My Girlfriend is a Zombie - Chapter 492
Chapter 492 Part 1 – Idiots usually take longer on this road
Editor: Zephyr04 Translator: Jhung
The middle-aged man suddenly felt that the person in front of him seemed a bit different…
Those eyes seemed to carry something hidden.
Being stared at like this, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Although the feeling was only for a brief moment, the illusion of being stared at by a poisonous snake still made the middle-aged man momentarily stunned.
“What the fuck was that…?”
The middle-aged man stared at Ling Mo, coldly snorted, and left the room.
He had no idea that Ling Mo’s spiritual energy was causing this strange feeling.
As a corpse puppet, “Li Hao” was actually a carrier for spiritual energy controlled by Ling Mo’s spiritual power.
What the middle-aged man saw in Li Hao’s eyes was a kind of mental pressure brought by Ling Mo when his spiritual power was highly concentrated.
This middle-aged uncle wasn’t a spiritual-type psychic, so he naturally wouldn’t be able to find the root cause of this issue.
Obviously, the big head next to him was also not this type. He rubbed his head as he stood up and said, “Since you came back by yourself… The leader’s punishment for you might not be too heavy.”
From his tone, it was clear that even he didn’t believe what he was saying…
“Let me ask you one more question… Do you know Ling Mo’s location?” Big Head asked hopefully.
“After knowing that he’s that strong, do you still insist on hunting him down? How do you plan on killing him?” Ling Mo asked curiously. “I really don’t want anyone else following in my footsteps. Until we get a better understanding, I’m not going to say another word to avoid the risk of someone doing something stupid.”
If Ling Mo said this himself, he might not have been able to say it without his face turning red…
However, using the corpse puppet to say these words made it extremely easy.
Even if he isn’t good at lying, it wouldn’t matter. The facial expression on this corpse puppet was frozen, making it look like he was sincere…
Ling Mo’s motto was, “You should always keep your friends close and your enemies closer.” Knowing what their plans were would make it easier for him to mess them up.
The man with the big head stared at him, thinking, “This guy really did come back to receive his punishment. It seems that even if he has to suffer, he’ll do anything to kill Ling Mo. As for caring for his companions, that’s a load of bullshit. The advantage of a big power is that their hand can cover the sky and squash anything with a pat, but the disadvantage is that this hand has five fingers spread out, and there are holes everywhere.”
That’s why Ling Mo could slip through their fingers…
However, that’s fine. As long as the palm was strong enough and big enough, a few extra pats will do the trick.
The two men glanced at each other. The man with the big head weighed the matter inwardly and then roughly told Ling Mo about what they knew.
He wasn’t afraid of telling Ling Mo these things because these things weren’t a secret, at least not for the internal personnel of the Air Force regiment…
But what made him feel a bit weird about this youth was that not only was he interested in their tactics, but he was also interested in those who insisted on continuing to chase Ling Mo.
“Could it be that… this guy is waiting to see who else is going to be unlucky with him? Haha, this is so not like him…”
The two conversed with each other for a long time. The man with the big head told him a lot of information but didn’t get much back from Ling Mo.
However, just like Ling Mo thought, these people would somehow help him find a reason for his odd behavior.
For example, right now, the man with the big head was thinking, “This poor sap must be holding on to this piece of information to find a way out for himself…”
Ling Mo only gave a bit of information, which caused the man with the big head to somewhat scoff at his attitude.
“This guy must have been scared silly…”
“Although it isn’t easy living as an individual in this time, if a person like Ling Mo dares provoke our Air Force regiment, then he deserves to die. The leader values respect and will also do anything to cover up anything shameful. Who told him to offend people that he shouldn’t have offended?”
The man with the big head shook his head in amusement and said, “It has always been like this. There are always some people who ordinary people can’t afford to provoke. Did they really think that everything has changed after the apocalypse? So naive… Unfair, isn’t it? But this is the reality. You should be able to understand this concept, right?”
“Naive? Reality?”
Ling Mo sneered in his heart. “It’s still unknown who’s the naive one…”
“Since you’re not in a hurry to say it, let’s save this for tomorrow…”
The man with the big head patted his head, then stood up and said, “It’s almost night time Captain Li. You should hurry up and get some rest.”
The words “hurry up” were spoken loudly, as if he was afraid Ling Mo wouldn’t hear it.
“Sheesh… We have to talk about the same thing multiple times before moving on to something else. It’s almost as if you think saying it more will allow me to understand the hidden meaning much clearer… It’s so tiring talking to these people!”
Staring at the slowly closing door, Ling Mo lay back down. His body suddenly stiffened and his attention returned back to his main body.
Compared with this corpse, it was much more enjoyable to be in his own body.
Although he was sleeping in the wilderness, it still felt quite comfortable since he could lean on Xiao Bai’s body.
Unlike zombies, Xiao Bai’s body was quite warm.
If it wasn’t because his body had a faint smell of blood, he would have been the perfect self-heating pillow.
But what made Ling Mo a little depressed was that this stupid animal seemed to have become quite friendly towards Yu Shi Ran. He wasn’t sure if Hei Si was the reason or not.
