Zombie Sister Strategy

Lin Qiao followed Si Kongchen there. Si Kongchen wasn’t a possessor of wind power, so he was no faster than Lin Qiao. When he landed by Wei Haichao’s side, Lin Qiao had already darted up to Lin Kui.

“Don’t move…” While fleeing forward, Lin Kui suddenly heard a familiar voice from next to his ear. He recognized that voice: it was none other than the female zombie who was with him not long ago.

As he paused slightly, a hand landed on his shoulder and pulled him gently. Next, his eyes were dazzled. When he could see again, he was already in another place.

The moment Lin Qiao and Lin Kui disappeared, Si Kongchen and Wei Haichao paused simultaneously.

“Eh? It’s so weird!” Wei Haichao stopped moving and looked ahead with both surprise and doubts, then dropped his eyelids to focus on his sensations. Soon, he confirmed that the vibe of that zombie had disappeared without a trace.

“What’s wrong?” Li Yuelong raised an arm and signaled for the troop behind him to stop moving. After that, he landed beside Wei Haichao and asked.

“It’s gone!” Wei Haichao opened his eyes and murmured with confusion, “How did that happen? Does Macuy have some hidden ability?”

The zombie disappeared suddenly. Wei Haichao pondered for a moment, then thought of space possessors. A space could indeed block any kind of scents and vibes. If the zombie didn’t have a space, it must have met a space possessor.

However, he didn’t sense anyone approaching Macuy. All he sensed was the zombie disappearing all of a sudden.

“It’s impossible… If it had a space, why didn’t it use the space earlier? We wouldn’t have been able to do anything to it once it entered its own space! It would have run straight away!” Wei Haichao said with a frown.

At that moment, a figure flashed across the woods. Si Kongchen came back and landed beside Wei Haichao, asking with a serious look, “What’s going on? Have you sensed its location?”

Wei Haichao looked at him and shook his head, “I can’t. It suddenly disappeared!”

“That’s impossible! It must have hidden away! Go, bring more people! Surround this whole area and search for the zombie!” Si Kongchen frowned slightly, then said to Li Yuelong.

“Yes, sir!” Li Yuelong responded immediately, then turned and gave his order to a squad leader behind him.

Outside the farm, the other base leaders gathered together to watch the show.

“Ah, look at this farmland. It’s over a thousand acres, isn’t it? I guess they’re expecting a rich harvest. Huaxia Base is rich indeed. It’s impressive that they can feed two-million people,” Lu Zhuofeng looked at the endless, green farmland and smilingly said something that everyone already knew.

“Chief Lu, you don’t need to be jealous of them. You’d be able to create large farmland like this too if you found more water-powered, earth-powered, and green-powered people, or people with special superpowers who are able to purify the polluted soil,” Wu Chengyue responded with a bland smile.

“I finally see the famous Huaxia Farm today. It is thriving indeed,” Gao Haoyun from Heilong Base looked at the farmland before him, his eyes filled with thirst and admiration.

Heilong Base was located in the Northeast, and the weather there was never good. After the apocalypse, the soil had changed, so farming had become even more difficult. Therefore, the planting had been going terribly in Heilong Base. The survival rate of the plants in that base had always been low, and even with the surviving plants, the harvest was never good.

One other reason was that the base lacked talents. The capable people had all left the Northeast and joined Huaxia Base.

“Oh, they stopped!” Wu Chengyue said, the smile on his face suddenly growing bigger.

The others paused slightly, then immediately figured that he was talking about Si Kongchen and his people. Then, they used their sensations and soon found that Si Kongchen had really paused shortly. After that, he started moving again, but seeming to become aimless. He stopped from time to time, as if he was hesitating.

“What’s happening? Em, that zombie’s vibe…” The group of people couldn’t sense Lin Kui’s vibe clearly as they had been far away. After all, Lin Kui had been hiding his vibe intentionally. They felt that his vibe seemed to have disappeared, but also felt that it was still there.

“It’s gone,” Lu Zhuofeng spent a short while sensing the vibe in the wind. Within five miles radius around Si Kongchen, he couldn’t sense that zombie’s vibe. This was a surprise considering he could still sense that zombie not long ago.

“Oh my, it disappeared right under Si Kongchen’s eyes! Si Kongchen is going to be so angry, isn’t he?” Lan Lu smiled and said.

“That’s for sure! I’d have exploded, haha!” Lu Zhuofeng laughed, as if he was taking pleasure in the other’s misfortune.

“It’s strange though! How did the zombie disappear? Why don’t we go over there and see what’s going on? They’re too far away from here!” Lu Zhuofeng blinked and said.

“You can go if you want. I’m not really interested. We’re all here anyway. None of us has left. In this case, Si Kongchen has no reason to blame any of us for stealing that zombie, right? Does that zombie have a space? Maybe it has been hiding it,” Wu Chengyue gave Lu Zhuofeng a glance with a smile, then turned to look at Si Kongchen.

“That’s highly possible… Perhaps, it took an opportunity to hide in its space back when it was locked up. Then, when everybody thought that it was stolen, it sneakily came out and freed itself. That zombie seems to be really smart!” Lan Lu thought for a moment, then gave his own assumption with a serious face.

He might be right though. If the zombie really had a space, it might suddenly hide in its space when the tranquilizer wore off. That could really happen.

What could also happen was that when the thieves sneakily got it out of the lab, the zombie woke up and launched a counterattack and then ran away. That could be how the current situation came about.

Lan Lu surely wouldn’t say that the zombie might have been stolen by some people from another base. He had no evidence after all. Therefore, he made his assumption in a way that would not offend anyone.

Wu Chengyue blinked, then nodded slightly and agreed with Lan, “I think Chief Lan is right. That zombie might have run away by itself. However, Si Kongchen insisted on making us take the blame. So shameless!”

“Oh, you said that, not me! Wu Chengyue, you’re the only one who has the guts to call Si Kongchen shameless!” Lan Lu immediately teased him.

“Am I wrong? Eh?” Wu Chengyue carelessly raised his eyebrows, the smile on his face unchanged.

“Eh-hem, you’re not wrong… But, if I were Si Kongchen, I’d certainly be unhappy upon hearing what you said!” Li Zhengye suddenly joined the conversation.

“We were unhappy when he threatened us. Why would we let him be happy now?” Wu Chengyue continued smiling, “Besides, he’s not here!”
