Chapter 1275: Which Part of Your Body Best Represents You?
A moment later, Ling Mo, deep in thought, lifted the guy up from the ground.
Although he was still tied up, the manâs face already showed a look of relief.
The other party hadnât killed him outright, which meant he wouldnât die for nowâŠ
But Ling Mo fell into silence⊠He hadnât expected Chief of Staff Wang to be even more cautious and cunning than heâd guessedâŠ
But most importantly⊠cold-blooded.
âSacrificing one person to confirm my existence, this way he minimizes the chance of exposing his own position. And taking this approach is to ensure their next move⊠to find an opportunity to wipe out Mu Chen and the others in one goâŠâ
âEven if I wanted to play the mantis stalking the cicada, this kind of action would cause me huge losses⊠And heâs doing this to give me a chance to face them head-on in a direct fightâŠâ
Ling Mo had already quickly sorted out the information the man had confessed⊠Judging from all signs, Chief of Staff Wang was ready to risk everything.
But after calming down, Ling Mo felt that things might not be so simple. The man hadnât lied, but there were definitely things even he didnât know. And judging by Chief of Staff Wangâs habit of always having a backup plan, Ling Mo even thought that maybe the things this man knew were deliberately revealed by Chief of Staff Wang⊠just in case.
âMoreover⊠the most crucial point in all his actions is to kill me. So what if I donât show up? His plan would fail. In this kind of plan, he can only hope for my choice, and thatâs definitely not something he can be at ease with. So even if this is part of his plan, there must be other contingenciesâŠâ
Actually, by this point, Ling Mo had already asked everything he could, and keeping this man around was of no use. But amid all his doubts, Ling Mo suddenly had a crazy idea.
He suddenly spoke: âYou said before that those people came here to look for something, right?â
The man nodded blankly: âYeahâŠâ
âI want a share of the goods, and the women are mine. Iâm also very interested in the things that could make them risk their lives to come all this way.â Ling Mo said, controlling the Zombie Puppet. As he spoke, he suppressed the frenzy inside him while thinking about how to phrase it without arousing suspicion.
After all, he was alone⊠As a Survivor who had just been about to kill someone, he shouldnât agree to cooperate so easily. He had to act more cautious⊠The main reason this man was so convinced of his identity was still because of those preconceived notions and Ling Moâs few vague hints.
But this kind of impression could be destroyed by the slightest flaw. The man would quickly find more loopholes and start doubting Ling Mo. At that point, Ling Moâs plan would be dead in the waterâŠ
So he decided to start with supplies⊠People die for wealth. But before the man could answer, he immediately added, âYou need to tell me what those things are, and, to put me at ease, you need to provide me with something. But donât worry. Iâm not interested in you guys, and Iâm even less interested in the business between your two groups. I wonât have any contact with anyone else in your team. Thatâs my condition for letting you go back alive. Think about it.â
What Ling Mo said was carefully thought out. Only this way could he show the utmost caution. As for not contacting the others⊠that was also to increase credibility. As a lone Survivor, this was the only way he could survive and pick up the spoils.
Sure enough, the man hardly showed any surprise⊠He hadnât expected this weirdo to just let him go. What shocked him was that this guy was actually a bit greedy⊠He immediately set his sights on the supplies.
As for the women⊠heâd just said that casually. Even if he could decide to leave those women behind, this weirdo would probably die at their handsâŠ
The man grumbled silently, then hesitantly said, âWell⊠I canât make that decision. And to be honest⊠I donât even know what theyâre looking for. My task is just what I said before⊠Maybe my boss knows this information.â
âHmphâŠâ Ling Mo, controlling the Zombie Puppet, let out a cold laugh and said nothing. This guy clearly didnât want to spill everything at once⊠Thinking of this, he simply added a little more, reaching out and grabbing the manâs neck. ÈĂêá»đÆĆ
Zombies are strong, and as soon as he exerted a little force, the manâs eyes widened instantly. He couldnât help but open his mouth, a trace of panic appearing on his face. Damn, he almost forgot this guy was a bloodthirsty weirdo!
âYou⊠what kind of guarantee do you want!â the man shouted, stammering.
Whatever, just agree first. Their main goal was to kill Ling Mo; once Ling Mo was dead, they could deal with this guy later. But this weirdo seemed to be quite cautious too, and heâd definitely come up with some outrageous demandsâŠ
As Ling Mo expected, the man had thought all these things throughâŠ
âThatâs more like it.â Ling Mo let go of his neck and said calmly amid his violent coughing, âYou said before⊠the other side doesnât know about your business, right?â
âYes⊠cough cough⊠yesâŠâ the man replied.
âGood,â Ling Moâs main body showed a slight smile, but the Zombie Puppet still spoke in a hoarse, calm voice, âTell me your information. I need to know your hiding place and your team composition.â
As soon as he said this, the manâs eyes widened.
