The water trickled into Ling Ling’s mouth. At first, it kept spilling out, but after Lin Qiao tried a few more times, her subconscious seemed to wake up and she slowly began to swallow the water.
As the child had finally drunk some water, Lin Qiao exhaled a breath of relief that she had been holding in all this time.
The child took a few more sips, after which Lin Qiao couldn’t make her drink any more water. She threw away the grass leaf, picked up the child, and walked away. Finding a dry spot on the grass, she laid the girl down along with the blanket.
After setting the child down, she put her palm on her chest to feel her heartbeat. The child’s heartbeat was still very weak, but stable nevertheless, and without the frightening irregularity that she had felt before.
Lin Qiao thought about what to do and decided that the best course of action was to send this child back to her father. She thought of it as making amends for the bad things done by the former owner of her body. It was dangerous and inconvenient for the child to be with her anyway.
As a zombie, she had an instinctive hunger deep down for living human beings, so she worried that she might lose control someday and eat this child.
As the child had been found, she now needed to find the group of people and send the child back secretly without alerting them.
It seemed to be quite simple, but the problem was that she was a zombie, and those people would attack her as soon as she approached them. Fortunately, she now looked nothing like that woman with heavy makeup. Otherwise, every single one of those people would try to kill her on sight, wouldn’t they?
Just as Lin Qiao prepared to leave her space and try finding the child’s father, the child, who had her eyes closed and had been asleep the whole time, twitched her eyelids slightly and then slowly opened them without any warning.
Lin Qiao was busy preparing to leave and didn’t notice that the child had woken up.
“Ahhhhhh!” All of a sudden, a high-pitched scream gave Lin Qiao one hell of a scare, making her jump. All the fine hairs on her body stood straight up as she bared her teeth and leaped to her feet like a startled cat, looking at the source of this scream with her face alert and filled with fear.
She saw the child already sitting up while looking at her with a face that was a picture of fear, and bright eyes that were filled with panic.
Lin Qiao didn’t know what to say.
On the other side, Wuyue Ling’s had a confused look in her eyes when she saw Lin Qiao react that way.
However, in the next second, she suddenly realized that this creature standing in front of her was a zombie, a human-eating monster. Her dad had told her that these monsters liked to eat human beings, especially children!!!
Wu Yueling became horrified right away, fixing her wide-open eyes on Lin Qiao. She wanted to scream and cry, but she hadn’t noticed that she couldn’t utter a single sound anymore, and her body had become uncontrollably stiff.
‘She’ll eat me! She’ll definitely eat me!’ she screamed in her head.
Once Lin Qiao recovered from her own scare, she patted her chest with her claws to calm herself without realizing that, in fact, she no longer had a heart.
‘She scared the life out of me! This little kid almost gave me a heart attack… My god!’
After patting her chest a few times, Lin Qiao suddenly thought of something.
‘Damn it! Damn it! I’m a zombie! How could a child possibly scare the life out of me!’
She raised up her head and looked at the child. The girl was staring back at her with two big wide-open eyes. Her body was stiffened, and pupils were shrinking and dilating. Lin Qiao felt that the girl would pass out immediately if she got any closer. However, before this thought had even faded from her mind, the little girl trembled by the sight of her face which was covered with wounds, then fell on the ground with her eyes rolling back.
‘See? My face has scared her senseless… Wait, is my face really so scary?’ Lin Qiao wondered.
She walked over to check on the child and found that her whole face had taken on a bluish tint. Apparently, she had been scared quite badly.
Lin Qiao placed the child’s body into a comfortable position, letting her sleep comfortably in the blanket.
Then, she stood up and turned around while saying one word silently.
‘Out’.
A bright flash appeared before her eyes. When she could finally see again, she found herself out of the space as expected, standing in the same spot where she had entered the space from.
She looked at the scattered zombies around her and realized that they could somehow understand her orders. She had also been faintly sensing these zombies’ thoughts, which were comprising of just one phrase—’So hungry!’
She too was incredibly hungry, more so than ever as she had been staying with the little girl the whole time. Smelling the girl’s enticing aroma made her want to bite the little thing so badly.
Beyond that, she was a little confused when she thought about the rioting of zombies that happened earlier.
At the time, she was just thinking that if only those zombies would all rush at the three, she would have a chance to lose herself in the crowd. What she didn’t expect was that the zombie mob really would charge at the three. She didn’t know for sure if they heard and understood her order, and yet, the fact that more and more zombies were attracted to that area seemed to suggest that they did.
She turned to a wandering zombie near her, fixed her eyes on it, and murmured silently, ‘Look at me… Look at me… Look at me…’
As expected, the male zombie that Lin Qiao was staring at stopped shuffling forward, slowly turned his head back to look at her, then turned his entire body around as his gray, half rolled up eyes stared at her in confusion.
‘Walk over…’ Lin Qiao kept staring at him and said silently.
Next thing she knew, the zombie began swaying toward her.
When that happened, Lin Qiao was truly shocked because the male zombie was really able to sense her thoughts and follow her orders. Had she evolved into a high-level zombie already? Was that why she was able to control these unintelligent zombies?
As she was thinking about this, the male zombie had swayed to where she was, then stopped and looked at her with confusion.
Lin Qiao glanced at him, then waved him off.
‘Go away.’
After receiving her command, the male zombie turned around and left, still confused.
Lin Qiao then performed the same test on another zombie and got the same result. She was now certain that she had been upgraded, although she didn’t know how many levels she had risen, neither was she clear about the zombie ranking system.
After confirming that she was able to control other zombies, she turned around without further deliberations and searched through Lu Tianyu’s memories for the location of the building in which she had raped the man.
After confirming the direction, she promptly headed that way.
She didn’t know if the man would still be there, but she believed that he would be nearby. He must be searching for his daughter near that area for sure.
It was night time now, perfect for her activities.
She ran in that direction like a nimble shadow in the darkness of the night. She ran quite fast, but still didn’t feel tired at all. Two hours later, she came to the front of that building, but didn’t detect any human vibes or see any humans.
She stood in an obscure corner and called a zombie over, trying to communicate mentally with it.
‘Are there human beings in this place?’ she asked silently.
The zombie looked at her with confusion, failing to comprehend her meaning, and seeming to have completely no idea what she was talking about.
“Roar!”
‘Human beings?’ Lin Qiao asked which ended up emitting out in the form of a growl.
The zombie continued looking at her confusedly, giving absolutely no response.
“Roarrrr?”
‘Have you seen any human being?’ she asked again.
The zombie couldn’t look any more confused at this point.
Lin Qiao was speechless, having no idea how to proceed forward from this point.
