Selina searched the police cars and exclaimed in disappointment. “Damn it. There are only two shotguns in here.”
Shotguns actually weren’t bad. They were powerful and perfect for a close range fight.
However, it was inconvenient for Luke to use them with his broken arm.
Luke said calmly, “A pistol will be enough for me. Keep the shotguns for yourself. Examine those guns, and throw the loaded ones to me later.”
There had been ten players here. Luke only took two pistols and some of the magazines.
The other eight guns, plus almost a hundred bullets, could be fired directly. He didn’t even need to reload.
Selina quickly returned with the two shotguns.
She then stuffed a M1911 into Luke’s holster and a revolver into his hand, replacing the M1911 that had already been shot four times.
Luke was dazed because the revolver was heavier than he expected.
It was a Smith & Wesson M500!
He had seen the gun just now, but since it could only hold five bullets and reloading it was troublesome, he had abandoned the weapon.
It could be useful right now, however, since he didn’t need to reload. This weapon was known as a hand cannon, and could blow up enough monsters before all the bullets were used up.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
With three booming gunshots, holes opened up in the chests of two monsters. They collapsed and curled in on themselves, unable to roar anymore.
It was the first time that Luke had used such a gun. He missed on the third shot.
Then, another two monsters charged at them.
Bam! Bam!
The head of one of the two monsters was smashed open, and the other lost half its neck and shoulder. They fell immediately.
Luke tossed the M500 away and drew the M1911 again.
At that moment, the woods fell quiet. Selina found it hard to breathe. It felt like a super boss was going to show up.
Eventually, the dramatic scene didn’t happen.
No mountain-like monster emerged from the woods. Instead, something hummed in the sky several minutes later.
Selina raised her head, only to see two flashing red lights. “Helicopters?”
“Yes, we’re safe now. The FBI will clean up this mess for us,” said Luke.
Selina was at a loss. “Huh? The FBI?”
Luke explained, “I called Thomas before I went looking for you. He said that rescue helicopters would be deployed and he would inform the FBI. Go adjust the lamps on the cars to show them where we are.”
A few minutes later, two helicopters landed on the flat ground near the lake, and twelve people got out.
Eight FBI agents got out of the helicopter with the FBI logo on it.
Two of the four people from the rescue helicopter appeared to be doctors. The other two were seasoned detectives of the Major Crimes Division as well as loyal supporters of Thomas.
The FBI agents were all equipped with bulletproof vests and all kinds of weapons.
The detectives ran to Luke and Selina with their guns the moment they saw them.
Luke urged Selina to greet them while he remained vigilant as he fixed his gaze on the woods.
Selina explained the situation to the agents and detectives. Four of the agents approached the woods and examined the bodies of the monsters that Luke had killed.
A few seconds later, they turned solemn, and some of them quickly returned to the helicopter to contact their superior.
Now that the FBI agents had taken over, Luke finally walked over to the helicopter and thanked the detectives.
Once an agent was done reporting in, Luke said, “The monsters killed a bunch of people on the other side of the lake. You can check it out when reinforcements get here, but don’t do it right now. Those monsters are tricky. They’re faster and stronger than ordinary people.”
The agent nodded and said, “Okay, thank you for the reminder. We’ll be careful.”
Luke shook his head. “No, we should thank you. Right, Bobby’s from the family who was kidnapped with us, and he might still be in the car over there, if the monsters haven’t caught or killed him yet. His mother and his sister are in the monster’s lair. There’s also another woman that I didn’t recognise…”
Selina suddenly said, “That woman is probably Sarah Behrman. She’s the wife in the missing case that we were supposed to investigate in Wolfkyle.”
Luke was rather surprised. He had thought that the missing couple might’ve been victims of a hunt by the perverted players.
Selina said, “I talked to her when I was in there. She didn’t say much, but she did mention her name. Also, her appearance matches the missing wife.”
But that wasn’t too important.
She wasn’t the only victim in this case. Bob was already dead, and his son might be soon.
As they talked, the captain of the FBI agents frowned and asked, “Doctors, what are you doing?”
One of the busy doctors raised his head in confusion. “Huh?”
The captain pointed at Luke and said, “Do you not see that this officer is heavily wounded?”
The other doctor found it odd. “But these two officers have been shot, too.”
The captain sneered. “Hehe. They’re suspected of murder, and they injured Detective Luke. Don’t you think you should treat him first?” He pointed at Luke.
The doctors looked at the police officers who were handcuffed to their own cars, and left quickly.
This captain was obviously in charge. The Houston detectives that came with him didn’t say anything, which meant that they agreed with him. So, the doctors certainly had to obey.
Even before he unwrapped Luke’s arm, the doctor was already shocked. “This is a serious break. Does it not hurt?”
Luke rolled his eyes. What do you think?
It was just that he had been too busy running, fighting the monsters, and introducing the situation to the FBI agents and his fellow detectives, to cry out in pain yet.
Now that he had been reminded, he gritted his teeth and said, “Would a break like mine not hurt?”
The doctor chuckled in embarrassment and carefully removed the bandages. He was even more surprised. “You were shot in the arm, too?”
What else could Luke say? He gritted his teeth and nodded. “It’s rather obvious, isn’t it?”
Lost for words, the doctor quickly examined the wound and shook his head. “The bullet isn’t lodged inside. The best I can do is fix your broken arm with a splint and wrap it up. We’ll only be able to do a further operation in Houston. I don’t dare do any more here.”
