“Eh? Will you?” Lin Qiao asked with surprise.
“What’s wrong? Is there any unsolved problem?” Mrs. Lin asked Lin Qiao as the latter suddenly turned a little absent-minded. Hearing her words, all the others in the room turned to the latter.
Except for Mrs. Lin and Liu Jun, the others, including Lin Xiaolu, Tongtong, Lin Wenwen, Long Qingying, and Cheng Wangxue, were all having sweet potatoes. The room was suffused with the sweet aroma of sweet potatoes.
“Ah… oh, yeah, there’s one thing that I need to deal with. It’ll be done in a couple of days,” Lin Qiao didn’t tell them about Viney, neither did she let them know that the zombie emperor hadn’t left. She just gave them a vague response.
Viney also said that she would sleep for a very long time before she was given birth.
Thinking about that, Lin Qiao somehow wondered if she would give birth to a baby like Nezha, a mythological figure in Chinese culture. Nezha’s mother was pregnant with him for three years.
She stood up and said to the others in the room, “I’m going back to my room.”
“Alright, go,” Mrs. Lin didn’t ask her to stay and just nodded. Her eyes lingered briefly on Lin Qiao’s stomach, but she didn’t say anything about it.
She and the others had asked Lin Qiao about the baby earlier. She was pregnant for months, yet her stomach was still flat. All the others were curious about the baby. They told her to find Lin Hao and get a check-up when she had time.
Recently, Lin Hao was working together with Leng Xuantong in the lab. On the one hand, they need to figure out what components the drug from Huaxia Base contained, and on the other hand, they needed to culture the virus from Lin Qiao’s blood for massive usage. Apart from those, they had still been doing tests with the blood of Lin Qiao and Lin Kui, trying to find out if their blood could deliver any other effects. With all these works, Lin Hao was so busy lately that he had forgotten about Viney long ago.
Lin Qiao was a little stunned.
Lin Qiao walked to the lakeside and released a stream of black mist to wrap herself up. After that, she took off her clothes and folded them, putting them on the ground. Then, she walked into the lake and dived to the bottom.
In the lake, she gathered the energy around her body and then put the energy nucleus on her stomach. Sensing the energy from the lake and the energy from the nucleus flowing into her flat belly, she crossed her legs and sat at the bottom of the lake.
In the next two days, Mo Yan didn’t sense Lin Qiao’s vibe, but stayed vigilant the whole time. However, to his surprise, while he had his eyes on All Beings Base, the second batch of scouts from the other bases arrived.
This time, Hidden Cloud City had sent a large troop. A three-hundred-man troop leading by fifteen level-five superpowered people and two Deputy Chiefs showed up by the border between West Lake District and Upper City District.
“These Hades Base survivors have really built a new base in this zombie city. I am so curious about that base.” On top of a building, Qi Hanhui stood beside Weiming, looking at All Beings Base.
Weiming had a sullen face, and didn’t respond to him.
It had been about a month, yet they still hadn’t found a trace of Lu Zhuofeng. They refused to believe that a level-eight man would die so easily.
Where had he been?
While searching around for Lu Zhuofeng, Weiming and Qi Hanhui scouted for the condition of the new base in Hangzhou. Unexpectedly, the squad that they sent out two days ago had disappeared. They figured that the squad might have encountered a problem.
“Tonight, I’ll lead a squad to see what’s going on in there,” Weiming looked at All Beings Base and said.
“Okay. Among those Hades Base people, Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng are the only two at level-six. There won’t be any big problems, but do be careful,” Qi Hanhui nodded.
Once it turned dark, Weiming and a ten-man squad sneaked toward Upper City District.
By the time Lin Qiao sensed that some people were approaching her base, Mo Yan had gotten close to those people and stopped them from moving forward.
Following a series of rumbling thunder, lightning bolts suddenly flashed across the clouds, illuminating the entire sky. At that time, Weiming and his people were driving two off-road cars in the darkness.
Weiming stuck his head out from the window on the side of the front seat, wondering would thunderstorms happen in winter.
While he was still confused, a new wave of thunder was heard, and then a few purple bolts of lightning descended from the sky, falling toward the two cars.
