Chapter 511 – Second Stage

As Ling Mo turned around, a spiritual tentacle suddenly pierced through the middle of Liu Bao Dong’s eyebrows.
A bloody hole quietly appeared, freezing his expressions.
Was it regret or resentment? Ling Mo didn’t bother to look back and check.
Hearing the corpse hit the ground, Ling Mo looked towards the direction of the Air Force Regiment and suddenly let out a deep sigh.
…
Early afternoon, Yu Wen Xuan and his group finally arrived near the Air Force Regiment base.
From their tired looks and bloodshot eyes, one could tell that they rushed over here without any delay.
Although the path they took to pass through the fields was shorter and had fewer zombies compared to the main road, they couldn’t use any means of transportation.
If it weren’t for the fact that this team was made up of psychics and trained soldiers, they wouldn’t have been able to arrive so quickly.
The Air Force Regiment member that led the way was so tired now, but he didn’t dare mention anything about resting…
Seeing Lucy’s gloomy face, he was frightened.
Everything would be fine if nothing happened to Ling Mo, but if something really did happen…
“Liu Bao Dong, you’re really going to get me killed here…” The Air Force regiment member wailed in his heart.
Along the way, he heard the F Group members talk about the three people who had rushed over to hunt down Ling Mo without permission. They sounded pretty strong.
Especially the spiritual-type psychic. That psychic was basically the nemesis of all spiritual psychics. It didn’t matter how strong they were. As long as they fell into his trap, they wouldn’t be able to use their powers.
Based on the conversations, the F group members didn’t seem very optimistic about Ling Mo and his party…
Only Jian Qi[1] kept asking Lucy about him curiously. It was as if he was very interested in Ling Mo.
However, it could be seen from the expressions of most of the people here, Ling Mo and his group… were in an unfavorable situation!
“Hey, you…”
Yu Wen Xuan, who was moving at the front of the line, suddenly turned his head and waved at him.
“You don’t even plan on asking what my name is? You just decided to call me ‘Hey, you’?!”
Even though this member of the Air Force Regiment was secretly muttering words of dissatisfaction, he still dragged his tired legs and ran to Yu Wen Xuan…
The Air Force member squeezed out a flattering smile and asked, “Captain Yu, what’s wrong now?”
“The word “now”… Hmm, you seem to be very dissatisfied with me.”
Yu Wen Xuan grabbed a handful of his hair and said suddenly.
“If you want to say something, just say it already! Don’t beat around the bush!”
The Air Force Regiment member was annoyed deep down, but his smile remained unchanged, “I don’t dare to be dissatisfied.”
“Captain, just get to the point.” Zhang Yu, who was standing at the side, gave Yu Wen Xuan a slanted look and said.
“Che…”
“What’s that ‘che’ for?! There’s a time and place for everything, okay? This isn’t the time to play around with prisoners!”
Zhang Yu was furious. If it wasn’t for the fact that he knew he couldn’t beat Wen Xuan, he would have already gone up and beat him…
“Does that mean he can play with me at other times? You’re not much of a good person either…”
The expression on the Air Force Regiment member’s face had gotten stiff.
Suddenly, he felt as if a dark shadow loomed over him. As soon as he looked up, all of the dissatisfaction inside him was immediately frightened away.
Compared to the crazy Yu Wen Xuan, he was more scared of the big man that tied him up…
Tom was his name. Although it sounded ordinary, he was the complete opposite of that. His scalp couldn’t help but tingle when he thought about how easy it was for him to tie him up and throw him around like a chicken.
“Although our speed is already extremely fast, the other party set out before us, maybe…” Tom said worriedly without looking at him.
“Ahahaha, Tom, haven’t you also worked with my brother-in-law? Relax, don’t worry about him…” After revealing a smile, Wen Xuan turned his head and said to the Air Force Regiment member, “By the way, I wanted to ask something. If I wanted to keep a team of people on standby, where would be the best location? Ah,and also.”
As he said this, his face wore a serious expression under the messy hair, “It needs to be somewhere where they can destroy the Air Force regiment at any time.”
“…”
…..
