Although Xia Na was a little confused by the fact that Ye Lian also stayed, but it must be said that when they were withdrawing, Ling Mo's calm and slightly smiling expression still deeply shocked her.
As for the thoughts of the others, they were all different...
But in any case, Ling Mo's brave act of actively helping, even at great personal risk, has touched many people. Some even felt ashamed and even regretted the exclusionary emotions they had previously harbored toward Ling Mo.
However, Ling Mo, who remained on the spot did not even consider these things. To him, other people's opinions, especially those of these unrelated individuals, could be completely ignored. What mattered was that he had done what he wanted to do, with a clear conscience.
Of course, the most crucial question is, is this matter really life-threatening for Ling Mo?
The answer is naturally negative! Ling Mo would not do something as foolish as knowingly jumping into the tiger's den and getting himself killed, no matter how much of a hero complex he might have.
After Xia Na and the others had disappeared without a trace, Ling Mo finally patted his nose and walked into a nearby mobile phone store, as if he was just going for a window shopping.
When he first arrived here, the few zombies inside heard the commotion and rushed out, but they were all cut down by Xia Na. The corpses were lying at the entrance. Ling Mo left Ye Lian outside and crossed over the bodies to enter the store.
Since the apocalypse broke out, all public facilities have become useless, and communications are no exception. However, what Ling Mo was looking for was not an ordinary mobile phone, but a powerful, portable speaker-like knockoff!
Fortunately, this mobile phone store was not a brand-specific one, and they sold all kinds of off-brand phones. Ling Mo rummaged through the messy counter and found a few fully charged phones, then left the store satisfied.
Having the speaker, if he just left it ringing on the ground, it could attract some zombies, but to lure all the zombies on the street would be a stretch. Moreover, this would also be quite dangerous for him. Imagine, once the sound is played, zombies from all directions will converge, and while Ye Lian might be safe standing in the pile of corpses, where could Ling Mo run to?
Moreover, since he had taken the initiative, he should do his best, otherwise it would be a waste of his abilities.
Indeed, for an ordinary person, this task has a 90% chance of death, but for Ling Mo, this was an easy task...
He first cautiously approached the street, using his puppet control ability to take control of three zombies.
However, in order to avoid being seen by Xia Na and others who were hiding somewhere, Ling Mo deliberately chose a blind corner, and let the three zombies come to him.
"Come, one each." Ling Mo said in a sinister tone, distributing the phones to these zombies.
He specifically selected young and strong zombie youths so that their movements would be faster.
After taking a look outside at the situation on the street, Ling Mo controlled the zombies and returned them to the street with their mobile phones. He and Ye Lian hid in this blind corner, calculating the distance between them and these zombie puppets.
Controlling three zombies at the same time, it stands to reason that the control distance will be reduced as a result, but after Ye Lian's last evolution, the intensity of Ling Mo's mental power is no longer the same.
Thirty meters... fifty meters... one hundred meters... one hundred and fifty... three hundred!
Ling Mo frowned, his face pale as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "The limit is three hundred meters... and they're about to slip out of control, but it's enough."
Ling Mo then turned his gaze to the nearby hospital, immediately forming a plan in his mind.
The direct distance between him and the hospital was no more than one hundred meters...
"Here we go!"
Ling Mo controlled two zombies to walk as far as possible to the other end of the street, and just as his head was about to explode, he stopped them. The moment one of the zombies pressed the play button, Ling Mo felt like he was about to faint.
In this era, there is a song that is sure to appear on any knockoff mobile phone, and the volume is loud enough!
As soon as the play button was pressed, there was a brief silence, and then an ear-piercing sound immediately rang out: "Seven wooden sticks swinging, do you want to do it or not! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!" (TL: idk this Chinese song)
As soon as the music started playing, the zombie immediately threw off its arms and rushed out like an arrow, heading straight for the hospital door.
The zombies wandering on the street almost immediately turned their attention to this human-shaped walking speaker and soon began to let out unintelligible howls, rushing toward it.
