My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 1094: The Armless Legion

Buzz buzz buzz-

Amidst the roaring noise, a helicopter flew over the rooftop of Rosen Company… The equipment and corpses that Ling Mo and others had seized were finally about to be taken back to Miracle Base after days of waiting…

As the cabin door opened, several figures holding submachine guns immediately poked their heads out. Among them, a woman in a tight leather suit carrying a machine gun was Lucy, the actual leader of the F Team… And the burly man with a scruffy beard beside her was Tom, a military instructor from Miracle Base.

At this moment, both of them, along with the others, were cautiously peering down from the cabin door… The nearby buildings still bore the marks of intense battles. The streets were littered with debris and splattered blood. Yet, amidst this cacophony, not a single figure appeared…

“This is really… strange…” After observing for a few seconds, someone muttered in a muffled voice.

Accustomed to scenes filled with zombies, suddenly witnessing such a sight didn’t bring a sense of safety; instead, it exuded an eerie and sinister vibe… Especially when their gaze shifted to the rooftop and saw the words “Be Careful” painted on the ground, it sent a shiver down their spine. “I don’t know… Anyway, let’s hurry. Once we take the stuff, let’s get out of here quickly,” Lucy said softly, staring at the words for a while.

“Too bad Ling Mo isn’t here now…” Tom said, frowning.

“I’m not here to see him, I’m…” Lucy raised her head sensitively, explaining.

“Hmm?” Tom clearly didn’t understand. He was still lost in his own thoughts.

“…Nothing.” Realizing she misunderstood Tom’s meaning, Lucy showed a hint of embarrassment, then turned her face away.

“What I mean is, if he were here, we could ask him properly.” As he jumped off the helicopter, Tom frowned and glanced around, finally walking towards the two corpses, “Feels like the world is about to change again…”

Lucy also stared at the rooftop for a while, murmuring and nodding, “Yeah…”

…At the distant alley entrance, a figure shrouded in black fog stood silently, its blood-red eyes fixed unblinkingly on the rooftop. After watching the helicopter for a while, it suddenly curled its lips into a grin, emitting a hoarse and low sound… Then, from the mouth of this Hellforged Monster came a cold laugh and a string of human words…

“Those are… the humans with that other human, right? Hehehehehe… Humans, I told you, you can’t escape…”

It laughed as it slowly retreated into the shadows, then vanished silently at the alley entrance…

…

At this moment, in a wilderness not too far from Dawn Town, a helicopter was also slowly descending here.

Though called a wilderness, there were actually quite a few farmhouses nearby, but after being abandoned, only human-height wild grass remained. Compared to these wild grasses, the low warehouses surrounded by them seemed less conspicuous.

“This is the granary, right?” Yuwen Xuan stepped out first, holding a map.

“Be careful, there might be spiders hiding here,” Ye Kai said as he jumped down.

“Damn, we were good brothers until you mentioned spiders! I keep feeling like there are spiders crawling on me, and you guys keep talking about them, can’t you let me live peacefully?” Mu Chen twisted his body in disgust, uneasily scratching his head.

“If you’re scared, go scout ahead…”

“Is that how you talk to your instructor?”

“Spider, oh spider…”

“Fine, I’ll go!”

…

“Whimper whimper…”

Accompanied by a rustling sound, a figure slowly emerged from the wild grass. Through the gaps in the grass, the figure opened its mouth, rolling its throat, while staring intently at those jumping out of the helicopter… ꞦàΝò𝔟Èȿ

In his blood-red vision, everyone seemed to be in some sort of thermal sensing state, their figures constantly flickering and shimmering. Yet, similarly, every movement they made appeared in slow motion, clearly etched into his eyes. At the same time, a peculiar scent wafted into his nostrils with their movements…

“Whimper…”

The figure’s body twisted strangely, then took two deep breaths. However, at that moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind his head: “Hey, Big Guy, look here.”

He reflexively turned his head, only to find not a humanoid creature, but a giant panda head.

