790 It Can'st Affect Her

Lan Lu seemed to be very interested in Lin Qiao, and always tried to talk to her.

"Why did you come here? I thought you're busy. After all, your base was newly founded about half a year ago," Lan Lu stood by Lin Qiao's side and asked her smilingly.

"Why would I be busy? I've done what I needed to do. The others will handle the rest," Lin Qiao glanced at him and said blandly, without answering his question.

On the other side of the wall, Liu Zhinan said to Hong Yijie, "I think someone is just here to flirt."

His voice wasn't high, but it wasn't low either. Having finished talking, he gave Lin Qiao a meaningful glance.

Most people there were at level six or seven, and every single one of them had keen sensations. Their hearing was better than commoners by ten times at least.

Lin Qiao had the best hearing among all on the scene. She had surely grasped every word Liu Zhinan said, and detected the teasing tone.

Hong Yijie looked at Liu Zhinan's sour face, then at Lin Qiao. He understood that Liu Zhinan was holding a grudge toward Lin Qiao because she poisoned Hu Zhiyong earlier on. Now, Hu Zhiyong had died a mysterious death, which made Liu Zhinan spiteful toward Lin Qiao.

He looked at Lin Qiao, who stayed calm and pretended not to hear anything, and said, "Don't say that. They're here to help."

While speaking, Hong Yijie swung an arm downward. The metal pieces around him rose into the sky within a blink, then quickly turned into thorns, flying at the zombie crowd down the wall like a rain of metal.

"Roarrrr!"

Puff! Puff! Puff! Those finger-sized metal thorns sank into the bodies of some zombies and froze them, making them fall to the ground.

"Her power is poison," said Liu Zhinan scornfully, "How's that gonna hurt zombies? Are zombies afraid of poison? I doubt that."

Wei Haichao threw out a handful of seeds once again and turned them into small vine plants with his power. Then, those vines started growing thrivingly.

"Liu Zhinan, just crack the earth to stop these zombies. Look at those in the back. They're almost crazy! Taking them wave by wave can really be annoying," Wei Haichao shouted at Liu Zhinan impatiently.

Liu Zhinan glanced at those zombies who were surging toward the base like waves of tidewater and frowned slightly. At last, he didn't say anything but raised both hands toward those zombies.

Soon, a wave of vibration was sensed from the earth. Next, a long crack was seen about a hundred meters away from the base, growing wider and wider. The zombies near it all fell in, and so did the ones that rushed over from the behind.

Liu Zhinan's move immediately broke the zombie crowd into two. With that, the superpowered fighters and soldiers on the wall all sighed with relief.

The earth power could be terrifying at a high level. At level-eight, an earth-powered man might be able to create a small-range earthquake. The crack that Liu Zhinan had created extended for quite the distance, and was perfect to stop the zombie crowd.

Lin Qiao pretended not to hear the conversation between Liu Zhinan and Hong Yijie. She turned where Wu Chengyue and the other two were headed to and narrowed her eyes. After a short while thinking, she leaped off the wall.

Duan Juan and Shen Yujen, who were standing behind her the whole time, followed her to the edge of the earth crack, then leaped across it.

After flying across the meters wide earth crack, the three of them stepped accurately on the heads of some zombies, moving toward the buildings behind the clearing around the base.

Lin Qiao had been restraining her vibe, so that was barely affecting the surrounding zombies. Shen Yujen was a zombie too, so she was neglected by the other zombies.

Duan Juan and her people all carried the objects that contained Lin Qiao's blood, so the surrounding zombies didn't attack them either.

Lin Qiao soon brought her squad out of the clearing, onto a roof nearby. Without pausing, they headed further away from the base.

"Where is she going? Does she regret coming here? Is she retreating?" Wei Haichao looked at the backs of Lin Qiao and her people with confusion.

"Chief had headed there too. Perhaps she's going to help them," Hong Yijie looked that way and said.

"Help? How can a woman possibly help them? I guess she's going to hinder them! If she's really heading to the battlefield, she must be having some other purposes," Liu Zhinan snorted scornfully, then took a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and lighted one up.

"Aren't you going with her?" Lei Cheng looked at Lan Lu and asked.

Lan Lu shook his head and said, "She'll come back."

"Have you found anything yet?" Lei Cheng asked with a low voice.

Lan Lu shook his head again and sighed, "She's immune to my power. My spirit power can barely affect her. Can't you see that?"

Lei Cheng nodded, seeming to understand, but was still a little surprised. "I guess she's more than what we thought she is."

He was surprised that she was even able to ignore the hypnotizing guide from Lan Lu's level-eight spirit power. Was it because of her special body condition?

Earlier on, Lan Lu had been releasing his power when he said every word to Lin Qiao. The ordinary superpowered people would have lost their minds under his strong spirit power. Even if they could save themselves from falling into the full control of that power, they would be affected more or less.

However, Lin Qiao seemed not to be affected by Lan Lu's power which was delivered through his language at all. Besides, she looked straight at the front the whole time, and never made eye contact with him. All she did was give him a few quick glances.

"Of course! Otherwise, how is she going to manage so many people in her base?" Lan Lu looked at him with a small smile.

"You're right. Without some capabilities, how could she ever build a base?" Lei Cheng nodded.

On the other side, Lin Qiao and her squad were moving toward Wu Chengyue and the others. Her speed wasn't too high, because she was worried that her squad might not be able to catch up with her, and also believed that Wu Chengyue and the other two wouldn't end the fight so soon.

Soon, they began to sense waves of agitated lightning energy. The energy that belonged to level-eight beings was enormously strong.

Sands and stones were hovering in the sky; the energy stirred the air and caused strong gales. The whole area was occupied by a depressing, restless atmosphere.

Thunders could be heard from a distance. Lin Qiao raised her head and saw thick layers of dark clouds. Lightning constantly fell from those clouds, illuminating a small part of the sky.
