My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 601: Let Go of That Zombie

Chapter 601: Let Go of That Zombie

Ling Mo was thinking exactly that.

The watery corpses all originated from ordinary zombies, and it was the infection source that had somehow gathered them here.

Capturing, luring, or bringing them in batches slowly… There could be any number of methods, and Ling Mo couldn’t guess them right away. There was no need to rack his brain over it.

Once these zombies were brought here, they would become infected by the virus.

It might be through a bite, or some other means…

But most zombies couldn’t withstand the virus, and these unlucky ones turned into watery corpses.

More specifically, they died during the mutation process, but their bodies didn’t decay; instead, they became a sort of fertilizer, providing spiritual and odor masking protection for the area.

The humid, warm gases they emitted might even create a greenhouse effect…

It was like an all-purpose fertilizer!

However, a very small portion could mutate due to this deadly virus and become mutated zombies.

These mutated zombies were quite different from the mutated type that Ling Mo had recently discovered.

The mutations in the mutated zombies were evident in their physical features, mainly in their limbs and facial features, with a few having mutations in internal organs that were usually noticeable at a glance.

The mutated type, on the other hand, were indistinguishable from ordinary zombies when they weren’t actively displaying their abilities.

All in all, the mutated type was a product of a combination of ordinary zombies and mutated zombies…

But clearly, what they had here were purely mutated zombies, as Ling Mo and his group had already encountered several.

It wasn’t clear whether these zombies were ready to come out on schedule, or if they had been disturbed by them and thus emerged prematurely…

But what was certain was that this place had been in existence for a long time, and the mutated zombies it had cultivated were definitely not limited to these few.

Like the head corpse they had encountered earlier, it seemed like it was produced right here.

That head corpse might have been drawn out because Ling Mo and his group had gotten too close to this underground factory…

“Thinking about it, how many have been produced over the past half-year? Or has this factory only started recently? But no matter what, even the defective products here are not wasted but are recycled… It really is an impressive factory! I just wonder where the factory manager is…” Ling Mo mused to himself.

But now was not the time for such thoughts. The zombie struggling within the mucus wall was about to break through the last layer of restraint! Once it was free, another new mutated zombie would be added to their problems. Wasn’t this just causing more trouble?

Ling Mo crammed the flashlight into his sleeve, letting just a sliver of light escape, while his other hand groped on the ground for the tactical knife he had dropped earlier.

The process was disgusting for Ling Mo; this wasn’t a floor at all, but all mucus!

After he grabbed the knife, he immediately shook off the mucus-covered hand with a grimace: “Ew, what a mess…”

Fortunately, that was merely disgusting. With no cuts on his hand, the small amount of virus that might penetrate his pores wasn’t enough to infect him.

If he could get infected that easily, then what would be the point of all the zombie virus and mutated zombie virus already in his body? They’d just be for show.

At worst, he could absorb a bit more of the mysterious virus and maybe even develop some antibodies from it…

The main reason he wasn’t worried was because of the humid, warm air here. If just being exposed to the pores could infect him, he would have mutated a long time ago.

Since he had been here for so long without getting infected, direct contact with a little mucus wouldn’t be a problem either.

However, it was still very dangerous to let blood and mucus come into contact, so although Ling Mo was holding the tactical knife, he did not rush forward recklessly.

Having not been caught just now, getting injured by charging in would be too embarrassing…

“Ow, ow!”

The zombie started to growl again, its upper body almost parallel to the ground, but unfortunately, it was just short of reaching Ling Mo.

Ling Mo pursed his lips, observing with the knife in hand.

When the zombie stretched its body to the limit and was about to pull its legs out, Ling Mo suddenly rushed forward.

His mental power wasn’t very effective now, but he hadn’t completely given up on using his mental tentacles.

One tentacle wrapped around the zombie’s arm, and another around its neck.

