Chapter 735
After being tied up, the mushroom started hopping and struggling, as if the vine was making it very uncomfortable . Meanwhile, Lin Qiao held the other end of the vine leisurely and watched it hop .

That mushroom was able to spread poisonous powder and drill into the ground; moreover, it was quite smart! It would become very useful if it were trained well .
For that purpose, Lin Qiao didn’t dig out its energy nucleus .
She dragged the vine and brought the mushroom to her space, then threw it into the woods .
The mushroom looked a little confused as it was thrown into a strange place . At first, it stayed where it was motionlessly for a few seconds, then started turning its mushroom cap from left to right, seemingly observing the surrounding environment .
Lin Qiao untied the mushroom and withdrew the vine . Once that happened, the mushroom ran away without leaving a trace . Lin Qiao didn’t move, but crossed her arms before her chest and waited patiently . In less than two minutes, she saw the mushroom run back from another direction .
The mushroom rushed out of the woods and stopped abruptly at a distance away from Lin Qiao, then turned and ran toward the other side .
Right at that moment, a black figure darted out from the other side of the woods, chasing behind the mushroom .
Without needing to look at that black creature, Lin Qiao knew that it was Black who had woken up . Clearly, the snake had realized that it was poisoned by the mushroom just now . It darted over with anger at the sight of the mushroom .
The mushroom wanted very much to hide underground . However, the soil in the space wasn’t deep enough . It was able to bury its roots, but couldn’t hide its entire body in the earth .

The mushroom was so confused, but the others couldn’t tell how it felt . With no better choices, the mushroom ran as fast it could . But, it somehow ran back to the terrifying two-footed creature . Without hesitation, it turned and ran in another direction, but then a giant worm started chasing behind it .
“Since you like running so much, Black will be running with you,” Lin Qiao suddenly showed up on a tree in front of the mushroom, then lowered her head and said a few words to it before disappearing .
After coming out of the space, Lin Qiao checked her own location, then moved toward Xie Dong and the others .
She came out of the forest and stood by the roadside as she whistled . Soon, Xie Dong, Jingyan, Qiu Lili, and some others showed up around her .
“How’s it going? What was it that you chased all over the hill? Did you capture it?” Qiu Lili floated above a small tree and asked with curiosity .
“It was a running mushroom?” said Lin Qiao .
“A mushroom? What? How can it be a mushroom?” Qiu Lili asked with surprise .
Xie Dong, Lu Tianyi, and the others all wore a surprised look as well .
“What can be normal in this post-apocalyptic era?” Lin Qiao rolled her eyes .

The others found her words reasonable .
Lin Qiao threw out the dead boar and said, “I only got this one . It’s not enough for all of us . Let’s try to find some more food . ”
“I want to know what you did to that running mushroom,” Qiu Lili moved closer to Lin Qiao, then tilted her head and asked . With that, her long ponytails dropped to the ground .
“Oh, I didn’t kill it, but put it into the space . I plan to train it . It’ll become useful in the future,” said Lin Qiao .
“Ah, you have all sorts of creatures in your space now . Zombies, mutated beasts… and now you have a mutated plant… hehe,” Qiu Lili tittered .
Lin Qiao dug out the boar’s energy nucleus and then began skinning the boar . The boar was only at level-four, yet it was chasing behind the mushroom . The mushroom was clearly playing with it, yet it didn’t know .
That mushroom was at level-six .
Lin Qiao skinned the boar quickly and neatly, then cut off one of its trotters for herself . While slicing and eating the trotter, she spread her sensations to search for other energy sources in the surrounding . She was actually looking for other mutated animals or plants .
A short while later, she pointed in one direction and said, “Something is on that mountain, as high-leveled as the mushroom . The mutated creatures are upgrading speedily now . ”

She had seen quite some level-six mutated plants and animals recently . Zombies had reached level-eight so far . Mo Yan was the level-eight zombie discovered . A considerable number of level-seven zombies had emerged, and a few humans had entered level-eight as well .
A new phase seemed to have begun .
“Hm, I too have sensed faint energy from there,” Qiu Lili nodded .
They waited a short while for the others to bring back their harvests . That group of human-like zombies skinned and ate those mutated animals that they caught, then headed toward the mountain that Lin Qiao showed Qiu Lili just now .
The mountain was actually a little far from where they were, at least thirty miles away .
Just as Lin Qiao led her team to the mountain and killed a level-six, giant mutated goat, another group of people arrived at West Lake District, entering the area where Lin Qiao’s zombies gathered .
Those were tens of superpowered people, at level two and three, led by Li Honglin, a level-three fire power possessor .
Li Honglin was average-looking and scheming . He didn’t have a good observation ability, and he cared about himself very much; he only cared about himself, actually .
Back in Hades Base, Wang Jian’s men always got the news faster than the others . Li Honglin and his people could easily attain the information they needed by paying attention to Wang Jian and his men .
“Look! There are so many zombies in front of us! This huge crowd has blocked our way . We have no choice but to go through this zombie crowd if we want to move across this area . ” A man beside Li Honglin was observing the area through a telescope .
Through the telescope, he saw nothing but zombies . The zombie crowd seemed to have no end .
“What do you mean by so many? Give us a rough number . ” Li Honglin couldn’t sense the number of those zombies as they were all ordinary zombies . So, he asked the man with the telescope .
The man handed him the telescope while saying, “It means a lot of them . See for yourself!”
Li Honglin took over the telescope and looked through it, only to see countless zombies crowding together . He turned from left to the right, but still failed to see the edge of the zombie crowd .
“This place isn’t a zombie city, is it? How come there’re so many zombies?” Li Honglin was a little surprised .
“You’re right! Now, if we want to take a detour, we might need to cover a long extra distance . Besides, we don’t know how big this crowd is, and where the edge is,” said the man beside him .
