My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Attempting a psychic devour on the Big Boss of Niepan amid the chaos was no small feat.

As soon as Ling Mo succeeded, he retreated into the crowded area to avoid attracting attention.

The Zombies suddenly went on a rampage, but the number of Members they held back was limited. Most of the guards had quickly retreated to the school bus, with some even having reached the doorway, loudly inquiring about the situation inside. A few frightened senior management members had just looked up and immediately noticed the Big Boss acting strangely.

Attacked by Ling Mo’s psychic tentacle, the Big Boss’s face instantly turned red. Not only that, he was wide-eyed and open-mouthed, his hands shaking as if in spasms. This reaction indicated a problem with his psychic light cluster, causing a decrease in his control over his body. The impaired movement was a mild symptom; if Ling Mo continued the devour, it wouldn’t take long before the Big Boss collapsed in seizures.

The Experimental Group’s Team Leader was the first to rush over, shielding the Big Boss and shouting, “Get someone here!”

The guards blocking the entrance, unaware of what was happening inside, hastily dispatched someone in response to the call.

The Big Boss, however, managed to shake his head slightly, though it was unclear what he meant.

The senior management members exchanged uneasy glances, their faces grim.

Though they were not superhumans, they could tell that someone had made a move.

Clearly, those windows had been shattered using powers; otherwise, such windows wouldn’t break so cleanly unless struck at the corners with a safety hammer.

Who could have done this?

The Big Boss had confidently intended to catch the perpetrator like a Rat, but instead, he had become the target.

For a moment, all the senior management felt chills run down their spines…

Whoever did this was no ordinary person!

To act decisively in such a scenario, breaking into a heavily guarded command center in front of everyone and taking down the headquarters’ top figure, displayed a shocking level of daring and ruthlessness!

At this moment, Niepan headquarters’ face was being slapped “pa-pa” loudly.

While they had just been considering restoring their reputation, in the blink of an eye, several shoe prints had appeared on their faces.

The senior management remained silently in agreement, coming to a consensus without a word.

This matter had to be covered up!

However, the Experimental Group’s Team Leader turned and shouted, “Get everyone to retreat to one place!”

“But the Zombies…” a guard instinctively questioned.

“Get the people to retreat together first and lure the Zombies inside!” the Team Leader yelled.

With that command, the guard felt a chill down his spine.

Inside? There were still a lot of people inside…

Even their captain of the guard team was still in there, wasn’t he?

“We might not be able to lure them inside; there are too many people outside,” he replied, steeling himself for the response.

“Two minutes is enough! Don’t you know how to shut the door?” one of the senior management members snapped.

“Shut the door…” the guard repeated in bewilderment, but a glance at the Team Leader’s cold eyes made him shudder.

The glass was shattered, but it didn’t seem like there was any major incident inside…

Why were these senior management members suddenly acting so crazed…

Shutting the door now would certainly cause a lot of dissatisfaction, but with the attacker hidden among the crowd, they had to come up with a way to identify them.

At this point, someone recalled, “Those two people from the Dongming Branch, the trouble started when they arrived.”

“Them?” a man pondered, then bellowed angrily, “Right, that guy named Mu Chen! He must be involved!”

“It seems the Dongming Branch was a part of their inside-and-out plot, even now! We’ve been under their scheme for a long time!” the Experimental Group’s Team Leader said, turning his head to shout, “Find Team Leader Li! He was the one who received them. Have him recognize each person. We’ll drag them out; we have to find the culprit!”

As things spiraled out of control, the senior management began to regain their composure from their initial panic.

At this moment, the efficiency of a Survivor Camp in action became evident.

Amid the guards’ shouting, the previously scattered Niepan Members quickly started to regroup into a corner.

The Zombies were being lured by these people, slowly moving towards the door.

A few capable superhumans were also called out, but for safety reasons, they had to undergo an inspection by the HR Leader before approaching the school bus.

As a mid-level manager, Team Leader Li did not have the privilege of seeking refuge in the bus. However, he had hidden in the inner circle under the protection of several guards. When called, he emerged with a look of slight panic.

Ling Mo slowly retreated with the crowd, keeping a clear view of what was happening around the school bus.

He saw Team Leader Li reach the bus door and nod occasionally as if conversing with someone inside. This gave Ling Mo an uneasy feeling.

At that moment, a parked car nearby suddenly showed signs of activity. Many vehicles were parked in that area, making the car unremarkable.

Had Ling Mo not been paying attention earlier, he might not have noticed it now.

When he initially sensed an ambush, Ling Mo began scouting likely ambush locations.

