Chapter 700: Jump Up and Give You a Karate Chop
Regardless of whether the opponent can kill directly through an Illusion, this place is full of dangers…
“So vicious…” Ling Mo frowned.
There’s no time to waste; I absolutely can’t let this person succeed!
“This Superpower is indeed formidable, but you picked the wrong target…”
Once he confirmed that Little Zombie Puppet still retained some basic instincts, Ling Mo called her back, made some preparations, and then attached a small piece of virus gel to his psychic tentacle.
After everything was ready, he moved aside and decisively cut off the psychic link.
Cutting off the psychic link voluntarily wouldn’t cause him any mental damage.
However, after the link was severed, he could no longer Sense the existence of Little Zombie Puppet.
At this moment, although Little Zombie Puppet was weak, her instincts were still there, and she would definitely attack any human she saw.
But even if Ling Mo couldn’t see her, he had the ability to protect himself, not to mention the virus gel serving as a decoy.
While Ling Mo’s scent might drive Zombies crazy, the piece of gel was still more eye-catching than him.
Ling Mo was still trapped in a hallucination, with everything around him shrouded in darkness; no one knew what might suddenly emerge from this blackness.
It was possible that he wouldn’t even see an attack coming.
Ling Mo focused all his attention on that piece of gel… Little Zombie Puppet was just less than three meters away from him moments ago. Even if his judgment was off, during the brief moment when he cut off, Ling Mo could still see himself through Little Zombie Puppet’s vision.
And in that fleeting one-tenth of a second, Little Zombie Puppet had actually broken free from the a.s.sociated influence.
Thus, the accuracy was one hundred percent…
The feeling of waiting was quite peculiar. Knowing there was a Zombie right in front of him, yet seeing nothing and having no idea when she would suddenly attack.
If it were any ordinary Survivor in this situation, the psychological pressure alone would probably drive them insane, let alone maintaining absolute calm.
“Hurry up…”
Ling Mo was still feeling anxious. He had completely Controlled Little Zombie Puppet earlier, and such forced mental input would certainly cause her some harm. Over time, a common zombie like her would sustain serious damage.
The Puppet Control Superpower, fundamentally, manipulates puppets…
Ling Mo’s method of retaining the self-awareness of Zombie Puppets and allowing them to work in harmony with him was already beyond the basic rules of Puppet Control Superpower…
“Could it be that she hasn’t recovered yet? The Control time wasn’t that long…” Ling Mo grew increasingly restless. If this failed, he would have to think of another plan.
At that moment, he suddenly felt a chill crawl up from under his feet.
“Coming!”
The Tentacle was more sensitive than he was, and as a gust of wind approached, the danger signal was instantly transmitted through the Tentacle to Ling Mo.
After all, the Tentacle was purely mental energy, highly responsive to the approach of external energies…
Without hesitation, Ling Mo focused his mind, and the Tentacle hooked onto the gel and quickly moved forward.
Simultaneously, Ling Mo jumped and followed closely behind.
His Tentacle was skimming the ground, ensuring it wouldn’t hurt anyone…
While the opponent could create hallucinations, they couldn’t make him walk on the Ceiling…
He wasn’t capable of that, and hallucinations couldn’t defy gravity…
The continuous danger signals indicated that Little Zombie Puppet was tightly pursuing the gel.
Running behind, Ling Mo already had a second piece of gel in hand. He couldn’t be sure if he was running in a straight line.
However, since Little Zombie Puppet hadn’t collided with him, it meant the Tentacle wasn’t circling him; instead, it was presumably moving in unpredictable paths.
If a piece of gel circled around a person, Little Zombie Puppet would have double-killed by now…
That would just be teasing her.
Ling Mo was constantly on guard for her potential attacks, but fortunately, that situation hadn’t occurred.
Without a guide, following the Tentacle like this, who knows if Ling Mo was running in circles or back and forth…
“Bang!”
The gel was intercepted for the first time, indicating that it might have circled back; otherwise, with the Tentacle’s speed, Little Zombie Puppet wouldn’t have caught up.
But no worries, Ling Mo had plenty of gels…
During the last evolution, he didn’t consume everything thoroughly. Some freshly condensed sc.r.a.ps were carried in his pocket. Using gel to attract Zombies was his favorite method, far safer than gadgets like music players. The downside was that it attracted a whole bunch, but in such situations, there were always other subst.i.tutes.
However, no other Survivor would use his method—who would dig into Zombie brains for fun?
