That bloody, mangled little thing only paused in midair for a mont before being struck by the master ball. And at the instant the two made contact, the long-dormant master ball finally awakened…
Stimulated by the Progenitor, the master ball suddenly extended countless tentacles, instantly wrapping the little thing up completely. Its body then began to swell rapidly, like a balloon being inflated.
“Ahhh!”
A piercing scream rang out in Ling Mo’s mind. The thing struggled desperately, trying to break free, but in the end, it only crashed madly with the master ball between the Ceiling and the floor.
“Ah!” The woman scread as well. She suddenly let go of Ling Mo, scrambling and crawling to the stair railing, then peered through the bars at the Progenitor. “No! Stop! What is that? What did you just throw out?” She turned and shouted at Ling Mo.
“Nothing much, just one of the reasons it wants to kill . Doesn’t it want it so badly?” Ling Mo replied coolly. Co to think of it, it was this Progenitor Zombie that reminded him-the master ball was closely linked to him and possessed a domineering Devour ability. At the sa ti, it was the true kin of the Progenitor Zombie… If anything could provoke the master ball to attack, it would definitely be this…
The Progenitor Zombie did want it, but only after Devouring Ling Mo and then taking it. Maybe it had its eyes on the master ball’s traits… But in this situation, facing the master ball was a complete disaster for the Progenitor Zombie.
“Ahhh!” The Progenitor Zombie kept screaming. Suddenly afflicted, it imdiately fell into a disadvantage. When it finally managed to struggle out a crack with the help of the collisions, a psychic shock suddenly ca from Ling Mo’s direction.
Through the connected Tentacle, Ling Mo could keenly observe everything about the master ball, so whenever a flaw appeared, he would imdiately help patch it up. The Progenitor Zombie was already caught off guard, and now, realizing it was being attacked by both Ling Mo and the ball, it slowly sank into despair…
The woman was also falling into despair. After wailing for a while, she slowly grabbed the railing and pulled herself up, secretly drawing out a knife. After shaking her already dizzy head, she suddenly fixed Ling Mo with a cold smile. “You die too!” With a shout, she lunged at Ling Mo.
But before she could get close, a shadow shot out from the Rooftop. With a flash of cold gleam, the knife in her hand was knocked away with a clang. She showed a hint of astonishnt, and in the next mont, another figure appeared, landing a palm strike directly on her chest.
“Ah!”
The woman was knocked back several steps, then crashed into the railing. But her montum didn’t stop; after hitting the bars, she lost control and flipped backward…
Thud!
With a muffled sound, the woman crashed heavily onto the stairs below. Her eyes widened, her chest heaving violently as she stared up in disbelief… But soon, a torrent of blood gushed from her head…
Ye Lian and Xia Na glanced down, then looked at each other.
“What about that Zombie?” Ling Mo asked.
Ye Lian opened her hand, revealing a huge Zombie mother hive, while Xia Na said, “It’s dead. From just now, its condition started deteriorating rapidly, and in the end, it seed to lose all reason. Ye Lian and I seized the chance and finished it off together. Strangely, it turned out to be a Progenitor…”
“I guess… that must have been its body. But with evolution, so organ inside it split off and beca its main body… That explains how it could parasitize a human.” Ling Mo listened to the Progenitor Zombie’s increasingly faint screams and spoke.
A few minutes later, the master ball returned to Ling Mo, carrying the Progenitor Zombie’s corpse.
With a slap, the corpse was thrown to the ground. Ling Mo squatted down and poked at it, nodding thoughtfully. “Looks like I was right. This thing and the master ball are the sa kind of product. Only, it evolved into this on its own, while the master ball was an accident.”
“Can’t really call it an accident. The master ball only beca like this after Devouring psychic power… As for this Progenitor, I think it managed it by transferring psychic power. So it doesn’t have that direct Devour ability, but its advantage is that, if it wants, it can probably hide inside any Creature without being discovered.” Xia Na stared curiously at the corpse, analyzing.
“Now that it’s grown like this, I doubt there’ll ever be a second mother hive… But…” Ling Mo looked up at the master ball, which now floated in the air like a giant, glowing red balloon…
Ye Lian suddenly said, “It looks… stuffed…”
“Puff!”
