Chapter 490 – A Nightmare Sneaks In
Editor: Zephyr04 Translator: Jhung
Bang—
Xing Yao turned to look at Li Hao, who was thrown onto the bed and closed the door.
Just before the middle-aged man left, he was given another task. To guard this guy and make sure he doesn’t run away.
“Can this guy even still run? Without recovering for at least half a month, I doubt he can even walk straight.”
Xing Yao felt a little dissatisfied with this extra task.
Even though his original job was to stand guard… But since the Air Force Regiment as a whole was not the same as before, this kind of small task was naturally no problem.
“But… Will I be affected by his bad luck if I’m guarding this guy?”
Xing Yao leaned against the wall and thought, “Damn, there isn’t even anyone to chat with!”
To be honest, he was still curious, of course not towards Li Hao, but towards the group of people that fought against Li Hao.
They had openly confronted the Air Force Regiment, overturned two groups of teams in succession, and destroyed two helicopters…
These things had nothing to do with people like him, but they still somehow spread to the public.
An ordinary person messed up the Air Force Regiment, amazing!
Thinking of this, Xing Yao glanced inside through the small window on the door and couldn’t help sneering.
“You were so arrogant before, yet weren’t you still taken care of by an ordinary person?”
……
Li Hao, who was lying on the bed at this time, turned his head and glanced at the pill bottles left on the bedside table.
His eyes rolled around the room, and after confirming that there was no surveillance camera, he suddenly sat up.
His movements were quick and agile, and he didn’t seem to be seriously injured at all.
But in fact, his physical injuries were real, but this level was nothing to a zombie.
Coupled with the zombie’s self-healing ability, at most, he looks miserable on the outside, but most of his internal injuries have all quickly healed.
“Phew!”
Li Hao… or should we call him Ling Mo, he jumped off the bed, quickly approached the door, and glanced out through the window.
The guard was already sitting on a chair at this time. Although he was facing this side, he wasn’t looking at the door.
“I can’t believe I actually got in! And I also didn’t get shot either…”
Ling Mo was a little excited. The feeling of sneaking into an enemy’s base was really different.
At least it was pretty new to Ling Mo. This feeling was completely different from the last time he snuck into the Falcon Camp.
“Does this make me 008? The new generation of James Bond…”
But his successful infiltration was nothing more than the beginning.
Ling Mo calmed down his feelings, then reached out and twisted the doorknob.
“Ka-ka…”
He tried to twist it, but quickly let go of the doorknob in disappointment.
Sure enough, the other party had locked him up.
However, zombies can easily break locks like these by using a bit of strength.
They had only locked him up and sent a guard to watch him. It seems that being beaten by Shana was indeed the right decision.
It was always easier to confuse them with a wounded person than a healthy one.
On the other hand, Li Hao was the captain of the ninth team after all. Although he made a big mistake, he hasn’t been disposed of yet.
Besides, didn’t he come back by himself?
He could have just left and found a group of survivors to be their boss, but in the end, he still chose to come back.
That alone was enough to let others relax their vigilance against him.
“Look, Li Hao is aware of his own mistake, why bother guarding him so closely?”
“I can take my time, I’m not in a hurry…”
Ling Mo turned his gaze to the room again and looked around.
This room wasn’t a prison cell. From the looks of it, it should be Li Hao’s personal room, but it seems to have been searched.
This room might have hung a few guns in the past, but now it was empty.
Apart from some daily necessities, his colleagues only left him a few bottles of medicine, and they didn’t even look for a doctor.
“It’s better that they didn’t. Otherwise, if they noticed something, that would be bad.”
Ling Mo was secretly pleased, this kind of treatment was enough to irritate Li Hao himself, but he was actually satisfied.
One side of this room was facing the windows of the airport. Ling Mo leaned to the window, opened the corner of the curtain, and looked out, suddenly revealing a hint of surprise.