“They’re here.”
Ling Mo said as he retracted his spiritual tentacles.
During the night, he had digested a third of the spiritual power he had devoured and recovered all of his consumed spiritual power. His spiritual ball of light also seemed to have changed and was now slowly compressing.
This change was unexpected to Ling Mo. It seems that after growing to a certain level, his spiritual power would ‘evolve’ to another stage.
However, he didn’t know what would happen after he ‘evolved’. He would probably have to wait until he fully digested everything to find out…
“Will there be a problem?” Shana asked.
“That lunatic should know how to control himself.” Ling Mo said as he smiled slightly. He then suddenly reached out and grabbed Ya Lin, who was just about to walk away, “Senior Sister, you stay too.”
“Wuu…”
“After all, he is your cousin… Hey! Don’t bite me! Why do you hate him so much…?”
At this moment, a group of people had already appeared on the curve at the end of the highway.
When Ling Mo and his group walked out of the weeds, the group of people was stunned.
“Ah! They’re all right!”
Ling Mo wasn’t sure who shouted those words, but Wen Xuan and a couple of people immediately sped up and ran over.
Lucy’s eyes were filled with excitement, but before she could even run to Ling Mo, two figures ran past her.
“Ahahaha, Brother-in-law, did you miss me?”
Wen Xuan opened his arms and ran to hug Ling Mo, but just as he was about to reach him, Ling Mo quickly stepped aside.
But what Ling Mo didn’t expect was that he still got hugged. One second he was showing a sneer that said he was prepared, and the next second he was embraced by a big man.
Tom patted Ling Mo’s back hard and laughed loudly, “Ling Mo, it’s been a real long time! It’s really not that easy to see anyone alive again in this world! But I didn’t expect that you were actually the Deputy Chief of Staff’s brother-in-law. I just knew you and our Falcons would become family sooner or later, hahaha…”
“Ahem..”
After finally pushing Tom away, Ling Mo glared at him for a moment before smiling, “Why did you come here too?”
As Tom said, it’s a great feeling to meet a friend again in this world…
“I was temporarily transferred to the special operations team of the Deputy Chief of Staff!” Tom lowered his voice and said, “Originally, I didn’t want to come with this Newbie Killer, but I didn’t expect for this task to be related to you! Haha!”
“Hey, I’m right here…” After Wen Xuan glared at Tom, he coughed and turned his gaze to Ya Lin.
The two looked at each other but didn’t speak.
A complex emotion flashed through Wen Xuan’s eyes. He already had a vague idea of what Ya Lin and the other girls were…
If she had been someone else, he would have killed them a long time ago. But the person standing in front of him now was his only remaining relative.
“If… she really is a zombie, can I still kill her?”
Wen Xuan suddenly thought of the girl who resolutely ran to the group of zombies and suddenly frowned slightly.
For some reason, he suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.
Although it has been a long time, what if… what if she didn’t die?
If she had turned into a zombie, would she have regained her intelligence by now? Would she be able to remember who she was?
…
Being stared at Wen Xuan’s extremely complicated eyes, Ya Lin once again felt uncomfortable.
She slowly stepped back two steps and hid behind Ye Lian.
Towards Wen Xuan, she remembered him and knew that they were related by blood.
She even recovered some memories she had of him.
But because of this, every time Ya Lin saw him, she would try to run away or find a place to hide.
This feeling was something new and unfamiliar to her, and she didn’t know how to deal with them.
But there was one thing she knew. Although this person was incomparable to Ling Mo and different from Ye Lian and the others, he was still a relatively unique existence to her.
He was neither prey nor a person she could have close contact with…
In a very short time, Wen Xuan had thought of many possibilities.
It was just too risky for humans to get along with zombies…
Although Ling Mo had the ability, he probably needed to pay a huge price to restore the girls, who were probably zombies, back to normal.
But on the other hand, he also seems to be playing with fire… Bringing zombies to human contact, this alone was enough to make most of the people present immediately regard him as a deadly enemy.
“Why did you have to make me keep such a secret… No wonder this kid always feels confident when he looks at me!”
