Zombie Sister Strategy

“I guess this zombie emperor is really hard to deal with!” Before Gao Haoyun responded, Lan Lu joined the conversation with some insignificant words, then turned to Si Kongchen and asked, “Chief Si, what do you think?”

Si Kongchen wore no expression except a slight frown. As Lan Lu looked at him, he stayed silent for a few seconds then replied, “When the zombie emperor was out of control, his energy seemed to achieve a new level. Although we haven’t met other zombie emperors, I feel this one is going beyond the level of ordinary zombie emperors.”

He made it pretty clear that Wu Chengyue didn’t mean to be unhelpful. Instead, he was really not able to suppress the zombie emperor’s power!

“Are you saying that the zombie emperor can be even more dangerous than he already is when he goes crazy? So, should we try to kill him while he’s sane? Is there a way to stop him from going crazy suddenly? Miss Lu, what do you think about it?” Lan Lu talked about the zombie emperor like talking about a crazy dog. Meanwhile, he dragged Lin Qiao, who was sitting aside quietly like an ordinary pretty woman, into the conversation with as mile.

Lin Qiao gave him a cold glance. Couldn’t he just let her watch quietly? He had been looking at her in a meaningful way ever since he showed up, and now he asked for her opinion. Was he trying to make her expose her true identity?

After giving Lan Lu a cold glance, she looked at the others. At that point, the others had all landed their eyes on her.

Si Kongchen, Wu Chengyue and Gao Haoyun looked a little confused while the others were all looking at Lin Qiao expectantly.

After all, Lan Lu, Liu Zhinan, and Hong Yijie had all seen her leave the top of the fence wall. They believed that she went to watch the fight.

“Why ask me? I don’t know more about the zombie emperor than you guys do. What different opinions can I possibly have? I thought these three powerful men were able to deal with the zombie emperor. It turned out that I underestimated the zombie. Chairman Lan, maybe you should join the fight next time. Perhaps, your spirit power will be able to hurt the emperor. Why don’t you give it a shot?” Lin Qiao threw a question back to Lan Lu.

By saying that she had underestimated the zombie emperor, she was also trying to say that she had overestimated Si Kongchen and the other two. Everyone on the scene could tell that hidden meaning of her words, yet no one pointed it out.

As base leaders, they were smarter than that.

Lin Qiao was merely talking about the zombie emperor, but if they pointed out the other meaning of her words, whatever they said would sound like a criticism of Si Kongchen and the other two.

Hearing what Lin Qiao said, Si Kongchen and Gao Haoyun both blinked and turned to Lan Lu. They didn’t agree with what Lin Qiao said, but did think of her suggestion as a possible solution.

Lan Lu’s smile froze on his face. But soon, his expression turned natural again. “If my help is needed, I will surely lend a hand,” he responded with composure, “As for whether it’ll work or not, I can’t tell for sure. After all, the mental world of zombies doesn’t seem to be as complicated as that of humans.”

“How do you know if you don’t give it a try? Don’t you think that zombies might fall more easily than humans under your power, because of how simple-minded they are? Haven’t you ever tried your power on zombies? Or, do you only use your powers on humans?” Lin Qiao looked at him with cold eyes and said smilingly.

“Emm… I’m curious about it too. I think what Miss Lu said is very likely to happen. I have a newly awakened spirit power possessor under my command. I haven’t brought her out for missions yet. I wonder if her power can hurt zombies. Perhaps, I can ask her to try next time.” As Lin Qiao and Lan Lu had built up a not-so-friendly conversation, Wu Chengyue hurriedly joined in because he wasn’t happy to be left out.

Of course, what he said about that newly awakened spirit power possessor was a story that he made up. Moli was at level-six already. One thing he said about her was real though, that she rarely joined battles during missions, and mostly played a supportive role.

Moli was Liang Dashu the doctor’s assistant, more than an assistant actually. They had worked together for years. Liang Dashu had been teaching her everything about the virus study and medical knowledge.

Moli was a smart person, and after attaining spirit power, her brain became more active than normal people many times over. Therefore, she learned things very easily. Everything that Liang Dashu was able to do, she could do it too.

After Liang Dashu was gone, she took over all his work, including the medical work. While she carried out missions with Wu Chengyue, she normally served as an army surgeon.

Her superpower was effective on zombies. Wu Chengyue was on Lin Qiao’s side, so he didn’t tell the others about it. What he did was to try and embarrass Lan Lu even more based on Lin Qiao’s words.

“Look at you. You haven’t won her heart, but you are already protecting her openly. Is this really good? We are going to be so jealous of you!” Lan Lu clicked his tongue and then laughed helplessly. By making that joke, he was clearly trying to smooth things over.

By ‘we’, he meant himself and the other single men on the scene. The people on the scene were mostly smart and scheming, so it was not that easy for him to change the topic just like that.

However, among those people, one was sneaky but never cared about the overall situation.

Gao Haoyun looked at Lin Qiao with a trace of greediness in his eyes. He soon concealed that look in his eyes, and then turned to Wu Chengyue with even stronger discontentment.

He gave Wu Chengyue a cold glimpse, then abruptly said to Lin Qiao with a meaningful smile, “Yeah! Judging by Miss Lu’s attitude toward Chief Wu, I think I have a better chance. Or, maybe what Miss. Lu actually likes are those tall and strong men who can give her a sense of security. Am I right, Miss Lu?”

He was trying to say that Wu Chengyue was not as tall and strong as he was, so he might not be able to provide Lin Qiao with a sense of security. Also, he implied that Wu Chengyue might not be able to satisfy Lin Qiao in the bedroom.

Indeed, Wu Chengyue looked shorter and slimmer than Gao Haoyun.

He had no idea that Lin Qiao had seen Wu Chengyue’s muscular body. As for the bedroom stuff, she honestly did not want to try that again!

She still remembered what happened in her space when they were both entrapped by Viney. She seriously felt repulsion toward how actively Wu Chengyue did it back then.

At that very moment, Lin Qiao had only one word for Gao Haoyun— ‘Idiot’.

He actually picked up Lan Lu’s words and drew the topic to her! What on earth was he doing there? Not to mention the zombie emperor, why didn’t he think about how to deal with the virus inside his body? He was dying, yet still had the mood to flirt with her! Wasn’t he an idiot?
