Chapter 64 – Fierce Battle
They could sense that Ling Mo wasn’t afraid of them at all; he simply didn’t care about what they were doing!
This group of men were hardened killers, unfazed by the act of taking lives. Facing Ling Mo now, despite the tingling sensation in their scalps, this pressure only fueled their ferocity.
The scene of Ling Mo throwing a knife and hitting a buttock was terrifying, but after all, he was just one person with one knife!
Yet, right behind Ling Mo appeared two delicate figures.
Though their faces were pale and their expressions indifferent, almost devoid of emotion, their exquisite features and the tall figures that the raincoats couldn’t conceal left these men momentarily stunned.
If Xia Na’s face still had a touch of youthful immaturity, with features yet to fully develop, then Ye Lian’s appearance was absolutely that of a top-tier beauty.
Especially those almost entirely black eyes, coupled with the unique aura of a Mutation Zombie, made her seem extraordinarily mysterious and extremely alluring!
In the apocalypse, it was rare to see women as outstanding as these two. Compared to them, the woman they had just ravaged could at best be considered ordinary.
The men’s eyes were glued to them, while the Bald Man immediately frowned.
To be able to survive with such beautiful women, this young man must be quite capable…
Moreover, his earlier display of skill, though a sneak attack, showed incredible strength and precision that wasn’t something an ordinary person could achieve.
But soon, the Bald Man revealed a sinister smile and deliberately shouted, “This guy killed our men and now he’s brought us two top-notch women! Kill him! Take those two for ourselves!”
His incitement quickly took effect. These people had become reckless since the apocalypse, having committed countless acts of murder and plunder. Ling Mo seemed to have some skills, but if they killed him, they could enjoy those two exquisite beauties!
Of course, they weren’t so foolish as to ignore their own lives for the sake of women. They knew from Ling Mo’s expression that he meant business; there was no way they could avoid a fight today.
Given the situation, it was better to strike first! No matter how strong he was, he couldn’t fend off all of them alone!
As for Ye Lian and Xia Na, they had already been dismissed as ordinary girls without any combat skills.
Under the Bald Man’s signal, two of the men exchanged glances and suddenly raised their weapons, moving to flank Ling Mo from both sides.
Xia Na grasped the handle of her long knife, ready to draw it, but Ling Mo stopped her. Killing these scum wasn’t worth dirtying Xia Na and Ye Lian’s hands.
He took a deep breath, tightened his grip on the short knife, moved his right foot back slowly, and leaned his body forward, adopting a stance ready for a forward charge.
Ling Mo knew exactly what these men were planning. But if they thought he could only launch surprise attacks, they were gravely mistaken! His close combat skills might be lacking compared to an Advanced Zombie, but these men, despite their fierce appearances, were just ordinary people. How could they possibly compare to him?
Just as the two men shouted and lunged, they were shocked to see Ling Mo vanish from his spot!
No, he hadn’t vanished. In the instant they approached, Ling Mo had already charged forward!
His speed was incredible. The first man only saw a blur before feeling a cold sensation in his chest, followed by a sharp, ripping pain.
As he realized what had happened, a stream of blood gushed from his chest, and Ling Mo, who had just withdrawn his short knife, mercilessly kicked him away.
Ling Mo’s attack was so swift that it left the other man in a state of shock. Just as he was about to halt his movement, Ling Mo turned and lunged at him.
In a life-or-death moment, the man found a surge of fierce determination, thrusting his fruit knife towards Ling Mo.
At this moment, the Bald Man also made his move, swinging his axe and, despite his bulky frame, leaping high into the air to bring it down from above.
Caught in a pincer attack, even if Ling Mo dodged the fruit knife, he would inevitably be struck by the Bald Man’s axe. Hence, before the axe even descended, the Bald Man’s face, lined with fat, twisted into a vicious smirk.
Seeing the fruit knife coming straight at him, Ling Mo’s eyes narrowed slightly. He twisted his body sharply mid-charge, his back almost brushing against the knife’s edge as he sidestepped. It looked as if he collided sideways with the man, his short knife driving directly into the man’s abdomen.
This movement technique was something Ling Mo had learned from Xia Na’s combat style. Though he was just an ordinary person, with experience fighting in the Apocalypse, his combat skills were no match for a “professional” like Xia Na. Her knife skills were sharp, and her movements were equally agile.
In every battle, Ling Mo absorbed all the experience he could, thoroughly integrating it into his own combat methods.
At the same time, Ling Mo released his Psychic Tentacle. His aim wasn’t to control anyone but to affect the Bald Man behind him!
The Bald Man, who was lunging forward, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his temple. His vision blurred, and his axe veered off course.
Using the momentum from the collision, both Ling Mo and the man he was fighting were pushed back several steps, slamming into the wall.
The Bald Man’s sneak attack missed entirely!
The man who was stabbed let out a scream. The intense pain caused him to drop his fruit knife with a clatter, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Bald Man, whose attack had missed, landed heavily on the ground. He shook his head, a look of horror flashing in his eyes. His face, covered in fat, twitched as he let out a roar and swung his axe at Ling Mo’s back again.
But Ling Mo, having heard the gust of wind behind him, had already drawn his short knife. As he turned, he bent his knee and thrust the short knife upwards into the Bald Man’s belly, making it look as though the Bald Man had impaled himself.
Despite his bulky appearance, the Bald Man was skilled enough to be the leader of his group. Although his move was already committed, upon seeing Ling Mo’s agile response, the veins on his forehead bulged. With a loud shout, he twisted his body forcefully. Even so, a deep cut was slashed across his fat waist, instantly reddening one side of his body.
The Bald Man’s face twisted in agony, but he wasn’t a Zombie. Severely injured, he couldn’t immediately counterattack. Instead, he stumbled back several steps.
In the blink of an eye, the only person left unscathed was the other man with the black face.
“You bastard!” the Bald Man cursed but didn’t attack Ling Mo again. Instead, he threw his axe violently, aiming at Ye Lian and Xia Na, who were standing at the door!
