Chapter 23 (2/2)
The only downside was that despite Ling Mo’s consciousness power evolved, his physical body didn’t breakthrough. After a morning of fighting, he felt exhausted even though he didn’t collapse.
“I wouldn’t be so useless if my physical body could evolve…”
Ling Mo’s stamina was already much better than ordinary people but he still felt gloomy as Ye Lian didn’t pant or have red cheeks.
Ling Mo grabbed Ye Lian’s arm and took deep breaths with efforts for quite a while before feeling slightly better. But when he straightened his back, he caught a glimpse of Ye Lian’s collar at close proximity.
Ye Lian wore a shirt he randomly found in a shop. Perhaps her movements were enlarged during the fight, the buttons of the shirt opened, revealing her deep cleavage. Ling Mo lifted his head up and his nose just happened to stop in front of her cleavage. He felt dizzy from the sight of Ye Lian’s pale and smooth skin, and he felt like there was a fire burning in his stomach.
Ling Mo stared at her cleavage for a long time and finally snapped back when he subconsciously pressed closer and closer.
“Control yourself! Control!”
Ling Mo had to help Ye Lian shower and change clothes because he didn’t have a choice, but he didn’t want to take advantage of the girl he liked in a situation like this, not to mention that it was already a treat for his eyes to glimpse at it…
He buttoned her shirt up and led her to the next destination. Since they put so much effort into coming here, he had to hunt as many as mutated zombies as he could for the gel-like part in their brain.
However, Ling Mo didn’t notice that not long after he left, a person whose body was dripping with blood suddenly appeared at the boulevard. A pair of malicious and fierce eyes but not completely bloodshot eyes stared at the other end of the boulevard where the overlapping buildings were.
This person was wrapped in bandages and what was horrifying was that any skin that could be seen was scratched until flesh showed. His nails were filled with a mixture of blood and flesh. The most frightening thing was his face. The flesh under his skin was showing, his mouth was parted slightly, revealing dark red gum, and a pair of bloodshot eyes which others couldn’t straight into.
Although he completely changed and was almost no longer in the shape of a human, it wasn’t hard to tell that it was Lu Xin, whom Xia Na and the others left behind in the supermarket.
“Haha…”
Lu Xin gurgled and forced out an extremely hoarse cold laugh. Then, he suddenly leaped forward. He soon crossed the boulevard, dashing into the area with buildings.
At this moment, Ling Mo took Ye Lian into the closest education building next to them. He didn’t know that when he arrived on the second floor by the stairs, Lu Xin sprinted past him at a distance of fewer than fifty meters.
“Hmm?”
Ling Mo suddenly felt a sense of desire from Ye Lian and immediately smiled. “There are mutated zombies in this building just as what we expected!”
