Chapter 1387 - Lu Tianyi at Level-six

Si Kongchen wasn’t making a move yet, so Lin Qiao decided to use the time to upgrade Lu Tianyi. With that thought, she used her will power and placed a few zombie nuclei with water power into her own hands – one level-six nucleus and five level-five ones. Next, she flashed straight to Lu Tianyi’s side. In her space, she was able to teleport herself to any corner by using her will power after all.

As Lin Qiao suddenly showed up by his side, Lu Tianyi put down the hoe and stood straight, resting both hands on the pole as he turned to look at her. “How can I help you?”

Lin Qiao showed him the nuclei, saying, “Let them do the work. You come with me. Let’s get you into a higher level.”

“Now?” Lu Tianyi looked at her with surprise.

Wasn’t the war with Huaxia Base about to start? Did she still have the time to help him with the upgrade?

“Yeah,” Lin Qiao nodded, “Si Kongchen isn’t taking action now. I’ll upgrade you today and check Huaxia’s most recent moves tomorrow before deciding if I want to upgrade all who carried the last mission with me before the war started. Come on!”

She finished talking and waved at Lu Tianyi before heading toward the lake. Lu Tianyi walked out of the field with the hoe carried on his shoulder. He first put it down and then walked toward Lin Qiao slowly, because he couldn’t approach the lake until she suppressed its power.

Lin Qiao walked to the lakeside, took off her clothes, and threw them to the side. Meanwhile, she wrapped herself up with a black mist and got into the water, soon gathering all the energy in the water to the bottom of the lake.

As the pressure coming from the lake disappeared, Lu Tianyi walked to the lakeside and glanced at Lin Qiao’s clothes before at his own. With a frown, he struggled to strip himself. Before taking off the last piece, which was his underwear, he paused briefly and looked back. In the distance, some zombies simultaneously turned their heads away, continuing their work as if nothing was happening.

Lu Tianyi sighed.

Pesticide covered Xiao-xiao’s eyes with a hand, but he himself was staring straight at Lu Tianyi’s crotch area, seemingly to measure the other’s size with his eyes. Lu Tianyi turned and took a deep breath, spending a moment thinking if he should get into the lake with his underwear on or take it off. The lake would eat his underwear, so if even he went down wearing it, he would still come out naked and need to find new underwear. Hence. he decided to take it off. Those zombies wanted to watch him, and he decided to let them. He believed that he was of a bigger size than Pesticide!

With that thought, he took off the underwear and then jumped into the lake. As soon as he fell into the water, he felt that something wrapped himself and quickly dragged him down.

‘What took you so long? Were you showing off your body up there?’ He heard a voice from his mind. Lu Tianyi rolled his eyes and said in his head, ‘No. They peeked at me. Not my fault.’

Lin Qiao dragged him down and had his back to herself. After that, she put the zombie nuclei around his body for him to absorb.

It wasn’t the first time Lu Tianyi upgraded with Lin Qiao’s help. Seeing those nuclei, he picked one with each hand and started absorbing them. Meanwhile, she pressed a hand on his back to help him filter the energy in the nuclei.

It didn’t take long for Lu Tianyi to break into a new level. He had water power, which was relatively gentle. The energy of the lake entered his body under Lin Qiao’s control and filtered the energy from the nuclei. Not long after that, his nucleus was saturated, and in the end, she helped him make the breakthrough using the level-six nucleus.

In a couple of hours, Lu Tianyi and Lin Qiao came out of the water.

Lin Qiao put on her clothes in the mist. Lu Tianyi didn’t have anything to cover his body, so he silently glanced at the zombies in the field. The zombies quickly turned their heads away and kept doing their job.

After getting dressed, Lin Qiao looked at the still lake surface while sighing, “I wonder if I’ll be able to upgrade you guys on the land when I break into level-nine. If only I could extract the energy from the lake…”

Lu Tianyi, who was putting on his pants with his upper body bared, glanced at her and said, “This isn’t bad. You get to see a lot of bodies.”

“I’m sorry, I’m not interested in the art of nudity,” Lin Qiao gave him a glare and said. Not everyone’s nude body was pleasant to the eyes!

Somehow, she thought of Old Guo.

‘Eh? Something weird got into my mind!’

Lin Qiao hurriedly waved her hand to help herself to cast Old Guo’s wrinkled body, which she had seen when the old man was taking a bath, out of her mind.

Lu Tianyi put on all his clothes and turned to glance at the lake. He had water power, but he couldn’t control the water from the lake. He couldn’t even sense the energy of the lake. The lake was probably generated by some special kind of power.

Once Lin Qiao came out of the lake, the heavy pressure spread from it once again . Lu Tianyi stayed by the lakeside for only a few minutes and then started feeling uncomfortable. So, he quickly walked away from the lake toward Lin Qiao’s house.

The next morning, Lin Qiao left early to have a meeting with the others.

“According to the news from Sea City Base last night, Si Kongchen prepares to send his men to those underground creatures in a few days. Should we stop them?” Holding the report from Sea City Base, Lin Feng looked at Lin Qiao, who was sitting at the head of the table, and asked.

Lin Qiao leaned on the back of her chair as she folded her arms and glanced at him without answering the question. Then, she turned to Xie Dong, who was sitting on her left side, “Have you found out the paths that Huaxia plans to take to the south and the east?”

“Yes,” Xie Dong nodded.

That was easy. Si Kongchen intended to draw those underground creatures to human bases, so he would certainly do something in their gathering spots. The gathering spots between the east and south China had all been located already.

Lin Qiao blinked her eyes and turned to Lin Feng, “Let’s send our people there for an ambush. We’ll give Si Kongchen a surprise and see if he’ll like that.”

“Are we going to send a squad from Base Number Two?” Lin Feng asked.

Lin Qiao shook her head and said, “No. The force from Base Number One will perform the task. It’s about the time for your soldiers to be sent out for some actual practice. My soldiers have carried out almost every mission. I guess your men are even getting rusty, aren’t they?”

Lin Feng wasn’t expecting Lin Qiao to decide to send out human soldiers this time, so he looked at her with surprise.

“What? Is there a problem?” Lin Qiao raised her brows and said to him.

“Of course not!” Lin Feng quickly shook his head. After saying that, he turned and made eye-contact with Yuan Tianxing.
