Chapter 722: Scared You to Death



Chapter 722: Scared You to Death

Zhang Yan froze for a moment and then questioned back, “Aren’t you guys from the headquarters?”

As soon as he asked, he wanted to slap himself. It was so obvious!

The knife he originally put down was immediately gripped again, and he looked at Ling Mo and Mu Chen with some vigilance. “Where are you guys from?”

If they were from a branch, someone should have been leading them… but it was obvious these two stumbled upon this place by chance.

Heishui City wasn’t big, and the city center was packed with Zombies. If they were avoiding Zombies, it was possible they could have ended up here by taking the outskirts.

But what Survivors would wander around aimlessly…?

“We are really from the headquarters… um… we’re from the Dongming branch. My name is Mu Chen, I’m an Advanced Member from Dongming. The headquarters might have records…” Mu Chen quickly explained.

Actually, even if there were no records, Mu Chen, being a core Member of the Dongming branch, was well aware of the branch leader Ai Feng’s details.

It wouldn’t be hard to confirm his identity by cross-checking later.

Zhang Yan was a bit taken aback, and after a long pause, he asked skeptically, “Why would someone from the Dongming branch come all the way here?”

“Well… it’s a big issue.” Mu Chen glanced back at Ling Mo and then turned to reply.

It wasn’t just a big issue; this matter could shake the Niepan headquarters to its core.

And the young man following him was the mastermind behind it…

What surprised Mu Chen even more was that Ling Mo, with his eyes hidden under the brim of his hat, seemed completely unshaken and appeared very calm.

Thinking back to his expression earlier…

“Damn, this guy is so good at acting!” Mu Chen thought angrily. No wonder he couldn’t help but remember how he was tricked…

“This way.”

Leading the way, Zhang Yan occasionally glanced back, feeling somewhat amused.

“These two bumpkins, scared to death by a Canine Zombie…”

Seeing Ling Mo and Mu Chen keeping their distance, Zhang Yan felt significantly better.

Even the Canine Zombie, which had disgusted him, now seemed less repulsive.

However, in his smugness, Zhang Yan didn’t notice that the Canine Zombie kept glancing back, glaring at one of them…

“That Monster is really gross. Have you noticed it’s been staring at us?” Mu Chen asked in a low voice.

“Yeah, it’s probably taken a liking to you,” Ling Mo replied, keeping a straight face. His words nearly made Mu Chen stumble.

“Damn! It’s a male!” Mu Chen initially wanted to snap back, but remembering the things he heard last night, he couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

It’s not fair…

As they spoke, they followed the main road to the iron gate of the Niepan headquarters.

Along the way, every time they passed a building, Ling Mo was Sensing for any Zombies inside but found none.

It seemed Buildings No.1, No.2, and No.3 were not easy to locate…

With someone leading them, he couldn’t exactly check out the building Xiao Bai investigated yesterday.

Nearing the playground, Ling Mo refocused his attention on the Canine Zombie.

The psychic light cluster of this Canine Zombie was indeed chaotic, worse than the one from Building No. 1.

Judging by the state of the psychic light cluster, the Canine Zombie was at most at the evolution level of a common zombie.

Ling Mo knew that not probing thoroughly now would make it impossible to use his psychic power freely once inside the headquarters.

“Wait here…” Zhang Yan said nonchalantly, then led the Canine Zombie away.

The two guards had changed shifts. As the Canine Zombie approached, they both frowned in disgust.

After a brief conversation among the three, one of the guards peeked at Ling Mo and Mu Chen.

“Come on over,” Zhang Yan beckoned.

One of the guards stepped forward, saying, “Standard procedure here, we have to search you.”

The other guard took position behind the Machine Gun, clearly ready for any trouble.

“Security is indeed tight…” Ling Mo thought.

But the body search was no big deal; Ling Mo and Mu Chen only brought essential items when they left.

“Hand over your weapons. I’ll take them to the registration desk for you in a bit,” the guard who was to conduct the search said, maintaining a distance.

