My Girlfriend is a Zombie-Chapter 673: Specializing in the Soles
Chapter 673: Specializing in the Soles
Speaking was merely to distract the opponent.
Hidden behind it was Ling Mo’s already prepared dark hand.
While the Purple Eyes Zombie was racking its brain for the next sentence, a dozen Psychic Tentacles suddenly emerged from the ground.
These psychic energies were silent and invisible, effortlessly “penetrating” the concrete floor, encompassing a ten-meter radius around the Purple Eyes Zombie.
At this moment, the Purple Eyes Zombie was still on the move, and almost simultaneously with the appearance of the tentacles, Ling Mo’s eye twitched involuntarily. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Got it!
Almost immediately, Ling Mo’s mental command was issued.
The tentacles that had been touched by the Purple Eyes Zombie instantly materialized, wrapping around the zombie’s lower legs and climbing upwards, like vines firmly entangling their prey.
Caught off guard, the Purple Eyes Zombie reacted quickly.
As soon as it was ensnared, the zombie immediately twisted its body forcefully.
A tremendous force immediately traveled from the other end of the tentacles, but Ling Mo was prepared for this.
Enduring the throbbing pain in his head, Ling Mo immediately increased the output of his mental energy.
However, the zombie’s strength was far beyond Ling Mo’s imagination.
The speed at which he could output mental energy couldn’t keep up with the destructive force caused by the zombie’s struggles.
Watching the Psychic Tentacles begin to disintegrate inch by inch, Ling Mo’s brows furrowed tightly.
“Ignorant human.”
The Purple Eyes Zombie’s tone carried the stiffness and coldness characteristic of zombies, grating to the ears.
Although the zombie couldn’t see Ling Mo’s Psychic Tentacles, it could sense an energy and aura similar to that human’s, attempting to confine it.
But this force was clearly not enough to make the Purple Eyes Zombie feel threatened or pressured.
“Interesting, but too weak.” The zombie, now becoming quite talkative, kept repeating “interesting” over and over.
It was evident that this zombie had limited opportunities to communicate with humans or its kind. Although it spoke much more smoothly than an average Senior Zombie, it still had a limited vocabulary for flexible use.
However, Ling Mo didn’t have the luxury to mock the opponent further; his vision was almost completely blurred.
This situation was a sign of psychic power depletion.
“Don’t get cocky too soon…”
Ling Mo gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, his eyes suddenly sharpening.
At the exact moment when the Psychic Tentacle was about to completely dissipate, more tentacles shot out from beneath the Purple Eyes Zombie’s feet!
This time, the Purple Eyes Zombie was caught entirely off guard. How could Ling Mo, who seemed to be at his limit, still have the energy for a sneak attack?!
Moreover, the timing was impeccable!
The tentacle that was about to dissipate still managed to constrain the Purple Eyes Zombie for a split second.
As the dozen or so Psychic Tentacles emerged from the ground, it appeared as if they all struck simultaneously, but in reality, there was a subtle difference in timing.
These materialized tentacles all hit the same spot precisely, and that spot was the sole of the Purple Eyes Zombie’s foot!
Ling Mo hadn’t yet seen just how strong the skin defenses of a dominant level zombie could be, but he had some mental preparation.
The sole of the foot was definitely a weak point!
But finding the weak point was useless unless you could hit it.
To strike this Purple Eyes Zombie, the opportunity was incredibly elusive.
If Ling Mo had attacked impatiently right after immobilizing it, the zombie would have likely retaliated more violently. In that scenario, not only would the attack fail and the immobilization be broken, but Ling Mo’s Psychic Light Cluster could also suffer damage.
But now, it was different. No matter how sharp the zombie’s senses were, it couldn’t possibly notice an anomaly under its sole while being distracted in various ways!
By the time it realized, it would be too late.
The distance between the ground and the sole was almost zero!
When the first tentacle penetrated the shoe and struck the sole of the Purple Eyes Zombie’s foot, Ling Mo immediately sensed a strong defensive capability.
It was completely impenetrable!
Not only did it fail to pierce through, but Ling Mo also felt a recoil force.
The impact on his Psychic Light Cluster caused another bout of dizziness and blurred vision.
However, the failure of the first strike didn’t mean Ling Mo’s subsequent actions would be hindered.
