Chapter 1006: The Unscientific Little Girl
He knows? Knows what? Yuwen Xuan and Xu Shuhan simultaneously looked at Ling Mo with confusion.
To be honest, Yu Shiranâs words seemed to answer their questions on the surface, but in reality, the more they listened, the more confused they became.
Who is Black Silk? Yuwen Xuan didnât ask. But aside from that, there were many things they didnât understand. And now it seemed that the only ones who truly knew what was happening were Yu Shiran, the person involved, and Ling MoâŠ
âAlright, we need to hurry,â Ling Mo paused for a moment before continuing. As he spoke, he had already stood up from the ground and grabbed Yu Shiran. Meanwhile, the fireball on the ground had completely extinguished.
In the darkness, the three of them heard Ling Mo say in a low voice, âBlack Silk hasnât disappeared⊠sheâs assisting us!â
âNo, sheâs notâŠâ Yu Shiran replied with a sob.
âBecause we were supposed to be led into a trap, but Black Silk alerted you⊠your appearance then alerted us, so now weâve truly turned a disadvantage into an opportunity,â Ling Mo explained.
âA trap?â
Yuwen Xuan and Xu Shuhan were momentarily stunned⊠but upon thinking it over, a chill ran down their spines. Thatâs right⊠the opponentâs goal was to lure all of them to the same location! Those screams, cries, even the footsteps made by Yu Shiran⊠all these noises were for the same purpose-to lure them! If this method didnât work, she would surely come up with other tricksâŠ
Initially, they thought the opponentâs method was a bit roundabout, but now that they considered it, it wasnât really a problem⊠As long as they imagined the opponentâs trap as a fixed location, then all her actions could be understood. What she aimed to do wasnât to lead them in one by one, but to use Yu Shiran herself as a decoy. Then capture them all in one fell swoop.
Thinking back, the figure Ling Mo saw earlier seemed like a reminder of Yu Shiranâs arrival⊠Was it that person who did it? If so, does that mean the trap is nearby?
In any case⊠this method is vicious!
It allows her to remain safe while causing Ling Mo and the others to turn on each other. At the same time, it ensures the highest success rate. Just now, they had completely mistaken this âpeculiarâ little loli as the enemy⊠if Ling Mo hadnât reacted quickly enoughâŠ
âWait,â Yuwen Xuan suddenly asked, âLing Mo, how did you recognize her just now? In that situation, you shouldnât have been able to see clearly, right?â
âThis isnât the time to ask thatâŠâ Xu Shuhan frowned.
âNo, no, I mean, if he has this kind of recognition abilityâŠâ
Ling Mo himself was momentarily stunned, but then his eyes widened as he looked sharply at Yu Shiran, âYeah, how did I recognize her?â
âHuh? ThisâŠâ Xu Shuhan was taken aback. She hadnât expected Ling Mo to answer, let alone react in such a way.
Even Yuwen Xuan, who had posed the question, furrowed his brow⊠This brother-in-law seemed to have inadvertently revealed something againâŠ
But what he revealed was merely another unknown secret. At times like this, itâs best to restrain oneâs curiosityâŠ
âHow did IâŠâ Ling Mo stared intently at Yu Shiran, vaguely seeing only a silhouette, yet he could clearly feel that the little loliâs eyes were fixed on him too, âHow did I⊠Oh, right!â áčÎŹïŒźá»êĂĆ
After asking himself twice, he suddenly realizedâŠ
âItâs because of Black SilkâŠâ Ling Mo abruptly raised his head.
âŠ
Meanwhile, Ling Moâs Zombie Puppet had followed those âGiant Facesâ into another passage. But the further they advanced, the more complicated Ling Moâs feelings became⊠This place⊠Why does it seem familiar?
However, the Underground Passage looked almost identical everywhere, and the traces on the ground had been completely destroyed by the Giant Faces, leaving Ling Mo puzzled. But soon, he was drawn to a scene on the wall⊠A large, crooked arrow.
âIsnât this the path we took before?â Ling Mo was somewhat stunned⊠Where are these Giant Faces heading? Not going back? OrâŠ
âDoes this path actually lead to their home?! No way!â
âŠ
âI feel somethingâs off,â Ling Mo said.
After mentioning Black Silk, he suddenly exhaled in a strange relief. But in the blink of an eye, his brow furrowed again.
âWhatâs up with Black Silk?â Yu Shiran was still hung up on this questionâŠ
âThisâŠâ Ling Mo hesitated for a moment, then leaned down to whisper two sentences into Yu Shiranâs ear. During this time, both Yuwen Xuan and Xu Shuhan strained to listen. But unfortunately, Ling Moâs voice was too low. Clearly, he was being cryptic again, a habit that really piques oneâs curiosity! Yu Shiran, however, nodded quickly after listening, even patting her chest in reliefâŠ
âHmm? Did she just shiver? Was it my imagination? It must be! So she has more than just an evolution level to surpass me⊠How can a little girl grow up like this, itâs so unscientific! Where did your virus go!â Xu Shuhan suddenly felt a bit franticâŠ
âQuickly, tell us whatâs wrong!â she urged.
