My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 632: The Mocking Face

A fleeting vulnerability appeared in the blink of an eye, vanishing almost as quickly as it had come. Even if one were to perceive it, reacting in time would be exceedingly difficult.

For even the most in-sync partners cannot achieve truly simultaneous action.

But Ling Mo was different. On one hand, his neural response speed was honed to an incredibly swift level. On the other, his and Ye Lian’s minds were as one.

The moment the vulnerability appeared, Ling Mo reflexively sprang into action.

He surged upward, two tentacles shooting out from his Mental Sphere, seizing the momentarily unstable foot of the creature.

“Boom!”

The creature collapsed with a thud, rolling along with the momentum before crashing heavily against the guardrail at the roadside.

Before it could rise, Ye Lian’s Thor in hand flashed with fire.

A burst of blood sprayed from the creature, accompanied by its piercing howl.

This series of actions, as if performed by one being in perfect harmony, left Mu Chen utterly dumbstruck. From an observer’s perspective, Ling Mo and Ye Lian’s movements were seamlessly connected, violent in process and bloody in result, yet it resembled a well-rehearsed performance. However, inserting himself mentally into the scenario, Mu Chen’s mind was overwhelmed with shock.

No matter how he analyzed or calculated, he could never achieve what Ling Mo and Ye Lian had. And in the recent sequence, had there been even the slightest delay in their actions, even by fractions of a second, the outcome would have been drastically different.

“This is truly the pinnacle of being in love…” Mu Chen muttered, stunned as if turned to wood.

As the creature fell, Ling Mo did not rush over but instead, his gaze intensified, and the surrounding “spiders” instantly materialized.

A muffled grunt echoed from the void, followed by the appearance of a figure nearby.

This time, before Ling Mo could act, Shen Le took the initiative and vanished, reappearing beside the creature the next second.

“How did you…” Shen Le looked at Ling Mo with a displeased expression, seeming somewhat incredulous about the situation. But he quickly displayed a cold smirk and said, “However, I now have a clear understanding of your abilities. Invisible attacks, but with distance and power limitations—the farther the distance, the weaker the energy. You can block attacks, but I suspect there’s a limit…”

He pondered for a moment before continuing, “Mental power. But how much longer can you sustain your mental energy?”

“Not bad,” Ling Mo complimented him.

Shen Le initially felt a bit smug, but Ling Mo’s mocking gaze gradually wiped the smile off his face, and anger surged within him. He darkly asked, “What do you mean?”

“It’s not just you who’s testing,” Ling Mo replied. “I guess your phantoms probably only work within a thirty-meter radius, right?”

Shen Le didn’t respond, but his instantly darkening complexion spoke volumes.

In fact, what occupied his mind was one question: How did this guy figure it out?!

Soon after, he realized that what Ling Mo had been doing earlier—those seemingly meaningless, even idiotic attacks that appeared to be a waste of time—were actually a method of probing…

By constantly changing his appearance location, during that process, Shen Le discovered that Ling Mo’s mental attacks varied in strength with distance, but wasn’t Ling Mo also using that to pinpoint his greatest weakness?

Initially, he could have safely probed Ling Mo’s abilities using the monster, but he was easily provoked by Ling Mo’s continuous and annoying attacks.

Now it seemed that while he thought Ling Mo was just a boring weakling, Ling Mo was likely smugly thinking to himself, what an easy mark, what a fool…

“So, you really are an idiot,” Ling Mo shook his head and said.

Damn! Shen Le’s face turned ashen as he clenched his fists tightly.

“But I actually thought your phantoms didn’t have the ability to attack, didn’t expect you to lose your composure and act,” Ling Mo continued.

“So what?” Shen Le knew Ling Mo was using this talk to probe further, but he couldn’t help but follow along.

Ling Mo’s face still wore a hint of a smile: “You’re actually a mental ability user.”

“What?! That shout came from Mu Chen, who was still leaning against the wall.

Since Shen Le had revealed his abilities, Mu Chen had been certain that this young man was an enhancement ability user.

