Lin Qiao entered her space, and her sharp vibe surprised Qiu Lili.
Eh? Your outfit provides such a strong vibe! Where did you get them? Eh? Your hair grew long… Ah, you’re more powerful than before! You didn’t upgrade again, did you?
She spent a moment sensing Lin Qiao’s vibe, then looked at her in shock.
She felt that Lin Qiao had changed again! She was still the same being, but the feeling that the latter gave out was different again. Her vibe was stronger and sharper than before, and her power grade was higher.
Qiu Lili even felt a slight suppression from Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao glanced at her own clothes, then gave a faint smile and said,
I created these clothes with my energy. My old clothes were gone.
After saying that, she walked into the small building and went upstairs to change into some normal clothes. It was her first time creating clothes with energy, and those fake clothes made her feel insecure.
You… You upgraded again… Why are you upgrading so fast? I upgraded not long ago, and now you upgraded again! Upgrading is supposed to be difficult for zombies, but it seems to be as easy as sleeping and eating to you,
said Qiu Lili unhappily.
Lin Qiao raised a hand to lift her long hair which covered her eyes, then smiled at Qiu Lili and said,
Are you jealous?
Eh… I’m not!
Qiu Lili turned her face away, her eyes fixed on the wall which had nothing on it.
I restored my memory. I was right. I am Chief Netherworld Fire, the leader of the Hades Base,
Lin Qiao sat on a couch and leaned against the back while putting her feet on the tea table.
While speaking, she raised a finger and a black wisp of flame rose from her finger, swaying in the air.
Eh? Are you saying that…
Hearing what she said, Qiu Lili immediately walked to her, intending to sit next to her. However, the moment she approached the flame on Lin Qiao’s finger, she quietly turned and sat on the other side.
They said you blew yourself up. Now you remember… So, is that real?
Qiu Lili asked.
Em,
Lin Qiao nodded and drew a circle in the air with the flame on her fingertip.
Yes, I blew myself up. I’ll make them pay for that when the time comes.
Them? Who are they?
Qiu Lili asked.
The leaders of Sky Fire Base and Hidden Cloud City Base,
said Lin Qiao.
Wow! Including Earth Dragon Base, you’re going to fight against three bases now, aren’t you? We don’t have many people in our new base yet. Can we even do that?
Qiu Lili did the math for her.
Why not? I’m not going to let Lin Feng and the others do the fighting. I’m saying that I can go with the zombie army. The world is full of zombies. With right direction, the zombies in one province can tear down a base. Since I have a strong zombie army, why will I ever let them get away?
While speaking, Lin Qiao curved one side of her mouth corners into a confident, wicked smile.
Her smile was wicked, and the light shining from her eyes was icy-cold.
Qiu Lili looked at her and suddenly stood up before running to a corner and squatting. While petting the baby tiger which was lying on the ground, she turned back and gave Lin Qiao a glance.
No wonder you caught so many high-leveled zombies on our way here. Had you started planning this long ago?
She asked.
Awooo…
The baby tiger had woken up. It was able to move, but couldn’t run away. Qiu Lili found a rope and tied it on a table, in case it might run.
No. I caught those zombies because I want to bring them back to guard the new base. But now, that’s no longer their sole mission,
Lin Qiao took back the flame on her finger and then turned, putting her hands on the back of the couch while looking at Qiu Lili and the baby tiger.
This little fella is recovering quickly. In fact, you don’t need to tie it up,
she said.
But, it’ll run all over this place, and its wounds might be torn,
Qiu Lili rubbed the tiger’s head. The latter turned its round head from left to right to dodge her hand.
…
The next morning, people gathered up in the square. Duan Juan and her people had only slept for a few hours, so their heads were spinning when they got up. Before showing up in front of the others, they just washed their faces to wake themselves up.
Superpowered people were energetic. However, they still looked a little unkempt, as they hadn’t showered for many days.
Duan Juan stood on the stage, looking at the people gathering in the square.
We’ll leave all the supplies in this place for you. After we leave, you’ll be responsible for your own lives,
she said to those people expressionlessly.
Those people glanced at each other silently.
Eh? If we’re not going to take anything, how are we supposed to travel over a thousand miles away?
The people who were going to leave asked with surprise.
You don’t need to worry about that. We have done preparations for the journey, but we won’t touch the supplies in here,
Duan Juan said to them.
What… What about vehicles? We can at least take some vehicles, right?
Someone else asked.
There’ll be vehicles for you when you leave the base. If you don’t believe me, you can stay and wait for other opportunities to go to the new base,
said Duan Juan.
Hearing her words, those people started discussing. Because she said that she and her people wouldn’t take any supplies from this base, many people changed their minds and decided not to leave.
Duan Juan had seen that coming, so she said loudly,
The people who decide to follow me to the new base this time, I’ll find each of you a job, and you’ll be paid well. As for the ones who don’t follow me this time but decide to join the base later on, you’ll be able to enter the base for free, but your pay scale will be lower. Think about it carefully before making your decisions.
After saying that, she glanced at her watch and then continued,
It’s seven o’clock in the morning now. I’ll give you three more hours, as we’ll leave at ten. Come to the square three hours later if you decide to leave.
Then, Duan Juan, Qian Xiaoai, and the others returned to an office in the administrative building to wait. Lin Qiao suddenly showed up by their side as she looked at them and asked,
I wonder how many people are willing to take the risk to come with us.
At that moment, only Ding Datong, Qian Xiaoai, Li Hongsheng, and a few other people were in the office. Except for Duan Juan, the others all stood there cautiously without daring to talk.
Lin Qiao was now in a different outfit. The pressure given out by the military suit that she wore yesterday was gone, but those people were still a little scared by her unfamiliar face and zombie eyes.
Lin Qiao didn’t wear her sunglasses, as there were only a few people in the office.
She looked at those people and said,
Are you so afraid of me? You didn’t seem to be so careful when you were with me before.
