My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 582 – A Terrifying New World

Ye Kai’s behavior, to put it bluntly, was akin to seeking abuse.

Each time Ling Mo tormented him, Ye Kai trained even harder, only to seek out Ling Mo again the next day.

But after a few encounters, Ye Kai realized that Ling Mo had begun to avoid him…

If it were merely sparring, that would be one thing, but Ye Kai was relentlessly persistent.

Knocked down time and again, he’d shout “Let’s go again!” with fire in his eyes and charge forward.

It got to the point where Ling Mo found it difficult to bring himself to continue the beatings…

However, today, Ling Mo took the initiative to approach Ye Kai.

“Come on, I’ll spar with you one more time,” Ling Mo said, twisting his wrists.

Ye Kai, instead of rushing into the fray, looked at Ling Mo with a puzzled expression and suddenly asked, “Are you leaving?”

“Yes,” Ling Mo didn’t deny it.

Though Ye Kai seemed like a glutton for punishment, he was actually quite perceptive; it wasn’t surprising he had guessed this.

When Ling Mo had previously asked him to bring the other three to invite Ye Shuhan and Xia Zhi, he had vaguely sensed that Ye Kai had picked up on something.

However, Ye Kai knew when to hold back. Without Ling Mo saying anything, he wouldn’t ask, nor would he mention it to anyone else.

“When?” Ye Kai asked again.

“In a day or two,” Ling Mo replied. He had already spent enough time with Team F, having nearly done all that needed doing and resolving what had to be resolved.

Once he left, Mu Chen and the others would also disappear from Team F.

Before departing, it was only natural for him to take special care of the team he had just finished building.

After hearing Ling Mo’s words, Ye Kai fell silent for a while, then drew two knives, his gaze suddenly serious: “Let’s fight.”

“This time, I’ll go all out,” Ling Mo suddenly declared.

Ye Kai was momentarily stunned, and before he could react, a dizzying sensation suddenly came over him.

Not good!

Realizing the danger, Ye Kai moved both hands at once, the blades forming a protective barrier around him.

“It’s useless,” Ling Mo’s mental speed was much faster than Ye Kai’s hands. Several mental tentacles pierced through the knife light and accurately grasped Ye Kai’s wrists.

Ye Kai only felt a sudden pain in his wrists, and both knives flew out of his hands involuntarily.

“Ah!”

Just as he struggled, he suddenly lost balance underfoot, and to his shock, he found himself hanging upside down.

One second…

It was only then that Ye Kai recovered from the initial dizziness.

The most terrifying part was that he had no idea what had happened; in a blink, he found himself suspended in the air.

Looking back at Ling Mo, he was still standing in the same spot, unmoved…

“This is…” Ye Kai was struck by realization as he finally understood what Ling Mo meant by going all out.

It turned out Ling Mo had never been serious before!

Thinking back on how he’d been completely overpowered each time they sparred, now without even a chance to fight back, Ye Kai couldn’t help but let tears stream down his face.

The gap between them was too vast, even more than he had imagined!

With a “plop,” Ling Mo let him down, and Ye Kai, still in a daze, collapsed onto the ground, looking utterly disheveled.

He tried to pick himself up, dispirited, but suddenly saw a hand extended towards him.

“Give it up,” Ling Mo said.

“…You win, but I won’t concede,” Ye Kai said dejectedly.

“Only when you realize you’ve lost can you see the gap clearly. Fighting blindly like this is useless,” Ling Mo spoke earnestly. “Special abilities are something you have to explore step by step. Pushing yourself to the limit has its limitations; it’s better to thoroughly understand and accumulate changes in your abilities.”

Ling Mo was speaking from experience. When it came to effort, how many psychics could match his own dedication to training mental power day and night?

Ye Kai was similar to him in this aspect; they both had the desire to become stronger, yet neither had an overwhelmingly strong special ability right from the start.

However, Ling Mo always believed that even the weakest special abilities could be harnessed to unleash tremendous energy. It all depended on how the psychic would explore and utilize it.

Upon hearing Ling Mo’s words, Ye Kai was momentarily taken aback.

