In the current situation, of course, Locke knew what was going on, and he considered leaving directly with Ashley, but considering Ashley's mother and younger brother, he decided to stay.

After all, Locke was not completely cold-blooded, and he was sure in his heart, so he chose to stay and help.

Things seem to be getting worse, Locke takes Mike to find a few spider feet, but these alone still can't call for backup, Samantha herself is the sheriff of the town, as for the FBI, if things are not 100% sure, they can't send someone.

These agencies receive a lot of alerts about alien invasions every day, and if they check them all, they won't be able to finish watching them.

On this day, Locke and Samantha talked for a while, and finally said that she should make some preparations and go to the gun shop to buy a batch of equipment, which was paid for by Locke.

Except for the two sheriffs' pistols that are Glock, the other things such as rifles and shotguns are all antiques, and many of them are single-shot tethered, so it is completely impossible to deal with swarms of spiders with these alone.

After all, the funds are insufficient, and there are only two sheriffs in the entire police station in the town, Samantha and Pete, which is the norm in many remote towns in the United States.

Locke helped buy two M4A1s, plus a Remington shotgun, and a large amount of ammunition, even if he donated them to the police department, for Samantha to use.

Obviously, Locke is a rich man, which makes Samantha even more worried about her daughter, although Ashley is young and beautiful and proud, but men become bad when they are rich, who knows what it will be like in the future.

Of course, Locke himself is prepared, buy equipment and take it with him, and there is a lot of equipment in the storage space.

After buying their equipment, the group returned to the town and soon noticed a large number of townspeople gathered.

Without waiting for Locke to ask, Samantha explained, "They're going to the town convention, and Wade is going to talk about his bullshit, that damn vampire, who's been agitating for everyone to sell their houses and land lately. ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Locke didn't say much, he guessed that the mayor probably knew that there might be new veins in some of the mines, so he prepared in advance to make a fortune.

Early the next morning, a man named Chris comes to see Samantha, who is Samantha's childhood sweetheart, and Locke takes the opportunity to tell him about the possibility of the mine becoming a giant spider's nest.

But obviously, Chris didn't believe this until he actually saw it with his own eyes, and now that they are re-exploring, some of the tunnels have high concentrations of gas that can explode if they are not careful.

According to the plot, new gold mines can be found in the mines, just over the side of the mine with high gas concentrations, but he has no interest in mixing these, mining is time-consuming and laborious, and with this effort, Locke can make more money in the stock market.

Locke is not worried about his safety, even if he is surrounded by giant spiders, he is confident to get out, but if he wants to solve the problem, he still needs to report for help after getting evidence.

However, before that, no one even the townspeople believed in the existence of giant spiders, so Locke and Ashley could only sort out their guns and load all the magazines at Samantha's house.

Locke also specially prepared some tear gas and irritating sprays, spiders have very keen senses, and these tear gas canisters can better stop them.

Gradually, as the sun sets, Locke also senses danger, and most of the spiders have a photophobic habit, so they like to go out to hunt at night.

At this time, Samantha ran back with Chris: "Locke, something happened. Gladys was captured by a spider. ”

Gladys is Chris's aunt, and the news was told to Samantha by Chris.

"I think it's not just her, in order to reproduce, these spiders will definitely continue to hunt on a large scale, and the whole town will be attacked, and you try to inform everyone to gather in a safer place."

"What safe place?"

"It's easy to close the entrance and exit, and in a building made of reinforced concrete, ordinary wooden houses can't stop these giant spiders."

Samantha quickly thought of the mayor's new shopping center: "No problem, I'll give you a notice." ”

"Bring gear and weapons." Locke reminded and handed her body armor and MA41, as well as prepared bullets and a tactical backpack.

"You're going to war?!"

"It's to protect yourself." Locke said and ran back to find Ashley and asked her and Mike to put on all kinds of equipment, as for the weapons, they wouldn't use them yet.

There are only two sheriffs in the town, and there has been a lot of panic lately, so Samantha packs up and sets off with Chris, while Rock takes Ashley and Mike straight to the mall.

With his keen ear, Locke noticed unusual movements in many parts of the town, screaming, barking dogs, and scattered gunshots.

At this time, Locke called one of the Dallas police department chiefs and told him about the situation.

If you simply call the FBI and say that there is a giant spider, it is likely to be regarded as a prank, but fortunately, Locke is also related, saying that as long as the police are called, he is willing to donate $1 million.

Under his dollar offensive, the head of the bureau finally decided to take the risk and contacted the support staff.

At this time, Samantha also started the broadcast: "Attention everyone, I am Sheriff Samantha, and now there is an urgent notice, a large number of giant spiders have appeared in the town, and they are actively attacking the crowd.

If you have a sturdy and sealed building at home, please take shelter and wait for rescue, and others must bring weapons and ammunition that they can carry, and go to the newly renovated shopping mall immediately, without stopping on the way......"

Before he knew it, it was already dark, and Locke drove Ashley and Mike all the way to the vicinity of the mall's entrance.

The repetition of the radio can be heard, but whether these townspeople will take it seriously after hearing it is another matter, but fortunately, Samantha has some prestige, and there are still many townspeople who will be suspicious and do what the radio says.

As night falls, giant spiders begin to appear on a large scale, and Locke also finds spiders near the mall, and he shoots steadily, which is the first time he has officially used a firearm except for meditation battles.

With Locke's physical fitness, the recoil has no effect, he presses the gun steadily, as long as there is a spider showing his head, he pulls the trigger, and the spiders within 100 meters are named one by one, and the mastery of firearms that has reached the advanced level makes him almost 100 shots.

Suddenly, a police car rushed towards him, and Locke found several people sitting inside, Samantha and Deputy Sheriff Pete were sitting in the front row, and they were followed by no longer sporadic giant spiders, they were almost connected.

Not only do these spiders bounce along the streets, but they can also be seen on the walls and roofs of the buildings on both sides.

"You're a shopping mall." Locke hurriedly explained to Ashley and Mike beside him, and the M4A1 in his hand opened fire with all his might.

A giant spider on the roof of a police car was knocked out, another spider in mid-air was blown up in the air, and the spiders chasing behind the police car kept falling.

In a short period of time, Locke continued to fire, draining almost three magazines, covering Samantha and others who ran down from the police car into the shopping center.

The mall is made of reinforced concrete and has iron roller shutters compared to the usual wooden houses, making it much stronger than the homes of the townspeople and the only safe shelter in the town.
