My Girlfriend is a Zombie-Chapter 970: The Dark Cuisine of the Virus World

The Monster was indeed motionless… When Ling Mo used his Tentacle to flip it over, he found that its head was already a mess. Both eyes were sunken in, and its torso was covered in deep, bone-revealing wounds. The massive exhaustion and continuous injuries ultimately became the two sharp blades that ended it. Its final frenzied charge at Ling Mo was the last straw that broke its back…

The more it got hurt, the more it went into a Frenzy, creating a vicious cycle.

“With the speed it showed earlier, it would have been really difficult to aim at it…” Ling Mo stared at the Monster for a moment and sighed. Its small size and incredible speed made it a challenging target for precise attacks.

“Yeah… If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe these injuries were self-inflicted…” Xu Shuhan couldn’t help but comment.

This Monster’s Intelligence was surprisingly limited… Or perhaps it understood nothing beyond luring prey!

“But how did you know?” Xu Shuhan asked.

“It’s simple,” Ling Mo replied without looking up, “When it saw me with you, it didn’t show any surprise… It just drooled.”

“That’s true…” Xu Shuhan was taken aback. She didn’t expect such a straightforward answer… But thinking about it, it was precisely because it was simple that it was easily overlooked! How did he even notice that…

“It’s because I wasn’t cautious enough… He just paid attention to the basic details, but even so, it makes me feel the gap is huge…” Xu Shuhan thought, feeling somewhat defeated.

At this moment, Ling Mo had already put the Flashlight in his mouth and swiftly drew a dagger.

“What are you doing!” Xu Shuhan was startled and immediately had a bad feeling.

“Gel, there’s a strong virus scent in the wounds.” Ling Mo mumbled, then began to cut at the wounds on the corpse.

“You…” Xu Shuhan wanted to complain, but when she touched her pocket, she remembered she still had the virus gel Ling Mo gave her…

“Let me do it.” She suddenly said softly.

“Uh… No need, I…”

Ling Mo had just responded when he was pulled up, and the dagger in his hand was gone.

Xu Shuhan gripped the dagger, took a deep breath, and said, “I’ll do it. I can’t always trouble you guys…”

She spoke while staring at the corpse, frowning as she slowly extended her hand… ƒreewebɳovel.com

“Um… Can you not stare at me…” As the knife reached the wound, she suddenly added.

Ling Mo, holding the Flashlight, glanced at her with a complex expression, then silently turned his head.

“Plop!”

Two seconds later, the sound of the knife cutting into flesh finally came, followed by a series of chilling slicing sounds…

“Here…”

Xu Shuhan handed over the knife and gel, then turned away and retched.

“Your first reaction is quite intense…” Ling Mo said, patting her back while turning his head.

“I… hate you!” Xu Shuhan said, her mouth open as she “vomited” for a while, finally raising her tear-streaked face, “Now I know, being a Zombie isn’t easy…” ŘάΝốᛒĘṥ

“In what way?”

“Can’t vomit, can’t cry…” Xu Shuhan said helplessly.

“You can’t even have the three urges, and you still want to vomit…”

“…”

As they talked, Ling Mo was already examining the gel. He shone the Flashlight on it and said, “Just as I thought.”

“What?” Xu Shuhan leaned over to take a look, but immediately regretted it and turned away to retch again…

Under the light, the thumb-sized gel had a very peculiar color… Unlike Zombie gel, this Humanoid Monster’s gel was almost completely transparent, but its surface was covered with countless black veins. Holding it felt like holding a miniature organ. Because it was highly elastic, it felt almost “alive.”

Xu Shuhan was disgusted by this characteristic… It wasn’t just ugly, it was also bouncing…

“These Underground creatures are a completely different species from Zombies. Their essence might be the same, but they’ve completely diverged in other aspects. Even the location of the gel is different… Zombies have it in their Hindbrain, but this Monster’s gel is inside its body. If I’m not mistaken, it’s in the heart?” Ling Mo asked.

“Yeah…” Xu Shuhan nodded with a pale face, covering her mouth, “In the heart… Ugh!” Thinking about the process of digging out the heart, she bent over again…

“Really… So, does that mean humans could also develop gel inside their bodies? Not regular people, but superhumans… Could some of them have already formed something like gel or a mother hive as an ‘energy battery’? But never mind, this hypothesis is hard to prove, so let’s set it aside for now.” Ling Mo said as he carefully stored the gel, “But these Monsters seem to produce very little gel… Could it be that the energy it contains is much higher? Like the virus concentration?”

Xu Shuhan looked at him in shock, “You’re still thinking about eating it!”

“Why else would I dig it out…” Ling Mo said.

“You can’t eat this! It’s like the dark cuisine of the virus world!” Xu Shuhan exclaimed. Are you kidding! This thing isn’t even a proper Zombie! Who knows what it really is! It might be some newly evolved organ! Sure, organs are food, but Ye Lian and the others don’t even eat meat!

“But before that, I’ll give it to Old Lan for research. Eating random things can affect evolution…” Ling Mo said, “Different viruses can affect the virus inside, ultimately either being Devoured or causing a variation in the main body…”

“I see, you scared me…” Xu Shuhan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he was really going to give it to Ye Lian and the others… If they ate it, she wouldn’t know how to face them! But Ling Mo’s virus theory did make her shudder… If she kept eating male Zombie viruses, would she develop some weird traits…

“Ah, can’t think about it… It’s just a virus, it won’t affect me that much!” Xu Shuhan quickly shook her head.

“Less eating should be fine. Want to try?” Ling Mo added.

“No way!”

“Wait…”

Xu Shuhan wanted to say more, but Ling Mo suddenly gestured for her to be quiet.

They had walked some distance, but the rear was still silent. However, faint sounds were coming from the darkness ahead…

Ling Mo had already wrapped the Flashlight in his clothes. He silently took off his jacket, placed it with the Flashlight, and then pulled Xu Shuhan back a few steps, hiding in the darkness.

Xu Shuhan immediately understood Ling Mo’s intention. It was a test… If there was something ahead, their Flashlight would have been noticed long ago, and turning it off now would put them at a disadvantage. But if it just dimmed, the opponent’s vision would be affected. The sudden dimming would make it lose its target, and by the time it adjusted, Ling Mo and Xu Shuhan would be gone. To investigate, it would have to approach…

Even if the sounds were just normal sewer noises, this test would only delay them briefly.

“This is how humans survive…” Xu Shuhan thought, hiding behind Ling Mo. As a human, she hadn’t particularly realized this… She relied more on her abilities than on small tricks. Even when she used those tricks, she didn’t give them much importance. But now, seeing things from a Zombie’s perspective, she suddenly understood why humans could survive in this environment…

“Humans are much more insidious than Zombies!” Xu Shuhan thought again.
