Chapter 39: Strange Communication

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
Xie Dong lowered his head and saw the cap of the pen pinned on the edge of his pocket. He paused briefly, then quickly understood Lin Qiao’s meaning.
Then he took out the pen along with the small notepad in his pocket, but found that all the pages were wet and stuck together.
“Roar?” Looking at the wet note pages, Lin Qiao roared at him.
‘What about your power?’ she asked
She knew that Xie Dong had the fire power, but since he was a zombie now, she didn’t know if his power still remained the same.
Xie Dong understood Lin Qiao’s meaning once he heard her. Meanwhile, he realized that he didn’t know what had happened to his power yet. He hadn’t thought of it until she reminded him.
Thinking that, he slightly raised a hand and supinated his palm. On the other side, Lin Qiao also watched him with curiosity as he raised his hand with his eyes closed, seeming to be sensing something.
Puff!
They didn’t see any red flame, but a spark blasted from his palm, turning into a wisp of smoke and quickly dissipating in the air.
Lin Qiao and Xie Dong both were a little speechless on seeing that. Judging by what had happened, the situation wasn’t too bad. A spark had burst out at least, which meant that his power wasn’t gone completely.
However, right after the smoke disappeared from Xie Dong’s palm, Lin Qiao saw the tips of his fingernails turn fiery red, although the redness faded away soon. After that, his clothes were quickly dried by his body temperature.
His body was icy-cold just a while ago, but right now, it was burning hot, and yet he didn’t feel uncomfortable at all.
Lin Qiao quickly walked up to him, took the notepad from his hand, and put it on his other palm which was still smoky. Then, she raised a hand toward him, signaling him to try it again.
Xie Dong hesitated a little. He couldn’t control the heat of his body anymore or even start a fire. He didn’t know if this would work or not.
“Roar!” Lin Qiao sensed his hesitation, so she impatiently gave him a roar.‘Hurry up!’ she said.
Xie Dong couldn’t resist her order, so he immediately tried to concentrate the heat of his entire body onto his hand.
In less than two seconds, Lin Qiao abruptly reached out and grabbed away the notepad from his palm. After that, another puffing noise could be heard, followed by another wisp of smoke rising up.
By that moment, the notepad in Lin Qiao’s hand had already dried up.
If she hadn’t seen so clearly and moved so swiftly, this notepad would have started burning in his palm within the next second.
Xie Dong looked at his own hand sullenly without knowing what to say. His power had actually been reduced to this. He was used to having a strong power, so he found this current state extremely frustrating.
Lin Qiao didn’t care how he felt for the time being. She took the pen which had also been soaked by the water, and drew a few lines on a piece of paper. After trying and finding that the pen was still usable, she immediately wrote down a few lines and showed them to him.
‘My name is Lin Qiao. You’re in my space now. That zombie leader is still waiting outside, so neither of us can go out yet. Is there something you want to do?’
Reading her handwriting, he found it to be sharp and strong, with every character seeming to contain a blade or sword. He gazed at his hands in a daze for a moment, and after she handed the paper to him, he finally gave a response.
A trace of murderous hate flashed across Xie Dong’s eyes. He wanted to kill those who had betrayed him.
Lin Qiao sensed his thoughts and quickly wrote down some more lines.
‘Go out and kill them if that’s what you want. You now look just like a human being anyway. As long as you don’t speak, the others won’t know that you’re already dead. The level-five zombie outside may have lost interest in you by now.’
Reading the last sentence, Xie Dong felt speechless. Before he could react, Lin Qiao wrote down another sentence.
‘But of course, we don’t know if it will kill you and snack on your zombie nucleus, as it’s clearly angry.’
Xie Dong really didn’t know what to say after reading that.
At this moment, Lin Qiao suddenly pressed her hand onto his shoulder, then both of them disappeared from her space. In the next moment, she reappeared in the same spot without the latter.
And at that very same moment, Xie Dong was stunned to find himself alone in a different place within the blink of an eye.
Damn! He had been thrown out by the female zombie! She had left him here alone… to face a terrifying level-five zombie!
Looking at the familiar red-eyed zombie which flashed out from not too far away, Xie Dong even wanted to go back and give Lin Qiao a bite.
‘Damn it! Why did she throw me out alone? To feed the zombie leader? The zombie leader doesn’t even want to eat me anymore! She threw me out for the zombie leader to torture, didn’t she?’
Even though he wanted to go out of her space to find the traitorous b*stards and take revenge, he absolutely didn’t want to be out here right now! Looking at the zombie leader who was already flying at him, Xie Dong even began to scream in his heart.
The zombie leader rushed over at him but stopped a short distance away. It stared at him with a confused expression, its pair of eyes sparkling with an evil and wild red light.
Xie Dong was frightened when the zombie leader approached him, He took a few steps backward but dared not to turn and run. Because its vibe was even stronger than Lin Qiao’s and had been oppressing him firmly, he couldn’t even generate the slightest urge to resist and run.
This was a suppression of power from a higher-level existence to a lower-level one.
If Xie Dong had known that he was being thrown out by Lin Qiao as a bait, he might really have given her a bite.
At that same moment, Lin Qiao was squatting by the lake, her eyes closed to observe the situation outside. Seeing the zombie leader rush to Xie Dong but stop at a short distance away, she sighed slightly in relief.
It seemed that the zombie leader had rushed out just now only because it smelled her. However, when it saw that it was Xie Dong and noted that he no longer had the aroma of edible human beings, having become a zombie just like itself, it paused with a slight confusion. Even its aggression had been tempered considerably.
It also knew that any human being who was bitten or scratched by zombies but wasn’t eaten immediately would become one of their kind in half a day.
However, this former human being in front of it seemed to have transformed too quickly! Not long ago, he smelled delicious like human flesh, unlike the current him that smelled just like any other zombie. He was at a very low-level, so the zombie leader wasn’t even interested in his zombie nucleus.
The zombie leader slowly walked over and circled around Xie Dong. It found his vibe to be a little weird and couldn’t tell why, but it didn’t care about that at the moment.
It was looking for that particular strange vibe which belonged to the one who had snatched its food. Of course, it didn’t know that the one it was looking for had been watching its every move with her eyes closed.
After making a few circles and finding no trace of Lin Qiao or her vibe, the zombie leader was irritated. It abruptly turned around and slapped Xie Dong with its claw, sending him flying through the air.
Bang!
Xie Dong had no time to react before he found himself flying in the air. As he thudded against the ground, he heard the zombie leader burst into a series of furious roars.
“Roarrrr!”
After that, the zombie leader turned around and suddenly jumped very high, stepping on the wall in front of it and leaping upward. Soon, it jumped on top of the twenty story building which was next to the one it had climbed just now and disappeared.