“MeGu!” Xiao Bai softly howled, following with a swift slap.

The figure didn’t even have time to dodge before feeling a sudden “buzz” in his head, and then he widened his eyes and collapsed to the ground.

And at this moment, two other figures finally appeared in his line of sight… The two little girls were holding hands, one tall and one short, staring at him…

“I think…” Black Silk stared at the figure for a couple of seconds, then suddenly turned to Yu Shiran, “He must have thought it was Xiao Bai talking to him just now, right?”

Yu Shiran had also been watching the figure, then silently nodded…

The two of them were silent for a while, then spoke in unison: “Forget it, drag him out!”

…Two seconds later, a circle of people had gathered around the corpse. The humans who had been watched by him just now were all staring at him thoughtfully…

Ling Mo pinched his chin and observed for a while, then shifted his gaze from his red eyes to his body…

“What do you guys think… where did his arms go?” Ling Mo asked.

The others frowned as well. There were quite a few zombies that had ended up like this, but this one, no matter how you looked at it, didn’t seem to be the dangerous kind…

This zombie, he had no arms…

But aside from that, he hadn’t evolved any special features.

For example, an unusually long neck, or legs with extraordinary jumping ability…

With such physical defects, and nothing else to make up for them, it was truly unbelievable that this zombie could survive until now…

After their near miss with an ambush, when this group saw the corpse, this was the first thing they noticed.

To them, no matter how terrifying zombies were, nothing was worse than the abnormal. Because when you encounter something like this, it means you might die without even knowing how…

Before the group could discuss it further, more faint noises suddenly came from the surroundings.

At the same time, a weak cry that sounded like “MeGu” came out from the grass…

Xia Na stood at the Cabin door, glanced left and right, then said, “Actually, this question should be rephrased… We should be asking: Where did all their arms go?”

“Woo!”

As soon as she finished speaking, a zombie stumbled out of the grass, neck crooked, drooling from the mouth, but likewise, his twisted body also had no arms… In this state, his movements looked thoroughly uncoordinated. Although he wasn’t much slower than a common zombie, his body kept twisting from side to side.

More armless zombies crawled out from the grass one after another, staring hungrily at Ling Mo and his group, letting out uncontrollable cries…

“There are actually so many… And why do none of them have arms?”

Ye Kai and the others instinctively stood back to back, pointing their gun barrels at the zombies.

The pilot, who was just about to climb out of the helicopter, immediately shrank back upon seeing this scene.

“Ah!”

As a Female Zombie suddenly charged out, the muzzles flashed with fire.

Ling Mo casually beckoned and released Xiao Hei. But to avoid making the scene too bizarre, he didn’t use his Puppet Control Ability, only used his Tentacle to attack these zombies. In the past, he released his Tentacle alone, but now with Xiao Hei synchronizing with him, their efficiency immediately shot up.

Meanwhile, those Female Zombies seemed utterly relaxed, wandering around as they easily knocked the biting zombies to the ground.

“Ling-Ge, look at this.”

Xia Na flicked her Scythe, and a corpse flew to Ling Mo’s feet.

He looked down and couldn’t help but let out a surprised “Eh?”

The upper body of this corpse was almost completely exposed, and at the shoulder, there was a clearly neat cut. Besides that, there was a terrifying bite mark on the shoulder, where a chunk of flesh had been bitten off, even the bone crushed, making the entire shoulder slump downward in a grotesque way.

“These zombies don’t look like natural mutations, but rather were deliberately cultivated by someone. Like this one, his mutation time couldn’t be more than a month. That wound should be from when he was bitten by a zombie while mutating. If the zombie that bit him didn’t have arms either, then this result is quite normal.” Xia Na explained as Ling Mo observed.

The others also heard this clearly, and as more corpses piled up, they gradually realized that all these corpses shared much the same features…

“So, the zombies and humans in Dawn Town haven’t all died out?” Ling Mo immediately understood. If these zombies didn’t come from the surrounding area, then their only source could be the deserted Dawn Town…
