My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 1035: Surface Invasion

Rumble!

The tremors from underground reached the surface within seconds, just as Ling Mo and the others dashed out of the small building.

“What’s happening?” Xia Na stopped abruptly, her senses on high alert.

Li Yalin looked around in confusion, her voice tinged with bewilderment, “Is it an earthquake?”

“No… look over there!” Ye Lian suddenly raised her hand, pointing ahead with urgency.

Everyone struggled to steady themselves as they followed her gaze…

“Isn’t that… the building where the Progenitor was killed?”

“What on earth is going on?”

The unfinished skyscraper, still under construction, was slowly tilting to one side right before their eyes…

Boom!

Before Ling Mo and the others could react, a deafening explosion-like sound erupted. In the place where the building once stood, only a massive cloud of dust and smoke, resembling a mushroom cloud, remained…

It collapsed!

The sudden collapse of the building left not only Ling Mo and his group in shock but also caused the Zombies on the street to pause and turn their heads towards the commotion.

It took a full two or three seconds before Ling Mo’s pupils contracted, his expression turning grim as he said, “Could Yuwen Xuan and the others have gone down from there?”

“It seems so…” Xia Na’s eyes widened in realization, murmuring in response.

The four exchanged glances and almost simultaneously sprinted forward…

Meanwhile, inside the Underground Passage.

Atop a mound formed by humanoid eggs, a gigantic Monster was howling in agony.

The humanoid eggs beneath it were shriveling one by one within their “amber shells,” turning into streams of flesh juice. The Monster greedily sucked them dry with straws extending from its abdomen. ȑ𝘼₦ОＢÊș

Surrounding it, there were no other Monsters… The empty sewer echoed only with its relentless cries…

“Roar!”

Amidst its heart-wrenching screams, the Progenitor’s abdomen convulsed violently. Its belly had become nearly transparent, and each time it swelled, a shadow could be vaguely seen from the outside…

It was a human silhouette.

This Progenitor was in the process of giving birth!

And this act was distinctly different from when it created other underground monsters…

Click…

With a sound akin to tearing, the Monster suddenly arched its upper body, letting out a cry of extreme pain.

Splat!

The sudden split of the abdomen made the Monster seem as if it had been cleaved in two. A slender, pale hand reached out from within, and amidst the Monster’s fading screams, a completely naked figure stepped out with an incredibly graceful demeanor through the opening.

As it stood atop the now desiccated mound of corpses, the Progenitor convulsed and fell backward helplessly.

“Thud!”

The Progenitor hit the ground, but the figure didn’t even glance back. It raised its hands, examining its long fingers and perfectly shaped blood-red nails.

“Haha… Hahahahaha…”

In the darkness, a woman’s laughter suddenly echoed. The sound was gentle, and even the figure exuded a soft beauty.

“Hahaha… Success? That human probably never expected it, right? Whether the plan succeeded or not, I would still shed my skin as originally intended… From now on, I’m completely free from that body! That body that slowly turned into a Monster during evolution… From now on, I’m no longer trapped underground! But… what is this feeling of weakness? And why do I feel somewhat…”

It spoke slowly, “Ah… Imperfect…”

At this point, it suddenly raised its head.

As its black hair parted to either side, its face was finally revealed.

It was an almost perfect female face… Eyes, nose, mouth, face shape, every detail was flawless… But! One of its eyes was blood-red… entirely, suffused with blood-red! And near that eye, blood-red blood vessels crawled, resembling a miniature of the Progenitor on its eye.

And that blood-red eye was precisely where the Monster’s head had been! When it opened this eye, it felt as if the Progenitor was staring at you, eerie and spine-chilling…

“Ahhh!”

It touched its face with its hand and screamed sharply, “Why! Why is this happening!… How long have I prepared for this shedding! Where did it go wrong? What… Oh…” It suddenly stopped yelling and muttered to itself, “When that human killed the spiritual body… what exactly did they do?”

