In the room, Green Mountain Base people were talking about how to get close to Lin Qiao and her people.

“Earlier on, you said that if only we can catch a talking zombie and study it… You’re not asking us to be friends with them for that purpose, are you?” Lei Cheng looked at him and said.

“I did have that thought in my mind. But later on, I felt that it would be inappropriate, as they never offended us. Em… So, about studying talking zombies, I think we should just wait,” Lan Lu put a hand on his chin while saying.

The others eyed him with a weird look.

“Oh my! Boss, you’re not possessed by some other soul, are you? You are actually not interested in such kind of weird thing anymore! Don’t you like to study in these strange things the most?” said another man in the room.

“I do want to study them, but it has to be within my reach. Do you want me to attack them while we know nothing about them? What if they launch a strong counterstrike? In that case, our future relationship would be ruined!” Lan Lu gave him a glare.

“Not even a level-eight zombie can beat you, right? Well… alright, you might still be a little weaker than a level-eight…” That man changed his words.

“Hehe, not just a little! Our Boss has spirit power, so he only has a strong brain! Level-eight zombies are no joke! Actually, are there really level-eight zombies in the world? Those few zombies that we met in Hangzhou should be new in level-seven, right?” Zheng Hao laughed and said.

“They have three level-seven zombies, and that’s already impressive. For zombies, breaking into level-seven from level-six is never easy. None of the zombies in our base have managed to enter level-seven yet. That base is powerful. We need to stay cautious,” said Lei Cheng blandly. His comely face wore no expression.

They mentioned the zombies in their base very naturally. Clearly, they hadn’t been seeing them as aliens. Perhaps, being a zombie was only another way for a human to survive in their eyes.

“They’re surely powerful! That’s why I told you to visit them and feel their attitude first. If you can’t do that, I’ll make a trip to Hangzhou myself after I finish studying the antidote that Huaxia developed. Oh, haven’t we located the zombie in Huaxia City yet?” Lan Lu glanced at the others and asked.

Lei Cheng shook his head and said, “No. Erlei didn’t find it either.”

“Even the dog can’t sense him. I guess we can only ask another zombie to look for this zombie. Maybe you should find a way to bring one of them in from the outside. Zombies can sense zombies. That might be how we can find him,” Lan Lu thought for a moment and said.

“Okay, I’ll be on it,” Zheng Hao responded, then stood up and left.

At that moment, Lin Qiao was moving toward the research institute. Before arriving at the building, she abruptly stopped and landed on top of a building that was about a mile away from the institute, looking ahead with confusion.

Some people were already there! Who were they?

Lin Qiao paused shortly, then kept moving forward, flashing across the darkness. After arriving at the building, she didn’t enter the underground floors directly, but chose a spot and waited there quietly.

Those people had managed to find the zombie, but seemed to have encountered some difficulties while coming out. Around 3 am, Lin Qiao finally saw them crawl out of a sewer on the other side of the building. She couldn’t tell how they got into that sewer.

However, she was surprised on seeing them carry out that frozen zombie. They actually did it! It seemed that those people did have some abilities. Lin Qiao wondered where they were from.

With curiosity, she approached that group of people.

Once she started moving, the alarm in the building suddenly went off. The shrill alarm echoed through the darkness of night. Soon, a series of noises could be heard from the building. Soldiers darted out of the building, searching around nervously. The entire area fell into chaos.

Before long, there came someone in charge. All the lights in the building were turned on, and the alarm never stopped.

Lin Qiao glanced back at the building, then turned around and quietly followed the group of people who were sneaking away.

Huaxia City people reacted speedily. Within less than one minute, all the entrances of the building had been sealed; the entire area was on its highest state of alert. A few figures flashed across the roof, and then, the entire base was sealed. All the entrances were locked; no one was allowed to leave the base.

The invisible Lin Qiao quietly avoided those people on the roof and stood on the roof edge, seeing the group of thieves hiding in a corner which was hard to notice.

Two people were carrying that frozen zombie. They both had ice power; while carrying the zombie, they had also been releasing their powers to keep the zombie frozen.

In just a few minutes, all the guests from other bases had heard about the news.

“Eh? It’s so noisy out there. What happened?” Wu Chengyue thought for a moment, then guessed, “Did someone… steal the antidote?”

“It’s possible!” Xiao Licheng said.

“So, it’s in the underground space of the institute. Someone else got it first! Go and find out where those people came from!” Lan Lu from Green Mountain Base crossed his arms before his chest while speaking.

“Okay,” Lei Cheng quickly left with Zheng Hao.

“Who are they? Who do they work for?” Hearing about the news, Lu Zhuofeng pulled a long face.

“We don’t know where they came from yet. Huaxia people have sealed the base, but those people haven’t been found yet,” said Xu Changmu.

“We’ll soon have visitors,” said Lu Zhuofeng.

As he said, the visitors showed up in no time. Huaxia Base people had started searching everywhere. In the building where the leaders of the other bases lived, they searched every single room. They claimed that some robbers had sneaked into the base, so they needed to search through the whole base for people’s safety.

Facing Wu Chengyue, Lu Zhuofeng, Lan Lu, and other base leaders, those Huaxia Base people politely but stoutly asked them to cooperate.

Meanwhile, Lin Qiao watched those thieves who had been hiding in that corner. She followed them closely, but couldn’t hear anything from them, because they only use eye-contact and hand gestures to communicate with each other.

They wore camouflage suits, head masks, and hats. They were all tall and strong. Their every move gave out a sense of bravery, but also cautiousness.

Even though the entire base was sealed off, those people weren’t panicking at all.
