Chapter 1228: Death Symphony
“So? Are we going over?” Zhang Xincheng asked.
“Since the other side has already extended such a sincere invitation…” Ling Mo nodded, “Of course we have to go. Besides, if we want to break the deadlock, we have to step into the game first…”
Under Li Yalin’s guidance, the group quickly moved toward the direction from which the piano music was coming.
What surprised everyone was that they were actually walking along the main road… It was only after a short distance that Li Yalin stopped, looked up at a tall building to the side.
It was a Hotel… Judging by the remnants of the red carpet at the entrance and the battered, deformed revolving door, this place must have once been quite splendid.
But now, the corpse hanging from the revolving door made the already desolate scene even more bloody. The corpse was even swaying slightly.
At the same time, a faint melody drifted out from inside the Hotel…
“Hmm… it’s actually quite elegant…” This time, Yuwen Xuan had barely finished speaking before someone couldn’t help but kick him in the butt.
“Look at this…”
Mu Chen frowned as he stepped past the crouching Yuwen Xuan, staring at the corpse. “This is a Zombie that just died not long ago… Is this scene supposed to suggest that we’ll be dancing gracefully to the music like this corpse?” He even added a sound effect, “Ugh!”
“The blood has already coagulated, but the Grim Reaper will return…” Xu Shuhan said, “This is the scene described by the music…”
“Hmm…” Everyone fell silent…
“The other side wants to tell us: death is waiting for us inside, and he will be the Grim Reaper who ends us.” Xu Shuhan continued.
“Oh…”
“That did cross my mind…” Everyone nodded in agreement.
Ling Mo pondered for a moment and said, “I hate this guy…”
“He actually admitted it so bluntly!”
“At least pretend a little, will you!”
“Instantly exposed his lack of learning…”
“But he’s not blindly arrogant either…” Xia Na stared at the corpse for a moment, then suddenly said, “Look at this corpse… it wasn’t hacked to death, nor was it shot… It’s more like it was instantly immobilized… and then…” As she shifted her gaze to the corpse’s abdomen, her pupils suddenly contracted, “There’s something strange here…”
Ling Mo also looked at the corpse and then extended a Tentacle toward it.
But the moment his Tentacle touched the corpse’s abdomen, he keenly sensed an extremely faint vibration.
Drip… drip…
“Back up!” Ling Mo’s expression changed drastically, and he shouted immediately.
“Boom!”
A muffled explosion followed, and with a rain of red, the entire corpse was instantly blown apart.
The revolving door also shattered with a loud crash. Shards of glass flew everywhere, but Ling Mo’s Tentacles blocked them, along with the chunks of flesh, from reaching the group. 𝙍А₦Ȫ𝖇Ёṣ
It all happened extremely fast, but in the next instant, everything returned to calm.
Ling Mo gritted his teeth as he looked at the scattered flesh on the ground. “This is already the second… no, third time today…”
Is it trendy now to mess with corpses!
But another person who likes to mess with corpses is still wandering outside the town with Xiao Bai and the others…
In this unclear situation, Ling Mo thought it best not to let them get too close…
But observing from the outermost edge should be fine…
“Hey, are we just laborers now?” Pear complained as she dragged Ban Yue along.
Simple groggily lifted her head from Xiao Bai’s back, “What are we doing? Walking a Panda?”
Smack!
A karate chop descended from the sky at lightning speed…
“Was that really necessary…” Simple muttered, collapsing again.
“Whew…” Pear happily shook her left hand. This hand could perfectly execute commands even without control…
Ban Yue turned her head to glance into the deathly silent town, “These humans… they’re just hate-attracting machines…”
“Haha… hahahaha…”
“You don’t sound very happy laughing…” Pear said.
“Shut up!”
“MeGu…”
…
“Ugh!” This time, Mu Chen’s sound was no longer just an effect, and quite a few others joined in…
This scene was just… too spectacular…
At this moment, the music started up again, even louder than before…
“Now I hate this guy too.” Ye Kai said darkly.
Clearly, the other side had used the music to cover up the sound of the timer… and the purpose was simply to disgust them.
“But if we’d been a bit closer, and the charge was heavier, we could have been injured too.” Zhang Xincheng frowned.
Although they were always on guard and could quickly get away, if the other side had waited until they were even closer…
“Because what the other side wants isn’t just to injure us, but to kill us. Without absolute confidence in taking us out, he won’t act rashly.” Ling Mo said. Even if the other side really planned to use a bomb, without thoroughly observing the environment, they wouldn’t dare get too close. Just now, they had kept a certain safe distance. Especially the slower ones like Skinny Monkey, who stayed at the back. Otherwise, whether anyone would have been splattered with blood is really hard to say… That would have left a shadow, in a way.
Xia Na walked over to a severed limb and observed for a while, then said, “Hmm… but even so, just to make us wary, he gutted an entire corpse. That’s really quite courageous…”
Maybe it was because the word “gutted” was so vivid… Mu Chen, who had just recovered a bit, turned pale again, and Gu Shuangshuang immediately covered her mouth.
If the opponent wasn’t human, it would be one thing…
“The melody has changed again…” Xu Shuhan said, “Now it’s turned into a very familiar tune…”
“It’s Ode to Joy… this bastard…” Black Silk grumbled unhappily.
Ling Mo immediately turned to look at it, his expression even more colorful: “Why do you know that…”
Carefully stepping around the scattered chunks of flesh, the group slowly approached the Hotel entrance soaked in plasma.
At this moment, the shattered entrance really did look a bit like the gates of hell, and with the extremely cheerful music, the whole atmosphere was just bizarre…
“Now everyone hates this guy…” Xia Na, walking at the front, looked up at the chunks of meat sliding down the glass above her head and muttered.
