My Girlfriend is a Zombie-Chapter 671: Its a Secret

“Ah, I wonder how they’re doing…”

Ling Mo glanced back and then turned his attention to Ye Lian.

Primarily, he was looking at her eyes.

Actually, what Ling Mo just said was a general idea. If you calm down and analyze it carefully, it breaks down to this—

Ye Lian’s eyes were like lenses that could automatically zoom in and out based on the situation.

As long as the attack was within her field of vision, which spanned 180 degrees, she could accurately capture every detail and angle, guiding her to make the most correct judgment.

Of course, this was the ideal situation. Based on Ling Mo’s earlier probing, while he could analyze to this extent, he also knew that Ye Lian had not yet reached this stage.

But after all, she had just advanced, and there was still a lot of room for improvement.

“Alright, let’s rest for now. You still need to consolidate.”

Ling Mo was about to help Ye Lian find a place to sit down when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a white shadow out of the corner of his eye.

He immediately stopped, somewhat puzzled, and looked in the direction where the white shadow had appeared.

It was probably because Ye Lian’s movements were a bit large during the earlier probing, causing something to stick out from her pocket.

At a glance, it looked like a small notebook.

This made Ling Mo pause in surprise. Finding gels, even flesh and blood, or some odd trinkets in a zombie’s pocket wasn’t unusual.

But discovering a notebook, that was really…

If this notebook had been on Xia Na, Ling Mo could somewhat understand.

But it was on Ye Lian!

Seeing Ling Mo’s strange expression, Ye Lian first looked at him blankly, then followed his gaze to her own body.

“Ah!”

Ye Lian quickly covered her pocket.

“What is that?”

Ling Mo was still too surprised to close his mouth, but at least he managed to ask a question.

He stared wide-eyed at Ye Lian, and Ye Lian also stared back at him with wide eyes.

After a moment of staring at each other, Ye Lian finally spoke.

She still kept her hand over her pocket, licked her lips, and slowly said, “Se…cret…”

“Ah?” Ling Mo was genuinely stunned this time.

But shock aside, once he regained his composure, Ling Mo still managed to smile. “Alright then, keep it safe. It almost fell out just now.”

While saying this, his gaze kept drifting to Ye Lian’s tightly clasped hands.

He was really curious…

“If…if the time…comes,” Ye Lian suddenly stammered, “I’ll…show it to you.”

“Alright,” Ling Mo nodded.

“Mm!” Ye Lian showed a happy smile and nodded vigorously.

After seating Ye Lian next to Xiao Bai, Ling Mo began pacing anxiously again.

“I wonder how they’re all doing…”

…

Meanwhile, a few kilometers away at an intersection.

The place was cluttered with various wrecked cars. On a rusty road sign above the highway, a place name could still be clearly seen: Cuihu, 35 kilometers ahead.

Around those wrecked cars were dozens of zombies slowly wandering.

In the greenery along the roadside, the shadows of zombies occasionally flitted by. Through the especially dense wild grass and branches, one could occasionally glimpse a flash of cold red light.

The entire intersection was silent, with all the zombies shuffling around like figures in a silent film.

However, this silent film was filled with horror and eeriness. Whether it was the twisted faces, the ferocious blood-red eyes, or even their mechanical and slow movements, everything carried a hint of bloodthirsty menace.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, a dark figure fell heavily from above.

As the feet landed on a wrecked car, a snapped cable also dropped to the ground, making a crisp “snap” sound.

The falling cable kicked up a cloud of dust as it hit the ground and then bounced back up.

Just as a zombie turned its head, a dark shadow swooped towards it.

The zombie was instantly sent flying, crashing into a roadside flower bed with a “thud.”

A streak of blood appeared on the flower bed…

But no zombies moved.

These beasts, which would usually go into a frenzy at the sight of living creatures or fresh meat, were now standing still, motionless. 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝑛ℴ𝑣𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮

In their ferocious eyes, one could faintly see a trace of fear.

