Volume 3 Chapter 71 Back to Jiangcheng
The ugly boy screamed. His scream was sharp and unpleasant. Of course, that was not the point. The point was that his scream was accompanied by sound waves. If there was gla.s.s in front of him, the gla.s.s would have broken.
The moment the sound wave spread, Yan Qiyue erected the air barrier quickly. However, the barrier only lasted a few seconds before it clicked and broke.
Mulin’s complexion changed. Although she was a mental ability user, she had no defensive ability, so she subconsciously used her mental attack. Her mental ability and the sound wave collided. The invisible collision seemed to cause a powerful bomb. The roaring wind almost knocked everyone down.
When the smoke disappeared, there was only a big pit on the ground. Many zombies around only had their limbs left.
Mulin breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Shao Qing would be injured. She made up her mind to find a way to get a defensive ability.
In the past, she had n.o.body or thing to protect and just blindly forged ahead. Now it was different. She has Shao Qing, people who need protection. She can no longer be like before.
Without saying a word, Shao Qing pointed at the little boy and the ready-to-go Da Hua immediately jumped on him.
The moment it pounced, its flower head opened up and a shallow transparent gas sprayed out. Even if the ugly boy was a senior zombie, it couldn’t help but faint.
Although it was only a moment, it was enough for Da Hua to swallow him down.
Then Da Hua closed its petals. One could even see a human figure inside the bud, struggling constantly. But Da Hua stood still, it constantly grinded its petals, trying to digest the person in its stomach.
The first reaction of the woman holding the skull was to save the little boy, but Da Hua, who has followed Shao Qing for a long time, had already gained intelligence. As soon as it achieved what it wanted, it started to run back.
Xiao Hua that followed behind hurriedly stretched out its tentacles to stop the woman. The two flowers cooperated very tacitly. After the woman broke through the obstacle of Xiao Hua, Da Hua had already run behind Shao Qing.
The high-level zombie in its stomach had been struggling constantly since the corrosive solution cannot completely corrode it in a short time. Furthermore, a zombie can still struggle even without arms and legs, not to mention just having some of its flesh being corroded.
Da Hua with great difficulty tried to digest it down, it would even jump on the spot in a hurry. When Shao Qing saw this, she calmly opened the petals of Da Hua, reached in and pinched the head of the little boy zombie. Just when he was about to explode out, she shattered his head.
The prey stopped struggling. Da Hua shook its head in contentment, and began to digest the prey in his stomach.
The woman holding the skull saw that the situation was bad, so she ran away. No one stopped her. As soon as the woman ran, those strange-looking things also ran away. As soon as they left, there were not enough soldiers left.
Shao Qing and the others quickly cleared out all the ambushes, then continued to move forward. These high-level zombies were really humane, but who knows if they have memories.
Shao Qing placed aside her thoughts and hurried to Jiangcheng. When they were approaching Jiangcheng, they saw zombies and beasts surrounding Jiangcheng.
However, they couldn’t get close because on the walls of Jiangcheng were all kinds of plants. These mutant plants were very cruel, such as those vines. They could easily drive zombies and beasts far away.
There were also guards such as the vampire vines. For a while, they wouldn’t be able to get rid of the outermost plants. Furthermore, it doesn’t matter if they break through the outermost wall, the zombies in the city are not to be trifled with.
Yin Ye had gathered all the zombies in the city, and the wall of the inner city was ready to go. As long as they came close, the zombies would surge forward.
Jiangcheng was a natural stronghold, it couldn’t be more difficult to overcome.
Shao Qing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, nothing happened. She was relieved to see that Jiangcheng was fine. She had already prepared for the worst result. She was mentally prepared, but she did not expect the best result to appear in front of her.
Shao Qing was now extremely satisfied, at least there was nothing wrong with her family. This was the best.
When they arrived outside Jiangcheng, the zombies and beasts, as if they had received instructions, retreated like a tide, very orderly.
Shao Qing expressionlessly looked at the army of zombies and beasts that were slowly retreating. Although she was surprised, she was more shocked. Who is controlling everything secretly?
Why should this person target her, is this revenge? Or are there other intentions?
In any case, one thing is certain, that is that the person in secret is an enemy.
Shao Qing took her friends to the city. On both sides of the city walls, there were still many zombies tied up to the blood-sucking vines. They had been injected with toxins similar to anesthesia, each one more peaceful than the other.
They are all good research materials. Yan Qiyue could go back and study them later. What is the reason they were controlled by humans?
When Shao Qing arrived at the gate of the city, the gate had already opened automatically. Shao Tong rushed over first with Xiao Baozi behind her. There was no fear on her face, only strength.
