Chapter 1346: Three Straight Draws: Straight Flush!
On the Square, blood flowed like a river, but a few hundred meters away, a mutation panda suddenly crept out of an Alley, wobbling as it walked onto the empty street.
This panda was now even smaller than an ordinary adult panda by a Number 1, looking adorably clumsy. However, its little red eyes, gleaming with a cold gleam, made it clear that anyone who thought it survived by being cute was in for trouble.
While Ling Mo and the others were infiltrating the Falcon, Xiao Bai hadn’t been idle either. Quite a few Senior Zombies in the area, as well as two or three mutation beasts lying in wait, had all fallen under its claws. After Devouring these prey, its body naturally underwent some changes. This was all thanks to Ling Mo’s instructions, using Central City’s evolution system. The Zombies it ate were mutated, or had mutation abilities, and their evolution level was similar to its own; the same went for mutation beasts.
Sure enough, after a few rounds, the gains were much greater than when it usually Devoured ordinary Zombie Gel. Especially the effect of those mutation genes on it… Now, although it waddled with pigeon-toed steps, its round body moving like a ball squirming across the ground, its aura was as terrifying and mysterious as a giant beast.
After confirming that all the Zombies nearby had been summoned to the Square, Xiao Bai shook its bighead, and a new brilliance appeared in its eyes-more lively, deeper, and brighter.
Ling Mo Controlled Xiao Bai to take two steps back, then, like a furry cannonball, it shot out. This mutation panda made no sound when running to begin with. Now, even the wind it stirred was silent; its four short legs moved without even turning, and whether it was a fallen utility pole or an abandoned vehicle ahead, it crossed as if walking on flat ground. Of course, there were still risks in doing this…
“Bang!”
Xiao Bai crashed through a wall, then crawled out of the Mist covered in dust, shook its head, and once again picked a direction to charge out…
Ling Mo’s main body felt his face flush with embarrassment… Ahem, how humiliating, but luckily he cut off the “live broadcast” in time.
But when he looked up, Li Yalin and the other Female Zombies were staring at him in confusion. Clearly, they didn’t understand why the Consciousness Web in their minds had suddenly been cut off. Xia Na’s eyes darted, and suddenly a sly smile appeared on her face.
Damn, they figured it out.
Ling Mo coughed dryly, but pretended not to notice, turning instead to Anan in front of him. The little girl was using her hand to move a simple area map drawn by Black Silk on paper, slowly shifting it around.
“Here… then… here…”
She was Sensing the aura of Central City’s Zombies.
And this was one of the trump cards Ling Mo had drawn.
Whether it was the Spider Queen or those Central City Zombies, they probably never imagined that Ling Mo still had Anan in his hand.
The Central City Zombies should have known… but they never expected that Ling Mo had a way to keep Anan from mutating.
For someone like Anan, who had mutated through a cocoon, she was actually impossible to Control, let alone communicate with. This essentially eliminated the “only” variable. However, this “only” didn’t mean much to Ling Mo.
He now understood that the “Titan” Zombies he’d encountered before were all transformed by this kind of “cocoon.” Their psychic consciousness hadn’t completely reverted to instinct due to mutation, but instead became more deranged. Since they were mentally deranged, their thoughts became even more unpredictable, and such chaotic psychic light clusters had an extremely low success rate of being Controlled.
That was one aspect; on the other hand, Ling Mo didn’t intend to let this little girl suffer that kind of pain. After settling down these past few days, the little girl’s defenses had clearly softened a bit, her expression was no longer so cold, and she would occasionally stare blankly at the buildings outside, showing a look of sadness that couldn’t quite turn into tears. Wang Lin and Lin Luanqiu were both helping Ling Mo, but they still took time to play with her. Maybe after a while, she would become more like an ordinary little girl.
But she preferred to follow Ling Mo. Even when Yu Shiran occasionally hung upside down from the Ceiling to scare her, she still liked to follow behind like a little tagalong. And this seemed to be all because of what Ling Mo had told her: “You’ll be fine.”
She believed Ling Mo; such a big Boss surely wouldn’t lie.
But when he said this, everyone’s expressions became strange.
Wouldn’t lie? That’s only good enough to fool little kids!
Well, she really was just a little kid…
But in this matter, Ling Mo really hadn’t lied to her. He’d been busy for two days, then suddenly brought her in front of him and said with a smile, “Come, let me help you stop this thing from growing.”
He did as he said. And his method was simple… Close the door, release the master ball and Black Silk!
The master ball absorbed the little bit of psychic power from the cocoon, turning it from a living Creature into a true lump of flesh.
Then Black Silk followed up, inserting silver thread into its body, following the “roots” that had grown into Anan’s body, and sucked it into a half-dead state. ȓάΝ𝘖BЕ𐌔
The energy in the “roots” was all absorbed, and the entire “root” became as if dead, most of it falling off Anan’s internal organs.
Only one root remained, still twitching nonstop, looking extremely bizarre.
“This one can’t be moved. When brother catches those foreign zombies, we’ll have them take it out the same way they put it in.” Ling Mo patted Anan’s head as he spoke.
Anan, whose eyes had never shed tears, immediately squeezed out two drops: “Thank you, Uncle!”
Ling Mo sighed at once. Sigh, the title of creepy Uncle was set in stone now…
Although the cocoon had been beaten back to its “original form,” the Sensing Ability was still there.
Under Anan’s guidance, Xiao Bai kept changing direction, quickly moving toward the Central City Zombies.
Those Zombies also had strong Sensing, and were extremely wary of other Zombies, but not necessarily of mutation beasts…
This was Ling Mo’s second trump card, also something no one would expect.
But Ling Mo had a third trump card… He took out his Communicator and made a call.
“Madman!”
On the other end, Yuwen Xuan’s voice was no different from when he was alive: “Ahahaha, we’re already nearby!”
Beside Yuwen Xuan, Ting stood holding an axe, while Chuchu was still as perfect as a puppet, expressionless and motionless, only glancing at Yuwen Xuan from time to time, her mind thinking of another human face: “I knew he was up to no good.”
As for behind them, there were over a hundred Zombies.
Real Senior Zombies.
