“Ah!” That dark fire violently wrapped up He Mu’s fat body. Even though his skin had turned into metal, that metal skin was quickly corroded by Lin Qiao’s fire, exposing the blood-red muscles.
Once Lin Qiao made that move, He Mu was doomed without a question. He was in her space now. His power had been suppressed while hers was boosted.
“Ahhhhh…” Being burned by the fire, He Mu rolled on the ground while screaming. The dark fire created countless holes on the grassland. His voice grew weak after he made a few rolls on the ground. Next, he stopped rolling, twitching for a few times before becoming motionless.
In a few minutes, the fire on him shrank gradually. At last, it turned into a thin wisp of flame, flying toward Lin Qiao. She clenched her fingers and took the dark fire back, then walked to He Mu. That area was empty now, with nothing but a level-seven nucleus left on the ground.
He Mu was not weak; he was a level-seven superpowered man after all. However, Lin Qiao was so much powerful than him. Compared to the time when she killed Tang He, her power had already been improved by many levels.
After restoring her memory, she was having full control of her space. Therefore, suppressing He Mu didn’t take her much time. She suppressed him completely within a few minutes, and all she needed to do was to focus and boost her willpower.
Therefore, He Mu failed to tear down the small building and turn the metal objects inside it into his weapons. He had seen nothing but that one building in this place after all.
Lin Qiao had also regained the dark fire, which made her even stronger. All Southwest base leaders were afraid of Netherworld fire. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have attacked her together and made her detonate her energy nucleus.
When she retrieved that fire with her zombie body, her fire power went up to a higher level.
Hence, she killed the level-seven metal-powered, He Mu, so easily. Others might not have been able to do it as easily as she did.
The others didn’t have what all she had. Without the space that could suppress the enemy’s power and the life-taking fire, it would be rather difficult to kill someone like He Mu.
‘Eh?’
With surprise, Lin Qiao glanced at the dark fire on her palm, then gently clenched her fist. She didn’t expect He Mu to be so weak!
‘Mama, it’s because you’ve grown stronger.’ At that time, Viney solved her puzzle.‘Mama, come on, come on, Viney wants that energy nucleus!’
“Do you?” Lin Qiao paused briefly and asked as she walked toward that metal energy nucleus. She bent over and picked it up, but started feeling confused. She never thought that He Mu would die so soon. She was going to torture him slowly to death, like what she did with Tang He.
However, he died in just a few minutes. That happened so quickly that Lin Qiao couldn’t accept it for a while. After all, she was nervous and on full alert. However, it had already happened, so she soon accepted it.
She held the nucleus and said to Viney, “Be patient! I’ll let you absorb it when I finish my work here. You’ve absorbed quite some energy last time. Why are you in need again so soon?”
‘What I’ve had isn’t enough… Viney needs a lot more!’ Viney sighed.
“Don’t worry! Apart from this level-seven one, I have some level-six nuclei. Later, I’ll let you have as much as you need. How’ bout that?” Lin Qiao lowered her head and smiled.
“Awo! Awo!” At that moment, the baby tiger’s voice was heard.
Lin Qiao turned and found Lu Tianyi looking at her with a strange expression.
He heard the noise created by Lin Qiao when he was in the small buildings. He didn’t dare to come out at first, as he felt that Lin Qiao was frenzied. So, he stayed in the building and watched for a while. To his surprise, he watched Lin Qiao burn a fatso out. Moreover, that man seemed to be a rather high-leveled metal-power possessor.
When Lin Qiao finished the enemy, he moved out of the building toward her and heard her talking to herself.
Seeing the look on Lu Tianyi’s face, Lin Qiao put the nucleus into her pocket, then said to him, “Stay indoors… My job isn’t done yet.”
After saying that, she turned and flashed out of the space.
As for the confusion that Lu Tianyi had, Lin Qiao, of course, wouldn’t tell him that she wasn’t talking to herself, but to Viney. After all, she couldn’t imagine what Lu Tianyi might do when he found out that she was now a pregnant zombie!
She had collected the nuclei of He Mu and Lin Ruifeng. As for that level-five Lin Ruihua, the zombie dog ate his nucleus along with his face.
One of the five level-six nuclei that Wu Chengyue gave her still hadn’t been used. Added with those level four and five nuclei that Yun Meng and her zombie squad brought to her earlier, she had quite some energy nuclei in store.
She exited her space and showed up in He Mu’s room, then turned and walked to the balcony, leaping up and disappearing in the darkness.
On the other side of the base, Lu Zhuofeng was lying asleep in a bedroom, wearing pajamas.
He dreamily turned and swung an arm to the other side of the bed. A few seconds later, he moved that arm slightly, then his hand began wandering on the bed.
“Eh? Bai?” He groped for a while but failed to find a thing. After that, he opened his eyes with a frown and looked around, but saw no one. Then, he moved his eyes to the corners of the room.
That person was not on the bed, or in the room. Where was he?
Long Yubai thought that Lu Zhuofeng was drunk. But in fact, he was only slightly drunk before; he was mostly sober now.
Long Yubai wasn’t there. Lu Zhuofeng relaxed his frown, then sat up and got off the bed. He walked to the window and looked outside. Afterward, he walked to the door and opened it.
Long Yubai wasn’t in the living room either. Lu Zhuofeng looked at the time and found that it was one in the morning. Where did Long Yubai go?
Lu Zhuofeng searched around the flat and confirmed that Long Yubai had already left. He thought for a moment, then returned to the bedroom and went back to the bed. Clearly, the fact that Long Yubai left while he was sleeping didn’t affect him.
He lay down and soon fell asleep again.