The guards at the gate were the obvious sentries, but the vehicles and the green belt were also potential spots.

However, hiding in the green belt would require full-body armor.

Otherwise, emerging with weapons would result in torn clothes and possibly bloodied faces from the sharp foliage…

In such a disheveled state, forget about shouting threats; it would be more fitting to drop your weapons and beg for mercy, which might actually suit the scene better…

Only Zombies and mutation beasts could move freely among the bushes. An ordinary person trying to part the grass would end up getting shredded…

The car door opened quietly, and a few people stepped out.

One of them leaned against the door, wearing sunglasses, looking somewhat languid at first glance.

These people stood nearby, watching as Team Leader Li turned and scanned the crowd.

Ling Mo lowered his head slightly, feeling somewhat relieved.

Luckily, he had left Mu Chen behind; otherwise, given Mu Chen’s memorable impression, he would have been the first to be identified.

As for Ling Mo himself, he had worn a hat back then, leaving a less significant impression on Team Leader Li. Additionally, the dim light made it less likely that he would be recognized.

However, the response from Niepan made Ling Mo realize just how tricky the situation was.

Going up against the entire Niepan headquarters alone, the pressure he felt was immense.

But the greatest pressure came from the Big Boss.

Yet, this pressure felt rather peculiar…

Logically, forcefully using psychic devour on a human should encounter enormous resistance.

Human psychic resistance is much stronger than that of a Zombie, with more intense psychic fluctuations. Trying to perform a psychic devour while the target is in good condition, even if successful, would result in significant backlash.

If Ling Mo’s own psychic power wasn’t strong enough, the target’s instinctive rejection might be enough to incapacitate him.

However, despite the great consumption of his energy, he found the risk of devouring this particular individual to be manageable.

Yet, manageable risk was one thing, but encountering no resistance at all… That was quite unusual.

Indeed, throughout the process of devouring the Big Boss’s psyche, Ling Mo felt no resistance whatsoever!

On the contrary, his devour seemed to proceed smoothly, as if the Big Boss was actively cooperating.

But in reality, the amount of mental energy Ling Mo absorbed was minimal, and the information extracted was pitifully scant!

Ling Mo’s initial exclamation was precisely due to this discovery.

Was the problem with his devouring strength? Of course not. It was simply that the Big Boss’s mind contained very little psychic power!

This realization shocked Ling Mo. “Empty-headed” was just a metaphor! How could the head of a headquarters truly be so devoid of mental substance?

Ling Mo quickly concluded that there was something fishy about this Big Boss…

Recalling all the rumors about the Big Boss, his sense of foreboding deepened.

He suddenly realized that this seemed to be a double-layered trap!

This Big Boss was indeed extraordinarily ruthless…

As Team Leader Li approached the crowd under the protection of the guards, Ling Mo decisively retracted his psychic tentacles and gave a command to the master ball.

Since there was little to gain, there was no point in wasting further effort on the Big Boss.

The master ball slipped out through the Big Boss’s clothing and within moments, it had already escaped outside the vehicle.

With a leap, it landed in the grass and then wriggled through a gap in the Barbed Wire.

In doing so, the last trace of it vanished completely.

However, as the crowd grew tighter, how could Ling Mo escape under everyone’s watchful eyes?

Mu Chen’s expression also looked grim. They had already pressed themselves as tightly as possible against the seam of the vehicle, hoping not to be discovered.

Although it was still very dark, the light from the flames and lamps provided a dim illumination over the open area.

Hiding here, if someone decided to conduct a meticulous search, they would still be easily discovered.

“Crawl under the car; it’ll make us less visible,” Mu Chen whispered.

Lan Lan frowned as she began to crawl underneath the car, asking, “What did Ling Mo do now?”

“He must have done something reckless!” Mu Chen replied irritably.

Lan Lan huffed angrily, “I knew he was unreliable.”

Despite her words, she obediently lay under the car, waiting to see how Ling Mo would get out of this situation.

Old Lan also squeezed himself underneath, the pair leaving only their eyes visible as they peered through the car’s undercarriage toward the crowd.

Mu Chen was sweating profusely with worry. He knew Ling Mo was among the crowd and had seen Team Leader Li.

Yet he held onto a glimmer of hope, gambling that this person wouldn’t recognize Ling Mo.

At that moment, Team Leader Li suddenly shouted, “Everyone, look at the people around you. Point out anyone you don’t recognize!”

“Sht!”

Both Mu Chen and Ling Mo’s hearts skipped a beat. Mu Chen, in particular, felt a chill run down his spine and broke out in a cold sweat.

This old fox!