As expected, when the tentacles made contact with the zombie, they encountered resistance…

Despite this, Ling Mo forcefully materialized the tentacles.

Although he didn’t completely immobilize the zombie, he managed to cause a momentary delay in its movements.

“Good opportunity!”

Ling Mo didn’t stop; he charged right past the zombie’s arm, using the momentum to thrust the knife into the zombie’s chest.

“Gurgle, gurgle…”

The zombie’s eyes widened suddenly, staring at Ling Mo with a cruel and cold gaze.

Ling Mo gritted his teeth and twisted his wrist forcefully.

“Wah…”

The zombie’s mouth opened involuntarily, and a big gush of black blood immediately surged out. Its body convulsed a couple of times, then completely went limp.

Before Ling Mo could relax, a tearing sound came from the mucus layer nearby, and a face suddenly appeared in the crack.

“Ow…”

“…This success rate isn’t bad, huh!” Ling Mo was momentarily speechless.

But this time he was prepared and didn’t passively react as before.

As soon as the zombie howled, Ling Mo dealt with it with a direct knife strike.

“Hey, it just cried out upon being born, and you stabbed it to death…” Shana’s voice came from behind.

“Although it’s true, why does it sound so twisted when you describe it?” Ling Mo struggled to pull out the tactical knife and skillfully dodged to the side.

A stream of blood immediately sprayed out, landing just in front of a pair of leather shoes.

Shana was carrying a scythe, smiling at Ling Mo: “Hehe, come over here and see what we found.”

“What?” Ling Mo asked curiously.

A few seconds later, the excitement on Ling Mo’s face faded as if the tide was going out.

His brow was furrowed, his eyes slightly squinted, and the corner of his mouth held a strange smile…

“Why… are you here?”

Ling Mo suddenly let out a sigh and reached out to pat Xiao Bai’s head.

While rubbing Xiao Bai’s forehead, he asked, “Quick question and answer… Where did that dumb loli go?”

“Meh-ge!”

Xiao Bai shook its head and closed its eyes to enjoy Ling Mo’s touch.

However, before it could enjoy the caress for long, it suddenly felt its head being pushed down: “I told you not to wander off! Do you have any intelligence at all? Can you understand what I’m saying? Damn it, have I been too nice to you guys lately that you’ve become so arrogant?”

“Hey, Ling Mo, you’re just free-ranging it…” Shana reminded him.

“Hehe, I’ve been spoiling you too much!” Ling Mo continued to scold.

“Isn’t it Yu Shiran who spoils it? It’s hardly ever by your side…” Shana continued her gentle reminder.

“Can you understand? Do you see my anger?” Ling Mo vented.

“This… it seems very confused.” This time even Li Ya Lin noticed…

Ye Lian silently walked over and then bent down to hug Xiao Bai’s big head.

Ling Mo, intending to continue the head-patting, held his hand in mid-air, but could only helplessly shake it: “Don’t be like this… I’m not bullying it…”

“Meh-ge~” Xiao Bai twisted its body in grievance, rubbing its head against Ye Lian’s chest.

Seeing this mutated panda actually acting coquettish… Ling Mo instantly got angry again.

“If it weren’t for the fact that you’re a female… I…” Ling Mo felt a wave of frustration.

Right now, he really wanted to shout: Let go of that female zombie, let me do it!

But… focusing on the matter at hand was more important.

The recent disturbance seemed to have been caused by Xiao Bai, but since Xiao Bai was here, where was Yu Shiran?

Moreover, judging from what Yu Shiran had said earlier, Xiao Bai should be in trouble…

Ling Mo was about to suggest continuing the search when suddenly Ye Lian said, “What… what’s wrong?”

“What do you mean what’s wrong?” Ling Mo shone the flashlight again.

Xiao Bai, previously quite lively, had suddenly become wobbly.

Its massive body slumped to the ground, eyes looking lifeless…

Although it usually had heavy dark circles under its eyes, they seemed especially pronounced now.
