My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 705: The Monsters Tricks

Creak-

The Iron Door was pushed open slightly, and a small figure slipped through the gap swiftly.

In terms of stealth abilities, this Little Zombie Puppet was nowhere near as good as a Senior Zombie. However, because her level was relatively low, as long as she didn’t actively reveal herself, it was hard for those Senior Zombies in the distance to notice her.

Ling Mo glanced down at Mu Chen, sent out a few psychic tentacles to form a protective barrier over his head, and then his gaze became extremely focused.

He needed to find that Monster as quickly as possible…

In the past, using the Zombie Puppet to detect surrounding psychic fluctuations was a difficult task for him. But now, with his increased mental energy, using this technique had become much easier.

Still, the strength and range of the detection were not as good as when he used his main body. Fortunately, the Mall was a closed environment, and he only needed to scan the Ceiling.

The Little Zombie Puppet slowly advanced along the base of the wall, while the psychic tentacle that established the psychic link between her and Ling Mo branched out towards the Ceiling.

Different from before, not many psychic tentacles were needed this time. Considering her movement speed, one was enough.

Although Ling Mo was anxious, his focus was unshaken, and the psychic tentacle probed inch by inch.

There were so many psychic light clusters around, all with strong fluctuations, and the Little Zombie Puppet was increasingly affected, making Ling Mo’s probing more difficult.

“I don’t believe I can’t find you…”

Ling Mo frowned, increasing the output of his mental energy.

Suddenly, a strong fluctuation appeared within Ling Mo’s detection range!

The Zombie Puppet immediately halted.

Given the opponent’s great power, even a psychic probe could alert them.

After capturing this fluctuation, Ling Mo didn’t immediately search for the location of the psychic light cluster. Instead, he waited two seconds before slowly controlling the psychic tentacle to move along the Ceiling.

The movement was slow, in stark contrast to the anxiety in Ling Mo’s heart.

The more critical the situation, the more important it was not to rush…

“Huff…”

Ling Mo took a deep breath, calming his nerves.

For someone with mental ability, the strength of one’s psychic power is as crucial as the mindset during combat. Without enough calmness and focus, it’s impossible to fully utilize one’s true strength.

This principle also applies to those with Enhancement abilities. Without a strong combat sense, they cannot bring out their full potential.

As Ling Mo’s breathing gradually steadied, his “vision” was filled with countless psychic light clusters.

And that trace of fluctuation just now came from that spot on the Ceiling…

I’ve found it!

Within twenty meters above the Little Zombie Puppet, a psychic light cluster was “floating” there…

“A creature stronger than a Bird Zombie… Is it a Zombie, or a mutation beast?”

The blood-red psychic light cluster was undoubtedly from a mutation creature. However, just from this, Ling Mo couldn’t determine its main body’s appearance or its exact species.

“Should I probe it?”

Ling Mo pondered, but he was already controlling the Little Zombie Puppet to turn its head, looking toward where Ye Lian and the others were.

Past rows of shelves, he saw many zombies engaged in fierce battle.

At that moment, a glint of cold light flashed in a corner, accompanied by a spray of blood, entering the Zombie Puppet’s field of vision.

“Xia Na…”

That unique crescent-shaped blade was none other than Xia Na’s Scythe.

Ling Mo didn’t switch his view at this crucial moment; he needed absolute focus right now.

“At least a few hundred zombies are crammed in here, and even more are crowding in… Yet, none have approached this area…”

Ling Mo contemplated carefully and finally turned his gaze towards the Corridor.

“Let’s do this…”

With his mind made up, he grabbed Mu Chen and supported him as they headed toward the Iron Door at the other end of the Corridor.

As the Iron Door opened, Black Silk was already standing outside.

However, it was clearly at its limit. Its body wobbled, and when it opened its eyes again, it had already morphed into a disgruntled Yu Shiran.

“That Black Silk…” With her baby face, no matter how hard Yu Shiran gritted her teeth, she still didn’t look intimidating.

Ling Mo tossed Mu Chen over, interrupting Yu Shiran, and said, “Keep watch with Xiao Bai. If any creatures approach, don’t engage immediately; try to stay hidden. Keep an eye on Mu Chen. If he wakes up, knock him out again.”

