Chapter 179: It Should Be Memory Loss

Translator: Law  Editor: Hitesh_

Xie Dong looked at Lin Qiao with silent confusion.  ‘What does she mean? Another individual came back to life in Lu Tianyu’s body? Reincarnation? Soul rebirth? Or what?’

Judging by how Xie Dong felt about Lin Qiao, she was indeed different from the woman who was hated by everyone else. However, what she told him was way too unbelievable. A zombie with life memories like him still sounded reasonable, but a zombie with two people’s memories? Did that mean that the two people’s memories had merged together?

‘Do you have Lu Tianyu’s memories?’ —Xie Dong wrote on the clipboard, and Lin Qiao nodded in response. Lu Tianyu’s memories were still disordered, but they did exist in her mind.

Xie Dong couldn’t understand her condition. He didn’t want to believe her, but from many aspects, she had proven it to him.

‘But it’s absolutely unimaginable! Can such a thing really happen?’

‘Well, the apocalypse happened, animals and plants mutated, over seventy percent of people in the world have become zombies or died, and superpowered human beings have emerged. Is anything still impossible?’

Xie Dong thought quickly and soon accepted what Lin Qiao said.

She was Lin Qiao, not Lu Tianyu. However, she had borrowed Lu Tianyu’s body and name.

Soon, he wrote down another question— ‘Since you’ve found your family, why didn’t you tell them your name?’

Lin Qiao looked at him and blinked once before taking over the clipboard, erasing his question, and writing—’ Have you heard about the Hades Base?’

Seeing the name of the Hades Base, Xie Dong nodded.

Of course, he knew about it. It was one of the eight bases of human survivors in the country. The other seven were the Sea City Base in the East, Huaxia Base in the middle, Dark Dragon Base in Northeast, Mongols Base in Inner Mongolia, Hidden Cloud Base in Tibet, Sky Fire Base built by the people from Yunnan and Sichuan, and the Earth Dragon Base in the South.

As Xie Dong nodded, Lin Qiao continued writing— ‘Do you know Netherworld Fire, the leader of the Hades Base?’

Xie Dong nodded again. Netherworld Fire was the leader of one of the two bases in South China, which was something he surely knew about. Earlier on, Lin Qiao told him that she would head South to find some people, so he now guessed that she found her family from the Hades Base.

‘She’s pretty fast! She found her family and brought them back within just a week,’he thought.

‘The Hades Base was broken not long ago. There’s no Hades Base anymore. They were on the run. They heard that their leader was forced to blow herself up’ —Lin Qiao wrote.

Xie Dong didn’t know that the Hades Base had already been conquered by the Earth Dragon Base. Reading Lin Qiao’s words, he stared at her and paused for a few seconds in shock.

“Roar?”

‘Really?’ He couldn’t help but roared to ask. Lin Qiao nodded and wrote—’I guess you don’t know who they are yet.’

Then, she told him about Lin Feng, Yuan Tianxing, and the others. She told him that Lin Feng and the others of the Lin Family were the relatives of the leader of the Hades Base, and that Yuan Tianxing was the Deputy Chief of that base.

At last, she wrote down a few large letters to show him— ‘Netherworld Fire’s real name was also Lin Qiao.’

At that point, Qiu Lili and Junjun had come close to them. When they were communicating through writing, they ran over to read their notes because they were too curious. Reading the last few words written by Lin Qiao, the three of them were all stunned.

Junjun looked at Lin Qiao while thinking, ‘According to her, Chief Netherworld Fire was also named Lin Qiao, and their families are the same. This means, they are the same person?’

‘Eh…? Are you Netherworld Fire? The base leader?’ Junjun pointed at Lin Qiao with surprise and asked internally. Qiu Lili and Xie Dong had been looking at her with the same look.

However, Lin Qiao shook her head and wrote —’They are my relatives, but I don’t remember anything that happened in the past five years. I only remember things before the apocalypse. I don’t know why or how I became like this.’

The other three gazed at her with confusion. What did she mean? Did she lose her memories?

‘I think I’ve lost my memories,’ Lin Qiao continued writing, ‘I feel that the Lin Qiao from the Hades Base was a different person. So, if I have time, I want to go to the South again.’

The three slowly processed what she had said. They now understood that Lin Qiao the zombie was from the old world. She woke up to find that she had become a zombie, and that the whole world had changed. But still, she adapted to this world and her broken body.

She had a strong mind, because of which, she didn’t waste too much time and headed South directly to find her family. At first, she didn’t even know if her relatives were still alive or not! She woke up five years after the apocalypse and found that the whole world was different. She knew that billions of people had died, but still confirmedly tried looking for her family.

The other three zombies didn’t understand what made her so determined. What if she couldn’t find her family? What if her family had become zombies or died in zombies’ mouths?

Anyway, she had found her relatives now. But before that, how confused had she been?

After a lot of thinking, the three zombies weren’t all feeling low. Xie Dong was doing better than the other two, as his experience as a special forces soldier allowed him to adjust his emotions quickly.

Unlike him, the two female zombies became a little gloomy. They used to be sentimental when they were human beings, and that stayed in their personalities even after they became zombies.

Sensing their mood swings, Lin Qiao suddenly wanted to laugh. ‘Don’t be like this,’ she wrote. ‘I’ve found my family, haven’t I?’

Qiu Lili and Junjun looked at her. ‘What if you didn’t find them? Would you keep looking?’ Qiu Lili asked.

Lin Qiao nodded at the two of them. She had to keep looking, or she would have no meaning in her life as a zombie.

Xie Dong rested his chin on his palm and thought for a moment.

‘She has found her family, but also discovered her another self. And…the other Lin Qiao is dead. So…did her soul go directly into Lu Tianyu’s body after she blew herself up?’

‘Did she lose a part of her memory?’

‘That might be true, or why would she have the same name and family as Netherworld Fire?’

‘No wonder she introduced herself to the group of human being as Lu Tianyu. She died, then came back to life in a zombie’s body, but has lost five years of memories. If she told those people that she was Lin Qiao, they might actually have beaten her!’

‘After all, if someone…no, some zombie came to a group of people and told them that he or she is the relative of theirs who died not long ago…no normal person would believe that.’

Qiu Lili didn’t think as much as Xie Dong did and only asked two questions.

“Ahhyaya…”

‘How long will we stay here? When will you go to the South?’
