Chapter 646: Lu Tianyi Upgrades
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At the bottom of the lake, Lin Qiao waited for Lu Tianyi to slowly come down.
After getting into the water, Lu Tianyi didn’t see Lin Qiao. The underwater world was like a vast expanse of greyness in his eyes, and the range of visibility was greatly restricted. He didn’t need to breathe, so he wouldn’t feel suffocated underwater. Also, it was the second time for him to be in the lake. He still remembered how he felt when he woke up in the lake.
The buoyancy was very little, and the resistance was strong. He felt his entire body strunggling under pressure.
At that moment, a hand suddenly reached up, grasped his ankle, and dragged him down. Lin Qiao was probably getting impatient. Lu Tianyi lowered his head and saw a hand coming out of the grayness, looking a little scary. However, he knew that the hand belonged to Lu Tianyu, so he let it hold his ankle.
Meanwhile, he automatically covered his crotch area with his hands.
Lin Qiao gathered the energy in the lake around her body, down at the lake bottom. She had gradually gained the power to control the energy in the lake.
Getting closer to Lu Tianyi, she found out what the young man was thinking about.
She had been feeling that he was very shy. Earlier on, some of the others had stripped themselves and gotten into the lake. None of them was as hesitant and reluctant as he was.
Lin Qiao was aware that Lu Tianyi cared a lot about Lu Tianyu. He was actually delighted when he found that Lu Tianyu was no longer doing evil deeds. Moreover, he had started to have antic.i.p.ations about her.
Now, as he had become a zombie, that antic.i.p.ation had turned into reliance.
Would he be disappointed if he found out that she was not his sister? Lin Qiao a.s.sumed that he would. After all, he now believed that Lu Tianyu had given up evil and turned to good. In the end, he would find out that it was just some other soul using his sister’s body.
Lin Qiao sighed. She felt that she was deceiving him, and she did not like how that felt. However, if she told him the truth, he might be really sad.
Down at the lake bottom, Lin Qiao put a level-three zombie nucleus in Lu Tianyi’s hands and then said to him by using her will power— ‘Eat it.’
Lu Tianyi took the zombie nucleus over and felt different for the first time. He instinctively wanted the energy from the lake. On hearing Lin Qiao’s instruction, she put the zombie nucleus into his mouth without thinking.
Only after doing that did he realize what he just did. Thinking that the zombie nucleus was dug out of a zombie’s head, he instantly wanted to throw up. But right at that moment, his stomach sensed a wave of energy, which made his feelingless body s.h.i.+ver slightly.
Lin Qiao pressed a palm on his back while reaching her other hand toward the sphere of energy by her side. Then, she started to absorb the energy and send it into Lu Tianyi’s body.
Two different types of energies were mixed together and filtered, then started to gush up toward Lu Tianyi’s head.
Lu Tianyi was only a level-two zombie. Even though he had his memory and will, his body could not reach level-three directly after he turned into a zombie. But now, with Lin Qiao’s help, he easily broke into level-three.
Before he could feel anything, Lin Qiao put a water-powered zombie nucleus into his mouth.
The strong energy spread inside his body and then was channeled to his brain. Only when the energy gathered to a certain degree and generated a nucleus could Lu Tianyi be counted as a level-four zombie.
After merely a couple of hours, Lu Tianyi had successfully broken into level four. Lin Qiao didn’t try to push him up to a higher level, as she was worried that he might fail to handle the energy from the virus and end up having his intelligence damaged.
Thus, she dragged Lu Tianyi out of the water. He went into the water with his underpants on, but by now, those underpants were gone.
Lin Qiao turned her eyes away from him, then dropped him by the lake. She first put on her own clothes, then picked up his clothes and lifted him back up.
Xie Dong, Lin Kui, and the smart zombie watched Lin Qiao drag Lu Tianyi, who was naked and about a foot taller than herself, back toward the house from the lakeside.
Xie Dong calmly walked over and took Lu Tianyi over from Lin Qiao’s hands along with his clothes, then brought him toward the house. Meanwhile, the young male zombie circled around Lu Tianyi with surprise, because he clearly felt that Lu Tianyi was already at his level. He wouldn’t be able to defeat him!
Lin Kui was looking at the composed Lin Qiao with a weird look as she brought a naked man out of the water so calmly and didn’t seem to feel awkward at all.
Also…
He glanced at Lu Tianyi and Xie Dong who were moving toward the house.
That man was only a level-two zombie at first. However, after spending a short while in the lake with that mysterious Miss. Lu, he was two levels higher than before. Currently, he had already become a level-four, superpowered zombie.
With that thought, Lin Kui again glanced at the lake. He felt a strong repulsion, which made him want to stay away from the lake. Facing the lake, he felt suppression, and had a sense of crisis.
What was in the lake? He could tell that none of the other creatures in the s.p.a.ce were willing to go near the lake.
The zombies in the building, the ones behind the building, and the two creatures in the woods, and even the tens of mutated roe deers, had all been staying away from the lake.
Lin Qiao walked into the bathroom, picked up a towel to dry her hair. After that, she walked downstairs and flashed away from the building. In the next second, she showed up on the gra.s.sland on the other side of the lake.
As she suddenly appeared, those roe deers who had gathered together immediately ran away.
However, she was faster. She swiftly turned around and grasped a roe deer which attempted to run away from her.
The mutated roe deer was quite fast, but still, it failed to react as quickly as Lin Qiao did.
On the other side of the lake, Lin Kui stood by the entrance of the building and watched Lin Qiao flash across the lake, then catch a roe deer and bring it back. He was surprised.
He had been wondering why the female zombie kept tens of roe deers in her s.p.a.ce.
Seeing Lin Qiao catch the roe deer and bring it back to this side of the lake, his curiosity was aroused. So, he fixed his eyes on her.
In a short while, he was stunned.
He saw her quickly and neatly cut the roe deer’s throat and let out its blood, then skin it. Then, she cut the roe deer open without breaking its internal organs. That was not the point. The point was that she then cut off a foreleg of the roe deer and made a bite at it! She ate it!
‘What the h.e.l.l! Why is the zombie eating a mutated animal? No, I mean, it tastes awful, doesn’t it?’ he thought. He too had tried to eat animals to quench his hunger, but he threw up after just the first bite. It tasted indescribably bad.
At first, he thought that only mutated animals tasted bad, so he caught some healthy animals and tried them. The result turned out to be the same.
