Chapter 159: Stop It with A Surprise Attack
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
The level-five zombie wasn’t prepared for that sudden attack, so it failed to react timely. However, it still sharply sensed the incoming danger.
When Lin Qiao suddenly appeared and sprung up, it sensed her immediately. However, the swift Lin Qiao leaped to its side within a blink and swung her claws at it.
At that moment, the zombie leader tried its best to turn its body in the air and dodge her attack, but it was a little too late. The wind blades she created by s.h.i.+ning her claws could now reach much further than meters away.
After all, her appearance wasn’t the only thing that had changed.
Puff!
“Roar!” The level-five zombie burst in roars and fell onto the roof of the building nearby. It bent its legs to squat, hands on the ground and teeth bared; its dark eyes were popped to stare at Lin Qiao fiercely, seeming ready to pounce and bite her.
It wondered where Lin Qiao was from, and why it didn’t know that another zombie at its level was nearby.
The level-five zombies stared at Lin Qiao alertly while trying to figure out something about her. However, it wasn’t smart enough to find out why Lin Qiao would suddenly show up in this place. It had observed this area before, and no high-level zombie was found.
It fixed its eyes on Lin Qiao, not even noticing that her claws had left a few wounds on its thighs. It couldn’t feel pain anyway.
Lin Qiao landed on the roof and looked at this zombie from seven or eight meters away. She had put her sungla.s.ses back into her s.p.a.ce just now, so at the moment, she was quietly staring at the level-five zombie with her pair of black eyes from under the brim of her hat.
She was surprised to realize that she didn’t need to be afraid of level-five zombies anymore. Half a month ago when the ice-powered zombie leader was chasing her, she didn’t even dare to get out of her s.p.a.ce.
However, things had changed dramatically in just half a month.
She didn’t know what power this level-five zombie had, but judging by its reaction speed, it was rather weak. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be wounded by her claws so easily.
The zombie leader didn’t attack Lin Qiao immediately because it was quite confused. Just now, it felt that the suddenly appeared Lin Qiao was at the same level as itself. But now, it had sensed that she was actually a level lower, just an ordinary level-four superpowered zombie.
However, Lin Qiao’s vibe made it feel endangered. It couldn’t understand why that was the case, as Lin Qiao was apparently at a lower level. It stared at her while thinking, its expression turning less ferocious and more confused.
Nevertheless, its confused expression wouldn’t make Lin Qiao show any mercy. This zombie had a very strong hostility, and its entire body was radiating a thick scent of blood.
Lin Qiao could smell the blood of lower level zombies and human beings from it, which meant that this zombie often ate human beings! Besides, judging by the strong scent of blood from it, it had eaten human flesh not long ago.
The zombie thought for a while but failed to figure out a thing. After that, its expression changed, and it gave Lin Qiao a fierce roar.
“Roar!”
It warned her strongly by roaring, trying to scare her away.
‘It actually tried to warn me and drive me away,’ Lin Qiao thought.
She looked at the zombie, feeling like laughing. The zombie was so simple-minded that it actually believed Lin Qiao would leave after hearing its warning roar.
In the next second, she disappeared from where she was. She didn’t know what power the zombie had, so she decided to try attacking it to see how powerful it was, then kill it carefully.
The invisible Lin Qiao quietly came up behind the zombie.
When she disappeared before its eyes, the zombie leader was stunned again.
“Roar?” It popped its black eyes to look around, but didn’t see a trace of her. It had no idea that she was about to launch a lethal attack from behind it.
A swift invisible figure flashed across the air behind it, then a pair of claws were swung at the back of its head, stirring up a gust of wind.
The zombie leader instinctively sensed the attack and gave a start. It was already too late for it to dodge, so it had no other choice but to defend itself with its superpower.
Clang!
A rasping sound was heard.
Lin Qiao saw that the zombie’s head, neck, and back were all suddenly added with a metallic l.u.s.ter. Her attack didn’t cause any serious harm to it, only leaving a few white traces on its metallic skin.
As her attack didn’t work, she hurriedly leaped backward. She wasn’t disappointed, but stared at the zombie knowingly.
It turned out that the zombie had meter power, just like Long Qingying.
The zombie leader quickly turned around and hunched its back as it stared at Lin Qiao and uttered a growl, its eyes filled with a murderous intention.
“Roar!”
Before it roared out, Lin Qiao had already sensed its anger.
It was mad…
The zombie leader was really mad. After roaring at Lin Qiao, it swiftly and impatiently sprung up to pounce on her.
When the zombie charged, Lin Qiao didn’t flash into her s.p.a.ce. Instead, she quickly raised a claw to swing at the zombie from up to down. After that, she stepped back and turned around.
By turning around, she nimbly dodged the zombie leader’s metal claws.
The zombie leader’s claws had already become much longer than before. Those twenty-centimeters-long claws were perfectly straight, like five sharp steel blades.
Puff!
As Lin Qiao moved away, the zombie leader directly fell to the ground, its claws cutting deep into the ground. Judging by the noises it made, its claws had cut the ground as easily as cutting tofu.
Those claws were incredibly sharp!
It missed its target, but immediately after that, it turned back to slash its long claws at Lin Qiao while baring its teeth to roar deeply at her.
“Roar!”
Lin Qiao raised her eyebrows, sensing that the zombie’s voice was filled with anger and discontentment due to her sneak attack. It seemed that the zombie wanted to fight face to face against her.
It had actually challenged her!
She reached out her hands and moved her fingers. ‘Fight face to face? Alright, I’ll fulfill your wish before you die!’ Lin Qiao gave the zombie leader a cold smile.
“Roar!” The zombie leader roared again at her as it understood her meaning. It hunched its back deeper, eyes fixed straight on her. He seemed ready to dart at her and cut off her head at any time.
As same as the zombie leader, Lin Qiao moved her right foot backward for about a meter and then raised her claws, preparing to attack.
