Chapter 992: Sounds
âSqueakâŠâ As Yu Shiran stepped in, the door of the warehouse slowly closed again, leaving behind the empty Clothing Store and the two pieces of clothing discarded on the floorâŠ
At the same moment, Yuwen Xuan was also making a âshushâ sound, signaling Ling Mo and another to keep quiet for now.
âThereâs a noise!â A few seconds later, Yuwen Xuan whispered.
It was probably as he was speaking that a faint, barely audible sound came from the darkness. He quickly shut his mouth and silently took a couple of steps in the direction of the sound, then tilted his head to listen carefully. Due to the black fog, the sound was quite muffled and even seemed very distant.
But the fact that it reached their ears suggested it couldnât be too far away⊠However, in such a closed and spacious environment, accurately locating the source of the sound wasnât so easy.
âIt doesnât sound like itâs coming from a MonsterâŠâ Xu Shuhan whispered.
By then, the sound had disappeared; it had lasted for less than two seconds.
While speaking, Xu Shuhan glanced at Yuwen Xuan with some confusion.
How could he react faster than herself?
Could it be⊠that this Yuwen Xuan⊠was also fake?!
It wasnât impossible!
But looking at Ling Moâs reaction, it didnât seem likelyâŠ
âCould this personâs reflexes be exceptionally sharp?â Xu Shuhan wondered, unable to figure it out.
At that moment, Yuwen Xuan spoke again: âMaybe itâs a new kind of Monster⊠Different Monsters make different noises, thatâs not hard to imagine, right? AhahaâŠâ
âDid you figure out the direction of the sound?â Ling Mo interrupted him as soon as he opened his mouth.
âYuwen Xuan, didnât you figure it out?â Xu Shuhan asked instinctively.
But as soon as she spoke, she regretted it⊠She didnât know what Yuwen Xuan would think, but Ling Mo certainly knew what she meant, right? Surely Zombies are very straightforward! This kind of thing really canât be restrained!
Unlike Ling Mo, Xu Shuhan was still haunted by previous events. Although she hadnât seen Ling Mo harbor any suspicions, she occasionally came up with some rather terrifying thoughtsâŠ
Yuwen Xuan, oblivious, answered: âI canât do that. Iâm of the Elemental Ability type, thereâs black fog here. I can sense some fluctuations when they occur, but pinpointing their exact source, that I cannot do. How about you, can you hear it?â
âAh⊠I alsoâŠâ Xu Shuhan blushed. She really should trust Ling Mo moreâŠ
She uncertainly said, âI can only make out a rough location⊠probably, we need to go deeper in. Other than that, I canât say for sure.â
Having said this, she added nervously, âLing Mo, you donât meanâŠâ
âYes, letâs check it out.â Ling Mo nodded.
âI knew itâŠâ Xu Shuhan felt helpless.
They had found their clothes, and they had explored this path. Although they dared not approach where the Monster was, the new noise meant they had to seize the opportunity to investigate. Change meant opportunity, but it could also mean a greater threat. It must be said, Xu Shuhan, still retaining her fear, seemed even more timid now than when she was human.
Perhaps because her senses were sharper? When human, it was a case of ignorance is blissâŠ
As the noise occurred, she not only listened intently but also suddenly had a strange feeling. It was as if something had suddenly appeared in a huge house. Although invisible, thanks to her abilities, she could still sense a faint threat. đłĐâŠĂ¶ÊĐĆ
But the feeling was fleeting, and with the black fog, everything was quickly obscured. Who knew what lay within? Perhaps a few steps further, and they might see a Monster standing there.
So Xu Shuhan thought it over and decided to suppress this rather vague feeling for now.
Letâs confirm it first. Otherwise, in such an environment, mentioning it would only add to the pressureâŠ
âDo these two really feel the pressure?â Xu Shuhan couldnât help but doubt.
âThen letâs go,â Yuwen Xuan said excitedly.
âHost XuâŠâ Ling Mo then spoke.
Xu Shuhan sighed, âFollow me.â
As she spoke, she suddenly felt something around her waist, but when she reached to feel it, she felt nothing.
After a moment of shock, she turned back and saw Ling Mo slowly approaching her.
âIt must be his psychic power. It feels just like a real ropeâŠâ
Yuwen Xuan was following closely behind Ling Mo, and it was clear he was also being pulled by Ling Moâs psychic power.
The three of them moved towards the source of the sound as if climbing a snow mountain, linked one after another.
Leading the way, Xu Shuhan was under great pressure, but she knew that Ling Mo, in the middle, was actually the most tense.
He stood in the middle, yet had to take care of both ends. Whether it was her or Yuwen Xuan being attacked, Ling Mo would definitely be affected. However, with his psychic power, he could sense it first and pull them to respond in time. Besides making it easier to follow, this was probably the real reason he was willing to expend psychic power.
Moreover, the amount of Ling Moâs psychic energy was beyond Xu Shuhanâs imagination⊠He didnât seem tired at all! At most, he would just rub his brow occasionallyâŠ
Having a large amount isnât enough; a high throughput can also put pressure on the conduits used for transmission. This is similar to physical exertion. But if the stressed muscles can continuously recover during use, it can significantly extend the duration of use. Ling Moâs condition was probably like thisâŠ
But how does he recover?
Xu Shuhan couldnât figure it out. But now wasnât the time to ponder this; she carefully looked around and slowly moved deeper into the black fog. The well-fed Monster had yet to make a move, but the swirling black fog gave her a very uneasy feeling.
Ling Mo, following behind, was also silent. In his mind, another completely different scene was playing out.
Underwater.
The deeper the pool, the darker it appeared. And the process of the Zombie Puppet approaching the bottom of the pool felt similar to his journey into the black fog.
However, the situation of the Zombie Puppet was different from his; it wasnât just acting alone but was also in the midst of imminent danger.
But strangely, ever since he started seeing the black fog at the bottom of the pool, the hidden dangers around him had suddenly calmed down.
Although he could still feel being watched, those creatures had clearly stopped approaching him. They just continued to hide in the black fog, greedily watching him⊠as if staring at a piece of meat about to be Devoured.
âDamn!â
Ling Mo couldnât help but curse. This feeling was even worse than before!
What could make those creatures give up following? Obviously, it wasnât because of him, the food. The most likely reason was that there was something even more dangerous hidden at the bottom of the pool, which made them dare not approach.
Damn, damn, damn!
There was nothing more miserable than thisâŠ
But from another perspective, this also proved that he might have found the right place.
Next, the issue was how to escape from the tigerâs mouthâŠ
As he moved, the surrounding black fog and water also started to fluctuate.
Some debris at the bottom of the pool also appeared in his field of vision, floating vaguely, looking like some plastic bags.
Ling Mo climbed down a bit and then reached out.
âHoly shit!â
These werenât plastic bags at all! They were clearly that kind of membrane!
After a jolt like an electric shock, Ling Mo calmed down for a moment.
âFound the membrane, so the target must be nearby, rightâŠâ
He gritted his teeth and reached out again.
There were many membranes, and unlike the one he had found before, this one was much thicker.
Many membranes stuck together, seemingly pressed at the bottom of the pool, which had prevented them from floating to the surface.
Ling Mo waved his hand under the water to try to clear the black fog blocking his view, then slowly squatted down.
No matter what dangers were here, he had to figure out what was in front of him firstâŠ
