Chapter 509: Chapter 510: Whatâs there to fear from danger! Chapter 509: Chapter 510: Whatâs there to fear from danger! A loud noise, coming from an unknown source, sounded as if something had shattered.
The sound was so loud and the vibration so strong that even the room they were in trembled noticeably.
Everyone was startled to varying degrees.
The Alien Humanoids that had been lingering outside also seemed to be quite frightened by the noise, and many had already left, presumably to investigate what had happened.
Nobody knew what to make of the quaking that resembled an earthquake just now.
However, Su Shu had an epiphany in that instant.
In a very short amount of time, she fixed her gaze on a particular spot within the laboratory, the same spot where she and Tang Zelin had been conversing moments before.
Behind them, the large crates were likely filled with experimental items.
If items were being stored, it wasnât impossible for some special weapons to be amongst them.
Tang Zelin had already gone up front to keep the situation under control while she crouched down and fiddled with her system watch.
Once she confirmed that she could directly retrieve items from the storage via the system, she pretended to rummage for something in the back.
Occasionally, she lifted one lid after another.
From afar, Tang Zelin kept an eye on the outside situation with the Alien Humanoids, while also glancing over at Su Shuâs position from time to time.
After their previous conversation, he had a rough idea of what she was trying to find.
But he wasnât confident about discovering anything in this half-office, half-lab room that could counteract their adversaries.
Yet, not long afterward, Su Shu suddenly exclaimed, âTang Zelin, come quick!â
He felt a twinge at his temple, surprised to think she might have really found something.
When he rushed over and saw over a dozen specialized weapons inside one of the large crates at the bottom, the shock on his face was so distinct that Su Shu would remember it clearly for a long time.
He reached in and pulled out one to inspect in his hands.
The model indeed looked different from their usual weapons, resembling conventional firearms, but the differences were apparent in the details.
They must be special weapons designed to suppress the Alien Humanoids, he thought.
However, weapons without ammunition would be no more than toys.
He asked, âAre there bullets?â
Su Shu casually lifted the lid of the crate beside her, âYes, theyâre all here.â
Tang Zelin glanced over and remarked with a sigh, âI didnât expect to find them here, it seems fortune hasnât abandoned us.â
âI feel the same way.â
Subsequently, Tang Zelin gathered all his subordinates, asking each to come and take a weapon; bullets were distributed per person.
Peng San, an elder, also stepped forward and said in a deep voice, âAre there more? Give an old man one.â
âItâs dangerous, San-ye,â someone cautioned.
âNonsense. If it werenât dangerous, why would I be asking for a weapon? Come on, if thereâs any left, give me one too. Did you think Iâve gotten too old to be useful?â
âHow could that be? Iâm just worried youâll get hurt.â
âSo what if I get hurt? All my old comrades died on the battlefield, a couple of injuries are nothing to me,â he retorted as he stepped forward and grabbed a weapon.
Seeing this, Tang Zelin took out some bullets from another crate, âSan-ye, please be careful.â
Peng San nodded, took the ammunition, tinkererd with the weapon in his hand, and figured out how to use it.
With that done, aside from the six children, every adult had a weapon in hand, and bulletsâto ensure the possibility of a breakoutâwere not completely taken.
Ensuring they were as well-armed as possible, Tang Zelin stood by the door, observing the situation outside.
