Chapter 450 – The Most Dangerous Thing Is the Aged One

“Ahhhhh!”

Lucy’s shrieks were incessant, and Ling Mo, who was at the forefront, felt as though his eardrums were about to burst.

This woman usually kept a stern face, who would have thought she was so afraid of snakes!

“Most girls are probably terrified of snakes… Spending too much time with those dumb female zombies, I forgot what normal girls are like. I should have left her outside…”

Ling Mo said regretfully. The path ahead wasn’t blocked yet, but with Lucy in this state, it was unlikely she’d hear anything he said.

At this moment, more mutation pythons of various sizes were emerging from the gaps around them.

The sight was extremely horrifying, even Ling Mo felt his scalp tingling.

Ye Lian and the others had already retreated to Ling Mo’s side, surrounding him in the center.

The mutation pythons didn’t attack immediately; they coiled around nearby trees or pillars, their cold, blood-red eyes fixated on Ling Mo, with hissing sounds filling the air.

“This number… something’s not right!”

Ling Mo was still struggling to carry Lucy. Seeing so many snakes and a mutilated mutation python corpse beside her, Lucy refused to get down.

It was as if the moment her feet touched the ground, those terrifying reptiles would entangle her.

“But… could you at least consider your own weight…”

Ling Mo’s face turned red from the strain. This was truly a case of “you don’t know until you carry, once you carry, you can’t stand”… Lucy’s weight was unbearable!

A machine gun, some rations and water, bullets, spare gun barrels…

It’s a killer!

“Ahhh! Don’t put me down, don’t put me down!”

Lucy clung to Ling Mo’s neck, screaming.

“Okay… I won’t put you down… But could you stop choking my neck…”

Ling Mo said with difficulty. He struggled to pry Lucy off, but her strength was overwhelming.

“Didn’t you say your superpower was useless… This tiger-like strength, is it my imagination…”

After several failed attempts, Ling Mo had no choice but to give up, panting heavily.

More mutation pythons continued to emerge, quickly occupying the nearby high ground.

“Oh… right! Snakes can reproduce! But this is way too much! A whole batch at once! This is truly a snake pit…”

Despite the shocking scene, Ling Mo was actually overjoyed.

Up until now, he hadn’t seen any other mutation beasts. Clearly, they had either already fled the zoo or been devoured by these mutation snakes as nutrients.

There were very few zombies around, and no corpses were in sight, likely taken care of by the snakes as well.

Nearby, there was also an amusement park, whose zombies had likely sustained the snakes up to this point…

In any case, with each new snake appearing, it meant one more mutation snake gel!

“Hiss hiss!”

The snakes coiled on the high ground, raising their heads to stare at Ling Mo.

The injured barrel mutation python also held its head high. Its eye had been scratched by Li Yalin, but it wasn’t blinded, just bloodshot.

As a leader-level zombie, Li Yalin’s strength was unimaginable. A light scratch from her snake kiss could easily decapitate, which was just a minor scene.

Yet, this kind of bone-crushing power, when applied to the fragile eyeball, only made it bleed slightly…

“Hmph, it actually blocked with a layer of gooey eye mucus.” Li Yalin scoffed.

“Just eye mucus! Can that be explained away as eye mucus! Old eye mucus?”

Ling Mo squinted, noticing that the mutation python’s eyeball seemed to be covered with a semi-transparent white membrane. Li Yalin’s snake kiss had been blocked by this membrane.

“Is this membrane really that tough? It can’t even be pierced with a knife…”

The barrel mutation python kept its eyes fixed on Ling Mo, along with the other mutation pythons focusing their gaze on him…

This feeling of being surrounded and ridiculed made Ling Mo extremely uncomfortable…

“Hiss—!”

The barrel mutation python suddenly whipped its tail. Just as Ling Mo and his group’s attention was entirely drawn to it, the smaller mutation pythons shot out like arrows.

Though they were considered small, even the smallest were thicker than an arm, while the larger ones were as thick as a waist.

