Chapter 1178: Live or Die, It All Comes Down to This!
For a moment, Liu Yangās movements came to a halt.
Ling Mo stood where he was, his expression grave as he stared at himā¦
Did it work?
After a long second, the Tentacle dissipated, and Liu Yangās eyes were revealed.
No bloodā¦
He suddenly opened his eyes, and it looked as if countless Tentacles were writhing within his eyeballs. Then, these āTentaclesā slowly retracted back into his eyesā¦
Ling Moās scalp tingled as he thought to himself, āLooks like heās blocking attacks with those blood vesselsā¦ So, his eyes actually donāt have the function of seeing anymoreā¦ Then, how does he āseeā me? Smell? Sensing?ā
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Ling Mo launched several more attacks in quick succession. After Liu Yang opened his eyes, he continued walking toward him.
Ten metersā¦ nine metersā¦ eight metersā¦
Ling Moās attacks landed precisely on various parts of Liu Yangās face and on the locations of his vital organsā¦ Yet, whether it was his skinās defensive capability or those countless blood vessels, Ling Mo felt he couldnāt find a way in.
Those blood vessels drilled out from his skin without causing any damage at all. The most troublesome part was that they could suddenly emerge from anywhere, or all concentrate in one spot. In this way, even if Ling Mo focused all his attack power on a single location, it wouldnāt yield any good results.
āSo troublesomeā¦ā Ling Mo finally understood where Liu Yangās confidence came fromā¦ Just as heād said, Ling Mo only now truly understood the strength differences between Puppets of different Levels.
The lowest Level 3 Puppet is just parasitized by a Level 3 Host Body. Although theyāre stronger than their original human main body, their strength is still limited. But a Level 2 Puppet like the Niepan captain is much more formidable. Not only does he retain his original human consciousness and Superpower, but he can also be Controlled. The degree of physical enhancement is more than a notch above Level 3.
But he still has flawsā¦ And that flaw is precisely because he remains conscious. One body, two Controls-at first glance, itās shocking, but over time, the drawbacks become apparent. Even so, dealing with him isnāt easy. Take Ling Mo, for exampleā¦ He used a trap and tried his best to avoid getting entangled, but still expended a huge amount of psychic power. At this moment, the psychic energy he had left was actually only about half.
That full-force attack on Level 1 Puppet Liu Yang just now cost him a lotā¦ And during Liu Yangās approach, he was also burning through it rapidlyā¦
āWhat, youāre not going to keep fighting?ā Liu Yang looked at Ling Mo, who was staring at him intently, and said, āIf it were under different circumstances, maybe Iād think youād already given up. Butā¦ I can tell you havenāt lost hope yet. So, still trying to figure out how to deal with me? Itās useless. Level 1 Puppetā¦ is made specifically to deal with you. With your current strength, even if I stand here and let you hit me, you still wonāt be able to hurt me. In the end, youāll just collapse from exhaustion. Compared to us Zombies, once you humans fall, you have no chance to struggle. Because, aside from your Superpower, your main body is just too weakā¦ā
āSo what if Iām weak? I havenāt fallen yet.ā Ling Mo glared at him.
But even as he said this, anxiety began to build in his heart.
Indeed, if this goes on, heās definitely going to loseā¦
āNo, I canāt die like thisā¦ I still have to help Ye Lian, I still have to go further with themā¦ā
Yet in this tense moment, Ling Mo suddenly recalled Ye Lianās diary of memories.
Deep insideā¦ sheās hoping tooā¦
Ling Mo even thought of those nights hiding in residential buildingsā¦ Zombies everywhere outside. In the dead of night, sometimes a shrill scream would suddenly pierce the airā¦ And outside his door, there would occasionally be some bone-chilling noises.
Back then, what kept him alive with bloodshot eyes, even going out to fight Zombies, was that helpless, terrified voiceā¦
Everyone needs a reason to keep going, and Ling Moās reason started as one, but now he has many moreā¦
āI want to live.ā Ling Moās mood suddenly calmed.
Five meters leftā¦
He began to calmly observe Liu Yang, carefully recalling the scene of his earlier attacks.
āHeās rightā¦ The way Iām attacking, I canāt hurt himā¦ Basically, Iāve attacked every possible spot on his body, and every strike was with full force. If I canāt break through now, then no matter how many more times I hit, I definitely wonāt break through.ā Ling Mo quickly reached a conclusion. ČšŖĘČ°ąøæĆÅ
āBut this thing canāt be invincibleā¦ Otherwise, the Spider Queen could have become Lord of the City just with these Puppets, and wouldnāt need to bother me. Soā¦ whereās the flaw?ā
āHmmā¦ From a normal perspective, as long as my attack power is stronger than his defensive capability, I should be able to defeat him. But heās defending with his whole body, and his reactions are faster than anythingā¦ Iāve used a lot of Materialized Tentacles, but when attacking his head I also mixed in quite a few psychic tentacles, but none of them workedā¦ā Thinking of this, Ling Mo was puzzled again.
āI found it strange before-he clearly has the ability to think, can talk to me, and is very similar to that Niepan Member and the Controllers of those Level 3 Puppetsā¦ But why isnāt he affected by psychic power attacks? Even if heās completely under the Spider Queenās remote Control, that still requires a psychic link, right? Like the last Progenitor I met, he had an Avatar, but they communicated through psychic power. Or Black Silk, who split himself into two parts, but ultimately itās psychic power at workā¦ Right, this Level 1 Puppet just said it himself, heās made specifically to deal with meā¦ So, I shouldnāt think about this in the usual wayā¦ā
āLing Mo, you can sleep now.ā
Liu Yang had already raised an Arm.
But at that moment, Ling Moās eyes finally lit up.
Heād figured it out!
āHahaha, I get it nowā¦ā
As long as all these points are sorted out, the answer becomes obvious! And the answer was actually spoken by Liu Yang himself!
Itās just that at the brink of life and death, itās hard to think of so much all at onceā¦
āThe answer is in what he saidā¦ With my current ability, even if he stands there and lets me hit him, I still canāt kill him. Hahahaā¦ I really canāt kill him!ā But Ling Moās lips slowly curled upā¦ Why canāt he kill him? Isnāt it because heās being worn down? Soā¦ why do these Puppets have to wear him down first?
āIn other words, at my peak, I might be able to kill him. But my Tentacle attack power is almost evenly distributed-if one canāt break through, even hundreds probably wonāt pierce it. Because I can concentrate my attack once, but he can also concentrate his defense in one spot, itās practically a stalemate. But thereās one thing he canāt defend againstā¦ā
āAnd thatās the psychic power he doesnāt care about!ā
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Liu Yang, who had just made a move, was stopped againā¦ The blood vessels that had just spread from his Arm were beaten back by Ling Mo.
Next, as Ling Moās face grew paler, Liu Yangās whole body was bound by Materialized Tentacles.
These Tentacles kept tightening, finally trapping him in place for the moment.
But Liu Yang wasnāt nervous. He still looked at Ling Mo expressionlessly and asked, āAre you planning to run away? You should know, with your physical condition, you have absolutely no chance of escaping in front of me.ā
āI know, of course I know,ā Ling Mo replied.
āSo youāre planning to try again? Itās useless, Iāve alreadyā¦ā
āUseful or not, youāll know soon enoughā¦ā Ling Mo showed a trace of excitement, his heart pounding wildly.
Live or die, it all comes down to this!
