Chapter 533: Humanity, So Terrifying

The fragments of light and shadow continued to play.

However, many of the subsequent scenes were mangled beyond recognition by Zero. After carefully examining these incomplete fragments, Ling Mo made a summary of the information.

Niepanthis was the name of the organization.

From what Jian Qi had gathered, this was a colossal organization that essentially covered not just City X and F city but also the surrounding three provinces.

These three provinces were the most developed in industry and commerce and had the densest population in the southwestern region.

Before the Disaster Outbreak, doing business across these three provinces wouldnt make jaws drop, but after the outbreak, for an organization that could extend its reach into all three provinces, Ling Mo could only sincerely exclaim: Impressive!

Niepans method of expanding its influence was not complicated. Their people were active within the three provinces in various areas. The kind Jian Qi encountered were known as hunting teams, responsible for hunting representative zombies and Mutated Beasts, and even collecting plant specimens. Then there were those tasked with gathering special materials, like pharmaceuticals. Another type was in charge of collecting intelligence, the most mysterious of all, which Jian Qi had only heard about but had yet to encounter.

When these people were active, if they came across a Psychic with suitable abilities or a survivor with certain potential, they would recruit them as the lowest level of membership.

Jian Qi was such a case. Within the entire Niepan, he was merely a lowly Level nine member.

Regardless of the membership level, there was only one way to climb up points!

Whether it was gathering materials, recruiting new members, or providing new intelligence in a nutshell, any contribution deemed useful to Niepan could earn points.

Once the points reached a certain threshold, one could be promoted, and with higher levels came access to more resources and connections.

Jian Qi only knew about the benefits of being promoted from Level nine to Level eight.

While he was still Level nine, he could glean some intelligence from Niepan and receive some support For example, when he joined the F group along with others, the senior members who threatened his status and anonymity were taken away by people dispatched by Niepan, in coordination with him. After that, the F group was essentially under his control.

New members who joined later, like Lucy, had no clue about Jian Qis true identity, and they were completely unaware of the danger they were in.

Jian Qi was cautious and careful, and he wore a good mask. If he hadnt fallen into Ling Mos hands this time, its likely he would have already completed his mission.

However, his situation in Niepan was just the lowest level of treatment.

Once he climbed to Level eight, he would become the supervisor of several Level nine members and gain priority access to more intelligence.

But Jian Qi was not content with climbing up the ranks step by step, so he took a more extreme approach.

He joined Niepans research on the Origin of the virus and turned all the Psychics gathered by the fire into his experimental subjects

For now, that was all the information Ling Mo had gathered.

Although I dont have a direct understanding of the Origin of the virus, its impossible for Niepan to research such a proposition with so many connections and achieve nothing.

For example, the reason Jian Qi could develop this Potion is also because he received some support from Niepan.

But all those detailed pieces of intelligence have been freaking devoured by Zero.

Its unexpectedly targeted, the way that mass of light and shadow gobbled it up. Ling Mo felt an urge to crush it on the spot whenever he thought about it.

Since this intelligence was pieced together from intermittent fragments of memory, Ling Mo could only guess about some of the details.

Take the point system Its somewhat akin to performance metrics. In peacetime, its not hard to tally, but in this paralyzed era, to calculate the points of scattered Niepan members across three provinces anyone would think it impossible.

But Niepan has Zero!

If Zero can leave a betrayal-prevention device in Jian Qis brain, naturally, it could do the same in the minds of other members.

And the purpose of this device isnt just to prevent betrayal; its also used to stay in contact with the members.

The point tallying, I guess, is also collected by Zero.

What truly shocked Ling Mo was, considering the capabilities of a typical mental ability user ten people together probably couldnt accomplish such a monumental task!

If it were me

Ling Mo compared his total mental power to that of Zero and then despondently realized that if he possessed Zeros psychic ability, at most he could handle 500 people at the same time, and thats without receiving too much feedback simultaneously. Moreover, with that level of energy consumption, he could maintain it for at most a week before his brain would crash

After the frustration passed, Ling Mo couldnt help but reveal a longing smile: That said, Zero sounds quite interesting If I absorbed Zeros power

At that thought, Ling Mos heart began to race!

If he absorbed Zero, the strength of his mental power could reach an unimaginable level!

Forget about controlling twenty zombies at the same time, even controlling hundreds simultaneously wouldnt be a problem!

