Chapter 78: Born with a sarcastic face

  Living to see that day... The idea is simple, but it's not easy to achieve!

  Moreover, in Ling Mo's heart, this battered world would probably never return to its former state.

  It's not just X City, I'm afraid other places have also become dead cities. Even if humans can gradually stand firm, can they really drive out and kill all the zombies?

  At first, Ling Mo still had hope, but until now there has been no rescue, and his mentality has also undergone a gradual change.

  It's still that sentence, instead of waiting for the rescue that may or may not appear at an unknown time, it's better to improve your strength as much as possible and rely on yourself to survive.

  "Let's go, with this corpse here, it will soon attract zombies." Ling Mo sighed and said.

  Ye Lian's attack speed was fast, and her method of attack was also very cruel. This corpse had almost been completely disembowelled, its internal organs spilled all over the ground, and the strong smell of blood would soon attract hordes of zombies like hungry wolves.

  Jian Lin was really exhausted after the battle earlier and couldn't move much, so Ling Mo let Xiang Na support her, also keeping watch at the back.

  Shi Bin is just a sneak attacker who can't be relied on in temporary battles with insufficient reaction ability.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, soon zombies smelling the scent crawled out from various corners of the forest. Most of these zombies were originally brought here by Lin Luoyue and his gang, and finally stayed nearby.

  Ye Lian walked ahead, and the zombies that came face to face were easily solved. The zombies that attacked from other directions were mostly affected by Ling Mo's spiritual touch, then a close-range knife strike at the vital point, one knife settled.

  However, the zombies that came from Shi Bin's direction were not dealt with by Ling Mo, and Shi Bin had to circle around the tree in a sorry state, dancing with the zombies. If it weren't for his relatively agile movements, he would have been done for.

  Lin Ran saw that Ling Mo was not moving, and she knew he had learned a lesson from Shi Bin's words. However, she was indeed very clever and knew that she owed Ling Mo one for saving her life earlier. At this moment, she really didn't have the capital to beg for mercy, so she could only reluctantly pretend she hadn't seen anything.

  Taking advantage of the terrain, Shi Bin finally managed to get rid of those few zombies, but he was already exhausted like a dead pig, just short of collapsing on the ground and panting wildly.

  Looking at Ling Mo, he alone had killed more than a dozen zombies, yet his expression remained unchanged, except for the faint sweat on his forehead, there was no sign of any abnormality.

  "Didn't expect he's not bad himself... " Shi Bin had just thought of this, and immediately clenched his teeth in anger, "Hmph! Compared to those two girls, he's nothing! Just because he has special abilities? If I had special abilities, I wouldn't be worse than him! What's there to show off about..."

  But he could only scold in his heart and let it go...

  There were zombies constantly crawling out from all corners of the forest, and everyone's speed was also slowed down. The original planned 7-8 minute journey took almost half an hour.

  When they finally crawled out of the forest, there were nearly thirty more zombie corpses inside. This forest is likely to become a banquet hall for zombies soon.

  Outside the forest was a grassland, with a narrow path in the middle. There were also some zombies wandering on the grassland, not many, about twenty or so. Unfortunately, this piece of grassland was very open, and although Ling Mo could easily take care of these zombies with his puppet ability, he didn't want to expose his special abilities too much. Lin Ran and Qiu Yue still thought that his special ability was just some kind of spiritual power.

  Although exposing one's abilities doesn't matter much, it may lead to some unnecessary speculation.

  "It seems like it's going to be a slow process."

  Ling Mo adopted a very simple method. He first picked up a small stone and threw it into the pile of zombies closest to him.

  Although the sound was very faint, it was enough to attract the attention of these few zombies. As soon as they moved, Ling Mo quietly controlled three of the zombies that were not facing him, making them turn in his direction, and at the same time, he exposed a bit of his head from his hiding place.

  This way, it gives people a feeling that these few zombies are discovered by Ling Mo only because they heard the movement, and no one will notice some of his small tricks.

  As the zombies rushed over, Ling Mo calmly retreated a distance, and when they entered the edge of the forest, he quickly finished them off with Ye Lian and Xiang Na. To save time, Ling Mo also charged forward, looking very brave, but to avoid accidentally getting hurt, he actually still walked around the periphery to solve those zombies. With the ability to manipulate puppets and use spiritual touch to affect their movements and judgments, Ling Mo's battle with these few zombies was simply effortless.

  This approach seems a bit despicable, but Ling Mo has already figured it out. After all, he is a flesh-and-blood person, and once he is injured by the zombies, the game is over. This is the most fatal weakness of being human.

  Think about it, the zombies' attacks are relentless and all-out, but humans are timid and afraid to get close, fearing that they will be touched, even if it's just a scratch.

  So when humans face zombies, they often lack courage and can't even fight freely.

