Chapter 387 One Shot, One Kill
Not long after, the sound of hurried footsteps rushed towards the second floor.
The remaining three members of the Jiaolong Squad looked extremely terrified.
At this point, they could only execute Plan B, as they were no match for these three Shadow Demons.
Each member of the Jiaolong Squad was a true master. Whether it was their firearms or their personal strength, they were all incredibly powerful. However, facing the three Shadow Demons, they were utterly defenseless.
They had flamethrowers on their backs, rooster's blood at their waists, and peach wood swords in their hands. This meant that the Jiaolong Squad not only knew martial arts and wielded powerful firearms, but they had also learned basic talismans and Taoist magic, and had experience fighting evil sorcerers.
But this time, when facing the three Shadow Demons, they discovered that all the equipment they carried and all the Taoist magic they had previously used were rendered useless. They were of no avail against the three Shadow Demons.
The members of the Jiaolong Squad were in a state of utter panic. At this moment, only one thought remained in their minds: to ensure Administrator Wang's safe escape.
The three Shadow Demons leaped to the second floor from two directions, letting out "hehe" cold laughter as they closed in on the secret chamber in the center of the second floor.
It was evident that these three Shadow Demons possessed intelligence. They knew their target was Wang Yi, who was in the secret chamber.
The three Shadow Demons were incredibly fast. Their bodies elongated in an instant, and with a "whoosh," they leaped over the three Jiaolong Squad members, rushing rapidly towards the secret chamber.
Meng Qingxue stood at the doorway, seeing the three monsters, as black as mud, charging towards her.
For a moment, she was stunned.
Just then, a figure "swished" and lunged directly towards the Shadow Demon. It was Pang Wu.
Pang Wu's strength had reached the Grandmaster realm. As the captain of the Jiaolong Squad, he was their strongest member, his combat power nearly on par with the Four Great War Gods.
Pang Wu was extremely fast. He pursued from behind and, with a "boom," punched directly at the Shadow Demon. With one punch, the Shadow Demon's form was shattered into eight pieces, splattering onto the ground with a "pat."
However, although the Shadow Demon's body was broken into eight pieces, in the next moment, it miraculously reassembled itself. The Shadow Demon suddenly turned into a pool of mud and began to envelop Pang Wu's body.
Pang Wu furrowed his brows. At this moment, he realized that even he could not deal with these three Shadow Demons. Pang Wu once again delivered a "boom" of a punch, smashing fiercely at the Shadow Demon. Then, he shouted loudly towards Meng Qingxue, who was in front of the secret chamber, "Meng Qingxue, what are you waiting for? Hurry and take Administrator Wang and escape through the window! Get out of the building, quickly, quickly!"
Pang Wu shouted at the top of his lungs.
However, at this moment, the Shadow Demon had already enveloped Pang Wu's fist. Then, like maggots on bone, the Shadow Demon, like thousands of black worms, began to burrow into Pang Wu's nose, eyes, mouth, and pores.
Pang Wu struggled violently. Seeing that Meng Qingxue was still hesitating, he opened his mouth and shouted with his last ounce of strength, "Meng Qingxue, stop dawdling! Act quickly, take Administrator Wang, and escape!"
Pang Wu disregarded his own safety at this moment. Although he knew that opening his mouth would hasten his death, he had to use his last breath to remind Meng Qingxue to quickly take Wang Yi and escape.
Meng Qingxue stood frozen. She saw Pang Wu being swallowed alive by the monster, saw the other two monsters rushing towards her, and saw that the Jiaolong Squad, originally eight strong, was now only four.
At this moment, Meng Qingxue's hands trembled, her heart burned. She felt the power of faith, the dedication of the Jiaolong Squad to their mission, and their disregard for their own lives.
To complete their mission, they completely disregarded their own lives. They had only one thought in their hearts: to ensure Wang Yi survived, and to ensure Wang Yi smoothly signed the agreement tomorrow.
At this moment, Meng Qingxue suddenly drew her pistol. She also understood that she bore the mission and the meaning of her life.
Without a second thought, Meng Qingxue suddenly knelt on one knee and, facing the charging Shadow Demon, "bang," she fired her shot. The seemingly ordinary bullet spun towards the Shadow Demon.
The next moment, the bullet landed on the Shadow Demon.
The Shadow Demon showed no sign of stopping and continued to pounce towards Meng Qingxue.
The other members of the Jiaolong Squad saw this and immediately shouted at Meng Qingxue, "Stop shooting, it's useless!"
"Quickly take Administrator Wang and escape!"
"These evil things are not afraid of bullets. Bullets have zero damaging effect on them."
The members of the Jiaolong Squad warned Meng Qingxue as they ran.
However, in the next moment, after the bullet entered the Shadow Demon's head, a "boom" suddenly illuminated the ground with a blood-red lightning strike. The blood-red lightning directly struck the Shadow Demon's head.
"Crack!" "Boom!"
With a loud bang, the Shadow Demon's body was struck by the blood-red lightning and instantly turned into a pile of ashes, scattering on the ground, completely dead.
Meng Qingxue was stunned for a moment, and the members of the Jiaolong Squad behind her were even more so. At this moment, Meng Qingxue did not hesitate. She immediately turned her gun and with a "bang," fired another shot at another Shadow Demon.
Then, Meng Qingxue turned her gun and aimed it at Pang Wu.
At this moment, Pang Wu was still struggling. The Shadow Demon on his body was drilling into Pang Wu's mouth, eyes, and nose, trying to enter his body.
Deep breaths!
Steady your mind!
Believe in yourself!
You were once the ace sharpshooter of the police academy!
Meng Qingxue pulled the trigger again. With a "bang," the bullet spun towards Pang Wu. The bullet accurately entered the Shadow Demon's body but did not hit Pang Wu.
"Crack!"
Another blood-red lightning bolt struck the other Shadow Demon, instantly turning it into a pile of ashes.
The third bullet landed inside the Shadow Demon that was on Pang Wu.
Lightning materialized out of nowhere and struck down, and with a "boom," the Shadow Demon dissipated. Pang Wu coughed non-stop, his eyes wide open.
He had thought he was doomed, but he never expected the Shadow Demon inside him to suddenly turn into countless ashes and die completely.
Pang Wu clutched his chest.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough!"
He coughed incessantly, spitting out the ashes from his body. He looked up at Meng Qingxue with disbelief.
The other three members of the Jiaolong Squad also stopped. The four of them stared blankly at Meng Qingxue, their faces filled with disbelief.
At this moment, Pang Wu suddenly knelt on one knee. He fiercely clenched his fist and beat his chest. Pang Wu said loudly, "I'm sorry, Meng Qingxue. I underestimated you before. I misunderstood you."
"You are a true heroine, a formidable warrior, a true war god. Your strength is immense. Thank you for saving Administrator Wang's life, for saving this mission, and for saving my life, Pang Wu. You have avenged my brothers. Thank you."
As he spoke, Pang Wu beat his chest again, his face full of shame. At this moment, he was filled with gratitude and admiration for Meng Qingxue.
Meng Qingxue herself was also stunned. She looked at her pistol, then at Pang Wu kneeling on the ground, her face bewildered.
