Chapter 486 – Consider paying off the debts with your body?

Editor: Zephyr04 Translator: Jhung

After the battle finished, Ling Mo and his team stayed in the area for another two days.

During this period, Lucy, who had followed Ye Lian and the girls to collect supplies, wanted to ask Ling Mo about the battle more than once.

Neither she, nor Ye Lian and the other two girls took part in the battle against Li Hao and his team.

She thought it would have been a fierce battle, but didn’t expect for it to end so easily.

After the battle was over, Ling Mo seemed to be even more energetic than before, but he didn’t mention a word about what happened in the fight.

This made Lucy involuntarily make all kinds of assumptions. But no matter how she used her imagination, she would’ve never imagined that the captain who organized this hunting operation would be following their team at this time...

Li Hao, who looked no different from a regular person, was now following behind them next to the mutant panda Xiao Bai with two big black circles under his eyes.

The two watched each other as they traveled side-by-side. Xiao Bai would pounce on the zombies that suddenly appeared from time to time, and then “Li Hao” would grab its ridiculously small tail and yank it away from the zombie corpse.

After a long stalemate between the two, they both collapsed simultaneously.

Although Xiao Bai was always staring at this young zombie unkindly, it also understood very clearly that this corpse who didn’t seem to resemble its original owner at all was in fact Ling Mo’s consciousness right now.

With this corpse puppet, Ling Mo intended to increase Xiao Bia’s IQ, while trying to strengthen the synchronization between himself and the corpse puppet.

After all, controlling this corpse wasn’t the same as Old Tang’s. For Old Tang’s corpse, he had to directly pour a bit of the Spider Queen’s blood to complete the mutation in a very short period. But because of this, he had to beat Old Tang’s head into a pig’s head to fool Li Hao and the others in a very nervous situation.

But relying on Zombie Li Hao to complete Ling Mo’s plan wasn’t going to be that simple.

Like Ling Mo said, facing Li Hao and his team alone wasn’t much different than facing other ordinary survivors.

It’s just that they had better weapons and equipment. Their information was also slightly more sufficient.

But facing the Air Force Regiment was equivalent to confronting hundreds of survivors. This problem isn’t something an individual force alone can destroy.

There was a giant difference in power. Could an ant kill an elephant?

Ling Mo didn’t know the answer , but he was going to find out.

Even if biting the elephant to death was not possible, he would try his best to bite the elephant until it was full of holes and scars.

....

“Are these the javelins you found?”

Inside their temporary residence, Ling Mo took an iron pipe from Lucy. He held it in his hand and weighed it.

“Not all of them are like this, but the majority of them are of this length. The quality also isn’t the same, but it’s enough to use for short-term battles.” After Lucy finished speaking, she finally couldn’t help ask, “Speaking of which, what happened during the Air Force Regiment’s pursuit? You only brought Yu Shi Ran with you. Could it be that there weren’t any problems? And did your plans get revealed?”

“These javelins are pretty good. Were you also able to find any kitchen knives or something?” Ling Mo asked, then smiled at Lucy, “The reason why they were able to cause any trouble last time was because they ambushed us. But I am not that easy to deal with when the roles are reversed. As for my plans getting exposed... I only found one that had a communication device on them, which I destroyed in advance.”

There were also some other things that Ling Mo didn’t mention... Although on the surface, he only brought Yu Shi Ran with him. In reality, in addition to the nearly 20 corpse puppets he controlled, there was also mutant panda Xiao Bai. With the addition of Hei Si, two high-level mutant beasts were moving with him in total.

Although Yu Shi Ran was small, she was a zombie leader and had great battle strength.

They had even turned an open battlefield into an underground one and were able to ambush Li Hao and his group. A line-up like this was more than enough.

If this still wasn’t enough to defeat Li Hao and his group, then they should just run away as soon as possible. They shouldn’t even be thinking about fighting the Air Force Regiment.

Lucy turned around and dragged a backpack over. After opening it, she showed the various rusty weapons in it to Ling Mo, “Only these. It was difficult to find weapons in such a short time. Even these were found quickly only because of Ye Lian and the girls. They sure are amazing. I feel ashamed for being inferior.”

Saying this, she looked back at Ye Lian and the girls. She sighed worriedly and asked, “Two days have passed. The Air Force Regiment should know by now that their pursuit has failed, right? If this is the case, will they continue sending more people out?

“These knives are fine. Chopping things off might not be easy, but slitting throats should be okay.”

Ling Mo took out a rusty knife and inspected it. He then threw the rusty knife back into the backpack and said, “They don’t need to send more people...” He raised his head and suddenly showed a smile, “I’ll visit them in person.”

Although she was mentally prepared, when she heard Ling Mo say this, she still felt as if her heartbeat had paused for a moment, “Are you sure about this? But that funny.... I mean your helper haven’t arrived yet!”

“You were obviously just about to say that funny guy! Don’t worry, they’ll be there, but not now.”

Ling Mo’s smile looked confident, “Just stick to the plan.”

“You make it sound so simple...”

Lucy looked at Ling Mo, and her mood suddenly became a little complicated.

This operation was obviously dangerous. There was a high possibility that they would be buried at the Air Force Regiment this time, yet how can he still be so calm?

However, Lucy also had to admit that Ling Mo’s attitude also relieved her a little bit to a certain extent.

She lowered her head and glanced at her hands. Under the fingerless leather gloves were a pair of hands that seemed quite normal, but Lucy could feel a strong force rushing through her veins. As she slowly gathered her fingers into a fist, her bones seemed to make a slight cracking sound at this moment.

“Although the speed of mutation is slow-moving, it does have a reforming effect on the body. Who knows when it will start to erode my brain... Could the zombie virus have undergone a new mutation? But even if I think about it, it won’t help change the situation....”

Lucy glanced at Ling Mo, and an idea suddenly popped into her mind.

She practically blurted out, “If we’re still alive after this, can you do me a favor?”

“Uh....”

“Can you send me back to the FIRE base? Once we are back, I’ll give you that secret reward that I promised you. As for this battle with the Air Force Regiment, I will try my best. Just treat it as another kind of reward that I paid you in advance, okay?”

But after speaking this, she felt a little embarrassed.

The only reason why Ling Mo incurred hatred from the Air Force Regiment in the first place was because of the transaction between her and Ling Mo...

Of course, with his personality, Ling Mo wasn’t the type to look for such reasons in others, but Lucy herself thought so.

In this way, she would also feel justified in helping Ling Mo fight against the Air Force Regiment...

“I.... I really have nothing else to offer you.”

Lucy’s face was slightly flushed. It was rare to see her like this. “Forget it, just pretend I didn’t say anything. However, you should still remember my last sentence. If you die, you can forget about that secret reward!”

After she finished speaking, she stood up abruptly, “I... I’ll go and pack things first.”

Ling Mo kept staring at Lucy until the violent iceberg of a woman couldn’t take it anymore and rushed towards the door in a panic. It wasn’t until she had hit the doorframe when he replied, “Okay.”

“Huh?” Lucy turned her head, clutching it. The embarrassment on her face instantly turned into surprise, “Wh... What?”

“I said okay to the favor. I will help you. As for the reward....”

Ling Mo kicked the backpack on the ground and said, “These javelins and weapons are enough.”

“Real... Really?” Lucy couldn’t react for a while. “Why did this guy who always only looked for benefits suddenly change his attitude?”

“Hiss...” Ling Mo squeezed his chin, showing a very embarrassed look, “If you still feel like it’s not enough, you can consider paying off the debt with your body.... OWW! My head!”