He suddenly realized that he might have been going in the wrong direction.

How much could he really improve by pushing himself like this?

He was dominated by Ling Mo a few days ago, and he was still being dominated by Ling Mo now, not even able to last a second longer.

Could being defeated a few more times really lead to a transformation?

Ye Kai suddenly understood why Ling Mo wanted to fight this battle with him. Only an absolute overpowering in strength could bring him to his senses. With his personality, once he set his mind on a direction, he wouldn’t look back, and advice from others would be useless. Only by being thoroughly defeated would he be open to listening to someone else.

As it turned out, Ling Mo was right to do this; Ye Kai had been awakened.

The gap was so vast that he felt powerless to catch up immediately.

As Ling Mo said, it wasn’t just a difference in quantity, but in quality.

Ever since losing to Ling Mo, Ye Kai had been in a state of anxiety, but now he suddenly felt calm.

No matter how impatient he was, it was impossible to catch up in an instant…

If he couldn’t even defeat Ling Mo in front of him, how could he hope to find him amidst the vast sea of zombies?

The more anxious he was, the worse he performed…

At this moment, Ye Kai suddenly felt grateful.

As a fellow psychic, Ling Mo was different from the others in Team F.

Most members of Team F were psychics, but few shared their experiences with special abilities. Most were secretive, afraid their weaknesses would be exposed.

This wasn’t just true for Team F, it applied to many humans.

Battling against zombies, struggling against increasingly difficult living conditions, and even fighting among themselves.

But Ling Mo was willing to take this trouble for him, sharing his insights completely, which gave Ye Kai a different feeling.

“Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?” Ye Kai inhaled deeply and asked.

Ling Mo smiled slightly and said, “Take care of Miracle Team for me.”

“Are you…” Ye Kai suddenly held his breath.

“Yes, I think you’d make a good team leader,” Ling Mo nodded.

Ye Kai’s eyes lit up for a moment, but then he vigorously shook his head: “No, you’re the leader. I’ll… just be the deputy.”

“Alright…” Ling Mo knew that arguing with someone as stubborn as Ye Kai was futile, so he could only smile helplessly.

Ye Kai was indeed a suitable candidate. He was determined and, apart from becoming stronger, showed no interest in anything else, which eliminated the possibility of Team F’s members turning him against them.

Ling Mo’s departure from the team was both a step towards carving out his own path in the future and due to other factors…

“Take this.” Ling Mo took out a communicator and tossed it to Ye Kai, “Whether you can get in touch or not depends on luck…”

Communication was inconvenient, that was an unavoidable issue…

“I understand.” Ye Kai caught it and nodded.

“Anything else you want to ask about?” Ling Mo inquired.

“The mission… Don’t worry. And… I will be stronger than you one day!” Ye Kai gripped the handle of his knife and declared.

Ling Mo pursed his lips and suddenly laughed, “Don’t you think that’s a bit childish…”

“I do…” Ye Kai felt depressed again. He was serious, for goodness’ sake! But after being called out like that, it suddenly felt embarrassing…

“Oh, wait…” Just as Ling Mo was about to leave, Ye Kai suddenly spoke up, “Can I ask why you’re doing this?”

“What?” Ling Mo turned to ask.

“You have the strength, you have the people, you could have your own territory if you wanted. Why don’t you stay?” Ye Kai had been curious about this for a long time.

Ling Mo pondered for a moment before responding with a question, “What about you? With your current strength, you could easily get by in Team F and even do quite well. So why are you always fixated on becoming stronger than you are now?”

“Personal reasons…” Ye Kai’s expression darkened for a moment, and he said in a low voice.

“Same for me,” Ling Mo said.

The mutation and evolution of Ye Lian and the others were both a hope and a responsibility for Ling Mo.

If he only wanted to enjoy himself, he could indeed just find a place, put up a sign, and play boss.

But… the calm within Team F couldn’t hide the storm of blood and violence outside.

The newly appeared mutated types, the Screamers created by the Spider Queen… these new breeds of zombies were spreading at a horrific rate invisible to humans.

Maybe in a few days, when they stepped out the door, they would be facing a world that was even more terrifying and bloodier…
