My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 528: The Experiment Never Ends

“Congratulations on becoming my first test subject.”

Although Ling Mo didn’t voice it out loud, the maniacal gleam in his eyes and the sinister smile on his lips were fully perceived by Lucy.

She glanced at Ling Mo, then turned to look at Jian Qi, who was left with only the strength to fend off the relentless assault, and suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

“When did it start… What made me fall under the illusion that Ling Mo was one of the good guys?”

Lucy shook her head vigorously and then silently stepped back a few paces.

She had no place in such a fierce battle.

As Ling Mo had called out “Don’t kill him”, the girls’ movements were inevitably constrained.

But their bizarre mobility and seamless cooperation left Jian Qi, who was fighting with all his might, without any chance to counter.

Ling Mo stood on the outskirts, occasionally striking Jian Qi with his tentacles, each attack leaving new wounds on Jian Qi’s body.

Jian Qi seethed with rage inside the circle, unable to lay a finger on Ling Mo.

Such a tactic… It was infuriatingly unfair!

Jian Qi, fuming with anger, wished he could peel off Ling Mo’s skin bit by bit, but the more agitated he got, the more openings he exposed.

This, in turn, gave Ling Mo the chance to strike, and with a couple of ‘puff’ sounds, two more bursts of blood bloomed on Jian Qi’s back.

“This won’t do, I’ll be toyed to death at this rate…”

Jian Qi’s stamina was rapidly depleting, he gasped for air, watching the three girls move agilely around him.

One girl wielded a scythe with a wide attack range, blocking his attempts to break through several times with her long hair fluttering.

Another’s weapon was bizarre, and her movements were unpredictable, nearly impossible to defend against.

And the girl with the sniper rifle, though she never seemed intent on shooting or using the gun as a bludgeon, had incredibly quick reflexes and excellent dynamic vision!

His moves were fast and varied, and even the scythe-wielding girl and the tall “mixed-breed” were often deceived by his feints.

However, they intercepted quickly enough that Jian Qi couldn’t escape.

But the sniper rifle girl seemed to see through all his moves at first glance. As soon as he made a feint, in the next second, she would already counter his real attack.

He had never encountered anyone who could reduce him to such a state, almost without any chance to retaliate!

Most crucially, the three of them moved in a way that defied all logic!

Leaping into the air, then suddenly clinging to the ceiling, followed by a drop right in front of him – he had never heard of such triple-jump movement techniques!

And it didn’t seem like these girls possessed the psychic abilities to perform such feats. The obvious conclusion was that this was Ling Mo’s doing.

The problem was, he was a mental ability user!

Even if his mental power was special, it shouldn’t be capable of producing such effects!

But the harsh reality was right in front of him, relentlessly torturing him, leaving no room for disbelief.

Ling Mo stood before him, seemingly doing nothing, yet Jian Qi felt as though he was being beaten down bit by bit, quickly reduced to something akin to a dead dog at Ling Mo’s feet.

“Damn! That bastard… At this rate, I’ll be dead before I even touch him!”

Jian Qi was seething with rage, aware that he couldn’t hold on much longer.

“Don’t kill him,” Ling Mo shouted, making it clear that he wanted to pry more information out of Jian Qi.

The reason he raised his voice was obviously to make Jian Qi see the situation clearly and consider surrendering.

In fact, that was precisely what Ling Mo was planning…

However, Jian Qi only thought about it for a moment before dismissing the idea, the chill in his bones overriding his thoughts.

Not to mention whether Ling Mo would spare him if he surrendered, even if he managed to survive for now, sooner or later, he would fall into *their* hands…

Just thinking of those people sent waves of deep fear surging from the depths of Jian Qi’s heart.

“Death awaits either way! I might as well fight!”

With a sudden grit of his teeth, Jian Qi slapped something at his waist.

“Crack!”

A crisp sound indicated something had shattered.

His palm was now covered in fresh blood.