The prerequisite, however, is that Ling Mo could send out that many mental commands simultaneously without collapsing

But regardless, super-strong mental energy means powerful endurance, which also means Ling Mo could last much longer in battle!

Just thinking about it was exhilarating!

Wait a minute, slow down

Ling Mo gradually calmed down. Not to mention he still had no way to find Zero, and even if he could, could he take Zero down? Even if he managed that, with his current capacity to withstand it, where would all that mental energy go? Except for his head exploding, there probably wasnt a second option

I got carried away there. At times like this, I should focus on whats right in front of me

Ling Mo opened his eyes, which he had just closed, and looked towards Jian Qi: What should be done with this guy?

Strictly speaking, Jian Qi wasnt dead he had just become an utterly empty shell.

Lucy looked at Jian Qi with a complex expression and asked, Can I take care of him? I need to let everyone know about this.

Sure. With someone to help tie up loose ends, Ling Mo couldnt have asked for more. Taking out Jian Qi here meant dealing with the body, which was troublesome to say the least.

Thank you, Lucy said.

Uh youre welcome. Ling Mo felt a bit strange. The guy was still at their feet, after all, and her thanks just seemed odd.

If it werent for what you told me, maybe we Maybe Jian Qi was right, Im too naive. Lucy sounded somewhat melancholic. Unlike Ling Mo, she didnt gain much intelligence from this ordeal. For her, it was just an operation to clean house, an experience that was hardly refreshing, even somewhat saddening.

However, Ling Mos help had saved the lives of everyone in the f-group. Thinking of this, Lucy was still very grateful and moved.

Cough, cough

If you want to laugh, just laugh. I know Im naive, Lucy said with a hint of resentment.

I didnt mean that, Ling Mo said.

But you laughed before You dont have to comfort me. I know, you think Im naive too, Lucy didnt believe him.

Ling Mo was at his wits end. Why were human girls so difficult to deal with!

But as soon as this thought appeared, he quickly shook his head vigorously.

That wasnt right! He was a human himself, after all. He couldnt just back down now!

Well Ling Mo thought for a moment, then suddenly reached out and patted Lucys shoulder, saying sincerely, You can still try harder, keep it up!

Lucy was taken aback at first, then stuttered for a moment before she couldnt help but lift her foot and stomp hard on Ling Mos foot.

Ouch!

You jerk! After cursing through clenched teeth, Lucy took a few steps, then remembered she had forgotten Jian Qis empty husk and stomped back, teeth gnashed.

She glared at Ling Mo, who was now holding his foot, and stomped on his other foot, then snorted heavily: Hmph!

Only then did the violent woman drag Jian Qi and slowly start walking to the other end of the corridor.

Ah!!! What did I say wrong! Wasnt it you who forced me to admit you were naive! I admitted it, and I even encouraged you! How could you stomp on me!

Ling Mo hopped in place, grimacing in pain, then clung to Ye Lian: Girl, youre so much better. Humans are too scary Ow! Dont bite!

However, no one noticed that at the other end of the corridor, around the corner, someone was leaning against the wall.

Upon hearing Ling Mos scream, this person couldnt help but smile slightly, then let go of their crossed arms and disappeared into the corridor f(r)eewebn(o)vel.com

Girl, let me tell you, you want to regain your humanity, right? Ling Mo was still holding Ye Lian. Although this girl couldnt resist biting when she saw his exposed neck, he still felt warmth in his heart.

Ye Lian nodded and exchanged glances with Shana, who was behind Ling Mo The long-haired girl was gesturing at Ling Mos neck with her hand, then she brought two fingers together

Im warning you, dummy. Play that Thousand Year Kill game again and were through Ling Mo said, predicting the future, Girl, are you serious about your idea?

Ugh Shana reluctantly lowered her hand, then turned to gaze at Li Ya Lins poised figure, stealthily reaching out

Ye Lian nodded again, Mmm yes. Because when you see me its always always like youre reminiscing

Reminiscing?

Ling Mo paused, then it dawned on him.

Indeed, he had too many memories with Ye Lian. Sometimes, looking at Ye Lian made him think of many things from the past.

It wasnt just that he was deeply attached to their shared history; in this chaotic world, he couldnt help but recall those simple yet peaceful days.

After a moment of thought, Ling Mo held Ye Lian tightly and whispered, Im sorry

Theres no need Ye Lian shook her head, Humans say Im sorry when they have treated someone badly but Ling Ge, youve been so good to me I also want to reminisce with you I want to feel what you feel like Nana does

Girl
