Xie Dong lay on the ground as he moved his hands and feet for a while, trying to get up. However, he failed in the end, so he just kept lying on the floor.

On the other side, it seemed that the zombie leader had lost its patience to keep waiting here.

After lying on the ground for a while, Xie Dong finally felt that he had regained control of his limbs, so he slowly sat up and took a breath of relief. He was apparently safe now.

He had to worry about being attacked by zombies when he was human. Unexpectedly,, he actually still needed to worry about the same problem even after becoming a zombie himself!

How difficult life was in the post-apocalyptic world!

At that moment, a figure appeared at the same spot where he showed up earlier.

It was Lin Qiao who had appeared out of thin air. She walked over to Xie Dong with the notepad and showed him what was written on it.

‘Do you have a map? A car?’

Xie Dong stood up from the ground and read her note, then raised his head to look at her in confusion, his eyes asking a question.

‘What do you need a map and a car for?’

The communication between Xie Dong and Lin Qiao was more than a little strange. He could deliver any thought to her by simply looking at her, but he had to read the words she wrote on the paper to find out what she was thinking!

He had a feeling that he was at quite a disadvantage!

Lin Qiao glanced at him, ignoring his thoughts as she started to write on the paper again.

‘To go to the bases in the South and look for somebody.’

Xie Dong nodded, understanding her goal. He didn’t have a map with him at the moment, but he could borrow one from others. He remembered that Huang Xiao and his men all had maps. As for the man with space power, Xie Dong didn’t know what all he had in his space.

Furthermore, he happened to have a car that must be currently in those people’s hands.

Thinking all this, he nodded at Lin Qiao.

The two of them had a short discussion, after which, they decided to go to find Xie Dong ‘s teammates who had betrayed him and take revenge first. They were zombies now, so it was much easier for them to find someone.

In fact, Lin Qiao had located those people long ago. Back when the level-five zombie leader was still chasing after Xie Dong, who hadn’t turned into a zombie yet, those people had sneakily come out of that man’s space and then left quickly.

Xie Dong didn’t notice any of this back then because he was too busy dealing with the zombie leader. However, Lin Qiao, who was observing the situation from inside her space at the time, had seen them and memorized the direction they were moving in.

Xie Dong saw her walk to an alley without hesitation, wondering why she was so sure that it was the right way. So, he reached out a hand behind her and patted on her shoulder.

Lin Qiao turned back to look at him, her eyes revealing a questioning look.

‘How do you know they went this way?’ Xie Dong was also asking her a question silently with his eyes.

Lin Qiao lowered her head and began writing on a piece of paper.

‘I saw them go this way earlier on. If you want to find them soon, cut the crap and move along with me now!’

Once she finished writing, she directly threw the paper at Xie Dong’s chest, then gave him a disdainful glance with her pure black eyes which lacked any hint of white, leaving him feeling despised without knowing what to say.

Xie Dong saw her continue moving forward and had no choice but to follow her silently. He suddenly thought of one other thing, so he again walked up and patted her on the shoulder.

Lin Qiao stopped walking and turned back. ‘Why hadn’t I found this man so garrulous before?’

This time, Xie Dong didn’t manage to figure out the meaning in Lin Qiao’s eyes. He could only point at his thigh’s level with his hand and ask her a question in his mind.

‘Aren’t you gonna send Chief Wu’s daughter back? He must be going crazy by now!’

Lin Qiao sneered. The expression on her face was quite weird.

‘Send her back? Hehe… I plan to take the little one away! I won’t give her back to that man! It would be even better if he does go crazy! He shouldn’t have struck me indiscriminately with lightning!’ she thought.

She wrote on the paper, ‘Stay out of this. Anyhow, the little girl won’t die or be eaten by me.’

Having finished writing, she gave Xie Dong a threatening glance, then turned around and kept walking.

Xie Dong didn’t dare to ask her any more questions this time as he received a pressure that made him feel being warned by her last glance.

…

As two zombies, Xie Dong and Lin Qiao walked casually in the alley. The shambling zombies around them either ignored or avoided them because of Lin Qiao’s vibe.

Xie Dong had never walked so calmly in a crowd of zombies. Before, he was always nervously on guard against zombie attacks, but now, it was the other zombies that avoided him on sight. This sharp contrast gave him a novel and strange feeling.

After proceeding along the road for a while, Lin Qiao suddenly stopped before a fork road, then raised her nose to sniff the air, seemingly confirming the direction. Xie Dong watched her do this and tried to do the same, but smelled nothing.

Lin Qiao sniffed for only a few times before she pointed to the left and began heading that way.

She knew that she had been able to smell all human beings within one kilometer around her earlier on. When Wu Chengyue arrived with his army, she had grasped a strong human smell from a long distance away.

However, she now felt that the scope of her sense of smell had grown, although she still needed to confirm that.

The geographical condition of this region wasn’t ideal. The surrounding area was blocked by buildings, as a result of which, a considerable number of odors which she could have smelled might have been blocked out by the buildings.

Ling Qiao took Xie Dong to somewhere behind a wall after taking a few turns. Then, she stopped and kept looking forward while giving a hint to Xie Dong by making a hand gesture behind her back.

Xie Dong’s eyes glowed with an intense focus on receiving Lin Qiao’s hint. What Lin Qiao’s gesture meant was that the target had shown up and he should get ready to move.

After that, Xie Dong saw her raise a hand and make a few gestures in a row with her body remaining motionless. He immediately relaxed his facial expression when saw her gestures and began acting like a normal person, only with his eyes slightly narrowed. When he was ready to move, Lin Qiao suddenly swung her arm and threw a black rifle into his hands.

It was his gun that had been left in her space.

When he received his gun, he had a strange feeling in his heart.

When he lost his gun earlier on, he had also lost his life. However, his life was back now, and so was his gun. Although it had only been a few hours, his life had changed into another form irreversibly.

While he was protecting the others, all that he got in return was their betrayal. He had used up his power and energy to defend them against the zombies, but they kicked him into the zombie crowd in the end as a ‘repayment’. He had thought that the zombies would eat him or dig out his energy nucleus, but he was ironically saved by a zombie, and then became a zombie himself.

It was weird that he had become a zombie with his intact old memories and an unchanged body.

With a complicated feeling in his heart, he looked at his hands which were holding the gun and wondered if his claws were also carrying the virus or not.

When Lin Qiao saw him still being in a daze, she suddenly raised a foot and kicked him directly on his butt, sending him staggering forward.

Kicked by Lin Qiao, Xie Dong leaped forward and finally realized what had happened. In the next instant, he changed his expression and quietly moved toward another building not far ahead with an aura of brutal ferocity.

Lin Qiao had shown him the precise location of his teammates by making the gestures earlier.

At this moment, the people in the building had no idea that the man they believed to have died in the hands of the zombies was approaching them with a monstrous killing intent.
