Chapter 1167: Specializing in Trapping Our Own People

This guy…

Ling Mo’s tone sounded relaxed, but in reality, his mood was heavy.

Things aren’t looking good…

“The shell is… So, he’s in the same situation as those previous Survivors? All look human on the outside, but inside, they’ve already been controlled by the Spider… But seeing how even their bodies have been modified, I guess Puppet is a more fitting term…”

Ling Mo thought to himself, then spoke up, “You still haven’t answered my question? What, don’t want to talk to me? But from what I see, you must be a bit wary now, since your sneak attack failed… So before you come up with a new plan, why not chat with me for a bit? It’s been a long time since we last met…”

“This guy is so arrogant!” Niepan captain growled in a low voice.

But, it was true…

The huge advantage Liu Yang had secretly built was shattered by a single sentence from Ling Mo. Now that he was on guard, getting close to him wouldn’t be so easy anymore. And worst of all, the fight upstairs wouldn’t last much longer. Once those girls came down and joined up with Ling Mo, killing him would be even harder. Going further, even the captain’s own life would be in danger.

He was a superhuman with mental ability, and what he feared most were those like Xia Na… That terrifying attack power was just like the Monsters he’d seen before…

As for Liu Yang… he couldn’t care less about this guy’s life or death. But it’d be best if he could kill Ling Mo next, and then hold off Xia Na and the others… That would be the most desirable outcome for the Niepan captain.

“Fine, what do you want to say.” Liu Yang considered for a moment. He actually agreed.

The Niepan captain immediately frowned… This was not the situation he wanted to see…

“Answer my question first,” Ling Mo said.

“This Ling Mo… talking like that. He’ll probably piss off Liu Yang soon? Liu Yang isn’t stupid. How could he just obey like that…” Niepan captain muttered.

“From what you’re saying, you must have seen others too? Fine, I can explain it to you,” Liu Yang said.

“…” The Niepan captain almost choked on his own saliva when he heard that.

There really was someone so obedient… The enemy asks, he answers…

But as soon as Liu Yang started talking, the Niepan captain froze…

He couldn’t hear clearly anymore…

He knew Liu Yang was speaking, could hear the sound, but just couldn’t make out the words.

It felt like listening to a warped cassette tape, not only uncomfortable but also very strange.

But the Niepan captain quickly realized, it was Wen Xiaoyu at work…

Before this, he hadn’t really known what kind of powerful abilities Wen Xiaoyu had. But only today did he realize this woman was anything but ordinary. ṛÄＮО𝐛˧

Powerful abilities, extremely precise control… She was even the main force behind the entire Shielding Net.

The scariest thing was… the Niepan captain still hadn’t figured out how she could use her ability on such a large scale…

“What’s going on? Wen Xiaoyu, what do you mean by this! Why are you shielding me!”

But angry as he was, the Niepan captain could only swallow his anger and stand there. He hadn’t expected Wen Xiaoyu to never risk drawing her attention to shield Ling Mo before, but now she was using it… And the target she was shielding was actually him, the captain…

“Hey! There are more weak points now!” Black Silk, who was busy trading insults with Yu Shiran, suddenly paused and exclaimed in delight.

“You didn’t even grow your dog ears in the right place… Wait, what do you mean?” Yu Shiran asked in confusion.

“So… that weak point from before might have expanded too! Fool, hurry back, maybe you can lead them to a spot!” Black Silk called back.

Though they’d already taken the initiative, and it was unlikely the enemy would send anyone else, Black Silk never missed a chance to lower risk when she could…

But right after, the excitement vanished from Black Silk’s face…

“The other side knows we might exploit this, but still took such a big risk… Why? Did something happen to master’s side…”

…

“Tsk, you really went all out.” Ling Mo immediately understood as soon as Liu Yang spoke. Their conversation from here on out probably couldn’t be overheard by that human…

“Because I don’t want to kill him yet… But he’s disappointed me. I actually had hopes for him. As a fellow mental ability user, he should have been able to drain you a lot. Too bad, I was wrong. As expected… even if humans act with strong desire, they still shrink back when facing death. Those who truly fight to the death are always few. Maybe… that’s why Zombies were created to replace you humans,” Liu Yang said.

“But aren’t you still obsessed with human bodies? I’m really curious… Logically, your biggest hunting targets aren’t humans anymore, right? Humans now are more like a struggling third party, neither threatening nor noticeable…” His words were a bit helpless, but that was the reality. In the past, walking in the city, you’d soon run into a group of Survivors, but now… those who haven’t found a Camp are probably all dead…

Liu Yang showed a hint of surprise, then returned to his poker face and continued, “Looks like you really do understand the situation… But you still don’t know enough. Not surprising, you’re human, you can’t wander around like us. Of course, I only know this much because I’ve become what I am now.”

Become what he is now? Ling Mo immediately tensed up… He was curious, but more importantly, he wanted to figure out the Spider’s current strength! After all, everything else was far off, but this Spider… was directly tied to his own life, and Ye Lian’s evolution!

“Humans are the weakest… But you’re right, we fight even harder with these newly emerged Creatures. Maybe because of that, our internal competition has actually decreased a lot. But humans taste the best, there’s always a reason for that,” Liu Yang said, “I’ve evolved to what I am now… but the flaws have only become more obvious.”

“Flaws…” Ling Mo was startled, feeling he’d vaguely guessed something.

“That’s right… Not just us, I think, another kind of Creature… We call them dark creatures… They must have felt it too…”
