Chapter 193: The Zombies Were Scared Away
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
The people in Lin Qiao’s s.p.a.ce were silently looking at each other at the moment, as they hadn’t figured out what was happening! A man who reacted relatively faster saw Lu Tianyi by his side and asked immediately, “Captain! Is this an independent s.p.a.ce?”
Lu Tianyi glanced at the lake, then at the gra.s.sland and those neatly placed fancy furniture pieces, and…the stove nearby. He and Kong Qingming got here first, and both of them had carefully observed the s.p.a.ce twice. Hearing his teammate’s question, he responded with hesitation, “I think…so. But, did you see the one who brought you in?”
The others shook their heads, but Kong Qingming said, “He’s way too fast. I only saw a dark green shadow at first. When he came in again with the others, I saw that he was wearing camouflage.”
The others all turned to him.
“How did he manage to quietly send us here? The few zombie leaders barely reacted. How did he do that?”
Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming glanced at each other, then the latter said, “We want to know that too.” Then, he counted his teammates and continued, “Three of us are still out there.”
Reminded by him, the others looked around and confirmed that only ten people were in the s.p.a.ce.
One of the two who came in the last said, “I don’t think the owner of this s.p.a.ce can save the three of them, because the three zombie leaders got nervous before we came in. They might have been stimulated when the two of us disappeared right in front of their eyes. I guess they’ve already launched some ma.s.sive attacks by now.”
Lu Tianyi had his eyes fixed on the lake for a while, then he turned to look at the gra.s.s. Suddenly, he gave a start as though he had seen something strange. Then, he turned to walk toward the gra.s.sland.
As he moved, the others followed him.
After getting close, Lu Tianyi confirmed what he had seen.
“Are these…mutant strawberries? Eh…broccoli? Lettuce?”
“Look, large pumpkins! They’re all mutants, aren’t they!”
“And potatoes, a pile of them! What are these for? They’re all mutant!”
Looking at the thriving strawberry plants and vegetables, and those barely touched pumpkins and potatoes, the group of people was utterly confused.
At that moment, a tiny gray figure leaped out of the strawberry field, then jumped into the gra.s.ses and disappeared without a trace.
“Em…if I’m right, that should be a rabbit!”
“You’re right, I saw it too!”
The group of people watched the rabbit disappear in the gra.s.ses and just stood by the strawberry plants, stunned.
On the outside, Lin Qiao stood five meters away from the fiery tornado. She felt hot near the fire, so she had no choice but to keep a distance from it. It seemed that the three zombie leaders weren’t going to kill the three people. Lin Qiao thought for a moment, then showed her face.
“Roar!” The moment she showed up, the three zombies roared out loud at her as one of them sprung out of the fire and charged at her.
She looked at the zombie which had its whole body wrapped in flames; it wasn’t that fast in her eyes. She calmly stood still, and when the zombie nearly touched her, she moved suddenly to its side and raised a claw to attack it.
Boom!
The fire zombie didn’t expect Lin Qiao to be able to easily dodge its attack, because it hadn’t sensed any threatening vibe from her. Before the zombie could turn back, Lin Qiao’s claw landed on its back.
She didn’t stop there, but crooked her fingers and pulled her hands back. Then, her sharp claws cut into the zombie’s body.
Puff!
After one collision, the fire zombie thudded against the ground and its fire died off. Lin Qiao still didn’t stop; instead, she conveniently raised a hand and released a thick stream of black mist, which was no longer manifesting in mere thin wisps.
The dark mist descended on the zombie’s body on the ground, then wrapped it up. In the next moment, the zombie’s body was gone without a trace, and only its head remained there.
After that, Lin Qiao waved her hand toward the fiery tornado, following which, the black mist rolled it way.
After the fire zombie died, the flame in the tornado faded away gradually as well. Soon, only the wind was left spinning.
As the black mist gushed out of Lin Qiao’s palm, the other two zombie leaders who were guarding the three human beings showed fear for the first time. They bent lower and lower, and their roars slowly turned into deep growls.
As the fire was gone, Lin Qiao approached them along with the black mist. The two zombie leaders’ voices contained a message of retreating. However, Lin Qiao still maintained seventy percent of vigilance toward them. She felt that the two zombies were preparing to give up on their preys and run. Hence, she decided to let them run, but still needed to prevent them from killing the three people before running.
She strengthened the black mist that swallowed everything within the area within a radius of ten meters. The asphalt road, the stones on the ground, the broken vehicles, the plants, the streetlights…everything in the surrounding was quickly devoured by the black mist.
The black mist was, in fact, an embodiment of energy. When Lin Qiao closed her eyes, she could see the mist in a purple color and with a weird l.u.s.ter. But with her physical eyes open, she only saw the thick blackness of it.
She controlled the black mist by controlling the energy in it. The black mist spread slowly, going down toward the tornado created by the two zombies. As the cloud of mist which was turning huger and huger, thicker and thicker while pressing down, the two zombies finally howled and turned to run.
“Em…They, ran?” Watching one of the three fierce zombies being killed within a blink and the other two scared way, the three people who were suddenly saved from the hopeless situation looked at each other, all dumbfounded.
As the two ran away, Lin Qiao composedly took back the black mist. Earlier on when she released the mist, she had sensed that the two zombies were afraid. That was why she only sent the black mist slowly toward them to give them a greater pressure with the slow motion of the mist.
The result was obvious. The two zombies were only as smart as six or seven years old children. Facing something that was life-threatening, they would easily get scared and run.
For that reason, Lin Qiao expanded the black mist and sent it slowly toward the zombies. At last, the two zombies couldn’t stand the pressure anymore, leaving their preys to run.