This is just tooâŠ
Even though he was mentally prepared, this request was still way too outrageous!
This information? This was practically the top secret of their operation this time!
If it leaked out, their mission would be doomedâŠ
But killing Ling Mo was something that Chief of Staff Wang⊠and some of the Falcon senior management were determined to achieve.
Even he knew that only by getting rid of Ling Mo could they take back Miracle Base. Otherwise, even if they killed Yuwen Xuan, the Base wouldnât change hands.
But this weirdoâs attitude was clearly very firm⊠If he refused outright, he might be tortured to death the next momentâŠ
âUm⊠why do you want to know this? Actually, if youâre worried, after you let me take a message back, I can be your hostage⊠Of course, if you want to switch to another hostage, thatâs fine tooâŠâ The man was really desperate.
âCut the crap.â Ling Mo interrupted him directly and let out two dry chuckles. âSince you can abandon your companions without hesitation, it means your lives arenât worth much. Even if I keep you as a hostage, your boss can abandon you without a second thought. The reason you want me to switch hostages is because you thought of this, right?â
The man didnât speak, but he sighed inwardly⊠Damn it. This weirdoâs mind works so fastâŠ
âIâm well aware that I canât threaten you with myself. But if itâs your enemies, thatâs a different storyâŠâ Ling Mo chuckled and said, âAs long as I have your lifeline in my hands, if you try to go back on your word, Iâll leak this information. Like I said, as long as I get what I want, I donât care which side of you dies.â
Ling Mo bent down and added in a sinister tone by the manâs ear, âJust like if I hand you over to them now, Iâm sure I could get a good price for you. But⊠Iâd still rather cooperate with you⊠Iâm still a bit interested in those women⊠heheheheâŠâ
Damn it!
The manâs scalp tingled⊠this damned weirdo!
Especially that last laugh⊠it sounded like he already had all kinds of plays planned out!
At this point, all his doubts were gone⊠this guy was definitely a Survivor taking advantage of the chaos!
âBut⊠your request is too serious, I canât tell you⊠you still need to let me deliver the message so I can ask the Boss for instructions,â the man said cautiously.
Ling Mo glanced at this guy, just about to squeeze him again, but then put his hand down. This man wasnât lying⊠judging by his behavior, he didnât even fully know this intelligence himself. Forcing him further wouldnât get any results.
A moment later, Ling Mo lifted the guy upright in contemplation.
âWhatâs your name?â Ling Mo asked.
The man froze for a moment, then answered, âIâm Chen WenâŠâ
âXiao Chen, right?â Ling Mo interrupted him directly, then let out a meaningful laugh. âWhich part of your body do you think best represents you?â
Chen Wen was stunned at first, then his face instantly turned pale⊠he could already imagine an invisible guy standing in front of him, waving a knife at his ear, his fingers, and so onâŠ
At the same time, he immediately understood Ling Moâs meaning⊠this guy wanted something from him!
But this was also to be expected⊠this weirdo clearly wasnât going to be careless.
âNo need for that, I can give you a token!â Chen Wen shouted quickly.
A few seconds later, Ling Mo took a ring off his hand.
Although he had already searched Chen Wen during the tying up, he really hadnât noticed this.
âJust this?â Ling Mo asked.
Chen Wen nodded and said, âThereâs my initials engraved on the inside of the ring, it can prove my identity!â
After saying that, he suggested, âYou took my Communicator, right? If you want to negotiate, you can contact them directly through thatâŠâ
âNo need.â Ling Mo refused outright. He had already noticed that the Communicator was a disposable item⊠and he remembered the person who modified it, a girl he personally brought to Falcon CampâŠ
The personal traces on it were too obviousâŠ
If his guess was right⊠this Communicator was also prepared by Chief of Staff Wang as a precaution. If Chen Wen couldnât make it back alive, he could use this Communicator to send a message back. After that, the thing would explode⊠destroying the evidence.
That way, even if someone found Chen Wenâs corpse, they wouldnât be able to identify the shape of the Communicator from the blood and fragments, so Chen Wenâs identity wouldnât be exposed right away.
Just to confuse Mu Chen and the others for a short time, Chief of Staff Wang went to such lengthsâŠ
Ling Mo felt more and more that in this final battle, the other side would be extremely well prepared. Maybe everything he was hearing and seeing now was all part of their plan. This was a trap within a trap, and the best way Ling Mo could think of to break it was to walk right in.
It was a crazy idea, but worth a tryâŠ
So, it turned out Chen Wen really wasnât being honest, holding out until now to try to coax Ling Mo into using that Communicator. He knew that to keep him from yelling, Ling Mo would probably go outside alone to use it, and the result would be obviousâŠ
Sure enough, when Ling Mo refused, a trace of disappointment flashed in Chen Wenâs eyes. Ling Mo sneered at his reaction, then continued, âI have a better wayâŠâ
