Right when Fang Xiulin sensed that his power was suppressed by that strange space, a figure suddenly flashed out from behind a tree and pounced straight on him. Feeling the strong killing intention, Fang Xiulin hurriedly turned to dodge.
Bang! A wind blade hit the tree which was behind Fang Xiulin, generating a loud noise. As a result, the entire tree was shaken and rustled, while a few claw marks were left on the trunk.
Claw marks?
Fang Xiulin looked at those marks with surprise, then turned to look that woman who had suddenly shown up from nowhere… No, it was not a woman… It was a zombie! Her eyes were all black.
She had a pretty, undamaged face. However, her eyes were purely black like the eyes of zombies, and her lips were dark purple.
Her eyes were giving out an obvious intention of killing, which had Fang Xiulin shrouded.
Fang Xiulin immediately figured out that she was a space-powered zombie. Based on her look, she was a zombie dominator.
Right at that time, the female zombie started talking. “Lu Zhuofeng is dead. You’re the next!”
“You… You can talk?” Fang Xiulin was shocked, not by Lu Zhuofeng’s death, but by the fact that the female zombie was able to talk.
Had zombie dominators developed linguistic abilities already?
It took him a short while to process that the zombie just said.
“What? Lu Zhuofeng is dead? That’s impossible!” Fang Xiulin stared at the zombie and said with disbelief.
Lin Qiao sneered, “You sent out two vice-leaders to look for him. It has been so long, but nothing was heard from them yet. Do you think it’s possible or not?”
Fang Xiulin blinked quickly. Deep down, he already had an answer. Yet, he didn’t admit it to her. “You’re trying to trick me, aren’t you? I don’t really care if he’s dead or alive! Don’t tell me that you killed him. Do you think that I’ll believe that?”
A space-powered zombie could never kill a level-eight superpowered man.
Fang Xiulin stayed composed. Space-powered beings had no special abilities except for their spaces. That resulted from the relative studies that all human bases had been doing during the past six years.
“Fang Xiulin, are you dumb? Do you know what special powers mean? Who told you that I’m just a space-powered zombie? Besides… have you ever seen another talking zombie? Hm?” Lin Qiao looked at him disdainfully and said with a cold smile.
Fang Xiulin frowned slightly. Lin Qiao’s words inspired him and made him think of another possibility. She could be dual-powered, just like him!
With that thought, Fang Xiulin suddenly reached out both hands and swung his arms. A strong wind spiraled up into the sky and raised clouds of sands, darkening the woods which were already dusky.
Lin Qiao disappeared from where she was, and her voice was heard from every direction.
“Fang Xiulin, you should be prepared for today after you ganged up with other bases to destroy my Hades Base. Don’t worry, I won’t blow your base up. I’m only going to kill all the superpowered ones in your base and those administrators! Look, am I not more humane than you people?”
Hearing her words, Fang Xiulin paused briefly, then raised his head and popped his eyes as he yelled to ask, “Who are you? Come out! Are you from Hades Base? Are you here for revenge?”
“You guessed right. I am from Hades Base. So, enjoy your death.” Lin Qiao’s deep voice was heard in the woods along with the frosty killing intention.
Fang Xiulin raised both arms. Following his movement, the wind and sands gathered toward his body, soon forming a tornado around him. The wind roared across the woods, brushing across the trees and rustling the leaves loudly. However, it hardly hurt those trees.
“Show me what you can do then!” Fang Xiulin’s face darkened, because he had vaguely sensed the difference between her and himself.
She was clearly a level-seven zombie while he was a level-seven human. He was dual-powered, and she could be dual-powered too. Based on the fact that zombies were usually stronger than same-leveled humans, Fang Xiulin figured that he should not waste time in that battle, because it would do him no good.
Besides, he was in the enemy’s space. He might be exhausted to death in that space unless he found a way to break out of it.
Lin Qiao hid on a tree which was about ten meters away from Fang Xiulin. Standing on a branch, she sensed his power grow stronger and stronger. The sandstorm that he started was giving out a greater and greater pressure while the energy that he gathered grew higher and higher.
She knew that he was going to release a heavy strike. Compared to Lu Zhuofeng, he was much better at using his powers. He was able to gather the wind and sand powers to a certain degree, and then make them explode.
Lin Qiao stood on the branch and reached out her hands toward Fang Xiulin to control gather all the energy of the space toward him.
As Fang Xiulin was boosting the sandstorm to see if he had a chance to blow the space up, he suddenly sensed that his powers were suppressed even more. He wasn’t able to gather the energy to the explosive point.
Lin Qiao brought Fang Xiulin’s energy under control, then suddenly swung an arm and threw out a flake of dark fire.
The dark fire drifted toward Fang Xiulin’s sandstorm, growing larger and larger. Before long, it became a fire dragon, diving at Fang Xiulin and coiling around his sandstorm.
At that moment, a vice-leader ran into the conference room where Fang Xiulin was staying in, to report him about the high-leveled zombie attacks which happened in the base just now. A zombie dominator had shown up in the area where a boom was heard, and meanwhile, another base leader encountered another zombie dominator. After that, some level-six zombies were seen in a few other areas. All of those zombies purposefully attacked some important base members.
That vice-leader had a very strong bad feeling, as so many high-leveled zombies had shown up in the base. He came over to report to his boss, yet his boss wasn’t there.
“Where’s Chief Fang?” He quickly drew back to the door and grabbed a guard.
“Eh? Isn’t he in there? He didn’t come out.” The guard looked into the room with confusion. Fang Xiulin wasn’t there indeed.
“Eh? This is not right. Chief was in there the whole time! He didn’t come out after you left, neither did he make any sounds.”
The vice leader’s expression changed once he heard that. With a serious look, he turned back and walked to the chair that Fang Xiulin was sitting in earlier.
“He didn’t go out? Where is he then?” He murmured to himself. Abruptly, he knitted his brows and continued, “Did he encounter an attack as well? But, how come no sound was heard from him?”
