“No! Do you think that I’m stupid? Will you really leave when I release your subordinates?” Lin Qiao rolled her eyes.
She took the three zombies only to warn Mo Yan. As for if she would give them back to him, that would depend on her mood.
“You have invaded my base once, and I let you get away with it. Are you still thinking about doing it again? I will take these five zombie dominators if you don’t leave, believe it or not,” Lin Qiao looked at Mo Yan in the eyes and sneered.
She didn’t want to suffer losses, neither did he. Last time, she took six level-six zombies from him as a trophy. If he kept sending more to her, she would not reject it.
Lin Qiao didn’t want to piss off the zombie emperor, but neither did she plan to let him bully her and her people.
Mo Yan stared at her while his purple lips were pressed together into a line. He stayed silent, but his eyes wore a fierce look.
Thinking about why he showed his face this time, he hesitated.
He planned to go straight north; Heilong Base in the Northeast was his target. He would never forget how those people tortured him years ago. Most of the people who died in the zombie attack were commoners. The ones who had eaten his flesh were still well alive.
He was only passing by Lin Qiao’s base. He spotted Qiu Lili and Yun Meng, and intended to bring them under his command to strengthen his force. He never thought that the weird female zombie would bring him difficulties.
However, he unexpectedly met Weiming and killed him. After that, he felt that his revenge was already half-way done.
Now, seeing the female zombie showing an intention to take away more of his subordinates, whom he had cultivated with good efforts, Mo Yan started worrying. He stayed quiet for a while, then gave a roar—’Give me all my subordinates back, then we’ll go far away from here.’
“All? No! The few that I took last time are already my trophies. Don’t you need to pay the price for offending my base?” Lin Qiao shook her head. “I can give you the three that I took just now at most,” she continued.
Mo Yan blinked, and the intention of killing flashed across his face as he roared, ‘Aren’t you afraid that I might destroy your in-construction base?’
Lin Qiao gave a faint smile. Her lips curved slightly, yet no actual smile could be detected from her eyes. Instead, those eyes were filled with killing intention as well.
“You can try. I may not be able to kill you, but I can exhaust you to death!” she said smilingly.
She didn’t say that because of her arrogance. She would not show any sign of weakness if there were a serious fight.
Mo Yan gazed at her while calculating. It seemed that he wouldn’t get the six level-six zombies back.
“Roar…” ‘Give me the three!’
Lin Qiao flashed into her space and soon reappeared with the three zombies. The three were confused when they were brought out. But soon, they realized what just happened, and immediately moved away from Lin Qiao.
“Take care,” Lin Qiao said to Mo Yan with a smile.
Mo Yan spent a few seconds looking at her silently, then turned and flashed away, disappearing in the darkness. Once he left, the other zombies all left quickly, including that level-five female zombie.
Lin Qiao stood there, sensing them going away. One hour later, she turned and returned to All Beings Base.
She had easily made Mo Yan leave, and knew that he wouldn’t come back anytime soon. As for if he would come back in the future, that would depend on when he killed all those people in Heilong Base who had eaten his flesh and drunk his blood.
Only after he took his revenge would he have the mood to come to her and bring trouble.
Lin Qiao felt that she needed to upgrade herself as soon as possible. Even though she wasn’t afraid of Mo Yan now, she wouldn’t be able to hurt him if they really started a fight.
She had absorbed seventy percent of Lu Zhuofeng’s energy nucleus, yet felt not even a sign of upgrading. Did she need to absorb more energy?
As she returned to the base, Qiu Lili ran over and asked, “Did he leave?”
Lin Qiao nodded and said, “He has something more important to do. Staying here was only a waste of time. He can’t hurt us, at least for now.”
“Oh,” Qiu Lili nodded and said, “As long as he’s gone… He won’t come back, will he?”
Lin Qiao shrugged and replied, “Who knows?”
…
The next day, Lin Qiao hosted a meeting and let the others know that she would lead a team to attack the Hidden Cloud City Base in three days.
“Tianxing will stay in the base to make sure that the fence wall will be built up as soon as possible. This is the list of the names of the people that I’ll take with me. You guys take a look and see if there is a problem,” Lin Qiao showed the others the name list.
On the list were Li Zheng, Xie Dong, Duan Juan, a few squad members under her command, Lin Kui, the six level-six zombies that Lin Qiao took from Mo Yan, and some other people.
“You’re taking Wenwen?” Yuan Tianxing was slightly surprised when he saw Lin Wenwen’s name on the list.
“Mm, yeah. I’ve been planning to send her out of the base to carry out a mission, but never had a chance. This is a good opportunity. I’ll take her myself,” Lin Qiao nodded and said.
“She… She won’t hinder the others, will she? Also, the name list seems to be a little short,” Lin Feng said with a frown.
“This will be her first mission. I don’t count on her to make a major contribution, but at least I’ll let her learn how to protect herself. The name list is not short. Lin Kui and the six zombie kings and queens will be enough. The others will stay here to guard the base,” Lin Qiao said.
“What? Are you gonna leave us here again? No! I’m going with you! Yun Meng will stay here!” Qiu Lili read the name list but didn’t find her and Yun Meng’s names. Not just them, even zombie one to seven would be left in the base too.
“Oi, why me? You should stay! You went the last time. It should be my turn this time!” Hearing Qiu Lili’s words, Yun Meng immediately rejected.
“Why are you going? You’re not as strong as I am!” Qiu Lili sat on a chair and flipped her hair, turning to look at Yun Meng.
“Since you’re so strong, you should stay and guard the base! Don’t go! Besides, we need at least one zombie dominator in the base while Big Sister is not here. What if zombie one to seven betrayed the base?” Yun Meng glared at Qiu Lili and snorted.
All zombies who accepted Lin Qiao’s virus would not disobey her order, no matter which level they were at. Qiu Lili and Yun Meng didn’t know about that, and couldn’t feel it either.
“Alright, you two will take turns. To be fair, I’ll take Yun Meng this time. Last time, Lili went to Hades Base with me,” Lin Qiao said.
“Yeah!” Yun Meng happily made a face toward Qiu Lili and then laughed smugly. The latter glared at her grumpily. However, since Lin Qiao had given her word, she didn’t say anything to disagree.
