When the last ray of light on the horizon disappeared, Ling Mo had already returned to his residence.

  This is a small building that doesnt look like much, but it has a solid iron gate and you can jump from the rooftop to the next building to escape. The front and back of the house also have relatively open spaces. Plus, this place was originally in the suburbs, so whether its survivors or zombies, there are far fewer than in the city, making it relatively safer.

  The most crucial thing is that this place was originally a warehouse for a small furniture factory, filled with the smell of inferior paint and wood, which completely covered up Ling Mos breath.

  Those monsters, after being infected with the virus, not only did not lose their five senses, but instead became stronger. They maintained clear vision even at night, and their hearing and sense of smell were beyond those of ordinary people.

  Before going to sleep, Ling Mo first fed the corpse a piece of rotten frozen meat, then left him outside the iron gate and locked it, only then did he rest at ease.

  Even in sleep, Ling Mo did not cut off his spiritual connection with the zombie, which was more tiring on one hand but also allowed him to exercise himself and keep watch at the same time.

  Its easy to say, but actually very difficult to let oneself rest while maintaining contact with the outside world. Ling Mo also tried countless times before grasping the degree of it. Now when he sleeps, he is always in a state of light sleep, and can even hear the slight movements around him.

  But today, Ling Mo couldnt fall asleep no matter what, and that figure kept appearing in his mind...

  After his parents passed away, the person he missed most in this world was only her, his secret crush and childhood neighbor, Ye Lian.

  When disaster struck, the last call she received was also from her.

  "Brother Ling, run away quickly!"

  A brief four-word phrase, followed by a burst of "beep" sounds...

  In fact, Ling Mo was also clear that Ye Lian had more misfortune than good fortune. When the disaster broke out, she was on her way to his residence, with the intention of making a decent dinner for him and helping him improve his life...

  It was precisely because of this that Ling Mo had a knot in his heart all along, whether he lived or died, he felt that he should find Ye Lian.

  "Tomorrow, Ill go find..."

  After preparing for so long, Ling Mo felt that with his ability to control the puppet corpses, he should be able to make it through this city district.

  He had already mapped out in his mind where she might appear, which was not too far from here, but there were two residential areas in between, which was the most dangerous section.

  But in order to pass as safely as possible, Ling Mo had made sufficient preparations. Everything was ready, and all that was left was tomorrow...

  As soon as the sky brightened at dawn, Ling Mo opened his eyes and jumped down from a semi-finished soft bed. After reorganizing his backpack again, Ling Mo took a deep breath and went downstairs.

  That corpse stood under his control, standing upright and motionless outside the door, its clothes drenched by the cold air. Looking at him, however, he didnt show any signs of fatigue.

  For some reason, the sudden large-scale outbreak of the virus not only turned many living people into monsters, but also made their bodies extremely strong. However, Ling Mo also noticed that in order to maintain the high-intensity consumption of their bodies, they were instinctively driven to eat continuously, and the source of food was the uninfected survivors.

  With a firm grip on the scraper knife, Ling Mo opened the iron gate and manipulated the corpse puppet to walk along the predetermined route.

  As soon as we entered the residential area, the number of zombies wandering around increased. In a place like this, using sound to attract them wont work because the environment is too complex and its easy to put yourself in danger.

  The only way is to choose a place with fewer zombies and try to pass through as quietly as possible.

  Its hard to imagine how difficult it is for ordinary people to act in such an environment. Fortunately, Ling Mo has a zombie puppet.

  With the help of the corpse, Ling Mo continuously killed more than a dozen zombies before finally passing through this area and arriving at a bustling street.

  This is already a transitional area between the urban and suburban areas, and in Ling Mos prediction, Ye Lian should be at some position on this main street when she made that call.

  The streets were littered with abandoned cars, and the shops along the way were all open, looking dark and gloomy at a glance.

  Apart from the bloodstains everywhere, all thats left here are zombies.

  Even though these days have killed many zombies, Ling Mo still saw the first time that so many zombies gathered together. Roughly looking past, just in the range of vision, there are probably dozens, let alone those hidden in the dark.

  Ling Mo decided to go to a high place to observe first, but unexpectedly, just as he walked towards a residential building, he heard a miserable cry not far away.

  "Help!"

  Unexpectedly, there were still survivors lurking around here! Ling Mo hastily controlled the corpse puppet and carefully approached in the direction of the sound.

  Outside a residential building, more than ten zombies gathered, frantically crashing into the anti-theft door at the entrance of the unit.

  Behind the door were two young men with terrified expressions, one of whom was pressing himself tightly against the door while the other was shouting for help desperately.

  "Scum......" Ling Mo furrowed his brow and looked around with some tension.

  Shouting like this will only attract more zombies. Ling Mo had originally wanted to help them within his power, but now it seems that acting rashly would only harm himself.

  As expected, some zombies were quickly attracted over there. The anti-theft door was constantly being rammed, making a "bang bang" sound, and the connection with the wall began to loosen significantly.

  Those two young men were as pale as death and screamed even more heart-wrenchingly in extreme terror...

  "Right!"

  With a loud crash, the anti-theft door was finally knocked down, and the miserable cries of the two young men were soon drowned out...

  But for Ling Mo, this was an opportunity. Taking advantage of the fact that many zombies were attracted over here, he could now pass through this area.

  After smoothly passing through the densely packed zombie area, Ling Mo hadnt even had time to feel happy when he discovered that the road ahead was blocked by a bus and several small cars.

  When the disaster broke out, it was not uncommon for vehicles to have accidents, let alone this fully loaded bus. Whether it was the mutation of passengers inside the vehicle or being frightened by the situation on the road, such a tragedy could occur.

  Judging from the appearance, this bus was involved in a chain collision with these speeding cars and has been completely deformed.

  Its just unknown what situation the passengers in the car are in, maybe they were trapped to death, or maybe they all turned into zombies...

  Ling Mo originally wanted to bypass it, but when staring at that bus, his mind suddenly "buzzed".

  Every time Ye Lian comes, it seems like she always takes the bus... As soon as this thought emerged, Ling Mos gaze towards the bus changed.

  He felt his heart beating violently for a moment, both excited and a little frightened.

  Its highly likely that Ye Lian was in this car at that time. If she hadnt escaped in time, she should still be here now.

  Although he felt fully psychologically prepared, when it really came time to face it, Ling Mo still felt a little panicked.

  Is it a rotting corpse, or is nothing left, or...

  After letting out a long sigh, Ling Mo controlled the corpse puppet and climbed onto the deformed car head.

  The feeling of controlling a corpse puppet is quite wonderful, as if you have an extra body. Through the spiritual connection between you and the corpse puppet, not only can you control its actions, but also receive feedback from its senses.

  But between Ling Mo and Shi Yu, there was still a layer of estrangement that made it impossible for him to truly control Shi Yu freely.

  In Ling Mos view, perhaps the state of being in perfect control is when one merges with the Corpse Puppet...

  Although it feels a bit strange, Ling Mo is still quite looking forward to that kind of boundary.
