Chapter 574: Viney Wakes Up
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In fact, no one knew that Wu Chengyue had broken into level-eight. He didn’t even tell Xiao Yunlong about that.
When Lin Qiao told him that the man who attacked Yan Fangyu was at level-eight a couple of days ago, he wasn’t surprised. He had that guess, but had no way of confirming it.
The day he arrived at the Upper City Base, he had sensed a level-eight vibe for a moment. It disappeared very soon, and it was from outside Upper City District. Therefore, even though he noticed it at first, he never sensed it again.
Clearly, the owner of that vibe had hidden it.
When he heard from the female zombie that Yan Fangyu and the two young men might have had an accident on their way back to the base, he started thinking about that vibe.
So, when Qiu Lili brought back the two severely injured young men and told the others that the attacker was a level-seven being, Wu Chengyue had made his judgment. Thereafter, when Lin Qiao told him that that man was actually at level-eight, he wasn’t surprised.
He was planning to tell her about it before leaving. However, she found it out before he said anything.
It was unexpected to him that she would actually try to upgrade two level-six men to level-seven at one time. Obviously, she had sensed some pressure. In fact, Wu Chengyue understood her. She herself had upgraded not long ago, so she could not upgrade again. For that reason, she had no choice but to improve the people around her, to strengthen the base as much as possible.
Wu Chengyue didn’t know how she would do it, but he believed that she was able to do it.
At that moment, Lin Qiao, whom he believed in, heard a voice from her mind.
‘Mama, Mama, you’re tired. Let Viney do it!’
Then, Lin Qiao sensed a strange force coming out of her lower belly, smoothly taking her place to keep the energy inside Lin Feng’s body under control.
The lake had always been Viney’s base. Viney easily controlled Lin Feng’s condition through Lin Qiao’s hands, then started channeling the energy which had acc.u.mulated and jammed inside his body.
Lin Qiao sighed with relief. She could finally get through this, as Viney had woken up.
Viney gathered all the surrounding energy, and then Lin Feng’s condition started to change.
Under Lin Qiao’s maintenance over the past few days, Lin Feng had absorbed most of the energy into the nucleus in his head. However, there were too many impurities in his body, and those had been absorbed by his nucleus as well.
Now, Viney was going to break into his head to clear out those impurities. That job should better be done by Lin Feng himself, but as he was unconscious, someone else had to do it for him.
Thankfully, Viney had a great will power, which allowed her to easily enter Lin Feng’s brain, as the latter wasn’t alert. Then, she started squeezing out the negative energies inside his body.
After pus.h.i.+ng out all the impurities, she exited Lin Feng’s head and began pus.h.i.+ng in all the good energy inside him. Before long, Lin Feng’s entire body shook. Next, an energy s.h.i.+eld appeared, wrapping him up and pus.h.i.+ng Lin Qiao away.
‘Mama, Mama, we did it! We did it!’ Viney’s happy voice was heard.
‘Thank you, sweety ,” Lin Qiao said to her with a sincere smile.
Meanwhile, she swam upward and soon popped her head out of the water. Lin Feng was left in the water alone. He would come up by himself when he woke up. For the time being, no one should touch him.
The lake surface had already quieted down. After coming out of the lake, Lin Qiao saw Lu Tianyi, who was standing on the balcony in the small building.
She let out a long breath. In order to suppress the energy inside Lin Feng’s body, she had really exhausted herself these days. At that point, Viney had sensed Lu Tianyi as well. With curiosity, she asked Lin Qiao, ‘Eh? Mama, isn’t that one of those people who were here last time? Why did he become a zombie?’
Lin Qiao wrapped herself up with the black mist. While bending over to pick up her clothes, she responded, ‘Oh, a bad guy killed him. Viney, are you feeling alright? Is there anything wrong?’
Viney’s voice sounded calm and stable, without any negative emotions. ‘I’m fine! Ah, I sensed the little one’s vibe from the outside! The little one! The little one!’
Lin Qiao replied helplessly, “You’re so sensitive that you can even sense her from here.”
‘Yeah, even though I’m inside Mama’s belly, I still share Mama’s sensations!’ Viney said proudly.
“Alright,” Lin Qiao touched her belly, then headed toward the small building.
Seeing Lin Qiao come out of the water, Lu Tianyi finally stopped worrying. He saw her talking to herself by the lake, and didn’t know what she was saying.
There was a long distance between him and Lin Qiao. However, his hearing was many times better than before, as he had turned into a zombie. So, he could still hear Lin Qiao’s murmurs.
Lin Qiao walked into the building and said to Lu Tianyi, who was still on the balcony, “Come down, I’ll give you a mission!”
Lu Tianyi came downstairs confusedly, carrying that unhappy little tiger.
The little tiger was weak and injured. Although it had healed almost completely, it still couldn’t free itself from Lu Tianyi’s hands. That made it very upset.
So now, the little creature had been angrily biting Lu Tianyi’s arm. Lu Tianyi didn’t care, and let it bite him as hard as it wanted.
“You may not be able to go out lately. Have you seen the field in this place? You can grow things here too. So, I want you to grow these seeds for me, with the soil and water in this s.p.a.ce,” Lu Tianyi flicked her hand, then handed those seeds that Wu Chengyue gave her to Lu Tianyi.
Lu Tianyi was in charge of the farm work in Sea City Base. And now, he could still put his skills in use.
Hearing Lin Qiao mention the water in the base, Lu Tianyi slightly frowned, then turned to her with a puzzled look.
“Oh, I’ll fetch the water for you. You don’t need to get close to the lake,” Lin Qiao understood that he was not able to approach that lake, and clearly knew how he felt.
‘That’ll be good.’ Lu Tianyi nodded. Meanwhile, he reached out a hand to take over the seeds.
“Do you like it?” Lin Qiao looked at the little tiger which was carried in his arms, then asked with surprise.
He was a man, yet he liked the fluffy little tiger.
‘I was bored, and it’s energetic,’ he thought.
He laughed, then raised a hand and stroked the little tiger’s round head, then smilingly sensed the intensifying anger of the little creature.
At that moment, Lin Qiao suddenly shouted at a wall, “You! Get over here!”
The smart zombie who had just flinched came out from behind the wall, lowering his head as he walked to Lin Qiao.
Clap!
Lin Qiao raised a hand and slapped the back of his head, then pointed at Lu Tianyi and said to the zombie, “Do not think that you can bully him because you’re at a higher level than him right now. He’ll upgrade faster than you. When he grows stronger, he might torture you to death!”