If one strike doesn’t work, how about ten?!
And with each hit, Ling Mo exerted more psychic power than before!
Within a mere second, Ling Mo’s Psychic Tentacles struck the relatively soft sole of the Purple Eyes Zombie’s foot with increasing force.
The Purple Eyes Zombie was completely unprepared for this. By the time it started to struggle, Ling Mo’s attacks had already reached the fifteenth hit.
“You… you… you despicable human!”
The Purple Eyes Zombie tried to curse but got stuck mid-sentence.
Though its words lacked intimidation, its strength certainly didn’t.
As soon as it twisted its body, Ling Mo felt as if someone had yanked out his nerves and was pulling them out of his head. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
His eyes widened almost instantly, and the previously suppressed anomalies seemed to all return at once, magnified several times over.
The “little gift” left by the Spider Queen also began to act up, causing all sorts of chaotic visions to appear before Ling Mo’s eyes. He even “saw” a tiny spider with the upper body and head of the Spider Queen crawling up his eyelashes.
“Ah…”
Both Ling Mo and the Purple Eyes Zombie let out a muffled groan simultaneously.
One stood there clutching its foot, while the other shook his head vigorously.
Ling Mo blinked forcefully twice, and the scene before him finally became a bit clearer.
The Purple Eyes Zombie was currently inspecting its sole, muttering, “To think I got hurt by a human… to think…”
Ling Mo squinted, still feeling a bit dizzy.
He sensed behind him that Ye Lian was moving the cocoon containing Yu Shiran and Black Silk onto Xiao Bai.
At this moment, Xiao Bai’s massive size was proving advantageous. Not only was it carrying a heap of backpacks, but it also shouldered all the female zombies except for Ye Lian…
“More?”
As soon as the Purple Eyes Zombie saw the cocoon, it put its foot down immediately.
The moment its foot touched the ground, a trace of blood seeped out.
“Sniff~”
Ye Lian immediately twitched her nose.
Xia Na and Li Yalin, who were lying on Xiao Bai, simultaneously lifted their heads and sniffed hard, causing the cocoon to wobble slightly.
In an instant, the atmosphere turned eerie. The Purple Eyes Zombie stared wide-eyed at this bizarre group of zombies, humans, and a Mutation Beast, particularly intrigued by the three distinct female zombies.
Meanwhile, those female zombies were drawn to the high-virus-content blood of the Purple Eyes Zombie…
“Hurry up and get moving!”
Ling Mo waved his arm vigorously, his back to the group.
Of all times, now they get hungry? Can they even eat that?!
One bite and it’s all spikes!
Ye Lian immediately snapped out of it, wide-eyed as she glanced at the sole of the Purple Eyes Zombie’s foot. She then quickly jumped onto Xiao Bai, ready to make a run for it.
The Purple Eyes Zombie grew anxious at this sight.
But Ling Mo stood in its way. This human had gone through great effort just to injure its sole. Though the wound wasn’t severe, it kept bleeding.
“Human…” The Purple Eyes Zombie was getting angry.
“No need to remind me,” Ling Mo said, blinking hard.
“…” The Purple Eyes Zombie fell silent again, evidently unsure how to respond.
It slowly took two steps forward, moving out of the sunlight.
At this point, Ling Mo’s blurred vision finally cleared enough to see the Purple Eyes Zombie’s appearance.
But after just one glance, Ling Mo felt significantly more alert.
This… this isn’t right!
The figure standing in the shadows had extremely rough skin, with slightly tousled long hair draped over its back, dressed in overly large clothes.
At first glance, it looked no different from the zombies wandering the streets.
But a closer look at its arms would send chills down anyone’s spine.
Ling Mo finally understood why it was so fast: this zombie didn’t rely solely on its legs.
From Ling Mo’s perspective, he could see a nearly transparent membrane between the zombie’s arms and its body.
Its arms were somewhat deformed, as if the bones inside had undergone some bizarre transformation.
But on closer inspection, not only the bones, but also the skin and veins had undergone some horrifying changes.
When it slightly spread its arms, the membrane stretched out as well.
The veins on the membrane were clearly visible, seemingly covered with numerous tiny blood vessels.
“This… this…”
Ling Mo’s eyes widened: “It’s a Birdman!”
