Chapter 308: You’re Getting Stronger Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The energy inside her head now was mostly from Wu Yueling, and not much of her own energy was left inside her body. This might be the reason why the energy inside her brain was extra active, and caused some instability.
Liu Jun turned and carried Wu Yueling to a couch, still wearing a confused look. Except for the unstable energy, there was another thing strange about Lin Qiao, but she didn’t mention it.
Lin Qiao’s vibe had changed again. It was added with a strange scent, which was different from Lin Qiao’s zombie scent. Lin Qiao’s vibe now contained some kind of vitality, but not as fresh and alive as the vibes of humans.
Judging by Lin Qiao’s reaction just now, she didn’t seem to realize that herself. Also, the new scent of Lin Qiao was a little like that of Wu Yueling.
Lin Qiao was a little confused while watching Liu Jun leave. She sniffed at herself again, then began putting clothes on.
After quickly dressing herself, she walked to Liu Jun.
“How long have we spent down there?” she asked.
Liu Jun told Tong Tong to go and play, as he was getting bored beside her by himself. After that, she held Wu Yueling in her arms while toweling the little girl’s hair. Hearing Lin Qiao’s question, she glanced at her watch and said, “About three days.”
Lin Qiao was surprised by that answer. “It’s been three days? So long? No wonder Viney was so exhausted that she even wanted to sleep.”
Liu Jun nodded.
“Ugh, Lili and the others should have returned, right? I think I should send the little one back to her father first. I only left a note while bringing her in. We don’t know what that man might do,” said Lin Qiao.
She suddenly realized that Qiu Lili wouldn’t enter the s.p.a.ce after bringing Yuan Tianxing and the others back.
While thinking, she walked to the couch and saw that Liu Jun had dried Wu Yueling’s hair a little. Her hair weren’t completely dry yet, but they had stopped dripping water at least.
The little one was fine now, even though she was still in sleep; she would wake up as a healthy little girl soon.
Lin Qiao walked to the closet, found a large T-s.h.i.+rt, and put it on Wu Yueling.
“I’ll go out to bring Lili in, then send this little one back,” she said.
Liu Jun looked at her and nodded.
Lin Qiao turned and flashed out, after which, she turned herself invisible and hopped onto a building in the outskirts of the base, then stood on the roof to sense Qiu Lili and Mengmeng’s location.
After locating them, she directly leaped toward that direction.
Qiu Lili and Mengmeng weren’t far away, only hundreds of meters from the fence wall of the base. One of them was able to turn invisible, while the other one was at an amazingly high level. So, as they restrained their vibes, not even the three level-seven superpowered beings in the base could sense them.
Before long, Lin Qiao showed up in front of them.
Qiu Lili and Mengmeng were squatting on the top floor of a building, silently counting the ants in that corridor.
“I wonder what’s happening to Qiao. It has been three days, but she’s still in there,” Qiu Lili pouted and said while driving the ants that were deviating from the ant group back into the crowd with a stick.
“Roar!” Mengmeng abruptly roared at her. ‘She brought the little girl in!’
“Yeah, we don’t know who that little kid is. Why did Qiao save her?”
“Roar!” Mengmeng growled unhappily. ‘I’ve seen that little girl before. Last time, she took her away from me.’
Qiu Lili looked at her with surprise while saying, “Eh? When were you with that little girl?”
This time, Mengmeng didn’t say anything, but quietly stared at the ants on the ground.
“Eh?” Qiu Lili looked at her confusedly. As Mengmeng refused to say another word, she lowered her head to continue counting ants. Then, she found that the little ant which she had just sent back into the crowd was now running away again.
Next, Lin Qiao showed up before the two of them and said, “She stole that little girl when I was in Hangzhou. If I hadn’t seen them, that little thing would have suffered severely while living with her.”
Once she showed up, Qiu Lili and Mengmeng both raised their heads to look at her, then sprung up from the ground.
“Wow! You’re finally out! Eh? You’re stronger again!” Upon seeing her, Qiu Lili was happy at first. But then, she confusedly made two circles around the other, observing her from head to toe.
Lin Qiao nodded, then raised a hand and spread her fingers while responding, “Sort of. My level remained the same, but I’m feeling that my body has indeed become stronger.” While speaking, she abruptly swung an arm toward the outside.
A shrill swis.h.i.+ng noise was heard, after which, a corner of the building in the front suddenly tilted, then slowly fell to the ground.
Boom! The building corner smashed into the ground from the height, falling into pieces and stirring up a cloud of dust.
Lin Qiao measured the distance with her eyes and found that building was at least twenty meters away from her.
Qiu Lili and Mengmeng both spent a moment staring at her with surprise, then turned toward the building which now had a corner missing. The cut surface on the building was strangely smooth, as if that corner was cut off by a giant knife as easily as cutting a piece of tofu.
“That’s not a zombie claw anymore! Why can you cut off things so far away? Why can’t I do the same?” Qiu Lili enviously said to her, then raised her claw and swung toward the outside as well; however, nothing happened.
Mengmeng did the same, and still nothing happened.
At that moment, Lin Qiao turned up her palm. A stream of black mist rose from that palm, then spread into a small sphere, floating upon it. The black mist that she released was only in the form of a small sphere, but Mengmeng and Qiu Lili both automatically took two steps backward to stay away from it the moment they saw it. As a matter of fact, Mengmeng even hid behind Qiu Lili.
Lin Qiao couldn’t sense the threat from her black mist. Seeing the moves of the two, she asked, “Is it so scary?” After saying that, she took the mist back.
“You should try it on a zombie king or queen. You’ll know,” said Qiu Lili. As she said that, both her and Lin Qiao turned to Mengmeng, who was hiding behind her.
“Roar!”
‘No! Don’t hurt me!’
Being gazed at by them, Mengmeng even had her fine hair standing straight up. She swiftly drew back and disappeared without leaving a trace.
Lin Qiao slightly narrowed her eyes, then saw a sphere of green energy fleetingly move out of the building. She then opened her eyes and said toward Mengmeng, “Alright, I’m going to bring Lili into the s.p.a.ce. I’ll leave you here if you keep hiding.”
Qiu Lili knew that Mengmeng was able to turn invisible, but didn’t think that Lin Qiao could see the invisible Mengmeng.
“Can you see her?” she asked.
“Yeah,” Lin Qiao nodded.
Mengmeng didn’t come back immediately, but squatted on the roof of another building while looking at Lin Qiao and Qiu Lili.
Lin Qiao was too lazy to tell her again to come back. She had only made a joke… How could Mengmeng run so far away because of that?
“Are Yuan Tianxing and the others in the base now?” she asked Qiu Lili.
“Yeah, I watched them in,” Qiu Lili nodded and said.
