Chapter 702: Murderous Intent Lurks In The Bathroom

Even the most meticulous disguise has a chance of being exposed. The best way to handle it would be to blow up this ‘head bomb’ altogether. Anyone could think of that!

However… it seems like the other party has a ‘if it can be killed, kill it; if not, no big deal’ attitude…

If they were truly determined to eliminate them using this opportunity, they would have taken the risk to hide and strike at the opportune moment.

Though personally getting involved would indeed be dangerous, as even Mu Chen is highly vigilant… without taking risks, where are the rewards? Survivors, although highly valuing their lives, most could still go all out when driven to desperation.

If they could risk their lives for a pack of crackers, how much more for a bigger temptation…

“Could it be… a test?” Ling Mo immediately thought of this possibility.

The more he considered it, the more likely it seemed… the real mastermind hiding in the dark, observing them safely…

Fortunately, Ling Mo had a mental ability, which from an outsider’s perspective, was invisible and undetectable.

Even another superhuman with mental abilities would unlikely be able to tell what methods were being used at first glance.

Moreover, after discovering this corpse, Ling Mo no longer believed the opposition to be another superhuman with mental abilities…

This had nothing to do with psychic power!

Conversely, it was confirmed that the other party lacked the ability to probe mental energy activity tracks; otherwise, they would have detected the zombie puppet’s abnormality long ago…

The other party was testing Ling Mo, but Ling Mo had also learned quite a bit.

“Leaving such crucial evidence untouched, it’s either overconfidence or the belief that, even if discovered, no one can figure out what it is, hence they act fearlessly… Well, with such a bizarre ability, blind confidence is understandable.”

Ling Mo glanced at the piece of torn cloth in the zombie puppet’s hand and smirked coldly.

Taking advantage of the fact that the little zombie puppet wouldn’t be affected, Ling Mo controlled it to carefully sniff the liquid.

He could confirm that the fluid contained zombie blood, but for some reason, the virus’s scent wasn’t strong.

“No… It’s not that it isn’t strong, it’s that the virus smells different from other zombies.” Ling Mo’s brow furrowed instantly. The other components in the liquid didn’t smell like any potion either; rather, it seemed to be secreted from inside a zombie.

Zombies have a keen sense of smell, so they can easily distinguish chemical substances.

“But what kind of zombie would produce this liquid? And if there really is such a zombie, extracting its liquid wouldn’t be easy…”

Ling Mo shifted his gaze to the zombie’s corpse. This body was merely a vessel, yet it carried no human scent whatsoever.

How exactly did it get here?

There was a layer of dust on the ground, but other than the little zombie puppet’s fresh tracks, there was only one other set of footprints.

A quick comparison revealed that they belonged to this zombie.

“Did it walk in on its own?” The conclusion was startling, but Ling Mo only paused briefly before regaining his composure.

Just like others wouldn’t suspect his connection with zombies, at times like these, any outlandish guess might actually be the final answer.

The impossible could become reality…

However, mere speculation couldn’t serve as a conclusion. Ling Mo mentally noted these details, controlled the little zombie puppet to tuck the strip of cloth into its pocket, and then turned to leave.

He could still hear Black Silk outside, chattering away and thoroughly exploring a small area, which amused Ling Mo.

This level of intelligence is definitely not typical for a mutation beast. It seemed this mysterious creature had indeed abandoned physical evolution, focusing solely on brain mutations.

Even though Black Silk’s appearance didn’t change much this time, the main evolution was mental.

Given time, Black Silk might truly develop into a creature with intelligence nearly equal to that of humans.

And that was Ling Mo’s conservative estimate…

But no matter how you look at it, with Yu Shiran standing right in front of him, yet another soul dwelling inside, the feeling was indescribably awkward…

Ling Mo couldn’t help but think: Zombies evolving is one thing, but the evolution directions of these mutation beasts are all over the place. What terrifying creatures might they evolve into in the future?

As soon as the little zombie puppet stepped out, it promptly slammed the restroom door shut with a “smack.”

Once the scent was sealed off, Black Silk immediately perked up, her eyes widening as she scanned her surroundings.

The hallucinations before her were likely beginning to dissipate…

“After all that fuss for a few minutes, it turns out it was just about closing a restroom door… No wonder they say to always close the door behind you. Nowadays, restrooms can quite literally be deadly with their stench…”

So this is what they call being full of hidden dangers, huh!

In the past, Ling Mo only thought of restrooms as places to hide zombies. Little did he know they could now also cause hallucinations…

However, rather than being hallucinations, it seemed that inhaling this virus caused strong reactions.

It was likely similar to the way drugs work but much more ferocious.

Ling Mo waited beside her for less than a minute until Black Silk suddenly snapped back to full consciousness.

She shivered violently, and her eyes gradually regained focus.

To Ling Mo’s surprise, as soon as she woke up, her psychic fluctuations spiked dramatically, and a hint of frenzy flashed in her eyes.

But given that she’s a high-level mutation creature, she quickly calmed down and looked at the little zombie puppet with some confusion.

Yu Shiran wouldn’t feel any familiarity toward the little zombie puppet, but Black Silk was different.

Although she didn’t know it was being controlled by Ling Mo, she figured it must have something to do with him.

So instead of giving in to her impulse to swat the puppet, she curiously examined it…

Ling Mo, on the other hand, was puzzled. It seemed the little zombie puppet didn’t suffer any aftereffects because the psychic link was cut but rather because it had escaped the hallucinations…

But how could that be?

Just then, a deeper sense of unease welled up, and a faint noise from behind Ling Mo reached his ears.

Though faint, Ling Mo immediately turned around warily to look at the mall’s stairwell door.

There was indeed a sound…

Could it be that something had happened in the mall?

“Wake up!”

Ling Mo grabbed Mu Chen and shook him vigorously.

The force of the karate chop had been controlled precisely, only knocking Mu Chen out without causing further damage.

However, a period of dizziness would be inevitable with that heavy blow…

After a few shakes, Mu Chen finally groggily opened his eyes. The first thing he did was shout, “My head…”

“Who cares about your head!”

Seeing that Mu Chen was awake, Ling Mo immediately tossed him aside while sending out a series of psychic commands.

He then dashed towards the door, his sight already shifting to Ye Lian.

When it came to matters involving Ye Lian and the others, Ling Mo always became lavish with his use of psychic power…

At that moment, he could vaguely sense numerous psychic light clusters behind the mall’s door, all of them fluctuating wildly…

While trapped in the hallucination, all of Ling Mo’s senses had been sealed off, leaving him completely unaware of the situation outside.

Now, upon sensing the commotion, Ling Mo quickly pieced everything together.

The main purpose of the other side was probing… and delaying!

In just those few minutes, the situation inside the mall had dramatically changed.

All those intense psychic fluctuations represented a horrifying fact.

The zombies… had gone on a rampage!

Ling Mo didn’t recklessly charge into the mall. Ye Lian and the others were senior zombies, and Xu Shuhan could barely be considered a half-zombie. But Ling Mo was different. With his level of attraction to zombies, walking out now would be akin to holding a loudspeaker and announcing “A human is here, come eat me.”

Soft thudding noises constantly emanated from the mall. As soon as the door was cracked open, a faint scent of blood wafted out.

In the split second his vision shifted, Ling Mo saw a grimacing zombie in front of him get its head sliced off. Blood spurted wildly while the detached head flew into the air, but the arms were still swinging.

Ye Lian swiftly dodged aside, kicking another lunging zombie to the ground in the process.

The scene before him was filled with blood!
