“I wonder if you have any idea who invented the experiment that you are doing. If you can tell me about him, I’ll take care of Li Zhengye and his army for you. After that, Li Zhengye will no longer be running the base. What do you think?” Lin Qiao looked at him and said.
Li Zhengye was already dead anyway. Lin Qiao’s next mission was to figure out who that mysterious man was and how powerful he was. He already knew her secret, so she could not let him live freely out there.
“You mean Long Hair? I don’t know anything about him, but I know who does. How are you gonna deal with Li Zhengye and his army? He still has my family.” The man blinked as he looked at Lin Qiao and asked.
Lin Qiao shrugged and said, “I can’t help your family. I’m only gonna kill Li Zhengye for you. Without Li Zhengye’s orders, his army won’t react within a short time. Besides, I know how to keep the army busy. They won’t have time for you guys.”
“How exactly will you do that?” The man looked at her with doubts, “Who are you? Why should I believe you?”
Lin Qiao looked at him as she smilingly shook her head and said, “A smart guy wouldn’t ask questions like that. You’ll know when it happens.”
The middle-aged man had no other choice but to believe her. Otherwise, he would be dead already. Hearing her words, he stayed silent for a few seconds, then nodded and said, “Alright. Since you’ve said that, I’ll believe you even though I don’t even know who you are.”
“Good. I’ve already taken care of the soldiers here, so you can do whatever you want now. Tonight, you will know how I’m gonna deal with the army. So, can you tell me something about the man called Long Hair now?” As the man seemed rather smart, Lin Qiao talked to him delightedly.
The man looked at her, still not believing her hundred percent. “In this case, I’ll tell you who knows about Long Hair tonight after I learn what will be happening,” he said.
He needed to save a card for himself.
Lin Qiao looked at him and smiled faintly, “No need. I already know who he is. You guys only need to wait and see what will happen tonight.”
After saying that, she turned and walked into the elevator unhurriedly, disappearing before the others’ eyes.
“Director, who is she? Do you really believe what she said?” The man’s a.s.sistant asked the man once Lin Qiao left.
The man looked at his a.s.sistant calmly and said, “Look at those soldiers. Do you think they’re still alive?” While speaking, he turned to the soldiers who were lying in the hallway.
The others glanced at each other, then carefully walked out and alertly checked those soldiers, then straightened their bodies and sighed with relief.
“They’re all dead.”
“Wait! What about the ones down there?” said another man.
“I’ll go and take a look!” Someone else had thought of the same thing, so he turned and ran down the stairs near the elevator. Two minutes later, he came back up.
“Director, the ones down there are all dead as well.”
“I guessed right,” the director nodded, “I’m afraid the soldiers on the grounds have all been cleaned out too.”
“So, Director, do you know who she is? She’s so pretty. She found this place, so she must be quite powerful. She’s not from our base, is she?” asked a curious man.
“She’s definitely not from our base,” the director shook his head and said, “She’s here to deal with Li Zhengye. So, she’s probably from Hidden Cloud City Base or Earth Dragon Base.”
“She might be from All Beings Base. Isn’t that the new Hades Base?” The man’s a.s.sistant made a guess.
“No matter who she is, she’s Li Zhengye’s enemy. So, she can work with us. She also wants Long Hair, but Long Hair isn’t so easy to deal with.” The director wasn’t thinking that much. All he wanted to know was if what the woman said about tonight would truly happen. If that happened, there might really be a chance to take Li Zhengye down.
Also, he needed to save his family.
“Alright, since the soldiers here are down, go and bring our people back secretly and take control of this place. Also, shut down the experiment and send the dead bodies to their families,” the director started to give instructions.
“Should we send the bodies back secretly or…” the a.s.sistant asked.
“Secretly, of course! Do you want to expose us? We are the people who actually did the experiment. Even though we were forced by Li Zhengye, we are still the ones who killed them,” the director coldly gave him a glance.
“Oh, I get it!” They mustn’t be exposed.
After giving out the instructions, the director quickly ran to the room at the end of the hallway, untied the person in the room, and gave the man the cure that had been prepared long ago.
…
Lin Qiao left the lab and quickly found a tall building, then hopped on top of it and then raised her head, uttering a long and resonant roar toward the sky.
“Roar!”
In the next second, zombie roars were heard from the other few areas in the base, scaring almost everyone in the base and making them stop doing whatever they were doing.
“What’s happening? What was that noise?”
“Was that… a zombie roar? How could it be possible! Why was it so close to us!”
“This is bad! Is there a high-leveled zombie in the base?”
“Alert! Alert!”
The people who were staying at home curiously made guesses while the zombie hunters who often left the base for missions all grew vigilant. The army instantly gave an order to set off the alert. The first thing they did was to check the base gates.
About ten miles away from the base, Lin Kui and the zombie crowd heard Lin Qiao’s roar. Following her voice, the zombies started shambling toward Sky Fire Base together as if they were suddenly switched on.
Lin Kui was standing on a tall building. He bared his teeth and gave a roar to the zombie crowd that sounded exactly like the roar of Lin Qiao.
“Roar!”
After giving out that roar, he immediately left the spot. He made a circle around the base and gave out a roar to gather the zombies within the area thirty miles around the base every time he landed in a new spot.
A ma.s.sive zombie crowd was gathering toward Sky Fire Base.
At that moment, the people in the base didn’t know about the incoming crisis yet. The soldiers had been searching through the base nervously because of the roars from Lin Qiao and the other zombies earlier. Meanwhile, they sought to report to Li Zhengye. However, they couldn’t find him.
“Where has Chief been?” The leader of the first corps in Sky Fire Base rushed into Chief’s office, but no one was there. So, he came out and asked the two soldiers by the door.
However, the two soldiers made no response to his question. They stood there motionlessly as if they didn’t hear or see him.