In reality, if the opponent realized this, they would quickly try to pull Little Zombie Puppet into the Illusion as well.
But the problem is… Little Zombie Puppet had just broken free from Ling Mo’s Control, her thoughts were chaotic, and she only operated on instinct.
On the other hand, before cutting off the link, Ling Mo made her cover her eyes and block her ears, leaving only her sense of smell.
Even though her sense of smell could be misled, it would definitely buy some time!
“Hurry up…”
After tossing out three gels in a row, Ling Mo started to get agitated.
If this dragged on, it would indeed give the opponent time to react!
“Clang!”
The third Tentacle was intercepted, and immediately the fourth…
Finally, the fourth one wasn’t caught!
Ling Mo’s vision suddenly cleared up, and when he looked back, he found himself standing at the staircase entrance.
Little Zombie Puppet was lunging forward, so Ling Mo Controlled her again.
However, this time, Ling Mo was stunned for a moment because, for some reason, Little Zombie Puppet’s instinctive resistance was particularly strong and extremely frenzied…
Damage to the psychic light cl.u.s.ter usually made Ling Mo’s Control easier; when did it start having the opposite effect?
“No matter, let’s find them first…”
Escaping the Illusion was just the first step. Next, he needed to get Mu Chen and Yu s.h.i.+ran out, or else they might end up killing each other.
With experience on his side, after sending Little Zombie Puppet forward, Ling Mo stood his ground.
This way, as long as he wasn’t affected by hallucinations, Little Zombie Puppet wouldn’t face any issues.
Not long after making a turn, Ling Mo saw Mu Chen. The guy was going in and out of a warehouse, looking as if he was possessed.
Little Zombie Puppet slowly approached him, and even when she stood right in front of him, Mu Chen didn’t seem to notice her at all. He looked anxious, as if he was hiding from something.
Watching him spin in circles while glancing around was both bizarre and amusing…
Thankfully, he wasn’t injured, which allowed Ling Mo to breathe a sigh of relief.
The injured one must be that superhuman…
Ling Mo decided to experiment a bit and had Little Zombie Puppet tug on Mu Chen’s sleeve.
Mu Chen immediately froze, his expression akin to seeing a ghost.
He nervously glanced around and then took two steps back before starting to run.
However, his fleeing area was actually limited to a s.p.a.ce of less than twenty meters.
To think that he still didn’t realize something was wrong…
“Impressive…”
Ling Mo rubbed his nose and thought to himself.
To avoid alerting the Zombies, they always lowered their volume when making sounds. Even when greatly startled, someone like Mu Chen would maintain silence.
If it were Xu Shuhan here, the people left in the Mall might have heard her screams.
During a transformation, emotions are easily uncontrollable…
Such a reaction might bring rescue, but the Zombies downstairs would surely be drawn out too.
Little Zombie Puppet approached and knocked on the door frame, but Mu Chen didn’t react.
“So, his vision and hearing are both compromised…”
After several more tests, Ling Mo confirmed it was almost full-scale Interference.
It seemed Little Zombie Puppet’s ability to avoid being affected was due to her damaged mental state.
“However… should I knock him out and drag him out?”
Ling Mo pondered while stroking his chin.
But just then, Mu Chen suddenly stopped.
The determined and resolute look on his face made Ling Mo realize something was wrong.
Sure enough, Mu Chen quickly raised the knife in his hand.
At that moment, he looked up and stared “ahead.”
“He’s probably being lured to fight Yu s.h.i.+ran to the death…”
Ling Mo thought.
Perfect, I’ll bring Yu s.h.i.+ran out as well.
Sure enough, Mu Chen emerged, brandis.h.i.+ng his knife menacingly. At the same time, another person appeared from a different room.
Yu s.h.i.+ran…
However, Mu Chen didn’t see Yu s.h.i.+ran at all; otherwise, her red eyes would have scared him half to death.
It was as if neither of them could see the other, but each of them saw a phantom, ready to strike.
But just then, Mu Chen was suddenly hit on the back of the head with a karate chop from above.
Ling Mo had originally thought that Yu s.h.i.+ran would attack, but she had just started to move when she suddenly closed her eyes.
When she opened them again, something about her seemed different.
She looked mechanical like a robot, but her movements were very autonomous.
She turned around, pulled up a silver thread, examined it, and muttered to herself, “It’s barely two meters wide, and we’re still in the Corridor.”
Then she took a few more steps forward, but her movements deviated slightly.
This zombie Loli, facing the wall at an angle, said in a robotic tone, “Hehehe, come on, hit me…”
