Chapter 104: Sudden Attack
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
“d.a.m.n! What the h.e.l.l is this!” The looks in the faces of Du Yuanxing and his teammates changed the moment they saw that big-headed zombie. Some of them even shouted out loud.
It was way too disgusting! And, they didn’t even know what it was.
Long Qingying was the only one who managed to maintain some composure while observing the four-feet-tall zombie.
It had a giant head, four eyes, two noses, and an awfully cracked mouth. Its head was covered in blood and wet hair.
Its head looked like a combination of two smashed human heads.
‘It’s so gross!’ Long Qingying complained silently.
Before Du Yuanxing and his teammates could confirm if this big-headed zombie was the one mentioned by Lin Qiao in her note, the disgusting zombie made a movement.
After realizing that everyone on the scene had discovered it, it impatiently opened its mouth wide and uttered a shrill scream, as if worried that Lin Qiao might seize its prey.
“Squeak!”
Its voice was ear-piercing, and this scream it let out was many times more powerful than the one before.
“Pah!” Three or four among Du Yuanxing’s team directly vomited blood and fell to the ground softly. Just now after Lin Qiao showed up, Du Yuanxing and his teammates had all come out of the car, only leaving the unconscious one lying in the car.
The rest of the team who managed to stay on their feet suffered badly as well. Their brains were shaken, and after that, they sensed a piercing pain, as if something sharp was stirring inside their heads.
Long Qingyung supported her body with the katana and remained standing, but Du Yuanxing, Cai Hongqing, and the other few directly kneeled.
All team members were temporarily disabled from fighting.
The strange thing was, the sound attack which was even effective on Qiu Lili turned out to be completely useless against Lin Qiao.
“Roar!” Seeing what happened to Long Qingying and her teammates, the big-headed zombie seized the opportunity to leap down from the tree and pounce on them.
‘We’re dead!’
Du Yuanxing and his teammates had sensed its movement, but couldn’t make any reaction at that time. They weren’t able to do what they hoped.
Long Qingying, who was the strongest one in the team, was still able to raise her katana, but couldn’t manage to make any further movement. Her reaction was slowed down by the sound wave; she knew what to do, but her body parts couldn’t get the orders from her brain timely.
Therefore, when they saw the big-headed zombie charge at her and her teammates, she only had time to grip the katana with both hands. But before she raised her weapon, the zombie was already right before her face, as it wasn’t far away before.
When the team was about to fall in despair, a roar was suddenly heard.
“Roar!”
A figure flashed across the air and suddenly showed up right beside the big-headed zombie when the latter had almost jumped on Du Yuanxing who was the closest from it. Then, a sharp claw swiftly pierced into the big-headed zombie’s head.
Puff!
“Squeak!”
A puffing noise was heard, along with a shrill scream.
All the others felt that their brains were shaken again. After that, they lost their eyesights temporally, and all blanked out.
Puff!
Lin Qiao swung her hand, then looked at the sticky liquid and a blue zombie nucleus in her hand, her face filled with disgust.
Following her moves, the big-headed zombie thudded against the ground like a pile of rotten meat.
Lin Qiao glance at the zombie nucleus, then at the group of human beings who were lying on the ground. It seemed that the scream uttered by the big-headed zombie before death was quite powerful.
But, why didn’t she feel a thing? Was it because she was a zombie?
She thought for a moment in confusion, but soon forgot about that question. She began to wonder what she should do with this group of human beings. Since she had met them already, she couldn’t bear to leave them here. Even though she was a zombie now, she still had a soldier’s soul!
She looked around, still failed to find a trace of Qiu Lili. She had no idea where had the latter gone to.
The zombie crowd which had been remaining motionless the whole time now began moving toward the group of human beings. It was probably because they were affected by the big-headed zombie’s last scream.
“Roar!”‘Go away!’
Lin Qiao bared her teeth and gave them a warning growl.
All the ordinary zombies stopped moving immediately, but still lingered in that area without leaving. Of course, they didn’t dare to get any closer either.
Lin Qiao looked around again. At last, she decided to put the group of people inside the car.
She put the zombie nucleus into her pocket, then glanced at her own hands. After that, she directly lifted Long Qingying to put her inside the car.
She spent quite a while to get the whole team into the car.
At that moment, a white figure showed up standing on the car roof; it was Qiu Lili. After Watching Lin Qiao put all these people into the car, she pointed at them and looked at Lin Qiao with questions in her eyes.
‘What are you gonna do with these people now?’ She asked.
Lin Qiao raised her head to look at Qiu Lili, wondering where she hid just now and didn’t show up until now.
She took out the notepad and wrote—’Are you afraid of human beings?’
Qiu Lili dropped her eyes and pouted. Then, she turned her back to Lin Qiao without answering the latter’s question.
Lin Qiao gave a helpless smile.
She didn’t understand how Qiu Lili felt about human beings. It might be repulsion, but she felt that Qiu Lili was more like afraid of human beings. In fact, Qiu Lili wanted to be close with human beings, as she used to be one of them. Even now, she just looked like a zombie, yet never killed or ate any human. Even though she now had the zombie virus which might infect human beings, she still wanted to be close with them.
However, human beings treated her like a monster only because she was changed in appearance.
Lin Qiao looked at the surrounding zombies, then found that they had all begun to draw back like an ebbing tide after Qiu Lili showed up. It was because she had released her strong vibe on showing up.
Sensing the vibe of a zombie queen, these ordinary zombies instinctively wanted to leave. It was like how ancient ordinary people saw the high-positioned ones with fear and admiration.
As Qiu Lili refused to talk to her, Lin Qiao closed the car doors.
She didn’t plan to drive that car. Instead, she sent the car and the people in it all into her s.p.a.ce.
She couldn’t tell if the nine people could survive or not. Judging by their vibes, they were still alive, but she didn’t know what conditions they were in. She planned to leave them in her s.p.a.ce and wait to see if they could wake up or not.
When the car disappeared, Qiu Lili lightly landed on the ground. She chose only clean and flat places to step on.
After that, Lin Qiao wrote on the paper—’Let’s go find a hotel building.’
She wanted to try finding some beds for those people to lie on. If she couldn’t find any beds, she would have to let them rest on the ground.
After reading the note, Qiu Lili pointed at one direction. Earlier on, she had seen a building which looked like a hotel when she was standing high up.
