Chapter 229: Beware of Barrel Burst

"Why don't you two go back and get weapons to help!?"

After knocking down one infected creature, Renault continued digging, throwing out two more in quick succession.

HK416, who had emptied three magazines in a row, was getting really anxious.

Her bullets were having little effect on these ELID Infecteds, and a magazine she had just filled up was empty in less than a minute!

"Sure! Coming!"

Hearing HK416's call, A-91 walked unsteadily to the ammunition box, sat down beside it on a rock, and picked up the speed loader from the box.

She waved to Simonov.

"Hey, Simonov, come help me with the bullets."

"Oh, okay."

The two drunkards, whether intentionally or not understanding HK416's meaning, didn't go back to get weapons.

Instead, they sat down beside the ammunition box and leisurely helped HK416 load bullets.

"You two!?" HK416, after emptying another magazine and knocking down another infected creature, turned around to see the two waving at her with smiles on their faces.

"Don't worry, keep shooting! We'll help you load bullets."

Seeing the smiling faces of these two, HK416 was about to explode with anger. Unfortunately, besides these two drunkards, there was no one else in the house to help!

Should she use the communication protocol to directly contact the other dolls at home?

HK416 hesitated, but Renault continued to dig, seemingly unconcerned about any accidents that might happen to her and didn't give her any orders...

Or... let's see how it goes. At least for now, with those two drunkards helping to load bullets, there's no need to worry about running out of ammo...

And Renault kept throwing out two ELID Infected individuals at a time, creating an unexpected balance in the situation.

The only thing that didn't stop was HK416's imprinted weapon.

After firing nearly a thousand rounds and killing over thirty ELID Infecteds in a row, the rate of fire of her imprinted weapon began to noticeably slow down.

The sensors inside the gun body had issued a warning. If she continued to fire like this, the sensors inside the weapon would probably be scrapped!

Was this his purpose!? To make her personally damage the sensors in the imprinted weapon!

Pulling the charging handle and ejecting the spent cartridge, HK416 finally understood what Renault was up to!

He wasn't testing weapons at all; he was expressing his dissatisfaction with the weapon's imprinting system!

At this moment, Renault jumped out of the pit and, after taking a few steps, a large number of ELID Infected emerged from behind him! There were at least twenty of them!

HK416 was truly shocked.

She had never seen such a reckless person before!

Wasn't he afraid of being torn apart by the ELID Infected while crowded in a pit with over twenty of them!?

"Good evening, Commander. Are you exercising after dinner?"

Simonov, holding a bunch of bullets, greeted Renault when he appeared.

"Sort of, but mainly here to test weapons." With that, Renault threw the shovel to A-91 and pulled out the 'pistol' he had just made from under his coat.

"Pff! Hahaha! What's this, Commander? Are you sure this thing isn't just a few pieces of sheet metal welded to a steel pipe!?"

Seeing the weapon in Renault's hand, Simonov burst out laughing.

The weapon looked so shabby!

"It's just for testing. We can change its appearance after the test is done." All he had to do was find a sleeve to cover up this rough steel pipe, make it look good, and make it not look like a cheap product.

With that said, Renault opened the safety of the weapon in his hand and aimed at an infected creature behind him.

Bang!

"Oh! This sound! Sounds a bit loud."

Simonov, who heard the gunshot, was stunned.

Although she had seen the magazine-like magazine on Renault's weapon, she hadn't expected him to load rifle bullets directly into the pistol.

"Not just the sound, the power too. It should be armor-piercing rounds." Seeing the silicon fragments explode from the ELID Infected creature's forehead, A-91 nodded.

The power seemed to be the same as that of machine gun bullets.

HK416 naturally knew this.

She had just watched Renault press those machine gun bullets into the magazine one by one.

However, besides those ordinary machine gun bullets, Renault had also assembled a batch of slightly different bullets afterward.

Although the caliber and cartridge were the same, she always felt that those bullets were not so simple.

Otherwise, why would Renault insist on making his own gun? He could just take out the spare machine gun from the gun cabinet, couldn't he?

Probably because there was a living person like Renault here, HK416's attraction suddenly became insignificant. All the ELID Infected were heading towards Renault, ignoring HK416, who had just knocked down over thirty ELID Infected.

Seeing this, Renault threw the 'pistol' at Simonov, "Be careful with the barrel."

Simonov catched the pistol and started aiming at the infected and said, "Don't worry commander! I'll test it!"