On one hand, this allowed them to stay alert, and on the other, they could support him at any moment…

“Why don’t you just wake him up and take him with you?” Yu Shiran darted to the side, letting Mu Chen flop onto the ground with a thud. He still didn’t wake up…

“Hey…” Ling Mo’s face was filled with frustration.

Even though Mu Chen was an Enhancement ability superhuman and a fall like that wouldn’t hurt him, he still didn’t wake up…

But Ling Mo was in a hurry!

Yu Shiran pouted unhappily. It was one thing to babysit a mutation beast, but now humans were being thrown at her too…

“He’s not a mental ability user. What’s to stop him from stabbing me in the back? Right now, he’s just like you-only good at betraying teammates.” Ling Mo said, not waiting for Yu Shiran to argue any further. With a “bang,” he closed the door.

Then he stood in the Corridor, his eyes briefly glancing at the nearby Restroom.

“You’re breeding Zombies…”

Ling Mo’s mind steeled, and the Little Zombie Puppet had already crouched directly beneath the psychic light cluster.

At this level, whether it was a Zombie or a mutation beast, they both had higher intelligence. Ling Mo couldn’t reveal his abilities right away.

After calculating the angle, the Little Zombie Puppet pushed off the ground silently, its fingers piercing into the Ceiling above.

Due to the precise control of force, the Puppet’s fingers penetrated the ceiling panel without making much noise.

None of the Zombies in the distance noticed what was happening here.

“Damn it, I missed!”

Ling Mo had misjudged the actual distance. Understandable, considering the creature was inside the Ceiling…

However, the movement did seem to affect it as the psychic light cluster suddenly fluctuated.

“Run!”

As soon as Ling Mo saw it move, he immediately controlled the Zombie Puppet to turn and dash towards the staircase.

Simultaneously, the Puppet’s other hand opened, revealing a piece of Gel.

This Gel might not be enough to attract the attention of frenzied Zombies but should elevate the importance of the Puppet in the Monster’s eyes…

If the initial strike had hit, the Gel wouldn’t be necessary.

Sure enough, the peculiar Low-Level Zombie piqued the Monster’s interest, and the psychic light cluster rapidly approached.

At this moment, Ling Mo couldn’t afford to continue probing the creature. His full attention was focused on controlling the Little Zombie Puppet.

The Puppet’s speed was pushed to the limit, with its muscles on the verge of tearing, yet a chill suddenly grazed past its head!

Ling Mo instinctively controlled the Puppet to duck, narrowly avoiding disaster.

Thank goodness the Puppet is short…

In this dimly lit space, Ling Mo didn’t dare look back to see what kind of Monster was chasing him from the Ceiling.

Yet, the relentless “click, click” sounds above were enough to make his scalp tingle!

Fortunately, the other Zombies weren’t following.

“Just as I thought, the rampage virus scent it emits doesn’t expose it, but rather protects it, just waiting safely to reap the rewards… This Monster really has some tricks…”

Swish!

Another gust of wind assaulted from behind. Although Ling Mo ducked in time, he felt as if something was missing from the top of his head.

He reached up and touched, his heart pounding.

Part of his Hair was gone…

A close call!

The Little Zombie Puppet’s full potential exploded in that instant. Just ten meters to the Iron Door!

But the Iron Door was only half-open. Even if the Puppet squeezed through, the Monster behind would crash it open, making enough noise to alert the Zombies…

Five meters!

One meter!

Just as the Puppet was about to collide with the door, it bizarrely pulled open from behind!

That Tentacle that had extended earlier came into play.

Whoosh!

The moment the Puppet dashed through the door, Ling Mo felt a ripping sensation from behind.

It got injured!

What shocked Ling Mo even more was that although it wasn’t a fatal wound, the Puppet’s rebellious consciousness suddenly surged, almost breaking free of his control.

“The rampage virus…” Ling Mo’s heart sank. So it doesn’t just spread through the air!

“I thought it was just a Production Machine…”

Fighting through a slight dizziness, Ling Mo controlled the Little Zombie Puppet to rush directly towards his position.
