Chapter 716: Crawling Zombie

The two individuals who appeared were clearly superhumans. They suddenly emerged from the building, and if it werent for them speaking as they exited, they might have only been discovered visually.

Ling Mo stared at the newcomers warily, ready for any unexpected situation.

He prepared to flee if necessary, silently cursing his negligence.

His attention hadnt been on Xiao Bai all the time, and he hadnt realized that the mutation panda had gotten so close to the building. In this situation, he couldnt even sense footsteps

However, when it came to such searches, Xiao Bai was definitely stronger

At the very least, Xiao Bai could find people quickly, whereas Ling Mos control over zombie puppets would require a painstaking search.

Rain weakened Xiao Bai but completely neutralized common zombies.

In this environment, a common zombie could only wander aimlessly.

At this moment, the two people stared at Xiao Bai for a few seconds through the gra.s.s. Li-Ge looked suspiciously, seemingly ready to check it out at any moment.

After a few seconds without any reaction, he finally turned his head away. Nothing, I might be a bit paranoid I felt like someone was watching me.

Hes quite alert!

Ling Mo initially thought the other person had sensed Xiao Bais presence, but it seemed it was just the visual perception

Haha The other person chuckled indifferently and said, If it were a zombie, it would have charged out by now Speaking of zombies, did you hear about the zombie near Building No. 3 a few days ago? It cracked me up

Made it to Building No. 3? Mustve been dealt with, right

Of course! It was hilarious

As the voices faded away, Ling Mos heartbeat gradually returned to normal.

Luckily, Xiao Bais stealth ability was indeed terrifying

There was a reason he had Xiao Bai do this instead of randomly controlling a zombie puppet

Many superhumans were gathered here, and some were bound to possess strong psychic power.

If discovered, they could easily detect the anomalies in the zombie puppet.

On the other hand, Xiao Bai was adept at hiding and was quick. Even if found, he could leave swiftly.

Even an enhancement ability superhuman couldnt possibly catch up to this mutation panda.

Most importantly, Xiao Bai had natural camouflage, allowing him to get close enough

However, what was going on at Niepan headquarters? How could there still be zombies?

Given the defenseless environment, maybe zombies could really wander in

That male member mentioned Building No. 3 So, theres also a Building No. 1 and Building No. 2?

This matched Ling Mos guesses. The Medical University had several well-equipped buildings, and no matter how many people were in Niepan headquarters, it couldnt exceed the total capacity of a former university.

This place was fundamentally different from large camps like Falcon, which absorbed survivors everywhere

After listening to their chat, Ling Mo had gathered some information but also felt somewhat baffled.

Zombies roaming around randomly-this didnt seem like a safe environment

The members here seem to move around quite frequently. It was so easy to encounter two of them But since its raining, there must be fewer people than usual. If I dont take this chance to investigate now, itll be harder later. At night, the security might be even tighter, making it impossible to find anything

Ling Mo didnt plan to sneak into these buildings in the middle of the night. Who knew what surprises awaited inside? Stirring things up unnecessarily was definitely unwise.

This time, with experience, Ling Mo directed Xiao Bai to stay away from the buildings, moving only within the greenbelt areas.

Once they spotted people, they could sneak closer quietly

But in the next hour or so, they didnt see anyone.

After pa.s.sing by a playground, a semicircular square suddenly appeared ahead.

Peeking through the gra.s.s, Ling Mo was surprised to discover that this was the center!

The connected buildings within the square formed the real Niepan headquarters.

Once here, getting Xiao Bai close stealthily became much more difficult.

Hiding in the gra.s.s and looking out, Ling Mo saw a fence similar to those around basketball courts, completely enclosing the square. The only gap was guarded by two sentries, with two machine guns stationed nearby.

Inside the square, at the nearest window, there was also a black dot, obviously another shooting point.

From Xiao Bais perspective, other locations couldnt be seen, but it was certain they were fully defended as well.

It seemed that the so-called Building No. 3 and others were just undefended buildings outside the iron fence.

Why would they have numbered buildings outside the headquarters Ling Mo thought about it but couldnt come up with an answer, so he temporarily set the question aside. Having finally found the Niepan headquarters, he needed to observe carefully.

These buildings were connected by suspended corridors, built in a modern style, but the distances between them were still quite far.

This made the internal environment considerably more complex

Forget it, I knew it would be difficult. This only makes it a bit harder. And the complex environment might not be entirely bad; it could disperse their numbers, making it easier to move around.

Ling Mo glanced at the tallest red building among them. It was located at the very center of the iron defensive circle and might be the most important place in Niepan headquarters

But just then, Ling Mo suddenly felt Xiao Bais psychic fluctuation intensify abruptly.

For it to spike like this meant something was happening something behind!

Without needing Ling Mo to give orders, Xiao Bai silently and swiftly moved deeper into the gra.s.s and cautiously looked back.

The moment he caught a glimpse, Ling Mo felt his scalp tingle.

A blood-red-eyed zombie, on all fours, was being pulled by an impatient-looking man. Like a dog, it slowly crawled towards the gra.s.s.

He sniffed vigorously, as if he had found something.

This is so annoying Were already at the headquarters, what could be here So unlucky, finally got to the headquarters, and Im still just a reserve

The man was clearly disgruntled. He flicked the iron chain in his hand, causing the zombie to instantly howl in agony.

Only then did Ling Mo notice the special handle at the other end of the chain. The brief electric sound he heard indicated it was an electric discharger

Such a device was clearly effective for tormenting zombies.

However, the creature crawling on the ground didnt quite look like a pure zombie. At its level, it shouldnt have such a significant reaction to pain

But when the zombie opened its mouth, Ling Mo noticed something-there was only a tongue inside; no teeth could be seen.

Is it to prevent it from biting people? Looks like Niepan headquarters uses this crawling zombie as a patrol dog

Ling Mo furrowed his brows. Although zombies and humans stood on opposing sides, Niepan headquarters conducted experiments on both. They had no way to make wild zombies obedient. These crawling zombies were probably created using live humans

The number of humans is already limited, and theyre only concerned with the survival of a select few If it were truly for survival, it might be forgivable. But its clear theyre aiming to increase their power

Ling Mo understood why Niepan headquarters conducted these experiments. No matter how powerful a superhuman was, they were still extremely vulnerable to zombies. Especially when facing a large number of zombies, humans were at an absolute disadvantage.

Even a camp like Falcon, with its semi-military nature, suffered severe losses and high casualties when fighting a large number of zombies. Not to mention, extensive preparations were required before any battle

Being large camps, Ling Mo naturally compared Falcon and Niepan headquarters.

Though their natures were entirely different, ultimately, both sought survival.

But Niepan headquarters clearly had numerous issues in this regard

Xiao Bai remained motionless in its spot, the rain masking its scent, its presence completely concealed. Even at a distance of less than twenty meters, unless seen, it was impossible for the opponent to detect Xiao Bai.

On the other hand, Xiao Bai could leap at any moment, and a Panda Fall would be enough to eliminate both the man and the zombie on the spot.

That crawling zombie was just a common zombie, and the man behind it didnt seem particularly strong either.

If he were powerful, he wouldnt be patrolling with a zombie in the rain

No wonder this member was in a bad mood; anyone in his place would be displeased
