Chapter 1056: The Invisible Ambusher

Waiting often feels interminable…

After half an hour had slowly passed, a faint sound finally emerged from the corridor…

Creak… creak… The sound was so subtle, at first it seemed like someone stepping on a wooden floor, but upon closer listening, it was impossible to pinpoint the exact location… It was as if the entire building suddenly began to resonate, emitting a series of soft “crackling” sounds from inside out…

“It’s here…” Ye Lian was the first to speak.

Then Li Yalin sniffed the air and said, “It seems like something is approaching…”

“Everyone get ready…”

Ling Mo cautiously contracted his sensing circle to avoid alerting the enemy.

The three Female Zombies almost simultaneously looked towards the door, with Xia Na, who was closest to the door, raising her Scythe, ready to burst through at any moment. With their strength, they could easily rush into the corridor in less than a tenth of a second and complete the encirclement with Ling Mo’s puppet, Xiao Hei.

However, at that moment, an unexpected event occurred.

“Damn!”

Ling Mo suddenly furrowed his brows and said.

Just then, the door emitted a muffled “bang,” and Ling Mo abruptly waved his hands.

But his “resistance” was still too late; a series of powerful footsteps suddenly appeared in the corridor and vanished after just a few steps.

By this time, Ye Lian and the others had already rushed out, but apart from the pillow torn to shreds, the entire corridor was completely empty…

Not to mention the Ambusher, they couldn’t even see its shadow…

“This…” The Female Zombies were encountering such a situation for the first time. No matter how fast the opponent was, how could this happen? They were, after all, a King level Zombie and two Leader-Level Zombies…

“Ling-Ge, what’s going on…”

As soon as Xia Na asked, Ling Mo chased out from the room, his face pale, and whispered, “It’s okay, I’m following…”

“Following?” Li Yalin glanced at the ground, picked up a piece of torn fabric, and asked, “Ling Mo, what exactly is this?”

“Do you know why we can’t capture their movements?” Ling Mo wiped his forehead and asked.

“We didn’t sense anything at all…”

“I thought they were about to act.”

Ling Mo nodded and said, “Exactly! What they’ve done is merely to distract us. Xia Na is right; their intelligence is high… But most importantly, we misjudged their true nature…” ʀÀΝȮ𝔟Ɛṡ

“True nature? Isn’t it some kind of Monster? Maybe it’s a variation of some Monster…” Xia Na speculated.

Ling Mo shook his head and said, “No… It’s likely not a Monster at all, but another type of Creature completely unrelated to humans… Though in the heat of the moment, I couldn’t see clearly. Even with a change in perspective, all I can see now is a mass of darkness…”

“A mass of darkness…” Xia Na slightly furrowed her brows.

Without time to think further, Ling Mo had already turned and ran downstairs: “No matter what, Xiao Hei is entangled with them, let’s chase after them now!”

“That Zhang She…” Seeing the state of the pillow, everyone already had an answer in their hearts.

But what kind of Creature could tear a target to pieces in an instant?

Moreover, if it was a completely non-human Creature… how could it possess such high intelligence?

These questions were not only on Xia Na’s mind but clearly on Ling Mo’s as well.

However, he had more pressing matters at hand… and that was to chase them down with all his might!

“Damn, they’re fast!” Ling Mo shouted as he rushed down the stairs.

At this rate, the opponent might shake off his puppet…

“Ling-Ge, I’ll… I’ll take you…” Ye Lian came up from behind, grabbed Ling Mo.

As they rushed out of the small building, their expressions were somewhat stiff…

Gone… The entire open space was devoid of any other presence besides their own.

Even Zhang Xincheng and the others still had looks of astonishment on their faces, clearly unaware of the anomaly at the small building…

This meant they had encountered the ambush silently, and the Ambusher had vanished right under everyone’s noses…

“Ling-Ge…” Xia Na paused for a moment, then quickly looked at Ling Mo.

Ling Mo was frowning, sensing carefully, then raised his hand to point outside: “They went outside!”

“Outside? But here… there’s no one…” Li Yalin whispered.

Even in the direction Ling Mo pointed, it was still an empty expanse, devoid of any movement…

Despite their doubts, the four of them quickly rushed forward.

As they passed by Black Silk’s group, Ling Mo quickly communicated through the psychic link: “Don’t follow, guard this place!”

Many of them had already stood up, but were stopped by Black Silk at that moment.

“Don’t cause trouble…”

Xu Shuhan stared dumbfounded at their backs and asked, “Do you know… what they’re chasing?”

“No idea.” Black Silk shook her head, “Precisely because we don’t know, you can’t go.”

“That’s right… Guard well. At least until they return, keep the Camp safe.” Yuwen Xuan rarely showed a serious expression, looking towards the door as he spoke.

Mu Chen moved his lips but ultimately waved his hand: “Everyone… gather together. Until Ling Mo and the others return, not a single person should be missing.”

…

Whoosh whoosh!

The Female Zombies’ speed reached its peak at this moment, and after running out of a street, a giant white shadow suddenly leaped out from the side.

“MeGu!”

Ling Mo’s vision blurred, and in the next second, he was already on the back of the mutation panda.

He grabbed the long fur of the mutation panda and looked ahead.

Compared to the agile and nimble Zombies, Xiao Bai’s running seemed more straightforward… but in terms of speed, it was not lacking at all.

“Huh? Why are you here…” Ling Mo was about to ask when he realized that after days of not seeing it, Xiao Bai’s mood seemed only filled with excitement… It ran forward wildly, calling out excitedly, and occasionally leaping high, landing lightly with Ling Mo several meters away.

“Speaking of which… you seem to have shrunk!”

Ling Mo quickly noticed Xiao Bai’s change… Its body was noticeably smaller than usual, indicating that after the sewer incident, it had reached the brink of another evolution…

In the blink of an eye, Ling Mo and his group had already rushed out several streets… and in the process, they were getting closer to the center of Dawn Town…
