Chapter 823: They’re Here For You
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Chief, maybe you don’t believe me, but you can go and see for yourself.” Knowing that Gu Yikang didn’t believe what he said, Xu Changmu said to him.
Gu Yikang paused briefly. Seeing that Xu Changmu didn’t seem to be joking, he asked uncertainly, “Is that real?”
Did that kind of zombie crowd really exist? It sounded more like a crowd under the control of a higher-leveled zombie.
Xu Changmu nodded and said, “We know what we’ve seen. As the motorcade moved in, those zombies moved back to where they were. We didn’t even see the wall of the new base.”
“Keeping zombies? They really have the courage to do that? Weren’t those Earth Dragon people scared? They just went in like that?” Gu Yikang wore a serious look and asked with a frown.
“I think our scouts have been killed by the people from the new base. After all, they definitely don’t want other people to know about those zombies,” said Xu Changmu.
“Did anyone see you?” Gu Yikang said while a cold look suddenly emerged in his eyes.
Xia Yushen shook his head confidently and said, “No. My people didn’t get close. I was the only one who approached them. Except for Jian Shengtong and Xia Yushen, no one could possibly see us.”
He saw Yun Meng and the other zombies who were sitting on car roofs. However, as none of them had a strong vibe, he didn’t pay much attention to them.
What he didn’t know was that Yun Meng and her zombies all had their vibes restrained. Only the people who were much stronger than them and some other zombies could sense how powerful they really were.
Gu Yikang gave a wicked smile and said, “Interesting! Keep searching. We must dig out the secret of this base and the weakness of that woman.”
Since he learned that the Chief Lady from the new base had poison power, he told himself that he had to get her nucleus. Poison power was special and rare. People who possessed that power and managed to reach level-seven were rarely seen. Gu Yikang needed poison-powered nuclei; the higher the level, the more helpful it could be to him.
“My people have mingled in the group of Earth Dragon Base people. But, I think it’s gonna take them some efforts to deliver messages to us,” Xu Changmu nodded and said.
“There is no rush. We have time. She’s in the base, and she can’t run anywhere. Also… keep zombies? Hehe…” Gu Yikang tittered in a creepy tone.
Neither did Gu Yikang nor Xu Changmu notice that the plants surrounding them had been shaking slightly. No wind was blowing, yet the leaves shook from time to time and grasses twisted from side to side, as if those plants suddenly became conscious.
Hundreds of meters away from them in a wooded area, two zombies were hiding on a tree in the shades, staying quiet with their vibes restrained.
Zombie number five had her arms around a tree trunk and ear pressed against the rough tree bark to listen to the sound from the tree. Her dark eyes shone in the darkness with a green light.
Zombie number five was looking at her speechlessly. ‘Do you think that you’re holding a pillow? Can you please drop your legs and arms?’ —That was what he wanted to say to zombie number five.
Five seemed to have sensed Six’s thought, so she turned and gave him a glance. The world in her eyes was colorless, but she did see things very clearly. The male zombie wasn’t handsome, but had a well-featured face. After spending quite a while looking at his face, the female zombie was attracted by him unwittingly. His eyes were slender and sunken and lips pressed together, forming a serious-looking face.
Five wondered why didn’t she notice that Six was actually pretty good-looking. Well, if only he didn’t have that look in his eyes… He was looking at her like how people looked at idiots.
Five silently dropped her limbs from the tree, then gave Six a glare with discontentment.
Six expressionlessly turned his eyes away. In the next moment, they both had their expressions changed, then leaped off the tree and landed on the ground gently.
A dark figure was quietly standing under the tree.
“Chief!” The male zombie dropped his head slightly and said with a hoarse voice.
“Roar.” ‘Chief.’
The female zombie couldn’t speak yet. She hadn’t broken into level-six, so Lin Qiao didn’t fix her throat.
“What have you found?” Lin Qiao merged into the darkness and asked with a calm tone.
The male zombie glanced at the female zombie. She was the one who had been eavesdropping those people talking.
“Roar…” ‘They’re here for you.’
Said the female zombie to Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao knitted her brows. Why were those people here for her?
She thought for a moment, then said, “I’ll go and take a look. You guys get into the space.”
While speaking, she brought the two into the space, then came back out and turned invisible while sneaking toward the group of people.
She got close enough and confirmed that they were from Sky Fire Base.
Apart from Gu Yikang and Xu Changmu, she also saw about ten level-five people, ten superpowered squads, and nearly three-hundred soldiers.
Lin Qiao, of course, knew Gu Yikang. They had seen each other many times before. She knew that Gu Yikang coveted her Netherworld Fire all the time, and that his energy nucleus would also benefit her.
She was planning to first sort out the work in her base, then attack Sky Fire Base. She needed to bring Sky Fire Base down before Viney grew bigger. Unexpectedly, Gu Yikang had brought himself to her place before she made a move.
That was suicidal!
Lin Qiao gently put a hand on her lower abdomen; her belly was no longer flat.
Viney was right. She had indeed entered the phase of development. This time, she had slept for long, and Lin Qiao’s belly had finally started to grow. It wasn’t so obvious though. A jacket could perfectly cover it.
The invisible figure quietly approached Gu Yikang. Lin Qiao wasn’t able to read his mind, so she turned to Xu Changmu.
‘Find out the secrets about that base… Figure out that woman’s weakness… They are actually keeping zombies… They are the enemies of mankind…’
Lin Qiao read Xu Changmu’s mind, then gave a sneer.
As she thought, those people believed that all zombies should die, and that the people who made contact with zombies were evil. Anyone on the same side with zombies was the enemy of mankind. However, her Hades Base was destroyed by humans from three different bases, not zombies.
Was she an enemy of mankind? No! So, why did other human beings hurt her? Some humans were even more evil and crueler than zombies!
With that thought, Lin Qiao slightly dropped her eyes to hide the intention of killing which almost escaped her eyes. All of a sudden, she reached out a hand, accurately grasped Gu Yikang, and threw him into her space.
He and his people wanted to know her secrets, and she intended to tell them!
