Chapter 668: Practice the Fusion Technique Well
The hunting session had come to an end, and Ling Mo gathered all the Gel into one place, nearly filling half a ziplock bag.
He shook the heavy bag and, staring at the female Zombies with red glowing eyes, said, “So… shall we distribute these?”
The female Zombies almost simultaneously licked their lips and nodded in unison, “Okay…”
Distributing the Gel was no easy task. It required constant vigilance to prevent them from pouncing suddenly and also needed to be allocated based on the current strength of each Zombie.
Before starting the distribution, Ling Mo glanced at Yu s.h.i.+ran with some hesitation.
This Zombie Loli, whose drool was almost dripping onto her chest, was initially stunned but then shouted in realization, “Don’t exclude me! I’m Black Silk’s symbiote! My evolution is Black Silk’s evolution!”
“Eh, suddenly your IQ is online?” Xia Na snorted, clearly unimpressed.
Yu s.h.i.+ran immediately went berserk, but due to Black Silk’s absolute obedience to Xia Na, as the symbiote, all she could do was stomp her feet in frustration, “I heard that!”
“Alright, stop arguing,” Ling Mo said, pressing down on Yu s.h.i.+ran’s head with a headache, “Let’s distribute it fairly… sigh…”
“Sigh what? Isn’t this how it should be? No need for under-the-table rules at a time like this…” Yu s.h.i.+ran continued to grumble discontentedly.
Although Ling Mo’s thoughts weren’t exactly what she imagined, he had indeed considered giving her a smaller share for a moment. She and Black Silk were now one ent.i.ty, and their combined combat power was far more than just the sum of its parts.
Instead of seeking evolution, it would be better to maximize the abilities of her fusion with Black Silk.
However, thinking it over, there was no reason to leave Yu s.h.i.+ran and Black Silk out.
Based on Ling Mo’s current experience, evolving from Leader-Level to dominant level required not just the acc.u.mulation of Virus within the body but also an opportunity…
Not all Leader-Level Zombies could successfully break through to the dominant level before becoming stepping stones for others of their kind.
However, wild Zombies have a natural advantage in evolution, yet they also possess an absolute disadvantage. The cause for both outcomes is the same: the harsh environment.
Not being as fast as other Zombies, lacking the innate talent of others, inevitably leads to elimination.
This is a battlefield where evolution is driven purely by instinct…
Therefore, Ling Mo felt that with his presence, Ye Lian and the others would eventually break through this barrier.
Moreover, his Psychic Power was now ready.
He was capable of using his Psychic Power to control a dominant level Zombie…
“Practice the Fusion Technique more,” Ling Mo said, rubbing Yu s.h.i.+ran’s head.
Yu s.h.i.+ran widened her eyes, thought for a moment, and then glanced at Li Yalin. Finally, she nodded with a mix of understanding and confusion and asked, “Will that really work? Sausage…”
“Are you already shortening my name to Sausage…”
Ling Mo pressed his fingers to his temples and affirmed, “Of course it will work. Once you master the Fusion Technique, your strength will more than double. When I have time, I can guide you.”
“Guide… guide me?” Yu s.h.i.+ran’s eyes widened even further.
A few seconds later, she responded somewhat dazedly, “If… if that’s the case, then okay… I guess.”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but sneak glances at Li Yalin and Xia Na, finally rubbing her fingers together, “Fusion Technique, huh…”
Ling Mo’s attention had already returned to distributing the Virus Gel. The thought of potentially witnessing their evolution soon made him somewhat excited.
But more than that, he felt a nervous unease… What if nothing happened?
He specifically glanced at the two dominant level mother hives in the bag. If even these couldn’t push them past the barrier, he would have to consider targeting the “enhanced zombie.”
“High-risk level… I wonder how powerful it truly is to warrant such attention from the Air Force Corps…”
Ling Mo, momentarily lost in thought, quickly snapped back to attention. He handed a counted portion of Gel to Ye Lian. “Here.”
