At that moment, the steel needle pistol seemed to become an extension of his own body, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.
Yang Shen tried rotating the steel needle pistol and was surprised to find that his mind would lock onto the target the muzzle of the steel needle pistol was pointing at.
"There are special effects like this?"
Yang Shen was secretly delighted. This way, even if he encountered a fast-moving object again, he would be able to hit it easily.
The reason I was able to kill so many mutated cats with perfect accuracy before must have been due to this special effect.
I just didn't realize it because I was so focused.
Of course, this lock-on is only for aiming; the steel needles themselves are not locked on, and if the target is fast enough, it can dodge them.
Just like that big gray cat that was suspected to be the leader, it dodged the fatal blow twice, but of course it only avoided the vital points and was still hit by the steel needle.
This also made Yang Shen realize that not only had he awakened his superpowers, but animals had also begun to evolve and mutate, or had already undergone mutation and evolution long ago.
To survive better, you must work harder to become stronger.
So he looked at experience again:
LV3:
I already have 504 experience points, while those people are still counting, but their experience points are not increasing anymore.
Yang Shen knew that this was because all the steel needles had been used to collect experience, and there were no more people to continue providing experience.
The solution is simple: just make more steel needles.
So Yang Shen stood up—
The survivors immediately started counting more carefully, counting again and again.
"After dawn, you guys deal with the corpses. If you can't finish the mutated cat meat, you can pickle it and store it. I'm going out for a bit."
As Yang Shen walked toward the large iron gate, he said, "It's best not to try anything funny. If you're happy, I'm happy, and everyone will be happy."
"No, no, please rest assured, sir." Wang Yanbin hurriedly assured him.
If it were peacetime, or if Yang Shen hadn't demonstrated overwhelming strength, perhaps they would still dare to play tricks.
But after witnessing Yang Shen fight the mutated cat horde alone, they couldn't muster any other thoughts.
Most importantly, many people here genuinely crave protection from people with superpowers; only a fool would try something funny.
Yang Shen nodded noncommittally, then pulled the large iron gate open again.
"Aww..."
An infected person who was wandering by heard the sound and suddenly howled as it approached.
Yang Shen squinted into the darkness, and when the infected person came into view, he raised his hand and fired a shot, blowing the infected person's head off.
The headless corpse of the infected was also thrown backward by inertia and fell to the ground, trembling a few times before calming down.
Yang Shen held up the large iron gate with one hand and stood there for a few minutes to make sure there were no more infected people before he went out.
Yang Shen pulled down the large iron gate and looked warily into the darkness, standing still to adjust to the pitch-black environment.
A few minutes later, he was able to see his surroundings with a little difficulty.
The number of mutated cat corpses that Yang Shen had killed on the ground had decreased significantly, with some reduced to mere remains.
It's conceivable that this was mostly done by infected individuals who wandered over after hearing the sound, or perhaps by nearby animals that dragged away the mutated cat's corpse.
Yang Shen didn't know if all the animals had mutated, or only a small portion of them.
But he knew one thing: regardless of whether all of them mutated, humanity's situation had become even more dangerous.
For example, those mutant cats will attack living people, but not infected people, perhaps because they know that the flesh of infected people is inedible.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Shen lifted his foot and walked into the darkness.
Yang Shen's strength is now vastly different from yesterday's, and he has become much bolder.
He used to avoid infected people, but this time, he deliberately walked in the direction where there were infected people.
After walking only thirty meters or so, Yang Shen saw a blue, eerie light and quickened his pace.
Soon, a light source appeared in the field of vision; it was an infected person lying dormant on the ground, and the blue light was emanating from its chest.
Perhaps sensing the presence of a living person, the infected person trembled and tried to get up.
"Bang!"
Yang Shen didn't give it a chance and shot the infected person in the head.
"Aww!"
Infected people in the distance were awakened and began to move in this direction.
Yang Shen listened intently and, analyzing the footsteps, realized that there weren't many of them, so he stood still and waited.
In just over ten seconds, the infected people came into view. Because the infected people almost all emitted blue light, they actually provided a light source for Yang Shen, making them easier to see.
So he raised his hand and fired, his mind focused on the steel needle pistol, and the muzzle could easily lock onto the target, as if he had a aiming cheat.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...
Amidst flashing red light, one infected person after another was blown off their head.
An infected person lunged down from the second-floor balcony; their ferocity and fearlessness sent chills down one's spine.
However, Yang Shen remained calm and grabbed a motorcycle without wheels next to him with his left hand, and swung it upwards with a sudden movement.
With a loud "bang," the infected person flew back and landed on the balcony, where he remained motionless.
"Am I that strong already?"
Yang Shen's face remained calm, but his blood was boiling.
That's because we are full of confidence and hope for the future.
Soon, all seven or eight infected people who had been attracted were eliminated.
Yang Shen waited a while longer to make sure no more infected people were approaching before leaving. However, before leaving, he took a metal belt off his motorcycle.
