Hearing that, the others all started to blame the fate as well.?Liu Jing opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything.?Under such a situation, it was understandable for these people to have negative feelings.
But at that time, one of them said, “It’s okay. It’s better than letting the others die. If some people have to die here today, then let it be us. I’m fine with it. If we survive, I’ll take it as I’ve earned an extra life.”
“Two…lives…” Suddenly, a hoarse voice joined the conversation.
“What two lives? Where can we find two lives?” The five didn’t recognize that voice and responded without thinking. But in three to four seconds, they quickly raised their heads to look at the door, as if they had woken up from a dream with a start.
They saw a person standing by the door, but didn’t know when she arrived.
She was wearing a military vest, a part of her slim waist exposed. The loose-fitting camouflage trousers and combat boots didn’t manage to hide the beautiful shape of her long and slender legs. A camouflage coat was wrapped around her shoulders; she was also wearing a hat and a pair of sunglasses.
She crossed her arms before her chest while looking at the five calmly and blandly.
“Sis-sister!” Liu Jing recognized her the first, then rushed at Lin Qiao with excitement and joy. “Sister! You’re here! We thought we were dead this time!” He howled with a crying face.
Lin Qiao took a small step aside to dodge him while maintaining a perfect composure.
‘I don’t know you well, so I don’t want a passionate hug from you! And why are you crying? You’re a man!’ Lin Qiao thought.
The others looked at her in shock. The man who was radiating a strong negative emotion just now stood up from the ground.?Lin Qiao raised a hand to show them two fingers, then said, “You…owe…me…two…lives…”
As she finished talking, the others all realized what had just happened. They felt that they were riding a roller coaster, being thrown up and down from time to time.?The few despairing people even wanted to jump onto Lin Qiao and hug her hard, even though one of them had just tried once and failed.
They called Lin Qiao sister because they were all young men. The eldest one among them was twenty-five; before the apocalypse, he was just a college student. The others were at high school when the old world ended, and now were only around twenty years old.
As the powerful Lin Qiao was able to save them, they were even willing to call her Grandma.?They excitedly listened to her words, then finally calmed themselves a little.
The oldest one among the five was named Zheng Xiaonian. His name was rather cute, but he was a composed young man.?He stared at Lin Qiao and said, “Two lives! I owe you two lives! I’ll follow you from now on! I’ll abandon Captain Lu!”
Lin Qiao found his words amusing. She waved a hand to him and said, “Don’t…say…that…now”
‘Your boss is in my space right now. Is it really okay for you to openly betray him like that?’ While thinking, she reached out a hand to drag Liu Jing and Zheng Xiaonian, who were the nearest to her, into her space. In the next second, she flashed out and brought the others in.
Once in, Liu Jing saw Lu Tianyi and the others and rushed at them while yelling, “Captain!”?Lu Tianyi and the others didn’t dodge, just stood still and caught him.?Liu Jing was young as well. He matured quite a lot after the apocalypse, but still, he relied on his bosses.
Lu Tianyi hugged him and patted his back to comfort him. He knew that the five were just saved from a very dangerous situation, so he understood how they must have felt.
He turned to look at Lin Qiao. He was going to say thank you to her, but before that, he saw her walk to the bucket beside the stove.
She opened the lid, picked up the water scoop, and handed it to them while saying, “Here…drink…”
Xie Dong walked to her side, then turned and looked at the group of people.?Huang Shou looked at him, then at Lin Qiao, and said, “Is she inviting us all to drink?”
Lin Qiao nodded at him, then turned to Lu Tianyi, who hesitated. He and Kong Qingming glanced at each other. They both knew that Lin Qiao was a zombie, so they were worried that the water might not be safe.
However, the others didn’t have the same doubts. Seeing the water, they all rushed up.?They didn’t think as much as their bosses did. Just now, Huang Shou and a few of the others wanted to directly drink from the lake when they came in, but their bossed stopped them.?They thought that drinking from the lake without the permission of its owner was impolite, so they didn’t ask a question but gave up.
But now, as the lake owner had invited them to drink, they just ignored their bosses.
The few people darted to Lin Qiao as Huang Shou grabbed the water scoop from her hand, got some water from the bucket, and then directly poured into his mouth.
“Eh…” Seeing that, Lu Tianyi reached out a hand but didn’t manage to say a word. He watched Huang Shou pour a big half scoopful of water into his mouth, then recalled that he had eaten a mutant strawberry provided by the zombie lady. Nothing happened to him yet, but…
He sighed.
Huang Shou filled his stomach with water, then handed the scoop to one of the others.?Then, he asked Liu Jing, “What happened you just now on the outside? What did you see?”
Lin Qiao had told them that the creature out there was a level-six zombie king, but they didn’t believe it.?However, they all understood that finding a zombie king in this place was just a normal thing, as lots of level-five zombie leaders were living here.
Liu Jing glanced at Lin Qiao, then replied, “One zombie, seems to be at level-six…thunder power. Where we were just now, the area hundred-meters squared was nearly flattened by lightning bolts. We rushed into a building just now, or we would have been burned by now.”
Finishing talking, he fixed his eyes on the water in the bucket. Seeing the others drinking happily, he couldn’t help but push Huang Shou away and get closer to the bucket.
Hearing him mention a level-six zombie, Huang Zhou gave a start, then looked at Lin Qiao with surprise.?He had heard that people called level-six zombies kings and queens. A level-six zombie could be incredibly powerful, such that a level-six superpowered human being would either be killed or disabled by a zombie king or queen unless that human was as powerful as a base leader.
That zombie king out there had thunder power. So, exactly how powerful was it?
And more importantly, how did the lady save the five from the legendary zombie king?
At that point, Zheng Xiaonian walked over and said, “A huge zombie crowd showed up in the area without lightning. We were trapped in the building. If we had gone out, we would have been attacked by the zombie crowd.”
He was trying to say that if the mysterious lady didn’t bring them into her space, they might have really died this time.