At this mont, the master ball suddenly let out a soft sound and squeezed out a few psychic light points from its underside… But soon, it absorbed them back in…
“Why do I feel… like it’s turned into a foodie?” Ling Mo couldn’t help but say.
The two won didn’t reply, just silently exchanged glances…
For the next ten minutes, Ling Mo kept Devouring these psychic powers.
First, the depletion of the main body was replenished, and then the psychic puppet Xiao Hei was once again condensed.
Not only did it return to its previous form, but its body continued to be gradually filled in, becoming more complete bit by bit.
First were those semi-transparent areas, then the Fla in its eyes and heart. The Fla burned brighter and brighter, eventually even revealing a hint of ghostly blue at the center. Especially the heart… Although this part didn’t take shape all at once as Ling Mo had hoped, it still beca much fuller…
“If I can Absorb this much psychic power again, then the heart might fully appear. The only thing is, I don’t know about the switch…”
“Hey.”
As a voice suddenly appeared, Ling Mo, who was imrsed in excitent, instantly felt his scalp tingle: “Hey my ass!”
“Tsk tsk, is that how you talk to yourself?” “Subconscious” said.
“These two concepts may have subtle differences, but neither is a good thing!” Ling Mo let out a frustrated sigh.
“Don’t worry, a lot of people can’t face the self deep inside their hearts, so your reaction is completely normal…”
“The switch still hasn’t evolved…”
“Oh, speaking of which, I happen to have sothing very important to say… Uh… Don’t find it strange, okay? I’m your Subconscious. When you’re thinking about the switch, it ans I’m thinking about it too.” The Subconscious continued.
Ling Mo was stunned, then gradually cald down… Indeed, even the appearance of Xiao Hei itself was the result of his Subconscious’s choice. Although talking to his Subconscious felt really weird, in a way, it was also a sign of his powerful psychic power… Looking on the bright side, this was actually a kind of self-verification… But from a less positive perspective…
“Why does this kind of power make feel a bit schizophrenic…” Ling Mo thought, and couldn’t help but shiver. He asked irritably, “Fine, what do you want to say?”
“Of course it’s the opinion of your Subconscious! Speaking of this switch… Do you know it’s also up to you to decide whether to evolve it? Hmm… To go a bit deeper, it’s up to …” “Subconscious” said unhurriedly.
Ling Mo imdiately recalled that sotis, when he was thinking about sothing, he would indeed use this kind of speaking pace, but that was just to match the speed of his thoughts… Only now, hearing it himself, did he realize how annoying this tone was!
“If you have sothing to say, just say it!” Ling Mo said angrily. At this point, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, “Wait, don’t tell … you’ve decided not to have a switch?”
“No, I’m not going to be completely contrary to your thoughts, okay? I just want to ask you… what kind of design do you want for the switch?” As the Subconscious spoke, several different types of switches appeared in Ling Mo’s mind: circuit breaker style, door lock style, iron window style, and even sword-drawing style…
“No matter which one you choose, it’ll appear on Xiao Hei… Considering how cool Xiao Hei is, I strongly recomnd the last one… I think, you wouldn’t refuse your own Subconscious?”
But before the Subconscious finished speaking, Ling Mo had already reached out and grabbed at the void. In the next mont, a Pistol appeared in his hand… The muzzle pointed directly at Xiao Hei’s brow, and as a wisp of green smoke rose, the Fla in Xiao Hei’s eyes imdiately dimd, and the Subconscious’s voice disappeared from his mind.
Ling Mo let out a long breath, glanced at the gun in his hand, and stuffed it directly into Xiao Hei’s belly. As soon as the gun touched Xiao Hei, it instantly disappeared… But Ling Mo knew, as long as he reached out for it, the gun would appear again.
“Hmm? Ling-Ge, what are you doing?” Xia Na leaned over, asking curiously.
“Nothing… I just feel a lot better!” Ling Mo grinned, patted his clothes lightly, and said.
After Ling Mo and the other two, together with Li Yalin and Xu Shuhan, withdrew from the Dormitory Building, Black Silk and Yu Shiran, who had already prepared, sealed off the Dormitory Building… As the main door slamd shut, those Spiders and corpses were also sealed inside…
“Captain, do you think there are other Zombies lurking near the human gathering places? Even though that big Spider doesn’t really count as human…” Mu Chen looked tiredly at the Dormitory Building and asked.
“Who knows…” Ling Mo answered softly.
