Wu Chengyue sullenly looked at his daughter who refused to listen to him once she saw the female zombie.
“Good Ling Ling, just go downstairs with your Daddy. We’re about to have a serious conversation here. Children shouldn’t hear it,” Lin Qiao tried to coax her to leave with her father.
What she and Wu Chengyue had just now was also a serious conversation though.
Once Lin Qiao gave her words, Ling Ling uncoiled her little arms from her. Then, she touched Lin Qiao’s stomach and nodded unhappily. She wanted to talk to Viney, but Viney was sleeping the whole time. That made her a little unhappy.
Lin Qiao watched her turn and leave with Wu Chengyue, wondering when Viney would wake up. She always felt that Ling Ling was a little lonely.
After Wu Chengyue left, she said to Yuan Tianxing, “I need to change the plan. In these couple of days, I’ll leave for the Earth Dragon Base. I’m going to find a way to kill the disgusting Long Yubai. Otherwise, he’ll keep egging Hidden Cloud City Base and Sky Fire Base to attack us. The antidote has been successfully developed, so those two bases will have no spare time for us, not even after I kill Long Yubai.”
“What? Are you going to kill Long Yubai now? Didn’t you say that you’ll take some rest first? The development of the antidote hasn’t reached a final success yet, has it?” Hearing Lin Qiao’s decision, Yuan Tianxing responded anxiously.
“I’ll upgrade you and Lin Feng before I leave. Two of the five level-six zombie nuclei are for you guys. Also, Yun Meng and Qiu Lili will stay here. They won’t leave with me. About the antidote, you should stay out of it for now. I’ll figure out what exactly is happening. And, don’t tell the others that I’m going to leave… Don’t let my Mom, Wenwen, and the others know,” Lin Qiao looked at him expressionlessly.
“Alright, I get it,” Yuan Tianxing looked at her and said. The look on her face told him that there was no room for him to say anything else.
Although Lin Qiao had said that she would upgrade both Lin Feng and Yuan Tianxing, she had no idea if Lin Feng could make the breakthrough or not. The only thing she did know was that one single level-six zombie nucleus wouldn’t be enough for Lin Feng, as he broke into level-six just a couple of months ago.
Being brought into Lin Qiao’s space again, Yuan Tianxing took fright on seeing the broad space and the large group of zombies in there. Clearly, the space was much larger than before.
As Lin Qiao had expected, he made the breakthrough pretty easily, because he was already at the top of level six. One zombie nucleus brought him into level-seven without difficulties.
It did take a rather long while though. When they came out, it was already the next day.
“Go down and tell Lin Feng to come up,” Lin Qiao said to Yuan Tianxing when he left her room.
“Em,” Yuan Tianxing nodded.
As Yuan Tianxing closed the door and left, Lin Qiao unwittingly touched her lower abdomen.
Maybe because she had consumed too much energy to help Yuan Tianxing with the upgrade, she had been having a strange feeling from her stomach since she came out of the lake.
She had no time to rest, because she needed to solve the problem caused by Long Yubai; the sooner the better.
She sat on the couch and picked up a strawberry from her space to make a bite. It was sour, but she had nothing else to eat for now. She hadn’t eaten any meat for quite a while!
In about twenty minutes, Lin Feng showed up at her door.
“Come in,” Lin Qiao invited him in before he even knocked on the door.
Crack! Lin Feng opened the door and walked in.
“What happened? Why did you call us back in such haste?” Lin Feng looked at her confusedly.
Lin Qiao pointed at the couch beside her and said, “I need to change the plans that I made before. I also have to kill Long Yubai as soon as I can. If I let him live, he’ll cause more unnecessary troubles. I made you come back so urgently because I want to help you with the upgrade. But, I can’t say whether you can break into level-seven or not for sure.”
Lin Feng looked at her with surprise, saying, “I just entered level-six a couple of months ago. Will my power be unstable if I broke into level-seven so soon?”
“We have to take the risk. I still want to enhance the strength of our base as much as possible, or I’ll be worried,” said Lin Qiao.
“You’re still like this. You take all the responsibilities by yourself. Occasionally, you should believe in us. We’re not so useless,” Lin Feng looked at her with discontentment.
Lin Qiao had taken all the responsibilities in the family ever since she grew up. She didn’t even share those responsibilities with her big brother. After the apocalypse, she tried even harder to protect her family.
“It’s not that I don’t believe in you. You’ve seen what the world turned into after the apocalypse. Everybody feels insecure. There’re too many uncertain factors. I don’t want to see anything bad happen to any of you guys,” Lin Qiao sighed and said.
“You don’t need to be so worried. We’re not kids. We can protect ourselves,” Lin Feng helplessly covered his forehead. He felt so tired. He felt as if he wasn’t a big brother, but a little one!
“Alright, let’s not talk so much for now. Do you know that Huaxia Base people have already developed an antidote for the zombie virus? For that reason, we have to be more lowkey when taking an action. Also, Long Yubai will certainly try to bring our new base some troubles. I need to stop him before it gets big. So, don’t tell Mom and Wenwen about my plan. Just keep it to yourself,” Lin Qiao said to him.
“I get it,” Lin Feng nodded, then asked, “What’s about the antidote?”
“Go and talk to Tianxing when you have time. He’ll explain to you,” Lin Qiao said to him, then grabbed his arm and continued, “So now, just let me upgrade your level first.”
Next, she dragged Lin Feng straight into her base.
Like Yuan Tianxing, he was too shocked by the changes that had happened in that place, as he hadn’t come into her space for quite a while.
“Wow, your space is so much bigger than before! Is it related to your power level? Does it grow larger each time you upgrade?” Lin Feng looked around with surprise, “Eh, so many zombies. Are you going to turn this place into a zombie base?”
Lin Qiao nodded and said, “I do have that plan. Except for zombie, I also…” Before she could finish, a roar was heard from the woods.
The two of them turned and heard more noises from that area. Soon, a furless zombie dog rushed out of the woods, chased by a giant dark snake.
“Again! Those two never rest!” Lin Qiao looked at the two creatures helplessly.
Lin Qiao had warned the dog not to come to the strawberry field and the vegetable field, so it darted into the grassland and hopped around very happily.
Seeing that, Lin Feng didn’t even know what expression to wear.