Just as Ling Mo had guessed, there were too many zombies on the street, and before the zombie puppet could even reach halfway, it was knocked down by the zombies, and the music quickly disappeared.
But no matter, Ling Mo had already given up control of this zombie, and the moment the music stopped, the second phone immediately rang.
The same music, the same movements, but it attracted even more and more distant zombies, bringing those wandering in the distance to the front.
Now, there were almost densely packed zombies over a hundred meters away from Ling Mo!
As the third cell phone rang, the direction the sound came from was not among the zombies, but from the entrance of the hospital!
While controlling the other two zombies, Ling Mo had already guided the third zombie to the hospital entrance, and the moment the second phone was destroyed, it pressed the play button.
A huge wave of zombies rushed towards the hospital, and the spectacular scene made Ling Mo, who was observing through the third zombie's perspective, shudder involuntarily.
These zombies were different from those in the movies - they were fast, their movements were fierce, and the impact of such a large wave rushing over was extraordinary!
However, as soon as the gathered zombie horde started to move, Ling Mo immediately controlled the third zombie to run into the hospital.
There were also a lot of zombies in the hospital. Although the third zombie jumped left and right under Ling Mo's control, it was eventually blocked in the outpatient hall.
Living people probably have never experienced being surrounded and cornered by hundreds of people, nor can they imagine what it feels like to have countless hands reaching towards them, let alone the feeling of watching themselves being torn apart. But in order to delay as much as possible, Ling Mo had to endure this feeling.
Fortunately, zombies have no sense of pain, which is a blessing in this misfortune...
And during this process, the phone was almost knocked to the ground several times, but Ling Mo fully mobilized his mental strength, constantly switching his control targets, and stubbornly delayed for several minutes!
A few minutes may be short, but when surrounded by hundreds of zombies, a few minutes is enough for hundreds of people to be instantly torn apart.
For Ling Mo, it was a great test of his mental strength and reaction speed.
As for Xia Na and the others, the moment the "divine song" rang out, they were immediately in a panic!
"This is just asking to die!" Xia Na gritted her teeth angrily, grabbed her long sword, and rushed out of the small building where they were temporarily hiding, the others unable to stop her in time.
But when she saw the scene on the street from afar, she was stunned!
The sight of hundreds of zombies rushing in one direction was something she had only seen at the very beginning of the apocalypse, and it was hard to imagine that this was a human-orchestrated event!
For a moment, Xia Na was both shocked and delighted, but also filled with worry!
But this is not the time to worry... After backhanding a few zombies that appeared behind her after being attracted by the sound, Xia Na immediately ran upstairs: "Okay, let's go!"
"Now?"
"Can we really get through?"
"Shut up, the person is risking his life to clear the way for us, hurry up!"
The street was not completely free of zombies, as some hidden ones had also been attracted out. However, Ling Mo's final act of luring most of the zombies into the hospital had avoided attracting too many more hidden ones.
So the street was not completely safe, but it was much easier to get through than before.
When Xia Na and the others rushed onto the street, they did not see Ling Mo, only noticing that most of the zombies had rushed into the hospital.
Could Ling Mo and Ye Lian have gone into the hospital? That would be suicide!
Xia Na stomped her feet anxiously, but she couldn't just leave the group behind. Just then, she saw a sweaty Ling Mo leading the expressionless Ye Lian out of a small alley.
“Quick! Let’s go! I'm at my limit!"
As soon as Ling Mo finished speaking, they heard a loud noise coming from the hospital. Countless glass shards fell from the second floor, and a dozen zombies fell at the same time. At the same time, the door of the hospital was completely crushed. Some zombies immediately noticed Xia Na and the others and rushed towards them.
"Run!"
Xia Na didn't bother to say anything else, in this situation, even if she didn't urge them, these people would be running for their lives.
Once they were held back, they would be trapped in the midst of hundreds of zombies!
