Chapter 160: Being Chased
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
Seeing that Lin Qiao was preparing to attack, the zombie leader thrust its legs against the ground, charging at her like a bolt of lightning.
Cling! Crack!
Lin Qiao watched the zombie rush toward her. When it attacked with its claws, she suddenly bent her knees and raised her claws, accurately and swiftly catching the pair of steel claws which were slashing toward her head.
Her claws weren’t made of steel, yet were stronger than the zombie’s steel claws.
After jamming the zombie’s claws, Lin Qiao pushed her feet against the ground and twisted her waist. Meanwhile, she pulled her arms sideward and dragged the zombie to the side.
When the zombie leader was thrown to the ground, Lin Qiao raised a foot and kicked it on the stomach.
Thud!
The zombie thudded against the building nearby and then fell to the ground.
After giving a kick, Lin Qiao sprung up and swiftly chased after it. Before the zombie realized what was happening, Lin Qiao had already rushed up and swung her claws at it.
This time, her claws landed right on its body.
Puff!
The zombie didn’t have enough time to cover its body with metal before suffering a series of wind blades created by Lin Qiao’s claws. By the time it managed to react, a few deep wounds were already left on its body.
The wind blades cut the zombie like sharp swords, creating straight wounds.
The zombie fell to the ground as a few smooth slashing wounds were added to its body. Thick and black blood gushed out of those wounds along with the one on its thigh, which was caused by Lin Qiao’s first attack.
“Roar… roar!” It struggled back up from the ground while making noises with its throat.?It looked at its wounds, which were soon covered by a layer of metal, and the bleeding was stopped.
Apparently, Lin Qiao’s attack had worked on it.
It was slower than her, which was why the latter managed to harm it quite easily.
The zombie alertly got up on all fours and raised its head to look at Lin Qiao, who was descending from the roof.
At the moment, this zombie leader with a relatively lower IQ was a little confused again. Lin Qiao was at a lower level, but why was she so strong? Its attacks had been completely ineffective on her; on the contrary, she managed to hurt it a few times in a row, and it wasn’t able to doge at all.
The zombie leader was agitated after suffering Lin Qiao’s attacks for a few times in a row, uttering a series of fierce roars.
“Roar! Roar!”
Lin Qiao quietly looked at it, but suddenly turned her head to stare at another direction, the look on her face changed. With some uncertainty, she tried to sense something from that direction.
As she was distracted, the zombie leader immediately charged at her.
Once it moved, Lin Qiao turned back and swiftly took a step backward. When the zombie was about a meter away from her, she abruptly turned her body and made a spin kick. Her foot neatly hit its side waist and sent it flying out.
Miles away in an industrial district where Lin Qiao had stared at earlier, a few figures were moving on the roof of a factory.?One of them was running at the front while three were following behind it. Judging by their movements, they all had superpowers.
Down on the ground, two vehicles were driving on the road behind them.?In the first car, a few people looked at the ones on the roof while chatting. “How can the boy be so nimble?”
“Who knows? He’s injured so badly, yet he’s still full of vigor. Look, he can still leap across roofs…Amazing!”
“Em, so what? I don’t think he can hang on for long.”
“True! Boss and the others are really slow! Is this fun?”
“Haha… Don’t you know Boss well enough? He’s just bored in the journey!”
“They’re bored indeed. How can three level-five superpowered men spend such a long while chasing after a level-four? They’ve been running for such a long time. I think it’s time for them to do something serious!”
“You should give them a shout and tell them to finish that boy as soon as possible. We’re arriving at the center of the town. I heard that there’s a zombie leader here. Tell them to save some strength for it.”
“Alright…Oi, Boss! Stop playing! Finish the boy off now! We’re arriving at our destination!” A man in the first car stuck his head out of the car window and yelled at the ones on the roof.
“Okay!” Soon, a man on the roof responded.
The man who was on the run had an angular face, seeming to be in his twenties. His clothes were ragged, stained by dark-red blood.?He looked messy and not so agile, but still, he was trying his best to run forward.
‘Almost there! Almost there!’?Xie Dong kept telling himself that while leaping forward without pausing.
“Stop running! You’re not gonna get away!” A man among the three behind him yelled.?While speaking, he suddenly sped up and turned into a shred of shadow to leap over Xie Dong’s head. He flipped in the air and landed before the latter.
The road was blocked, but Xie Dong didn’t stop right away. Instead, he rushed straight at the man.
As he swung his hands, flame quickly rose from his palms. The flame was thrown at that man before Xie Dong could touch him.
The man stood there and calmly raised a hand to bring up a tornado, which instantly blew Xie Dong’s flame away.
“How dare you try attacking me with your tiny little fire!” The man sneered scornfully.?At the moment, Xie Dong was three meters away from the man. Before he made another step forward, the man waved his hand away and sent him backward with a strong gust of wind.
On the other side, while fighting the zombie leader, Lin Qiao had been turning to where Xie Dong was from time to time.?Among the few vibes she had sensed, one was particularly familiar. ‘Am I wrong, or did he really come here?’ She wondered.
The vibes of the few superpowered people were strong and strange to Lin Qiao, while the one familiar to her was weak and unstable.
‘What’s going on?’
