My Girlfriend is a Zombie - Chapter 1084: Detonate!

The moment the figure appeared, Sun Xu’s eyes widened in shock: “What’s going on?!” Even though he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, the aura brought him a strong sense of familiarity.
It was that Survivor! This feeling, this mental pressure… there’s no mistake, it’s him! When he had just revealed himself, the aura he sensed was exactly the same as this. He definitely wouldn’t judge wrongly!
But wasn’t he supposed to be dead? Under the attack of the Mother Spider, could he possibly resist?
Could it be… the Mother Spider’s ambush failed?
Sun Xu was incredulous; he had painstakingly prepared for this ambush, even using his own safety as a decoy… But now, what was happening?!
At the same time, the Mother Spider also sensed the anomaly behind it.
Though its body was large, its reaction speed was astonishingly fast. Almost as soon as it discovered the figure, its two hind legs stabbed down like lightning. Even if Ling Mo’s body was encased in iron, this strike would surely pierce through him. The sound of those legs piercing the ground echoed throughout the factory. Such force was not something a human body could withstand.
However, when the Mother Spider quickly turned around, it only found two deep holes in the ground…
Its target had vanished…
“What happened? What exactly happened? Why isn’t he dead? Why can he appear again?” Sun Xu’s perpetually calm face finally showed a change… He breathed heavily, staring in the direction where the Mother Spider appeared, his mind racing.Where did the mistake occur?
Why did this seemingly flawless plan fail at the last step?
The result before him clearly left the confident Sun Xu somewhat dumbfounded…
The plan failed, completely disrupted by the opponent…
If the previous attempts were merely probing, then this failure could very likely lead to a series of adverse reactions…
For instance, the Mother Spider, which suddenly fell into passivity from being an ambusher…
After the figure disappeared, it didn’t attack wildly around but stayed alert in place. It could feel that the figure hadn’t truly vanished; he was nearby, possibly watching it…
“No, if this continues, we’ll be led by the nose; we must quickly turn the situation around!” Sun Xu quickly regained his composure, thinking to himself.
However, just as he was about to act, he suddenly froze, his steps halting.
“Are you trying to run?” A slightly playful voice came from behind him. Sun Xu slightly turned his head, glancing back with the corner of his eye. The black-haired girl was holding that exaggeratedly shaped Scythe, smiling at him. But beyond the sweet smile was a pair of cold eyes, making her seem eerily strange.
As Sun Xu looked forward, he found another figure had silently appeared. It was that girl who seemed a bit dazed; even in the dim light, he could see her features were very delicate. But in this situation, he dared not stare at the girl’s face for long because in her hand was a Short Knife gleaming with cold light.
“No… I won’t let you pass.” The girl said softly. Her tone held no hint of threat, but Sun Xu immediately frowned. This girl also gave a very unsettling feeling…
At this moment, figures emerged from both sides.
These girls surrounded him, but instead of bringing any joy from seeing beauties, there was only deep apprehension…
“Why did they come so quickly! I know they’ve discovered some clues, but even so, I believed the Boss’s ambush would work wonders. In fact, letting them discover a bit would be better, as it would focus their attention on me. But now… I don’t know how that person dodged, but how did these women react so fast!” Sun Xu suddenly felt a bead of cold sweat on his forehead.
Not only had his plan gone awry, but even the chance to adapt had been blocked by the opponent. The “divide and conquer” strategy he had anticipated now became the sole barrier separating him from the Mother Spider…
“This time we’re on the ground, you can’t possibly run anymore, right? Unless you can dig underground directly.” Xia Na suddenly chuckled and said, “As long as you think you have that chance.”
Four pairs of eyes stared at him simultaneously, and Sun Xu certainly didn’t believe he had such a chance… Especially the girl in front of him; every move, even a mere change in expression, seemed to be completely watched by her. This feeling undoubtedly brought him immense pressure, and the worst part was, it indicated that he might find it very difficult to break through…
“Looks like you’re planning a four-on-one, huh?” Sun Xu suddenly raised his voice, watching his surroundings warily as he spoke.