A few seconds later, it suddenly laughed again, but this time the laughter was chilling, “Haha… Devour? Could it be?” Its hands slowly traced down its face, the sharp nails making a grating noise against the skin. “Although my original plan was to devour him, I never expected a human to understand Devour… Such a pity, not devouring him is such a pity! If everything had gone according to my plan, I would now have a broken, completely at my mercy Ling Mo, right? In that case, once I shed my skin, I would be perfectly powerful…”

“That’s right!”

It suddenly looked down at its feet, “And another important nutrient… has disappeared. That was the failed product left from the last attempt to shed skin? Although it can’t compare to this body, it still cost me quite a bit of effort…”

“I’m getting more and more curious… While my consciousness wasn’t here, they actually took the opportunity to steal that body… Ahhh!” It screamed again, then knelt down on the corpse beneath it. When it finally stopped, it was supporting itself on the corpse, looking at the face inside, completely drained and mummy-like.

It was silent for a long time before murmuring, “In that case… let them keep it for me. That body, and you… Ling Mo! Until then, enjoy this chaotic world… We will meet again, we definitely will…”

“Ling Mo!!!”

…

“Ling Mo!”

A shout suddenly came from a corner of the ruins.

“Xu Shuhan? Where are you?”

Ling Mo, who had just arrived nearby, was startled and quickly ran towards the voice.

It seemed to be a triangular area, with several concrete slabs piled together, and the voice came from the gap between them.

“Here…” Xu Shuhan replied. From her voice, it seemed she was under some weight…

Ye Lian and the three girls immediately stepped forward, quickly moving the concrete slabs aside.

Xu Shuhan, who was supporting one of the slabs, was revealed. She tossed the slab aside, grabbed Ye Lian’s hand, and climbed out, gasping, “I thought… I was going to die… Luckily I smelled… your scent… How did you… end up here too?”

“How did you get trapped here? But it’s okay, as long as you’re fine,” Ling Mo said, brushing the dust off her shoulder.

“Long story… We were so close to getting out… Didn’t expect the building to suddenly… collapse…” Xu Shuhan continued, still catching her breath, “But… that’s not the main point, listen to me, something big has happened…”

Ling Mo was about to ask a question when suddenly another voice came from below, “Ling Mo? Is that you! Hey, don’t just stand there chatting! And Host Xu, I supported you, didn’t I? Are you just going to ignore me after you crawled out? I used my superpower to get us both up here! If you don’t help me, someone might really die! Damn it… I can’t hold this any longer… it’s collapsing! Help!”

Xu Shuhan snapped back to reality, quickly turning around and reaching down as she spoke, “What did you support me with? I told you it’s not like that! Besides, I was the one holding up the concrete slab when the building collapsed! I kicked you into the triangle area! Hey, why are you grabbing my sleeve…”

“I can’t reach…”

“Let me, let me…” Ling Mo waved his hand, feeling a bit of a headache, and extended a tentacle down.

A second later, Yuwen Xuan was yanked out with a yelp, landing heavily on the ground. His entire body, especially his backside, was still emitting black smoke…

“Cough, cough…” Ling Mo waved his hand in front of his nose, “What weird material pants are you wearing this time…”

“This time… aluminum foil underwear… custom-made…” Yuwen Xuan said, twitching suddenly, “It’s so hot!”

“By the way, Host Xu, what did you mean by something big happening?” Ling Mo turned to ask.

Xu Shuhan was about to answer when her eyes widened suddenly, and she whispered, “Looks like… I don’t need to say anything…”

Ling Mo glanced at her in surprise, his heart skipping a beat. He slowly turned his head, and his pupils contracted sharply…

From beneath the ruins of the building, at the location of the entrance, concrete slabs were being lifted one by one…

Swish!

As the first hand shrouded in black fog reached out, soon, one after another, underground monsters emerged as if crawling out of graves, appearing on the surface. They clicked their bodies and then tilted their heads back, letting out a series of piercing screams.

“Howl! Howl! Howl!”

Dozens… hundreds… thousands…

These monsters seemed endless, continuously pouring out from underground… and their cries echoed throughout the entire area…
