Chapter 236 – The Terrifying Snake Kiss

“Don’t be nervous, it’s not like I’ve grown actual fangs. But you should know how strong my constriction ability is.”

Li Yalin’s sinister eyes remained fixed on Ling Mo, her gaze wandering up and down: “So, if I wanted to break it, it wouldn’t be difficult. That thin membrane could suddenly contract, causing you injury…”

Ling Mo swallowed hard, a sudden thought flashing through his mind鈥”how lucky he was that Ban Yue hadn’t taken Dick from him!

What he didn’t know was that Ban Yue didn’t fight back because she was deceived by her own mistaken beliefs and bodily reactions.

“Li Yalin, what are you trying to achieve by threatening me?”

Ling Mo took a deep breath, trying to appear calm.

Anyone who knew their Dick had been in and out of danger countless times would hardly remain composed…

Fortunately, although Li Yalin’s words were terrifying, she would never actually harm Ling Mo.

This was determined by their psychic link, and also by the special feelings they shared.

After all, to Li Yalin, Ling Mo was her mate.

And this was equally true for Ye Lian and Xia Na.

Li Yalin smiled slightly, glancing at Xia Na and Ye Lian: “It’s nothing, I was actually saying that for their benefit.”

Xia Na paused, then a strange smile appeared on her face: “I understand…”

She whispered something into Ye Lian’s ear, and Ye Lian gave Ling Mo a deep look: “So… that’s how it is…”

“What do you mean by ‘that’s how it is’?”

Ling Mo instinctively sensed something was amiss.

As the three female zombies gradually regained their memories and intelligence, their attitudes towards Ling Mo became increasingly unified.

This was definitely not a good sign for Ling Mo!

But on second thought, once Xia Na’s personality fully integrated and Ye Lian’s memory and intelligence fully returned, their characters might change.

Maybe then they wouldn’t be so easily led astray. Hopefully…

“You’ll find out in due time. But for now, let’s find that mutation beast,” Xia Na said with a smile, turning her attention to their surroundings.

Ling Mo could only reluctantly shift his focus to the area around them.

At this moment, Black Silk was sniffing around, trying to locate the powerful Mutation Beast that might be hiding nearby.

However, it neither recklessly charged into the waist-high grass and woods nor directly entered the nearby buildings.

This behavior further confirmed Ling Mo’s suspicion.

Even Black Silk sensed something was off around here…

But the more they felt something was off, the quieter the place seemed to the naked eye.

There wasn’t even a hint of wind…

“Should we split up to search?” Ling Mo hesitated slightly.

In terms of physical strength, Ling Mo was naturally the weakest, and in terms of attracting Mutation Beasts, he was the strongest.

Splitting up would clearly be disadvantageous for him.

“Damn it, why don’t you come out and eat me already!”

Ling Mo muttered in frustration. He thought for a moment and decided to pick up a few stones, planning to throw them at the building windows.

This task was actually quite difficult since the glass was very thick…

“I… I’ll do it.”

Ye Lian volunteered to take the stones. Without much aiming, she suddenly leaped into the air and swung her arm in a wide arc.

“Bang!”

“Crash!”

A loud noise immediately came from the building ahead. The thick glass was completely shattered by the stone Ye Lian had thrown.

“Bang!”

“Bang bang!”

The continuous loud noises echoed, and Ye Lian’s incredible accuracy and strength left Ling Mo in awe.

This noise was enough to draw out any hidden Mutation Beasts.

In fact, a few Second Stage Mutation Beasts that had been hiding far away now appeared within Ling Mo’s line of sight. The loud noises were indeed effective.

“Great job! Let Black Silk handle those. You guys stay put. If the big one is still around, it should be coming out soon.”

Ling Mo gripped his Tang Sword tightly, watching his surroundings cautiously.

Just as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly attacked from behind.

Ling Mo’s first reaction was to twist his body and swing his Tang Sword. However, the blade unexpectedly struck a hard object, producing a sharp “clang.”

Simultaneously, Ling Mo felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and his Tang Sword nearly flew out of his hand.

