As Xu Zai turned and walked down the stairs, a black shadow suddenly darted out from the shadows.
Xu suddenly felt a gust of wind behind him and his heart skipped a beat.
His reaction was not slow either, he immediately turned sideways and swung his arm back, slamming it towards the back.
Normally, an ordinary person who launches a surprise attack would likely be knocked flying by the opponent's counterattack. However, Xu Zai's move this time forced his opponent to retreat, but didn't cause him any harm at all.
The moonlight shone through the corridor window and into the room, where Xu Cai's face was gloomy as he stared at the person who had just launched a surprise attack on him, someone he had only met that afternoon.
"Hello." Ling Mo's hand held that short knife with a chilling glow, his mouth slightly curved up in an ambiguous smile, making Xu Cai suddenly feel a surge of anger.
Xu Cai also came back to his senses from the shock of being ambushed, he raised the whetstone and said coldly: "Just right, let's settle you first, and then it will be easy to deal with the rest. You are really arrogant, actually following Shi Bin alone."
"Am I arrogant? You will find out soon enough."
Xian Yucai had already taken a stance, and Ling Mo, although appearing very relaxed on the surface, also raised his guard. The counterattack just now was obviously not something an ordinary person could do, he should be a practitioner.
Ling Mo's close combat was not his strong suit, and he had never systematically learned any fighting skills. All of his moves came from the insights and experiences gained in life-and-death struggles. However, Ling Mo's puppeteering ability could make up for this weakness very well.
After hearing Ling Mo's words, Xu Ze licked his lips and revealed a sly smile: "How, do you think you're some kind of awesome ability user, and you can really take me on one-on-one? No problem, after I kill you, I'll have a good chat with your girlfriend about feelings. Ye Lian looks so beautiful, the feeling of doing it should be pretty good, huh?"
Ling Mo's smile on his face suddenly vanished, and his eyes turned extremely cold as he looked at Xu Cai!
"I won't let you die too quickly." Ling Mo gripped his short knife tightly and suddenly charged forward.
Although his strength was insufficient, Ling Mo's speed was much faster than that of an ordinary person, and his movements were also much more agile. The distance between the two was less than three meters, and Xu Cai had not expected Ling Mo to accelerate to this extent in an instant.
It was just a blink of an eye, and Ling Mo had already appeared in front of him, a cold light simultaneously slashing fiercely towards his neck.
What surprised Xu Cai was that this young man, who looked like he had average strength, actually knew how to utilize the powerful force brought by acceleration. He was not as tall as Xu Cai, but precisely because of this, when he rushed in front of Xu Cai and suddenly jumped up, the short knife in his hand made a "whooshing" sound, cutting across with an extremely overbearing power!
If this hits, Xu Can's head is estimated to be gone.
However, Xu Ze was also a ruthless person. He forced himself to take half a step back, and the knife in his hand suddenly blocked his side. But at this moment, he suddenly found that his movements had slowed down by half a beat for some reason!
He had originally intended to completely block Ling Mo's short knife, but suddenly his vision blurred for a moment, and by the time he reacted, the grinding stick in his hand had already fallen halfway!
"Right!"
A crisp metallic knock immediately came, and Xu Cai and Ling Mo simultaneously felt a shock in their wrists!
A streak of blood immediately appeared on Xu Cai's neck, and then a torrent of fresh blood gushed out, instantly dyeing his shoulders red. Xu Cai retreated several steps in shock, covering his neck with his hand.
What a close call! Just now almost got my neck cut off!
If it wasn't for the last moment he raised his arm, and the grinding rod that was about to be put down was lifted again, he would have moved his head now! However, even so, the tip of the short knife also scratched his skin, although it was only a superficial wound, but also bleeding a lot!
It's too weird... Xu Zai didn't think he would have such a symptom at this critical moment, and not only did his eyes blur, but it seemed that his arm also made movements contrary to his instructions!
Xing Hai's eyes widened in shock and anger as he glared at Ling Mo, knowing he had no way out now, so a burst of ferocity completely erupted from him.
"Damn it!" Xu Cai let out a low growl and charged again. But in the process of rushing forward, he suddenly felt dizzy again, his head spinning, and then he only felt himself colliding with Ling Mo, a chill running from his abdomen.
Ling Mo struck with a single blow and immediately retreated, while Xu Cai stood dazed on the spot.
The whetstone he was holding was now inserted into his own abdomen, and almost all of it had entered, leaving only a short handle on the outside.
"So tired......" Ling Mo stared intently at Xu Cai while pinching the middle of his eyebrows.
For ordinary people, the most skilled method of using Ling Mo's puppeteering ability is completely ineffective. However, spiritual touch deception and interference are extremely effective.
However, the requirement for spiritual power is really very high.
