Zombie Sister Strategy

In the isolated ward, Lin Hao was standing by the bedside with a few nurses, asking Qiao Liangting about how he felt. “How do you feel now? Are you feeling any discomfort?”

Qiao Liangting was lying on the bed. He was a slim man, pale, but looked energetic. His eyes were bright. He shook his head as he responded with a weak and dry voice, “No, thank you!”

Lin Hao gave him a check-up and found that he was in better condition than before when he had just arrived, full of energy. His face was ghastly pale, yet a vital force could be detected from it indeed.

Lin Hao heard that he was dying before his power woke up. At last, he made it to All Beings Base, and had his power waking up.

He was on death’s door, yet that misfortune brought him a good result.

After checking his body condition, Lin Qiao said to Qiao Liangting blandly, “Your body has been healing quickly. Now, you need to rest well. You might not sense your power clearly, as it has just been triggered. Over time, you’ll be able to feel the energy flowing inside you.”

Qiao Liangting smiled. His face was almost scrawny, but well-featured. Smiling made him look better than before.

Lin Hao nodded with a bland look, but didn’t say anything else.

…

At that moment, Lin Feng and his people had encountered trouble out there on their way to collect supplies.

Bang! Near a park, a gigantic fireball landed on the massive sphere of madly twitching vines, which had a metallic luster.

Lin Feng and his people always carried the grass balls that contained Lin Qiao’s blood when they left the base for missions. Therefore, zombies would avoid them from a distance. Only powerful mutated creatures would ignore the pressure from Lin Qiao’s blood and attack them.

Level-seven fire power could be considered very powerful. However, facing a level-seven mutated vine plant, Lin Feng’s chance of winning weren’t great.

Plants should be afraid of fire. However, Lin Feng’s fire wasn’t able to burn the plant which had the entire park covered by its vines, and was able to move quickly and attack people.

The vine had metal power! Of course, metal power could be conquered by fire power too. However, at the same level, humans were always weaker than mutated plants.

The plant swung its metal-strong vines, seeming ready to kill every single living being on its way.

Clang! Long Qingying gripped her blade with both hands and hacked on the arm-thick metal vine that was whipping at her.

“Eh…” The counterforce quaked her hands and nearly made her drop the blade. She clenched her teeth as her cheeks reddened slightly.

Her metal power was completely useless at that moment! The plant suppressed her power thoroughly, and had even been absorbing her energy.

She was the plant’s target. Her metal energy woke up the plant, which attacked her and her people when they passed by its territory.

Bullets were, of course, harmless for the level-seven metal-powered plant. Only superpower attacks could deliver some effects.

“What should we do? Deputy Chief and Captain Long aren’t gonna hold it for long!” Lin Yu, who was standing beside Lin Wenwen, anxiously watched the people who were fighting hundreds of meters away.

Lin Wenwen was anxious too. She had her eyes fixed on the battlefield through a telescope. She forced herself to calm down, as she was aware that she herself and the others were too weak to help. With no other choice, they stayed away from the front line.

She watched Long Qingying fall deeper and deeper into danger, while Lin Feng was too busy with fighting to save her. On the other side, Li Zheng’s ice power had failed to stop those crazily whipping vines too. Lin Wenwen couldn’t even catch her breath.

‘What should I do? What should I do? What’s the weakness of metal power? The combination of plants and metal power can be a huge piece of trouble! What’s the weakness of this giant metal vine plant?’

Lin Wenwen wished that she had learned botany before. If she knew what exactly that vine plant was, she might know about its weakness.

But now, thinking about that wouldn’t help. It was a mutated plant at level-seven!

Half of Lin Feng’s team died in the surprise attack from the vine plant. Lin Feng reacted fast enough to block some attacks, yet only managed to save one-third of his people.

Through her training, Lin Wenwen had become much nimbler than before. So, she luckily kept herself from being dragged away by those metal vines. With the help of Lin Yu and Li Zheng, she quickly retreated from the danger zone.

Now, in the safe area, she could do no more than watch Lin Feng and Long Qingying fighting over there.

“If they can’t hold it off until Chief comes to save us…” Feng Yuming looked at Lin Wenwen in panic as his face paled.

“This place is only about a hundred miles away from the base. My sister can definitely make it here on time! I hope Lili is in the base as well! What I’m now worried about is that my sister might not be in the base!” Lin Wenwen bit her finger while speaking, her face covered in sweat.

That was highly possible.

Hearing that, the others had their faces paled as well.

“If… If I can bring people into my space as my sister can, we’ll all be safe!” Lin Wenwen murmured to herself. She had an idea.

“Even if you can bring people into your space, you’re unable to get there. You still can’t save them,” Lin Yu reminded her.

Lin Wenwen paused briefly as she looked at Lin Yu with red eyes. Then, she turned back to the battlefield, her eyes unfocused. “What should we do… What should we do… Qingying! Brother!”

At that moment, she hated herself for being too weak!

Through the distance, she couldn’t see Lin Feng and Long Qingying clearly, but was able to see the enormous vine plant, which had a metallic luster.

Her mind started blurring. Her unfocused eyes landed on that frenzied plant that was madly wielding its countless vines; her mind pictured Lin Feng and Long Qingying fighting. She told herself that her sister would come to save them before it was too late, then wondered what she should do if her sister wasn’t in the base. Meanwhile, she wished that they never came to that area.

Countless thoughts flashed across her mind disorderedly, making her feel as if her head was exploding.

“No! Deputy Chief!” At that moment, Lin Yu burst in a scream.

Lin Wenwen automatically raised the telescope and looked through it. She saw a huge vine go through Lin Feng’s chest.

“No! Brother!” Lin Wenwen’s brain went blank and her heart missed a beat. All of a sudden, she felt dizzy, and the world before her eyes became blurry.
