My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 710 – A Zombie World, Incomprehensible to Humans…

The “red stuff” Bighead mentioned was precisely the hive of “Wig.”

As the Flame gradually weakened, a red viral hive began to emerge from the charred black mass that emitted a burnt smell.

Although it was scorched, the hive remained completely unaffected.

Mutation creatures like “Wig” and Black Silk had actually transcended the category of mutation beasts. Their hives were also significantly different from those of ordinary mutation beasts.

With just a glance, Ling Mo was able to identify two distinct differences.

Firstly, the size was very small, and secondly, the color.

Ling Mo had never seen a hive that was so intensely red, almost to the point of turning black.

Moreover, the hive seemed to be more like a lesion, but now it was twitching slightly as if it were still alive.

This alone was enough to determine that it contained a terrifying amount of virus!

How much virus gel could this thing be worth…

He had risked his life to take down “Wig,” and now Bighead appeared out of nowhere to rob him…

Robbing him was one thing, but Bighead went further by ordering Ling Mo to obediently hand over the hive with both hands!

Evil Zombie!

Furiously, Ling Mo mentally branded it as such.

He didn’t rush to act; the more time he dragged, the more he could recover…

“Ha, scared silly?” Bighead even knew how to mock. “I can Sensing the aura of those Zombies. I can kill you before they get here.”

This evil zombie could even threaten!

“In your human terms, I can crush you to death anytime I want now.” Bighead was addicted to taunting. It seemed to genuinely enjoy this cat-and-rat game.

Damn it, I’m the rat now… Ling Mo fumed inwardly.

From Bighead’s articulate way of speaking, at the very least, it was clear that in terms of Intelligence, it had already surpassed all the Zombies Ling Mo had encountered so far.

“This mutant creature hive is suitable for Li Yalin, and this Bighead’s… is definitely suitable for Xia Na,” Ling Mo couldn’t help but think.

Bighead’s Intelligence had at least reached the standard of an adult human.

However, Intelligence and quick thinking are two different things. But as it stood, this evil Zombie’s thinking was still quite agile.

“Hurry up, or I’ll eat you. Humans are very afraid of becoming prey to other Creatures, right? I found some information in my memory that says if humans are eaten alive, they experience intense fear during the process.”

Bighead shook his head and said, “That’s why humans become prey…”

“Great logic…” Ling Mo couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

After all, it’s still a Zombie. Its understanding of some basic issues was entirely on a different channel compared to humans.

“But actually, I appreciate some of humans’ actions. You see, my Mate didn’t know how to learn these things, so you killed it… Well, actually, you half-killed it. I finished it off and gained evolution from it… But I’ll still blame its death on you.”

Bighead talked a lot, and… was very domineering!

Ling Mo felt frustrated. So, Bighead had already intercepted once.

But to think it would kill its own Mate – this once again refreshed Ling Mo’s understanding of Zombies.

Ordinary Zombies would never do this… but clearly, this one was no ordinary Zombie!

It had Devoured the Bird Zombie’s mother hive. Now the value of the mother hive in its body was rising…

“Want to eat me… you’re welcome to try.”

This Zombie’s Intelligence indeed surpassed most of its kind, but Ling Mo was still human…

He slowly moved toward the mother hive, casting occasional glances at the door of the Restroom.

“Hahaha…” Seeing the human obediently listening, Bighead appeared exceedingly proud.

Judging by its experience, it hadn’t interacted much with humans. Although the human in front of it smelled delicious, it was more interested in some questions about Ling Mo than in eating him.

The Flame had completely extinguished by now. Ling Mo bent down to pick up the mother hive, then slowly turned around, subtly blocking the door.

Ling Mo speculated that this Zombie likely had significant psychic power as well. To avoid giving anything away, he intentionally showed a look of surprise when he turned around.

A psychic light cluster fluctuated briefly, and a psychic command was sent out.

At the same time, the doorknob on that Restroom door began to turn slowly.

However, the surprise he initially feigned became genuine when he got a clear look at Bighead.

After hearing Bighead’s series of arrogant remarks, combined with its cold voice, Ling Mo expected to see a ferocious-looking Zombie…

But when he turned his head… what was up with this huge Bald Man?

And those tiny eyes like mung beans, though clearly a dark reddish-purple, weren’t scary at all. They actually seemed quite funny!

The eyes were already small enough, so why squint them even more…

And that tiny mouth-could it really bite anyone? Did it need a Straw to work?

What was with those stick-thin arms and legs? Did all its nourishment go straight to its head?

For a moment, Ling Mo really felt like he was struck by a bolt from the blue. If this was a contest of ugliness, this one was surely the ugliest he’d ever seen!

Especially that big Bald Man head-it’s incredibly distracting!

Bighead glanced at Ling Mo with some confusion, then seemed to understand.

It chuckled and shook its head while sitting on the windowsill: “Weak human… it’s strange how you manage to keep those Zombies from killing you.”

“Do you think I look impressive? I found this look in my memories; it seems many people liked to make themselves look like this…” Bighead’s speech was quite scattered, and combined with the Zombie’s peculiar thought patterns, Ling Mo couldn’t fathom what it was thinking.

Ordinary Zombies had just one thought when they saw him: Eat.

Although Bighead’s eyes also emitted a Red Glimmer while looking at him, it seemed to have other intentions as well.

Bighead stopped talking halfway through and closed its mouth.

Ling Mo waited for two seconds, puzzled why it had stopped speaking, only to see that it was looking at him pitifully.

What did that mean? Ling Mo was momentarily stunned, and then his eyelids twitched.

Was this guy waiting for him to respond?

Damn, it must’ve melted its brain during its evolution…

However, this was actually a good way to buy time. Holding the mother hive, Ling Mo thought seriously for a moment and then said, “Is it some kind of cosmetic body modification?”

He really struggled to come up with that…

Some people inject saline into their heads to form big lumps. This Zombie went ahead and evolved itself like that, so it seems it’s quite trendy…

“No!” Bighead squinted its tiny eyes and replied angrily.

Ling Mo stared at its enormous Bald Man head… Could it be cosplaying a celebrity?

A Zombie fanboy?

But he hadn’t heard of many people shaving their heads…

“It’s a bobblehead,” Bighead said proudly.

Ling Mo almost facepalmed. How long ago was that popular…?

“Well… you know, humans usually do that for a joke, right?” Ling Mo said.

“What’s a joke?” Bighead rolled his eyes as he tried to recall, clearly unaware that he had turned his own body into a joke…

Of course, Ling Mo wouldn’t offer an explanation. The longer this dragged on, the better…

But Bighead’s seemingly insignificant comments actually challenged one of Ling Mo’s long-held beliefs.

He had always thought that the evolution and mutation of Zombies and mutation beasts were mostly determined by the Virus itself, based on their condition and the external environment…

But listening to Bighead, it sounded like they could influence it themselves?!

During Ye Lian’s evolution, Ling Mo’s biggest concern was whether she’d develop some bizarre mutation. If such a mutation became noticeable, they could no longer blend in with humans.

Identity exposure and Superpower leaks would be extremely dangerous for Ling Mo and his female Zombies.

Even Xu Shuhan, now aware of Ye Lian’s Zombie nature and who had voluntarily chosen to keep it a secret, might not remain so calm if she knew they were under Ling Mo’s Control.

So keeping Ye Lian’s identity hidden remained a crucial aim for Ling Mo.

Evolution and mutation were vital parts of this!

And this was an aspect that Ling Mo had always felt powerless to control…
