Chapter 699: Leave In Three Days

Lin Qiao looked at the two girls, who were both a little childish. However, Yun Meng could be calmer than Qiu Lili when she was serious. In terms of attacking ability, Qiu Lili was better at long-range attacks. But this time, Lin Qiao decided to take Yun Meng with her because the latter was also able to turn invisible. Invisibility was a good skill for assassination.

Lin Qiao would do the long-range attacking herself.

“Lili, you should keep an eye on the other high-leveled zombies in the base and Mount. Wu farmland. You’ve been out there for years… just stay at home this time,” Lin Qiao looked at Qiu Lili and said.

“Alright,” Qiu Lili responded reluctantly.

Then, Lin Qiao turned to Lin Feng and said, “Lin Feng, you can take some people out to collect supplies. Bring anything you find useful back.”

“I get it,” Lin Feng nodded.

Later that day, as Lin Wenwen received the task, she looked at Lin Qiao, who was standing at her door, and asked with surprise, “Eh? Am I going too?”

“You’ve been training yourself for so long. It’s time to see the results. The training that you had in the base is different from actual combat. Don’t you want to know how strong you are now?” Lin Qiao said.

Without the sense of crisis from actual combat, she would have no space for improvement. Currently, Lin Wenwen’s strength had grown, and reaction speed had raised. However, her strain capacity was limited. Her training had only lasted for a few months after all.

“Is there a problem?” Lin Qiao looked at her and asked.

Lin Wenwen glanced at her, then turned to look at Long Qingying, who was her tutor.

Long Qingying looked back at her, but said nothing.

“Good! Be ready… We’ll leave in three days,” Lin Qiao nodded, then turned and left with Duan Juan.

This time, Lin Wenwen didn’t hesitate, and neither did she reject the mission, for the reason that she only wanted to stay in the same place with Yuan Tianxing.

She needed to grow, and she needed to be strong. Her space power didn’t give her any attacking ability; which was why she needed to strengthen her body.

“How do you think my sister will conquer Hidden Cloud City? They have hundreds of thousands of people. Can we win?” Lin Wenwen closed the door, then turned around and asked Long Qingying.

“Those are hundreds of thousands of commoners. Don’t worry! I think Chief is only targeting those administrators of that base. Without Lu Zhuofeng, they are no match for our Chief,” Long Qingying was very confident about Lin Qiao.

Lin Wenwen nodded and said, “You’re right. I was overthinking.”

“You accepted the task pretty quickly this time. You’re going somewhere far away, and will stay out there for a while. You won’t be seeing your Brother Tianxing out there. Can you handle that?” Long Qingying looked at her expressionlessly and teased her.

Lin Wenwen stayed silent. A short while later, she responded, “He likes my sister. Haven’t you found that ever since he learned that my sister was still alive, his eyes are always on her? I don’t wish for him to pay attention to me, but I want to stand by his side. I need to be qualified for that, don’t I? I want to help my sister run the base, together with him. So, I need to make it to that place with my own strength.”

“Well, it might take you a long time based on your current state,” Long Qingying said.

“It’s okay… I won’t give up, no matter how long it takes,” Lin Wenwen smiled as her eyes glowed filled with determination.

Long Qingying still wore no expression. She looked at Lin Wenwen and sighed silently, but didn’t say anything.

Duan Juan knew what Lin Wenwen was like before. With concern, she followed behind Lin Qiao and said to her, “Is it really okay for Wenwen to come with us? She has changed quite a lot, though.”

Lin Wenwen was like a princess before. Duan Juan believed that even though she had changed, she would still be stubborn sometimes. She used to carry out missions together with Lin Wenwen, as the latter’s space could be used for storing food. Back then, they always had a squad to protect her. At present, the new base was already short-handed, so Duan Juan wasn’t sure if they could still spare attention to keep Lin Wenwen safe during the mission.

“She is much different from before now. She wants to grow strong, so I’ll give her a chance. If she can’t do this, where would she find the confidence that can impress Yuan Tianxing?” Lin Qiao gave a faint smile.

Three days later, Lin Qiao left with a few combat cars early in the morning.

As the intelligence squad, Li Zheng and his people left earlier, driving an off-road car. Soon after they left the base, Lin Qiao found some people near the border between West Lake District and Upper City District.

She flashed across the air and showed up on the roof of Li Zheng’s car.

“Stop!”

The car was stopped. Li Zheng stuck his head out of the window and saw Lin Qiao leap down the roof.

“Li Zheng, take some people to see who they are,” Lin Qiao looked at that area and said.

“Yes, Ma’am!” Li Zheng and his people quickly got off the car and moved into the woods nearby, then sneaked toward the area that Lin Qiao pointed at.

Lin Qiao returned to the motorcade, where Duan Juan and Xie Dong were standing before her car, looking at her. Behind them, Lin Wenwen got out of the car while Long Qingying jumped off the car roof.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Wenwen glanced at Lin Qiao. It seemed that they needed to stop there for a while.

“Something happened in the front. We’ll stay here for a while and wait for Li Zheng to come back,” Lin Qiao looked at that area and said.

Those people were only about three miles away. The strongest one among them was a level-six, and the rest were all at level five and four. They shouldn’t be able to sense Lin Qiao and her people.

Before long, Li Zheng and his people returned.

“They are from Hidden Cloud City. Over two-hundred people, led by Qi Hanhui the Deputy Chief. About ten of them are at level-five, thirty at level-four,” Li Zheng told Lin Qiao about what he had roughly found out.

“Qi Hanhui? Em, what else?” Lin Qiao scratched her chin and asked.

“They seemed to have sent out some people to scout. Right now, I think they are waiting for them,” said Li Zheng.

Li Zheng’s squad only observed those people from a distance, and didn’t get too close. Therefore, they could only vaguely identify them and make guesses about their current situation.

“Wait? Scout?” Lin Qiao put her left arm before her chest as her right elbow rested on the back of her left hand. While touching her chin with her right hand, she thought for a moment.

“I think they’re here for us. A few batches of people have arrived during these couple of days, but not all of them are from Hidden Cloud Base…” Lin Qiao murmured.

According to Mo Yan, the one that he tortured to death was from the West, meaning that he was from Hidden Cloud Base. Hidden Cloud Base sent two level-six men with two-hundred people. Currently, one of the two level-six had died. Clearly, they weren’t here just to scout.

They should have also been searching for Lu Zhuofeng.
