Chapter 77: The Writing Zombie
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
In fact, Wu Chengyue and Meng Yue had just arrived. Once they got here, they saw the familiar female zombie dip her claws into the snake blood and then put into her mouth. It wasn’t a beautiful scene, but was definitely a little weird.
Both of them were quietly observing the zombie, which soon discovered them even though they had restrained their vibes as much as they could. Wu Chengyue was powerful, so once he restrained his vibe, almost no zombies and superpowered human beings who were weaker than him could sense his presence. Unlike him, Meng Yue used a special way to hide her vibe. She merged it with the vibes of the surrounding plants, as if she was hiding her own vibes among that of plants. Therefore, it was pretty difficult for anyone to sense her vibe now.
At that point, not even a level-six zombie or superpowered human being could sense Meng Yue’s vibe easily.
Lin Qiao became alert the moment she saw these two people. She stared at Wu Chengyue, her eyes filled with fear, hatred, and vigilance. She was worried that this man might suddenly strike her with lightning again without saying anything.
Even though Lin Qiao’s eyes were purely black, Wu Chengyue still felt her strong hatred toward himself hiding under her calm expression.
Meng Yue looked at Wu Chengyue, then at Lin Qiao in confusion. After finding that Lin Qiao was merely alert toward them without showing the obvious aggressiveness and ferocity that the other high-level zombies would show at the sight of them, she started observing her with curiosity.
Last time, this female zombie disappeared before she could see her face clearly. But now, after giving a close look, she found that this zombie was truly ugly.
And, the zombie had actually changed her clothes. She was now wearing a training suit which looked like men’s wear. Her burnt hair were unbrushed, covering her face. Her face under the hair was barely visible, but Meng Yue still saw the large scars on her face.
Looking at Lin Qiao’s hair and realizing that it was burnt by Wu Chengyue’s lightning, Meng Yue wanted to laugh. ‘Look at her expression. She must want to hit Chief back with lightning too to vent her anger!’
After witnessing Lin Qiao make that ridiculously large snake disappear within a blink, Meng Yue and Wu Chengyue now confirmed that she was a s.p.a.ce-powered zombie.
Judging by the size of that snake, Meng Yue felt that it was quite powerful. She glanced around at the traces it caused, learning how strong it truly was.
However, the s.p.a.ce-powered zombie had no wounds on her body. Not to mention wounds, even her clothes were perfectly undamaged, as if she hadn’t suffered any attack at all.
Lin Qiao remained silent and moveless, and so did Wu Chengyue and Meng Yue. They simply stood seven or eight meters away from each other, quietly staring at each other.
In fact, it was very easy for Lin Qiao to run away now. After all, it would only take her a moment to enter her s.p.a.ce, and Wu Chengyue couldn’t be faster than her, no matter how fast he could be. However, at that moment she was thinking about the little one, Junjun, and her son.
Since the little one’s father had found her, she thought that it would be alright for her to just give the kid back to him. That was his child anyway. She took the girl because she was angry earlier, and also because she was too lazy to send her back, as doing that would cost her time and energy. But now, her anger had calmed as she had already taken the child so far away. However, she still wanted an apology from Wu Chengyue. She couldn’t let him strike her with lightning and pay no price for it, could she? She was nicely sending his child back to him; but instead of being grateful to her, he actually struck her with lightning! He had to apologize to her!
Wu Chengyue gazed at the zombie for a while, also feeling very strange.
‘Does this female zombie actually know how to change clothes? Where’s the ugly and dirty dress she wore the last time? Since when have zombies learned to care about their appearances? They’re supposed to be indifferent to that!’ He thought.
He also felt that the female zombie was still angry at him because he struck her with lightning last time!
Wu Chengyue was a patient man, so he was observing Lin Qiao curiously at that moment. Meng Yue felt that Lin Qiao was an interesting zombie too, so she was silently observing her as well.
However, Lin Qiao wasn’t a patient zombie. She was waiting for Wu Chenyue and Meng Yue to say something, but they didn’t. She waited for three seconds… five seconds… then ten seconds; yet, neither of the two said anything.
She wondered why the two kept staring at her without saying a word or attacking. She couldn’t sense their thoughts, so she felt that the atmosphere had begun turning a little weird.
At last, the impatient zombie suddenly raised a hand. A notebook and a pen appeared in her hand. Then, she began writing, and the two in front of her widened their eyes and gazed at her in disbelief.
Watching Lin Qiao writing with a pen like a human being, Wu Chengyue and Meng Yue were deeply stunned. At that moment, they really needed someone to tell them if what they saw was real or not.
Wu Chengyue unwittingly looked out of his eye corner at Meng Yue, who sensed his gaze and glanced back at him. Neither of them seemed to believe what they had seen.
‘The zombie is writing! That zombie in front of us was writing! Since when have zombies become so smart that they can actually write?’
While Wu Chengyue and Meng Yue were silently communicating through eyes, Lin Qiao finished writing. She ripped the piece of paper off from the notebook, then put the notebook and the pen into her pocket. After that, she slowly squatted, picked up a small piece of stone and wrapped it with the paper. Then, she wadded the paper up.
Next, she threw the wad of paper at Wu Chengyue’s face, who caught the wad of paper thrown at his face, feeling speechless.
Meng Yue, who watched that happen, shared the same feeling with him.
“Open it!” From what she had observed, she learned that Lin Qiao was different from other zombies. She looked weird, but really didn’t have any intent of killing toward her or Wu Chengyue. And just now, the zombie wrote something with a pen, which was unbelievable.
She really wanted to know what Lin Qiao had written on the paper. However, Wu Chengyue paused in astonishment after catching the wad of paper. Seeing that, Meng Yue couldn’t help but urge him out of curiosity.
After that, he silently unwrapped the paper and threw the stone away. Meng Yue leaned over and saw a few lines on the paper written with clear handwriting.
‘Does striking people with lightning feel nice? Apologize! Or, you won’t see the little one again! You won’t be able to do anything to me if I don’t let you see her! Apologize!’
Wu Chengyue was again speechless.
“Ha…” Meng Yue couldn’t help but laugh when she read the first line. She was holding such a deep grudge!
Wu Chengyue fell in silence as he found that it a little difficult for him to process what was happening. Earlier on, he met a zombie which acted like a human being, and he accidentally struck her with lightning. And now, the zombie actually wanted his apology!
‘What the h.e.l.l? A zombie which can write and ask for an apology? And… it’s threatening me! When did zombies become so much like human beings?’ He just couldn’t understand.
“It’s threatening you! But, its handwriting is pretty!” Meng Yue said smilingly.
After reading the note, Wu Chengyue looked at the zombie in front of him, which had a barely visible face, then asked Meng Yue, “Do you think she can understand what we said?”
Hearing his words, both Meng Yue and Lin Qiao rolled their eyes. But of course, their eye-rolling wasn’t the same.
Meng Yue rolled her eyes like any normal human being would do, while Lin Qiao simply raised her head to glance at the sky.
Wu Chengyue went speechless once again, feeling despised.
