Zombie Sister Strategy

Seeing the state that Xie Dong was in, Wu Yueling started feeling confused. She blankly watched him curl up and twitch on the ground, then raised her head to look at Lin Qiao in confusion. Her eyes were filled with a thirst for knowledge and understanding.

Lin Qiao first pointed at Xie Dong, then at herself. After that, she flicked her fingernails in the air and made a gesture exclusive to zombies.

Wu Yueling immediately understood Lin Qiao’s meaning. She stepped back a little and hid behind the latter, showing only half of her head and a pair of eyes.

‘Is that man turning into a zombie? Will he become a man-eating one as well?’ With this thought, Wu Yueling was suddenly afraid.

Lin Qiao was both amused and speechless as she looked at Wu Yueling’s rabbit eyes.

This child’s mind was so hard to understand! A moment ago, she had acted fearlessly by standing before Lin Qiao, but now, she hid behind her with fear.

“Ah!!Ah!!” At this moment, Xie Dong’s face began to twist. He couldn’t stop screaming hoarsely, and his voice sounded severely pained and miserable. By this time, no one could stop his transformation.

“Ah! K-kill… Kill… Kill… Me… Ah… Ah… Ah!” Somehow, he managed to recover some consciousness and shout a few words while screaming painfully. Those were no more than three words, yet he was unable to squeeze them out of his mouth coherently. However, he eventually finished saying them.

He didn’t know if this zombie in front of him could understand him, neither did he know if Wu Yueling had heard him. At this very moment, he just desired a quick death and for the pain to stop.

After he screamed out that short sentence, his expression became even more twisted. His body wasn’t curled up and twitching anymore, but suddenly popped straight. After that, his limbs twisted and he began struggling and rolling around on the ground. As he crazily tossed and turned on the ground, his body distorted weirdly into some impossible shapes.

Lin Qiao took a few steps backward and pushed Wu Yueling along with her. All the while, her eyes were fixed on this man who was turning into a zombie.

By this time, Xie Dong’s face was filled with protruding veins and his mouth was opened wide. His white teeth were exposed in the air, looking very scary. However, even at this moment, one last bit of emotion still remained in his eyes.

He was begging…

He looked at Lin Qiao beseechingly. By now, he had felt that this zombie wouldn’t harm people. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have saved him from that level-five zombie leader, and Wu Yueling wouldn’t be standing perfectly unharmed next to her.

The last thought he had right now was a wish for this zombie to kill him.

Lin Qiao looked at Xie Dong’s wide open eyes which were almost bulging out of his eye sockets. Those eyes had been rolling up bit by bit, and the pupils had been turning gray.

She suddenly popped out her sharp claws and darted out from before Wu Yueling. In a moment, she rushed up to Xie Dong who was already distorted into a weird shape, preparing to insert her claws into his skull.

But right at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Xie Dong’s eyes suddenly flashed and then turned entirely gray while he was writhing on the ground. In the next moment, he swiftly bounced and tilted his head, miraculously dodging Lin Qiao’s claws. Then, he propped up his body on all fours like a spider and crawled toward the lake at an incredible speed. He quickly arrived at the lake, thrust himself against the ground, and jumped to the lakeside.

Plop! He actually jumped into the lake!

Lin Qiao was dumbfounded, rooted to the spot with her claw continuing to stretch out. She was utterly shocked as she watched the zombie Xie Dong dodge her attack within a blink of an eye and jump into the lake.

Once she realized what had happened, she rushed to the lakeside and stared at the widening circles of ripples on the water surface. However, zombie Xie Dong had disappeared without a trace.

To be honest, Lin Qiao hadn’t gone down to the middle of the lake. She had been bathing and washing things by the lakeside all this time, but hadn’t had the time to go down and take a look. She didn’t know how deep the water was or what was in there.

But just now, this newborn zombie had made that journey even before her.

Furthermore, this zombie Xie Dong was weird, obviously not an ordinary zombie. Judging by the looks of it, it had directly entered level-one or two, which was the only explanation for his swift reactions and movements.

Lin Qiao stood by the lake, her brows knitted.

The situation was troublesome now. She had let a low-level zombie hide in her space. Things would have been fine if no one was in her space, but there was a child to think of! However, Lin Qiao now dared not to go down the lake to find the zombie, as she was afraid that it would crawl back up from the other side once she went down. If that happened, they would be in for some serious trouble.

Lin Qiao felt that this space was not yet fully under her control. If only she could sense the situation deep down in the lake… As of now, she could only sense the space above the lake surface, but nothing below the water.

For now, all she could do was stay in the space and wait for zombie Xie Dong to come out of the water. She couldn’t send Wu Yueling out of the space, as the outside world wasn’t any safer while there were zombies all over the place.

She went back to Wu Yueling’s side and pointed at the area where the furniture was placed, signaling for her to go and stay there.

Wu Yueling was also staring at the water curiously, wondering what had happened underwater to the man who had turned into a zombie. Would he drown? Was he able to swim in the water like a fish?

Seeing Lin Qiao’s hand signal, she understood that she couldn’t linger here. She didn’t dare to stay here anyway.

Therefore, when Lin Qiao raised a hand and pointed at the area with the bed and couch, she immediately turned around and walked toward it. While walking, she turned back to confirm whether Lin Qiao was following her.

Obviously, Lin Qiao followed behind Wu Yueling. As she walked, she turned around to glance at the lake surface which was gradually becoming calm.

She thought that the zombie Xie Dong would stay underwater for a long time. However, after she had walked only a few steps behind Wu Yueling, her ears moved suddenly and she stopped, turning her head and staring at the surface of the lake without blinking

As she had suspected, the gradually calming water surface now rippled slightly again, as though something was coming out of it. In fact, something did come out of the water, and it was the zombie Xie Dong who had leaped into the lake not too long ago.

After a series of ripples, a figure quietly surfaced, floating motionlessly on the water.

Lin Qiao was shocked.

‘What happened?’

Wu Yueling sensed that Lin Qiao had stopped walking behind her, so she stopped as well. Her senses were rather keen, so once the latter had stopped following her, she had felt it almost immediately.

She turned around as well and looked at Lin Qiao. Seeing her staring straight at the lake surface, Wu Yueling walked over curiously and stood behind her legs, sticking her head out to look as well. She then saw the motionless figure which was floating on the water.

Lin Qiao frowned, not knowing what was going on. Why had Xie Dong become like this after he turned into a zombie and jumped into the water? She remembered that when she went down into the water for the first time, it seemed that she had slept for a long time before she woke up.

She didn’t know if Xie Dong was going through the same situation as she had.

Lin Qiao spent a moment thinking about this. Since Xie Dong had floated up to the surface, she surely needed to go over and take a look. He was unable to move, and therefore, posed no threat. In that case, she could directly touch him and send him out of the space.