“Snap!”

The figure on the wrecked car lightly jumped down, then leapt forward forcefully.

Effortlessly covering nearly fifteen meters, the figure’s hands pushed off a railing below, landing on the roadside.

Then, the figure raised its head, revealing eyes colder than ice, staring down the street.

Above the figure’s head was a road sign: Ahead, Xinlan Town Central Avenue.

“Heh heh…”

A strange sound, part laugh and part sneer, emanated from the figure’s throat.

“Whoosh!”

Before the sound faded, the figure had already darted forward.

Moving so quickly that only a blur could be seen, the figure treated obstacles like they were nothing, swiftly crossing flower beds and abandoned cars, racing towards the other end of the long street…

“Sigh…”

Ling Mo, with arms crossed, paced back and forth, then walked to the shop entrance and looked outside.

This place was a small alley connected to the main street outside, with few shops and even fewer zombies.

The few zombies that were there had been corralled into a house, with the door blocked by Ling Mo using some torn clothes.

He didn’t know how long the female zombies’ evolution would take, so it was better to be cautious.

Thankfully, the past few hours of hunting had been quite safe.

And when Ye Lian broke through just now, nothing unexpected happened…

However, at this moment, Ling Mo felt a tug at his temple, as if something was pulling at it.

“Hmm?”

He carefully sensed it but felt nothing unusual.

The doors remained tightly shut, and this sudden feeling didn’t seem to be a residual effect of their evolution…

Just as Ling Mo was about to check it out, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

A cold sweat trickled down his forehead.

“Don’t move.”

Using his peripheral vision, Ling Mo glanced at Ye Lian and Xiao Bai and whispered.

“Don’t look back.”

He added.

Ye Lian, who was about to turn her head instinctively, immediately stopped moving, but at this moment, her eyes had already turned red and white.

As for Xiao Bai, it was lying flat on the ground, its body visibly trembling.

Cold sweat soaked his back as Ling Mo felt his body tense up and an uncontrollable deep fear set in.

“Why? Why can’t I sense anything?”

Even now, he couldn’t sense anything.

But this feeling of danger was something Ling Mo, who had faced countless life-and-death situations, couldn’t possibly be mistaken about.

He held his breath, slowly turned his body, and directed his gaze towards a mirror inside the shop.

The moment he saw the mirror, Ling Mo’s eyes met another pair of eyes.

These were eyes he had never seen before—not crimson, but purple.

It was an eerie purple, a color that seemed to emerge only after countless blood coagulations.

And that gaze sent a bone-chilling coldness from Ling Mo’s feet to the top of his head in an instant.

He almost involuntarily felt a tinge of fear.

Not because of the opponent’s strength, but because this timing was terrible!

“Run… Run…”

Ling Mo parted his lips and squeezed out two words from his parched throat.

He didn’t know how long he could hold out, but at the very least, he couldn’t let Ye Lian, who had just advanced and was still unstable, make a move.

Not to mention the other female Zombies still evolving inside the house…

No, running wasn’t an option…

Ling Mo kept his eyes on those purple eyes, sensing they were also fixated on him.

Why were they staring at him? Was it because it was so unusual to see a human among so many Zombies and Mutation Beasts?

Just from those eyes, Ling Mo could tell that the opponent possessed intelligence…

“Take them and go.”

Ling Mo took a deep breath and suddenly turned around.

He couldn’t let a mere gaze intimidate him; his Psychic Power had reached a significant level by now.

He had the strength for this fight!

The moment he turned around, he yelled, “Go!”

At the same time, he issued a mental command, and Ye Lian instantly stood up but showed a look of resistance for the first time.

Her face was pale, her eyes so red they seemed about to bleed, and her fingers were clawed like an eagle’s talons.

This overwhelming sense of danger had triggered her instincts, but Ye Lian still didn’t want to leave.
