“Eh?” As Lin Qiao dodged his attack, Lu Zhuofeng immediately descended from the sky and found that he had lost the trace of the enemy.
‘She hid fast!’
He stood on the broken roof of the warehouse and glanced where Lin Qiao leaped off before looking around. Right at that moment, he suddenly sensed a stream of coldness coming from behind him. Hurriedly, he leaped away and sprung up into the sky.
He turned to where he stood and saw Lin Qiao standing there with a palm raised, smiling at him creepily.
Looking at that wisp of dark fire on her palm, Lu Zhuofeng froze.
“That… that’s…”
Lin Qiao grinned and said, “What? Do you find it familiar? Would you like to feel it? It’ll make you feel even more familiar!”
While finishing her words, she suddenly clenched her fist and threw the fire at Lu Zhuofeng.
Lu Zhuofeng saw nothing but that wisp of dark fire darting at him and panicked. But, as a base leader, he only panicked for a moment. After the short panic, he swiftly raised a hand to create a windshield.
Boom! That tiny flame expanded speedily after bumping into the windshield. It actually penetrated the windshield, even growing stronger and stronger in the wind. Soon, it formed a black firewall, also seeming like a dark beast of fire that brandishing its claws while pouncing upon Lu Zhuofeng.
Seeing that black fire, Lu Zhuofeng somehow felt fear in his heart. As the fire grew larger and larger in the wind, he automatically moved further and further backward. Meanwhile, he took another glance at Lin Qiao.
She had disappeared again!
Finding that Lin Qiao had disappeared again, Lu Zhuofeng’s vigilance was raised to another level. Next, he found the dark fire before him rising into the sky, then splitting up into long wisps.
He was aware that the enemy’s power had fully suppressed his.
Before he could react, he saw the snake-like fire streams swishing at him. He hurriedly moved backward, but then felt something strange from his back. He immediately stopped moving backward, and then turned his body and moved sideways stiffly. Thankfully, his wind power allowed him to easily make that move in the air.
As he leaned to one side, a dark flake of fire flashed across the air right behind him.
“What? Are you afraid? Are you afraid that this fire might land on you and make you vanish?” At that moment, Lin Qiao’s voice came from the roof of another building.
Lu Zhuofeng waved a hand and created a hurricane to blow away the dark fire streams around him. After that, he quickly moved away from where he was.
“Who the hell are you! Do you expect me to take you for that woman who has already blown herself up after hearing your words? She’s dead. She was blown into pieces! You can pretend to be her, but I won’t possibly believe you! Do you think that I’m stupid?” Lu Zhuofeng yelled at Lin Qiao.
Even though Lin Qiao was using the poisonous dark fire, he didn’t think of her as Netherworld Fire, because he believed that the other had blown herself up and couldn’t possibly survive.
He believed that the woman in front of him was only someone who happened to have triggered the same kind of power as Netherworld Fire. He thought that she was trying to scare him with that dark fire, and that she underestimated him.
Lin Qiao looked at him, wanting to laugh. She couldn’t say for sure if Lu Zhuofeng was smart or silly. Last night, He Mu and Long Yubai believed her almost without hesitation.
Unlike them, Lu Zhuofeng refused to believe that she was still alive. He firmly believed that she had detonated herself and died for good. He was not wrong though. She did die, and that was a truth.
At first, even Lin Qiao herself didn’t want to believe the fact that she had woken up in another body, not to mention other people!
Based on Lu Zhuofeng’s attitude, she figured that he was rather smart. After all, he wasn’t scared, only a little surprised.
“You may believe me, or you may not. That’ll depend on what you do next!” While speaking, Lin Qiao suddenly reached out her arms toward him, then turned and wielded.
Soon, countless dark fire snakes flew swiftly at Lu Zhuofeng. In the air, those dark snakes split up and became more and more numerous. They attacked Lu Zhuofeng from every direction, but ended up being blown away by Lu Zhuofeng’s hurricane.
At that moment, Lin Qiao abruptly disappeared from where she was.
“Eh?” Lu Zhuofeng had been keeping an eye on Lin Qiao the whole time. But all of a sudden, he realized that he was distracted by those dark fire snakes, and that she had disappeared again.
Lu Zhuofeng got nervous. Thinking that Lin Qiao might be brewing some other moves, he was immediately alerted. He looked around vigilantly, in case she suddenly attacked from a random direction.
The fire snakes were still growing in number, showing no sign of declining. On the contrary, the fire was boosted again around Lu Zhuofeng’s windshield.
At that time, Lin Qiao had evacuated already, going far away.
She did want to kill Lu Zhuofeng, but as a level-eight wind-power possessor, he was at a higher level than her, and was able to fly in the sky. Her attacks could only be launched on the ground. The other way to kill him was through close combat.
Facing an enemy who could fly, the only long-range attack that she could launch was her fire. However, as the enemy gathered his wind power, the fire that she was able to send into the sky would become much less effective than usual.
She could start a big fight against him, but there might be no winner in it. However, she would surely spend a lot of time on it.
She didn’t want to waste time in fighting him. She was clearly unable to kill him this time, so she decided to wait for other chances.
At that point, the battle happening on the ground had entered an even more chaotic state. The captives had run away in all directions. This time, they didn’t run about crazily, but acted in an organized and planned fashion.
Added with the fact that those soldiers had been distracted by Lin Qiao’s zombies, they easily sneaked out of the warehouse. However, as they gathered around the entrances of the base, they were shocked by what they saw.
From a long distance away, they saw that the entrances had been taken down by zombie crowds. Earth Dragon Base armies had been killing those zombies, but the zombie crowds were way too huge, and the attacks launched by the armies barely delivered any effects.
At the very most, they stopped the zombie crowds from coming further into the base, but couldn’t force them out.
On the clearing before each entrance, countless zombie bodies piled up. Some surviving zombies were fighting each other over the bodies of the freshly died people.
More and more zombies came in through the entrances. The superpowered people released all kinds of powers—metal, green, water, fire and earth—to kill those ordinary zombies. Those were all ordinary zombies, so it was not difficult for superpowered people to kill them. The only problem was their humongous number.
