Chapter 1118: Cant Fight, But I Can Spit

Hearing the voice, Ling Mo immediately turned his head and stood in front of Skinny Monkey.

“…Hmm? What are you doing? Could it be… you know perfectly well that you fell into the trap because of him, yet you still want to protect him? Heh, if that’s the case, your abilities may be good, but your brain seems a bit slow. Actually, I’ve studied some of your human theories too. By your standards, this man not only drags down your entire Team, but also puts you in danger. Shouldn’t such a poor Member be eliminated as soon as possible? After all, compared to us Zombies, the internal competition among humans is much fiercer, isn’t it?” the voice continued.

But Ling Mo was now utterly shocked: “How could it be you… Gu Shuangshuang?”

The newcomer heard this and immediately curled her lips, revealing a strange smile: “Can’t it be me? Heh…”

Yes, the shadow that silently appeared behind him was Gu Shuangshuang… Although Ling Mo had already guessed that the one communicating with him via psychic communication might not be the real Gu Shuangshuang, the scene before him was still somewhat unexpected…

Because, the Gu Shuangshuang standing in front of him now looked exactly like the real person… But her eyes, expression, and words had nothing to do with her at all. This reality was far from Ling Mo’s initial guess of “imitation”…

“Heh… You look quite surprised. But your reaction actually makes me a little interested…” “Gu Shuangshuang” smiled again, then stiffly twisted her neck and said, “How much do you know about human psychic power?”

“Not much.” Ling Mo still stared at her, answering briefly.

His sharp gaze made “Gu Shuangshuang” laugh: “Good, as long as you’re willing to answer, it means you still want to talk to me, right? I can see you’re very confused…”

“Cut the crap!” Ling Mo suddenly interrupted her, asking sternly, “What did you do to her?”

“Gu Shuangshuang” was stunned for a moment. But soon, she regained her previous expression and looked at the somewhat disappointed Ling Mo, saying, “You’re quite cunning, suddenly using a psychic attack on me… But I advise you not to do that again. If you accidentally hurt her, that wouldn’t be good… That’s right, she’s still alive.”

“…Peh.” Ling Mo replied with a word, and matched it with the corresponding gesture…

“You…” “Gu Shuangshuang” was stunned again, and the smile on her face finally disappeared. “Why did you suddenly spit? This body still belongs to your companion… Besides, even if I’m controlling her now, she’s still a female… Where’s the humanity you just had? Gone so quickly?”

“Peh!”

“Why won’t you stop! You’re an adult, after all. Even facing an enemy, you shouldn’t do something so childish and shameless…” “Gu Shuangshuang” suddenly jumped up.

Although the Ling Mo in front of her was just a spiritual body… his demeanor and actions were very realistic!

“Peh peh!”

“Are you done yet! We can’t continue talking like this…”

But soon, “Gu Shuangshuang” suddenly calmed down.

She shook her head hard, and after a moment, said faintly, “So you wanted to use this behavior to stimulate the original master’s psychic activity… Not a bad attempt, but unfortunately…”

“Don’t get me wrong, I just wanted to see if she’s really still alive.” Ling Mo instantly returned to his original attitude, saying coldly, “Now I know the answer. If you have something to say, go on.”

“Gu Shuangshuang” was momentarily dumbfounded… It took a full minute before she picked up the previous topic again, and her opening line was actually a repeat: “She’s still alive, so… what do you plan to do now? You should know, even if I’m lying here, you wouldn’t dare lay a hand on me, right?”

“You can try lying down.” Ling Mo replied without thinking.

“… “Gu Shuangshuang” immediately recalled what had just happened…

“So, let’s put these boring threats aside. You’ve seen my current state, but you didn’t react excessively, which means you’ve already thought of a countermeasure. Just say it, I hate beating around the bush with enemies. In fact, if you weren’t hiding in my teammate’s body right now, I would’ve already made a move.” Ling Mo said.