They were cautious with strangers…

Their behavior hinted at the kind of scrutiny they’d face inside the headquarters, but Ling Mo and Mu Chen weren’t too surprised.

“At the headquarters, you can only retrieve your weapons when heading out on a mission,” Zhang Yan explained, though his tone suggested he wasn’t concerned but rather just passing the time.

Ling Mo pulled out a rusty Rebar and handed it over to the guard.

Mu Chen also handed his knife to the guard, who kept a watchful eye on their every move before taking the Rebar and knife.

Relieved of their weapons, the guard visibly relaxed.

“Open your bags and stand still,” he commanded next.

“Feels like we’re going through airport security…” Mu Chen muttered, somewhat annoyed.

The guard cautiously patted down various parts of Ling Mo’s body, then focused on Ling Mo’s clothing. “What’s in your pockets?” he asked.

Mu Chen, having just been searched, immediately tensed up. He knew Ling Mo often carried all sorts of odd items and worried he might have something he shouldn’t.

Although Mu Chen believed Ling Mo wouldn’t be that careless, he couldn’t help but feel nervous.

The guard had a keen sense for reading expressions and instantly noticed Mu Chen’s reaction. He grasped the handle of his gun. “Take it out,” he ordered.

Ling Mo felt a bit exasperated. Having encountered special forces like Tom, he recognized some of the guard’s postures and moves.

Clearly, both guards were military personnel.

“Whoever the Boss is, they’ve got some serious clout, using soldiers as guards…” Ling Mo thought as he nonchalantly pulled out a Jellyfish from his pocket.

The guard eyed the Jellyfish suspiciously and reached out to inspect it.

“Plop!”

Ling Mo squeezed the Jellyfish decisively. Seeing Ling Mo make a move, the guard immediately drew his gun, his expression turning serious. Within seconds, the other guard jumped to the Machine Gun and shouted, “What do you doing?!”

Even Zhang Yan instinctively took a step back, almost letting go of the Canine Zombie.

After a second, he saw that Ling Mo had simply opened his hand, revealing the Jellyfish-like object quietly lying in his palm.

“Just a toy, with some special sentimental value,” Ling Mo explained calmly.

As soon as he said “special sentimental value,” the previously wary guards exchanged looks of understanding.

However, the over-the-top reactions of all three guards, only to be frightened by a small toy, left them a bit embarrassed.

Ling Mo found it amusing but also felt a growing sense of caution toward the Niepan headquarters.

Keeping these people on such high alert in a relatively peaceful environment was undoubtedly due to the leadership’s capability.

Mu Chen had also been startled. He often saw Ling Mo merely move his hand to make Zombies drop dead all around.

It was only when Ling Mo opened his hand that Mu Chen realized what he was doing.

“This is supposed to be a stealth mission. Coming in and killing someone isn’t exactly stealthy…”

“Cough, cough… Follow me,” the guard said, somewhat abashed but noticeably more polite than before.

Zhang Yan, a bit embarrassed himself, glanced at Ling Mo and Mu Chen before leading the Canine Zombie away.

“Woo… woo…” The Canine Zombie snarled at Ling Mo with its tongueless mouth, only to be yanked away by Zhang Yan.

“Stop that!” Zhang Yan was clearly irritated again.

The guard, carrying the weapons of Ling Mo and Mu Chen, led them through the Square in front of the building.

As they crossed, Ling Mo sensed several pairs of eyes scrutinizing them.

No need to guess; those watches undoubtedly belonged to those manning the firepower points.

New members were rare here, and those without any old members accompanying them, like Ling Mo and Mu Chen, were even rarer.

Ling Mo also felt a faint trace of mental energy sweep over him, pausing briefly on his body.

He frowned slightly. Being scanned and probed would make any mental ability superhuman uncomfortable.

Whoever was doing this scanning, they’re excessively blatant…

Ling Mo discreetly followed the direction of the psychic probe and immediately locked eyes with someone.
