Chapter 37: The Zombie Which Jumped into the Water

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_

With this thought, Lin Qiao immediately turned around, squatting down and looking straight at Wu Yueling. She pointed at her and then at the area with the furniture, signaling her to go there alone. After that, she pointed at herself and then at Xie Dong, who had turned into a zombie and was now floating on the lake surface.

After that, she pointed at the sky.

She made a series of gestures as she tried to tell Wu Yueling to go and stay in that area by herself and not go anywhere else, while informing that she herself would deal with the thing on the water and send it outside the space.

Wu Yueling silently looked at her for a moment without letting her know if she had understood her meaning or not. The child didn’t go to that area as instructed, but remained standing in front of her, looking at her in the eyes.

Lin Qiao sighed, unable sense the kid’s thoughts at the moment. Once this child had calmed down, she could barely read her mind.

Seeing Wu Yueling looking at her without giving any response, Lin Qiao turned around and glanced at Xie Dong, who was still floating on the water surface. Then, she stood up and put her hands on the little one’s shoulders, turning her body back to the direction of the bed and pushing her a few steps forward.

With that, Wu Yueling began to walk forward, although she would turn back to glance at Lin Qiao with every other step before continuing to walk again.

After seeing that Wu Yueling was finally moving forward, Lin Qiao turned around and walked toward the lake surface. She carefully observed Xie Dong’s body for a moment and then sniffed at it.

Xie Dong was floating face-down on the water. Lin Qiao couldn’t see his face, but she sensed that both his vibe and scent had changed. His scent wasn’t the same as when he was still a human being, neither was it like the scent that he had earlier on when he suddenly turned into a zombie before jumping into the water.

She felt that Xie Dong’s scent was a little weird.

His human scent was gone, and his zombie scent was weak. At the moment, Lin Qiao couldn’t figure out what Xie Dong had become.

She put her feet into the water and slowly approached him. He wasn’t floating too far from the lakeside, merely six or seven meters away. However, she hadn’t gone this far into the lake before, so she seemed to be extra careful.

By the time she was three meters away from the lakeside, the water had already reached her chest. She immediately pushed her feet against the lake bottom and began swimming, so she could move faster through the lake.

When she came to Xie Dong’s side, she still detected no change in him. After spending a moment in thinking, she suddenly felt a little silly!

She didn’t know when she had become so timid. She was a zombie anyway. Was she afraid that this thing might bite her? Everything aside, with his current strength, he might not be able to bite her even if he wanted to!

Once she thought of this, Lin Qiao boldly and confidently reached out a hand toward the guy. She turned him over, seized the collar at the back of his neck with one hand, and then swam to the lakeside while dragging him behind her.

After swimming ashore, she dragged Xie Dong out of the water and threw him into a clearing by the lake. Now, she could finally see his face clearly.

His face, which had been twisted and covered in veins, had actually become normal again. However, the color of his face was pale white and bluish, like the color of normal zombies.

His mouth wasn’t cracked, neither was his nose crooked. With his eyes closed, he looked like a normal dead person, and his body seemed to show no sign of turning into a zombie.

Lin Qiao squatted beside him, examining his face over and over again as she said to herself,?‘Average-looking. I give him five out of ten.’

After that, she reached out a hand and gripped his maxillary joints, squeezing them hard. His’s mouth opened, exposing his teeth. As she expected, his even teeth had already turned sharp.

Lin Qiao sniffed him and found that he didn’t have the stench that zombies were supposed to have in his mouth. Letting go of his mouth, Lin Qiao took a look at his hands. His fingernails hadn’t grown out, but his finger bones had already mutated, and were bent like hooks.

She then laid her eyes on his wounds. Those festering wounds now had a pale blue color, which was obviously an effect of the zombie virus.

As she expected, he really had become a zombie!

After checking for a while, Lin Qiao concluded that Xie Dong had indeed become a zombie. Then, she began considering how to deal with him next.

Should she throw him out? He might wake up as a zombie and get shot in the head by human beings, or be torn up by higher level zombies. Alternatively, he might loiter by himself, evolve into a high-level zombie later on, and then be taken out by human beings!

Should she directly stab her claws into his head and then go out, dig a hole, and bury him to let him rest in peace?

Lin Qiao felt that burying him was the best option!

With this thought, she closed her eyes and looked outside, then realized that this wouldn’t work. That was because she saw the level-five zombie still staying where it was before, seemingly waiting for her to come out.

Unless she entered that ‘traveling ghost’ state again, she wouldn’t be able to leave this place without leaving her space.

She focussed on thinking about that magical state which she had entered earlier on and tried to remember how she had felt back then.

She remembered that her eyes were closed at that time and she was focused on the outside situation the whole time. She had concentrated intensively and thought about how she could make herself invisible and dive down to save Xie Dong. Soon after that, she had somehow entered that half asleep and half awake, ‘traveling ghost’ state.

As she could remember, she had been allowed to run all the way to the strawberry field without leaving the space when she was in a dream last time. Why did she have to be dreaming to achieve that? On the other hand, why did she need to enter that ‘traveling ghost’ state in order to move in the outside world without leaving her space when she wasn’t dreaming?

Couldn’t she do that just once while she was awake? Why was this space being so difficult?

Lin Qiao felt that she needed more time to explore the functions of this space. But for now, how could she throw Xie Dong out of her space?

Outside, the zombie leader was waiting covetously. Perhaps, it would pounce upon her as soon as she showed up.

She had noticed that she was able to easily throw lifeless things inside or out of her space, but couldn’t do the same with human beings or zombies. Instead, she could only bring them in or out along with herself.

While she was squatting beside Xie Dong and struggling, his still-water-like peaceful vibe suddenly stirred up. Lin Qiao sensed the change, so she immediately stood up and took a few steps backward.

In the next moment, she saw him lying on the ground, moving his eyelids and then opening his eyes.

His eyeballs weren’t pale gray or as dark as Lin Qiao’s black eyes which had no white parts. Instead, they were like a pair of normal human eyes, with black pupils and a normal white sclera.

However, his pupils weren’t of the same shape as those of normal human beings. Those pupils weren’t round, but were vertical.

None of this mattered except the fact that after he opened his eyes, he confusedly looked at the leaden sky in Lin Qiao’s space, blinking and then sitting up while fixing his alert eyes on Lin Qiao.

Seeing this, Lin Qiao was quite confused.?‘Damn, what’s happening now? Why is this zombie staring at me so alertly?’

Before she could figure it out, Xie Dong’s expression changed again. His eyes sparkled, then the look in his eyes actually calmed down bit by bit while the vigilance in his eyes disappeared.

Lin Qiao confusedly looked at him. Zombie? He didn’t look like one! Human being? He didn’t look like one of those either!

What on earth had this man become?

While she was guessing what exactly he had turned into, Xie Dong moved his lips.

“Eh… Oh…”

Lin Qiao was again confused. She couldn’t understand the meaning behind his words at all! However, she did sense his thoughts!

He had said,?‘So hungry!’
