Chapter 1237: The Death of the Mantis
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
What was especially horrifying was… when this Zombie’s eyes began to change, an exceptionally terrifying aura emanated from her body! It was as if he had suddenly been thrown into an ice cellar dozens of degrees below zero, with a cold wind constantly sweeping in!Cold! Bone-chillingly cold!
The mantis shivered… but then, in a near-mad shock, he snapped back to his senses.
He had dug up something big!
He had to get the word out! People needed to know!
If he could spread this news thoroughly, they wouldn’t even need to kill Ling Mo anymore!
As long as this matter was made public, he would never be able to return to Miracle Base!
And as for the other Survivor Camps, they would surely see this person as a monstrous threat!
“He’s dead… he’s dead for sure…”
The blood in the mantis’s heart began to boil uncontrollably, but just then, Ye Lian’s foot once again lightly stepped on his wrist.
“Ah!”
With a heart-wrenching scream, the mantis’s eyes suddenly became bloodshot.
He could even feel his whole body being torn apart bit by bit… and only now did he suddenly come to his senses…
“No… no!”
The mantis was about to open his mouth desperately, but he watched helplessly as Ling Mo crouched down.
An invisible snake seemed to slither into his clothes, and then, something slid out from his inner pocket…
Ling Mo took the Communicator from the mantis’s horrified gaze, then gave a slight smile to the device.
“No! As long as I can say it!”
“Ah!”
But he still couldn’t stop screaming.
This inhuman pain made it impossible for him to speak!
And in this utter helpless agony, he watched as Ling Mo tossed the Communicator into the air.
“Pa!”
The Communicator was instantly smashed to pieces.
Ling Mo, still crouching, turned his gaze to the mantis and asked amiably, “Now can we talk?”
…
“The mantis is dead.” High up on the Rooftop, the owner of those eyes put down the Communicator in his hand.
The screams inside echoed for a while before abruptly stopping. That was enough for those present to vividly imagine the scene.
“Impressive…” a voice said.
“A bit faster than we expected,” another chimed in.
But as they discussed so casually, the remaining Team Members lined up all looked a bit pale.
“So what do we do next?” someone asked. But the speaker was also one of the ten main members.
With the mantis’s death, only nine of them remained.
But there weren’t even nine present at the moment.
“Wait…” said the Alpha, “Since their combat strength is greater than we estimated, then… let’s wait for the right moment. Finish it in one go.”
…
“Found them…”
Atop a tall utility pole outside the Hotel, an invisible figure was also listening to the screams.
It suddenly turned its head, looking in a certain direction…
The range… had narrowed…
At this moment, the darkness had contracted to an even tighter space.
And that direction was the very center of the center…
…
“Ah…”
The mantis howled in agony for a while longer before finally stopping, drenched in cold sweat.
But by now, he had completely lost any will to fight… The way he looked at Ling Mo was as if he were looking at a Monster.
As for Ye Lian… he didn’t even have the courage to glance at her again.
That was no ordinary Zombie!
It was one that could tear him to pieces in an instant! Who knew what else was hidden behind that pretty face…
Just seeing her blank expression as she crushed his hand bone, he knew she could do anything with that same look!
Especially the precision of her strength… that feeling of being crushed bit by bit, he never wanted to experience again.
If it were just facing Ling Mo, maybe he could still force himself to be tough. After all, he had mentally prepared for everything when he took on this mission.
But a Zombie? Zombies weren’t part of the calculation!
“No… don’t eat me… don’t eat me!” The mantis’s face was deathly pale, his lips trembling, and he almost subconsciously muttered in a low voice.
“Who’s going to eat you!” Ling Mo quickly pulled Ye Lian behind him…
Such a terrifying ingredient should stay far away…
The mantis shivered reflexively; now, any move Ling Mo made would startle him.
“You should know, all your companions think you’re already dead. So, there won’t be any rescue.” Ling Mo observed the mantis’s expression and spoke.
This guy was scared out of his wits, but not to the point of a complete mental breakdown. That was about what Ling Mo had calculated…
If he could plot to kill him, he wouldn’t be driven insane by the sudden appearance of Zombies.
“I know…” the mantis replied dully.
“These little tricks of yours…” Ling Mo glanced at the shattered Communicator and said, “Then you know what I’m going to ask, right?”
“I know.” The mantis nodded again.
Ling Mo stared at him and said, “If you answer honestly… I’ll let you die quickly. Would you rather endure long, inhuman torture for the Camp before dying, or go painlessly? It’s your choice.”
The mantis shivered again… He suddenly realized that Ling Mo was the one he should fear most among these two humanoid Creatures…
This Zombie hadn’t attacked him…
The Zombie listened to him…
He moved among crowds with a Zombie in tow…
The mantis thought he was just pretending. But this human… he was truly unpredictable!
He and the Camp had plotted so much, yet in the end, it felt like every step was blocked by him…
They hadn’t valued this man enough!
The others… could they really succeed…
He lost so helplessly… For the answer to this question, he truly began to doubt.
If Ling Mo could predict him, could he also predict the others?
“You… go ahead and ask.” The mantis was silent for a long while before answering, looking utterly hopeless.
“Mm. First question… who are you?” Ling Mo asked.
“My real name is Tang Xiong… my nickname is mantis. Since the Apocalypse, I’ve just been called mantis… As you can see, looking like this, even if I run into acquaintances, I don’t want them to recognize me… But to be honest, actually… there’s someone I know by my side, she just never knew who I was. I originally planned that after this, I’d never use my Superpower again, then reveal myself to her, take her somewhere to live well, and try to live as normal a life as possible.” Facing death, the mantis became much more talkative.
But although Ling Mo listened in silence, he felt no sympathy. All these dreams of a good life were built on his death. And that’s how killing goes-there are winners and losers…
As for whether the other party hated him, Ling Mo didn’t care.
“My Superpower… is mutation system… I can transplant parts of other Creatures’ bodies onto myself, and keep them usable for a period of time… like nails, Hair, even skin… If I’m not afraid of Infection, I can even use Zombie hands and feet…”
“I know, you want to ask which Camp I’m from, right? Hehehe… You should know, there are too many people who want to kill you. Even with information transmission being so inconvenient, your name is known by everyone…” The mantis kept rambling, a smile on his face, but his body was trembling all the while…
A few minutes later…
After Ling Mo had asked more than a dozen questions, Ye Lian finished off the mantis from behind.
He died quickly…
Ling Mo stood up and asked in his mind, “Are you all okay?”
“We’re fine, a corpse was leading me around, but I took it out.”
“Ah! Another corpse just fell in front of me!”
“Hey, hey, I found the music! Turns out a few corpses were running around with a Mobile Phone!”
These were all voices from Black Silk…
As for Li Yalin and Xia Na… Ling Mo switched perspectives to check on them.
There was basically a corpse lying in front of each of them, and like Ling Mo, they had been lured into a closed room and trapped in darkness.
This was pretty much the same as the “safe” signal Ling Mo had received… The only unsafe thing was those corpses themselves…
“Master! Did you get any useful Intelligence?” After Black Silk finished chattering, she finally remembered to ask about Ling Mo’s situation.
“Nothing useful…” Ling Mo glanced at the corpse and said, “Aside from his own part, most of it was lies.”
