Lin Qiao thought that the old man’s throat and vocal cords could be fixed when he entered level-six, but that didn’t happen.
Xie Dong, the middle-aged male zombie, the zombie boy, and zombie number six had also become zombie kings. However, none of them could talk.
Lin Qiao rubbed her chin, trying to figure out why. Would they be able to talk when they entered level-seven, like what happened to Yun Meng? Why was Liu Jun able to talk at level-four?
Was it because of Viney’s power?
Lin Qiao had saved Lu Zhuofeng’s energy nuclei. She planned to absorb that nucleus together with Viney when the latter was awake. However, Viney’s sleeping time became longer and longer. Recently, she showed no sign of waking up.


She couldn’t absorb any energy when she was asleep.
After upgrading a large group of high-leveled zombies, Lin Qiao felt a little tired. The result was good though; it was worth the hard work.
Apart from the six level-six zombies that she took away from Mo Yan, she now had five zombie kings under her command. They were Xie Dong, Old Guo, the crack-mouthed boy, the middle-aged male zombie, and Zombie Number Six, who was also a male zombie.
The zombie boy’s broken jaw was surprisingly fixed a little when he upgraded.

Fortunately, you still have your jaw. It might not have regrown if you had lost it. I am able to fix your jaw, but I can’t help you regrow your bones!
Lin Qiao said delightfully while checking the boy’s jaw.
The zombie boy had been well-behaved the whole time. Like a good student, he followed every word that Lin Qiao said. His blood had been changed by Lin Qiao’s virus, and his level was raised. However, he still didn’t restore his human memory.
But, he seemed to become even more loyal and obedient than before. He accomplished every mission that Lin Qiao gave him perfectly!
For some reason, Old Guo always liked to joke with the boy zombie when he was doing something seriously. And then, the boy zombie would angrily attack him.
Like just now…

Roar…
 ‘You look ugly with your jaw hanging on your face. Why don’t you just take it off!’


The old man went behind Lin Qiao and bent over, looking at the zombie boy’s jaw before giving a roar.
The boy zombie was happy when Lin Qiao said that he still had his jaw, as if that was a compliment. However, on hearing the old man’s words, he lost his good mood.

Roar!
He bared his teeth and roared at the old man. He was nearly infuriated.

Old man, what does it have to do with you? Go away. Don’t always joke with him because he’s young. He’s a zombie king too! He can kick you’re as!
Lin Qiao rolled her eyes, then turned to wave the old man off.

Roar…
Old Guo shrugged, then turned and left with his back hunched, his hands clasped behind his body.
Lin Qiao turned back and saw the zombie boy holding his jaw with both hands, his face filled with confusion. Clearly, he took the old man’s words seriously.
The zombie boy always carried out missions carefully, and was a sensitive child.

Alright, it’s okay. I’ll fix your jaw. Ignore that bad old man,
Lin Qiao rubbed his hair.
The zombie boy immediately raised his head and looked at Lin Qiao expectantly.
In the coming days, Lin Qiao paid attention to the fence wall which was built more and more efficiently, and also spent time in the farmland in Mount Wu area. Pumpkins and potatoes had been planted, but not the other plants for the time being. The earth was washed and purified by Lin Qiao with the river water mixed with her lake water.


Those jobs were mostly done by Lu Tianyi and Liu Jun. Lin Qiao only needed to go there every day and provide them with lake water.
At the end of the first month in the sixth year after the apocalypse, Xie Dong went to Lin Qiao with a message.

Guess? I think someone released this message on purpose,
Lin Qiao said. She was sitting in her office behind her desk. On the desk was a pile of files and blueprints. Holding the piece of paper that Xie Dong gave her, she sneered.
News had started spreading among All Beings Base people, saying that the ones living on the fifth floor were all zombies.
Anyone who heard about that were shocked. They could scarcely believe it.
How could zombies possibly live with human beings?
Many of those people knew that their Chief, Miss Lu, Liu Jun, her son, and Xie Dong and Shen Yujen who were from Sea City Base, were living on that floor.
They looked a little weird, but their behavior seemed no different from that of healthy human beings!
However, thinking about the crowd of zombies which were guarding the base, and the zombie path that they had gone through back in the old Hades Base, those people realized that they all had something to do with zombies.
They thought that their Chief had some kind of secret ability which allowed her to protect the others from zombies, but never thought about if those zombies were controlled by higher-leveled zombies or not.



Let Yuan Tianxing and the others deal with this,
Lin Qiao didn’t pay too much attention to the news, but handed the paper back to Xie Dong and said to him blandly.
Yuan Tianxing or Lin Feng could easily solve that small problem.
Xie Dong nodded as he took over the paper, then turned and left.
Lin Qiao glanced at the blueprint on her desk. Some geographic features and the structure of the current base were marked on it with red and black pens. The construction of the fence wall had lasted for about three months. Recently, Lin Qiao had sent some zombies with metal power and earth power to help. So, the construction work had become more efficient than before by many times over, and the fence wall was already over ten miles long.
Based on the current efficiency, the rest twenty miles could be finished in about a month. After that, the construction of the zombie base would start.
The accommodations for the people in the base needed to be rearranged. Since people had started to suspect the ones living on the fifth floor, she decided to re-accommodate Hades Base survivors, and the ones from Sea City Base.
About food, Lin Qiao had no worries. Currently, she only needed to build up the fence wall and arm the army. The base was still lacking weapons.
On her way back from Huaxia Base, she took all the weapons that belonged to Lu Zhuofeng and his people. However, those weren’t enough to destroy the entire Hidden Cloud City Base.
Her zombie army also needed to evolve.
During the recent half a month, she had changed the blood of tens of thousands of ordinary zombies. That mission was carried out by Xie Dong and his zombie squad, with the help of Yun Meng. They were working efficiently; however, it still required some time for them to change the blood of over one-hundred-thousand zombies.


Except for the crowd of zombies around All Beings Base, there was another batch of ordinary zombies in West Lake District. That was an even larger crowd brought to Hangzhou by Lin Qiao from the old Hades Base.
When those zombies accepted Lin Qiao’s virus, the order that she gave them could no longer be erased. Lin Qiao had done a test about it. She first gave them an order, then asked Qiu Lili and Yun Meng to give them another order. As a result, they made no response to the two.
So, changing the blood of the other zombies, or, more specifically, the virus inside them, became the most though project that Lin Qiao was undertaking.