âItâs hard to say right nowâŠâ Ling Mo suddenly glanced around. âIâve realized that maybe ever since we appeared here, weâve been under surveillance⊠and the whole thing might have been orchestrated by someone. But⊠their motive remains unclear.â
âThe whole thing?â For Yuwen Xuan and the others, this âwhole thingâ was far from complete. Who knew where Ling Mo considered it to have started? Regardless, they all sensed that Ling Mo must have been secretly up to something behind the scenesâŠ
âWeâll discuss this later. Since things are looking grim, letâs get moving,â Yuwen Xuan urged.
âWell⊠itâs too late for that nowâŠâ a voice suddenly emerged from the darkness.
The voice was so clear that it startled everyone, as if unaffected by the black fogâŠ
âWho is it?â Xu Shuhan instinctively asked.
Ling Mo and the others immediately tensed up, while Yu Shiran stared into the darkness and whispered, âItâs herâŠâ
As she spoke, a little girlâs figure gradually emerged from the black fog. She had shed the pitiful demeanor she had shown in front of Yu Shiran earlier, now smiling with her hands casually tucked into her pockets. âYes, itâs me.â
âNo, waitâŠâ Ling Mo suddenly said, âShe canât be one of the survivors from that group, can she?â
Regardless of her age⊠her expression was definitely not one a normal human girl would haveâŠ
âWho are you?â Ling Mo asked coldly.
The little girl simply smiled without speaking, watching them with interest.
âYou have an accomplice, donât you?â Ling Mo didnât press further, instead posing another question.
âAnother one?â Yuwen Xuan immediately recalled the figure Ling Mo had mentioned earlier⊠So, what he saw before was actually someone else? Just how many shadows were lurking in this dark passage?
âOops⊠looks like I slipped up.â The little girl nonchalantly rolled her eyes, then quickly snapped her fingers. As soon as she did, Xu Shuhan and Yuwen Xuan instinctively took a step forward.
âHehe, donât be so tense. Relax, relax,â the little girl said, tilting her head slightly. A figure slowly emerged from behind her. âSince youâve already found out, I might as well bring him out. Speaking of which, havenât you seen him before?â She directed the last sentence at Ling Mo.
Seen him before? Ling Moâs brows furrowed slightly. He had a vague premonitionâŠ
âScreech⊠screechâŠâ
The newcomer seemed to be dragging his feet⊠his heels scraping against the ground, producing a series of grating sounds. When his figure fully appeared, Ling Mo and Xu Shuhan both widened their eyes in shock.
âItâs you?!â
âItâs him!â
The barely alive Survivor⊠Tang Hao!
âThisâŠâ Ling Mo had considered the possibility of this person appearing underground and had hoped to use him to find an exit. Yet, he hadnât anticipated seeing him under such circumstancesâŠ
âNo!â Ling Mo quickly realized that although this person was Tang Hao, he was clearly not the same Tang Hao as before!
His eyes were bloodshot, his body covered in silt, limbs twisted grotesquely, and he was staring at Ling Mo and the others with tears streaming down his face⊠Yes, he was crying, but with an incredibly fierce expression.
This scene was truly chilling. Despite showing a look of hatred, his eyes were filled with pleading and pain⊠When he opened his mouth with a âHoh,â it felt like a cry for helpâŠ
âWhat happened to him?â Ling Mo asked.
The little girl chuckled and said, âYou should ask yourself.â
âAsk me?â
âYeah, itâs just the aftereffects kicking in,â the little girl replied. âIf you hadnât beaten him half to death, he wouldnât be like this. But, well⊠itâs quite good this way.â As she spoke, she snapped her fingers at Tang Hao again. âThis is a satisfactory finished product. He should thank you for becoming like this. So, Iâll leave you some time together now.â
âStop right thereâŠâ Yuwen Xuan began to speak, but the little girlâs expression suddenly darkened. She swiftly waved her hand at him⊠Her movement was quick and light⊠Yet, with just that casual wave, Yuwen Xuan was sent flying backward, landing heavily on the ground.
Ling Mo reacted the fastest, but as Yuwen Xuan flew backward, his expression turned grim.
The little girlâs other hand seemed to be holding onto something, and she smiled at himâŠ
âYour ability is quite interesting,â the little girl said, suddenly clenching her fist.
Ling Moâs face turned pale.
As the little girl released her grip, her body slowly retreated: âThis is fun. I suddenly feel like weâre going to have a lot of fun together.â