So many mutation pythons were swiftly slithering closer, causing Lucy to tightly shut her eyes and shake Ling Mo’s neck vigorously. “Ahhhhh!”

“You’re… you’re choking me to death…”

Dizzy from the shaking, Ling Mo immediately created an invisible circle of psychic tentacles around them.

The first mutation pythons to reach them collided with this layer of psychic tentacles. Despite their strong impact, they were immediately sent flying backward.

Getting hit by the psychic tentacles was equivalent to being struck by Ling Mo’s psychic power. Almost every python that was hit slithered around on the ground dazedly, unable to launch another attack right away.

Ye Lian and the others quickly moved forward, hacking away.

Their movements seemed chaotic, but with the zombies’ calmness and frenzy, each strike was aimed at the vital points of the mutation pythons.

For a moment, red snakes flew, and the female zombies weaved through them, their movements light and dance-like. Amidst the flashes of cold light, sprays of blood blossomed.

Nana emerged from Xia Na’s shadow, and the separated Black Na wielded a scythe, her movements swift and agile.

As the cold light flashed forward, she had just slain a mutation python. She immediately turned with her scythe, the blade following her movement, drawing a dazzling arc that sliced another leaping mutation python in half.

The spiritual body Nana, holding a blood-red scythe, moved just as quickly.

Though her psychic power wasn’t materialized, making it impossible to directly harm the mutation pythons, she could throw their psychic power into chaos, causing them to lose control of their bodies instantly.

Paired with Black Na, they were like a meat grinder, terrifyingly efficient.

Yu Shiran coordinated with Black Silk. Since Lucy had her eyes tightly shut, she didn’t notice the silver threads flying right past her.

Once the silver threads entangled a mutation python, Yu Shiran would immediately pounce.

Though she appeared to be just a little girl, her attacks were brutally savage, embodying the essence of a wild zombie.

She would first grab the mutation python’s head, then stomp on its tail, and with a shout of “Hmph!” and a furrowed brow, she would exert her strength with her tiny hands.

“Squish!”

After a bizarre squelching sound, a bloody, flattened piece of flesh would fly from the zombie loli’s hands, landing on the ground with her cheerful exclamation…

These mutation pythons had thick skins and tough scales. Even though the female zombies were all incredibly powerful, they couldn’t defeat them instantly.

Ling Mo, on the other hand, was focused on that barrel mutation python…

For some reason, this barrel mutation python gave him a sense of déjà vu.

Moreover, the way it looked at him wasn’t purely cold.

“Snakes are cold-blooded animals. No matter how much they evolve, they shouldn’t have emotions… Could it be that it has consumed too many zombie virus gels?”

Ling Mo was startled by this thought. However, he did feel that the way this mutation python looked at him had a kind of “Ah, finally found you” vibe.

“But I don’t know it… even if I did, it would be because I let it go back then…”

Being stared at by it made Ling Mo’s skin crawl, and he had a vague sense that something was wrong.

This creature hadn’t attacked for a while but was continuously writhing its body, and it had sent out so many smaller mutation pythons to draw fire…

It was clearly preparing for an attack!

Seeing how effective Nana’s psychic power attacks were, Ling Mo quickly summoned two giant psychic tentacles.

One of the tentacles shot out first, successfully catching the barrel mutation python’s attention.

Being a beast by nature, and further evolved, it was highly sensitive.

Although it couldn’t see or smell the tentacle, it reacted appropriately to the presence of a terrifying force.

The snake immediately shrank down, its mouth opening wide as if about to spray venom.

“It does have a trump card!”

Ling Mo was alarmed, but at that moment, the other tentacle shot out, aiming straight for the snake’s mouth!

The snake was busy dodging the first tentacle and preparing to spray venom, leaving it unable to react in time.

The moment the tentacle entered its mouth, the snake tried to close its jaws, but the other tentacle had already hooked onto its upper jaw, pulling it back forcefully.
