Chapter 1107 – Friction in the Darkness, Like the Footsteps of a Demon

“Thinking about it this way…”

That Zombie can make Ling Mo sense its emotions out of thin air, even giving Ling Mo a certain degree of realism. This shows that its psychic power must be extremely terrifying… Such a Zombie, if it really didn’t want Ling Mo to discover it, it seems it could easily do so…

“No, that’s not right, it’s not ‘seems,’ it’s definitely possible!” Ling Mo looked up at the corpse of the Finished Product, his heart tightening. “This guy can avoid my Sensing, can’t it? Although I don’t know what method it used, it must be related to that Zombie! Damn… I didn’t realize this earlier, but the biggest flaw in the whole thing is actually this ‘Finished Product’!”

“In that case, what can be confirmed is that the Zombie deliberately let me discover it. So what is its purpose in doing this?” Ling Mo’s thoughts raced, “Right, it’s to make me aware that it has intentions toward me… It knows what our purpose is as humans coming here, so there’s no way we’d just leave the granary. And to eliminate the threat, since we don’t know its location, we can only…”

As the threads of the situation gradually became clear in Ling Mo’s mind, his pupils suddenly contracted. He immediately turned his head to look down and quickly lowered himself: “Go check on that woman!” The group below had already noticed the blood rain falling from above… When that fresh blood suddenly poured down from the sky, they were startled, but right after, a group of Female Zombies were the first to breathe a sigh of relief. “It’s not Ling-Ge,” Xia Na explained simply, then stretched on tiptoe to observe the battle. But although their eyesight was good, it was blocked by the mass of corpses and Spider Silk. They could hardly see anything substantial…

“What the hell is going on up there? It’s like a basin of blood just dumped from the sky, no warning at all!” Mu Chen said. But in fact, the blood rain was falling in a corner; although they saw it, it wasn’t enough to get them drenched in corpse blood on the spot. Besides, they all had enough reaction ability for this…

“They must’ve found the Finished Product, right? As expected, the research on that big Spider and that Zombie has already succeeded… What they made afterward was just to try mass production… But I don’t know what exactly it is that makes them go to such lengths. And I think the main part of this is probably still for that Zombie, right? The big Spider being able to take down all of Dawn Town unharmed is mostly because it’s a puppet.” Xia Na analyzed. “The woman…”

“The person…”

Yuwen Xuan looked up and happened to see a Dark Shadow falling from the sky. With a “thud,” he instinctively closed his eyes… When he opened them again, aside from his face splattered with blood, there was also a corpse lying at his feet… The skin of this corpse was nearly transparent, obviously due to massive blood loss. Besides that, its eyes looked extremely hollow and dull, like a soulless wax figure…

But for it to die like this, it already had no soul. So Yuwen Xuan just glanced at it, then wiped his face while shouting, “Damn, who’s throwing corpses around! It might not hit anyone, but this splash damage is something else! My suit… Hey, by the way,” Yuwen Xuan howled for a couple of lines, then suddenly asked seriously, “Who did you say to watch out for just now?”

Ling Mo also landed lightly on the ground at this moment. As soon as he steadied himself, he immediately said, “It’s the one we just knocked out!”

“Didn’t we leave her in the room?” Xu Shuhan asked.

“Yes… but there’s something wrong with her! Never mind, no time to explain.” Ling Mo waved his hand, glanced around, and immediately contacted Black Silk, “Where are you guys?”

“We just called Gu Shuangshuang and the others in, now Shiran and I are here getting ready to ambush that Zombie…”

Black Silk hadn’t finished speaking when Ling Mo hurriedly said, “Listen to me, it’s not just that Zombie, you also need to watch out for that woman! Wait…” Suddenly his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked, “You said Gu Shuangshuang… Where are they now?”

“I gave them directions, they’re probably heading your way,” Black Silk said.

Ling Mo immediately looked up at the group: “Gu Shuangshuang and the others are in danger…”

Seeing Ling Mo’s expression, everyone’s hearts instantly skipped a beat…

At the same time, in the passage…

Tap tap…

Soft footsteps continued to sound, while a beam from a Flashlight kept swaying, slowly approaching the depths of the passage.

Gu Shuangshuang walked in front holding the Flashlight, her face showing a trace of panic. She nervously looked at the walls on both sides, even paying attention to her feet. Not far behind them was the corpse wall that Ling Mo and the others had dug open…

“Don’t worry, there shouldn’t be that many corpses behind us,” Skinny Monkey tiptoed along behind, his voice trembling a bit.

“Y-yeah…” Gu Shuangshuang forced out a faint smile, “The captain and the others are just ahead, and these paths… they just walked through them, so there’s nothing to be afraid of…”

“Yeah…” Skinny Monkey also gave a dry laugh in response.

The two fell silent, but listening to the echo of their footsteps and thinking about the corpse wall that could appear at any moment, both couldn’t help but show a chill of fear on their faces…

“Um… can you walk a little lighter…” Gu Shuangshuang finally couldn’t help but speak.

Skinny Monkey was stunned, then said doubtfully, “I’m already light, aren’t you the one walking heavy…”

“What…” Gu Shuangshuang pursed her lips, simply stopped walking, listened for a moment, then said helplessly, “See, you’re the heavy one.”

Tap… tap…

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Gu Shuangshuang waited a second, but got no response. She turned around and saw Skinny Monkey standing there in a daze…

“I was just talking about the sound, are you mad?” Gu Shuangshuang sighed and asked, shining the Flashlight toward Skinny Monkey.

But the moment Skinny Monkey’s face appeared in the light, Gu Shuangshuang froze.

He was looking at her with an extremely terrified expression, trembling as he said, “When… when you stopped just now… I stopped too…”

Gu Shuangshuang thought for a second, and immediately felt a bone-chilling cold shoot from her feet to the top of her head: “If… I didn’t make a sound, and you didn’t make a sound, then… then the extra footsteps… who made them?”

As soon as she finished speaking, another sound came from the darkness…

Tap… tap…

This sound appeared behind her…
