Chapter 686: Its All ck Inside After Cutting It Open!
“Don’t… don’t scream! Shh!”
Ling Mo quickly crouched down and covered Yu Shiran’s mouth, nervously ncing up and down at her. “Are you okay? How’s ck Silk?”
That scream had made him pretty uneasy. Could it be that the early hatching had caused some issues?
But upon closer inspection, it didn’t seem like it…
Yu Shiran gradually calmed down, though her eyes were still wide open.
Seeing Ling Mo’s puzzled expression, Xia Na said from the side, “She’s just in shock. Waking up to see the Sausage she’s been dreaming about, how could she not scream…”
Yu Shiran, her mouth still covered, blinked and nodded vigorously.
Ling Mo reflexively looked down and frowned, “It’s not even broken, how could she have seen it…”
“It’s only ayer of fabric, how hard is it to imagine?” Xia Na replied matter-of-factly.“Humans invented clothes specifically to stop perverts from imagining things, okay…” Ling Mo said helplessly.
Once the truth was revealed, Ling Mo immediately felt that Yu Shiran’s gaze was filled with malice. It made his scalp tingle, not to mention the chilly sensation sweeping over a certain part of his body.
“Stop screaming, or you’ll attract zombies,” Ling Mo warned seriously, then slowly let go of Yu Shiran.
The zombie loli had just regained her freedom when she suddenly lunged forward, wrapping her arms around Ling Mo.
“Wait, no need to hug my leg so urgently. Tell me about your situation first…”
Before Ling Mo could finish his sentence, he realized that Yu Shiran wasn’t just hugging him.
Her face was pressed against Ling Mo’s leg, rubbing it contentedly with her eyes closed in bliss.
“……”
Ling Mo looked at Yu Shiran with an “I’ve seen a ghost” expression, then turned to Ye Lian and the others.
“What’s going on?!” Ling Mo asked in a low voice.
But it wasn’t just him; Ye Lian and the other two girls were equally stunned.
If Yu Shiran had lunged to bite Ling Mo, that would have been expected.
But being so affectionate, there was definitely something wrong here!
Xia Na kept gesturing frantically at Ling Mo, signaling him to tap Yu Shiran on the head.
“See if she got interrupted midway through her evolution and it messed her up…”
“Good idea…” Ling Mo thought. It wouldn’t hurt to try, after all.
He didn’t want to hit her, but sensing her mental state was definitely necessary…
Just as Ling Mo’s hand was about to touch the top of Yu Shiran’s head, he suddenly heard a very soft sound from the mouth of the zombie loli: “Woof…”
“Holy crap!”
Ling Mo’s body instantly froze, and he was thoroughly spooked!
What the heck was this?!
Although Yu Shiran’s voice was quite different from the real deal, sounding more like a little girl whining, the simr sound at such close range was unmistakable to Ling Mo!
Slowlying out of his shock, the first thing Ling Mo thought of was ck Silk’s previous “human form”—that zombie girl in a maid outfit…
“But… but Yu Shiran is a symbiote!”
Still in a panic, Ling Mo quickly moved his hand to Yu Shiran’s head.
“It’s still there…”
The furry scarf was still wrapped around Yu Shiran’s neck, and it even looked fluffier than before.
To be sure, Ling Mo reached out and touched it twice.
“Almost thought they had merged…”
But no matter how you looked at it, it seemed like ck Silk had taken over. How else could this be exined?
At that moment, Yu Shiran suddenly shivered and opened her eyes.
Her first reaction was to nce at the thigh she was hugging, then her eyes moved upward…
“Stop.” With quick reflexes, Ling Mo pressed down on her head.
Having been in continuous shock, Ling Mo hadn’t noticed that his own condition had quietly changed.
As Yu Shiran and ck Silk’s evolutions came to an end, Ling Mo’s state also recovered.
Not only did his stamina gradually return, but his control over his entire body also came back to him.
Fatigue vanished entirely, and his strength increased significantly. His limbs felt stronger than ever.
“It even cured my long-standing lower back pain…”
Ling Mo subconsciously touched his lower back, marveling at the change.
Just then, Ling Mo suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Li Yalin staring intently at what he was doing.
“Oops, miscalcted…”
“Sausage Humans…” Yu Shiran slowly lifted her head, her small face taking on a murderous expression as she red coldly at Ling Mo.
Before Ling Mo could say anything, she started waving her short arms and legs, shouting, “Now ck Silk’s thoughts have merged with mine! I’m neither a Zombie nor a Fierce Beast anymore—how are you going topensate me?! Tell me! How are you going topensate me?!”
“Ban Yue definitely won’t want me anymore, and if ck Silk wants to find a mate in the future, how will they split up?! She won’t want me! You! You go find Ban Yue for me!”
The zombie loli was screaming hysterically, while Ling Mo was left dumbfounded.
“Merged?”
He thought for a moment and then quickly extended a Psychic Tentacle.
