Chapter 822: Back To The Base

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

It was about nine pm when Lin Qiao returned to the base. She didn’t inform the others, but went straight back to the hotel. Once in, she saw Qiu Lili, Yun Meng, Liu Jun, and a group of zombies waiting for her in the lobby.

Qiu Lili happily walked up to Lin Qiao and held her hands as she asked, “How did it go? Did the zombie emperor die?”

Lin Qiao let herself be dragged to a couch by Qiu Lili, then sat down and said, “No, but many of his subordinates died.”

On hearing that, Qiu Lili showed a disappointed look. “What? He didn’t die? Why did you come back then? Is Huaxia Base’s crisis over yet?”

The others had also been looking at Lin Qiao curiously. They hadn’t heard any details yet.

Lin Qiao glanced at the others, then nodded and said, “The zombie emperor didn’t die, but his nucleus cracked. He can’t use his power for the time being.”

Qiu Lili’s eyes glowed. She was happy to know that Mo Yan’s power was disabled.

“Really? I see. It’s still good! As long as he is suffering. Without his power, he’s just like an ordinary zombie, right?” Qiu Lili sighed with relief, then laughed happily. Hearing about the zombie emperor’s misfortune could really make her happy.

Looking at her happy face, Lin Qiao decided not to tell her that Mo Yan was actually in her space, or she might become unhappy.

“I heard that the third batch of people arrived at the base today, and there are a lot of them. Have you made arrangements for the injured ones yet?” She turned to the others and changed the topic.

“Yes, but our people who are from Hades Base are very unhappy about that. Mr. Lin told Du Yuanxing to accommodate them near the southern wall. The buildings in that area still need furnishing. They are only staying there temporarily. We’ll make further arrangements in the future,” Xie Dong, who was standing behind Lin Qiao, said while reading the files that he had received just now, “Four-thousand, five-hundred, and ninety-six men came here today, mostly injured and weak due to starvation. They brought here eight-hundred and eighty-seven women, and about two-hundred children.”

He, his squad, and Lu Tianyi came out of Lin Qiao’s base on their way back. They returned to the base ahead of her and gathered the files about what happened recently in the base from Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng.

Lin Qiao nodded and said expressionlessly, “It’s normal that Hades Base people hate those Earth Dragon Base people. They were victims. However, the people who deserved to die have been killed, and the ones who planned the whole thing are dead too. We don’t need to always make compromises for those Hades people now.”

“Yes, ma’am,” Duan Juan nodded.

“Who’s leading those people?” Lin Qiao asked.

“Jian Shengtong, a Deputy Chief from Earth Dragon Base, and Xia Yushen, the leader of Rain God Hunters, the most famous hunting group in Earth Dragon Base. The two of them were leading together. Some other people from Earth Dragon Base and Hidden Cloud Base had pursued them on their way here.” This time, Yun Meng answered the question.

Lin Qiao nodded and said, “I know the two of them. Spread the words to the Hades Base people in our base and tell them that neither of them supported Long Yubai when he attacked Hades Base, and that they didn’t join the attack. They are innocent.”

The others understood her meaning. Knowing about that might ease the hatred that the current All Being Base people had toward those new members. Over time, they would accept them.

“I get it,” Duan Juan nodded.

“Apart from those Earth Dragon Base survivors, some other people came here today. They look like a scout team. I think they’re here to collect information about our base. We don’t know where they came from yet,” Yun Meng added.

“Have you sent people following them?” Lin Qiao looked at Yun Meng without changing her expression.

Yun Meng nodded and said, “Yeah, I sent Five and Six.”

The strongest man among those people was at level-six, so Yun Meng sent zombie number five and zombie number six after them. She was with six zombies before she showed up in front of Jian Shengtong and his people. On her way to find Jian Shengtong’s troop, she saw some other people sneaking around, so she ordered Five and Six after to follow them.

Five was the female zombie who loved to see pretty men and Six was a male zombie, recruited along with the old man and the boy. Currently, he was a zombie king. As an earth-powered zombie king and a level-five green-powered zombie leader, they should be able to get out almost any trouble that might occur.

Lin Qiao nodded, then thought for a moment and said, “in Huaxia Base, Green Mountain Base people seem to be very interested in our base. It might be them. But, if you are sure that they’re all humans, I think it’s not them. It might be the Sky Fire Base people. They didn’t show up in Huaxia Base this time, but had lingered near the base the whole time.”

She had sensed those people back in Huaxia Base, but didn’t tell anyone.

Based on the direction those people came from, they were either from Hidden Cloud City Base or Sky Fire Base. Hidden Cloud City Base had fallen, so they were surely from the Sky Fire Base. They weren’t planning to help at all. What did they want? Merely watching?

Some of the others frowned slightly, especially Liu, Duan Juan and the others who were from Hades Base. They all showed a fierce look in their eyes.

“I’ll go and take a look later. If they have seen the zombie wall already, I’ll need to deal with them.” Lin Qiao decided to go and find those people, in case they dug out some secrets about her base and leaked them.

Hearing that, the others clearly understood that she was going to kill those people to keep the base’s secret.

As the meeting was over, people left the lobby.

At that time, tens of miles from All Beings Base, a group of people had been observing All Beings Base.

“Chief, this base is different from the others,” Xu Changmu made a trip to Upper City District, then returned and reported to Gu Yikang with a serious look.

Gu Yikang’s average-looking face still wore no expression, yet his vibe seemed to be very dark, matching with the darkness of the night. “Different? How?” He asked with a bland voice.

“I think they… they’re keeping zombies!” said Xu Changmu.

Gu Yikang blinked, then stared at him with disbelief and asked, “What?”

Xu Changmu thought for a moment, then explained with a strange look on his face, “I saw it. The base is surrounded by zombies. Those zombies have blocked every path that leads into the base. And earlier today, those zombies let the group of people in without hurting them. The large crowd of zombies just moved away from the road. They were all quiet. Not a single one of them pounced on those people like a normal zombie!”

“What do you mean? Quiet zombies? A large crowd? How come I never saw a zombie crowd like that?” Gu Yikang sneered. He didn’t really believe Xu Changmu, but also felt a little curious about those strange zombies.

Which zombie crowd wouldn’t swarm toward humans like a pack of wolves that had smelled flesh and blood?
