Chapter 1029: Chapter 792: The Killer in Girl Form

“Ah!”

A girl burst through the wall, letting out a sharp scream.

In the rush, Ling Mo didn’t catch a clear look at her appearance but was startled by the scene.

“Judging by the way she appeared, she’s clearly taking a violent route, but that scream is quite eerie… Is this really his most powerful Phantom?”

In just an instant, Ling Mo had already made a judgment in his mind.

This girl… she’s likely a bloodthirsty, psychotic killer!

“First, an awakened female corpse, then a transformed nurse, and now a killer in girl form… Things are really getting more troublesome…”

At this moment, Ling Mo was still sprinting, not too far from Xu Shuhan’s location.

“But in the end, he’s still using psychic attack? If that’s the case, then let’s go head to head!”

Though the opponent seemed to have endless tactics, if you see through the essence, dealing with it wouldn’t be too difficult.

Ling Mo didn’t slow down. Several psychic tentacles had already “whooshed” out, aiming at the girl who had yet to land.

His approach was rather violent… First, use the tentacles to offset some of her psychic power, and then crash into her directly with his psychic light cluster.

In terms of psychic power, Ling Mo considered himself not weak, and even if the opponent was strong, she had just experienced some exhaustion.

Moreover, her psychic power was also scattered throughout the entire Illusion, she wouldn’t be able to gather much.

With this calculation, Ling Mo was confident this collision wouldn’t be a problem!

“Get out of my way!”

With Ling Mo’s angry shout, the girl’s scream abruptly stopped. She turned her head in mid-air and said, “Brother…”

“Spare me! Do you really think I’ll fall for this just because you swapped into a girl’s skin?”

Ling Mo felt a chill, his psychic tentacle had already shot straight at the girl: “I’ll blow you up!”

But at that moment, the girl’s hair was blown back behind her ears.

In the dim light, a face showing both shock and joy was revealed.

“Wait… this face seems familiar…”

Just as that thought popped into Ling Mo’s mind, the tentacle had already made contact.

The result was somewhat different from what he had expected-

The girl let out a brief scream as her body plummeted from mid-air.

“She’s not a Phantom after all!”

At the same time, Ling Mo’s body was crashing towards her…

“Boom!”

The area was immediately filled with dust and debris.

Although it was an Illusion, when the dust rose from the ground, it mirrored reality quite closely.

Ling Mo covered his mouth and nose, starting to get a vague understanding.

“Is the opponent starting to lessen the Illusion’s impact?” He wondered, glancing around as he propped himself up against a wall.

At the moment of the impending collision, Ling Mo used his Tentacle to forcibly twist his body, avoiding a direct impact.

However, the fact that the opponent was a living person was too unexpected. Although Ling Mo had managed to change direction, he almost crashed into the wall due to inertia.

But avoiding disaster was better than crashing. The girl wasn’t so lucky.

After taking a direct psychic shock from Ling Mo, her mind went blank for a moment.

It was only when she hit the ground with a “thud” that she let out a groan of pain instinctively.

“Hey…” Ling Mo took a few steps forward, observing the girl while calling out.

The girl struggled to prop herself up, woozily saying, “I… why are you… are you trying to hit me again…”

“She really seems familiar?”

Ling Mo was puzzled. He didn’t expect to meet a familiar face in Niepan…

“If she’s a Phantom, it’s normal to impersonate someone I know…”

He stepped closer and asked, “Who are you?”

“You… you don’t recognize me…” The girl shook her head vigorously, then suddenly lifted her head with a raised voice, “You’re so mean!”

Ling Mo was taken aback for a moment, and the two stared at each other…

A few seconds later…

“Wang Lin?” Ling Mo asked tentatively.

The girl blinked and then, in a delayed reaction, said, “Why is it a question!”

“It’s really you… But with the way you look now, recognizing you is already a miraculous feat for me…” Ling Mo said with some surprise but a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

Although this unexpected reunion made him feel quite surprised, seeing Wang Lin again brought a bit of happiness to Ling Mo.

“Xia Na has already awakened her humanized personality, she’ll be very happy to see Wang Lin again…” With this thought, Ling Mo was about to activate Vision Sharing with Xia Na. But just as the idea crossed his mind, he suddenly paused.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Why is Wang Lin here? Wasn’t she with that armed police squad?

In that moment, many questions flooded Ling Mo’s mind, and he temporarily suppressed the idea of Vision Sharing.

“What do you mean…” The girl glanced at Ling Mo in confusion, then raised her hand to touch her face following his gaze.

“Ah!” A scream echoed through the corridor once more…

…

As Ling Mo recognized Wang Lin, the Illusion in this area began to collapse.

This sight indicated that the superhuman constructing the Illusion was retracting their will and actively letting the mental energy dissipate.

However, the retraction of will is a gradual process, so the collapse of the Illusion wasn’t immediate.

With constant screams, the flesh-bound walls began to peel away first.

After the outermost layer disintegrated, countless black shadows burst out from within the walls.

These shadows screeched as they flew towards both ends of the corridor, some even almost colliding with Ling Mo.

But Ling Mo merely controlled a Tentacle to weave back and forth, standing unharmed in his original spot.

Immediately afterwards, the sticky substance beneath his feet began to dissolve, transforming from a pitch-black gelatinous form into a liquid, then seemingly absorbed by the ground, disappearing completely.

“Swish swish swish…”

Numerous black fragments continuously fell from the ceiling, vanishing just before they hit the ground.

The hanging corpses suddenly opened their eyes and exploded amidst screams…

“This Illusion’s destruction… what a hassle.” Ling Mo couldn’t help but mutter.

Wang Lin harrumphed twice but didn’t say a word.

By then, Ling Mo had already helped her to stand up, and as the Illusion fell apart, a small door appeared behind the peeling wall.

From the looks of it, this was the “wall gap” Wang Lin had jumped out of.

“There’s actually a storage room here…”

The layout of the wards on the Fifth Floor was indeed different from the other floors. Without prior knowledge, Ling Mo found it really difficult to discover this small space.

The door was barely wide enough for one person to pass through, and unless Ling Mo searched inch by inch, he would most likely miss it.

At this moment, a man was sitting on a bucket inside the storage room, smoking a cigarette. His eyes, encircled with dark circles, were attempting to look calm as he stared at Ling Mo.

However, his pale face and trembling hands betrayed the fact that he was greatly overexerted.

He forced a faint smile and asked, “You’re Ling Mo? When Wang Lin described you, I didn’t think you were that strong, but you really surprised me… Not only did you ignore my Illusion, you weren’t even affected in the final moments…”

“And the other one?” Ling Mo interrupted him directly.

The man let out a long puff of smoke and said, “The woman? I’ve stopped affecting her and just temporarily trapped her there. Are you two together? Don’t worry, I didn’t directly interact with her, nor did I use the Illusion to harm her…”

As he spoke, the man nodded towards the exhausted Wang Lin with his chin and said, “She heard that woman calling your name, so she brought her up. My intention was to capture her, but she was too fast, so I had to use the Illusion to trap her…”

“You trapped her to capture her later?” Ling Mo frowned and asked.

“No, I just wanted her to voluntarily provide some information.” Wang Lin answered this time, cutting him off.

She leaned weakly against the wall, looking rather dejected, and asked glumly, “What, you don’t want to see me?”

“You mistook her for my enemy?” Ling Mo asked again, “Otherwise, the first thing to try should have been a conversation?”

Wang Lin instinctively wanted to nod, but under Ling Mo’s gaze, she eventually pursed her lips, averted her eyes, and softly murmured, “Because I didn’t know her…”