Ling Mo was exhausted after a day of work and hadn't fully recovered. After a brief exchange with Xu Cai, he suddenly felt a wave of headaches.
Xian Cai slowly collapsed onto the ground, and Ling Mo's mouth corners suddenly revealed a hint of a smile.
He slowly walked over, saw Xu staring with wide eyes, still twitching on the ground, and squatted down laughing: "If you didn't have evil intentions towards me, you wouldn't end up in this state now."
Xu Cai was still unable to catch his breath for a while, and although he had an extra knife in his belly, as long as it wasn't pulled out immediately, he wouldn't die right away. However, Xu Cai had already given up all hope at this point, having suffered such severe injuries in the post-apocalyptic world meant certain death.
"Damn... damn it..." Xu Cai's eyes were dim and hopeless, but his mouth still muttered curses.
Ling Mo shook his head regretfully: "Don't worry, I won't kill you that quickly. I heard what you said to Shi Bin just now, your classmates should be acting with you, right? Otherwise, relying on yourself alone, you wouldn't dare take action."
Xu Cai gritted his teeth and didn't speak, he was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth: "You're not a good thing either, watching me kill Shi Bin, you didn't even lift a hand..."
"He's asking for trouble himself, what does it have to do with me?" Ling Mo coldly snorted, "Whether I'm a good person or not doesn't need someone like you to say."
"Less... less nonsense, what else do you want to do to me? I'm about to..." Xu Zai's man really had a ruthless aura, seeing himself on the verge of death, unable to turn back, he actually still revealed a sinister smile.
Ling Mo sneered and used the blade of his dagger to tap against Xu Cai's cheek, his tone icy cold: "I said I wouldn't let you die so quickly, wait for it, something good will happen to you soon."
"What tricks do you have, bring it on, I'm not afraid of you..."
A flash of fear flickered in Xu Cai's eyes, but he still spoke stubbornly.
"Wait." But Ling Mo didn't make a move as he had expected, instead, with an unfathomable smile, he sat down on the steps beside him, watching him with great interest.
Dying is frightening enough, but what's even more terrifying is the process of waiting for death, especially when being stared at by someone like Ling Mo, yet still unable to die for a while.
Xu Zai's heart was filled with regret, terror, despair, but even more so, a sense of unwillingness...
Since the outbreak of the disaster, Xucai clearly understood what kind of person he was. In order to escape from the dormitory, he locked up several of his dormitory brothers and one of them who had mutated together, and then ran away without looking back in their cries.
To survive, he has sacrificed many people. Even today, for a little food, he does not hesitate to use his companions' blood and suffering, awakening the cruelty of those classmates, driving them mad.
Ke Xuzai didn't think he had done anything wrong! He was just trying to survive!
Laws are gone, moral constraints are gone, this world has become a survival of the fittest evolutionary battlefield!
The weak are originally supposed to be stepping stones for the strong, and the weak have no reason to survive...
Xu Zai was thinking to himself while constantly trembling, when he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his abdomen. The flames were burning more and more fiercely in his abdomen, and he even felt like his whole body was about to spontaneously combust!
"What's going on?" Xu suddenly started convulsing violently, his eyes began to cloud over with a layer of blood. In despair and panic, Xu felt the blood in his body burning!
"What's going on!"
Xu had just begun shouting recklessly, but as soon as he uttered the first word, Ling Mo stepped on his mouth: "Be quiet!"
"It's different from when Shana mutated... probably because there wasn't enough of the virus?"
Ling Mo had vaguely discovered that although Xu Chai was struggling non-stop, the blood flowing from his wound wasn't much. On the other hand, he seemed to still be somewhat lucid, but his face was deathly pale, and the muscles on his face were twitching non-stop, as if in great pain.
After using the spiritual touch on his hand, Ling Mo tried to control Xu Cai. At first, the resistance from Xu Cai was very intense, but as his rationality gradually blurred and his eyes began to lose focus, Ling Mo's persistence finally achieved success.
As Ling Mo's spiritual power took over Xu Cai's control of his body, his convulsions suddenly stopped.
"This should be considered half a zombie? Zombie inferior product?" Ling Mo manipulated and let Xu Cai stand up, finding that his situation was still very different from ordinary zombies. The lower the virus purity, the less affected...
Fortunately, the sky was dark, and it's estimated that others would find it difficult to see anything unusual about Xu Cai's eyes. Ling Mo controlled Xu Cai to mess up his hair to cover his eyes, and then buttoned up his jacket to barely conceal the grinding stick inserted in his abdomen, before slowly walking towards the Taekwondo gym.
At first, Xu Cai's movements were a bit strange, but soon he walked more and more smoothly. If it weren't for that expressionless face, probably no one would have thought that the current Xu Cai had actually become a different person.