“Xiao Tong has grown up…” Shao Qing sighed and touched her head. Yan Hanqing and the others were still transporting vegetables outside. They didn’t even know about the attack on Jiangcheng. Only Shao Tong was at home. Yin Ye helped, but Shao Tong was holding up at least half of the burden, which was already pretty good.
“This time you did a great job, my Xiao Tong is getting better and better!” Shao Qing sighed emotionally. She picked up Xiao Baozi. During this time, Xiao Baozi was raised wildly by her, playing crazy everywhere. He had become Jiangcheng’s ‘Big Brother’.
After entering Shao Qing’s arms, Xiao Baozi acted like a baby: “Mama, I will tell you that a very strange-looking uncle came to me and said he wanted to take me out to play, but baby did not go. Isn’t baby very good?”
Shao Qing squinted and listened to Xiao Baozi’s description. It seemed that some people had already contacted Xiao Baozi before the zombie beast siege. For some reasons, Xiao Baozi rejected them, but they didn’t dare to make a move.
Shao Qing breathed a sigh of relief: “Baby did the right thing. If you meet a stranger who wants to lead you away, you must never agree to it, because they are likely to be bad guys. After they take you away, you will never see your mother again.”
Xiao Baozi hugged Shao Qing tightly: “I am very obedient, I will not go with them.”
“Baby is so good!” Shao Qing sighed, then said: ” Xiao Tong, let’s go in first. Don’t stand silly at the door, is Yin Ye there?”
Shao Tong quickly told her with thoughts: “Brother Ye is in the laboratory.”
Shao Qing handed Xiao Baozi to Shao Tong. “I’ll go to the laboratory first. You take Xiao Baozi home and stay there, I’ll be back in a while.”
Shao Tong nodded, then took Xiao Baozi back.
Shao Qing took her friends to the laboratory. The laboratory was a nightmare for many zombies in Jiangcheng. They were transformed into zombies from ordinary people and superhumans in the laboratory.
However, even if Yin Ye did research, he would never do it to his own friends.
At this moment, there were only two people in the laboratory: one was Yin Ye, and the other was Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was lying next to the experimental platform, watching Yin Ye do the experiment openly, his eyes rolling curiously.
Yin Ye occasionally touched his head, but most of his time was spent on the research.
When Shao Qing came over, he was studying things patiently. It wasn’t until Shao Qing patted him on the shoulder that he reacted and quickly said, “You are back? You came back so early.”
“I received the news. Someone had plans for Jiangcheng, so I hurried back. I didn’t expect you to handle it better than I thought.” Shao Qing said calmly, “Is Jiangcheng okay?”
Yin Ye shook his head, “It’s okay, a lot better now.”
Shao Qing handed over the zombie beasts she picked from the city wall and half of the zombie spat out from Da Hua to Yin Ye: “I also encountered it on the way back. The opponent seems to have a lot of high-rank zombies in their hands. I want you and Qiyue to see what method the person used in the dark to produce high-rank zombies in batches and control them.”
Yin Ye was originally a researcher. As soon as he saw the corpse on the ground, he became interested: “Leave it to me and Qiyue. There will be results within three days.”
Yan Qiyue held Shao Qing’s chin, kissed her, and said “After you go back, take a shower and get a good rest. You must be exhausted. Sleep well, or I will feel distressed.”
Shao Qing also said, “You too, don’t research right away. Take a break first. Just leave it to Yin Ye. After you have a good rest, you can help.”
“En.” Yan Qiyue said in a low voice, “I will definitely not tire my body out. After all, it is you who took the time to nurse my body to health, how could I spoil your results. Go back and rest, I want to drink porridge. Make it for me when you wake up…”
“Okay, I’ll bring it to you when it’s done. It’s easy to make the porridge. Before I take a bath, I’ll have Xiao Tong watch it. When the porridge is ready, I’ll have her bring it to you. You and Yin Ye can drink it together.” After a long time of showing off their affection, Shao Qing remembered that there was Yin Ye next to him. She smiled.
Yin Ye said sourly: “Bullying me for being a single dog! This kind of show, you can smell if off your body for tens of miles, sweet and greasy. It’s enough. If you should rest then go rest. If you should work then go work. Don’t irritate me here.”
Shao Qing raised her eyebrows: “How many zombies are there in Jiangcheng? There should be a few good-looking ones. Should I pick out a few to warm your bed?”
Yin Ye’s face was blue at this time: “Get out!”
Shao Qing before she left: “Seriously, let me pick a few for you!”
“Get as far away from me as possible!” Yin Ye roared.
