Chapter 515 - Countermeasures

Liu Jun and the other zombies found that those seeds sprouted in just a couple of days after they were planted. They were very surprised, even though those sprouts were still tiny. Normally, pumpkin seeds would sprout about a week after they were planted. However, the seeds which had been soaked in diluted lake water sprouted in less than three days.

Seeing those seeds sprout in the soil which was loosened by themselves, Xie Dong and the others all sighed in relief. Taking care of the farmland was a mission that Lin Qiao had given them. They were happy that they didn’t let her down. Moreover, they had an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

“I wonder when Lin Qiao will come back, and how things are going on her side,” said Liu Jun while watering those pumping sprouts.

“She’ll be back when she finishes what she needs to do,” Yun Meng squatted on the ground as she stared at a potato plant while answering Liu Jun’s question.

“Who are those people that you went out to stop from approaching earlier today ?” Liu Jun asked.

“Ah, they said that they’re going after that robber leader named Tang He. Also, their subordinates aren’t human beings! Those were a few zombie leaders and a zombie king.” Recalling what happened earlier today, Yun Meng abruptly raised her head as she looked at Liu Jun and said.

“What?” Liu Jun was stunned a little. She paused, then turned back to look at Yun Meng. Not only her, both Xie Dong and Shen Yujen turned to Yun Meng.

Yun Meng stood up and said to them, “Yeah, those were zombies, at rather high levels. They didn’t look like mindless zombies. Instead, they seemed to have memories.”

The others glanced at each other.

It was the first time they heard about other zombies with clear minds. Those zombies even had memories. They didn’t have memories before meeting Lin Qiao.

Xie Dong and Shen Yujen became zombies with memories because of Lin Qiao… At least, that’s what they thought.

And now, they suddenly heard there were other zombies with memories, clear minds, and intelligence like themselves. They had a strange feeling about it, as if they had just found their kind.

But soon, they thought of the possible standpoints of those mysterious zombies and calmed down.

“Since they’re even traveling with zombies, do zombies and human beings live together in their base? Like in our base? And, why do they want that robber?” Liu Jun frowned slightly and asked.

“They said that Tang He was a traitor of their base, so they formed a squad and chased him all the way here. We haven’t heard about the name of the base that they told us, so we can’t tell if what they said is real or not. Mr. Lin said that if what they said is real, they should be hunting that robber because they don’t want him to leek the secret about their base,” Yun Meng told the others about what Lin Feng said.

Liu Jun made an eye-contact with Xie Dong, then slightly dropped her eyelids and said while thinking, “In that case, Lin Feng might be right. That robber was probably seeking protection. That might be the reason why he tried to get in Sea City Base. In fact, he didn’t dare to leak the secret of that base, because once he did, he’d leak his location as well.”

“Em, yes, yes, that’s what Mr. Lin said,” Yun Meng quickly nodded.

“So, although they’ve left now, they’ll still be back after they have confirmed that the robber disappeared here. Mengmeng, you have to pay close attention to the outskirts of the base!” The more Liu Jun thought about it, the more she felt that those people’s purpose wasn’t as simple as they claimed.

“Em… Mr. Lin said that we do need to stay alert about this. He’ll talk to Yuan Tianxing and the others about it too. I only need to show up to overawe the enemies. They’ll do the rest of the job,” said Yun Meng relaxedly. She didn’t take those people seriously. She wasn’t afraid of them, even if she did need to fight them.

Even though there was no zombie king or queen in Upper City Base now, there were three superpowered ones. Together, they wouldn’t lose to that zombie king in that group.

Liu Jun wasn’t as relaxed as Yun Meng, because she figured that those people would have the same thoughts. If they showed up again soon, things might not be too bad; but if they didn’t come back for a long time, they might be heading back to gather an army.

They might be a scouting squad!

Perhaps, that robber was just an excuse.

At the same time, Lin Feng and the others were talking about those people in an office in the hotel as well.

“A level-seven superpowered man, a level-six superpowered man, a zombie king, and three level-five zombies… This combination can compete with us,” Yuan Tianxing sat behind the desk, resting both elbows on the desk while talking.

“I’m worrying that they may be using that robber as an excuse. They may have some other purpose,” said Lin Feng with a frown.

“That’ll depend on when will they show up again. If they didn’t show up in two or three days, I think we’ll be in huge trouble,” said Yuan Tianxing.

“What… should we do?” Chen Yuting sat beside him and asked.

Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng had made it very clear. If those people showed up again within three days, their words would be proven to be true. After they confirmed that that robber did disappear in this area, they would come back to directly ask Upper City Base people about his whereabouts.

If they didn’t show up again in three or five days, they might be up to something bigger. If a war was started, the people in the new base might not be strong enough to stop the enemies.

“Should we send people to Sea City Base and ask for help again?” Before Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng responded, Chen Yuting continued.

Lin Feng turned to Yuan Tianxing. He did want to send his people to Sea City Base to ask for reinforcements.

The latter thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “I think we should. Let’s send a level-five superpowered one to Sea City Base and deliver the message. If only we can send someone to approach those people and find out about their true intention…”

Lin Feng and Chen Yuting made an eye-contact, both seeming to disagree.

“That’s a good idea, but one of them is a level-seven powerful being. Also, they have zombies and a dog! A level-five-or-six mutated dog! Which one of our people can successfully approach them without being spotted?” said Lin Feng

Yuan Tianxing sighed. What Lin Feng mentioned was indeed an unsolvable problem. If only Miss. Lu were here… She was traceless like a ghost, and a mutated dog shouldn’t be a problem in her eyes.

Perhaps, she would even skin that dog and eat it.

“That’s why I said ‘if only’. If we’re really gonna send someone, we should either send the strongest one or the weakest one. After all, they can’t sense the creatures stronger than themselves, and they won’t be on alert against the weaker ones,” Yuan Tianxing thought for a moment and then said.
