Chapter 97: Grow Further Stronger
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
At that moment, a white figure showed up by Lin Qiao’s side.
Qiu Lili came up to the roof and stood on a stone mound beside Lin Qiao. She looked at the latter from head to toe with confusion, as if she was confirming something.
Lin Qiao was a little surprised when seeing the look in Qiu Lili’s face. It seemed that Qiu Lili had sensed the change of her body.
“Aw?”‘What happened?’ Qiu Lili looked at the dead body of the female zombie which was lying on the ground, then asked curiously.
She sensed that Lin Qiao’s vibe had changed largely in a strange way. It didn’t just grow much stronger than before, but was added with something weird, which even gave her a sense of danger. Even though that sense of danger wasn’t strong yet, she felt that if that vibe grew further stronger, Lin Qiao would become hard to deal with, even for herself.
Even as a level-six powerful zombie, Qiu Lili felt that Lin Qiao was somehow dangerous. However, Lin Qiao didn’t know that she could make other zombies feel that way yet.
Perhaps, Qiu Lili was able to detect the special vibe of Lin Qiao because she was a zombie queen. The zombies below level-six wouldn’t probably be able to sense it.
Lin Qiao clasped her own hands, feeling that an energy was concentrated in her palms. She spread her fingers and popped her claws. Her black, metal-l.u.s.tered claws had now turned light-silver.
When seeing Lin Qiao’s claws, Qiu Lili sensed a coldness from her heart. Meanwhile, that sense of danger she had grew stronger.
“Aw-Goro!”‘I feel that your claws are so dangerous!’ Qiu Lili uttered a strange voice from her throat to tell Lin Qiao that.
Lin Qiao nodded and communicated with her through her eyes that she herself felt the same way. She then turned to swing her claws at the halfway-broken wall behind her. A few beams of sharp light flashed across the air, toward that wall.
After a series of slight noises, the sounds of stones falling onto the ground could be heard.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lin Qiao and Qiu Lili both felt speechless when watching the wall two meters away being cut into pieces by a random move of the former. Lin Qiao now felt that the pain she suffered in the lake was nothing!
Before, the air blades created by her claws could only reach about ten centimeters away. But now, they were actually able to hurt things two meters away! That meant, the effective range of her attack had expanded to two meters! She was able to cut off her enemies’ heads from two meters away now!
Besides, that strong and sharp air blade could even cut ordinary zombies into pieces.
She raised her head to sniff around, realizing that she was now able to sense the scents from a very long distance away, meaning that range of her senses had expanded largely as well.
She felt that all her abilities had improved a lot, but still didn’t know which level she was at.
Was she a level-four s.p.a.ce-powered zombie?
She took out the notepad and wrote— ‘What level do you think I’m currently at?’
Qiu Lili looked at her with confusion. She didn’t understand the meaning of Lin Qiao’s question, and couldn’t sense her zombie level and energy grade.
She shook her head, told Lin Qiao that she couldn’t sense it.
Lin Qiao remained silent for a few seconds, then turned to go downstairs. She made a leap and covered an entire staircase, feeling that it was quite an easy thing to do. While doing that, she sensed no danger at all, as if she was jumping off merely one stair step. On landing, her feet fell back to the ground lightly and stably, and her toes felt no counterforce from the ground.
No wonder the other high-level zombies all leaped as high and far as monkeys.
Lin Qiao had tried that before, but when she jumped down the entire staircase, her feet went numb. She suffered no pain, but wasn’t able to control her feet for a while.
Therefore, she was jealous of the other high-level zombies sometimes. She seemed to be at the same level as they were, but for some reason, she wasn’t able to leap around as nimbly as them. But this time, she sensed nothing after jumping off the stairs. Her feet weren’t numbed, and she could still control them.
She also felt that she could actually jump down from higher places, that her legs were enabling her to cover a much longer distance safely than the staircase, with one leap.
She leaped down the stairs like a rabbit, and had also become much faster than before. So, within ten seconds, she came down to the third floor from the roof. After that, she directly leaped down from the hole on the wall which was caused by the female zombie’s tornado.
She didn’t even need to make a roll when landing, but stood straight on the ground.
When jumping down and landing, she couldn’t even sense her own weight. She even felt that she had fallen from the air rather slowly, airily landing on the ground like a leaf…
Was she really that light? She was at least forty kilograms, but how could she possibly drift down from the third floor like a leaf? She pictured that scene in her mind and found it quite weird.
In another way, Lin Qiao felt that her reactions had become faster, and the strength of her legs had grown greater. Therefore, her body became nimbler.
More precisely, she was like a cat.
When Lin Qiao landed on the ground, she saw Qiu Lili standing on a pillar beside her. It seemed that the latter had been waiting for her since long ago.
She knew that Qiu Lili had wind power, but had no idea how the latter upgraded herself to such a high level. She was rather curious about that, but now wasn’t the time for her to ask the question.
She touched her own face. Now, she needed to find more high-level zombies, because she wanted to fix her face and make herself look like a normal human being again.
Then, the rubbed her dry and disheveled hair, thinking that maybe she should have a haircut.
However, she then touched her own chest. Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s were almost flat, and she was wearing menswear. Added with the fact that Lu Tianyu was five feet and eight inches tall, she would look just like a man if she cut her hair…
She sighed silently, thinking of her tangled hair and her ghost-like face as she felt that looking like a man was better than that. Most importantly, she wouldn’t be needing to wash her long hair every single day after cutting them.
She wanted to cut her hair since long ago, so now, she finally made the decision. She didn’t need to cover her face anyway, because even if she covered it, it could still scare the children!
She thought for a moment, then recalled that she had seen a pair of scissors when packing Qiu Lili’s stuff! She didn’t know what Qiu Lili needed scissors for, but she wanted to borrow it now.
She took out the notepad and wrote— ‘I want to borrow your scissors.’
After that, she turned and entered her s.p.a.ce, leaving Qiu Lili in confusion.
‘What does she want to borrow the scissors for? And, aren’t my things all in her s.p.a.ce?’ Qiu Lili looked around bewilderedly while thinking, as she had no choice but to wait for the other to come out.
