Chapter 613: The Ensuing Chaos

Even with their combined strength, facing such a large horde of zombies was challenging, let alone for Ling Mo who was merely human.

Even though Ling Mo had developed some resistance to the virus, it didn’t mean he was completely safe from it.

Who could say whether, beyond a certain threshold, the accumulated virus within Ling Mo might suddenly erupt all at once?

And even if he were lucky enough to escape the threat of infection, the zombies’ ferocious attacks were definitely not to be taken lightly.

The reason ordinary zombies are formidable is their numbers.

Surrounded by an impenetrable circle of zombies, it’s incredibly difficult to remain calm while facing countless talons reaching towards you.

Even the strongest Psychic could be torn to shreds in the next second if they were even slightly distracted in such a situation.

“Why are you all staring at me like that?” Ling Mo had just turned his gaze back when he noticed Ye Lian and the two other women staring intently at him.

He paused, then chuckled and shook his head, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to throw my life away. Look, now they’re all concentrated in one place…”

“And all I need to do is…”

As he spoke, Ling Mo suddenly took a deep breath and stretched out his hand.

With a slight furrow of his brow, his hand began to slowly close from an open position.

“What is he doing?” Mu Chen, hidden around the diagonal corner, watched Ling Mo’s movements with wide eyes.

Xu Shuhan, who had already put on her headphones, responded, “Most Psychics perform a form of mental suggestion on themselves while using their powers. His actions are designed to create a stronger suggestion through physical movement, allowing him to release his powers more accurately and powerfully. Is that so hard to understand?”

After speaking, she cast a disappointed glance at Mu Chen.

“I know that much, okay!” Mu Chen retorted irritably, “I want to know what exactly he plans to do! There are so many zombies here, and he’s not even responding to me. Is he planning to find a way to lead these monsters away, or is he up to something else? We need to agree on a plan before we can act!”

“Luring them away… That probably won’t work,” Xu Shuhan glanced left and right, assessing the surroundings, “This place is all high-rises and large buildings. Even if you were willing to lure them, the chances of escaping alive are slim.”

“Yeah, that’s true… Hey, wait a minute! Why does that sound so awkward to me? Have you already decided it’s going to be me?” Mu Chen was shocked.

Xu Shuhan nodded expressionlessly: “Because it’s very dangerous.”

“So you knew that! Thanks a lot…” Mu Chen said sarcastically.

However, Xu Shuhan seemed as if she hadn’t heard him at all, as her attention had already shifted back to Ling Mo across the way.

Like Mu Chen, she too was curious about Ling Mo’s actions.

Indeed, luring zombies was a dangerous task.

If there was enough time and the right equipment to set up a remote control, that would be ideal. Otherwise, the person responsible for attracting the zombies would be taking a huge risk.

It was a simple truth; no one knew how many more zombies might emerge from the surroundings.

The attracted zombies often weren’t the only threat; there would be a multitude of unwelcome guests popping out from every corner.

If there were a few advanced ones among them, the person luring the zombies would be in deep trouble if surrounded.

In such times, finding the right position to reduce danger was crucial.

A position where one could block the zombies and retreat if necessary, or else face certain death.

Xu Shuhan and her group had neither the time to set up remote controls nor the opportunity to find an ideal location.

Despite feeling helpless, the trio could only wait anxiously on the other side, feeling completely at a loss about the current situation.

Even Mu Chen had to admit, albeit reluctantly, that breaking the deadlock depended on Ling Mo.

As the zombies’ fingers almost touched the alarm, and with no progress in sight, cold sweat began to bead on Mu Chen’s forehead.

As soon as the noise ceased, the zombies would scatter, and both Ling Mo and the group would become the focus of a large horde of zombies.

“Do whatever you’re planning to do, and do it fast!”

Mu Chen gritted his teeth, urging in a low voice.

Xu Shuhan, with her gun at the ready, was also breathing rapidly.

Time seemed to slow down—a zombie’s reaching fingers, the wobbling alarm, and Ling Mo, who was intently focusing on the horde.

“Hurry up!” The eyes of Mu Chen’s trio all conveyed the same message.

Gathered!

Ling Mo’s hand had clenched into a fist, and at the moment his fist formed, the utility pole swarming with zombies and several nearby street lamps began to crackle, crashing down onto the crowd of zombies below.

The zombies, gathered under the utility pole and the alarm, were jostling and staring at the alarm.

A few zombies were flung from the pole first, and with a dull thud, the long concrete pole smashed directly into the mass of zombies.

Some zombies noticed it coming, but due to the sheer number of their kind, they couldn’t dodge in time.

Blood splattered everywhere, and as more street lamps continued to fall, the entire horde was thrown into chaos.

And that alarm, which had drawn their intense attention, went silent the moment it hit the ground…

“Done!”

Ling Mo wiped the sweat from his forehead, a small smile appearing on his face.

Using his Mental power to bring down these objects was certainly a test for him.

But it was a good thing he had absorbed that brain mutant earlier, which allowed Ling Mo to hold on.

Of course, the most important thing was that Ling Mo used some tricks, not just his tentacle to pull.

Moreover, for some reason, after repeatedly consuming large amounts of Mental power, not only did Ling Mo not feel any damage to his Mental Sphere, but it seemed to have become more stable.

But with time pressing, he only took brief note of this before pushing the thought aside.

“Damn! Didn’t see that coming!”

Mu Chen and his companions were utterly stunned by this scene, mouths agape and eyes wide with disbelief.

Not many zombies could be killed by a single utility pole, and the street lamps were even less lethal to them.

However, the injuries inflicted on the zombies, the intense scent of blood, and the chaos caused by the falling pole, sparked a riot within the horde.

As they busied themselves with infighting, Ling Mo and his companions saw their chance to escape.

“How many more tricks does this guy have up his sleeve?” Mu Chen’s look towards Ling Mo became incredibly complex.

He had thought he was beginning to understand this guy, but why did it feel like the more he knew, the less he understood?

Was it better to cooperate with such a person, or to be at odds with him?

Meanwhile, Ling Mo peeked out to assess the situation. He controlled a few zombies close to their position, sending them in a kamikaze charge at the horde, and then quickly turned back and gestured, “Let’s go!”

But before charging out, he turned again to look at Xiao Bai and Yu Shiran, obediently standing at the foot of the stairs.

“Remember what I said, don’t run off again,” Ling Mo instructed.

Yu Shiran pouted and rolled her eyes but ultimately couldn’t withstand Ling Mo’s gaze and nodded dejectedly, dragging out her words, “Alright, I know…”

“Make sure to apologize to Xiao Bai,” Ling Mo added.

“MeGu!”

Xiao Bai either understood Ling Mo’s words or simply reacted to her own name, immediately shaking her head at Ling Mo.

“Alright, let’s move!”

With a wave of his hand, Ling Mo turned and rushed up the stairs.

As he burst through the door, Ling Mo felt his breathing instantly clear.

Just dozens of meters away, hundreds of zombies were engaged in a ferocious battle, blood spraying and limbs flying. The air, thick with the stench of blood that wouldn’t dissipate, felt strangely familiar to Ling Mo.

This was the world he now lived in—filthy, ruined, filled with slaughter and bloodshed, but also with Ye Lian and the others by his side.

“No more crawling underground!”

Ling Mo dashed across the street, gesturing to Mu Chen and his companions as he did so, all the while thinking bitterly to himself.

He stepped over a sewer cover which, probably due to long disuse, wobbled slightly.

Ling Mo glanced back, saw that it hadn’t attracted any zombies, and turned away again.

But just then, that cover, which had stopped moving, suddenly lifted ever so slightly…
