Chapter 1138: Those Who Block the Way Must Die!
As they set out, Ling Mo couldnāt help but glance at Ye Lian again.
He didnāt knowā¦ whether she could hold on safely until that momentā¦ or if something unexpected might happen along the wayā¦
After all, Ye Lianās advancement this time was far too rapidā¦
Although Ye Lian had already been on the verge of a breakthrough, Ling Mo hadnāt expected her to reach this level directly. The process of her last evolution was so brief that Ling Mo had almost overlooked it.
Thinking back, he realized it was because he cared too muchā¦
In that situation, it was hard for him to remain as calm as usual. Even though he maintained a certain degree of composure on the surface, inside, his mind was already a tangled mess.
By the time he regained his calm, the next operation had already begun.
On the other handā¦ judging by Ye Lianās current state, that momentary advancement actually didnāt mean much. Because until she broke through to the next evolution level, she would remain in this extremely unstable condition.
What worried him most wasā¦ once this āinstabilityā erupted, what kind of situation would arise? Ling Mo honestly had no ideaā¦
The unknown was the real sword hanging over their headsā¦
āSoā¦ everything must be done as quickly as possibleā¦ Iāve already bypassed the more dangerous armory. If there are Zombies entrenched here too, thenā¦ thereās only one option leftā¦ā
Kill!
Ling Mo hadnāt felt this way in a long timeā¦ but now, he was truly desperateā¦
āXia Na and Senior Sister are stableā¦ after all this, theyāre also close to another breakthroughā¦ But ācloseā is relative. Based on Ye Lianās experience, for them to truly break through, it will still take a lot of accumulation. Relying solely on virus gel, the speed is just too slowā¦ā
Originally, Ling Mo preferred āstable evolution,ā but everything heād experienced this month had been steadily increasing the pressure inside him.
Survival was getting harder and harderā¦ Ye Lian and the others might also face battles they had to handle aloneā¦
In such a worsening environment, only evolution could guarantee their survival rateā¦
Maybe the reason the environment kept changing was to further encourage Zombies to slaughter each other and evolveā¦
After humans became marginal Creatures, Zombies, now the mainstream, had become the most numerous Creaturesā¦ Perhaps what the virus was doing was replaying what had happened to humans, but this time among Zombiesā¦
Maybe this world would keep cycling through slaughter like this, until the day of its destructionā¦
āStop, stop, stop! What am I thinking! Is it really true that anxiety leads to chaosā¦ā
Ling Mo quickly shook his head and looked up ahead.
This Town road stretched straight toward the wilderness aheadā¦ and in that wilderness lay their destination-the silhouette of āgranary No.2ā³ā¦
āIf we clear it out early, when we get back, the Helicopter can take us to the armoryā¦ Then weāll figure something outā¦ā Ling Mo sighed inwardly, thinking.
ā¦
āHoo! All right, this should do itā¦ā
On the rooftop earlier, the Pilot was holding a rolled-up dirty shirt, wiping away the last trace of blood on the railing.
Although the smell of blood still lingered, with the corpses thrown downstairs and the rooftop cleaned, even if any stragglers followed the scent, they would never come upstairs. āį¼É“Ć“BĆį¹Ø
And while Ling Mo and the others were in action, as long as he stayed quietly here, nothing would happen.
āReallyā¦ I never thought Iād see the day when cleaning up corpses could actually make me feel goodā¦ Even though not everyone has turned into Zombies, the few who survived canāt really be considered normal humans anymoreā¦ But as long as I can stay alive, thatās all that mattersā¦ Sigh, what a pity about Zhang Sheā¦ā
The Pilot stared at the plasma on the shirt for a while, then stood up and reached out past the railing.
Once he threw away this shirt, all he had left to do was waitā¦
With every last bit of risk eliminated, there would be no more danger in this desolate little Townā¦
Yet just as the Pilot was about to let go, his expression suddenly froze, and his body involuntarily trembled.
He didnāt dare move at all, only slowly shifting his gaze with the corner of his eyeā¦
Squeak, squeak, squeakā¦
Accompanied by a very faint sound, the tightly closed Rooftop door was slowly openingā¦
āThatās not right! I clearly rememberā¦ I even braced it with an iron rodā¦ā
The Pilotās gaze suddenly shifted to the ground, only to find that the iron rod had, at some point, silently slipped to the floor and was now slowly rollingā¦
What truly alerted him was actually the sound of the rod scraping against the floorā¦ but even more so, a strong chillā¦
āGuluā¦ā
The Pilot swallowed, slowly reaching for his waistā¦
āItās fineā¦ If itās not the captain and the others coming back, then at most itās just a Zombie. Iāve killed these Monsters myself beforeā¦ā
The Pilot tried to encourage himselfā¦ but at the same time, the door kept openingā¦
As the iron rod stopped rolling, only the squeaking of the door and the Pilotās own rapid heartbeat remained on the Rooftopā¦
āGot it!ā The Pilot grabbed the pistol grip and yanked it out.
āIām their Logisticsā¦ā
āIf anything happens, Iām the backupā¦ā
āTheyāre risking their lives up front, if I canāt even handle thisā¦ā
āThatād be too embarrassingā¦ā
In the instant he drew his pistol, countless thoughts flashed through the Pilotās mindā¦
But what he didnāt expect was that when he finally mustered the courage to turn and raise his gun, there was already someone standing in front of him.
āThatās not a Zombie!ā
Just as the Pilot shouted this in his heart, a sudden chill brushed his neck.
āHuh? Whatāsā¦ happening?ā
The Pilotās eyes widenedā¦ He still wanted to fire, but as a hot stream gushed out, all his strength quickly drained away. As his trembling finger tried to pull the trigger, another chill came, and then, right before his eyes, the hand holding the gun dropped straight to the groundā¦
āHuh, my hand?ā
āAnd meā¦ā
The Pilotās vision began to blur. He involuntarily staggered back two steps, crashing into the railing, and then uncontrollably toppled backwardā¦
As the Helicopter disappeared from view and all he saw were buildings flashing past, the Pilot realized that what he was thinking wasnāt āIām going to die,ā butā¦
āDamnā¦ the Helicopterās goneā¦ā
A second before hitting the ground, the Pilot suddenly felt a bit self-mockingā¦
āThought Iād never have this damn sense of responsibility in my whole lifeā¦ā
Bang!
The Pilotās eyes were still staring upwardā¦
Behind the railing, that figure stood quietly, a short dagger dripping blood in his handā¦
Buzz, buzz, buzzā¦
āPlease Report to Chief of Staff Wang, the first step of the mission is completeā¦ā
The figure took out the Communicator and reported in a calm tone.
āNo problems, right?ā After a momentās wait, a womanās voice came from the Communicator.
āNo, they only left a slow-witted fool here. Killing him was easy,ā the figure replied.
āGood. With no backup, next theyāll have to fight the Niepan people. Remember, donāt act yet, you know when to waitā¦ā the woman said.
The figure nodded, āI understandā¦ā
āLing Moā¦ must die. Only when heās dead will we have a chance to fully take Miracle Base. At this point, only with more resources and manpower do we have any hope of survivingā¦ā
The figure slowly put down the Communicator. Plop-a thick, bright red drop of blood dripped from the blade to the ground, slowly soaking in, turning into a chilling dark redā¦
