My Girlfriend is a Zombie-Chapter 622: A Deeper Understanding

“Alright, I’ll keep it brief…”

The man finally succumbed under Yuwen Xuan’s gaze, defeated. Being stared down by a madman is truly not a pleasant experience.

“Our circumstances are quite different, so the evolutionary direction and characteristics of the zombies vary. However, these differences are indiscernible without specific data comparisons. After all, they are from the same species, and those subtle changes can’t be highlighted without detailed samples,” the man explained. “And we can’t just hand this over to you, can we? Since this is a partnership, both parties must show some sincerity.”

“What are your demands?” Zhang Yu asked.

“You need to provide us with more comprehensive intelligence, more detailed than what you have presented so far. To be honest, the information you’ve provided is too rough. Organ mutations, limb variations, general behavioral patterns… these are things anyone can observe with a little attention. What we want is the in-depth and meticulous kind, like a zombie version of human psychology, or human biology,” the man spoke rapidly.

“This is…” Zhang Yu showed a hint of difficulty.

Do they really think everyone is a zombie expert?

Most people only know how to avoid and kill zombies, as for zombies’ hobbies, mating preferences… who cares?

“Speaking of going deeper…” Yuwen Xuan picked up a pen and twirled it between his fingers, pondering, “I actually do have someone in mind.”

As he spoke, everyone in the conference room turned their attention to him.

There’s really such a person? What do they do?

Even the man who had posed the question was taken aback, “Really?”

“Yes!” Yuwen Xuan nodded affirmatively.

Indeed, the person he had in mind was his brother-in-law…

When it comes to understanding zombies, who could surpass Ling Mo?

“There’s one issue though… I don’t know where he is,” Yuwen Xuan frowned.

“That’s not a problem,” the man turned his head and glanced at a young girl standing behind him, “She is an expert at finding people.”

“What information can you provide me with? Name, appearance, places he might have been, a rough idea of where he might be now?”

The young girl stepped forward, tipping her cap back slightly, a pair of indifferent eyes fixed on Yuwen Xuan.

“Uh… His name is Ling Mo,” Yuwen Xuan said.

“Ha?” The girl’s expression suddenly froze on her face.

…

Unaware that he is currently the subject of someone’s attention, Ling Mo’s focus is entirely on the rampaging female giant corpse.

Her three-meter stature forces her to move on all fours, but this does not limit her mobility. She bounds through the building like a crazed gorilla.

But when this gorilla also possesses a formidable physique and terrifying speed, she becomes a destructive, transforming beast of a tank.

Shana and Ling Mo’s seamless cooperation has left the female giant corpse with over a dozen wounds. However, the toughness of her muscles and her size ensure these injuries are far from lethal.

Instead, the blood and pain only serve to further enrage her—and her mate.

Every time the female giant corpse is hurt, the male giant corpse frantically tries to break in.

Such actions put him in harm’s way, and with each attempt, he accumulates more wounds on his body.

And his injuries, in turn, incite the female giant corpse.

“It’s a vicious cycle…” Ling Mo quickly noticed.

Their destructive antics were almost tearing the house down.

The commotion had not drawn ordinary zombies, all thanks to the terrifying presence of three leader level zombies and two dominant level zombies.

Fighting alongside two of their dominant level kind had also put Ye Lian and the others into a state of excitement.

It was fortunate that they had spent so much time with Ling Mo and were restrained by his mental connection; otherwise, the scene would likely have been a hundred times bloodier.

“It’s going to be a war of attrition. The key is to prevent them from joining forces,” Ling Mo thought as he coordinated with Shana. “Their greatest strength is also their greatest weakness.”

Yet, the cooperation between this zombie couple stirred something inside Ling Mo.

Could this be… zombie nature?

While their affection was expressed through violence and bloodshed, Yu Shiran and Ban Yue seemed to have a mutual concern for each other.

But as Ling Mo’s attention wavered, a piano flew over his head.

