"What happened? Why did you want to see me so late at night?" Lin Wenwen ran into Lin Qiao's office and asked before Shen Yujen left.
Lin Qiao watched Shen Yujen leave and close the door, then said to Lin Wenwen, "Have any strange images popped up in your mind lately?"
"Strange image? Like what? What's it about?" Lin Wenwen looked at Lin Qiao and said with confusion.
"Just now, I suddenly had a very bad feeling. I can't explain it... I feel that something is going to happen. That's why I asked you if you saw anything with your new power, " said Lin Qiao to Lin Wenwen uncertainly.
That feeling was gone already. However, it made Lin Qiao feel uneasy, although she didn't know why.
The less she knew, the more worried she was.
Lin Wenwen spent a few seconds looking at Lin Qiao in the eyes, then shook her head and said, "No. Nothing... I haven't seen anything about you since the image of you giving birth."
Lin Qiao thought for a moment, then said, "Did you see anything about anyone else?"
Lin Wenwen thought briefly, then shook her head again.
Lin Qiao sighed and said, "Alright. Go back to your room."
Lin Wenwen spent a few more seconds looking at her, then nodded as she stood up and left.
That night, a stream of gas escaped the earth, containing all sorts of toxicities.
All normal plants that were touched by the gas withered and died; the animals that inhaled the gas fell to the ground and twitched, then froze. Their eyes turned grey, and in a few seconds, the bodies of those animals were drained of moisture.
The mutated plants started growing thrivingly while the mutated animals had their eyes turning red as they became insanely violent and excited.
"Roar!"
Human beings were affected as well.
In a dorm room in All Beings Base, none of the four commoners who lived there had gotten up, even though the day had broken long ago.
The entire floor was quiet too, with no sound to be heard.
"Eh? What's happening?" The level-three squad leader was in the guard post downstairs in that dorm building with one of his subordinates. They were on duty last night. It was already seven in the morning. Normally, many people should have left the dorm by that time.
"Bing, wake up! The canteen has opened. Go and get us some breakfast. You have to be quick, or you'll get nothing!" The squad leader glanced at the quiet dorm building and felt a little strange about it. Soon, he forgot about that, because the canteen should have opened at that time.
He turned and kicked his subordinate, who was lying asleep on the table, as he said. However, his subordinate made no response to that kick.
"Bing? Bing! Wake up!" The squad leader thought that Bing was sleeping too deeply. As the latter didn't wake up, he called him again and kicked on his chair.
As a result, Bing fell off the chair and thudded against the ground. After that, he lay there motionlessly, not even changing his posture.
That weird scene made the squad leader shiver slightly. He looked at Bing as he slowly approached him, then put a finger under his nose to feel his breath.
Right at that moment, the twenty-year-old young man suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were purely black.
"Roar..." Springing up from the ground, he reached out both hands, his fingers crooked. He pressed the squad leader down before the latter could even react, then widely opened his mouth to bite the latter. His mouth cracked from ear to ear, his face looking ferocious.
"Damn it!" The squad leader gave a start but reacted in time. Before Bing's teeth could sink into his body, his skin turned into hard stone.
Crack... Bing's teeth were cracked.
The squad leader turned the skin of his entire body into stone, then quickly gripped Bing's neck and punched his head with his stone fist.
Thud! A half of Bing's head was dented by the first punch.
Thud! The second punch crushed his head.
A level-three earth-powered man might not be super powerful, but was strong enough to kill a new zombie.
The man pushed aside Bing's body, then quickly got up from the ground and lay his upper body on the table while pressing a button of the interphone.
"Oi, this is the guard post in District C. A guard here just turned into a zombie! Be careful, everyone!"
At that moment, a scream was heard from the dorm building.
"Ah... Help! Help! Zombie!" It was a woman.
The squad leader wore the interphone on his coat, then quickly picked up the rifle in the guardhouse and rushed toward where the scream came from.
Bang! Soon after that, a window on the other side of the building suddenly opened and someone jumped out of that window.
"Roar..." That man landed on the ground and roared at the squad leader before charging at him.
He was fast, running like a human being. Judging by his moving speed, he was a level-two zombie.
Bang! The squad leader immediately raised the rifle and shot at the zombie's head.
The zombie tilted his head to dodge the bullet, then raised his speed, running at the squad leader. From seven or eight meters away, he leaped high up into the sky, then pounced on the squad leader.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The squad leader was a little nervous as the zombie dodged his first bullet very easily. He raised his gun and shot three bullets at the zombie while it was still in the air.
Thud! This time, the zombie fell from the air and thudded on the ground like a piece of meat.
The squad leader spent a few seconds looking at the dead zombie, then quickly turned and kept moving toward the screaming woman.
At that moment, the rat crowd in Fuyang District was stirred, and some rats started attacking the other rats crazily. Their eyes turned red and faces were twisted, their hair standing straight up.
Squeak... The other rats weren't prepared for that. They were startled at first, then ended up being scared away by the violent vibe coming from those crazy rats.
