Chapter 6 (2/2)

After a moment of silence, suddenly there was a muffled sound from inside as if something had been knocked over.

“There’s really someone in there!”

Ling Mo froze for a second before knocking loudly again. Clangs sounded out from inside but the door didn’t move at all.

Were they so famished that they didn’t have any energy? Ling Mo had a bad feeling as he heard the sounds from inside. In any case, he had to open the door in order to get the knives inside.

Ling Mo wasn’t strong enough to kick the door open himself, but it wasn’t difficult with Ye Lian’s help.

With a loud bang, the door cracked open and a hand pushed through the gap before Ling Mo could open the door completely.

Ling Mo’s pupils shrank as soon as he saw the hand. At first glance, it didn’t look unusual, but on closer inspection, the nails were slightly red and made crunching sounds as it clamped the door. It was exactly the same as Ye Lian!

Was there another mutated zombie inside?!

Although he has speculated about it before, Ling Mo was still surprised when he saw that there were mutated zombies other than Ye Lian.

Judging from the size of the hand alone, it was probably a man. That meant Wang Ling was probably already dead…

Rage overtook him as he thought of the owner of this hand tearing Wang Ling into pieces and shoving her into his stomach. He lifted the sharp blade in his hand and slammed down. Fresh blood splattered everywhere as half the hand fell to the ground, and the door completely cracked open under Ling Mo’s violent attack.

Behind the fallen door, an extremely bloody scene appeared before Ling Mo.

The workshop wasn’t big. The wall and the floor were all covered with bloodstains and ripped clothes, and human bones were scattered everywhere. There were two intact skeletons on the ground, both facing down, exposing the back of their heads which were hollow.

The only one alive in here was a young man who had been knocked down by the door. As soon as he fell down, he jumped up like a strike of lightning and threw himself at Ling Mo.

It was the first time time Ling Mo had faced a direct attack from a mutated zombie. It was so fast that he didn’t have any time to react. If it was the old Ling Mo, he would’ve lost his life right here. However, he was extremely calm after having become stronger.

Although the mutated zombie was rather quick, Ling Mo wasn’t slow to react either. Ling Mo moved at the same second as the mutated zombie.

He took half a step back and moved to the side, slashing his knife toward the mutated zombie with all his might.

Pfff!

Blood exploded when Ling Mo and the zombie attacked. Ling Mo turned ninety degrees in the process. He stabbed into the zombie’s stomach and dragged the knife upwards before slashing down again.

If it had been a normal zombie, he would definitely have been hurt by Ling Mo’s smooth attack, but the mutated zombie was too fast. Ling Mo turned around and so did the zombie. He not only avoided Ling Mo’s slash, but ran at Ling Mo and stretched his hands out toward Ling Mo’s chest.

It wouldn’t be just a flesh wound if he was caught by the mutated zombie’s fingers, and it was impossible for Ye Lian to help at this angle.

“You’re looking to die!”

In a life-threatening situation like this, the bloodlust inside Ling Mo finally exploded. He not only didn’t flee, but even twisted his wrist and attacked downwards again. He lifted his knee abruptly to hit the zombie’s chin, staggering him for a second.

Even one-tenth of a second was fatal. In this short moment, the sharp knife in Ling Mo’s hand had stabbed into the back of the zombie’s neck.

Ka!

There was a light sound and then the zombie’s movement stopped. Ling Mo clenched his teeth and twisted the knife with all his might.

Pa!

The blade of the knife had snapped off crisply. The part of the knife remaining in the zombie’s body had completely ended his life.

Grasping the broken knife in his hand, Ling Mo felt like all the energy had drained away from his body and he couldn’t help but pant violently.
