[Congratulations to player 'Lin Mo' for successfully awakening your special ability 'Psychic Power'.]

psychic power?

The moment Lin Mo saw those four words, two words instantly popped into his mind: Sword Immortal.

Although it's an exaggeration, there are indeed many similarities between mental power and the cultivator's ability to manipulate objects.

Using his mental power to control everything within a certain range, he can attack head-on, ambush, fight one-on-one, or fight a group of people. He can both attack and defend. Not only is his combat power incredibly strong, but this ability is also a versatile and convenient little helper in life.

but......

Although the psychic ability is powerful, its shortcomings in the early stages are also obvious. The controllable range is too small, with a straight-line distance of only ten meters. Moreover, it consumes a lot of mental energy. This means that Lin Mo not only needs to practice precision to conserve his mental energy to the maximum extent and improve his mental energy attribute, but also needs to continuously evolve his ability potential to increase the control range. Otherwise, it will be a useless ability.

"Targeted upgrades to special abilities cost 50 Highway Coins each, while evolving special ability potential costs 100 Highway Coins each. Furthermore, psychic abilities aren't suitable for head-on combat in the early stages; you also need to improve speed and agility, and buy a few throwing knives..."

What happened to the survival game?

The thought that this damn highway world, just like his original money-obsessed world, required money for everything, gave Lin Mo a huge headache and made his head buzz.

Looking at the countdown to the fog, there were still nearly four hours left. Considering it was still the middle of the night and collecting supplies at a gas station in the dark might be dangerous due to limited visibility, Lin Mo decided to take this opportunity to rest a bit more. So he put another batch of supplies on the shelves, set an alarm, gave Pu Mengnan some instructions, and then closed his eyes to catch up on sleep.

Ring ring ring~~~

When the alarm rang, Lin Mo woke up to find it was already dawn. He first checked the supplies that had been put up for sale and found that he had earned more than 100 highway coins in a few hours. Satisfied, he got up and went to relieve himself.

Afterwards, Lin Mo and Pu Mengnan, who had also woken up, ate something together before restarting the vehicle and driving towards the gas station not far away.

"Nannan, you can stay in the car, you don't need to come down with me..."

Compared to yesterday when he was thinking of using Pu Mengnan as a human shield, Lin Mo, having awakened his psychic powers, naturally no longer needed to do that despicable thing.

As for moving supplies?

Now that's Lin Mo's specialty, he naturally doesn't need to drag Pu Mengnan, that weak woman, into doing the hard labor anymore.

Before getting off the bus, Lin Mo spent 50 highway coins from the armory in the bus commander's shop to choose a diamond throwing knife. After all, although pistols are powerful and have a long range, they are also noisy when fired. They are convenient to use, but they are also a double-edged sword. He used to use them for self-defense because he had no other choice. Now that Lin Mo can control objects, he will naturally choose to use a more silent method.

He first checked through the car window to make sure there was no threat outside before opening the car door and getting out. Just like yesterday, he didn't rush to refuel until he had checked the area around the convenience store and eliminated any danger.

But this time, before he even got close to the convenience store, he saw what appeared to be shadowy figures moving inside through the window. However, since it was only just dawn, the dark and gloomy store was impossible to see clearly from a distance.

As the saying goes, skill breeds daring. So what if there are zombies in the shop? Why would we turn down a piece of meat that's already in our mouths?

Moreover, resources are now the key to Lin Mo's wealth, and with his superpowers, he has even more confidence to take risks.

So even when he discovered that there might be zombies or other mutated creatures in the store, Lin Mo did not retreat but advanced, quietly getting closer and closer.

Perhaps it was because the awakening of his superpowers had enhanced his five senses, but although the store was dark, Lin Mo gradually made out the situation inside: four human zombies, a zombie dog, and a zombie python coiled on the shelf...

No wonder many tank commanders complained last night about how difficult it was to collect supplies. Who wouldn't be intimidated by this lineup?

Even though Lin Mo now had the means, he didn't dare to be careless. So he used his telekinesis to control the flying knife and let it slip through the crack in the door into the shop. Who should he target first?

Zombie dogs, of course.

Logically, the zombie python should be the biggest threat, but precisely because it's the most threatening and the hardest to kill, the second biggest threat, the zombie dog, must be dealt with first. After all, compared to human zombies, the zombie dog is much faster and stronger. If the zombie python isn't killed silently and the zombie dog is awakened, things will get interesting...

Although it was his first time using telekinesis to control the throwing knife, and he was a little rusty and couldn't perfectly control its speed and trajectory, the error wasn't too big. The space in the store also gave him a chance to try and fail. Soon, Lin Mo controlled the throwing knife to bypass the zombie python and the rows of shelves, hovering it above the zombie dog. The whole process was very quiet and didn't disturb the zombies in the store. Even so, Lin Mo still saw the zombie python lift its eyelids, as if it had noticed the slight sound of the throwing knife rubbing against the air. Fortunately, it didn't seem to care and quickly closed its eyes again to continue sleeping.

Do zombies sleep?

Lin Mo neither knew nor cared.

After turning the throwing knife around and suspending it upside down above the zombie dog's head, Lin Mo didn't hesitate at all and directly controlled the throwing knife to plunge it downwards.

Whoosh~~~

With a long whistling sound, the throwing knife pierced the zombie dog's head almost instantly. Before it could react, it stumbled and collapsed to the ground.

This immediately startled all the zombies in the store. Whether it was the zombie python or the four human zombies, they all rushed towards the source of the sound. Lin Mo didn't waste any words. He immediately controlled the throwing knife that was already embedded in the cement floor. Using the shelf as cover, he slithered across the floor, drew an arc, and circled around to the back of the zombie python. He then charged up his strength and stabbed it fiercely towards the huge head.

Whoosh~~~

But whether it was because it missed its target or because the zombie python sensed something, it tilted its head, and the throwing knife only grazed its jaw. At the same time, the zombie python saw the throwing knife's presence.

Roar~~~

Sure enough, the zombie python instantly flew into a rage. With a roar, the four dumbfounded human zombies immediately ran towards the glass door of the convenience store.

"Holy crap, it's an intelligent zombie! It actually guessed I was launching a sneak attack outside?"

Lin Mo wasn't stupid, so he immediately understood the zombie python's intention: it was directing its minions to attack his true form.

Now that he knew the zombie python's intentions, Lin Mo was not about to give it a chance to threaten him. So he immediately used his telekinesis to control the throwing knives to chase down the four human zombies who came to deal with him.

Seeing this, the zombie python immediately gave chase, opening its blood-red maw to try and bite the throwing knife, clearly trying to buy time for its underling.

However......

Just as it opened its mouth wide, the throwing knife suddenly turned and plunged into its mouth...

Roar~~~
