Except for Xie Dong, a woman had also been attacking him. She was giving out a fierce vibe as well.
One against two…
As Lan Qijie paid slight attention to Jingyan, Xie Dong moved suddenly and swiftly rushed out. The daggers in his hands were swung at Lan Qijie, seeming like two beams of metallic light.
Lan Qijie hurriedly raised his hands to stop Xie Dong. Meanwhile, he gave the latter a heavy kick.
Puff! Right when he blocked Xie Dong’s attack and prepared to fight back, a zombie claw suddenly penetrated his chest.
He froze and confusedly looked at his own chest. The metallic l.u.s.ter quickly faded from his skin; red blood dripped off his chest and the claw.
Lan Qijie never thought that his metal defense would be broken. With disbelief, he looked at the hand which was still partially inside his chest, and the sharp nails on that hand. If he hadn’t been sensing a tearing pain from his chest, he would think that he was having an illusion.
Puff! That hand was pulled out of his body.
The strong wind left along with Lu Zhuofeng, and the area slowly quieted down.
Lan Qijie watched blood gus.h.i.+ng out his chest. His strength seemed to be flowing out of his body along with the blood. Next, he fell to the ground as his legs went limp.
Just now, he actually forgot that he wasn’t fighting against only one opponent.
Jingyan stood behind Lan Qijie and expressionlessly swung her hand to get rid of the blood on it. Then, she raised her head and pounced on the other Hidden Cloud City People.
Also expressionless, Xie Dong glanced at Lan Qijie’s eyes which were still open but had already lost their l.u.s.ter, then quickly turned and left.
Lan Qijie’s defense was only present on his skin. Long Qingying had told her people that metal-power possessors couldn’t possibly have their power cover every corner of their bodies, unless they were focused enough.
Therefore, Xie Dong attacked Lan Qijie face to face and diverted his attention, so that Jingyan could find an opportunity to stab him in the back.
Xie Dong was surprised that Jingyan succeeded so soon. Even though she hadn’t restored her human memory, many of her human instincts and habits had woken up already. Based on the battle that they fought together just now, Xie Dong could tell that she was a combat master!
On the other side, Zhou Chenghao hid in a building nearby. He soon noticed that Lan Qijie’s battle was over. As the wind stopped blowing, the male and female in camouflage suits rushed at him.
Right at that point, a dark figure flashed up behind him. Zhou Chenghao immediately turned with vigilance, then bent down and rolled sideways.
Puff! The dark figure swiftly jumped to where he was hiding in. The creature’s claws cut through the wall and left a series of deep slashes.
In the meantime, Lin Qiao flashed across roofs and streetlight tops, chasing behind Lu Zhuofeng.
Lu Zhuofeng was flying fleetingly in the air, faster than Lin Qiao who was running on the ground by many times over. Soon, the distance between the two grew longer.
He couldn’t see Lin Qiao because she was invisible. He glanced back and found that he was already miles away from where the motorcade was. That woman didn’t catch up with him. He believed that she couldn’t follow up even if she wanted to.
As a level-eight wind-power possessor, he was fast indeed. The distance between Lin Qiao and him had really become very long. However, Lin Qiao didn’t give up on chasing him, but had been following his scent all the time.
She didn’t think that he would be able to fly back to Hidden Cloud City Base which was over a thousand miles away.
At that time, the others from Hidden Cloud City who were left behind by Lu Zhuofeng were all hunted by all kinds of level three and four zombies. Without the protection from the powerful ones like Lu Zhuofeng, they fell into great disadvantages. Most of them were merely ordinary soldiers, and some were superpower possessors at level three or four. Their weapons couldn’t hurt those zombies at all.
In addition, those zombies were like a well-trained army. They didn’t hunt those people randomly, but attacked with clear purposes, smart strategies, and plans. They intended to kill every single one of those people.
Every time they killed a person, they would immediately turn to the next target without lingering at all.
Half an hour later, Lu Zhuofeng stopped moving. He was at level-eight, but still, flying in the air was very exhausting for him. The energy consumption didn’t affect him largely though. He was a level-eight superpower possessor after all.
He slowed down, mainly because he thought that the woman couldn’t catch up with him. However, he hadn’t noticed that a wisp of black mist was attached to his cloth on his back the whole time.
He was moving fast earlier. To hold itself together, the mist was staying motionless. Now, as he had slowed down, the mist split into two streams and then quietly drilled into his ears.
About twenty miles behind him, Lin Qiao was still moving forward at her full speed. When the dark mist drifted into Lu Zhuofeng’s ears, she curved her lips in a cold smile.
Two hours later, Lin Qiao finally shortened the distance between herself and Lu Zhuofeng. At that time, they had both gone across Shanxi Province and entered a suburb mountain area in Shaanxi Province.
It was already dark. Lu Zhuofeng landed on a flat area and prepared to eat something before moving.
It was all dark. Except for the two suitcases, Lu Zhuofeng didn’t have many other supplies. He didn’t even have a flashlight. In the darkness, he took out some hardtack and some water.
…
Near the All Beings Base, Mo Yan the zombie emperor stood on top of a building. Standing behind him were two level-seven zombies and the female zombie leader.
He quietly stood on the edge of the roof, gazing straight at All Beings Base.
Not far away from him on the roof of another building, the floor was covered in blood. A strong scent of blood could be sensed from the roof, mixed with waves of stench. Flies were buzzing all over the sky.
That was where he stayed and ate before.
Before long, two zombie dominators hopped onto the roof, each holding two living human beings. The four people were thrown to the ground together.
Thud!
Being thrown to the ground, one of the four fainted people frowned slightly and woke up.
He opened his eyes with confusion and saw the dark sky. Then, he looked around. It was all dark, but he could see a few blur figures around him.
He suddenly realized something. Popping his eyes, he abruptly struggled up from the ground, screamed with fright, “No… Don’t eat me! Don’t eat me! Please, please let me go! I… I can do anything you want! Please don’t eat me! Please…”
He knew who he was facing. It was so dark that he couldn’t see those creatures clearly. But earlier today, Yuan Tianxing had gone downstairs and told him and the other people about the zombie emperor and his subordinates.
Around All Being Base, a large group of zombie dominators, and about ten zombie kings and queens had surrounded the base.
The people in the base were defenseless. They weren’t able to escape either.