When it was alone, it was simply just a stupid animal. However, once it was with Yu Shi Ran, not only was it stupid, but it also became gluttonous towards food.
As a result, the fat on its body didn’t decrease but increased instead.
“Why are you so friendly towards a mysterious creature that wants to cultivate itself into a parasite!”
“Sure enough, Xiao Bai is a stupid animal whose IQ doesn’t exceed ten…”
Although Xiao Bai’s fur was white, it wasn’t conspicuous in this weed at all.
Even the watchtowers in the distance that are on duty 24 hours a day didn’t notice that a few more enemies had silently appeared right under their noses.
And inside the wilderness, there were many soft sounds, as if something was hiding in the shadows.
However, with Xiao Bai’s scent, coupled with the aura from a zombie leader emanating from a few female zombies, ordinary zombies don’t have the guts to approach them.
If they really did have the guts to approach them, they would probably get slaughtered by Yu Shi Ran or Xiao Bai as soon as they appeared.
Although these two idiots weren’t allowed to eat meat under Ling Mo’s direct order, they were still very persistent on the issue of eating.
In Yu Shi Ran’s words, “Fine, we won’t eat. But what about killing first?”
Ling Mo stretched out his hand and stopped Yu Shi Ran’s head from coming any closer. This zombie Loli was crawling towards his little buddy under the command of Hei Si…
While holding her head, Ling Mo also moved his body to make himself more comfortable on Ye Lian’s lap, and then he cast his gaze towards the direction of the small town.
“Is that guy here yet?”
Meanwhile, at F City–
A figure stuck close to the root of a wall, looking around from time to time, staying aware of the surrounding situation, and advancing all at the same time.
Before the sky became completely dark, the figure went into an alley and then entered a building from the back.
Next to this building was an artificial lake that had a heavy stench. To human survivors, this place was a natural barrier.
This building was the FIRE group’s base, the headquarters for a survivor group organized by psychics.
The moment Lucy stepped foot inside, the exhaustion on her face disappeared in an instant.
Although Lucy was dropped off pretty close to F City, it still took her a long time to return to F City in her state.
This made her feel even more anxious… “Ling Mo and the others… How are they now?”
“Did you reach the Air Force regiment yet, or are you lying on the laps of those girls while dozing off like usual?”
As she grabbed the doorknob and pushed the door open, Lucy’s heart suddenly became nervous.
If her companions inside choose not to offend the Air Force regiment, how will she be able to explain to Ling Mo?
They might even hand her over to the Air Force regiment as a ‘gift’ to please them.
This kind of possibility could still happen. The Air Force regiment was very capable of such things. After this incident, Lucy understood that.
This enormous monster was under complete control by a group of high-ranking people that have been in power for a long time. Like an unreasonable beast, even if it was just someone plucking a hair on it, it’ll use all of its strength to kill that person.
Everything was still unknown at this moment.
Squeak—
Lucy’s heart rate increased suddenly. She didn’t know what she was about to face.
But this didn’t hinder her actions. What about danger? The only thing dangerous was that she didn’t know when she would lose her mind.
In fact, when she entered the door, Lucy suddenly felt like she had become a ticking bomb.
If anything were to happen, she only had to stimulate herself a little bit, and she could probably destroy most of the base from the inside in an instant.
“No, No… Everyone here is my companion. I don’t think it’ll come to that… Also, when did my thoughts become so threatening? Those girls must have influenced me!”
Lucy quickly pushed all the blame to the female zombies and went inside with a bit of a guilty conscience.
Shua! *
She finally stepped inside after mulling over all kinds of issues. However, she didn’t expect to see several guns facing her as soon as she entered.
“Am I too late?”
Lucy turned pale in an instant. She stared at the strange faces that appeared in front of her. Just as she was about to grit her teeth and lift the machine gun, she saw a figure walk down from upstairs.
At first glance, this person seemed very refined.
But as he came closer, the messy hair and that crazy look in his eyes instantly diminished this impression.
Not only that, but he also looked extremely depressed. His eyes were sunken, with deep dark circles, and he wore an expression that looked like he was smiling, yet not smiling.
No matter how you looked at it, this person seemed a little weird…
SNAP!
After the sound of a finger snap, the air suddenly twisted not far from Lucy, and then a spark of flame suddenly appeared.
Psychic!
Lucy stared at this guy who was slowly walking towards her, and many thoughts were running in her mind.
“That…”
Lucy moved as soon as the stranger spoke.
Faced with a seemingly nervous psychic, Lucy decided to make the first move.
Unknown faces had suddenly appeared at this time and pointed their guns at her. If she were to hesitate, she might not get another chance to make a move!
With her mutating body, Lucy leaped forward at a faster speed than usual, and in the stranger’s wide-open eyes, a knee hit towards his abdomen.
But in the next second, she heard a sound that almost shocked her, “Ahahaha…”
“Bang!”
The stranger suddenly moved forward more than two meters, just passing Lucy, avoiding her attack.
“So fast!”
As she landed back on the ground after failing her attack, her pupils shrank, and she turned her head to look behind her.
