Chapter 8 Changes

  Ling Mo chose a temporary shelter, a small family hotel. The room was fairly clean and the bloody smell wasnt too strong. Most importantly, its location was good. He deliberately brought several bottles of disinfectant to pour at the door, and almost no zombies noticed this place.

  However, this method can still be effective in areas where zombies are not densely populated, but if it is in a city area with zombies all over the place, Im afraid it will attract the attention of the zombies instead...

  After eating something, Ling Mo carefully checked the doors and windows again, then sat down in front of Ye Lian and took out the gel block from his pocket.

  I dont know if its because it was exposed to the air for too long, but that faint pungent smell had become even more intense. As soon as she took it out, her eyes turned red from the irritation. If not for the strong spiritual connection between Ling Mo and her, she might have wanted to resist.

  But the taste was a kind of torture for Ling Mo, and the reason he didnt immediately stuff it into Ye Lians mouth was that he found the color of this gel block to be too strange, just like real blood clots, and it looked very fresh. Who would have thought that the virus also had a preservative effect...

  At this time, the demand from Ye Lians instincts had become very strong, and Ling Mo did not continue to stimulate her, but instead stretched out his hand and put the gel block to her mouth.

  Ye Lians lips were cool, and when she opened her mouth to swallow the gelatinous cube, the warm tip of her tongue lightly swept across Ling Mos fingertips, causing his heart to skip a beat. As he looked at Ye Lians eyes gradually calming down, Ling Mo even had an urge to directly kiss her...

  But just as Ling Mo slowly lifted her face, Yue Lian, who had no expression on her face, suddenly closed her eyes and furrowed her brow slightly.

  This shocked Ling Mo, it was the first time he saw an expression on Ye Lians face after her transformation. Although Ye Lian had her eyes tightly closed, the dangerous aura emanating from her body made Ling Mo feel as if the temperature around him had dropped.

  At the same time, a cold and hot alternating feeling also swept through Ling Mos entire body. He shuddered all over, and then felt a sharp pain coming from every pore on his body. His head was like it was about to explode.

  "Ah..."

  Ling Mo couldnt help but let out a pained hum and immediately curled up, while Ye Lian, who had been released by him, fell backwards and lay paralyzed in the bed.

  Indescribable agony, transmitted from every cell in Ling Mos body, he felt as if his body was being torn apart and reassembled bit by bit. Just being affected by the spiritual connection made him suffer so much, let alone directly bearing Ye Lians pain.

  Ling Mos eyes were bloodshot as he knelt on the bed, his whole body trembling involuntarily, but his eyes remained fixed on Ye Lian.

  Even if Ye Lian can hold on, whats wrong with a big man like you being unable to hold on...

  It wasnt until half an hour later that this intense pain finally slowly subsided, but in the silent feeling it was as if three days and nights had passed.

  Fortunately, the refreshing feeling that followed greatly alleviated the aftereffects of the severe pain. He could feel the subtle changes he had accumulated over time being summarized and sublimated in this episode of severe pain, as if he had been reborn. The power hidden in his muscles, as well as an unprecedented clarity of mind, made Ling Mo extremely excited.

  Like the mutated zombies, he also gained some kind of evolution... Although it cant be seen from his appearance, Ling Mo could clearly feel it. He didnt know if it was just his own illusion, but Ling Mo felt that because he had endured this intense pain with a clear mind, the evolution he gained in terms of spiritual power was even more than what he gained physically.

  It can only be seen in practice whether it is or not.

  Ye Lian didnt sleep all night, and in her daze, she kept frowning slightly, trembling from time to time. Ling Mo stood guard beside her, feeling both sympathy and anticipation. After absorbing the mutated zombies brain gel, how much would Ye Lian grow...

  "I fainted, and unexpectedly fell asleep..."

  Physical exhaustion led Ling Mo to finally fall asleep after a night of vigilance. However, the special skills he had cultivated in the post-apocalyptic world allowed him to wake up just a few minutes later.

  This special way of sleeping is likely to be mastered by those who survive in the end. The strong vigilance that can almost be considered an instinct, even in a dream, will always remind oneself to stay awake, and a few minutes of deep sleep is enough to relieve tense nerves.

  However, as a puppeteer, Ling Mo rarely entered deep sleep in order to maintain the spiritual connection with his corpse puppet. This was the first time...

  He opened his eyes nervously and found a shocking fact: Ye Lian was gone!

  Did Ye Lian break free from his control in those few minutes?! But after calming down, Ling Mo suddenly discovered that things were not like that. After evolving, Ling Mos spiritual power had become very strong, from deliberate control to freely manipulating at will, it was simply a qualitative change.

  At this time, although Ye Lian was not in front of him, Ling Mo could still clearly feel that his spirit was connected to hers.

  Ever since being controlled by him, except for battles and outings, Ye Lian almost never acts on her own initiative, how today suddenly...

  Thinking of this, Ling Mos puzzled eyes quickly shifted to Ye Lians perspective...

  Its okay, Ye Lian is still in the inn, but her behavior is a bit strange. If it were usual, except for attacking and eating, Ye Lian basically wouldnt make any moves with self-awareness, but now shes wandering around the inn.

  And from time to time, she would stop at some places and gaze quietly for a while.

  Whats going on? Ling Mo quickly rushed out of the door and soon found Ye Lian in the corridor downstairs.

  When he first saw Ye Lian, Ling Mo almost exclaimed out loud. The morning sunlight shone through the window and onto Ye Lian, who was standing in the suns rays and turning to look at him with a hint of confusion on his face. This tiny display of emotion made Ling Mo feel an intense thrill run through his entire body.

  "Ye Lian!" Ling Mo rushed to Ye Lians side, grasping her shoulders with both hands, and exclaimed in extreme surprise.

  Unexpectedly, she was able to regain consciousness so quickly...

  No... After a few moments of dizziness, Ling Mo suddenly felt a splash of cold water pouring down on him. In Ye Lians eyes, he saw only occasional flashes of confusion and the same calmness as usual.

  Perhaps the evolution of the virus has caused a slight relaxation in Ye Lians confined rationality, but it is still far from recovering. It is also possible that the evolution of the virus has given rise to new consciousness in Ye Lian, who was previously a blank slate...

  "Ye Lian?" Not giving up, he shouted a few more times before Ling Mo finally accepted the fact that Ye Lian had not fully recovered.

  At least Ye Lian showed a hint of emotional expression and began to take action on her own. Whether this is a sign of her recovery or the viruss new evolution, it at least shows that Ling Mos expectations still have hope of being fulfilled.
