Then, she went to the field near Mount Wu. She planned to develop the entire area into a farmland. These days, Liu Jun, Shen Yujen, and three zombies with earth and water power were assigned there, turning the soil.
The sweet potato field had changed thoroughly. Those healthy sweet potato plants which were growing weakly around sweetcorn plants were thriving now, and had covered a big part of the land.
What were also healthy and thriving were those pumpkin and potato plants from Lin Qiao’s space.
The plants that Lin Qiao asked Lu Tianyi to grow hadn’t grown the first batch of seeds, so Lin Qiao and her zombie army continued developing new lands.
Maybe because of the lake water from her space, the soil in the sweet potato field was purified and enrichened.
Around eighty zombies at level three or four were working on the farmland. They had all been improved by Lin Qiao’s virus. Whatever Lin Qiao and Liu Jun taught them, they were able to understand quickly.
Specifically, they had become smarter.
The zombie old man was slightly different from them… Of course, he had become smarter too, but his character turned even stranger.
“Oi, old man, since you remember everything now, why don’t you try and find your family?” Lin Qiao sat in the cabin leisurely as she looked at the old man who was standing by her side.
The old man gave her a sideways glance but stayed silent. From that glance, Lin Qiao detected loneliness and coldness.
Lin Qiao looked at him with confusion. ‘Doesn’t he have a family? He doesn’t look like a childless old man. Did his family die at the apocalypse? ‘ she wondered.
…
Mo Yan, who was forced away by Lin Qiao, didn’t go far. After running into Lei Cheng and his people, and venting his anger at them, he had calmed down and started thinking of a way to destroy All Beings Base.
At first, he needed to figure out that weird female zombie’s background! So, he started to dig into Lin Qiao’s background and seek all the details about her by all means.
He spent half a month to observe her secretly and collect information through different means. However, the information he attained was little.
So far, he only knew that the people from All Being Bass called that female zombie Miss. Lu. The two little girls were under her command, and so was the male level-seven zombie that he had seen once, along with about ten zombie leaders and tens of level-four zombies. Apart from them, she also had about fifty level-three zombies.
He was speechless when he saw Lin Qiao send those zombies to build the fence wall and work in the farmland. But soon, he forgot about those weird things, because he found that those zombies at level three and four all seemed to be strangely smart. Some of them were even as smart as those zombie dominators under his command!
As far as he knew, the intelligence of zombies grew along with their grades. Level-three zombies could be as smart as six-year-old human children, and level-four zombies could be as smart as an eight-year-old child. At the level of zombie kings and queens, zombies could be as intelligent as teenagers.
Through half a month of observation, Mo Yan found that those zombies who were working in Mount Wu farmland, and those who were pretending to be humans, helping in the construction site, were all as smart as fourteen-year-old human kids.
Apart from the female zombie and the two girls, another female zombie who was at level-five was able to talk as well!
Some among those zombies were actually able to talk! That was not normal!
Mo Yan also found that almost all higher-leveled zombies in All Being Base were like human beings! The two girls didn’t seem to be very afraid when they saw him. On the contrary, they could tell that he had human memory, meaning that they remembered their human lives as well. He could accept that fact though, as he himself had human memory as well.
At first, he thought every zombie had memory, but didn’t realize that he was a special one.
Why did those zombies all have their memories? The two who looked like high school students, and the bossy female zombie all had memories. The group of zombie leaders under her command, including one male, two female, and an old man, didn’t look like zombies either. They looked like human beings. Mo Yan guessed that they remembered the things before their deaths as well.
They had memories, and were able to talk. Apart from that, they were getting along peacefully with the people in that small base. Mo Yan had also noticed the eyes of that female zombie and the other three zombies.
Same as the other zombies, Mo Yan the zombie emperor couldn’t see colors either. But still, he was able to tell the difference between the purely black zombie eyes and the eyes of human beings, which had dark parts and white parts.
Why did the eyes of those zombies look like the eyes of healthy human beings? The eyes of zombies were supposed to be entirely black!
All those strange things puzzled Mo Yan.
He was patient, though, getting more and more interested in the zombies from that base. And of course, he didn’t forget his subordinates who were taken away by that evil female zombie!
Where on earth did she hide them? Why couldn’t he find them?
Mo Yan was planning on rescuing them. However, after half a month of searching, he failed even to find a trace of those level-six zombies!
However, there was one thing that he was happy about. The people in that small base seemed not to know that a group of zombies was living on the top floor of that hotel building. The rule of the new base forbade all human beings from entering the fifth floor, except for the base administrators.
They were clearly hiding something. Knowing what they really were, Mo Yan easily figured out what they were hiding.
He sneered. On his pretty face, his dark eyes sparkled with a purple light. The blood veins on his left face twitched in a creepy way as if they were alive.
He wondered how those commoners would react when they found out that their leader was a zombie.
Humans and zombies could never live together!
During the half a month when Mo Yan was sneakily observing All Beings Base, Lin Qiao upgraded Liu Jun, Xie Dong, Lu Tianyi Shen Yujen, zombie number one to seven, and some other zombies.
As Mo Yan tried to collect more useful information, he suddenly found that those zombies had all broken into higher levels!
Liu Jun and Lu Tianyi were at level-four. But this time, Lin Qiao forcibly sent them into level-five. Meanwhile, Xie Dong went directly into level-six and became a fire-powered zombie king. Among zombie number three to seven, only four upgraded successfully. The last one failed, because Lin Qiao ran out of nuclei!
She had collected a large number of zombie nuclei before. Qiu Lili, Yun Meng, and the other zombies had each collected some themselves as well. However, a huge consumption was required for upgrading so many zombies at one time, especially when a few among them were going into the level of kings and queens.
Thankfully, Lin Qiao filtered the energies from all the nuclei with the energy from the lake. That allowed those zombies to absorb the energies as much as possible when making the breakthrough. Also for that reason, their energy wouldn’t become too agitated after they reached the new levels.
Yet, their energies could still be unstable more or less. Therefore, after the upgrade, Lin Qiao immediately sent them to develop new farmlands. By using their powers, they could channel and stabilize the energies inside them.
