Chapter 689: The Female Zombie And Her Son
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The virus from Lin Qiao’s blood could deliver quick effect to ordinary zombies. In just a couple of minutes, the female zombie had quieted down.
Her eyes turned black from white. She sat up with confusion and spent a few seconds in a daze. Suddenly, she started looking around, searching for something. Seeing the zombie child, she immediately focused her eyes on her.
She quickly crawled to the zombie child and held him in her arms, then looked around to observe the surrounding environment and people with vigilance. Her eyes were still filled with confusion. She instinctively wanted to protect the zombie child.
“Do you remember who you are?” By her side, Lin Qiao lowered her head and asked the female zombie.
Hearing her, the female zombie paused briefly and then started blinking. Most of the times, she was confused, but she seemed to occasionally think of something. Soon, she frowned while hesitating.
Lin Qiao knew that she might have remembered something before her death, but that memory was too unclear, so she couldn’t tell if it were real or not.
Lin Qiao pointed at the zombie child in her arms and asked her, “Who is he?”
The female zombie lowered her head and saw the zombie child. Suddenly, she widened her eyes as she thought for a moment, and then turned to look at Lin Qiao with a pair of clear eyes.
“Roar…” ‘My son…’
She responded.
“What about yourself?” Lin Qiao blinked and asked.
The female zombie shook her head. It seemed that she didn’t care who she was. Knowing that the little zombie in her arms was her son was enough for her. In her mind, she needed to protect her son.
Lin Qiao nodded, and didn’t say anything else. She turned and brought another cup of the drug, then pointed at the other’s son and said, “Give him this.”
The female zombie looked at her alertly.
She didn’t remember her own name. She didn’t remember many things. But still, she was vigilant.
Just now, Lin Qiao made her drink the drug, which brought her pain. She simply didn’t want her son to go through the same pain.
“This is good for him. It won’t hurt him,” said Lin Qiao to the female zombie. She looked at the zombie coldly and ordered her, “Let him drink this.”
Under Lin Qiao’s gaze, the female zombie felt as if she was pressed under a mountain, and that feeling was horrible. Under the pressure, she had no choice but to hand her son to Lin Qiao.
The little zombie was in a daze the whole time. He looked around blandly and made completely no reaction to his mother’s movements.
Lin Qiao opened his mouth and poured the drug in.
“Ah…” The little zombie swallowed the drug and then burst in a shrill scream. After that, he squatted on the ground and let out a series of strange screeches while scratching his head.
His screams might have aroused the female zombie’s instincts. She rushed up to the little zombie and scooped him up.
The little zombie twitched and struggled, nearly freeing himself from the female zombie’s arms.
Lin Qiao and the others quietly watched them and waited for the little zombie to get over the pain. After that, they brought them some meat slices to comfort them.
The little zombie screamed heart-breakingly, but as he got through the pain, he held a slice of meat with both hands and ate it happily.
Lin Qiao couldn’t help but gave him another slice.
At that point, the zombie old man came back. He held both hands behind his body and walked over leisurely. He was looking around, his eyes clear and bright.
Lin Qiao turned to him with surprise. Abruptly, she crossed her arms before her chest and asked, “Old man, who are you?”
The zombie old man gave her a sideways glance. Even though his eyes were purely black, Lin Qiao could clearly tell that he had just rolled his eyes.
He rolled his eyes!
He actually rolled his eyes at her!
Lin Qiao stared at the old man. She was a little stunned, and so were the others.
‘Old man, you’re a zombie, an old zombie! Don’t make a proud face like that! ‘ she said in her head.
Noticing the look in her and the others’ eyes, the old mand snorted coldly, and held his head even higher. Then, he roared at Lin Qiao, “Roar…” ‘Impolite kid! ‘
Lin Qiao slightly widened her eyes.
That old man actually called her an impolite kid! She was an adult! Yet, he called her a kid! She was so angry.
Lin Qiao suddenly got grumpy. She wanted so much to beat the old man!
“Roarrrrr…” My name is Guo Hong. Don’t call me old man. Call me Grandpa Guo!
The zombie old man clasped his hands behind his waist as he raised his head and said to Lin Qiao.
“That’s not gonna happen! I’m gonna call you Old Guo!” Lin Qiao glared at him and said.
“Roar? Roar!” ‘What? No, no! Old Guo? That sounds awful!’
Hearing Lin Qiao words, Guo Hong the zombie old man popped his eyes and stared at her with discontentment.
“Hm, I’m not gonna call you grandpa!” Lin Qiao rolled her eye and then turned and entered a house.
“Roar…” ‘Whatever! Also, the room where I just came from is mine now! Don’t let other people… I mean, zombies… Don’t let other zombies live in there!’
Guo Hong the zombie old man followed behind her and roared.
Lin Qiao ignored him, but turned and left the s.p.a.ce.
Lu Tianyi, Xie Dong, and the others looked at the old man curiously. Among all the zombies who had accepted Lin Qiao’s virus, he was the first one who restored his memory. And his character…
While they were thinking, the old man had circled in the house and come back out. He walked straight to Lu Tianyi, picked up a slice of meat from the plate, and put it into his mouth.
“Roar? Roar… em…” ‘This tastes good! I wonder what was the drug that the girl gave us. I remember everything now!’
While eating, the zombie old man roared and mumbled. After finis.h.i.+ng the first slice, he picked up another slice of meat. He didn’t seem to be able to stop eating. Lu Tianyi looked at him, thinking that maybe he should just give the old man the whole plate. But, before he took action, Guo Hong had grabbed the plate from his hands.
“Roar? Roar…” ‘No chopsticks? So unclean!’
Lu Tianyi didn’t know what to say.
The old man carried the plate with one hand. As he turned and prepared to go into the kitchen to find a pair of chopsticks, he saw the little zombie eagerly eyeing the plate in his hand.
He immediately waved at the little zombie.
In fact, not many meat slices were left in the plate.
…
Lin Qiao talked to Leng Xuantong once she came out of her s.p.a.ce. She asked him to culture the virus from her. There were over a hundred thousand ordinary zombies out there. It would take her a long time to feed the drug to each of them!
Then, she checked on the construction of the fence wall. She sent a group of metal-powered people to join the construction team. They had built the structure of the wall with metal, and then covered it with sand and cement. However, only a small number of metal-powered people were found in the base. With no other choice, Lin Qiao selected some metal-powered zombies from her s.p.a.ce, made them wear goggles and masks, and sent them to the construction site to help.
But still, she put them at a distance away from the wall and forbade them from approaching and hurting those human workers.
