Zombie Sister Strategy

Twenty level-seven mutated beasts together… How destructive and dangerous could they be? No wonder Lin Feng had been wearing a serious look since he came back.

Yuan Tianxing thought for a moment and then asked, “Did they get into the underground cave?”

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Yes. It was quiet down there during the daytime. There are a lot of tunnels underground, interweaving with each other. The place was large, and each tunnel seemed to be endless. For their safety, we didn’t let Three and Four get too deep into the cave. One night after those creatures had left, I sent Three and the other zombies down there again, but they were attacked. Only a small part of those creatures went out while the rest stayed underground.”

“Have you found any other entrance to the cave?” Yuan Tianxing asked with a frown.

Lin Feng shook his head and said, “I’ve checked the area ten miles in radius around that place, but didn’t find any other entrance. I can’t guarantee there won’t be one in the future though.”

“If there isn’t a second entrance, their territory might not be extending,” said Yuan Tianxing, “But, we can’t say for sure, as we don’t know what exactly is going on underground. We should mark that area as a dangerous zone and forbid people from approaching. Also, we should inform all hunters to avoid that area.”

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Okay. I’ll write a report for Chief.”

Hearing him mention Lin Qiao, Yuan Tianxing paused briefly, then said uncertainly, “Is Chief… really fine?”

Lately, he had been feeling that Lin Qiao’s vibe was a little strange, a lot gentler than before. Her vibe was as strong as ever, but somehow, he felt that she was not as dangerous as she used to be.

Not long ago, she disappeared suddenly, then showed up in Sea City Base. Yuan Tianxing couldn’t help but feel that something important had happened and caused that. He couldn’t stop himself from trying to figure out what it was. Last time, Wu Chengyue lost control of himself but soon woke back up. That was not normal either.

Lin Feng thought for a second and responded, “As far as I know, she’s indeed facing a problem. It’s no big deal though, I think. That’s why she didn’t tell us what’s going on. Don’t worry! Wu Chengyue is with her, isn’t he?”

Lin Feng was a little worried about Lin Qiao too actually, because he had heard from Lin Hao that her problem was caused by her baby. He also understood that her case was special, and that it was probably normal for that problem to occur. Many healthy women had different pregnancy reactions after all.

Lin Hao was a little anxious about Lin Qiao’s condition because it was completely out of his control. However, he was also pretty sure that she would be fine. Lin Feng believed in his brother, so he wasn’t too worried about Lin Qiao’s health.

Yuan Tianxing looked at Lin Feng and slightly moved his lips, but didn’t say anything at last.

Even her brothers weren’t concerned about her, so he, who was not a family member, shouldn’t act super worried. He had decided to let her go, but it was really hard to actually do that.

After all, he was able to control his behavior, but not his feelings.

While Lin Feng and Yuan Tianxing were talking about those underground creatures, those hairless, eyeless creatures, which had long and strong arms, had been digging on the other side of the cave with their sharp claws. They were able to easily shatter the earth and hard stones.

They had strong muscles, strangely long arms, and short legs. The ones who were responsible for the digging were at level-five, enormous in size. Behind them, the smaller, lower-leveled ones were shipping the earth and stone pieces away.

Soon, the ground in a small park that was located about ten miles Northwest of the entrance that Lin Feng had been to suddenly sank into a seven or eight meters wide hole.

It was dark inside the hole, and nothing could be seen. The daylight poured into the hole, but could not reach its end.

At dusk, when it was growing darker and darker, noises could be heard from the hole. A claw that had a cold luster reached out and clasped on the ground beside the hole, sinking into the earth. Next, a figure flashed out of the hole.

Soon, the second and third figures showed up. They crawled out of the hole and sniffed around, then swiftly moved in one direction. More creatures soon swooshed out of the hole and followed behind them.

Before long, a series of strange noise was heard from the park, followed by a wave of bloody scent. No screams were heard.

Soon, one of those creatures returned to the hole, a prey covered in blood held in one of its forepaws. A couple of minutes later, another creature dragged a dead animal back to the hole and quickly crawled in.

After that night, the countless mutated dogs, cats, and birds in that park were all gone, without leaving a trace. All that was left was a faint bloody sent that lingered in the air. Only after the sun rose and a gust of wind blew across the park did the scent fade away slowly.

Lin Qiao woke up in the morning and dumped a handful of zombie nucleus ash in the trash bin, then walked into the bathroom to wash her face and hands. It was her third day being invisible. She felt much better than before, much less stressed. She couldn’t tell why though.

Since her power was disabled, she felt as if her body was restrained and suppressed. She absorbed a few zombie nuclei or plant nuclei every night, but never felt as relaxed as she was now.

She washed her face, then dried her hands with a towel and put them on her belly, saying morning to Viney. After that, she got changed and walked out of her room.

On the other side, Wu Chengyue woke up, wanting to stay a little longer in the bed. However, he only hesitated for a few seconds before he got up from the bed. After refreshing himself up, he started taking care of his daughter.

Soon, he went downstairs and saw a cup of water on the tea table. An invisible hand picked up the cup and tilted it slightly. Some of the water flowed into an invisible mouth, then the cup was put back onto the tea table.

Wu Chengyue had already gotten used to that. At that moment, Wu Yueling happily ran to Lin Qiao. Wu Chengyue cast a gentle glance at the couch area with a faint smile, then turned and walked into the kitchen.
