Chapter 173 The Power of the Sniper
The moment Han Shuo came out, he slammed the door shut behind him, followed by a dull thud from inside.
"Thump!"
The half-corpse was banging on the door, but it only made one impact.
The next second, the door trembled, and the crack opened a little more, and Han Shuo felt someone pulling the door from inside.
"Damn it, it really does open the door!"
Not daring to relax for a moment, Han Shuo used all his strength to hold the door shut.
At this moment, Fatty and Xiao Zhao also noticed something was wrong.
Without prior arrangement, the two casually placed Li Shurou and Wai Di on the ground. Then, the fat man turned around and ran to Han Shuo's side, where he and Han Shuo stood firmly against the door.
With their combined strength, the two finally managed to close the gap in the door again.
As for Xiao Zhao, he only glanced back once, then his eyes were filled with determination as he ran straight into the distance.
He always carried a box in his hand, a box that Xiao Zhao never let go of, even when he was knocked down by the half-corpse.
Because the box contained his most important weapon.
A sniper rifle!
If a sniper can't even take good care of his most important sniper rifle, can he still be called a sniper?
This gun was later given to him by Han Shuo and others.
In the underground research institute, Xiao Zhao had already used the gun many times when he readjusted the scope.
He even fired nearly a hundred bullets, just to achieve the ultimate accuracy!
This isn't obsessive-compulsive disorder; it's that he has extremely high standards for his career.
Back in the army, Xiao Zhao was the best marksman, and now, he is probably the best marksman in the entire underground research institute!
This sniper rifle is excellent, so excellent that Xiao Zhao is completely captivated by it. It is also one of the most lethal sniper rifles he has ever used.
The only downside is that the gun is too bulky, with a rather long distance from the muzzle to the grip.
Therefore, for easy carrying, it can only be disassembled and placed in a box normally, and then temporarily reassembled when needed.
...
Xiao Zhao quickly moved back a distance, then found a good position, opened the box, took out the sniper rifle, and quickly assembled it.
He firmly believed that as long as he had enough time to prepare, he could definitely take the half-dead man's life with a single shot using this sniper rifle.
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the pharmaceutical processing plant, Han Shuo was desperately bracing against the gate.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhao's voice came through the communicator in my ear.
"Brother Han, hang in there a little longer, I'm assembling a sniper rifle!"
Han Shuo was overjoyed, knowing that Xiao Zhao had a way to deal with the half-corpse people.
He heard it, and the fat man naturally heard it too. The two looked at each other and used all their strength to buy time for Xiao Zhao.
As for Li Shurou, she stood not far from the two of them and changed the magazine on her submachine gun.
She kept her gun at the ready, prepared for any unexpected situations. If the half-dead men rushed out from inside, she could shoot them back in time.
Since Wai Di neither knows how to use a gun nor is a genetically engineered human, he can only stand there anxiously.
After all, he can't speak fluently yet; he's still developing...
In the distance, Xiao Zhao moved with remarkable speed, piecing together the parts in the box one by one.
In no time, a sniper rifle was assembled, and then he reached into his pocket and pulled out an armor-piercing round.
Loading and chambering! The two actions were completed in one smooth motion.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Zhao lay down on the ground and stared intently at the direction of the gate through the scope.
"Brother Han, Brother Pang! I'm ready. Listen to my command. The moment I shout 'Open the door,' you two let go at the same time!"
When Xiao Zhao's voice came through, Han Shuo was overjoyed.
Because of his injury, and because he had been leaning against the door for so long, his left hand was starting to feel weak.
If I could hold on for another ten seconds or so, I probably wouldn't be able to hold on much longer.
Fortunately, Xiao Zhao is finally ready.
"Okay, Fatty and I will follow your commands!"
Han Shuo quickly responded and then nodded to the fat man. They both had great faith in Xiao Zhao's marksmanship.
After the sound faded, Xiao Zhao in the distance began the countdown.
"3, 2, 1, open the door!"
The moment the words "open the door" came through the communicator, Han Shuo and the fat man immediately let go of each other's hands.
Just then, the door was suddenly pulled open, and the half-corpse inside appeared before everyone's eyes.
And Xiao Zhao's finger instantly pulled the trigger!
"Bang!!"
After a cannon-like bang, the armor-piercing shell finally left the barrel!
Xiao Zhao aimed precisely at the half-corpse's forehead.
"Blood…………"
The half-dead man had barely uttered a single word when an armor-piercing bullet pierced his skull.
The armor-piercing rounds were extremely powerful, not only penetrating the half-corpse's skull but also creating a large, gaping hole.
The half-corpse collapsed to the ground, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving. At this moment, it was completely lifeless.
This is the power of a sniper. With Xiao Zhao's precise aim, the half-corpse was finally taken down!
"Well done!"
"Little Zhao, you're awesome!"
"Well done, Xiao Zhao!"
"babble……"
The four people near the gate were overjoyed and praised him repeatedly. Even Wai Di chimed in with his own words.
After the initial joy, the fat man ran forward and yanked the half-corpse's body out of the room.
Han Shuo then pushed the door again, closing it shut once more.
Just now, everyone noticed that not far from the gate, swarms of zombies were pouring out.
Without a doubt, the gunshots and grenade explosions in the corridor earlier had attracted these zombies.
Ordinary zombies don't pull doors, and the matter finally came to an end the moment the door closed.
"call--."
Han Shuo let out a deep breath, then collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
He stretched out his limbs, forming a large "X" shape, and looked up at the sky.
Han Shuo smiled slightly, looked at the light gray night sky, and burst into laughter.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
This time, the five of them had a truly harrowing experience, and they almost all perished here.
Fortunately, through everyone's joint efforts, despite some setbacks, we finally weathered the storm safely.
Guns, grenades, suppressants—it's fair to say that without even a little bit of these, they wouldn't have had such a successful outcome.
The last armor-piercing round fired by Xiao Zhao was particularly crucial, successfully getting everyone to safety.
...
The moment Han Shuo collapsed, Li Shurou rushed over and carefully examined his injuries.
Wai Di stayed by his side worriedly, and before long, Xiao Zhao from afar also arrived.
"How are you? Is Brother Han alright?"
With a suitcase in his left hand and a sniper rifle in his right, Xiao Zhao asked with concern.
His injuries were nothing serious, and the others were also fine, except for Han Shuo, who was the most seriously injured.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness, although there are many wounds, it shouldn't have broken any bones."
Li Shurou responded, and then the fat man next to her suddenly shouted angrily.
"Damn it! This half-human, half-corpse monster doesn't even have a single drop of fluid in its head!"
