Lin Qiao woke up the others with the lake water, then told Chen Yuting and his people about what Lu Changfeng and Lu Ting did. Upon hearing that, Chen Yuting was angry as well.
"That woman had always been selfish! But, I didn't think that she would cast greedy eyes on your vehicle."
Lin Qiao sat aside silently, drinking a cup of water.
"She wanted to abandon us. Did she want you to vent your anger on us after finding out that she stole the vehicle?" A man beside Chen Yuting said.
Lin Feng nodded and said, "If they really stole the car, we wouldn't let you get away easily."
Chen Yuting and his people stayed silent.
Lin Qiao stood up and walked to them, "Actually, I knew that she didn't really believe me this morning. Later on, after I took out the vehicle, she still didn't believe me. So, I've kept an eye on her all the way."
While speaking, she returned to the bar, then glanced at her watch. It was two o'clock in the morning.
"Forget it! They've already been taken care of anyway. So now, we can have some sleep without worrying. You should go find a place to rest. We'll continue on the way after dawn."
She didn't worry that Chen Yuting and the others growing evil intentions like Lu Changfeng and her sister, because she had walked past each of them and read their minds. They were shocked by what Lu Ting and Lu Changfeng did, but had no other thoughts.
Lin Feng and the others on his side surely knew that Lin Qiao wouldn't let those people do anything bad, so they had no worries. However, they were indeed concerned about what strange type of energy put them in sleep.
At dawn, they got up and made some simple food. The breakfast was still a potful of congee with pork.
Lin Wenwen's space was airless. It was good for keeping food fresh, but didn't allow her to bring people in.
When Lin Qiao entered her space and saw the things stored in the third small space, she understood why Chen Yuting and his people cared so much about Lu Ting. Those people didn't show their concern for her, but their eyes were always on her, intentionally or not.
This time, after hearing that Lin Qiao had killed Lu Ting, they all had strong feelings. However, none of them said anything.
After all, stored in Lu Ting's space were a few tanks of gasoline!
Gasoline was very scarce after the apocalypse. No wonder those people cared so much about her.
Lin Qiao had only used one tank of the total gasoline that she had, and the rest three tanks were still untouched. But now, she had a few more tanks. That was an unexpected harvest.
She found that both the second and the third small spaces were airless before merging into her space. But after the merger, these two small spaces were connected with her space and both filled with air.
Lin Qiao looked around in Lu Ting's space. Except for the gasoline, she also found some women's supplies, but nothing else. This space was small, even smaller than the first small space. It was only a little bigger than a bathroom.
So, the few tanks of gasoline filled it up almost completely.
Lin Qiao walked out, prepared to exit her space. But suddenly, a fluffy creature got close to her.
She lowered her head and found that it was the gray rabbit.
The rabbit had grown big in her space and become fatter! That was reasonable though, as it was feeding on the grasses, strawberries, and vegetables in Lin Qiao's space!
The rabbit rarely approached Lin Qiao. It only ran back to her when Wu Yueling tried to take it away.
Lin Qiao bent over, then picked the rabbit up and asked, "What? Why did you come to me? You're not missing the little one, are you?"
Speaking of the little one, she wondered if her father had discovered Yang Chao's plan. As Lin Qiao thought, that man named Yang Chao was not a good guy. He wanted to hurt Wu Chengyue, and Lin Qiao was fine with that. However, he actually planned to do it by harming Wu Yueling. Because of that, Lin Qiao considered him as an evil man.
Besides, based on the fact that he had connived with Lu Tianyu to try biting a chunk of flesh out of Wu Chengyue, Lin Qiao could tell that he liked to play dirty tricks.
In a civilian area in the outskirt of Sea City Base, inside a room...
The robber leader who escaped from Lin Qiao was wearing a grim look and saying coldly to the other man in the room, "Your leader lied! Killing Hades Base leader's family? Killing Yuan Tianxing? Those were all lies! I lost eleven brothers! You go and tell your leader to pay me back with his life!"
The other man was just a level-six superpowered being, yet he had no fear of the level-seven robber leader. With a faint smile, he responded, "Tang He, calm down! We didn't think that the mission would cost all of your brothers' lives. After all, our boss chose to work with you because he believed in your capabilities, isn't that right? Besides, we can't get any benefits by entrapping you, can we?"
The robber leader who was called Tang He radiated his vibe and made the air pressure around him low."Then, why didn't you tell me that there was a level-six zombie in that area? And that it's a space-powered one! If I knew that, I wouldn't let it kill all my brothers, " said Tang He, his voice revealing ferocity.
The other man shook his head and said, "We honestly didn't know about that! Besides, the whereabouts of level-six zombies are never certain! They're so rarely seen. And, you're a level-seven powerful being. Even if you encountered a zombie king, you would be able to kill it, right?"
Tang He looked at him and stayed silent for a few seconds, then said, "It has a space. It can enter the space at any moment it wants. Go ask your leader to try and kill a zombie queen which can disappear at any time. And, it's not just a zombie king or queen."
If he were right, the strong pressure that he sensed before was from a zombie dominator. If that were true, he really should have sent some people to scout that area first.
The energy contained in the nucleus of a zombie dominator was rich enough to send a level-seven superpowered human being straight to level-eight! However, zombie dominators were extremely dangerous. A raging zombie king or queen was able to gather about six-thousand ordinary zombies, but no one knew how many could a zombie dominator summon. That number was probably over ten or twenty thousand.
If the leaders of the few large bases learned that a zombie dominator existed in that area, a stir would be caused.
The other men clearly didn't get the point of the latter part of Tang He's words, but only heard the part about a space-powered zombie.
"Space-powered zombies have always been rare. If you bring back its nucleus, you might be able to trade something even better with it, " the man looked at Tang He and said with glowing eyes.
Tang He snorted and said, "To get its nucleus, you need to be able to kill it with one move. Otherwise, it might hide in its space forever. What will you do about it then?"
