My Girlfriend is a Zombie-Chapter 981: The Red Eyes in the Lens

Ling Mo’s voice came through the speaker, followed by a series of rustling sounds. The screen showed the “Giant God Warrior” struggling and waving its arms, while the black fog slowly approached the lens.

“It’s going in…” Xu Shuhan felt a bit nervous. Even though she knew it was just a recording, the recent experience made her feel as if she were the one holding the mobile phone and going in. On the other hand, Ling Mo remained calm, with a hint of anticipation on his face.

“Annoying…” Xu Shuhan muttered to herself, but her eyes were wide open, unwilling to miss a single detail. After all, it was just a video…

The lens had now fully entered the black fog, and the screen turned pitch black. After a couple of shakes, some vague outlines began to appear. The image quality was so poor that they had to watch closely, afraid of missing any changes.

“Ah!” Xu Shuhan suddenly exclaimed, shrinking back and pointing at the screen. “There was a shadow…”

“It was the Monster’s hand,” Ling Mo explained, still focused on the screen. “We had just entered, so even if there was something, it couldn’t reach us. But did you notice? There’s no sound.”

“No sound?” Xu Shuhan, who had been concentrating on the screen, only then realized-there really was no sound. It seemed that from the moment the screen turned black, the mobile phone had stopped picking up any noise…

Compared to a Zombie’s night vision, the mobile phone’s night shooting capability was much worse. But it had its advantages: it was safe and could record audio. When the camera was on, so was the audio. But now, the video was still playing, yet there was no sound. Was it broken? Impossible, it was working just a moment ago. If it were just quiet around them, that would be one thing, but what about the Monster’s struggling sounds? It was still being dragged by Ling Mo, after all. It shouldn’t just give up…

“Is the Monster not moving?” Xu Shuhan asked tentatively. freewebnσvel.cѳm

Ling Mo’s mouth twitched. “That’s right. I can sense its every move with my psychic power, so I’m sure of it. Isn’t it strange?”

Xu Shuhan nodded. “Yeah… Normally, it should struggle harder to escape, especially now that it’s away from us and closer to its companions…”

“Yes, that’s the usual response, but here, it’s the most fatal move,” Ling Mo said.

“What do you mean? Oh… You mean…” Xu Shuhan suddenly thought of how they had “avoided” the Monsters earlier. Comparing the two, their actions seemed quite similar to the Monster’s!

“Exactly. I didn’t think much of it at the time, just found it odd. But then something else happened…” Ling Mo said.

At that moment, the mobile phone picked up a new sound.

“Rustle…”

“It’s those Monsters!” Xu Shuhan covered her mouth, her face full of fear. Even though the sound was faint, it felt like a thunderclap to her. She could almost imagine something crawling in the darkness, staring at her through the screen…

“Don’t worry, they’re still far away. I think they were attracted by the mobile phone’s light, so their reaction is still mild,” Ling Mo said.

Indeed, the sound was still faint. If they were really close, the mobile phone would be overwhelmed by the rustling sound. But Xu Shuhan didn’t understand why the Monsters’ reaction was still mild if they had noticed the light. She thought about it and asked.

“Well… Remember the Monster’s goal? It wanted to lure us in. I guess its plan was to speed up, create some distance, and then let us make noise and get noticed,” Ling Mo explained.

Xu Shuhan nodded in realization. “So, they’re mainly reacting to sound?”

“Yes, but more accurately, they’re reacting to the presence of living beings. The Monsters can sense the presence of creatures and then ambush them from the black fog,” Ling Mo added.

“I see…” Xu Shuhan felt a chill. Although Ling Mo’s words were just guesses, they seemed to be the most plausible explanation given the circumstances. She had thought the Monster had some elaborate scheme to trap them, but it turned out to be such a straightforward method.

The simpler the method, the easier it was to fall for it, especially when it involved breathing. Who could have predicted that? Thinking back, she still found it terrifying…

No wonder Ling Mo had covered her mouth and nose. He must have been holding his breath too…

“But I was pressing down on him, and he didn’t complain…” Xu Shuhan’s thoughts drifted back, and she quickly shook herself out of it. Now was not the time to think about that… Focus on the video!

They were still in the black fog, and the Monsters could return at any moment. The more they learned now, the better their chances of survival. And she could guess Ling Mo’s thoughts… He probably wasn’t in a hurry to leave…

“Listen, the sound is getting louder,” Ling Mo said, bringing the mobile phone closer.

The rustling sound was indeed clearer. According to Ling Mo’s analysis, it was because the mobile phone was getting closer to the Monsters. The “Giant God Warrior” remained silent, seemingly holding its breath.

But then, the screen suddenly shook, and the rustling sound intensified.

Xu Shuhan instinctively leaned back, while Ling Mo explained seriously, “This is when I used my psychic power to influence the Monster.”

It was more than just influence; he had used his Tentacle to force the Monster… This was to test his hypothesis. The Monster didn’t make a sound, just breathed heavily twice, and caused such a commotion. The subsequent events were straightforward…

As the Monster let out a scream, the lens shook violently. When a drop of blood splattered on the lens, a shadow seemed to flash by… Then there was a tumble, and when the screen steadied, Ling Mo’s figure appeared.

This all happened in a second, but it left Xu Shuhan stunned… Even though the Monster had no resistance, it was still one of their kind… Yet they tore off the “Giant God Warrior’s” head…

On the other hand, Xu Shuhan knew firsthand the “Giant God Warrior’s” defensive capability… It was hard enough to leave a scratch, let alone tear off its head. Only someone at Ye Lian or Xia Na’s level could possibly kill it with their own strength. Of course, there were many ways to kill it, but none that these Monsters would use. They simply swarmed it…

Most importantly…

“Did you see that?” Xu Shuhan blinked, her voice a bit shaky.

“Yes…” Ling Mo nodded heavily.

As he swiped his finger across the screen, the video began to rewind, finally pausing. The screen showed a blood-red eye… It was so close to the lens that it filled the entire screen.

In the midst of the blood-red, they could feel a chilling presence through the screen… as if it were staring right at them!