A large shadow suddenly appeared before his eyes. Despite its quick movements, it hesitated for just a moment as it approached him.

At that instant, a hand reached in from the other side, grabbing him and swiftly pulling him away. They leaped back twice, putting about ten meters between them and the attacker.

The one who pulled him away was Li Yalin. If not for her incredible speed and agility, Ling Mo would likely have been ensnared by now.

His attacker turned out to be a massive Python, as thick as a water barrel…

Having failed its ambush, the gigantic Python coiled its body and raised its head high, its cold eyes fixed on Ling Mo while it continuously flicked its tongue.

“Damn… it’s a Leader-Level… a Fourth Stage…”

Ling Mo stared at the enormous Python, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

His reaction had been incredibly fast. If it had been an ordinary Mutation Beast, it would have been sliced in half.

However, his powerful strike had only left a shallow wound on this Python.

In the moment he was about to be ensnared, Ling Mo had used psychic strangulation, and with Li Yalin’s timely assistance, he managed to escape.

A Mutation Beast at the peak of the Third Stage is already enough to contend with a Leader-Level Zombie, due to the inherent individual differences afforded by natural advantages.

The Python before him was entirely red, with blood-red eyes and vertical pupils that were a bright amber color.

These eyes, so similar to Li Yalin’s, were clearly the mark of a Leader-Level creature…

“Damn it…”

Ling Mo flexed his wrist, grasping his Tang Sword tightly with both hands, and stared nervously at the Fourth Stage Mutation Python.

Facing a monstrous snake as thick as a water barrel, claiming he wasn’t scared would be a lie.

Yet, what Ling Mo felt more than fear was excitement.

He had just managed to escape an ambush; he could certainly fight in battle. But if he fled now, finding another suitable Mutation Python in the future would be exceedingly difficult.

After all, this was X City, not some wild jungle!

Li Yalin had let go of Ling Mo and twisted the Snake Kiss on her wrist.

The cold look in her peculiar eyes matched that of the Python exactly!

In that brief moment, Ye Lian and Xia Na had also managed to injure the Python, but they only left a few small cuts.

The pain seemed to enrage the Fourth Stage Mutation Python, and it violently whipped its tail.

“Whoosh!”

A gust of wind rushed at them, forcing Ling Mo and the others to retreat. However, a Second Stage Mutation Tiger that Black Silk had just thrown over was hit by the tail.

“Thud!”

Ling Mo watched in horror as the Mutation Tiger was sent flying upon contact with the tail. It landed heavily like a broken sack, rolled a few times, and then convulsed, bleeding profusely until it died.

“So powerful…”

The king of beasts was instantly killed by this Fourth Stage Mutation Python…

The tail also snapped two small trees and swept over a pond.

The foul-smelling water splashed out, but luckily, Ling Mo and the others had retreated to a safe distance.

“This thing is too strong.”

Ling Mo was astounded by the destructive power of the Fourth Stage Mutation Python. As a Mutation Beast, it had a natural advantage in size and strength.

If the pond water hadn’t been so foul, Black Silk, with its keen sense of smell, might have detected the Python’s stench earlier.

Unfortunately, the environment worked in its favor…

“We can’t fight it here. Lure it to the visitor center ahead!”

Ling Mo quickly realized that the terrain was too advantageous for the Python and too restrictive for them.

The visitor center, with its numerous columns and two floors, would be a much better battleground where they could wear it down!

Even if the battle went poorly, the terrain would allow them to escape safely, which was much better than risking it here.

“Black Silk, go lure it! If you can keep it running for a lap, I’ll give you a piece of Virus Gel tonight!”

Ling Mo shouted quickly.

His speed was no match for the Fourth Stage Mutation Python, and among Ye Lian and the three girls, only Li Yalin had a significant speed advantage, but she needed to conserve her energy for the upcoming fight.

While Zombies had strong stamina, Mutation Beasts excelled even more in this area, so conserving energy was crucial.

Black Silk, unafraid, roared and charged forward. It leaped high and used its claws to tear off a large patch of snake scales.
