reached a state of sublime perfection.

His left and right hands each gripped a pistol slide.

With a twist of his wrists, the two pistols flipped over and were held firmly in his hands. Accompanied by a "clack-clack" sound, he had simultaneously chambered the rounds.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!!

Without the slightest interval, in just a few breaths, all sixteen bullets were fired. The five scattered Specters that had reached about twenty meters away were all shot in the forehead.

One smooth motion!

Chu Xuan concentrated and observed.

At the bottom of the slope, a Specter that had only been hit by one bullet swayed its body and continued to charge upward, though its speed was noticeably slower.

One that took two bullets to the head fell to the ground, then scrambled back up. Its body was crooked as it roared and wobbled forward at a speed nearly ten times slower than before.

Those hit by three or four bullets were unable to stand, but they still used their hands to crawl upward.

Only the last one, which had taken six consecutive bullets to the forehead, had its head explode. It died on the spot, providing Chu Xuan with 12 spirituality value.

[Current spirituality value: 475]

Immediately after, Chu Xuan threw away the pistols and picked up a submachine gun again.

When Chu Xuan pulled the trigger now, it was no longer the wild firing from before. With a few bursts, he controlled the number of bullets with extreme precision, killing all four remaining Specters and gaining another 45 spirituality value.

[Current spirituality value: 520]

These Specters really had tenacious vitality. Even with headshots, it took five to six bullets to kill them.

From the moment Chu Xuan started firing until these six Specters that rushed up one after another were all killed, less than twenty seconds had passed.

This was even after Chu Xuan had waited a while to test the power of the bullets; otherwise, it would have been even faster.

Such a simple and violent method left Tang Zheng and Qin Shaowu dumbfounded. Especially Chu Xuan's action of dual-wielding and chambering both guns simultaneously was truly both flashy and practical.

"Brother Xuan, when did you learn this? Headshots every time, that's pretty fierce. I feel like you must be using a cheat!" Qin Shaowu said with a face full of admiration.

"This is easier than when I use my talent to kill. So easy!" Tang Zheng said with an envious expression.

It was indeed very easy. The most critical part was that it reduced his own risk to the minimum. Chu Xuan looked at the large group of Specters gathering like a tide in the temple and smiled indifferently:

"Get ready. Let's start a killing spree here and make a fortune!"

As the saying goes, benefits should be shared and not monopolized. Since Qin Shaowu and Tang Zheng helped this time, Chu Xuan naturally wouldn't take all the rewards for himself.

Besides, there were so many monsters here that Chu Xuan couldn't finish them all alone. It was fine to let them have a share.

Next, Chu Xuan spent 150 spirituality value to exchange for 15 skill points, replenishing the skill points he had just consumed to upgrade Firearms Shooting back to 20.

[Current spirituality value: 370]

Seeing that the Specters below had reached the thirty-meter range, Chu Xuan gave the order and was the first to pull the trigger. Qin Shaowu and Tang Zheng also each picked up a submachine gun and opened fire on the area below.

Like harvesting wheat, the Specters below fell one after another. At this time, Chu Xuan was no longer seeking to kill the Specters instantly, but was instead focused on making the Specters charging up from below lose their mobility.

"Try to hit the heads or legs. Focus on knocking them down; we'll go back and finish them off later!" Chu Xuan shouted without looking back.

The two of them responded in agreement.

Chu Xuan fired in short bursts, hitting heads every time. Basically, three bullets would knock down one Specter.

And those Specters were truly fearless. As soon as the ones in front fell, the ones behind would surge forward, trampling over the bodies.

But it was completely useless. Under the torrential pour of bullets, they all lost their combat effectiveness. There were a few thick-skinned ones, but even they fell after ten bullets at most.

Tang Zheng and Qin Shaowu needed to delay for a few seconds to change magazines after finishing a drum, while Chu Xuan was always calculating the number of bullets.

When there was one bullet left, Chu Xuan would quickly swap in a new magazine, thus saving the time needed to rack the bolt.

Under the suppression of fire rate and precision, the Specters below were consistently kept beyond twenty meters.

Even if there were a few who could teleport, they would at most break through five or six meters before being shot down in an instant.

During this time, there was a big fellow who actually teleported ten meters across. The moment it appeared, it roared and charged up. At that time, Tang Zheng was changing magazines, and Qin Shaowu's bullets were also spent.

But Chu Xuan's bullets streaked over almost simultaneously. With controlled recoil and continuous fire, after about thirty bullets, its head was completely shredded.

As Chu Xuan expected, this was indeed a C-rank Ghost, and it provided 42 spirituality value, which was quite considerable.

The crowd hiding in the mud courtyard saw that the many terrifying monsters couldn't charge up at all, and they couldn't help but get excited.

"So that young man isn't a bad person; he's saving us!" A family of three among them couldn't help but hug each other and weep.

"We misunderstood him before." Liu Dahai tremblingly lit a cigarette and said shakily, "If I can get out of here, I'm willing to give him a hundred million... no, I want to give him half of all my assets!"

"But... that leader just killed a lot of people. Have you forgotten when we first got off the bus? The ones he killed seemed to be from the authorities..." a young man whispered.

Slap!

Liu Dahai directly slapped him and cursed, "You son of a bitch! If you want to die, jump down yourself and feed the monsters. Don't ruin it for the rest of us!"

"If you say that, what if they stop looking after us?"

The others also glared at the young man and condemned him one after another: "Those who lured us to this ghostly place are the bad ones who want to kill us. Shouldn't they be killed? Those 'authorities' who were killed definitely weren't good people either, and they only claimed to be official; it might not even be true..."

"I don't care who he killed. I only know he saved my family of three. I'd even kneel down and kowtow to him." The middle-aged man from the family of three said solemnly, "When I get back, I'm going to set up a Longevity Tablet for him..."

"Maybe we should go help them..."

"Alright, stop arguing. Everyone stay quiet and just wait here. Don't cause any more trouble for them!"

Liu Dahai shouted to stop the crowd's discussion, then gave the young man one last fierce glare and threatened, "Don't talk nonsense again, or everyone will throw you out right now and let those monsters eat you."

The young man pleaded for mercy with a miserable face and slapped himself twice. "I was just talking, I really didn't mean anything else. It's my fault, I have a big mouth!!"

While these people were talking, more than half of the Specters charging up from below had already fallen.

Even though Chu Xuan wasn't striving for instant kills, the System was still constantly popping up kill notifications. His spirituality value continued to rise, soon breaking through the 500 mark again.
