“It’s loaded. You hold it like this and when you want to attack, point it at the target and pull the trigger.” Without time for extra explanation, Quark directly revealed the method of using this weird contraption.

Tang Ling learned quickly, but deep in his heart, an indescribable strangeness tore him apart. Just pull the trigger and the item will attack? What kind of attack could this item which weighed less than 2.5 kgs do?

“Remember, tighten your wrist when you use it. It’s not considered as a successful... handgun in the old civilization, but it’s the most powerful one.” Speaking of which, Quark gently stroked the weird item and looked at Tang Ling. “You can call it Desert Eagle. Maybe with your physical qualities, you can achieve continuous high-speed shots, but the main point is to tighten your wrist like this.”

The explanation seemed to have triggered something in Quark. He could not hold it and nagged the boy. He also conveniently showed Tang Ling the proper way to hold it.

Tang Ling tightened his lips. He finally heard Quark mentioning the old civilization as though the abstract concept suddenly became alive through Quark’s mouth.

Handgun? Desert Eagle? What a weird name and that was a term he could not understand. In addition to that, he could not relate the two concepts together.

Anyway, it obviously was not time to be curious. Tang Ling also gentle stroked the Desert Eagle in his hand as the icy cold touch of metal gave him an indescribable feeling.

“How’s its power?” This was a crucial question to Tang Ling.

“Incomparable to a bomb. If the last danger is what I think it is, all it can do is scrap a piece of scale from its body, but if a normal man is shot by this, he will be shot into a sieve. What I mean by that is he’ll have a bloody hole in the front and a badly damaged back.” Quark signed with his chest and back.

“Maybe the people of this era won’t have it that bad. Anyway, I’ve never tried it before either, but I’m very certain if it hits the weak spot, the target will die right away. 100%!” Quark could only provide that much information regarding the Desert Eagle.

However, Tang Ling’s temples twitched uncontrollably several times. His headache was killing him. It was as if something suppressed inside him was trying to break out of his skull and invoke the things he had forgotten.

It was a very strange feeling that seemed certain yet extremely vague. Thankfully, the feeling lasted for less than a second before it calmed down.

Tang Ling’s expression did not show any unusual reaction, but deep in his heart, he was astonished. He did not know what kind of feeling it was. It also reminded him of his blank memories before he was adopted.

It was very strange. The people of the old civilization and Quark’s words, ‘maybe the people of this era won’t have it that bad’ kept repeating itself in Tang Ling’s head. However, he could not tell why was he so concerned about what the man said.

Deeply inhaling, he discarded the messy thoughts out of his mind. Tang Ling explained the details of the operation to Quark once more. Then, he silently jumped off the metal pipe.

The last gamble seemed a little cruel.

His arm where his grandmother grabbed earlier hurt a little. Right when he jumped off the metal pipe, his grandmother grabbed him vehemently. She obviously wanted to stop him from taking the risk but she was helpless against it.

His sister was unusually obedient. She had been quiet since they entered the tunnel. Maybe she also realized this was not the time for her to be capricious and act like a spoiled child.

Thinking about all these seemingly unnecessary things, endless courage rose from the bottom of Tang Ling’s heart.

As he walked along the tunnel almost inaudibly, crossing the black-horned snakes that he killed one after another, not even a single finger of his trembled.

He knew Quark was following him. Maybe because he was overly nervous, the heavy panting of his got louder.

Thankfully, Grandma and his little sister’s footsteps were behind that heavy panting.

Tang Ling revealed a relieved smile, and he was almost reaching the sensory range of that big snake according to his calculations.

It was not known whether it was because of his Precise Instinct that Tang Ling’s eyes and ears were unusually sharp. After he adapted to the environment, he could see things in the dark and was able to listen to the slightest noise.

Obviously, because of this, the task of buying more time must be carried out by himself.

10 meters.

5 meters.

1 meter.

Counting in his heart habitually, Tang Ling performed the final calculations.

Right after he entered the range of the threat, he stopped his steps. The stop was within his plan, but it was also the unexpected change outside his plan.

Upon his first glimpse at the so-called big snake, that icy-cold, tremendous, suffocating sense of danger stopped him from acting according to plan. Instead, he followed his instinct and paused in his steps.

So, this was a black-horned purple-striped snake?

The purple stripes covered up the majority of the snake’s skin, forming a mysterious pattern with an icy-cold luster of metal.

The horns, which were originally black, became bright red and crooked in a strange angle as if it was a thin saber that his grandmother had once collected from the ruins of the old civilization.

It was massive.

Its girth was almost as wide as Tang Ling’s shoulders. Even when curled up, he could tell its total length was no shorter than 20 meters.

If all the mentioned was just the terror he felt from its appearance, the thing that horrified Tang Ling was its gaze.

It was not the gaze of a snake. Its icy-cold gaze had almost no movements. It was filled with emotions, sneers and disdain which only humans could show. It did not seem to be surprised by Tang Ling’s appearance at all.

It felt like the big snake was waiting for Tang Ling to step into the trap!

Tang Ling felt like his last pride, the pride of weakling humans having a semblance of intellect, was beaten. How could the fear not leave a deep impression in him?!

“Run!” Despite the fact that he almost suffocated, Tang Ling still screamed out loud, yet the trembling in his voice was as clear as day.

Hurried footsteps sounded as Quark brought Grandma and his little sister dashing forward.

The brazen footsteps echoed in the empty tunnel. Every step taken was like a drum beating in Tang Ling’s heart. He had always been calm, yet his fingertips started to turn cold.

However, the big snake reacted lazily. It slightly lifted its head and spewed its tongue forward as if it felt the weak living beings before its eyes were interesting enough to put some effort in.

However, Tang Ling did not think the threat would simply go away like this. Quite the contrary, the danger premonition that his Precise Instinct provided was heavier than ever as if a powerful hand had grabbed his heart instantly.

Almost instinctively, Tang Ling lifted up the Desert Eagle in his hand. His left leg exerted strength and he used the rebounding force to push himself backward.

At the same time, he also pulled the spot known as the ‘trigger’ in the Desert Eagle.

Bang!

A loud bang echoed in the tunnel. While it was much ear-friendlier compared to the explosives in terms of noise, the rumble that followed almost made Tang Ling lose the steadiness of his right hand holding the Desert Eagle.

Then, a clank similar to two metallic materials clunking together sounded. That large snake, which reacted lazily a moment ago, had wriggled straight up to Tang Ling’s face.

The giant snake shook its head, and a line of bright sparks then flashed in the underground tunnel.

Mistake! It was the first time Precise Instinct made such a big mistake!

Whether it was the judgment about the snake’s sensing range or its speed, the mistakes he made were ridiculous!

For the first time, Tang Ling lost the grasp on a battle.

Unfortunately, there was no space for him to dodge at all.
