Hearing Qiu Lili’s scream, the crowd of zombies standing motionlessly on the road suddenly began loitering about, as if someone had suddenly turned on their switch. Their neat formation was immediately disorganized.
All the zombies began drawing away from Qiu Lili and Lin Qiao once they started moving, as if they were afraid of something and were automatically trying to find another place to stay.
The road before Lin Qiao’s car was soon cleared. After that, she started the car. Qiu Lili looked around in her car. When she turned to the backseat, she suddenly recalled that there was another zombie.
So, she picked up Lin Qiao’s pen and paper and wrote, ‘Where’s your friend? Does she have memories too?’

Before Lin Qiao, Qiu Lili hadn’t met any zombies with memories; so, she was curious about the other zombie.
Lin Qiao hadn’t started driving yet, so she took over the pen and paper, wrote,‘She’s in my space. She’s afraid of you.’

She meant that they should leave Junjun in her space alone instead of letting her out to face Qiu Lili, who was a level-six zombie.
Level-five zombies were called zombie leaders, while level-six zombies were called zombie kings and zombie queens, because they were the highest-leveled zombies which found till now. As for level-seven zombies, even though no human survivors had seen any of them yet, they called them ‘Zombie Dominators’.
The clean-looking young female zombie sitting beside Lin Qiao was a wind-powered zombie queen. Lin Qiao didn’t know how powerful Qiu Lili was; but judging by the pressure and the sense of danger that she had been giving off, she should be strong enough to even put up a fight against Wu Yueling’s father, even though she was only a level-six zombie!
She didn’t understand why this powerful zombie queen insisted on following her. She felt that she couldn’t understand the latter’s thoughts!
Qiu Lili didn’t say much after reading Lin Qiao’s note. She nodded, then let out a deep roar, as if saying, ‘Alright’.
Lin Qiao glanced at her, then pressed on the accelerator and drove away. Not long after that, she felt that the car suddenly became heavier. She knew that it was because Qiu Lili’s two followers had jumped onto her car.
But strangely, it seemed that the two zombies didn’t dare to make any loud sound, as if they were afraid that they might disturb Lin Qiao and Qiu Lili, who were sitting in the car. In fact, they were only afraid of Qiu Lili.
…
At that moment, Wu Chengyue had taken Wu Yueling back to the base. During the journey, he found that his daughter’s personality hadn’t changed much, because she was still ignoring people, and wouldn’t talk. Wu Chengyue didn’t know how to make his daughter talk, and had already gotten used to her being like that. However, it was a good thing for him to find that his daughter remained the same as before, as he was worrying that she might have been scared by the female zombie and become even more withdrawn.
Since what he had feared didn’t happen, he had relaxed a little by now. Earlier on, when he left that orchard, he felt that his daughter seemed to be reluctant to part with that female zombie. Wu Yueling didn’t tell him anything back then, but he still felt that way because he saw her turning back to look for that zombie from time to time.
Even though the personality of his daughter didn’t change, her body seemed to have changed.
Since he held his daughter the first time that day, Wu Chengyue had been feeling that her daughter’s body was filled with a magical energy.
He didn’t know what that was. That energy wasn’t like a superpower, yet was like a power which was hiding inside her body, and had yet to be triggered. At first, he was worried that that energy might bring harm to his daughter; but after asking Meng Yue to sense it, he found that energy to be very gentle, and seemed to be protective. Somehow, that energy was protecting Wu Yueling.
After knowing that energy wouldn’t hurt his daughter, but was protecting her instead, Wu Chengyue stopped worrying, and began feeling happy for his daughter. After all, it was a good thing.
During the journey, he had been studying the energy inside his daughter’s body. However, he couldn’t figure out what exactly did that female zombie do to Wu Yueling. She not only took good care of his daughter, but also put a protective energy inside Wu Yueling’s body.
Wu Chengyue also had a feeling that if that energy was triggered, his daughter might have a special superpower.
After returning to the base, Wu Yueling still wouldn’t let anyone get near her, except for her father and Meng Yue, who was very amiable.
Therefore, when the two of them weren’t busy, they would stay with Wu Yueling in her room. Alternatively, Wu Chengyue would bring Wu Yueling to his office. The people around him were all used to that quiet little girl.
Wu Yueling was very quiet. If her father let her stay in her room, she would sit on her bed; her father had no way to find out what she was thinking. If her father took her to the office, she would sit silently on the couch, or sleep. While she was awake, she would always be in a daze.
Wu Chengyue worried that she might get bored, so he decided to get her a pet. When she came out of the female zombie’s space, he saw that she was holding a little rabbit. Therefore, he found some small fluffy animals for his daughter.
Those small animals were scarce and precious in the post-apocalyptic world, which was filled with mutant beasts. However, as a base leader, Wu Chengyue could get whatever he wanted.
However, the problem was that his daughter wouldn’t even look at those kittens and puppies he found for her. Once he put those animals in front of her, she would turn her head away.
Well, he knew that his daughter could be single-minded sometimes…
Wu Chengyue felt that the female zombie was quite special. He wondered if she had memories, and also if she was still a human being, or a half-human and half-zombie.
He was also curious about what kind of food she lived on. Animals? He saw her drinking snake blood earlier on, so he wanted to know if she had eaten that giant snake entirely.
While Wu Chengyue was sitting in his office, gazing at his daughter who was drawing with a pen and a paper, someone knocked on his door.
He came back his senses and realized that he was actually distracted from work, because he was thinking about that strange female zombie.

Come in,
he said toward the closed door.
The door was opened right away, and the tall and sturdy Xiao Yunlong walked in with some files. He put the files on Wu Chengyue’s table, then said to him,
Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming want to see you.

Wu Chengyue looked at him with surprise, then asked,
Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming? Aren’t they working for Zou? Why do they want to see me?

Xiao Yunlong shook his head and responded with,
You might have to ask them about that yourself.

Wu Chengyue was curious about that, and he wasn’t in the mood to continue doing his work at that moment, so he nodded and said,
Send them in.


Send them in.
Xiao Yunlong turned to say to the guards outside the door. After that, two young and handsome men walked in.