That speed, that way of appearing and disappearing… How could that possibly be the work of a mental ability user??

And if it was a mental ability, Ling Mo should have realized it at first glance. Since he didn’t see it before, how could he suddenly think Shen Le was a mental ability user now?

Shen Le himself was obviously shocked. A second later, he asked, “How do you know?”

“Damn, it really is!” Mu Chen slapped his forehead in astonishment.

“You’re just too clumsy,” was the answer Ling Mo gave, which almost made Mu Chen spit out.

At this point, Mu Chen felt a bit of sympathy for Shen Le. Watching the red-haired young man clenching his fists in frustration, unable to find a counterargument, Mu Chen felt suffocated on his behalf.

Trying to outtalk Ling Mo, Shen Le was clearly outclassed!

Not only that, but after being continuously mocked by Ling Mo, Shen Le was probably about to lose his mind.

A mental ability user who can’t stay calm is practically seeking death…

Mu Chen looked at Ling Mo with a mix of admiration and a hint of fear. He now held a certain respect for this young man, but also a subtle fear.

Compared to Shen Le, who seemed to have fallen into some sort of paranoid state, Ling Mo was much more rational.

When Mu Chen first saw Shen Le, he thought the two had some similarities.

Both liked to smile and seemed relaxed… People with such a mindset usually have a pretty good attitude.

But now, it was clear that Shen Le was far behind Ling Mo. His “relaxation” was entirely based on strength, whereas Ling Mo could maintain this mindset even in difficult situations.

Now, as soon as the two of them crossed paths, the gap between them became apparent.

“Now that I know you’re a mental ability user, this will be easy…” Ling Mo spoke with confidence.

“Good… good,” Shen Le’s face revealed a hint of madness, and his tone became somewhat frenetic, “Finding out doesn’t matter, I can still beat you until you’re begging for mercy. Do you know what I’m going to do to you? I will make you watch as your beautiful girlfriend is killed, and then eaten by Number 1! Hahaha… No, no, no, let’s have her do it.”

Shen Le’s gaze drifted towards Xu Shuhan: “How about letting your girlfriend eat the others? Hahaha…”

“She’s not my girlfriend,” Ling Mo replied calmly.

The laughter from Shen Le stopped abruptly as he became frantic. The sensation of exerting himself to the fullest while his opponent remained unaffected was like punching cotton, only to watch it slowly return to its original shape.

Helpless and furious!

“You’re focusing on all the wrong things!”

Before Shen Le could finish his sentence, a bloody hole had already appeared in his shoulder.

Shen Le vanished in an instant with a look of horror on his face, evading the gun that Ye Lian raised immediately afterward.

“Ah, missed the head,” Ling Mo said regretfully.

“Even with the upper hand, he still resorts to sneak attacks…” Mu Chen was dumbstruck, unable to determine if Ling Mo was genuinely infuriating or intentionally distracting his opponent.

If it was the former, then this man was truly terrifying. It was as if shamelessness and cunning were ingrained in his instincts!

In the blink of an eye, Shen Le reappeared behind the monster. He slapped it with one hand and covered his wounded shoulder with the other, angrily blowing a whistle: “Whew!”

“Number 1, attack!”

With Shen Le’s cry, Number 1, which seemed to be on the brink of death, staggered to its feet.

And as soon as it stood up, it charged forward vigorously.

During its lunge, it dodged Ye Lian’s aim with a swift shake, heading straight for Ling Mo.

Watching it approach at high speed, the feeling in Ling Mo’s heart grew stronger.

“It’s not a zombie!”

This thought emerged again in Ling Mo’s mind, and this time, he was almost certain.

At the same time, Shen Le vanished and then reappeared at the monster’s side, using it as cover: “What does thirty meters matter? Try increasing the distance first!”

After speaking, he disappeared again like a bubble.

“Given up on sneak attacks and decided to move simultaneously?” Ling Mo sneered, “You might as well stick to being a breeder!”

Dozens of tentacles, already prepared, shot towards Number 1!

The probing was over; now it was time for a direct confrontation!
