Chapter 1223: The Dug Trap
Inside the granary, Mu Chen and the others were resting, slowly regaining their strength. Judging from where they had gathered, everyone was trying to stay as far away as possible from the corpses blocking the entrance. But even so, the pungent smell of blood still drifted in.
“I inhale…” Black Silk took a deep breath, then revealed a hint of intoxication. She glanced at Ye Lian beside her and asked, “Isn’t this environment nice? All fresh.”
“…” Ye Lian glanced at her in silence, her eyes slightly confused.
“Alright, pretend I didn’t say anything. I just wanted to share some thoughts. For example, I think I just smelled type B blood… You know, actually, mixing different blood types with different meat textures creates different flavors. For instance, fresh meat around twenty years old mixed with type O…”
Before Black Silk could continue her science lesson, a sudden sound of footsteps came from behind. She immediately shut her mouth, then made a “shh” gesture to Ye Lian: “I’ll discuss this with you next time. I’ve already got half a Zombie Gourmet Guide in my head, and the grand finale is something you and I both know… Oh, master, you’re done already!”
She tilted her head to look behind Ling Mo and asked in a low voice, “Where are they? Have they all been eaten clean? If that’s the case, master, you should really nourish your kidneys… I heard there’s an old saying, ‘you are what you eat’…”
“You know quite a lot!” Ling Mo looked past her at the Miracle Team Members who were getting up one after another, replying calmly, “They’re all still alive. Right now, Pear and Senior Sister are escorting them. Once they go out the back door and hand them over to Xiao Bai, Senior Sister can return and tell them the corpses have been checked.”
“I see… There’s a back door here?” Black Silk asked in surprise.
“You’re focusing on the wrong thing! As for the back door… there will be one soon.”
Meanwhile…
In the pitch-black Corridor, a scraping sound continued without end…
Zzz… zzz…
“Shh!” Li Yalin’s voice suddenly rang out.
“We can’t be discovered by humans…”
Zzz… zzz…
“Then could you try not dragging me like this!” Ban Yue’s voice followed from the darkness.
Zzz…
“This is the sound of my butt rubbing against the ground!”
In the dimness, Ban Yue was being dragged along the ground by Li Yalin, who was holding her by the collar…
Li Yalin lowered her head to glance at her, then said, “But… Ling Mo told me to drag you away…”
“…Don’t use that ‘I’m actually very troubled’ tone!”
“But I am…”
“You…”
“Shh!” This time it was Pear who stopped them.
She was pulling the unconscious Simple, glanced around, and said, “I think I hear something…”
Li Yalin twitched her ears, then suddenly smiled: “It’s here.”
“What’s here…”
As Simple finished speaking, a large number of cracks suddenly appeared in the ground not far ahead. Immediately after, a big hole collapsed open.
When the dust settled, a huge head suddenly poked out, then shook hard, flinging off the dust from its fur:
“MeGu!”
Pear stared dumbfounded at Xiao Bai for a while, then sighed, “I never thought… a giant Panda could dig holes…”
“Alright, let it rub against you, then you can follow it.” Li Yalin said.
“Rub? To show affection?”
“To mark food.”
“Oh…”
Pear and Ban Yue both showed a look of sudden understanding…
Of course! This guy may look dumb and silly, but it’s still a mutation beast at heart…
And judging from Ling Mo’s arrangements…
That guy really is still guarding against them!
“Hmph, cunning human!”
“Exactly!”
“And even a mutation beast!”
Simple seemed to be jolted awake by the commotion. But just as she let out a cry of surprise, she was struck hard on the Hindbrain.
Li Yalin stood beside the fallen Simple, smiled at Pear who looked over, and said, “I’ll leave this task to you.”
“Eh?” Pear was stunned at first, then nodded, “I like this!”
“Hey! You got bought off so easily! Weren’t you just condemning Ling Mo with me?” Ban Yue said angrily.
As soon as the group entered the underground tunnel, Li Yalin stepped right on the edge.
Seeing the entire area turn into ruins, Li Yalin clapped her hands in satisfaction. “Well, this counts as a way of handling things too… Mm, as long as we say it’s been dealt with, that’s enough…” ŘÂɴ𝔬ʙЁṦ
…
“Captain.”
“Captain… are you all alright?”
Seeing Ling Mo and the others approach, Mu Chen and his group immediately came up to greet them.
“That Zombie…” Skinny Monkey asked hesitantly. As soon as he spoke, everyone showed a slightly strange expression.
Meanwhile, Ling Mo was feeling frustrated inside and sighed as he replied, “That question… I’d rather not talk about it.”
“Keep pretending…”
“Nice acting…”
“Go on, go on…”
Black Silk and the others all secretly gave a thumbs up… Ling Mo, on the other hand, was fuming inside: “I was forced into this too! Am I supposed to explain? That would only make things worse!”
As for what that simple one said…
Indeed, he couldn’t tell these people about the things he’d experienced, or about Ye Lian and the others’ identities…
And once they found out, their reactions would be…
“Why worry about the unknown? Still, it’s really interesting… That Zombie actually tried to sow discord like that. And… used such a direct method…” Ling Mo thought to himself.
Unfortunately, that Zombie girl picked the wrong target…
“This kind of thing has troubled me for too long, but now it doesn’t bother me anymore. But if she’s like this, then the one behind her… what have they done before…”
At this moment, Skinny Monkey and the others were stunned for a second, then all nodded in sudden understanding. “I get it, I get it…”
“We all understand…”
“But when exactly did you guys…”
“And the other side is still a Zombie…”
Mu Chen and Ye Kai had just started to ask, when Zhang Xincheng and Yuwen Xuan each covered their mouths.
“Sigh…” Ling Mo shook his head again. “It’s all in the past, let’s not talk about it…”
“Whimper whimper! But…”
“I don’t think anyone wants to stay here any longer, right? There aren’t many Zombies along the way anyway… In that case, let’s head back to the town today.” Ling Mo arranged, “Alright! No objections? None? Then it’s happily decided!”
Seeing Ling Mo leave quickly, Mu Chen finally broke free from Yuwen Xuan and shouted, “That guy changed the subject again!”
“You’ll get used to it…”
“Pack up and get ready to go…”
“Who’s going up on the roof to make an aerial marker?”
…
In the Town.
A helicopter was parked all alone on that rooftop…
Aside from the blood splattered across the walls, the surroundings were unusually quiet.
The only exception…
At this moment, a pair of eyes was staring in the direction Ling Mo and the others had left…
“Beep beep beep…”
“Hello?”
The owner of those eyes picked up a Communicator.
“Have you found out? …Is that so? …I see…”
After putting down the Communicator, he looked in that direction and gave a cold smile. “Miracle Squad, huh? Too bad… there’s no miracle this time… But, I am curious to see how long you can last… Let’s see what confidence that Ling Mo has, daring to come out in person under these circumstances…”
“This place will become your burial ground…”
He suddenly turned around and said to the dozens of Team Members standing behind him, “And this time, we will win!”
“Victory!” the Team Members answered in unison.
Uniform Camouflage Outfits, identical weapons and equipment, most of their blades still dripping with blood.
This town had already been cleared out by them… In its place was a massive trap…
“Heh heh… There’s no need to use these morale-boosting tricks on us…”
With a laugh, fifteen figures suddenly emerged from the shadows.
One of them was adjusting his glasses as he pushed them up and said, “After all… we are the real main force…”
“Falcon Squad…” the man with the Communicator smiled slightly. “We’ll be counting on you then.”