“It seems… he’s been pushed to the edge,” Ling Mo said with a slight squint of his eyes, his tone mocking.

Lucy heard the crisp sound too. She looked at Jian Qi, whose face had suddenly turned very red, then sharply turned to Ling Mo: “You weren’t… waiting for him to do that, were you?”

“If he’s got a death wish, who can stop him?” Ling Mo snorted coldly.

But it was a good opportunity to observe. Ling Mo had taken note of the man’s scheming, but what interested him more was what else the man knew.

Now that Jian Qi was willing to be a guinea pig, wasn’t it just perfect?josei

Though thinking this, Ling Mo immediately increased the output of his psychic energy.

Nearly the entire corridor was filled with his blood-red tentacles.

Sky Strangler, that was merely the first step…

The Potion rapidly merged with the blood, making the abnormal flush on Jian Qi’s face even more pronounced.

His expression twisted grotesquely, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, and his wounds burst open one after another.

It was clear he was in agony…

“Ling Mo! I really despise you to the core! You want to catch me? Good, because I want to capture you alive too. Lucy was deceived by you, but not me. You’re hiding many secrets too, aren’t you? Once I dig out all those secrets, you’ll make a fine specimen…”

Jian Qi, now a bloodied figure, fended off the attacks of the female zombies while clenching his teeth and growling.

The Potion in his system was like an instant injection of an enhanced stimulant, boosting Jian Qi’s strength dramatically in a moment.

Feeling his power swiftly returning, even stronger than before, Jian Qi dodged frantically while letting out a low “heh heh heh” chuckle.

“Can’t stop taking the medicine after all…”

It was evident that his mind was also affected; he had been able to restrain his rage before, but now he had completely lost it.

“Drinking poison to quench thirst… this Potion is truly meant for a specimen.”

Ling Mo felt a tinge of disappointment in his heart, but then he reconsidered; he wasn’t in need of excitement, after all.

Jian Qi’s research was limited, but what about the people behind him?

The talk of a “perfect form” didn’t seem like something he would come up with on his own.

Moreover, the fact that he’d rather fight to the death than surrender suggested that the forces behind Jian Qi must be quite threatening.

Otherwise, in this chaotic world, wouldn’t it be easy for one person to hide?

However, soon after, Ling Mo discovered the unique property of this Potion.

The wounds that had burst open on Jian Qi’s body… they were clotting.

“Such strong regenerative abilities… This is somewhat similar to the Spider Queen’s blood, isn’t it? Although it’s not as potent as hers—just temporary clotting rather than healing… How did he manage to pull this off? It’s not possible that he managed to capture the Spider Queen, is it…?”

“Right!” Ling Mo suddenly thought of the key point.

This guy had repeatedly mentioned the commonality of the virus; it seemed he had managed to achieve some results in his research.

The “stimulant” for the ordinary zombies, the “restoration” of the mutated zombie Spider Queen, and the characteristic “mindless fury” that most zombies carried at a low level…

“Roar!”

With a low growl, Jian Qi swatted away the scythe in Shana’s hands, then charged crazily in Ling Mo’s direction.

His strength had more than doubled compared to before, and with his current momentum, if Ling Mo didn’t come up with a new strategy quickly, he would be overwhelmed and strangled by Jian Qi’s relentless assault.

“Strength increased, stamina boosted, but your Mental Sphere has weakened a lot, hasn’t it…”

As Jian Qi charged towards Ling Mo, an invisible wall suddenly appeared not far in front of him.

“Boom!”

The impact of the energy made even Lucy’s face turn pale.

Ling Mo felt a sharp pain on his scalp, but a cold smirk appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Among the mental Tentacles, there were many non-physical Mental Tentacles, and they were now attacking Jian Qi’s Mental Sphere!

As Jian Qi was repelled, his movements momentarily stiffened, and his head spun with dizziness.

And behind the spot where he landed, a blood-red shadow suddenly appeared, visible only to Ling Mo.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
