Chapter Thirty-two: Schizophrenia

  Near midnight, the room was pitch black, and Shana, who had been still all along, suddenly opened her eyes.

  At a distance, Ling Mo saw Xiang Nas eerie red eyes that were still clearly visible in the dark. At the same time, he also sensed a hint of restlessness from Ye Lians instinctive reaction, which was a response she only showed when facing her own kind, especially variant zombies.

  Has Shana already completed her transformation? Ling Mo cautiously approached her, wanting to observe Shanas reaction more closely.

  But just as he walked to the bed, Shana suddenly turned over and rushed towards Ling Mo in the darkness that was almost invisible to the naked eye.

  If it were an ordinary person, they would probably only feel a gust of wind hitting their face, and then they would be completely torn to pieces without even realizing what had happened. In the dark, zombies are far superior to ordinary people in terms of vision, occupying an absolute advantage.

  Ling Mo naturally couldnt see Hanas movements clearly in this situation, but he could see her every move clearly through Ye Lians perspective. Moreover, as soon as he approached the bed, he had already raised his guard.

  Xia Na made this move, Ling Mo immediately jumped to the side, and Ye Lian, who had been quietly sitting on the bed, suddenly pounced out and grabbed Xia Nas arm from behind. Although Xia Na reacted extremely quickly and immediately turned around to attack Ye Lian, Ling Mo had already pounced over and directly knocked Xia Na onto the bed.

  Thats the weakness of zombies, which is the lack of judgment, only attacking by instinct and being easily distracted.

  However, Shanas struggles made Ling Mo extremely exhausted. If Ye Lian hadnt controlled her and pressed her down tightly, she would have broken free by now.

  But just as Ling Mo was about to flip her over and control her, Shana suddenly said in a somewhat dazed voice, "What are you doing?"

  "Pffft!"

  If it werent for just witnessing Shanas extremely strong attacking power, Ling Mo would have thought that Shana was still a normal person!

  Under the great shock, Ling Mo stared blankly at Xianas eyes, only to find that her eyes, which were just a bloody red, had returned to normal!

  At this time, Ling Mos eyes had already begun to adapt to the darkness. Although it was still a bit blurry, at such a close distance, he could barely make out Xiang Nas gaze and expression on her face. From her reaction, she seemed to be somewhat bewildered by the current situation. And that bewilderment falling into Ling Mos eyes made him feel like he had been struck by lightning in an instant!

  Before Ye Lians evolution, this expression had appeared briefly. It was as if she had regained some sanity and the sprouts of thought were beginning to emerge, in short, she was no longer just a mindless zombie who only knew how to kill! Although that expression quickly disappeared from Ye Lians eyes, it had already been deeply etched into Ling Mos heart. For Ling Mo, this was a glimmer of hope, the hope that Ye Lian would fully regain her sanity!

  But at this time, he actually saw the same expression in Shanas eyes, and unlike Yufen, she could also speak...

  "Xia Na, Xia Na?" Ling Mo finally came back to his senses after a long while, hastily grabbed Xia Nas shoulders and shook her vigorously several times, calling out to her in a low and urgent voice.

  The noise in the house also startled Wang Cheng, who was keeping watch in the living room, and even woke up Liu Yuhao.

  "Ling Ge! Is something wrong with Xianna?" Liu Yu Hao asked anxiously and nervously outside the door.

  "Get out of here!" Ling Mo said without turning his head back.

  The situation is unclear at this moment. Letting them in will only cause trouble, and Ling Mo cant wait to figure out whether the current Shana is a zombie or an ordinary person.

  It was as if she had been stimulated by the sound, and Shana, who had been in a daze, finally showed a hint of reaction. However, she didnt respond to Ling Mo, but instead started struggling wildly again, her eyes turning into a blood-red color. The ferocity and madness that belonged to the zombies once again took over her mind.

  Ling Mo quickly let Ye Lian firmly control Shana, and he himself used his puppet ability to try and control Shana. Letting her continue like this would ultimately lead to mutual destruction; for now, making her lose her attacking nature was very necessary.

  The spiritual light sphere belonging to Shana was indeed very different from that of Yue Lian. To be precise, in Ling Mos eyes, Shanas light sphere was simply a chaotic mess! Compared to the purely irrational zombies, Shanas light sphere wasnt blurry, but rather very bright. However, this red and white alternating pattern was something Ling Mo had never seen before! And now, it seemed that the red part had taken over, causing Shana to become extremely violent. When Ling Mo tried to control her, he also encountered an unprecedentedly huge pressure.

  Fortunately, Ling Mos spiritual power had evolved, and although it was extremely difficult, when he almost fainted, he finally suppressed Xiang Nas instincts and seized control of her body!

  However, since Shana still retained some sanity, Ling Mo did not completely control her in a domineering manner. Instead, he established a spiritual connection with her, just like he had done with Ye Lian before, which prevented her from attacking and allowed him to intervene whenever she tried to harm others.

  After being drenched in sweat, Xiana finally calmed down. Ling Mo rubbed his temples and slowly got out of bed, looking at Xiana with a complex gaze.

  Xianas sudden change into a mournful zombie and then showing a hint of sanity made Ling Mo unconsciously think of a word: schizophrenia.

  Infected and beginning to mutate, Shana swallowed two gelatinous cubes in a row. The virus inside her body was not neutralized, but instead invaded her mind. However, because she had swallowed the gelatinous cubes, Shanas physical body withstood the continuous impact of the virus and remained intact, without rotting like Lu Xin. This could be considered an unfortunate blessing.

  After being controlled by Ling Mo, suppressing her desire to attack, Xiana surprisingly calmed down again, and even her eyes slowly returned to normal. However, her gaze was still somewhat dazed, as if she hadnt fully woken up yet. Even so, controlling her in this state had taken a great toll on Ling Mos mental energy.

  Under these circumstances, its already good for her to maintain a spiritual connection with herself. Controlling her actions is somewhat difficult.

  Simultaneously controlling a variant zombie and a somewhat schizophrenic zombie was truly a huge pressure for Ling Mo.

  At this time, Liu Yuhao also rushed in, but as soon as he saw the situation inside the house, he was completely stunned.

  The messy bed was naturally ignored by him, but Shana sitting on the bed made Liu Yu Hao suddenly exclaim with extreme excitement: "Shana didnt become a zombie, she actually didnt become a zombie! Haha, Shana!" As he spoke, he rushed to Shanas side and excitedly reached out to pull her.

  "Dont move her!"

  Unfortunately, Ling Mo was still a step too late. As Liu Yus hand touched Xianas arm, Xiana, who had been in a daze, suddenly went berserk again. The blood color in her eyes grew brighter and brighter. If she hadnt been tightly restrained by Ling Mo, she would have started attacking Liu Yu by now.

  This situation made Liu Yuhao suddenly scared and retreated several steps before looking at Ling Mo in horror: "Whats going on?"

  Ling Mo certainly couldnt tell him that he had the ability to control puppets, but as for Shanas situation, he thought of a very reasonable explanation: "I think shes still suffering from aftereffects... youd better not provoke her, or shell lose her mind."

  "Sequelae?" Liu Yu Haos eyes widened, but he didnt have the slightest doubt about Ling Mos words.

  Indeed, apart from the aftereffect, there is no better explanation for Shanas current state. At this moment, Shanas eyes exude a bloodthirsty aura, staring tightly at herself, just like those zombies that only know how to kill. However, she sits still in her original position, which suggests that she still retains some sanity...
