“What did you say?” Long Yubai froze in shock upon hearing Qin Wusheng’s words, staring at the latter with disbelief.

Qin Wusheng nodded and said, “You didn’t mishear me. He’s dead, and so is Huo Wu.”

Long Yubai gazed at him for a couple of seconds before he could react. Then, his pretty face wore a grim look and his voice turned a little dry. “What on earth happened?”

“I heard that a large number of high-leveled zombies suddenly entered Hades Base two days ago and killed lots of people. Those zombies even killed Yang Jianhua and Huo Wu. I guess it was a… zombie dominator which killed them!” Qin Wusheng slightly lowered his head to look at Long Yubai who was sitting on the couch.

“Where were those zombies from? Level-seven? Are there so many level-seven zombies now? They’re everywhere!” Long Yubai said through clenched teeth, wearing a sullen look.

“Everywhere? Are there more than one? I thought the one in Hades Base was the only one in the South,” said Qin Wusheng with confusion.

“Maybe that’s the only one in this area, but there’s one in Hangzhou too. I’ve met it,” said Long Yubai.

“Eh? No wonder you came back in such a bad state this time!” Qin Wusheng scratched his chin and responded while thinking.

“Yang Jianhua was such a useless idiot!” Long Yubai clicked his tongue and said, “He wasted a level-six zombie nucleus of mine!” Long Yubai didn’t care about Yang Jianhua’s death, but only about the zombie nucleus that he gave the other before leaving.

“Chief, Hades Base is probably empty now. We can rest a little now, right?” Qin Wusheng asked.

“Em… Oh, here’s a mission for you. Send some people to Hidden Cloud City Base and Sky Fire Base, informing them about those level-seven zombies,” said Long Yubai.

“Yes, sir!” Qin Wusheng nodded.

…

In the Upper City Base, Lin Qiao learned how Yun Meng and the others beat Long Yubai off and said, “He’ll soon know about Yang Jianhua’s death when he gets back. I guess he’ll send out his people to find out what exactly happened.”

“I think he’ll also sell the information about us having level-seven zombies in our base to other bases. Before long, he’ll join hands with Hidden Cloud City Base or Sky Fire Base again to attack us,” said Yuan Tianxing.

Lin Qiao and Lin Feng both nodded. They knew Long Yubai’s working style pretty well, so they could surely guess out his plan.

“I guess we’re not his only target. I’d like to see how he prepares to attack the Sea City Base. Does Wu Chengyue know about this?” Lin Qiao asked.

“He knows that Long Yubai visited here, but we don’t know if he knows his purpose as well. When Long Yubai came, he was planning to leave. He only stayed here to watch the show,” said Yuan Tianxing with a faint smile.

“He stayed here to watch the show?” Lin Qiao was a little speechless.

“At least, we think so,” Lin Feng made eye-contact with Yuan Tianxing and then said.

“But, he also wanted to see if there was anything that he could help with, since he was already here,” Yuan Tianxing smiled.

“Oh,” Lin Qiao responded, “But in the end, his help wasn’t needed at all, so he just watched the show.”

The others nodded in agreement.

“Alright! Li Zheng, you and your team get ready to head to Earth Dragon Base to gather intelligence. Qian Xiaoai, you have green power, so you go and assist them. If you find something important, send some of you back to report to me immediately,” Lin Qiao started to give out missions.

“I’ll tell Xie Dong to go with you. You’ll leave the base in three days.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Yes, Madam,” Li Zheng paused slightly, then immediately sat straight and responded.

“Yuan Tianxing, I’ve brought back quite a lot of people this time. Speed up the construction of the wall. Keep your eyes on them, and don’t let any accidents happen,” Lin Qiao said to Yuan Tianxing.

“Sure, I got it,” Yuan Tianxing gave her a few extra glances before nodding.

Lin Qiao then pulled her hands out of the pockets and waved at the table. Next, a map appeared on the table before her. She took out a pen and drew a circle in Hangzhou City on the map.

“Lin Feng, you, Lin Hao, and Du Yuanxing make a trip to this place. If I’m right, there is an army base, and it hasn’t had any visitors yet.”

“Where is it?” Lin Feng, Lin Hao, and Du Yuanxing all stood up, leaning their heads forward to look at the circle on the map.

When talking about work, Lin Qiao never called Lin Feng Big Brother. She only called him that in private. Similarly, Lin Feng always called Lin Qiao ‘Chief’ in front of the others, and only called her name in private.

Yuan Tianxing was sitting by Lin Qiao’s side, so he conveniently dragged the map over and pushed it to Lin Feng with his fingers.

“Do we have to wait for three days? Why don’t you let then go tomorrow? It’s getting colder and colder now, so I think these works should be done the earlier the better,” Yuan Tianxing turned to Lin Qiao and asked.

Lin Qiao glanced at him and replied, “Three days is just an estimated time. I need to improve Xie Dong’s zombie level first. He needs to upgrade to level-five at least before he can go to Earth Dragon Base and carry out the mission with Li Zheng and his people.”

“Oh, I see,” Yuan Tianxing nodded knowingly.

“Alright! Qingying, there’s no task for you at the moment. You stay here with the others to guard the base,” Lin Qiao clapped her hands and continued, “That’s it… The meeting is over!”

“Wait a moment! We all have missions, so what will you be doing?” Yuan Tianxing felt that something was not quite right, so he stopped Lin Qiao with a smile and asked.

“Ah, I’ll go farm the land! I think the land in Mount Wu can be developed and grow many things. We can’t always rely on the stored food, can we? We still need an agricultural base!” Lin Qiao responded.

“That is right, but do you plan to manage that farmland all alone? Don’t tell me that you’re going to make your zombie army do the farm work!” Thinking about Liu Jun, Shen Yujen, and the other zombies who were doing the farm work in Mount Wu area right now, Yuan Tianxing said with a complicated look.

“Hmm, you know me pretty well!” Lin Qiao nodded blandly.

Hearing her, the others all showed complicated expressions.

Their Chief had become a zombie, and now, she was going to make a group of zombies farm the land. Those were zombies. Were zombies supposed to do farm work?

Lin Qiao turned and disappeared in front of the roomful of people, leaving them looking at each other in confusion. At last, they all left to carry out their own missions.

Yun Meng and Qiu Lili, who had no tasks at the moment, didn’t leave through the door. Instead, they leaped out of the window and disappeared as well.

“Why don’t these zombies use the door? Are they all addicted to jumping in and out through windows?” Du Yuanxing glanced at the few widely opened windows. He remembered that the one who just gave out a series of missions liked to go through windows too.
