Chapter 1122: Take This!
“Whew… that was close!” Xiao Hei-or rather, Ling Mo-let out a sigh of relief as soon as he stopped. If he hadn’t reacted quickly enough just now, he would have been attacked by his own teammate.
“Really unexpected, that you’d actually play such sneaky little tricks. Did you really think… I wasn’t on guard against you? Actually, I’ve been waiting for you to jump out on your own. Although you didn’t keep me waiting long, it’s a bit disappointing that I didn’t get to strike you head-on…” the woman replied.
“So, by that logic, you’re not exactly aboveboard yourself…” Ling Mo said. “But there are two things I’m quite curious about. First, it’s obvious you’re not a mental ability superhuman, so how did you see me? Second… according to you, you were just saved by that Zombie, going from feed to feeder… So how did someone like you manage to control these Spiders? I think you’re still hiding a lot from us, aren’t you? Is it something you find hard to talk about? If that’s the case, I can understand… But if none of these questions get answered, how can we trust that you have enough ability to keep your promises?”
“Shut up! Who did you just call a feeder?” The woman immediately caught on to the word and retorted excitedly, “I’m just trying to survive, that’s all! At least… while I was managing them, they didn’t suffer more torment, that’s already all I could do! You’re clearly hinting that I traded them for power! But too bad, you guessed completely wrong. I’m still just an ordinary person, but in my head… no. Who needs your trust!”
After yelling, she suddenly calmed down. Then, even angrier, she snapped, “I think you’ve got it all wrong… Listen up. If you don’t do as I say, then just wait and see how this man gets eaten alive right in front of you!”
“…Why did you have to provoke her…” Xu Shuhan whispered from behind.
The two “Flames” in Xiao Hei’s eyes flickered strangely as he replied, “Hehe… well, based on her series of reactions, I guessed her emotions might easily spiral out of control if provoked. I just tested that guess a bit, and got a very important piece of Intelligence… She’s an ordinary person, her ability doesn’t belong to her, and the answer to it all is hidden in her head…”
Xu Shuhan was startled at first, then showed a look of sudden realization, but then she asked doubtfully, “But how are you going to find that answer? She has a hostage in her hands right now…”
“Then why do you think I tried to ambush her just now?” Ling Mo replied calmly. “It’s simple-just to make her realize that as long as I stay here, I’m a threat to her plan. Gu Shuangshuang can’t beat me, and I might find a chance to take her down in one go and rescue Skinny Monkey at lightning speed… That way, she’ll have to take new action…”
“What action? Force you to disappear on your own?”
“She wouldn’t feel safe that way. If I disappear, I might go help the main body… Do you think a woman like her would easily pin her hopes on others? The more she trusts that Zombie, the less trust she has for anyone else…”
“I don’t know… Then what do you think she’ll do…”
Xu Shuhan was about to keep asking when the woman said, “You, come with me.” She was pointing right at Xiao Hei…
“You’re the boss, whatever you say.” Ling Mo replied flippantly.
“…Seems like you trust your companions a lot…” the woman sneered. “But if I were you, I’d be more worried about my own life. Even if this isn’t your main body, if it’s destroyed, your main body won’t feel too good either, right?”
“Heh… what a coincidence, I was thinking the same thing.” Ling Mo said meaningfully.
The woman stared at him coldly for a couple of seconds, finally suppressing the urge to retort. With a cold snort, she walked straight through the crowd and headed for the door. Although everyone glared at her angrily, no one tried to stop her. For her to act so brazenly, she must have something to rely on. In this situation, it’s best not to take risks…
“Kind reminder, you have one minute and thirty seconds left. If you plan to just wait here, that’s a bit too boring. Do something, at least struggle a little.” The woman said mockingly at the door, then finally walked out.
Xiao Hei, with a flicker, instantly vanished from where he stood…
“Bah!” Ye Kai spat toward the door, then muttered, “It’s all the captain’s fault for pissing her off…”
“Good if she gets mad! That’s why they say pitiful people always have something hateful about them…” Mu Chen said.
Zhang Xincheng looked at them speechlessly and asked, “What should we do now?”
As soon as he asked, everyone looked at Gu Shuangshuang, who was watching them with a fearful yet hateful gaze, as if ready to fight them to the death if they took one step forward. As for Skinny Monkey, who was hanging inside the room, he was still unconscious. But those big Spiders had already gotten within half a meter of him… Judging by their crawling speed, in about a minute, they’d reach Skinny Monkey, and according to what that woman said, it would take them less than thirty seconds to eat a person…
At that thought, everyone couldn’t help but feel a chill…
But just then, a figure suddenly stepped out from the crowd…
Li Yalin calmly cracked her knuckles, then turned back and gave everyone a charming smile: “No need to worry… I didn’t come to your side just to balance the power. That human woman… I mean that woman, she thought keeping a close eye on Ling-Ge would solve everything, but she’s wrong.” ṚάΝọβƐṩ
“…Why is she suddenly making these comments…”
“No idea… I think she was influenced by those two arguing just now…”
It was rare for Li Yalin to say so much to them, so everyone felt a bit flattered… But before they could react, they suddenly heard Li Yalin call out: “Aha! Take this!”
“Hey! This is more than just being influenced!”
“This is definitely some weird instigation!”
While everyone was shocked, they didn’t notice that Yuwen Xuan quietly took a step back in the crowd…
But besides making everyone gape, Li Yalin’s shout also made Gu Shuangshuang visibly freeze… Who knows what she saw, but in the next second, the girl suddenly screamed, “Don’t come any closer!”
