Wu Chengyue had no idea that Lin Qiao had left, so he just kept waiting there. Meanwhile, Lin Qiao found a building and climbed onto the roof to observe the sky. She found that the moisture in the air had become heavier, and the dark clouds in the sky were getting denser and denser.
It was going to rain.
That would be her first rain after the apocalypse. From Lu Tianyu's memories, she learned that once the rain started, the temperature would drop drastically.
However, she was only afraid of the heat, and not the coldness.
As she prepared to leap off the building and continue looking for the Planning Bureau, she paused suddenly and looked around with confusion.
Then, she closed her eyes and sharpened her sensations as much as possible.
She caught a strange feeling. It wasn't like the feeling she had from Lu Tianyi, but was similar to the feeling that Xie Dong gave her earlier on.
To be honest, she was yet to figure out what exactly the weird connection between her and Xie Dong was. Lu Tianyi was Lu Tianyu's brother, so the two of them were probably connected by bloodline. However, Xie Dong and she weren't related at all.
She closed her eyes to carefully sense the strange feeling, then sensed a strong vibe which belonged to a zombie.
She opened her eyes and showed a bitter look as she couldn't help but complain in her head—'Damn! Why are there so many zombie kings and queens? Who said that zombie kings and queens are extremely rare? This is my second month in this post-apocalyptic world, yet I had already met two of them…And now, the third one has shown up!"
She automatically tried to turn away from that direction, but that strange feeling was also coming from that place, and she did care about that feeling.
It was Xie Dong the last time, so who was it this time? Whoever it was, that person was with a level-six zombie. The zombie's vibe was unfamiliar, meaning that she didn't know that zombie.
So, why was that person with a level-six zombie?
Lin Qiao understood that not every zombie king or queen was as nice and kind as Qiu Lili. Normally, level-six zombies would be like that thunder-powered one.
That person was with a level-six zombie, so, was he or she captured and kept as preserved food?
Lin Qiao stood on the roof and frowned, then sighed silently. If she didn't have that strange feeling, she wouldn't try finding that level-six zombie. But now, the feeling had occurred, and if she didn't figure it out, she would feel uneasy.
She thought for a moment, then leaped off the building and moved toward the zombie king.
She was invisible, so she could scarcely be harmed. Therefore, she decided to go and take a look. If it weren't too late, she would save that person, and if it were too late…she needed to at least figure out what exactly was going on, who exactly that person was, and what the strange connection between that person and herself was.
With these thoughts, Lin Qiao moved faster and faster.
The sky was covered by dark clouds. These were natural dark clouds, not the ones created by the zombie king. At the same time, the wind grew stronger and stronger, roaring thunderously.
Lin Qiao couldn't sense the dropping temperature, but Wu Chengyue could. He opened his eyes to look at the sky. Even though he was still protected by his energy, he didn't want to be soaked by the rain.
Since it was going to rain, he couldn't stay in the park.
He stood up from the branch and jumped off the tree, turning to walk toward the nearby buildings.
On the other side, Xiao Yunlong guarded by Meng Yue's side, anxiously pacing like a trapped bear.
He wanted to find Wu Yueling as soon as possible, but he didn't know where to go. If he took the wrong direction, he would go further away from her and the level-six zombie. Even if he found Ling Ling and the zombie right now, he wouldn't be able to take her back. However, he needed to know where she was at least.
Even if the zombie killed the little Ling Ling and ate her heart, he would need to bring her body back!
Wu Chengyue was too far away from then, so he couldn't inform him about what had happened.
What should he do? He really didn't know what to do!
Meng Yue was injured and unconscious. The longer she slept, the further away would Wu Yueling and the zombie get.
Xiao Yunlong's eyes turned red as he scratched his scalp again.
…
Lin Qiao raised her speed toward the level-six zombie. When she was only a few miles away from it, she suddenly paused on top of a signal tower.
She raised her nose to sniff at the air, then her face showed both surprise and hesitation.
That scent…That scent belonged to…
'The little one!'
Once she confirmed that the scent belonged to the little one who was parted from her for over twenty days, she couldn't help but get mad.
How could that man bring the kid to such a dangerous place!
Without hesitation, she sprung up from the signal tower and darted at the level-six zombie at an even higher speed.
'Please do not be too late!'
Miles away before her, in a tens of stories high building by a street, all the zombies had been evicted. A powerful level-six zombie was standing on the roof, so which ordinary zombie dared to linger there?
In a large suite on the top floor, the scaled young female zombie put Wu Yueling on the bed. The bed was large, with pillows and blankets on it. However, everything was covered in a thick layer of dust. It seemed that no one lived here before the apocalypse.
The young female zombie didn't clean the bed, but directly put Wu Yueling into the blanket. Then, she squatted by the bed, her head resting on her palms. She looked at the few wounds on Wu Yueling's little face, which had stopped bleeding.
While looking at Wu Yueling, the young female zombie had also been sniffing at her.
'She smells so good! So comfortable!'
Abruptly, she reached out a hand, crooked her finger, and touched the blood on Wu Yueling's wounds. Then, she took her hand back while gazing at the sticky blood.
It smelled really nice and sweet.
At that moment, the young female zombie cherishingly looked at Wu Yueling as if she were a sweet candy.
She wanted to eat the little thing, but she couldn't bear to.
Lin Qiao soon arrived, looked into the window of this large suite. She saw a young female zombie in clean high-school uniform squatting by the bedside, looking at Wu Yueling who was lying on the bed, seeming to be delighted.
Wu Yueling was unconscious, but her life-force stayed strong. It seemed that she hadn't suffered serious harm.
Then, Lin Qiao noticed the young female zombie's slightly wagging tail.
'Damn! What kind of zombie is this?'
When Lin Qiao was thinking with curiosity, the young female zombie suddenly turned to look at the window, as if she had sensed something.
It was at that moment Lin Qiao found that half of the young female zombie's face was covered in scales!
