Chapter 1063: A World That Judges by Appearance
âCough cough⊠Am I not dead yet?â
Spider Man had just barely managed to open his eyes when a tremendous force smashed into his abdomen. He immediately cried out, his body arching up like a shrimp.
âWant to die? Damn it, itâs not that easy! If youâre going to die, youâll have to wait for us to slowly play you to death!â
A manâs curse came from overhead, and then another vicious kick landed on him.
Amidst the intense pain, Spider Man struggled to take in his current situation.
This looked like a factory. All around were some large machines⊠A large flashlight was placed not far away, its bright beam illuminating the entire area. Around a dozen people, some sitting, some standing, were gathered at a not-so-far distance, watching him⊠The looks they sent his way varied-some were hateful, some cold and indifferent.
What surprised him most was a little girl, who looked at most old enough to be in kindergarten. At this moment, she was holding a long dagger. When she noticed his gaze, she stuck out her tender pink tongue to lick the blade, then gave him a sweet yet utterly terrifying smile.
Then, he finally spotted Ling Mo at the back of the crowdâŠ
However, there were no zombies here, nor that bone-chilling, gigantic mutation beast. After another kick, a man of about thirty finally walked over and grabbed the buzz-cut man who was about to keep kicking: âAlright, Ye Kai, calm down. Nowâs not the time.â
Ye Kai shook off his arm, panting as he stopped. He shot Spider Man a vicious glare and cursed, âTch! Weâll just let you, you damn bastard, live a little longer!â
âCaptain, heâs awake.â Mu Chen, seeing Ye Kai step aside, turned and called out to Ling Mo.
âCaptain? The leader of this Survivor teamâŠ?â
Spider Man was convulsing in pain. Hearing Mu Chenâs call, he struggled to raise his head.
But with one look, his solitary eye widened immediatelyâŠ
The one called captain was actually Ling MoâŠ
He watched as Ling Mo nimbly jumped down from the crossbar he was sitting on and walked straight toward him⊠Spider Man, terrified, almost screamed out instinctively: âAh-â
âShh-â
Ling Mo had already reached him in a few steps, and directly aimed the flashlight he picked up on the way right at his face.
The blinding light, coupled with Ling Moâs half-smiling, half-menacing expression hidden in the shadows, instantly made Spider Man shut his mouth. He stared at Ling Mo, but was too scared to say a word. đđÎá»âżĐáč§
From his position on the ground looking up, Ling Moâs eyes seemed to faintly glow redâŠ
This man⊠Is he even human?
âThatâs right. Listen up. Iâm going to ask you a few questions. Answer honestly, and Iâll let you die a little more quickly.â Ling Mo continued.
Hearing the word âdie,â the terrified Spider Man was instantly jolted awake. He shivered at first, then gave a âheh hehâ laugh, and finally managed to calm down a bit.
The corners of Spider Manâs eyes twitched slightly. He said in a low voice, âWhat else do you want to ask? No matter what you want to know, my fate is to die, right⊠Since thatâs the case, why should I tell you anything?â
âHeh⊠Youâre not wrong. But how you die, and how long youâll suffer before dying, thatâs a different matter.â Ling Mo made no effort to hide his killing intent. He spoke calmly, âBesides, youâre not exactly young anymore. You should understand that much, rightâŠâ
âWho said Iâm not youngâŠâ Spider Man suddenly raised his voice a little, âIf you count it, I just turned thirty⊠What, you saw my face and thought I was almost fifty?â
Ling Mo was stunned for a moment, then a look of realization flashed across his face: âItâs because of those Spiders, isnât it? No wonder⊠I thought there was no way theyâd stay on you without any conditions⊠Just as I thoughtâŠâ
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a glass vial, holding it up in front of Spider Man and shaking it, asking, âTell me, whatâs this about?â
Spider Man focused his gaze and was immediately startled. He seemed to want to reach up and touch his own eye, but unfortunately, both hands were tied behind his back.
Inside the vial was none other than that large SpiderâŠ
Except now, it had lost all its mobility, only twitching occasionally.
Spider Man stared at it, Adamâs apple bobbing up and down.
After a long silence, he suddenly slumped in defeat and asked, âWhat do you mean, whatâs going on? Just ask.â
âWhatâs with this Spider? And how did it parasitize your body? Actually, you probably know what I want to ask.â Ling Mo pressed him relentlessly.
To think, these Spiders could actually cause someone to age rapidly⊠Ling Mo was becoming even more intrigued.
âWhat, are you interested in these ancestors too? Canât blame you-Iâm just an ordinary guy, but with them, I could kill people right under you Monstersâ nosesâŠâ
âShit! Are you asking for another beating?!â Ye Kai immediately exploded.
Ling Mo, however, said nothing, just stared at him. Spider Man let out a couple of dry laughs, then said blankly, âThem⊠Actually, I donât know where they came from either. But the one youâre holding should be the leader of a group of Spiders⊠I guess youâve figured out it lived in my head, usually linked with my thoughts. But really, it mostly just sent information back to me. Like giving me Intelligence, or telling me when the Spider group needed to eat. That kind of communication⊠I donât know how to describe it. Itâs not language, just a kind of signal, I guess.â
âThis Spider itself doesnât eat those things. It only feeds on my blood. But donât be fooled by its size-its appetite is huge⊠Because of that, my life span got drained, and thatâs why I started aging so quickly.â Spider Man spoke calmly, then lifted his eyes to look at Ling Mo, âAnd⊠the reason I wanted to kill you was just because you all stayed here⊠As long as you stayed, youâd find me sooner or later. I looked like I could hide easily, but when it comes to face-to-face, Iâm always at a disadvantage. What I feared was, once you saw a Monster like me, youâd definitely kill me. So, I figured I might as well strike firstâŠâ
âCough coughâŠâ He coughed painfully twice, then forced a smile, âIsnât that what you wanted to ask? There, Iâve told you everything. If youâre going to do it, just get it over with!â
Having said that, he closed his eyes.
But from his trembling lips, it was clear he was still very afraidâŠ
However, after waiting several seconds, the death he expected did not come.
In confusion, he slowly opened his eyes, only to see Ling Mo staring at him with a mocking smile, full of ridiculeâŠ
âWhy arenât you doing it?â he suddenly roared.
Ling Mo tossed the glass vial in his hand and said, âAre you so eager to die? Heh⊠No wonder Iâve found your attitude odd since just nowâŠâ He suddenly lowered his voice and asked, âYouâre still planning to ambush us, arenât you?â
A look of utter terror flashed across Spider Manâs face, but he quickly forced a cold laugh: âIf youâve still got questions, ask! If you keep tormenting me like this⊠I really wonât say anything more.â
âFine.â Ling Mo caught the tossed vial in his hand and asked fiercely, âThis Spider-itâs a Male Spider, isnât it?â
âWhat does its gender matter to you!â Spider Man instantly flared up, âDamn it, are you messing with me?â
âWho has time to mess with you⊠If this was a female, thereâd be way more Spiders in the group, right? Just these few Spiders-could they eat up a whole town? Most importantlyâŠâ Ling Mo suddenly stared intently at Spider Man, âCould one person smoke so much, drink so much? I didnât find a single cigarette on you⊠Not even any traces on your fingers from long-term smokingâŠâ
