My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 1170: Terrifying Assist

“Finished talking? What did they say? Well, that’s fine… Judging by their expressions, the negotiation must have collapsed… So next, they’re probably going to deal with Ling Mo, right?” The Niepan captain thought excitedly.

“Ling Mo, you really have bad luck… Once Liu Yang makes his move, I’ll look for an opportunity… Hm?” At that moment, the Niepan captain suddenly froze, and his expression changed dramatically.

“What… what’s happening!”

The Niepan captain blinked hard, his expression growing more and more terrified.

“Why can’t I move?! My body… my legs, and my hands, none of them obey me! Move, come on, move!”

Except for his face, which he could still move on his own, his body was completely stiff…

“…That’s right…”

The Niepan captain suddenly looked at Liu Yang’s back, shouting in shock and anger, “It’s you! It must be you who did something to me! The only one who could attack me without me noticing is you! No wonder… no wonder you guys shielded me… You must’ve taken the chance just now to do something to me…”

He shouted so loudly that Ling Mo heard every word clearly.

But after a brief pause, Ling Mo quickly regained his composure.

It seemed this captain, who was completely in the dark, still didn’t realize… From the moment Liu Yang was forced to reveal himself, his value had already disappeared. Whether as a decoy, or to interfere with Ling Mo’s line of sight and drain him, he hadn’t accomplished any of it. In that case, why would the Spider Queen keep him around…

“Don’t worry, you’ll understand soon enough.” Ling Mo’s face showed no trace of sympathy; just moments ago, this guy was filled with murderous intent toward him…

“You’re wrong.” Liu Yang turned back to glance at the Niepan captain, answering expressionlessly, “If I wanted to deal with you, I wouldn’t need to use that kind of opportunity… I only shielded your hearing so you’d obediently stay here. If you weren’t so afraid of dying, I wouldn’t have needed to do that. Like just now, if I hadn’t made you stay behind me, maybe you would’ve already backed out?”

“You! So… you’re the hidden captain? But that’s not right… If you guys didn’t do something to me just now, then when was it? I’m always careful… I wouldn’t let you set me up… And what do you want now! I’m also with Niepan, I want to kill Ling Mo too!” The Niepan captain was still stuck in his misunderstanding…

But just as Ling Mo thought, he was about to realize his true situation…

“Ah!!!” With a sudden, piercing scream, the Niepan captain’s curses stopped instantly. The only part of him that could still move, his face, twisted in pain, his eyes bulging wide as if they might pop out. Bloodshot veins appeared immediately… Just from his facial reaction, it was easy to imagine how intense his suffering was…

“Ah ah ah!” The veins on the Niepan captain’s neck bulged out. But soon, one vein suddenly began to move, extending toward his face, and finally, under his agonized and terrified gaze, crawled up his forehead to the top of his head…

“I’m only doing this to force out all your potential.” Liu Yang simply watched him without any reaction. Even though he was once human, at this point, such a situation no longer stirred any emotion in him.

Ling Mo frowned slightly, but then a faint sense of unease crept in…

This Niepan captain… seems to still retain his self-awareness!

“Ah…!” In just one second after the “vein” burrowed into his scalp, the Niepan captain’s screams slowly faded. At the same time, his body began to move again, at first stiffly twisting his neck, then starting to walk.

But in stark contrast to his body’s movement was the Niepan captain’s expression… He watched himself walk up to Liu Yang, nearly collapsing, while Liu Yang smiled at him.

That single smile made the Niepan captain suddenly understand. Another figure flashed through his mind…

“Wen… Wen Xiaoyu…”

“So, you figured it out? Hm… Human observation really is impressive. Especially for a psychic power superhuman like you. But if you hadn’t gone through this, you wouldn’t have dared to trust your own senses, right?” Liu Yang said.

“You… you, you…”

“Go on, don’t you really want to kill Ling Mo? When it comes to prey you want to kill, of course you have to fight with everything you’ve got. Since you can’t do it yourself, I’ll help you out.” ℟𝙖𝐍òᛒЕs

“No… no!”

Even though the Niepan captain screamed… his body was already uncontrollably climbing the steps…

Tap… tap… tap…

“He’s coming!”

Ling Mo, hiding in the corner, instantly tensed up…

“Wen Xiaoyu? So… there’s another similar Host Body? Whew… I didn’t expect it to get so troublesome now… Not only is the main body not coming out, even the Host Bodies are this cautious… But using human superhumans-especially mental ability types-to fight in its place really is a tricky move…”

All of Ling Mo’s combat power came from psychic power… Once it was heavily depleted, his strength would drop sharply. That meant the chances of capturing him alive would be much higher. And since the Spider Queen didn’t intend to kill him, this was naturally the best strategy.

“It only told me about the Low-Level Host Body just now, but didn’t mention anything about one like this, and for a mental ability superhuman like this, it didn’t even give me a chance to observe… From this, I can deduce it won’t give me a chance to probe slowly, because after those previous battles, it already knows me! What should I do?”

As the footsteps drew closer, Ling Mo’s mood gradually shifted from anxious to calm.

“No matter what… I’ll make the first move!”

Whoosh whoosh!

Several Tentacles shot out instantly, and as soon as the Niepan captain sensed the energy approaching, his hands suddenly swung out.

Clang clang clang…

In the Niepan captain’s terrified gaze… several bloody spots burst out on his Arm…

“Ah ah… huh? Not broken? It actually… didn’t pierce through?” The Niepan captain was stunned.

Ling Mo was equally shocked…

“In such a short time, his body’s defensive capability actually reached this level!”