He cast his gaze on the distant wilderness, and then suddenly waved his hand.
At this moment, in the wilderness, a small figure suddenly jumped up, “OMG! That idiot!”
“Shh!”
Ling Mo’s main body immediately covered Yu Shi Ran’s mouth. Just as she wanted to resist, Hei Si betrayed her…
The silver wires from Hei Si immediately entangled them, wrapping her tightly, causing both of them to fall into the grass at the same time.
“Wu! Wu!”
“Hei Si, your body is already like this, and you still want to jump on me? Fuck! Fuck! Xiao Bai! Don’t you dare… AH!”
…
This sudden change caused the corpse puppet Ling Mo to pause, and it took two seconds before he could continue to act.
The window was facing the location where the main body was lurking, which is good news. It made it a little more convenient for the operation.
Although the distance was a little far, it was still useful.
The inner part of this room had a storage area, but unfortunately, there was nothing except clothes.
“Forget it. Being a zombie is already the greatest weapon.”
Ling Mo raised his eyebrows indifferently, knocked off the lock on a drawer, and opened it in one go.
“Hmm?”
He reached in, pulled out a bunch of keys, and curiously looked at them.
Pasted onto each security door key was white tape, and written on them were numbers, like one and six, with a ballpoint pen.
These numbers were obviously room numbers.
But what these rooms were for, Ling Mo still doesn’t know yet.
It was one thing to absorb memories, but after all, these memories weren’t something that you already had in your mind. Even if you encounter something familiar, you can’t remember it all at once.
For example, the middle-aged man from before… Ling Mo didn’t speak to him for a reason. On the one hand, it was to hide his identity, while on the other, it was because he didn’t even remember who that guy was!
“This guy really should pay little attention to interpersonal relationships! It’s fine if you can’t remember everything, but that middle-aged uncle made it clear that you are his mortal enemy! Yet you don’t even remember the name of the enemy, it’s really….”
Ling Mo muttered a few words in his heart and put the keys next to him.
They searched his body when he entered the room and had also changed his clothes. If he were to hide something now, they probably wouldn’t be able to find it.
From the words of the middle-aged uncle, Ling Mo confirmed one of his theories.
Li Hao was likely to face repeated interrogations as long as he wasn’t shot immediately after escaping and returning in such a sorry state.
They will probably want to know all the details on Ling Mo and his party and fully explain what had happened… They might also ask him where Ling Mo is now.
He came back looking like he was in the process of being hunted. Perhaps there was a chance that Ling Mo had attacked him multiple times on the way back.
“It doesn’t matter what they ask me. I only want to find out whoever wants to kill me.”
Ling Mo gently squeezed his fist, and the veins on the back of his hand, which looked like an ordinary person’s, immediately bulged.
And those blood vessels that were originally black and blue slowly turned blood-red.
He raised his head and looked at a mirror hung behind a few clothes.
Inside the mirror was a pale and scarred face, but what made people’s hearts race were those eyes that had suddenly become blood-red.
“For those that want to kill me, I’ll kill you before your thoughts even get a chance to come true.”
If these people were just a group of weak people, Ling Mo might have just let this go.
But these people have power, strength, weapons, and relationships.
They had the strength to kill Ling Mo from the beginning, but they didn’t realize that they needed a stronger knife to kill him.
But now, they should be aware of it.
“Unfortunately, it’s too late for you guys.”
Ling Mo clenched his fists abruptly and smashed his fist into the mirror.
The glass shattered silently, but there were no injuries on the back of his hand.
It wasn’t hard for Ling Mo to forcibly make an ordinary zombie evolve into a mutant zombie in a short time when it had permanently turned into a complete idiot [1], with no way of recovering its intelligence.
And a mutant-level zombie that was completely controlled by a human was a nightmare for such a large gathering place for survivors…
[1] – Ling Mo basically wiped out Li Hao’s soul when he absorbed his memories, so all that is left is just the body.
