Lin Qiao took back the fire, then leaped off the tree and landed before the big one. The creature was so huge that she had to raise her head just to see its mouth.

Roar…
 ‘Would you like to follow my lead?’

Lin Qiao talked to the creature with the zombie language, but had no idea why it understood zombie roars. Perhaps, all mutated animals understood zombie roars.

Hooo…
The underground creature moved its butt backward, then obediently lowered is head. A stream of bloody scent came out of its nose.
Lin Qiao moved backward slightly.



Roar…
The big one roared at Lin Qiao with a low voice. However, she had no idea what it meant.
It understood her language while she did not understand its… It was like having a dog. The dog could understand the human language, yet the human couldn’t understand the dog’s words.
Lin Qiao looked at the creature, not knowing what to say.

Roar… roar…
 ‘Nod if I’m right, shake your head if I’m wrong.’

That was the only way for her to communicate with the creature at the moment.

Em…
The big one quickly nodded.

Roar? Roar?
 ‘Do you not want to die? Do you want to follow my lead?’


Hoo… roar…
The big one nodded very quickly and moved further backward. At last, its butt thudded against a tree.
As a result, the tree was rustled loudly. The tree was super strong, yet it was shaken as the big one bumped against it slightly, reflecting how strong it was.
Clearly, the big one had suffered a life threat from Lin Qiao. It was weakened largely, and was no longer strong enough to protect itself. It planned to hide in the cave to heal.


The man with thunder harmed it severely, and now the zombie with a devouring power showed up in its cave with a strong intent of killing toward it. The creature perceptively sensed the life-threatening danger.
As a level-eight underground creature, it had very sharp sensations. So, it surrendered to Lin Qiao without hesitation in order to survive.
As she said, it did not want to die! It was so afraid of death!
Yes, it was big, but not very brave. Otherwise, it would not use its life-saving skill to escape from that lightning man.
Earlier on, in order to release that mysterious light, the creature used the energy which was saved for boosting its strength. So, it could not enter the super-strong state again before it regained its energy.
Otherwise, how could it possibly run so desperately away from Lin Qiao back in the cave and end up being stuck in the tunnel?
It was stuck in the tunnel because the smell of the root messed with its mind. That was why it acted a little abnormally under her attacks.
The mysterious light was a skill that the creature had newly attained when it broke into level-eight, and was highly energy-consuming. Thankfully, it was effective. At least, the light was able to transfer the energy that could drive the creature crazy into its enemy’s body.
For the creature itself, the energy would only boost its strength, but for its enemies, it would also drive them mentally crazy. Therefore, the enemies who were exposed to the light would all lose their minds and become uncontrollable.
Looking at the creature, Lin Qiao found it quite different from before. So she waved at it and roared,
Roar…
 ‘Come over, lower your head.’


The big one hesitated for a second, then inched its way toward Lin Qiao as it lowered its chin and gently reached its head toward her. Meanwhile, she continued roaring at it. ‘You want to follow me, fine! But, you have to listen to my words. If you disobey, the thing inside you will eat you.’

She hadn’t used her zombie language for long. So, she felt a little strange after making a few roars. How come the big one could understand the zombie language but not the human language?

Roar… er…
The big one immediately nodded at her. It understood what she meant by the thing inside its body; that was the fire. The fire had quieted down, but hadn’t left its body yet. It was still threatening its life.

Roar…
Lin Qiao gave it another roar. ‘Don’t worry, it won’t hurt you now! But, if you do something wrong, it will devour your energy.’


Roar…’ The big one nodded.

Roar…
 ‘From now on, you need my permission for whatever you’re going to do. You are not allowed to do the things that I didn’t tell you to.’


Roar…
The creature nodded again.
Lin Qiao nodded and roared. ‘Alright. Stand up. I’ll take you out.’

After saying that, she pressed a hand on the creature’s claw and brought it out of the space.
Once out, she found herself squeezed by the creature’s body and the collapsed tunnel. The tunnel was narrow already, and the huge creature had filled it up with its body.


At that moment, she was stuck between the creature’s arm and the wall.
Alright, was it now her turn to be stuck? Was it the karma for laughing at the big one?

Roar…
 ‘Raise your claw. You’re crushing me!’

Lin Qiao instantly gave it a roar.
The big one silently moved its claw away. It did think about if it should really crush her just like that. However, that didn’t seem to be easy. Besides, if it failed, the consequences would be serious! So, it moved its arm forward at last.
Lin Qiao made a way out and looked around. The tunnel on the other side had collapsed already, so they had no choice but to head back. As the two of them walked to the entrance of the tunnel, a huge group of lower-leveled underground creatures looked at Lin Qiao with confusion, then turned to their leader.
If they had eyes, their eyes would certainly be filled with question marks. But, they had no eyes, so they could only silently face the level-eight creature and Lin Qiao.
Why was their leader standing peacefully together with the invader?
The group of underground gorillas twitched their noses to smell the two. They were really in peace…
Since the big one had promised to follow her head, the underground creature crisis could be considered as solved. But still, Lin Qiao was a little worried. So, she continued threatening the creature.



Roar… roar… roar…
 ‘You are not allowed to go to the surface unless you have my permission. If you want to go out there for hunting, I’ll take you to a hunting ground. Do you understand me?’

Wasn’t there a rat nest in the Southwest? That was the hunting ground she talked about. She planned to guide the underground creatures there. With a sufficient source of food, those creatures would no longer drool at the people in her base. That way, both the rat problem and the safety issue of her base could be solved.

Errrr…
The big one immediately sat on the ground and put both legs before its belly as it nodded obediently. Meanwhile, the other underground creatures were utterly confused.
Lin Qiao happily patted the big one’s claw, then said goodbye to it and also told it to rest well.
The big one wore a bitter face. Who turned the cave into a mess? It was resting before she came!
