Chapter 491 – Congratulations, You Made the Hit List

Li Hao’s return quickly shook the entire Air Force Corps.

There were people spreading the news, whispering, holding emergency meetings, and even some who wanted to see what Li Hao had turned into…

However, the “Li Hao” locked in the room had nothing to do with all this commotion.

After turning over the bottom of the bed, Ling Mo found that he could only wait.

The captain didn’t leave any diary or anything. Even if he didn’t record personal life or accounts, he could at least note the high-level structure of the Air Force Corps…

Or write down some stories that must be told among the higher-ups, or even some thoughts on missions…

“A leader who doesn’t keep a diary isn’t a good leader…”

Ling Mo sighed and lay back down on the hard bed.

There’s no rushing it. As long as he stays in the Air Force Corps, there will be plenty of opportunities.

A few hours later, it was completely dark outside.

The expected interrogation didn’t come. Instead, the guard outside brought in a meal, which Ling Mo forced down.

The food was pretty average, but credit where it’s due, in a survivor’s camp, it was hot food.

This made Ling Mo, who often ate dry rations, feel a bit unbalanced, especially since his main body was gnawing on dry rations at that moment.

But after eating, Ling Mo realized what rice and other “nutrient-less” food meant for zombies…

“It’s like chewing on grass roots…”

Ling Mo rubbed his stomach and suddenly felt a strange bump.

But then, he quickly pulled his hand away in disgust.

This was something Nana had prepared for him, but it couldn’t be used until a critical moment.

“In the future, I’ll make sure you all eat meat, and plenty of it.”

Ling Mo’s main body looked up at the girls, including Ye Lian, who were sharing the virus gel, and suddenly said.

These female zombies looked at each other and then cheered. They all pounced on him.

“No, no! I didn’t mean myself! Ah! Don’t bite, not there! Senior Sister, don’t you want your child?”

“Oh! He’s trying to turn Senior Sister! Bite him!”

“Tap, tap, tap…”

At that moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

“Open it!”

As the door opened, a bald bighead and the middle-aged man walked into the room together.

Ling Mo immediately shifted his attention back to the zombie puppet, and with his eyes wide open like a dead fish, he put on a lifelike appearance.

For a zombie in a stationary state, this was just natural acting.

“Captain Li.”

Bighead pulled a chair over, sat by the bed, and with a face full of fleshy folds, looked quite sinister: “The Regimental Commander will see you tomorrow.”

Then why are you here today? And… who are you anyway?

Ling Mo had already given up on Li Hao’s memory abilities. After all this time, someone finally showed up, and Li Hao didn’t even recognize him!

“I’m here to ask you first. Have you guys been completely wiped out?”

Bighead had just finished asking when the middle-aged man behind him sneered mockingly.

But his attitude didn’t affect Ling Mo in the slightest. After all, he was mocking Li Hao, not him…

So Ling Mo calmly nodded his head.

“Ha! Thick-skinned, aren’t you? Don’t you feel the slightest bit ashamed?”

The middle-aged man asked with a cold smile.

Ashamed? Why should I be ashamed?

I wiped out everyone you sent, I’m not even done celebrating yet!

Ling Mo rolled his eyes with amusement, not saying a word.

“Hehe… It seems the enemy you encountered was far stronger than we anticipated,” Bighead said, pausing for a moment before laughing.

Exactly… Ling Mo thought smugly.

But on the surface, he quickly nodded.

He knew his behavior might not match Li Hao’s usual boastful demeanor… but so what?

After experiencing such a devastating defeat, isn’t a little despondency allowed?

So Ling Mo was essentially bluffing. He knew the other party would come up with their own reasons to convince themselves.

Sure enough, Bighead wiped his sweat awkwardly and said, “Don’t be too desperate…”

“How strong could they be? Wasn’t it just your failed plans and flawed strategies?!”

The middle-aged man glared at Ling Mo and asked, “So, tell us, how strong are they? That Ling Mo, isn’t he just a mental ability superhuman? Can he really stop bullets?”

“Yes…”

After remaining silent until now, Ling Mo finally spoke slowly, “He is indeed just a mental ability superhuman, but he can stop bullets with his bare hands, and even use a brick to bring down a plane. He is skilled in stealth and ambush, and loves to knock people out from behind. My teammates and I were all taken down by his exceptional ambush skills. Even I barely escaped after being severely injured…”

Bighead started sweating more and more as he listened, while the middle-aged man looked increasingly confused.

“Are you sure he’s really a mental ability superhuman? From what you’re saying, I can’t even tell what his ability is! What about that Yin Jie among you? I heard he’s good at gathering intelligence. He was part of the first group to ambush, and although he failed, didn’t he provide any detailed information?”

When Bighead asked this, Ling Mo couldn’t help but feel amused.

Holding back his laughter, he thought, judging by their reactions, Li Hao only informed the second group about my ability to command mutation beasts and zombies.

After Li Hao’s group disappeared, the high-ranking members of the Air Force Corps must have questioned the other members of the 9th Squad.

But they only learned a little and didn’t know what information Li Hao and his group actually had.

“This will make things much easier…”

Ling Mo slowly shook his head and said weakly, “It’s precisely because we couldn’t figure out his abilities that we…”

“Stop making excuses!”

The middle-aged man interrupted him with a look of disdain and let out a heavy grunt, “Save those words for the Regimental Commander! Getting beaten by an ordinary person using bricks and sneak attacks… it’s… it’s a disgrace to our Air Force Corps!”

Sorry for embarrassing you all…

At this moment, Bighead turned to the middle-aged man and said, “Since this mental ability superhuman is so formidable, I think you should hold off on taking over for now. We should have another meeting to discuss this. It seems that just sending one squad might not be enough; we may need to send more people.”

“Afraid of what?! If necessary, I’ll send bombers to blow him up!”

The middle-aged man glared and growled.

Bombers…

Ling Mo’s scalp tingled instantly! Indeed, the Air Force Corps dominating this area, even surpassing the Falcon group, wasn’t without reason.

Besides controlling the air routes, their strength wasn’t weak either.

If they had used such aerial power in their first ambush, he would have been skinned alive even if he didn’t die…

One bomber might be manageable, but if several were deployed at once…

Blocking a single bullet was Ling Mo’s limit, but blocking artillery? He didn’t have that confidence.

It was precisely because of this consideration that Ling Mo didn’t foolishly confront the Air Force Corps head-on.

The Air Force Corps had at least a thousand members; attacking them directly would be suicide.

But this way, he was making them dig their own graves…

“Hmph! Let’s discuss it further then!” The middle-aged man, after making threats, took a step back.

It seemed that deploying bombers wasn’t something they did casually…

Ling Mo sneered to himself. This round of nonsense had successfully stalled them at the Air Force Corps.

As long as he could buy some time, it would be enough…

“That Ling Mo, I’ll personally capture him, strip him naked, and hang him on barbed wire!”

The middle-aged man continued, “As for those women, I’ll break their legs and make Ling Mo watch as they crawl to the fields over there, only to be devoured by zombies! As for him… he can slowly dry out on the barbed wire!”

After speaking, he gave Ling Mo a provoking look, as if saying: How about that? Am I stronger than you? Even my imagined punishments are more detailed and brutal than yours!

But to his frustration, Ling Mo just looked at him silently.

In reality, behind Li Hao’s face was Ling Mo’s own, wearing a mocking smile…

This guy had just moved to the top of his must-kill list!
