My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 1037: Rejection Reaction

On the rooftop of the Rosen Company.

The area was cluttered with boxes of various sizes, each carefully covered with a layer of rainproof tarp.

As Ling Mo pushed open the door, he saw two figures sitting side by side on one of the tall, elongated boxes, their legs gently swinging back and forth in the air.

Despite the looming crisis, the atmosphere here seemed remarkably peaceful and serene…

“…Well, how should I put it? It’s not that it’s bad, but… it’s just not something I’m used to?” Yu Shiran was speaking softly, and from Ling Mo’s angle, he could see most of her figure. Black Silk was completely obscured by her, except for the occasional glimpse of long black hair being lifted by the wind.

“Figures…” Ling Mo sighed as he stood outside the door. Suddenly realizing that Black Silk had changed bodies, even for this fool, it was not an easy adjustment…

He was about to walk over to offer some comfort when the loli continued, “Or to put it bluntly… you were more pleasing to the eye when you were just a ball. That hairy look, doesn’t it remind you of a certain part of the human body? Although your current form resembles a human, you were always anthropomorphized before!”

“That’s not anthropomorphized at all! What kind of weird knowledge are you trying to impart to a dog-girl as a minor? And how much do you dislike Black Silk…”

“Oh…” replied a strange little girl’s voice.

“Oh, my foot! Why are you accepting that so easily? What kind of passive self-awareness is this… Wait a minute! Black Silk’s voice… she can speak now!”

When Black Silk first took control of this body, their communication was limited to writing. Now it seemed she had fully adapted to it…

But as Ling Mo excitedly walked over, he was once again taken aback… He had to blink hard to ensure he wasn’t experiencing any hallucination.

“What the heck?” He stared at Black Silk and Yu Shiran on the box, asking.

A zombie and a dog-girl exchanged glances, simultaneously tilting their heads in puzzlement…

“Stop pretending! I’m the one who should be surprised! I’m the one with the problem!” Ling Mo reached out and grabbed Black Silk by the back of her collar, lifting her up… The little creature, barely reaching his knee, dangled with her arms and legs, even blinking innocently…

Ling Mo pulled Black Silk closer, staring intently at it. “When I was covering for you… you didn’t look like this, did you? Did you switch bodies again? Hey, you’re my pet, after all. You can’t just change bodies on a whim. What does that make of all my efforts then…”

As he spoke, his gaze shifted to Black Silk’s neck. It was still wearing that shirt, looking as if it was completely enveloped by the fabric, with its hands hidden somewhere, let alone its neck.

“What are you trying to do?” Black Silk’s voice, though childlike, carried a distinct tone compared to a real child’s.

Ling Mo snorted and reached for its collar.

“Ling-Ge, um, the monster below…”

Just as Black Silk’s collar was pulled open, Ye Lian’s voice came from the doorway.

Ling Mo’s movements paused, but when he looked towards the door, Ye Lian silently stepped back and closed it with a click.

Yet, within a fraction of a second after the door shut, Ye Lian pushed it open slightly again, saying, “I… I didn’t see anything. I’ll… come back later.”

Click!

The door closed once more.

“Girl…” Ling Mo called out, hesitating for a moment.

What was wrong with her?

“What exactly are you trying to do…” Black Silk waved its arms.

Ling Mo snapped back to reality, looking at Black Silk’s neck and shoulders, then grabbed its soft arm.

It was still there… the massive blood-red centipede was still crawling on its body. Neither its shape nor color had changed at all.

“What’s going on?” Ling Mo asked, bewildered.

“Well, you should let me down first so I can get dressed! Such an inconsiderate man…”

“Enough! How does that make you a woman? You need at least fifteen more years!”

“Tsk… it was just an accident.”

Black Silk jumped back onto the box, its movements still somewhat awkward, but its jumping ability was remarkably strong. “After you distracted that monster, I found a way to escape… and coincidentally, I ran into Xiao Bai on the route I took.” Ŗ𝓪ƝŏᛒЁ𝙨

“How did you find that path?” Ling Mo asked curiously.

“With this body…” Black Silk pointed to its nose. “It’s unrestricted underground. And…” As it spoke, Black Silk’s hair suddenly floated up, flying like neat black ribbons. “See? My silver thread has merged with this hair, which means my Perception can remain active at all times.”

Ling Mo scrutinized the strands of hair closely and indeed noticed a faint silver glimmer among the black, though it was hard to spot under the sunlight.

“This body is really useful… It’s mostly devoid of consciousness, like a half-empty shell. Moreover, its evolved defense, combat, and recovery capabilities are incredibly strong. But most importantly, it’s this ability that matters. With this ability, my power will be significantly enhanced…” Black Silk closed its eyes, and under the curious gaze of Ling Mo and Yu Shiran, its cheeks began to flush.

Ling Mo noticed the centipede also turning redder, as if it might come to life at any moment… Perhaps its existence is akin to the gel in zombies, serving a similar purpose…

Two or three seconds later, Black Silk suddenly opened its eyes!

Ling Mo and Yu Shiran widened their eyes… It was clear that some change had occurred in Black Silk… After a quick scan, Ling Mo was certain that its ears… had become pointed…

Like dog ears…

“Does this greatly enhance the presence of a dog-girl?” Ling Mo couldn’t help but say after a moment of silence.

Yu Shiran thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

“Of course not!” Black Silk put its hands on its hips and said, “This is a transformation ability! Transformation! Whenever I want, I can freely alter any part of my body, even completely morph into another creature! That’s the real reason I wanted this body! Just imagine, once I can transform, I can move freely among Hellforged Monsters, zombie hordes, or humans! As a dog… uh, as your reconnaissance vanguard, having such an ability is quite convenient for you, isn’t it? And compared to those half-human, half-ghost types, the duration of this transformation ability is much longer! However…”

Before finishing the sentence, Black Silk flopped forward onto the box, its ears slowly retracting, panting heavily, “Phew… Right now, all my energy is used to maintain the color change in my eyes… Living among humans is really tough…”

“Your stamina is too weak! You can only change an ear or an eye; such transformation ability won’t let you infiltrate anywhere…” Ling Mo was initially surprised, but couldn’t help commenting upon hearing this.

“Phew… Phew… That’s because… I’m still young…” Black Silk continued, “I don’t know why, maybe due to poor compatibility… This body kept shrinking after I took control, eventually becoming… this size… Fortunately, it stopped shrinking further, otherwise… you’d have to carry an infant…”

“Rejection reaction?” Ling Mo asked.

“Something like that…”

Ling Mo rubbed his forehead thoughtfully and said, “So, your current strength isn’t enough to completely override this body’s instincts… Or, comparatively, your evolution level is weaker…”

“That’s about right…”

“Then…”

At that moment, the door was pushed open again. Ye Lian poked her head in and said, “They’re… catching up…”
