“Have you controlled all the new zombies yet?” Sitting behind the conference table, Lin Qiao looked at Qiu Lili and asked.


“Yeah. What should we do with them next?” Qiu Lili nodded and asked.


Lin Qiao spent a short while thinking. The base was in a mess currently, so she decided to put those new zombies outside for the time being. When she had time, she would bring them back into the base and change their virus. Some of them might wake up and restore their memories.


“Put them outside Base Number Two. We’ll deal with them when we have time,” she said.


“I see,” Qiu Lili nodded.


“About those superpowered people, you take the old man and Eight to summon all metal-powered zombies, and divide them into two groups. Send one group to the ones who have already lost their minds, and the other group to the ones who are still sane,” Lin Qiao turned to Yun Meng and continued.


“Yes.”


Except for Xie Dong’s squad, all the zombies from level three to five under Lin Qiao’s command were now led by Qiu Lili and Yun Meng.


Among all kings and queens, Old Guo, zombie number eight whose head was always wrapped in gauze, and Mo—who used to be under Mo Yan’s command—all had metal power. Currently, Mo and Ye Qingxian were with Lin Kui, looking for Lin Kui’s sister. So, at the moment, Old Guo and zombie number eight were the only two metal-powered zombie kings in the base.


“Send the old man to Lin Feng, and Eight to the unconscious ones,” Lin Qiao thought for a moment and then added.


“Yujen, Junjun, Lu Tianyi, you take some level-three zombies to help Li Jian and his people.”


“Yes ma’am!”


“Yes ma’am!”


“Yes.”


The three of them nodded and responded together.


Xie Dong was still responsible for gathering information. Lin Qiao had also sent Five, Six, and a group of level-four zombies to the lab to watch Lin Hao and Leng Xuantong.


About an hour later, Xie Dong finally returned with the news from Sea City Base.


“They’re going through the same situation as us. Sea City Base is in major chaos now. Wu Chengyue and Zou s.h.i.+hui are scorched by now,” Xie Dong reported to Lin Qiao in her office.


He didn’t need to explain why those two were scorched at the moment.


Sea City Base had a large population, meaning that a big number of new zombies had emerged in their base, and a lot had died. The new zombies woke up early in the morning when most of the people were still in sleep. The result could be imagined easily. Without a doubt, a considerable number of people had been bitten by those new zombies and turned into zombies themselves.


All Beings Base was lucky to have a group of high-leveled zombies to bring the new zombies under control within a short span of time. Sea City Base didn’t have that kind of luck.


“It’ll take us one or two days to hear from the other bases,” said Xie Dong.


Based on the current situation of Sea City Base, Lin Qiao figured that the other bases were going through the same. She still needed specific information though.


“Also, we’ve noticed that many mutated creatures have gone crazy out there as well. It seems to be even worse than what happened to the superpowered people in human bases. A lot of mutated animals are running rampant, and those mutated plants on the outside are growing… crazily!” Xie Dong told Lin Qiao about what he saw outside the base, “It does look like a second apocalypse.”


“I guess the human population has reduced further… by forty percent at least,” Lin Qiao gave a heavy sigh. Looking at Mrs. Lin who was sitting dully on a couch in the house in her s.p.a.ce, she suddenly felt tired.


“Hasn’t Lin Hao made a progress yet?” She got rid of the negative emotion and asked.


“Not yet,” Xie Dong shook his head and said.


At that time, Yun Meng came in with a notebook. She sat on the chair before Lin Qiao’s desk, sighed and said, “Eighteen superpowered people went crazy within the past two hours. What the h.e.l.l is going on?”


Gathering all superpowered people together was the right decision to make. Not long after that, some of them lost control one after another. But, people had all prepared themselves for that. Once someone showed a sign of losing control, they would rush up and knock him or her out. Therefore, no big damage was caused.


The problem was… what caused all these changes? Would those superpowered people stay maniacal like that?


“Here, here! Doctor Lin and Mr. Leng have news,” Shen Yujen rushed in and said to Lin Qiao excitedly.


Lin Qiao and Yun Meng stood up together and headed outside.


“Let’s go!”


“What have you found?” Lin Qiao asked impatiently once she arrived at the research department.


Lin Hao was staring at the screen of a device, too busy to answer her question. So, Leng Xuantong turned back and said, “The new zombies, the people who died this morning, and those maniacal superpowered people… their bodies all contain one type of material. We haven’t found the source of that material yet. We didn’t find that material in the blood of those surviving commoners, so I think they’re safe.”


At that moment, Lin Hao stood up and said, “We refined that material. So far, we can only see that it’s some kind of gas.”


“Gas?” Lin Qiao murmured with confusion.


“I wonder if you have noticed the difference between the lower floors and the top floors of the dorm buildings,” Leng Xuantong said while handing what was in his hand to the female zombie beside him. The female zombie smoothly took over the test tube and put it on a shelf nearby.


She was, of course, Leng Xuantong’s wife. Behind her legs was a zombie kid, who was hiding behind his mother under Lin Qiao’s strong vibe.


“The death rate was higher among the people who lived in the bottom floors, and so was the zombie-turning rate,” Xie Dong abruptly joined the conversation.


“So, are you saying that the gas came from underground?” That idea popped up in Lin Qiao’s mind and she let it out without thinking.


“That is only a guess so far. We can’t prove it yet. Judging by what’s happening to the mutated plants out there, I think that guess is right. According to the saying about how the apocalypse was caused six years ago, I think our theory is highly possible to be true,” said Leng Xuantong.


How come people died this time? Their bodies were dried out. Did that mysterious material evaporate the moisture in human bodies?


That was terrifying! If that happened a few more times, how were human beings supposed to survive? They would die out, wouldn’t they?


“We had ourselves checked. Our blood doesn’t contain that material. I think it’s like a stronger version of the zombie virus!” said Lin Hao.
