Chapter 1007: Are You Here to Scare Us?
âWait a moment!â
As the little girl slowly retreated into the black fog, Xu Shuhan hurriedly called out. But just as she took a step forward, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by Ling Mo. At the same time, Xu Shuhan felt the little girlâs gaze shift sharply towards herâŠ
âAhâŠâ
For a full two seconds, Xu Shuhan stood frozen, wide-eyed, staring at the little girl until her figure completely vanished from sight. Then she suddenly collapsed, leaning against the wall beside her, her face still etched with deep fearâŠ
âSheâŠâ Xu Shuhan attempted to say something, turning her head to look at Ling Mo who had held her back, but in the end, she only managed to whisper two words, âThank youâŠâ
If it werenât for Ling Mo, she might haveâŠ
Xu Shuhan didnât dare to think further. She had a strong feeling that her fear this time wasnât just due to her own lingering emotions, but rather something about the little girlâs presence that instinctively terrified her⊠Yet, from the little girl, she hadnât sensed anything related to the virusâŠ
Was that a human?
No⊠it couldnât be human⊠But if not, then what was sheâŠ
âAre you alright?â Ling Mo asked, standing up straight and rubbing his head without looking back.
âIâm fine.â
Xu Shuhan and Yuwen Xuan replied in unison. She then remembered Yuwen Xuan, who had been knocked away, and quickly turned to look.
In the darkness, Yuwen Xuan had already managed to get back on his feet and was shakily walking towards them. He seemed to have just taken a fall, without any serious injuries. But even so, Xu Shuhan still felt a chill.
First, Yuwen Xuan was knocked away from a distance, then Ling Moâs attack was mysteriously blocked and even backfired, and finally, she was completely paralyzed with fear by just a look from the little girl⊠The little girl hadnât gone for the kill, yet the power she displayed was utterly overwhelming. Three against one, and they couldnât even fight backâŠ
Thinking of this, Xu Shuhan couldnât help but start trembling. Just then, she felt Ling Moâs grip tighten around her wrist, holding it firmly: âDonât worry, it was just a test.â
âYeah, we can definitely look at it positively,â Yuwen Xuan said, wiping his face. âWith such an advantage, yet she didnât kill us. What do you think that means?â
âMmâŠâ Ling Mo nodded, clearly agreeing with Yuwen Xuanâs assessment.
âIs she trying to play us to death?â Xu Shuhan pondered over the little girlâs last words before she left. If she truly was just a little girl, then such behavior wouldnât be surprising. Perhaps for her, the thrill of the game outweighed the outcome.
âMaybe. But even if thatâs the case, it gives us a bit of breathing room, doesnât it?â Yuwen Xuan remarked optimistically. Despite his words, the wild look in his eyes betrayed the profound impact the little girl had on him, no less than what Xu Shuhan was feeling.
At that moment, Ling Mo suddenly pulled her behind him, saying, âAlright, no time to dwell on her⊠Donât forget, she left us a little gift.â
âHohâŠâ Tang Hao, tilting his head, opened his mouth and emitted a series of incomprehensible sounds as the three of them turned their gaze towards him. His eyes were completely blood-red, and his physical state seemed to have fully transitioned into a Zombie mode.
âBut his eyes still look humanâŠâ Xu Shuhan murmured.
Indeed, if one focused solely on his eyes, Tang Hao appeared even more lucid than when Ling Mo first encountered him. But his bodyâŠ
As Xu Shuhan finished speaking, Tang Hao suddenly threw his head back and let out a roar, âRoar!â
After the roar, his feet, dragging on the ground, suddenly bent, his gaze locked onto them.
âDodge!â Ling Mo whispered urgently.
âBoom!â
Tang Haoâs feet slammed into the ground, propelling him forward like a missile. Upon hearing Ling Moâs warning, Xu Shuhan and Yuwen Xuan simultaneously darted to the sides. Ling Mo, meanwhile, leaped straight up, clinging to the ceiling, his feet seemingly glued to the wall. ĆĂ„ÎoÍáĂáčą
âRoar!â
Tang Hao charged beneath Ling Mo, his explosive power was formidable; a direct confrontation might have put them at a disadvantage. Remembering the little girl, none of them dared risk injury. Witnessing Tang Haoâs immense strength, Ling Mo made the swift decision to avoid direct conflict.
Avoid the sharp edge!
âHohâŠâ Tang Hao now appeared as if his bones were misaligned, his body swaying as he charged. But upon realizing Ling Mo and the others had dodged, he couldnât stop in time. Just as he was about to pass beneath Ling Mo, he abruptly began to slow down, yetâŠ
âBoom!â
It was as if he collided with an invisible iron spear; Tang Haoâs body jolted violently, erupting with several bursts of blood. He let out a pained howl, losing his balance due to the recoil.
âNowâs the time!â
Xu Shuhan glanced at Ling Mo and charged forward. She was the only one who could get close enough to restrain this guy. And with her being unable to face the little girl, Ling Mo was the most valuable combat power to preserve⊠This was the moment for her to act!
But just as she reached out to grab Tang Haoâs shoulder from behind, Tang Hao, who had been falling forward, suddenly twisted his head around. His neck seemed to have a swivel, and his head turned at an eerie angle of over a hundred degreesâŠ
âHohâŠâ
Tang Hao opened his mouth wide, lunging at Xu Shuhan. At the same time, his arm twisted unnaturally, reaching directly for her neck.
Xu Shuhan clearly didnât expect this. Seeing the Monsterâs gaping maw exuding a strong stench of blood approaching her, she didnât even have time to raise her arm to blockâŠ
However, at that moment, a burst of Flame suddenly exploded above Tang Haoâs head. Simultaneously, a figure swung down from above, kneeing Tang Hao hard on the Hindbrain.
âOw!â
Tang Hao let out a cry, twisting his head as he fell. As soon as he hit the silt, the Flame on his head diminished, and Ling Mo landed on the ground with a frown, waving his hand over Tang Haoâs head to extinguish the Flame completely.
âAre you alright?â Ling Mo asked.
Xu Shuhan, still wide-eyed, suddenly felt a bit embarrassed when she heard him: âIâm fineâŠâ
As a Zombie, she hadnât been able to helpâŠ
âThanks, we couldnât have coordinated without your move,â Ling Mo said with a smile.
âThisâŠâ Xu Shuhan felt quite embarrassed⊠It was really humiliating! Please donât thank me⊠even though you seem sincereâŠ
Fortunately, Ling Moâs attention had already shifted to Tang Hao. He seemed to have used psychic power to bind Tang Haoâs limbs, then walked over to stand beside the Monster, asking, âWhy are you still here?â
âIâd like to ask the same question,â Yuwen Xuan clapped his hands and said.
Compared to that little girl, this Monster was pathetically weak⊠Didnât she say this was the real finished product? So what is this? Just here to scare them?
âClick, click, clickâŠâ
Tang Haoâs head slowly twisted back again, facing Ling Mo with a hideous expression, his throat continuously emitting âHohâ sounds.
Before Ling Mo and the others could say anything, two lines of bloody tears suddenly rolled down Tang Haoâs cheeks, and he finally managed to squeeze out a few indistinct words: âKill⊠kill me⊠kill⊠meâŠâ
âI donât understand,â Ling Mo said, unmoved. âWerenât you looking forward to becoming like this? Having the body of a Monster while retaining self-awareness, this should be the ideal situation for you.â
His words were not meant as sarcasm⊠In fact, he was merely repeating what Tang Hao had once told himâŠ
âIf you donât⊠kill⊠youâll regret itâŠâ Tang Hao sobbed, tears streaming down his faceâŠ