“Heh, you’re quite confident… But…”

“Are you going to talk or not?” Ling Mo interrupted her again with a frown. After seeing the situation with Skinny Monkey and Gu Shuangshuang, Ling Mo’s mood was indeed extremely bad… One nearly died before his eyes, and the other, though standing right in front of him, had her body occupied by the enemy… Nothing could be more infuriating than this. ȓäɴồ₿Еs

Gu Shuangshuang tried several times to say more, but was blocked each time, so she could only say helplessly, “I have to admit, I was planning to ambush you just now, but I didn’t expect you to be like this… This threw my plan way off, and I had to chat with you to figure things out… But human, you really keep surprising me…”

“It’s simple. The terms and method of exchange stay the same. You bring yourself over, and I’ll return your companion,” Gu Shuangshuang said.

“Or, I could just kill you now. At least that way I can save my other companion,” Ling Mo said.

Gu Shuangshuang stared at him for a while, then shook her head. “No, you won’t.”

“One last question…” Ling Mo didn’t deny it, but instead asked, “The one who was talking to me just now wasn’t you?”

Gu Shuangshuang’s expression changed again. She looked at Ling Mo with a complicated look and asked in a low voice, “What do you mean?”

“Heh…” Ling Mo also let out a cold laugh.

…

“What should we do now?” In the corridor, Mu Chen asked with a frown.

Black Silk turned back and said, “About that… No matter what Ling Mo is doing right now, one thing won’t change. That’s the existence of that Zombie Progenitor. So, we just need to find it.”

“They should be able to shield themselves too, right? That way we wouldn’t be able to see them…” Ye Kai speculated.

“That’s true, but do you know how shielding works? Why do we see hallucinations first?” Black Silk smiled and said, “I think that Zombie, he’s hypnotized us.”

“Hypnotized?” Yuwen Xuan immediately showed a look of disbelief.

Zhang Xincheng even pinched himself hard and said, “Doesn’t feel like it…”

“Unless his hypnosis is much deeper…” Xu Shuhan added.

“Yes, a much deeper hypnosis… So, how many times do you think he can hypnotize us? Anyway, let’s keep moving.” After Black Silk finished speaking, she continued upstairs.

Xu Shuhan watched Black Silk’s back, recalling what she had just said… Those guesses about psychic power, and that confident tone, all sounded like words from Ling Mo’s mouth… So the meaning of her last sentence was…

Distract that Zombie Progenitor!

What the Zombie Progenitor wanted was to make them lose their ability to act, isolating Ling Mo. But what Ling Mo planned to do was to use this situation to make the Zombie Progenitor spread itself too thin. Their contest had already begun between them.

This showdown wasn’t just a direct clash between the Zombie Progenitor and Ling Mo; what his teammates could do was also crucial. More importantly, they had to avoid accidentally causing trouble for the unseen Ling Mo… And Black Silk’s repeated hints had already solved this problem.

She was saying she could communicate with Ling Mo, so… they could act boldly without worry…

“Are you still planning to struggle? I advise you to give up. Even though you have numbers, none of them can help you now. Don’t worry, my method of Devour isn’t like yours, so during the time I completely Devour you, you’ll be clear-headed enough to watch all your companions leave. I can even leave this granary to you,” Gu Shuangshuang said, “Anyway, I can’t stay here much longer… Besides, if I were you, I wouldn’t want to keep living either. It’s exhausting, and hard…”

“I don’t feel much relaxed right now either,” Ling Mo rolled his eyes and said.

“No, no, you don’t understand what I mean…” Gu Shuangshuang suddenly showed a strange expression. “Since I woke up, I’ve traveled many places and seen many things… Do you think those changes just happened on their own? That’s this world brewing…”

“You mean… a second disaster?” Ling Mo immediately thought of many things… Hellforged Monsters, all kinds of sudden Zombie nests… more Progenitors, Zombies forming groups…

“Heh, that’s right, you really do know. Of course, you lead those Zombies, so you must know more than other humans. That’s why I urgently need evolution… Only by breaking through again can I stand at the top of all Creatures after the second disaster erupts. Unlike you humans, Zombies have only existed for a year, and they’re about to be eliminated… And you humans, maybe you’ll completely disappear when the next round of elimination begins…” Gu Shuangshuang suddenly leaned in, whispering, “Do you really want to keep struggling in despair? Or, why not take this chance and give up completely… You know in your heart, everything I’m saying is true…”
