Chapter 9: Enemy Suddenly Appeared

Translator: Law  Editor: Hitesh_

On the roof platform of the warehouse, a man who was over six feet tall and wearing camouflage military clothing stood on the edge, lifting his head and looking at the dark sky.

At this time, another tall man in camouflage military clothing walked up. Turning his head to look around, he walked toward the man standing on the platform.

“I knew you were here. I know you’re worried about Ling Ling, but you haven’t rested for days. You should go down and rest for a while. Don’t burn yourself out before you find her!” The tall man sighed and said.

“Long, I don’t even know if Ling Ling is still alive! How can I possibly sleep? It was all my fault. I was careless, and I actually let that woman take Ling Ling away.” Wu Chengyue’s handsome face had a gloomy look on it. His beautiful eyes were bloodshot and filled with anxiety, regret, pain, as well as an extremely strong desire to kill.

Xiao Yunlong patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t worry! The seed that Yue planted in Ling Ling’s body isn’t dead, which means she is still alive. We will try harder to find her, and we will get her back for sure.”

Wu Chengyue’s expression changed as a stony murderous intent shrouded his face. The veins stood out on his forehead one after another as he said through gritted teeth, “I will kill that woman! If anything happens to Ling Ling, I will rip that woman to pieces!”

In this apocalyptic world, horrors like rape and gang rape often happened to women. After all, women were too rare, and some men would always resort to taking women by force when they had no way to vent their desires. Besides, in this world, power was the absolute principle, as well as the only law of this world. People relied on their brute strength to speak for themselves here.

However, he was raped by a woman…

The more Wu Chengyue thought about this, the stronger his desire to kill became.

Nevertheless, he didn’t know that the woman he wanted to rip to pieces had already been eaten by zombies, and that another soul had taken over her body, coming back to life as a zombie.

“That woman won’t get far. As long as she is still in this city, we’ll find her,” said Xiao Yunlong.

At the same time, on the other side of the city, Lin Qiao was searching through the memories in her head while heading to the place where the little girl was hidden by the previous owner of the body.

Soon, she came upon a dilapidated cold storage facility. She put her face against the door to feel what was inside, but could sense nothing.

This cold storage was used for freezing meat. Due to the lack of electricity, it had been abandoned since the apocalyptic era began. However, this building was especially sturdy, such that those ordinary zombies wouldn’t be able to break through its thick iron door.

Furthermore, it was airtight. The compartments inside had all been opened and the inner space was not small, but Lin Qiao was still worried that the little girl might have already died from suffocation. After all, many days had passed since the latter was hidden there.

Standing in front of the cold storage, she looked at the door lock and knitted her zombie eyebrows together as she lowered her head and began to fumble in her own pockets. She went through all her pockets, but found no keys. So, how could she open the door?

What should she do? She couldn’t open the door without keys!

She became a little anxious as she made a few circles on the spot, ignoring the other zombies which were stumbling past.

These zombies looked very scary at night, but once one got used to their looks, one would find that there was nothing to be afraid of, especially when they weren’t dangerous to oneself anymore.

Lin Qiao made two circles, then looked at her dark claws, which held a cold luster, and back at the thick door. She wondered if she could force it open with her claws. Would she break her claws against the door?

No average person could open this door without a key, but, she wasn’t an average person anymore, was she?

She raised her hand and tried to insert the tips of her claws into the thin door slit, but they wouldn’t fit!

She scratched and scratched, twisting her fingers… Finally, she managed to catch the door seam with her claws, but was unable to put forth her strength.

After struggling for a while, she squatted on the ground, fretfully scratching her head with her claws in frustration.

What could she do? She couldn’t open the door, and the building didn’t have windows or any other openings.

Right at that moment, she suddenly sensed a message within her head.

“Here, this way! We must find the child before they do!”

This was a clear message, and its goal was definitive.

‘People are coming!’ Lin Qiao immediately stood up and darted into a dark room through an open door on the side, hiding in there.

Soon, she heard some voices.

“Has that woman been here?”

“I happened to see her walking this way. I can’t say for sure if she has hidden the kid here or not.”

“We’ve searched through so many places. Where the hell did the b*tch hide the child?”

“Has she killed the child?”

“No! I have received a message which said that the kid is not dead yet. Can’t you see Wu Chengyue is still trying to find her?”

“But…”

“No ‘buts’. Let’s first find out if any place in this area could hide a person.”

Lin Qiao hid in the darkness while staring at the three people with her dark eyes, which bore no resemblance to the eyes of normal people.

It was them, the three superpowered people who had gotten Lu Tianyu killed.

Lin Qiao watched the three people dodge the zombies which had been constantly approaching them. Meanwhile, they appeared to be looking for something.

She didn’t expect that these people would want the little girl as well, and she had no way to find out what they needed the little girl for. These three didn’t look like good people anyway.

They made her feel unsafe. She knew that any one of them was stronger than her, and that she would have no chance of beating any of them. That was the reason why she had hidden so quietly.

She watched the three get closer and closer to the cold storage where the kid was locked.

“Eh? This is a cold storage unit!” Liang Caiyan said while pointing at the cold storage that Lin Qiao had been standing in front of moments before.

With his eyes flashing, Lin Yong said, “This cold storage unit is perfect for hiding people. Zombies can’t break in.”

“Could that woman have hidden the child here?” Liu Hongshi asked.

The three exchanged a look, feeling that it was highly probable.

“Let’s get in there and find out,” said Lin Yong.

As he was speaking, he raised his palm, and a tongue of flame shot out of it a second later. He then turned his palm around and pressed the flame onto the door lock area.

Lin Qiao watched them quietly. The two relatively younger people stood with their backs to the door of the cold storage, facing the zombies outside. They killed every zombie that approached them in order to stop the other zombies from doing the same. Meanwhile, the middle-aged man behind them was doing something to the door lock.

A whole ten minutes had passed by. As these three people lingered in the area, they began to attract more and more zombies, which were now crowding toward them.

“Roar… Roar… Roar… Roar…” The zombies bared their teeth and wielded their claws as they pounced on the three, but ended up either being stabbed by Liang Caiyan’s sharp ice crystals, or having their heads blown off by Liu Hongshi’s steel cudgel.

However, as more and more zombies gathered in the area, the two gradually became overwhelmed. Just as they couldn’t help but intend to ask Lin Yong if it was done, the latter took a step backward.

On the thick door before him, the door lock was twisted and bent out of shape oddly, as if it had been melted at a high temperature.

Bang!

Lin Yong aimed and smashed a heavy punch at the twisted door lock. With that, the door cracked and a slit appeared.

Lin Qiao cursed silently in her head on seeing that the three had opened the door. She couldn’t let them take the child, because she had felt their evil intentions toward the child. The child might even die at their hands.

However, she was no match for them at the moment. What could she do?

Looking at the zombies that had surrounded the door of the cold storage, she suddenly had only one thought in her mind.

If only these zombies would charge savagely at the three! ‘Charge! All charge!’she shouted in her head.
