The moment the monsters appeared, Brenda immediately shut up and buried her head in her mother's arms, as meek as a quail.
Luke was lost for words. So, the only thing you dare to do is yell at your companions?
Fine, if Brenda had yelled in front of the monsters, she might not have been able to survive until now.
Those monsters didn't seem to be in a good mood.
The two monsters looked at the four women suspiciously for a moment and roared at each other, as if they were communicating, before they turned around and returned to the passage.
After the monsters left for a few minutes, Selina said in a low voice, "I need to pee. Asel, can you tell Brenda to stop yelling? I don't want to be eaten by them when I pee. "
Hearing that, Brenda buried her head even lower. She wasn't ashamed of her yelling just now, but she was scared of the monsters.
Asel was actually just as distracted. The only thing that was better than her daughter's was that she didn't yell.
This time, Selina's movements were finally not interrupted. She slowly crept over.
Luke's heart was pounding.
It wasn't that he wasn't confident in himself; he wasn't confident in the neurotic Brenda. Who knew if she would suddenly yell again?
But it seemed that her yelling had attracted the monsters, and Brenda realized something and didn't say anything else.
Selina crept her way to the passage just like that.
Luke didn't waste any time with her. He covered her mouth and whispered in her ear, "It's me."
Selina rolled her eyes.
She knew it was her the moment Luke pulled her into his arms.
"Don't make a sound. Follow me." Saying that, Luke put her on his back and quickly moved out of the cave.
They didn't have much time.
Brenda, this ticking time bomb, might scream again. Luke had to get Selina out of the cave as soon as possible.
Once they were outside, Luke had a hundred ways to teach the monsters how to behave.
If he couldn't teach them, the FBI agents who arrived later would.
If they couldn't, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the military wouldn't mind teaching them until the monsters submitted.
Thanks to Luke's brute strength, the two of them retreated even faster than they had come.
Luke had tried his best to avoid being discovered when he entered, but now, he had to get out quickly without causing too much noise.
Rather than worrying about being heard by the monster, it was more practical to worry about when the neurotic Brenda would scream again.
At that moment, Luke vaguely heard Brenda's voice. "Hey, are you alright?"
Luke and Selina were lost for words. But who knew if they would be okay now?
He sped up again, and they finally retreated to the small cave they had come from.
Pushing Selina toward the passage, he said in a low voice, "Let's get out." Luke had already drawn his gun and knife, and was aiming at the entrance of the tunnel.
Selina didn't hug him and shout, "I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving! If we're leaving, let's leave together!" like those annoying female leads in movies and TV shows. Instead, she silently climbed up.
She knew that she would be Luke's greatest burden if she didn't get out.
Selina was still weak under the influence of the anesthetic, and it hurt when she scraped against the walls, but she gritted her teeth and crawled forward without a sound.
Luke's face was calm, and his heart, which had been racing violently just now, gradually calmed down.
About two minutes later, Selina finally crawled out of the narrow tunnel that was more than ten meters wide. She called out in a low voice from above, "Alright, come out quickly."
Luke sheathed the knife and crawled into the cave. He grabbed a protrusion in the wall with his free left hand and pulled himself up bit by bit.
His eyes, however, were fixed on the entrance of the cave and the Beretta in his right hand.
Suddenly, a few roars came from the cave, followed by a series of hurried noises.
Luke's expression didn't change as he kept moving upward.
But his left hand had been shot earlier, and he couldn't exert any strength, so he was much slower.
Suddenly, there was a roar right next to him, and a hideous monster's head crawled into the cave and crawled toward him on all fours.
The monster was well-adapted to the cave environment, and could move much faster than Luke could with only one hand.
With a cold smile, Luke pulled the trigger of the Beretta. Bang!
Bang!
Double shot! The headshot didn't work!
Two bullets hit the monster's body, causing two blooms of blood to burst out. However, its head managed to dodge the bullets by accident.
It opened its mouth and roared, as if stimulated by the pain, and charged upward at a faster speed.
But that was as far as it could go.
Bang!
Double headshot.
This time, it didn't dodge. One of the bullets pierced through its head, and the other went into its roaring mouth.
The closer he got, the more accurate Luke's shooting became!
He wasn't scared of such beasts at all. As long as he still had bullets, and the bullets could blow up the enemy's head, he was invincible in this passage where there was no room for him to dodge.
The only downside was that his ears were ringing.
He felt like his eardrums were going to explode when he fired in such an enclosed environment.
Suddenly, Selina shouted from above, "Grab the rope!"
Luke shook his ringing head, and felt something like a pole fall on his head.
He grabbed it and immediately realized what it was.
It was the spear gun.
Selina threw down the pole of the crossbow and pulled the other end of the bolt. Feeling the taut rope, she began to pull it out forcefully.
With this extra help, Luke had an easier time.
All he needed to do was press his legs against the wall, and he would be able to rise quickly.
Selina was still under the effects of the anesthetic, and she couldn't use much strength.
However, she was smart enough to wrap the rope around her body and step back. She used her body weight to pull the rope outward, which didn't require too much strength.
At that moment, the monster that had just been killed was suddenly dragged out, and another monster dashed in.
Luke spread his legs and temporarily stopped what he was doing.
Two seconds later, the second monster squeezed two meters into the passage. Bang!
Bang!
This monster wasn't as lucky as the first one, and was directly shot in the head.
It wasn't until the second monster was pulled out that the dizzy Luke was dragged out of the passage.
Shaking his head, Luke switched the Beretta to his left hand and gave it to Selina.
Then, he gave her the last magazine of the Beretta and drew out the M1911. "Your shoes are on the right side of the passage. Put them on. We're going to the lake."
