Not far from the road, the motionless Mo Ling, who was buried under the mountain of corpses, suddenly opened his eyes.
Her eyebrows moved slightly as she heard the sound of the truck starting.
Is it three hours?
So fast..
Need to intercept?
She stood up slowly and struggled to push aside the roaring zombies in front of her, leaving a gap.
Through the gap, a truck not far away was approaching the edge of the road at extremely high speed.
The direction seems to be the way we came.
Team voice.
"Lin An, someone among the students in the blue van started the car. They seem to be preparing to return to the base."
"Zi-"
The news seemed to have been interfered with, and Lin An didn't seem to hear it.
Where Mo Ling couldn't see, the mountain of corpses was crawling with tiny red spiders. The spiders burrowed in and out of the zombies, but the dead, who had no sense of pain, showed no reaction.
"I repeat, if someone leaves, do you want to stop them?"
Still no response.
Mo Ling frowned, feeling a little uneasy.
Forget it, just follow Lin An's previous instructions.
Stop them first and kill them if they don't obey...
Mo Ling no longer hesitated and activated the skill again, positioning the summoning location to the entrance of the highway.
Just by continuously summoning zombies, the originally small amount of mental energy was somewhat depleted.
She couldn't help but rub her eyebrows because she had a headache.
The location is a bit vague, and it looks like I have to stop him with a group of corpses.
What a hassle...
Mo Ling moved slowly, and the mountain of corpses also moved. A large number of zombies rolled from the top to the ground and then surrounded them again.
........
Inside the restaurant on the fourth floor.
Lin An watched indifferently as the "man" in front of him was clumsily making tea. There was a tea set on the table that he didn't know where he got it from.
"No need for tea, tell me what happened here."
"besides."
"Who are you."
The voice was cold. He really had no time to drink tea with a monster, especially since every time the man raised his hand, many spiders would fall into the tea cup.
The man raised his head when he heard the sound, and his face made of spiders seemed to be trying to form a smile.
It's just that when even the facial features are blurred, it looks terrifying.
Gao Tian stood vigilantly behind Lin An, never putting down the compound bow in his hand.
"I think."
"Let me introduce myself first..."
The man spoke slowly. He felt Lin An's murderous intent and regretfully put down the tea cup in his hand.
"I am the owner of this restaurant, my name is Lin Yuming."
“I usually like to make tea, so I run this specialty restaurant...”
"sulfuric acid!"
The blade was unsheathed, and Lin An held the knife against the man's throat with one hand.
Although the humanoid figure made of spiders was not harmful at all, the man's nonsense still aroused Lin An's murderous intention.
"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!"
The mission time limit is still 20 minutes, and there is no prompt to complete it yet. If it continues any longer, members of the team will be randomly wiped out!
Lin An would never have allowed this monster to live in front of him for one more second if he had not been unable to do anything.
"If you keep nagging me, I'll kill you! At worst, I'll look for clues about human skin from your body."
Since the monster said it had been observing him secretly, Lin An did not need to hide his purpose.
The existence detected before should be the monster in front of us.
He secretly observed but never made a move, which shows that the monster is not very strong!
He didn't believe the nonsense that the man in front of him wanted to chat with.
"You have a really bad temper."
The spider on the man's face suddenly changed and turned into features similar to those of a woman.
Along with this, even the tone of his voice changed.
She stretched out her arm to cover her mouth and chuckled, not caring about the blade against her throat.
"Okay, since you are so anxious, I won't say anything more."
"It's such a pity. I haven't chatted with anyone for a long time."
"who are you!"
Lin An's voice was cold, and his mental strength began to prepare in advance to release the divine thorn.
After feeling Lin Ansan's overflowing spiritual power, the woman took back the "smile" on her face.
"All right."
"As you can see, I'm not human anymore, not even myself."
"I am..."
"A lot of people..."
"I was indeed the boss here before the apocalypse."
"You know, as a competent boss, I will personally taste every new dish."
"Unfortunately, it is just as you and your companions guessed."
"I was parasitized in my brain by spider eggs."
"Then how did you become like this!? Wouldn't you die after being parasitized? Unless you will become a mutant if you eat the crabs downstairs, how did you become a bunch of... spiders?"
Gao Tian couldn't help but ask, the woman's current form was obviously not in line with Lin An's previous speculation.
"Because I am the awakened one."
The woman picked up the spider that fell on the table and filled it back into her eyes.
"I became an awakener after the doomsday outbreak."
"The Awakened can resist the spider egg's desire for sources of pollution."
"Didn't you meet Wang Teng? Well, he was the one who was killed by your bomb."
"He awakened with me. After I awakened, I was dragged back to my nest by the marrow-sucking spider."
"It's the chef you saw."
"There, I became what I am now after being melted."
"Perhaps my awakening ability is related to bugs. After I woke up again, I merged with other people's memories, and I have been staying here since that day."
"After all, I know I look like a monster, and I don't want to hurt anyone."
"Even when Wang Teng was able to enter the mall many times, I was secretly helping him."
"Otherwise, with his poor skills, how could he have been able to get in and out so many times?"
Something strange flashed in Lin An's eyes, and he remembered what Wang Teng had said.
(I was very scared at that time because I hadn’t awakened yet.)
After the woman finished speaking, she sighed softly, lowered her head and murmured to herself.
"Actually, what I'm saying is just to tell you that I am actually your kind."
"I really don't mean any harm. I can even give you some good things."
"I just hope you can help me find my parents and tell them that I am still alive."
Spiders fell from the woman's eyes like tears.
Gao Tian's originally prepared bow and arrow was somewhat loosened. Although the woman's appearance was frightening, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy in his heart.
"Brother Lin, she seems to be really not a bad person."
Lin An did not respond to Gao Tian's words. The blade remained unchanged. Instead, he stood up slowly and spoke every word.
"you are lying."
"If you were parasitized by spider eggs before the apocalypse broke out, you would definitely go downstairs to eat the source of pollution and accelerate mutation."
"Because what's in your mind is the mother's egg, just like the woman downstairs."
"Ordinary people cannot resist the control of spider eggs, just like the human-faced crabs that appeared later."
"They will lose their minds just by being parasitized by ordinary spider eggs, let alone the mother eggs in your brain."
"So, it is only possible that you became an awakened person immediately after the doomsday broke out."
"As you said, only the awakened can resist the summons of spider eggs."
"Then the marrow-sucking spider must appear after you become an awakened one."
Lin An looked cold and stood up slowly.
"even."
"That marrow-sucking spider was created by you."
