My Girlfriend is a Zombie - Chapter 480 - The Enemy is Too Cruel

A few minutes ago, on a street a kilometer away from the place where the helicopter exploded—
“BOOM!”
Suddenly, a loud explosion alarmed Li Hao and two others, who were searching in a building.
When they ran out of the building, thick black smoke had risen up from the direction of the explosion.
“What’s going on?” Li Hao frowned immediately, “What happened to the helicopter? I just heard it…”
He looked towards the sky but saw other than the harsh sunlight.
There weren’t any birds, let alone a giant helicopter.
A very bad premonition suddenly came to his mind, causing Li Hao’s expression to instantly become extremely dark, “Quick! Something might have happened to the helicopter!”
He drew his gun while rushing towards the direction of the rising black smoke. The man in gray and the man in the raincoat followed closely behind him.
“Do you really think something happened to the helicopter…? But they have always maintained a safe altitude.”
The man in gray sprinted and asked as he turned to look at the man in the raincoat.
The raincoat man turned his face, stared at him, and then moved his lips, “….”
“… Just pretend I didn’t ask.” The man in gray suddenly felt a chill.
Towards this teammate that always wore a long raincoat, the man in gray was afraid of him. He looked like a complete serial killer.
Li Hao actually heard the man in gray and said without looking back, “That’s true, but Ling Mo has also never shown up before. Now there’s such a big explosion, and the helicopter is also missing at this time… I don’t think it’s a coincidence.”
“With that altitude maintained by the helicopter… If it really was Ling Mo who shot it down….”
The man in gray didn’t finish his words, but the horror in his eyes had finished it for him.
“If that’s the case, then this enemy may be more difficult than we had imagined. I don’t know…. If they’re still alive…”
Li Hao said with a grim expression.
In the past two days, the helicopter had been hovering in the sky, but it had never found anything.
And although he had been tracking the fluctuations from the spiritual energy left by Ling Mo, it was to no avail.
Those familiar fluctuations were everywhere and there were several times where Li Hao felt that he was about to catch Ling Mo, however all he did was rush to emptiness.
“It seems that we were all tricked… Instead of taking out the ground team first, he took out the air team instead… Did he deliberately leave those spiritual energy fluctuations over there to lure us around?”
Li Hao closed his eyes while running.
Under his sensing, small spots of light started to emerge in the darkness in front of him. They floated slowly like tiny particles in the air.
These little spots were the traces left by the fluctuations of spiritual energy. As long as Ling Mo used his spiritual power, these remnants would be left where he was at that time.
As time passed, these spots of light would slowly merge with other various energies and would no longer be distinguishable, but before that, they would remain here for a quite a while.
Li Hao’s ability could not only capture these traces, but also determine whether they were left by the same person.
Although it’s all spiritual energy, the fluctuations left by different people are unique.
If Li Hao were stronger, he would be able to catch even the traces left by ordinary people when their minds fluctuated violently.
As long as he found a trace and as long as the target wasn’t dead, he would be able to find the target sooner or later.
Originally, Li Hao thought that his tracking method was secretive, and Ling Mo wouldn’t be able to figure it out for a while, so he wouldn’t be able to guard against them. But now, it seems that Ling Mo had deliberately left these spiritual fluctuations on purpose to trick them.
“Wait, Why…. How did he know?”
Li Hao was unable to reach a conclusion…
If Ling Mo knew what Li Hao was thinking at this moment, he would’ve definitely laughed until his stomach hurt…
Ling Mo obviously didn’t know what Li Hao’s ability was, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t find a way to deal with it.
It wasn’t difficult to let Xiao Bai rub against things along the way, or make him take a piss or something…
As for those fluctuations from spiritual energy…. As long as Xiao Bai’s spiritual connection was still maintained, there would definitely be traces left behind.
Ling Mo’s thought process was really simple, “Let Xiao Bai run ahead and give those dogs (Li Hao and his team) a walk. If that doesn’t work, then I would think of another way.
Unexpectedly, it actually worked…
“He actually played us like monkeys. He made us believe that we were leading him by the nose. Instead, we were played with…”
Li Hao gritted his teeth for a while. He fumbled out the walkie-talkie from his waist as he ran, but there was no response at all other than the sounds of static.
“What the hell happened?!”
The anxious Li Hao suddenly stopped after speeding into an alley.
At the other end of the alley, a figure was staggering forward as it leaned on the wall.
“Who is it?!”
Li Hao immediately raised the muzzle and asked sharply.
“It… It’s… me…”
The figure also stopped and replied in an unsteady voice.
In such a poorly lit alley and the light towards his back, his appearance looked a little unreal.
However, from Li Hao’s point of view, he could still see that one of this man’s arms was hanging softly by his side, and blood kept dripping down from his palm to the ground.
When he raised his head, the familiar shape of a peaked cap made Li Hao stunned:
“Old Tang! Is that you?”
The peaked cap supported himself on the wall with one hand, and said with difficulty, “Yeah, it’s me…”
“Great!”
Li Hao showed a hint of surprise, and quickly ran towards the man wearing the peaked cap.
However, when Li Hao grabbed the shoulders of the peaked cap and carefully inspected his situation, he was stunned once again, “You… your face…”
The peaked cap slowly lifted the brim of his cap, squinted his eyes, and gabbled loudly, “…The enemy is too cruel.”
“This degree is more than just cruel….”
“Although I can barely recognize that it truly is him, this appearance is too…”
Not only were his eyes so swollen that there was only a slit left, but his eyes also gave people the feeling as if he was ‘confused’. Even the expression on his face was difficult to guess…
“How can you see anything with your eyes swollen like this?!”
“And that slanted mouth… at least this could explain why he sounded weird.”
The man in gray and the man in the raincoat also ran over. When the two of them saw the peaked cap’s appearance, they were also silent for a while.
“BANG!”
Li Hao suddenly clenched his fist and slammed it on the wall next to him, “He went too far! Don’t worry, I’ll make him pay a hundred times more!”
“Can you remain conscious? Tell us about the situation first.”
As he said this, Li Hao winked at the man in gray, who immediately dropped his bag, and took out some first aid to bandage the peaked cap man’s injured wrist.
While doing this, the man in the peaked cap sat down against the wall and started to tell them the situation with great difficulty using that vague voice.
After he finished speaking, Li Hao frowned, “You mean, he deliberately didn’t kill you and left you alive to send us a message?”
“Yeah… He said that it should be considered a great humiliation if you guys were to see me alive like this.”
The peaked cap man seemed to want to express a kind of grief and anger, but with his face, he couldn’t show any expression…
“He’s really arrogant.”
Li Hao clenched his fists again. He suddenly showed a hint of confusion and said, “No… That’s not right… he didn’t intentionally let you go.”
The young man suddenly stood up and grabbed his pistol tightly, “The helicopter crash was already a great shame, so why would he keep you alive?”
“This…” Old Tang tried his best to open his eyes.
“Based on the situation that you just told me… he’s clearly lacking in spiritual power! Commanding so many zombies is also a lot of pressure for him. He also fought in a battle, which caused an even greater consumption…”
Li Hao quickly analyzed the real reason. As a spiritual-type psychic, he could naturally capture those points even though the peaked cap man’s narration was incomplete.
“Really… Is that the real reason? Then I… I shouldn’t…”
The peaked cap man smashed his fist regretfully, and the wound that had just been bandaged was again soaked with blood.
“It’s fine. Don’t blame yourself. He’s really good at acting… but now, it’s a good time for us to track him down and kill him!”