When Ye Lian extended both hands to receive it, he took out the dominant level mother hive. His Psychic Tentacle condensed into a thin thread and sliced through his palm.
The dominant level mother hive, lying quietly in his hand, silently split into two halves.
As he handed one half to Ye Lian, Ling Mo gazed into her deep, dark eyes. He then gently touched her cheek, his fingers sliding down the smooth curve of her neck, finally resting on her delicate collarbone.
“Don’t push yourself too hard,” Ling Mo said, pulling her closer by the back of her neck and kissing her smooth forehead.
Ye Lian’s large eyes blinked as she gave a dazed smile.
Li Yalin immediately raised her hand. “I want one too!”
“Alright, alright…” Ling Mo, slightly exasperated, reached out.
To his surprise, Senior Sister looked astonished. “I want the Gel!”
“……”
Normally, consuming Gel only served to replenish physical energy.
But consuming a large amount at once would cause a strong reaction in the body due to the Virus.
For these Leader-Level Zombies, the Virus would stimulate their brain’s Virus mother hive more intensely.
In the process of fusion and resistance, the Virus mother hive in the brain would evolve.
However, whether they could break through that critical step was left to chance.
Soon, all the female Zombies were leaning against a wall, looking quite uncomfortable.
Although Ling Mo hadn’t consumed any Gel, his expression was the most pained.
Having them all start evolving at the same time caused a sudden surge in both the mental and physical pressure he had to endure.
Given that he hadn’t fully recovered from the energy expended during Xiao Bai’s recent evolution, he was understandably struggling.
Sweating profusely, Ling Mo sat at the entrance of a temporarily secured shop, his fists clenched.
His palms were sticky with sweat, and the throbbing pain at his temples, combined with the sensation of accelerated blood flow, made his vision blur intermittently.
At a time like this, losing consciousness could mean waking up to find all his Zombie Puppets completely out of control.
So Ling Mo continued to grit his teeth and persevere, his tired eyes remaining open.
Xiao Bai, who had already evolved, lay quietly to the side. Occasionally, it would get up and wobble around, then enthusiastically play its “I’m hiding” game.
Somehow, it seemed to know that it could evade Ling Mo’s other “sight,” so it would sometimes run to a corner to hide.
But Ling Mo remained seated on the old, small stool, showing no intention of looking for it.
“MeGu~”
Xiao Bai lay back down, letting out a soft hum. It lazily drooped its eyelids, occasionally glancing at Ling Mo.
“Hope there won’t be any issues,” Ling Mo couldn’t help but glance back into the room, taking a deep breath. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
His Psychic Power, stimulated, was slowly increasing, and his physical condition seemed to be improving as well.
These reactions indicated that the female Zombies inside were evolving, but the outcome was still uncertain.
In Ling Mo’s view, the ones most likely to break through were Li Yalin and Xia Na, who were already at the late stages of Leader-Level.
After a period of acc.u.mulation, their foundations were solid.
In contrast, Ye Lian, who had more recently advanced to Leader-Level, appeared to be at a disadvantage.
This was why Ling Mo told her not to push herself too hard. In his opinion, it was enough for her to improve as much as possible.
After all, even with a slightly lower level of evolution, her strength wouldn’t be significantly different…
“Roar!”
A dull “bang” suddenly came from one of the rooms, making Ling Mo’s heart skip a beat. He immediately grabbed the door frame and stood up.
The sound continued from other rooms, indicating that they had all entered a berserk state.
In this collective evolution process, it was impossible for Ling Mo to comfort them one by one.
Moreover, this mutual stimulation would make the Virus in their bodies more active, increasing the chances of a breakthrough.
This was something Ling Mo had thought about for a long time, and now was the perfect time to try it.
However, actually implementing it was proving to be quite the ordeal for Ling Mo…
Clenching his fists, Ling Mo watched the doors with a pale face, his eyes filled with anxiety.