As he inspected the situation, Ling Mo’s expression grew increasingly strange.
“It’s true…”
Generally speaking, it’s impossible for different individuals’ Psychic Light Clusters to fully merge. Even if forced by external means, there would be many side effects.
Take Number 0, for example—that’s a vivid case…
But Yu Shiran and ck Silk’s situation was unique; as symbiotes, they evolved together from the start.
Ling Mo had always understood their survival mode to be simr to “parasitism.”
But now it appeared much moreplex.
In their usual state, they were two tightly connected individuals, but during evolution, they would truly be one entity.
This was likely the true purpose of thatrge cocoon. When their Psychic Light Clusters merged, the cocoon provided protection, creating a private space for them.
Once their evolution wasplete and the light clusters separated, the cocoon would retract under ck Silk’s control.
However, no one expected this cocoon to be so fragile… ck Silk’s silver thread was supposed to be very tough!
Thinking about this, Ling Mo gloomily grabbed a silver thread from the “scarf” and gave it a tug: “How did it suddenly downgrade to weak trash…”
But after the first tug, Ling Mo was stunned.
He tugged it again, twice, not believing it, and finally realized.
This wasn’t fragile at all; it was even stronger than steel wire!
But if that was the case, how could therge cocoon, made of so many interwoven silver threads, be crushed so easily?
Ling Mo turned his head and looked at the ground, then reached out to pull up a silver thread.
With just one look, Ling Mo suddenly understood.
This silver thread seemed simr to the kind on ck Silk, but if you tugged it gently…
Snap!
The broken silver thread hung from Ling Mo’s fingertip, and his expression as he looked at the “scarf”pletely changed.
It clearly looked like just a fluffy scarf, sometimes a tiny dog head the size of a thumb would poke out and tilt its head at people…
But why was it so devious?
When Xia Na had mentioned that ck Silk was ck inside, Ling Mo didn’t have a clear concept, but now he saw it with his own eyes!
Moreover, the scapegoat was him!
A chill ran up Ling Mo’s spine. Suddenly, he noticed that Yu Shiran had stopped shouting and wasn’t moving…
“Wh-what’s wrong?” Ling Mo asked in a low voice.
Yu Shiran was silent for two seconds, then suddenly lifted her head. Her big red eyes were wide open, staring unblinkingly at him. In a cold tone, she said, “You know.”
Even with Ling Mo’s strong will, his heart almost jumped out of his throat at that moment.
That tone, that expression, and those words…
Who was this?!
“The opportunity has finallye, I’ve been waiting a long time…”
“Yu Shiran” continued in a sinister voice, “How can a body like an essory satisfy me… Even though this body is shared with that little fool, at least it’s strong enough… being a bit shorter doesn’t matter, as long as the important parts are adequately sized…”
Ling Mo stared at “Yu Shiran” in shock. If his mind wasn’tpletely clear and if there were any Psychic Fluctuations around, he would have thought he was hallucinating!
That tone… it was obviously ck Silk!
“Alright, my usage time is almost up, so let’s keep this brief. I’ve just fused with her, and it’s not stable yet. Once we maintain this state and evolve further, things will improve.”
Yu Shiran—or rather, ck Silk—forced a stiff smile at Ling Mo and said, “Actually, I’ve always wanted to say hello to you, and there’s something very important I’ve wanted to tell you for a long time.”
“Go ahead…” Ling Mo nodded with difficulty.
The feeling was really strange. Although he knew ck Silk had evolved into some unknown creature, he hadn’t expected to have a face-to-face conversation with her.
But ck Silk’s tone was indeed peculiar. Compared to a Zombie, her manner of speaking was more mechanical andcked the sense of a living being.
Ling Mo couldn’t even feel that this was a living creature…
Or rather, she seemed more like a pure spiritual body than a biological entity.
“Staying with that zerobat-power girl who deludes herself into thinking she can hide herck ofbat ability by pretending to be a guy, I’ve had enough! Being with you is great; you’re the kind of master I like! Although you’re not the best at feeding me, at least you don’t pet my head all day and ask me to roll over or something… By the way, mybat power is now off the charts.”
ck Silk proudly straightened her body, raised a hand, and ced it in Ling Mo’s palm. Her eyes suddenly became a bit watery: “See you next time.”
“Bye…”
“Wait, I forgot again. You canmunicate with me directly on a psychic level now, but since my mind is a one-plus-one situation, to avoid confusion, it’s better to keep it like this. After all, I’m not the main body and can onlye out for a limited time each day. But if I keep evolving, I’ll eventually be a super creature beyond humans, Zombies, and beasts, and then I won’t be limited like this…”
ck Silk talked for a while longer, then suddenly her body stiffened, and her expression gradually reverted to Yu Shiran’s previous state.
“Where was I? And ck Silk, stop taking over my body without permission!” Yu Shiran said angrily.
“She really is a chatterbox…” Ling Mo was still in a daze.