Ling Mo’s scalp tingled with numbness, and he burst into anger: “Damn!”

Meanwhile, Mu Chen was also lost in thought, but what he was pondering was…

Where was the signal they agreed on?

He hadn’t seen Xia Zhi since a while ago, and the signal was still not forthcoming.

It wasn’t very honorable… but now was indeed the best time to escape.

Although he knew Ling Mo would not sit idly by and let them flee, and the situation where “they were held up by zombies so he could leave easily” would definitely not happen, the success rate at this moment was indeed higher than at any other time.

As for being honorable…

Deciding to pursue them, Ling Mo and his group would first have to shake off these two zombies, which, in Mu Chen’s view, was quite honorable already.

In fact, he didn’t understand Ling Mo’s actions. They were clearly planning to kill these two monsters.

Kill high-level zombies? That’s a thankless task!

Ordinary people, if not forced, wouldn’t even want to provoke ordinary zombies, let alone high-level zombies.

The risks involved were not even on the same level!

Fighting to the death with zombies without any reward was definitely folly!

While muttering to himself, Mu Chen also thought, considering he couldn’t possibly escape from Ling Mo’s hands, should he behave a bit less like a jerk?

For instance, when the signal came, he could follow the plan to hold them off, and at the same time choose a route with fewer zombies, helping Ling Mo and the others to get rid of these two monsters…

However, at that moment, Mu Chen’s body suddenly stiffened.

He felt something pressed against his waist…

“Don’t move.”

A deep voice rose from behind him, making Mu Chen’s already shocked expression turn even more bizarre.

“Xia Zhi?”

Just as Mu Chen tried to turn his head, he felt a heavy blow to his waist.

The intense pain caused him to convulse, and at the same time, the knife in his hand was snatched away.

This simple and clear action made him quickly realize that the other party was not joking.

But… what the hell was happening?!

Meanwhile, at another corner of the café, a crisp sound suddenly rang out, accompanied by Xu Shuhan’s screams.

“Ah ah ah ah…”

Mu Chen’s face turned even uglier, and before he could say anything, he felt his arm twisted behind his back, and then he was dragged rapidly towards the staircase.

“Xia Zhi, are you trying to get yourself killed?!”

Mu Chen growled, and the last thing he saw was Ling Mo being chased by the female giant corpse, frantically running towards that corner…

…

“What the hell are you doing?!”

As he was dragged downstairs, Mu Chen continued to shout.

“Ah!”

He suddenly felt a hit on his back, which made him let out an agonizing scream.

Then he was forcefully pressed against the wall, while Xia Zhi came close, shoving the barrel of a gun into his mouth.

“I hate it when you talk, just shut up. Every time I hear you speak, I just want to shoot you.”

Xia Zhi’s face remained expressionless, his tone flat and unemotional.

But the content of his words completely shocked Mu Chen.

“You…”

“Don’t worry, I’m not going to do anything,” Xia Zhi said, tugging at the corner of his mouth, “I just want to escape. But unfortunately, it’s not your kind of bad luck plan.”

“Don’t look like that, I’m just trying to survive. Or rather, to survive better.” Xia Zhi shook his head, but it was hard to tell from his expression whether he was smiling or not.

“If it weren’t for Ling Mo and his crew being too strong, and you guys too weak, I wouldn’t have to do this. Can I count on you for what’s below?”

With a fierce yank on Mu Chen’s hair, Xia Zhi delivered a heavy knee strike that made Mu Chen collapse with a wail.

“Clang!”

Xia Zhi threw the knife at the corner of the staircase on the lower floor, then quickly ran downstairs.

However, just as he was about to turn the corner, he suddenly stopped and made a gesture towards Mu Chen.

A peace sign, accompanied by an expressionless face.

Then he sprinted down and disappeared from Mu Chen’s view.

“Damn it…”

Mu Chen, curling up in pain, slowly moved towards the staircase.