“Did you ever think about going one-on-four?” Xia Na replied with hidden meaning.
Sun Xu was momentarily stunned; his face grew even darker.
“Since you haven’t forgotten your own companions, don’t forget we’ve got quite a few people on our side too. Let me count…besides us and Sausage, there are nine more! There’s a madman, there’s-“
“Hey!” Li Yalin quickly cut off Yu Shiran.
Nine people… When Yu Shiran was selling out her teammates, she so candidly included even people like Skinny Monkey and the Pilot, members with no combat ability whatsoever…
“Nine?! That’s right, counting carefully, it should be nine! Did she just slip up? Madman? Anyone called that must be pretty strong, right? Must be one of those people from before… They’ve recovered their strength that quickly? Judging by what they’re saying, when they were blocking me, those people were already going after He Zhen and the others…” Sun Xu’s expression changed instantly, and in his mind, all the information began to click into place. But the clearer things became, the heavier his heart sank.
Now, the ones overwhelming them with numbers had actually become this group of Survivors…
“You really are ruthless, aren’t you… You know very well, right? With those people’s abilities, they’re not a match for us at all. So what you really wanted wasn’t to call for reinforcements, but to bring them over and use them as human bombs, isn’t it?” Xia Na said with a touch of mockery.
Sun Xu was silent for two seconds, then suddenly his eyes grew cold, a cruel look flashing across his face.
“Detonate!”
With a snap of his fingers, in the distance came the sound of screams.
But after listening for a moment, Sun Xu’s expression turned gloomy: “You tricked me?”
“Not quite. We didn’t say a single false word. We just didn’t expect you to be so cooperative.” Xia Na dropped her smile too, her tone icy.
“Damn it!”
Sun Xu’s face twisted with changing emotions. He hadn’t expected to be played so thoroughly by these two minors…
They’d only revealed a little information, and he’d been so eager to turn the tables…
One miscalculation after another-clearly it was wearing on his nerves.
But after taking two deep breaths, Sun Xu actually raised his head and smiled: “Since they’re all going to die anyway, does it matter if it’s by my hand or by yours? Even if I didn’t manage to blow up your people, it doesn’t matter. I wonder if those well-fed Spiders all over the place can handle them? Besides, keeping them alive this long wasn’t entirely useless…”
…”Detonate! Detonate! Detonate!”
Sun Xu’s expression didn’t change as he snapped his fingers several more times, not hesitating for a second. Such ruthlessness even made Xia Na frown.
“Ahhh…”
In the corner of the factory, in the blink of an eye, only two people remained.
He Zhen’s entire body was drenched in blood and entrails. He stared wide-eyed at the carnage around him, his mind almost completely blank.
Just like that… dead?
Weren’t they supposed to be decoys? Even pawns ought to serve some purpose, right?
Why had these people suddenly died-what was the price paid for that?
The other person was completely terrified, trembling violently as he looked at the bits and pieces that had landed on him. Only a breath ago, someone had exploded right in front of his eyes…
“I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die! Didn’t you say that as long as we behaved, you wouldn’t kill us? Ahhh-!” He suddenly let out a shriek and dashed toward the exit.
He Zhen still stood where he was, as if he hadn’t heard a thing… Suddenly, with a muffled “puff,” a splash of warm blood sprayed across his face…
That person had only managed two steps before turning into a puddle of plasma… The Spiders crawling out from his body instantly devoured the fragments until nothing was left. Standing amidst the blood and countless Spiders, He Zhen had already lost the ability to think…
Once all the remains on the floor were gone, those Spiders suddenly swarmed toward the only survivor left-He Zhen. They quickly crawled all over his body, then poured into him one after another. As the Spiders on the surface disappeared, He Zhen’s body began to swell bit by bit. Strangely, though, not a drop of blood leaked from his body.
At that moment, He Zhen finally snapped out of his terror, but before he could react, what he saw was even more horrifying.
“Ah…” As soon as He Zhen opened his mouth, a torrent of Spiders surged inside. His pupils dilated, and retching noises escaped his throat. On his neck, the outlines of Spiders began to bulge out one by one, and then, his whole body started to swell…
