Zombie Sister Strategy-Chapter 1415: Strong Wakes Up
“Isn’t that chief still in a coma? How come you made it sound like he’s woken up already?” Lu Tianyi felt a little confused.
While walking in the catmint field, Lin Qiao responded, “Relax! The energy from my lake will always work.”
Lu Tianyi turned to glance at the lake and didn’t say anything else. Lin Qiao had given him the answer, so he didn’t need to ask any other questions. Walking in the catmint field and looking at those thriving catmint plants, she sighed with relief.
…
Si Kongchen spent a few days staying where he was, waiting for Lin Qiao to exit her space. During that span of time, he had never sensed any trace of her. He couldn’t even tell if she was still hiding in her space or had slipped away using her invisibility.
Even though he believed that he was able to detect anything that contained energies, he wasn’t confident that he could catch Lin Qiao. After all, she was a special one. He wasn’t sure if she had some other abilities that could allow her to hide from his radar. Therefore, the longer he waited, the more agitated he felt.
Wei Haichao found him and said, “Those underground creatures have finished upgrading. The ones that have successfully upgraded are now gathering again. The drug is still in production, so we can’t drive them crazy now. They’re starving but still sane.”
To deliver a better effect, they had to make those creatures go mad.
“Have All Beings Base and Sea City Base been taking any actions?” Sea City Base asked.
Wei Haichao nodded and said, “Yes. In this couple of days, large numbers of zombies have gathered around All Beings Base. The zombie crowds are surrounding the entire base from four different directions. But for some reason, those zombies stopped moving forward exactly ten miles from the base.”
A massive zombie crowd showing up near a base was a very normal thing. That had happened just a few days ago to Huaxia Base. However, zombies surrounding a base while keeping a distance from it was definitely abnormal. Usually, a zombie crowd wouldn’t scatter, unless it was controlled by a very powerful zombie.
Earlier, the lightning-powered zombie emperor had done that. However, that was the only known zombie emperor so far. For zombies, upgrading wasn’t an easy thing.
Was there another zombie emperor? Or, did that lightning-powered one return? Was that zombie emperor giving All Beings Base trouble again?
Si Kongchen would be happy to see that happen. Zombies had surrounded All Beings Base; that was, he believed, surely not a good thing for the base.
“I guess they’ll have to face both those zombies and those underground creatures this time,” Si Kongchen said with a vicious smile. He also learned that the underground creatures had scouted around some human bases and were clearly preparing to launch attacks. Their traces weren’t only found near All Beings Base, but also spotted around Huaxia Base.
As for the zombies around All Beings’ Base, Si Kongchen believed that they were going to attack that base for sure. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have shown up near that base. After all, the blood and flesh of humans were as tempting to zombies as drugs.
At that time, in an old zoo on the southwest side outside All Beings Base, a special group of underground creatures was quietly hiding in the underground cave, hunting mutated rats. They were special because first, they were afraid of light, and second, they didn’t take part in the group upgrade. Also, they looked like gorillas.
They had settled down in the zoo area because that area provided them with a rich source of food. Those rats lived underground as well, so they didn’t need to go up to the earth’s surface for hunting anymore.
The number of underground gorillas wasn’t large, but the population of mutated rats was gigantic. Those rats also reproduced rapidly, even though they had undergone mutation. As same as before, they normally had over ten pups in one birth.
Strong, who had been sleeping for months, suddenly opened his eyes and mouth and uttered a growl. His voice traveled in the underground tunnels and soon was heard by the other underground gorillas. On hearing his order, the other underground gorillas immediately jumped into action and headed toward a rat nest.
After giving that roar, Strong closed his eyes and lay down again. Soon, a series of squeaking sounds were heard from a distance. Those sounds made him reopen his eyes and slowly get up.
About ten large rats were dragged toward his cave. Those rats were at level five or six, able to burrow swiftly. Therefore, those underground gorillas had to grip on them very tightly while bringing them toward Strong’s cave, in case they got away. If they let go, those fluffy animals would dig into the earth and escape within a blink.
Strong crawled out of his cave and walked to his children. Then, it picked up a screaming rat with each hand and started eating.
Crack! He sank his teeth into a rat’s neck and then pulled its body outward, causing blood to splash everywhere as the rat’s head was instantly separated from its body. Strong chewed the rat’s head loudly and quickly swallowed it. Then, he bit off the head of the other rat. While chewing the second rat head, he started walking toward the outside.
He chewed his food in the darkness, and blood spilled out of his mouth from between his teeth. The two rat bodies held in his hands were still shedding blood.
As Strong was walking toward the outside, his children who were providing him with food followed him and kept handing him more rats. After finishing about ten rats, Strong finally walked out of the deeper area of the underground cave.
He walked near the exit and leaned forward to sniff outside, seemingly trying to sense something from the air on the outside.
An underground creatures gathering spot was located about eight miles away from the cave. At the moment, no underground creatures were there fighting each other anymore. What they had left was body parts all over the ground, a strong blood scent in the air, and the energies that had leaked out of their bodies during the upgrade.
Sensing all that, Strong figured out about what had happened. He shrank back and exhaled a few times heavily before shaking his head and waving a hand under his nose. He seemed to not like that odor from the outside
