Chapter 1205: The Monster Whose Gaze Can Kill
“Ah!”
The Female Zombie almost shuddered instinctively. Even Ling Mo, just watching from the sidelines, felt a strong sense of terror the moment he met those eyes. He almost acted on impulse… but fortunately, in the next second, he suddenly snapped out of it and quickly regained his composure.
“Ha…” Ling Mo immediately felt a wave of lingering fear. In those eyes… it was as if there was far more bloodshed hidden within them than what was shown on this entire street. Even in the eyes of other Senior Zombies, he had never seen anything like this. This unprecedented sense of crisis nearly made him lose control. At the same time, it also showed that, instinctively… he considered this guy extremely dangerous. Just think, this was only what he saw from a memory. If it were face to face…
“And this isn’t about striking first, but rather that the danger made me anxious… If I really ran into him, I might be mentally shaken before the fight even started. If even I feel this way, what about the others… No wonder the ground is littered with corpses, but there aren’t any of those giant Monsters. The gap in strength is just too great…” Ling Mo’s mood grew heavy… And even knowing the Female Zombie was still alive at this moment, he couldn’t help but worry for her.
“Run!” Ling Mo urged silently in his heart.
At this moment, the only thing the Female Zombie could do was to escape immediately. This Monster was still locked in a standoff with the Spider Queen and might not risk coming over to attack her… No, but that was just wishful thinking… Those eyes staring at the Female Zombie were filled with a cold, malicious smile.
Just from the look in those eyes, Ling Mo could read a single sentence-
“I’ve found you.”
“Run!” Ling Mo shouted in his heart.
The Female Zombie finally reacted. She hurriedly took two steps back, but her foot suddenly bumped into a corpse. Already panicked, she staggered and fell to the ground with a thud.
“Don’t prove the saying that you’ll always trip when running away at a time like this!” Ling Mo was extremely anxious. He was seeing this from a first-person perspective! Even if he couldn’t feel it himself, it was as if he were there in person! Knowing that any delay could mean death, yet still seeing such a mess, it was enough to drive anyone crazy…
But thinking about it, for the Female Zombie in that situation, the instinctive fear brought by such a Senior Zombie of her own kind was just too strong… To restrain herself wasn’t so easy…
“Why isn’t she getting up? Hurry…” Ling Mo’s thought wasn’t even finished when he suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold.
It wasn’t that the Female Zombie wasn’t getting up… but that her body was trembling uncontrollably…
Those eyes seemed… much closer to her now!
“It’s coming…” Ling Mo’s nerves instantly tensed.
When did this happen?
Why had he been staring at him the whole time, yet hadn’t noticed? He didn’t even see when he moved…
“No…”
The Female Zombie struggled desperately… but under the effect of fear, she couldn’t muster much strength…
And as she tried to get up, those eyes drew closer and closer…
Ling Mo could even foresee from the smile in those eyes that if she were caught, the Female Zombie wouldn’t even die quickly…
“What do you want?” At this moment, the Spider Queen spoke.
Those eyes immediately narrowed, then paused.
In fact, from the moment he discovered the Female Zombie to when he started approaching, it all happened in an instant.
But for both Ling Mo and the Female Zombie, that instant felt very long…
“I want to…” Those eyes were still fixed on the Female Zombie.
But the Spider Queen continued, “This isn’t my territory yet… So if you want to fight for it, go ahead.”
“Hmm?” The Monster in the Mist immediately turned to look at the Spider Queen.
The Female Zombie finally breathed a sigh of relief, her whole body going limp.
“Little Spider… no, what Stella just said…” Ling Mo immediately listened nervously. Who knew how much longer the Female Zombie would linger here? What if this memory ended right here? The more it was like this, the more he couldn’t miss any detail. Ɽ𝐀ΝΟᛒÈṣ
“You mean… you’ll fight for it too, right?” the Monster asked.
The Spider Queen’s tone finally changed a little… She seemed to laugh: “Fair competition, isn’t it?”
“Hahaha… Not bad! You’re provoking us! But maybe you don’t know? From what we’ve learned, in the whole country, your place is one of the most prosperous unclaimed territories. There are two others… but not long ago, they were wiped out by neighboring kindred forces. The surviving Zombies became fertilizer… and the humans were either eaten or captured…” The Monster smiled as he spoke. But what he said shocked both the Spider Queen and Ling Mo.
The whole country? Neighboring forces? Wiped out? These three keywords combined in Ling Mo’s mind, and he instantly came to a chilling conclusion-these Zombies had already started dividing up territory nationwide… And X City was a blood-soaked cake with no BOSS, so everyone could take a piece… This Monster was one of them…
And… they even captured humans!
Ling Mo immediately thought of that Dominant Level Zombie who had just tried to recruit him… Could that guy’s actions be related to this memory of the Female Zombie…
“Your place will become just like those,” the Monster continued.
The Spider Queen didn’t speak for a while, and Ling Mo was also deep in thought…
Since these Zombies had already divided up their territories, it was no surprise they’d target a place like X City. War between territories was too costly. But attacking an unclaimed area like this? That was much easier. Senior Zombies like the Spider Queen, who could threaten them, were still a minority. Most Zombies, even if highly evolved, were isolated and weak, unable to resist them.
“So what?” the Spider Queen finally spoke again, coldly retorting, “I need evolution… For that, I need the support of millions of Zombies. I can’t give up.”
“Hahaha… Don’t be so tense.” The Monster in the Mist suddenly changed his tone, becoming cheerful again. “I admit, you may not have the strength of a Lord of the City yet, but you’re still a tough opponent. And… your evolution speed is ridiculously fast… Like just now, when you killed my kindred, your technique was much more skillful than before.”
“What are you trying to say?” the Spider Queen interrupted him.
“Hahahahaha…” The Monster laughed for a while, then said, “Bring it up.”
“Thud, thud, thud…”
A series of heavy footsteps sounded again.
Ling Mo’s heart skipped a beat: “So there really is more…”
Soon, a huge figure appeared in the gradually dissipating mist.
“But… what did he mean by ‘bring it up’…”
As Ling Mo was thinking, his pupils suddenly contracted…
That huge figure slowly raised its Arm… and in its hand, it was holding a figure nearly half its size…
That person had a broken gun slung on his back, his hands flailing in the air, his feet kicking desperately… His hoarse cries finally came out after the footsteps faded…
“Help… help! Help me!”
“Why did you bring this human out?” the Spider Queen asked.
The Monster didn’t answer immediately, but said, “Look at this human. Even at this point, he’s still begging for his life. If he’s survived this long, he should know that for ordinary Zombies, begging for mercy from food is useless, and might even have the opposite effect. For example, it makes us more excited, more hungry… But why is he still begging?”
“Humans have a strong will to survive. Some people, even in despair, instinctively don’t want to give up… So what?” the Spider Queen asked again.
“Yes… But don’t you think that’s a troublesome thing?”
