Chapter 863: Lin Jing’s Situation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After being thrown out of Mongols Base, Lin Jing was luckily saved by some other people. She had lost her hope when she realized that she was thrown out of the base actually. The people who saved her was a grade-two hunter group. Those people were leaving Mongols Base for somewhere else.
The group had about twenty men, and were good people. They saved her and protected her, bringing her all the way to Xinjiang. Later on, she followed them to Green Mountain Base.
The second apocalypse happened the next day. Many died, and some turned into zombies. Green Mountain Base only had a small number of people. And now, that number had decreased further.
People got through the first ten days in panic, then started to face the problems that came one after another. They needed food and places to live. Yet, the old Green Mountain Base had been flattened by the leader of Green Mountain Base. No one could stop that crazy man.
The weather in Northwest China was still cold and awful in April and May, while Lin Jing had difficulty in adapting to the weather. So, she always fell sick, and her condition grew worse and worse.
She walked into the room, but none of the others in the room looked at her. She dropped her head and quietly moved to a corner, sitting down on the floor that was paved with cardboard.
She curled and put her arms around her knees to shrink herself in her dirty and ragged cotton-padded jacket.
The others all stayed cold-faced. They didn’t talk to each other, but quietly stayed where they were.
Those people had been hungry for many days. Each of them was only provided with one bottle of water and one steamed bread per day. The food they had was found by Hu Ba and his people. They carefully sneaked into Green Mountain Base and avoided that crazy man to search for stored food.
Currently, the temporary base was in an extreme shortage of food.
The soil had died, and the stored food was running out. Lan Lu and Chang Qingqing had to figure out a solution before the stored food was gone for good. If they failed, their only choice would be leaving the place to another base and see if there was any luck
“How many days can our food last?” Lan Lu scratched his scalp and asked with a deep frown.
“According to the current consumption rate, a month tops,” said Chang Qingqing, also with a bitter look.
Hearing that, the others all wore a grim look.
…
Lin Kui and his friends had been following the human scent to Green Mountain Base. They paused from time to time, and climbed onto tall buildings, trees, or mountains to sense the surrounding scents.
Meanwhile, Wu Chengyue signed the agreement with Lin Qiao the next day after he arrived at All Beings Base. He had turned back normal. As for what he was thinking, nobody knew.
Standing by the roadside near All Beings Base’s farm and looking at the thriving sprouts in the fields on both sides of the road, Wu Chengyue wanted so much to rob All Beings Base for that farm. He would do it if it weren’t for the zombie lady.
He did not know that the farm was saved by the lake water from Lin Qiao’s space. He thought the soil contained some materials itself that protected it from the recent virus pollution.
The soil had been recently turned, and those sprouts were newly planted. Clearly, the old crops on the farm were harmed as well.
“Alright. Now that you have seen our farm, can you please leave?” Lin Qiao noticed the glow in his eyes and roughly guessed out what he was thinking. Under the current circumstances, anyone who saw that farm that was able to grow healthy crops would want to glom it. She would want the same.
Wu Chengyue glanced at her and responded with a faint smile, “Chief Lu, don’t forget what you have promised us.”
Lin Qiao pressed her lips together and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t! Chief Wu, when do you plan to leave?”
Since the agreement had been signed, he should leave as soon as possible!
Wu Chengyue said smilingly, “Em, I have no plan to go back for now. I think I’ll be lingering here for a while.”
Lin Qiao paused briefly with surprise, then looked at him coldly and said, “Chief Wu, don’t you have a lot of work to do back in your base? It’s inappropriate for you to leave the work behind, isn’t it?”
Currently, each base had suffered some damages that were caused by the new zombies or maniacal superpowered people. Many areas needed to be reconstructed. Apart from that, the survivors needed to be comforted, as they had all been frightened by the sudden death of the others. Also, the superpowered members of each base had to be kept under close watch, in case they lost their minds suddenly and caused more damage.
Not to mention the food crisis. Wu Chengyue surely had tons of work to do. However, he now clearly planned to stay in Lin Qiao’s place without solving the problems in his base.
“I’m not in a rush, so why will you be? Besides, I’m not the only leader of Sea City Base. Since I’m out here for work, those two are handling the other works. Isn’t that normal?” Wu Chengyue mildly raised his eyebrows, looking at Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao somehow felt that his smile had some hidden meanings.
“Em, it’s normal indeed. Suit yourself then. I got to go.” She shrugged one shoulder, then turned and got onto her car. After watching her leave, Wu Chengyue sat in his own car.
As Lin Qiao returned to her office, Xie Dong came to her with the news from the rat nest. “I think those rats were scared out of the ground. Animals are more sensitive than humans after all,” Lin Qiao read the brief written report and then said.
The report explained the expansion of the rat group, their moving speed, number, and the changes in their power levels.
“Didn’t you see any level-six rat? The strongest ones are only at level-five?” After reading the numbers in the report, Lin Qiao raised her head and glanced at Xie Dong, who was sitting on the other side of her desk.
Xie Dong nodded expressionlessly and said, “Not yet. There’re plenty of level-five ones though.”
Lin Qiao glanced at the paper again. Over a hundred level-five rats were found.
She blinked. It was impossible for not even one level-six rat to exist among all those rats. There might even be a level-seven one.
“One maniacal rat can bite a couple of other same-level rats to death,” said Xie Dong. He recalled what he saw during the past few days when he was observing those rats. Those red-eyed ones were highly destructive and aggressive.
A crazy level-five rat attacked the other rats like a fierce boar.
The level-five rats were even larger than pigs, their teeth and claws harder than steel. With one swing, the level-five rat clawed a level-four rat to death, and with one bite, it crushed the skull of another level-five rat.
That level-five rat caused the rat group a little chaos. Later on, about twenty level-five rats bit it to death together.
After that, those rats that were killed by that crazy level-five rat were soon eaten up by the other rats. Those rats wouldn’t waste those dead bodies. They ate them, as they were short of food as well.
