Chapter 24
C24 – The Power of the Pulse Pistol
“We’re done for today!” Cao Rann exclaimed, his eyes clouded with defeat.
It seemed he foresaw the Base Car’s imminent destruction and their tragic end at the claws of the Zombie Wolf.
“Tan Chong.” Jiang Qiu approached Tan Chong, her gaze fixed on him.
She was aware that their fate was sealed, but the thought of dying alongside her beloved brought her a strange sense of contentment.
“Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, no one will die,” Tan Chong reassured her with a smile, then turned to Ming Dong.
Ming Dong let out a sigh, his hand caressing the broad saber. “We need to get ready for battle,” he declared with conviction.
Tan Chong gave a slight nod. “Captain Ming, open the car door. I’ll take care of the Zombie Wolf.”
He couldn’t afford to wait until the Base Car was destroyed. By then, Jiang Qiu would have nowhere to hide, and even with the Pulse Pistol in hand, he might not be able to ensure her safety.
But if they opened the door, the Zombie Wolf would surely charge in, and the Base Car could be spared.
“You can’t open the door!” Mao Zhe cried out in terror. “Tan Chong, what are you doing? Are you trying to get us killed?”
“Be quiet. If you spout one more word of nonsense, I’ll throw you out myself,” Tan Chong warned, giving Mao Zhe a chilling glare.
Under Tan Chong’s intense stare, Mao Zhe shivered, feeling a deep cold envelop him.
“Tan Chong, are you really going to open the door?” Ming Dong probed.
“Trust me,” Tan Chong urged, nodding emphatically.
With resolve, Ming Dong no longer hesitated and swung the door open.
As soon as the door opened, an eager Zombie Wolf lunged at the opening.
Ming Dong, clutching his broadsword, was ready to strike when suddenly a gunshot echoed inside the car.
Tan Chong, with the Pulse Pistol in hand, squeezed the trigger. A burst of flame erupted as the shot rang out.
The Zombie Wolf, barely having stuck its head through, had its head blown to pieces, collapsing into a headless heap outside the car.
“You’re incredible!”
Ming Dong was utterly astonished; he had never before encountered such a fearsome weapon. A single loud explosion had taken down a Zombie Wolf, a creature on par with a Level 1 Evolver.
“Captain Ming, please step aside.”
Tan Chong could eliminate a Zombie Wolf with a single shot, which brought him a sense of relief. He confidently made his way toward the Base Car door.
Without a second thought, Ming Dong moved aside. With Tan Chong wielding such a formidable weapon, dispatching zombies was a breeze. There was no need for Ming Dong to intervene.
The remaining Zombie Wolves outside became enraged upon seeing their fallen comrades. They recklessly slammed into the car door.
This time, two Zombie Wolves charged at once.
Tan Chong fired twice. One bullet struck a Zombie Wolf in the neck, decapitating it. The other bullet tore a bowl-sized hole in the chest of the second Zombie Wolf, killing it instantly.
In an instant, three Zombie Wolves lay dead.
Yet, the Zombie Wolves showed no fear. The more of them that died, the more furious the rest became.
All the Zombie Wolves snarled and relentlessly attacked the car door.
Gunshots pierced the stillness of the night, each one claiming the life of another Zombie Wolf.
Tan Chong lost count of how many rounds he had fired, but soon the ground outside the car was strewn with a mound of Zombie Wolf corpses. Meanwhile, seven or eight beams of light in various hues shone brilliantly.
”He’s incredibly powerful!” Ming Dong exclaimed, his voice filled with awe.
Tan Chong was already formidable, but this terrifying weapon elevated his prowess beyond that of a Level 2 Evolver.
“Tan Chong, you’re amazing!” Cao Rann couldn’t contain his excitement, practically dancing with joy. He greatly admired Tan Chong.
He had feared the worst for them today, but Tan Chong’s introduction of an unusual weapon had dramatically turned the tables. Now, the Zombie Wolves were the ones being hunted.
