As soon as the group stepped out of the rocks, they saw flashes of gunfire in the forest.
Behind a few trees just tens of meters away, four men were exchanging fire with sheriffs on the other side of the forest.
One of the four men was carrying a machine gun and was firing at the other side, forcing them to keep their heads down.
The other three also stood ready, submachine guns in hand.
One of them was being protected by three others. He was wearing dark black velvet pajamas, his temples were slightly gray, he had a very handsome face, and a gentle and refined demeanor.
It was Gao Tianlin.
Just then, a muffled groan came from the other side.
The tall, burly man holding the machine gun grinned maliciously: "Dare to stop your grandpa? You're asking for death!"
Meanwhile, Gao Tianlin, who was being protected in the center, kept an eye on the exit of the passage behind them. The moment he saw movement on the rocks, he calmly said, "Someone is coming out of the secret passage! Fire!"
Upon hearing this, the man with the machine gun immediately turned the gun around, intending to indiscriminately fire.
However, a gunshot rang out, and a bloody hole appeared between the man's eyebrows.
The man fell backward, and machine gun bullets sprayed into the sky.
The other three stared wide-eyed, not expecting the opponent's attack to be so precise.
Just as Lu Ning was shooting at the other three, one of the men holding a submachine gun let out a low shout, and long black hair grew from his body, transforming him into a black ape that was over two and a half meters tall.
The black ape used both hands to cover his vital points and shielded Gao Tianlin with his body.
A splash of blood splattered from the black ape's arm, but it did not cause serious injury.
The black ape roared, covered its eyes with its left arm, swung its arms, and charged towards Lu Ning and the other three.
"A beast-transformed awakener? Good timing!" Wei Xuan shouted, using his petrification ability to step forward and meet the attack.
Qiu Yuelin also activated her immense strength ability, looked around, then picked up a basketball-sized rock from the side and threw it at the black ape.
The black ape let out a low growl and flicked its right hand, sending the rock flying. At that moment, Wei Xuan had already approached the black ape.
His petrified fist slammed into the black ape's abdomen, but because Wei Xuan had not yet mastered the Soul-Shaking Fist, there was no white light on his fist.
The black ape reached out its left hand and grabbed at Wei Xuan's fist.
Just as he lowered his arm, a gunshot rang out, and a burst of blood splattered from the black ape's left eye.
He let out a painful howl and involuntarily covered his eyes with his hands.
Wei Xuan's fist landed smoothly on the black ape's abdomen.
With a muffled thud, the black ape staggered back several steps, its painful cries growing louder.
