Lin Qiao responded to Hou Guozhong with a smile, but didn't shake his hands. She was trying to let him know that she wasn't at the same level as him. He was a level-seven superpowered man indeed, but in her eyes, he was still in a lower place than her, not to mention the fact that he was only a Deputy Chief.
She responded to his greetings because she wanted to be polite. However, if she shook his hand, she would be lowering herself.
"Let's go and meet your Chief. Tell us about your current situation, " Wu Chengyue stood beside Lin Qiao as he nodded at Hou Guozhong smilingly. He didn't stop, but kept moving forward.
Hou Guozhong stepped aside and moved slightly backward, then followed by their side.
"The situation is bad. Our soldiers and superpowered fighters haven't rested for a month. The number of deaths isn't large yet, but many people are injured. The zombie attack never stopped. We don't know when they will retreat, " Hou Guozhong said with a serious look.
"You should know what caused the zombie attack, right? Haven't you figured out a way to solve the key problem yet?" Wu Chengyue asked curiously.
Everybody knew that the cause was among those zombies. The massive zombie attack wouldn't last so long unless those zombies were under instructions or controlled by someone. Without disabling the instructions or finding the controller, the massive zombie attack would never stop.
"Our Chief thinks that the massive zombie attack has something to do with the moving thunder clouds. We have sent people out to find out the truth about the thunder zone, but most of them died. One of our level-seven chairmen went to that area too. He hasn't come back yet, " Hou Guozhong sighed.
Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue glanced at each other.
It seemed that Huaxia Base people hadn't found out that the massive zombie attack was caused by Mo Yan.
"How do you know that it has something to do with the thunder zone?" Wu Chengyue glanced at Hou Guozhong and asked while walking.
While guiding them to the command room, Hou Guozhong answered that question."Because every time the thunder zone appeared, the zombie crowd tended to become agitated and attacked even more intensely than before. When the thunder clouds disappear, those zombies slow down a little, but they never fall back. The thunder zombie disappeared just now, so I think the zombie attack will ease a little bit at the moment."
While speaking, he guided Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue into the command building. In the building, they spent a short while walking into the command room. Only the two of them were allowed in, and they could each bring a subordinate.
Once they entered, the people standing in front of the large screen turned to look at them.
"You waited until now to come here on purpose, right?" The expressionless Si Kongchen said to Wu Chengyue once he saw him. The expressionless face and the mysterious eyes of his disabled the others from figuring out what he was thinking.
He blinked slightly when he saw Lin Qiao, who was by Wu Chengyue's side. The others were all surprised to see Lin Qiao as well.
Gao Haoyun, who was standing beside Si Kongchen, looked at Lin Qiao with great interest while saying to her with a meaningful smile, "Oh, this is Chief Wu's girlfriend, right?"
Hearing him, the others all looked at Wu Chengyue and Lin Qiao in a meaningful way.
Lin Qiao smiled with composure and stayed silent. A trace of ferocity escaped her eyes when she looked at Gao Haoyun.
Wu Chengyue frowned slightly and said with a faint smile, "I want very much to introduce her to you as my girlfriend, but she sadly didn't accept my proposal. But, I guess you have all known who she is. I don't really need to introduce her to you, do I?"
Hearing that, Gao Haoyun had his eyes shining. He grinned and said to Lin Qiao, "Really? In this case, I think we all have a chance, right? Beautiful lady, you might know my name already, but please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Gao Haoyun... I'm a level-eight ice power possessor."
He had heard about the Chief lady from All Being Base back when he was in Heilong Base, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Now, as he met her in person, he changed his mind.
He wasn't expecting the Chief lady from the new base to be so young and pretty. She looked only twenty-two or twenty-three years old. She had a beautiful oval face, a pair of shiny, green eyes, a delicate nose, and faintly colored, moist lips. Her long, black hair reached to her waist, hanging loosely around her slim neck and full breasts.
Underneath the black, solemn-looking military cape, she had a pair of long and straight legs. Her composed vibe made her seem cold and elegant. People couldn't even move their eyes away from her.
She had a stunning face, a perfect body, and a cold, inaccessible vibe. Facing such a beautiful woman, any man would want to rip off her suit and press her down to appreciate her crying, painful, pretty face.
Women were rare in the post-apocalyptic era. Which powerful man wouldn't want such a pretty woman who was standing as high as himself?
All the males on the scene were leaders or vice-leaders. Even if they had some dirty thoughts when they saw Lin Qiao, they wouldn't show it on their faces. However, through the hidden, thirsty looks in their eyes, Lin Qiao could read their minds.
Except for Wu Chengyue and Si Kongchen, Lin Qiao was able to read the minds of everyone on the scene. The look in Gao Haoyun's eyes was quite obvious. No one among the others was above level-seven, so Lin Qiao could sense their thoughts from their eyes with a simple eye-contact.
'Hehe, a bunch of horny men?, ' Lin Qiao thought.
Lu Tianyu had a much sexier body than Lin Qiao used to have. She was also prettier than Lin Qiao. But most importantly, she was younger.
Lin Qiao was aware that her current look would attract the eyes of men. Otherwise, the previous owner of that body wouldn't have survived for years after the apocalypse and manage to do all kinds of evil deeds in Sea City Base by relying on some man.
For that very reason, Lin Qiao kept a very low profile when she wasn't strong enough. Now, she had shown her face in the world of men, but that didn't mean she planned to let herself become their target.
With a small smile, she looked at Gao Haoyun. Before she said anything, another man's voice was heard.
"Chief Lu, I didn't know that you were so young. We thought that you'd be a thirty-years-old old woman like Netherworld Fire. You are a Chief after all!" Hu Zhiyong, one of the chairmen of Hu Zhiyong, fixed his eyes on Lin Qiao and said to her with a grin.
Lin Qiao was only thirty years old, but he called her 'an old woman'!
"Don't say that! Netherworld Fire was over thirty, but her body was maintained in good shape. Sadly, those people from Earth Dragon Base and Hidden Cloud City Base made her kill herself. She was a pretty lady no matter what, " said Liu Zhinan regretfully.
Listening to those men, the smile on Wu Chengyue's face grew fainter and fainter. He slowly widened his crescent-like eyes, which were now glowing with a cold light.
Those men fixed their disgusting, evil eyes on the zombie lady, and in addition to that, they compared her to a dead person.
That aroused a trace of anger in Wu Chengyue's heart.