  Ke Ling Mo is different, on the one hand, he can let Ye Lian and Xia Na rush into the zombie heap, on the other hand, he can also influence some zombies closer to himself through his puppet ability, and kill them in a very safe state.

  Lin Ranqiu didn't lift a finger to conserve his strength, while Shi Bin was so exhausted that he was squatting on the side like a dead dog. However, Ling Mo didn't give him a chance to catch his breath and deliberately controlled one of the zombies to run towards Shi Bin for two steps before releasing control. Shi Bin, who had been half-dead from exhaustion, thought he was safe, but suddenly found himself face-to-face with a zombie that had charged straight at him, causing him to jump up in surprise and prepare to defend himself.

  While dodging the zombie, he thought gloomily to himself, this zombie was ignoring Ling Mo who was jumping around beside him, yet it was charging towards me, did I grow a mocking face?

  By this relatively conservative but safe method, Ling Mo solved all the zombies closer to the woods. The zombies wandering in the distance had already smelled the bloody smell and didn't need Ling Mo to lure them, they rushed over on their own initiative.

  But what awaits them is also death.

  These ordinary zombies are still very threatening to ordinary people if they have a slightly larger number, but facing Ye Lian and Xiang Na, they are completely cannon fodder.

  But in the battle, Ling Mo also noticed that these zombies would not actively attack higher-level mutant zombies, but it did not mean they would not resist after being attacked. The reason why this was not discovered before was because Ye Lian and Xiang Na were basically one-hit kills, giving them no chance to resist. But here, due to the presence of trees as obstacles, Ye Lian and Xiang Na had both encountered situations where they did not directly kill the zombies.

  One of the zombies had its arm chopped off by Ye Lian, and it immediately let out a low growl as it pounced towards her. However, just halfway through, Ling Mo used his spiritual touch to influence it, and then quickly chopped it down.

  And the other one was chopped by Shana, but still swayed and supported for a while without falling down, then turned around and pounced on Ye Lian not far away, and was cut in half by Ye Lian.

  It can be said that it was an exception once, but if it happens twice in a row, there must be a problem. I don't know if these ordinary zombies had this kind of rebellious consciousness before, or if they acquired it after some upgrade.

  After all, ordinary zombies will also gain some small evolution when eating the bodies of their own kind, although it's not obvious, but accumulating day by day is also terrifying. Moreover, this speculation had occurred to Ling Mo before.

  Ordinary people in the doomsday struggle to survive, and through their struggles, they have developed some survival skills. Their mentality is also slowly improving. Among these ordinary people, there are a portion of superhumans who are enhancing their strength. At the same time, the massive zombie horde is also gradually evolving as a whole, with even more powerful variants emerging, such as mutated zombies and advanced zombies.

  After clearing out the last batch of zombies, Ling Mo and others hastily crossed this grassland, rushing towards the central area of X City University.

  As a university that can accommodate 50,000 to 60,000 people, X City University covers an extremely large area.

  According to Lin Luoqiu's introduction, wherever there are teaching buildings and dormitory buildings, the number of zombies is very large. The zombies near the front gate are also numerous and shocking.

  But the survivors were scattered in every corner of the school, barely surviving on a small amount of food amidst the piles of zombies. To escape from inside the school to the outside, one must be fully psychologically prepared. So unless absolutely necessary, no one was willing to take the risk of escaping. Moreover, people have a mentality of following the crowd, even if some people are clear in their hearts that being trapped in this place is tantamount to waiting for death, but they only dare to stay with the majority, lacking the courage to venture out alone.

  It is really rare for those who dare to venture out alone and manage to escape alive. For example, Lin Luoqiu and Shi Bin...

  "Then your previous self-rescue team should be closer to the back door, right?" Ling Mo asked thoughtfully as he listened to Lin Luo's introduction.

  Lin Luo looked at Ling Mo in surprise, then nodded: "Yes, otherwise we wouldn't have chosen this escape route. Do you see that theater over there?" She said, pointing to a distant red brick building, "That's where my self-rescue team is, and now there are less than twenty people left inside."

  "Don't you really want to go back and take a look?" Ling Mo's eyes flashed with a hint of unusual color as he asked.

  Lin Ran was taken aback for a moment, then sighed and said: "When I decided to leave, I had already broken up with them. Since our values are different, we can't work together. I won't go back. Besides, I won't go and humiliate myself."

  Ling Mo confirmed once again that Lin Ranqiu had no intention of going back, and he also put his mind at ease. He came here to hunt zombies, but didn't want to actively interact with survivors.

  Once trouble gets on your back, it's hard to shake off.

  "Where is the school hospital located?" Ling Mo asked again.

  Lin Ranqiu raised his arm and pointed in a very distant direction: "Behind the C3 teaching building, it should be considered the central area of the school. The densest area of zombies is also that piece of region."