“This person is very strong… eh”
The regret in Lucy’s heart suddenly froze as she stared at the strange exhaust fumes that were coming from behind the stranger…
He was indeed quite powerful, being able to dodge suddenly. His straight back also made him seem like a master.
But any guy that had black smoke coming out of his ass would make anyone unable to take him seriously.
Plus, the string of laughter seemed vaguely familiar, “Ahahaha…”
The stranger also realized something as he stared at Lucy. The two suddenly blurted out at the same time and asked:
“Are you that Lucy that Ling Mo was talking about?”
“Are you the silly friend that Ling Mo invited?”
The two looked at each other awkwardly, then one shook his head, and the other nodded…
“Let me introduce myself. I’m Yu Wen Xuan, Ling Mo’s eldest brother-in-law. You must know Ya Lin, right? She’s my cousin.”
Being called a ‘silly friend’ made Yu Wen Xuan slightly upset, especially when he saw his subordinates trying to hold back their laughter. He couldn’t help but feel a bit angry.
But the moment this guy started talking about Ya Lin, he immediately forgot about everything else, approached Lucy mysteriously, and asked, “How is Ya Lin recently?”
After confirming Yu Wen Xuan’s identity, although Lucy still had some doubts, she also felt a little embarrassed that she had just tried to attack him so suddenly.
So when Wen Xuan asked, she immediately prepared a bunch of answers in her mind as she replied, “She’s healthy.”
Unexpectedly, Wen Xuan didn’t give her enough time to prepare and immediately asked, “Then is their ‘life’ normal still?”
“What?” Lucy asked suspiciously.
The two looked at each other, and then Wen Xuan winked suddenly, “What I mean is… is she pregnant yet? When can I be an uncle?”
“…”
“It’s our first time meeting with each other, and you’re seriously asking me this question?! You brought several subordinates fully equipped with gear, and you’re also such a powerful psychic. How can such a person shamelessly ask such details and so eagerly in front of an unmarried female?!”
The expression on her face changed in an instant. Wen Xuan was still staring at her with a look of expectation. It almost seemed as if he was waiting for her answer.
“This idiot is even excited!”
“How the hell would I know these things? Do you think I look like the type of person that would squat outside their door to listen to them every day?!”
Lucy glared at Wen Xuan, and then quickly changed the topic to something more normal, “Why did you guys show up here?”
“Ugh… I’m so disappointed…”
“Disappointed?! As the eldest brother-in-law, is that something you should be worried about?!”
And when this guy asked Lucy this, she couldn’t help but think of some things that she was trying to forget. For example, those strange sounds she heard at night or the things the girls did in front of her that made her wish she could run away and hide every time…
Ahhhhhh! Lucy really wanted to find a blanket to bury herself in it.
“Brother-in-law asked me to come here. Although the Air Force regiment can’t ask the F group to join forces for this matter, they will certainly ask them to do a few small things here and there. So taking advantage of the situation, I might as well come here and ask you guys if you want to cooperate…”
As Wen Xuan said this, he led Lucy upstairs.
When passing by the few members of the Falcon Camp in civilian clothes, Lucy felt a sense of oppression.
Although these people looked pretty relaxed, they still seemed to be very capable…
After going upstairs, they went into a room. Lucy took a quick look around the room and then cast a somewhat surprised expression at a corner.
The guy who was tied up seemed a bit familiar! He wore a sad expression on his face as he looked at her.
“Wait a second… isn’t this guy from Liu Bao Dong’s team?!”
Although she never knew his name, Lucy still had an impression of him after spending a few days with him.
Glancing at the companions standing inside the room and then at the strange tall man guarding him, Lucy seemed to understand something…
“Lucy, you’re alive!”
A man with a Mohawk haircut jumped off the table. He walked over and said in surprise, “These people arrived earlier today. They told us that you were still alive, and we had planned to bring people to look for you immediately tomorrow. I didn’t expect that you would come back by yourself. Welcome back home!”
Lucy glanced at him. This man’s name was Misaki, which was also a pseudonym. He was considered a veteran in the F group.
The relationship between everyone was pretty good before, but now Lucy felt a little uncomfortable looking at them.
In the first ambush, the F group was also a victim.
The F group probably didn’t even know about the second ambush.
But now that Liu Bao Dong’s companion was here, she couldn’t help but think about several things.
Misaki seemed to feel something vaguely. He straightened his hair and said, “This person from the Air Force regiment came to ask us to help search together. According to them, we should help clean up this mess since you not only didn’t help your allies, but you also fought against the Air Force regiment with a man named Ling Mo… However, everyone present here didn’t help search.”
With that said, he glanced at Wen Xuan, and a trace of fear flashed across his face.
This Yu Wen Xuan seemed very abnormal. But only those that have seen him go crazy will know not to underestimate his capabilities.
Unexpectedly, the Falcon Camp came to intervene in such a trivial matter. Everyone in the F group didn’t expect this, let alone Masaki.
“What about the procedures? The discussions? What about the negotiations?”
“None at all!”
This lunatic didn’t care about anything and just suddenly crashed in, causing an initially small problem to turn into a huge mess.
