“They didn’t see you, did they?” Lin Qiao looked at Li Zheng and asked .
“No, we didn’t get close to them,” Li Zheng shook his head .
“It’s only about two-hundred people, including one level-six . Wenwen, Qingying, you two come with me to finish them . The others, follow behind us,” Lin Qiao thought for a moment, then turned and called Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying .
By following behind, she meant that the others should move slowly behind her and the two girls, and wait for them to fix the problem .
Having finished talking, Lin Qiao flashed into the woods nearby . Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying didn’t say anything but followed closely behind her .
Long Qingying was wearing a black wind coat, with her katana was tied around her waist . Lin Wenwen was in a camouflage suit, with a hat and a pair of ankle boots . She followed behind Long Qingying and nimbly moved through the woods, showing no sign of impatience, even though the geographical condition was difficult .
Qi Hanhui and his people were waiting for Weiming to return with information . They had no idea that Weiming was killed a couple of days ago, and that the people who were going to end their lives were coming right at them .
“You two, wait here . If you see people running this way, kill them… Do not show mercy!” Lin Qiao led Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying to a spot about eight-hundred meters away from Qi Hanhui and his people . They hid there, and Lin Qiao handed her telescope to Lin Wenwen .
She glanced at Lin Wenwen and asked her seriously, “Can you do that?”
Lin Wenwen took over the telescope as she looked at Lin Qiao, then at the enemies . She clenched her teeth and nodded . “I can do that . ”
She had never killed anyone before . But, she would not shrink!
“Good then!” Lin Qiao nodded and stood up, disappearing in front of the two girls .
About eight-hundred meters away, Qi Hanhui and his people were hiding in a factory building . Their cars were parked on the clearing before the building .
“It’s been four days . I wonder if Deputy Chief Wei has found out anything about that base or not,” Qi Hanhui’s assistant stood beside Qi Hanhui as he handed him a bottle of water .
“What can those Hades Base survivors possibly do? People say that they have built a new base in Hangzhou City, but I don’t believe it . There are even more zombies in that city than in West Lake,” Qi Hanhui took over the bottle carelessly, then unscrewed the cap and poured some water into his mouth .
“But, the people we sent out last time haven’t returned . Perhaps, they met Deputy Chief Wei,” said the assistant .
“I suppose so . I wonder what Chief and the others are planning on . They specifically asked us to come here to find out the truth about that new base if we have time . What is to be found out though? They are not a threat to our base anyway,” Qi Hanhui clearly didn’t agree with his superiors .
“You’re right,” his assistant agreed with him .
About ten people were guarding outside the factory building while the others were all lazily staying on the second floor of the building . The surrounding zombies had been cleaned out . They had also created a clearing before the building .
The electric gate of the factory had been closed to keep all the ordinary zombies away . A group of clumsy ordinary zombies was on the other side of the gate . The soldiers who guarded around the building didn’t shoot them . They were guarding against the zombies at level-two, level-three, even level four and five . No one would want to waste bullets on those ordinary zombies .
An invisible figure leaped across the janitor’s room which was located next to the gate, then landed on the clearing before the building .
Lin Qiao walked toward the stairs calmly . Two soldiers were guarding by the stairs .
“It’s so freaking cold! When can we go back? We’ve been out here for a month!”
“Shh! Keep your voice down . If Deputy Chief hears you, you’ll suffer . ”
“I just need to let it out . ”
While the two soldiers were whispering to each other, the intruder had walked past them, onto the stairs .
Lin Qiao went up to the second floor, straight into the office of the factory . She saw that the level-six man and a level-five man were standing by the window, looking outside . The cold wind did not seem to affect them .
The others were all sitting on the ground while holding their guns, huddling against the wall or the table legs . The weather was so cold that they didn’t want to move at all . Even stretching their legs would make them feel cold .
Most of them were huddling together to keep each other warm .
Lin Qiao avoided the people on the ground as she walked to the level-six man and suddenly slapped on his back .
She showed her face the moment she touched her body .
Puff! Black fire burst from her palm .
“Ah…” Qi Hanhui uttered a shrill scream, causing everyone else to wake up . They raised their heads to look at Qi Hanhui, only to see him shrink and disappear in a black fire .
His assistant automatically made a step backward . He was so shocked that he didn’t manage to make any other reaction .
“Who are you?” Everyone else saw a woman standing where Qi Hanhui was . It was that strange woman who just attacked their Deputy Chief .
Bang! Bang! Bang! Realizing what just happened, those people immediately fired at Lin Qiao .
At that moment, Qi Hanhui fell to the ground, wrapped in the black fire . After the scream, he made no other sounds .
As he fell, the black fire spread from his body, along the wall and the floor .
When the people fired their weapons, Lin Qiao flashed across the air to dodge the bullets . Meanwhile, she raised a hand to boost the fire . Within a blink, the entire office was swallowed by the dark fire .
As the strongest man in the room, Qi Hanhui was killed within a blink of an eye . The people who reacted fast evacuated from the office, trying their best to run .
“Run! Run! Run! Scatter and run!” The people who ran out of the office screamed in a panic while rushing at the cars that were parked before the building .
Lin Qiao stood by the window and swung an arm . Following her movement, the dark fire surged out of the window and twisted in the air like a black snake, then dived at the cars .
Under Lin Qiao’s control, the fire split into a few smaller streams and avoided the cars to land on those people .
Puff…
“Ahhhhh!”
The fire exploded and wrapped those people up once it touched them . Except for one shrill screech, no sounds could be heard from those people .
Before long, the factory was shrouded by the dark fire . The zombies which were crowding by the gate ran away in all directions when Lin Qiao showed up in the office .
Lin Qiao turned and glanced at the people who were still alive . They had split into a few groups and fled in different directions . She flashed across the air, and then a few figures showed up by her sides .
“There, there, and there… split up and go . Do not miss any one of them,” Lin Qiao pointed at three directions for them, then moved toward Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying .
Three people had run toward the two girls; they were all commoners . Lin Qiao wondered what Lin Wenwen would do .
