“I’m only here to let you know, as I don’t want to worry about me when you can’t see me,” said Lin Qiao.

Mrs. Lin glanced at her, then sighed and responded, “I am worried about you, because you’re going to somewhere so far away and dangerous.”

“Relax!” Lin Qiao said, “I’m bringing Lili with me. I believe that we’ll be safe unless we encounter with over three level-seven enemies.”

Mrs. Lin had no choice but to nod, “Alright then! Just… be careful! Do come back, okay? I don’t want what happened last time to happen again…’

Mrs. Lin didn’t finish her sentence.

“Mom, relax,” Lin Qiao repeated, “I will be careful, for you.”

Mrs. Lin looked at her, without knowing what else to say.

At that moment, Lin Qiao stood up and said, “I’m going to the roof.”

Mrs. Lin stood up along with her and walked her to the door, then stood there and watched her leave. Lin Qiao glanced back at her mother, then walked upstairs.

Earlier on, she stayed invisible to avoid Wu Chengyue; but now, as she had made it all clear with him, she had no reason to hide.

She went to the roof and hopped onto the roof of the stair room. Qiu Lili had left a mat on that place. Lin Qiao directly lied on it, gazing at the sky.

After the apocalypse, the sky had been cloudy the whole time. The stars and moon never showed up again. They were still there, just covered by the dust and smoke in the air.

The wind at night was cold. Lin Qiao couldn’t sense coldness like human beings, but still, she sensed a coolness which was perfect for her.

She spent the whole night lying there and came down at dawn, yelling at the group of zombie leaders who had bathed for the whole night.

“Get up, get up! It’s dawn… Your time is up!”

Once she said that, those zombie leaders quickly got out of their buckets. Even the zombie old man who slept through got up by himself, then unhurriedly put on his Tang-Dynasty-styled clothes, which were designed for elderly and middle-aged people.

After putting on their clothes, those zombies leaped off the roof and headed toward their own territories. Lin Qiao didn’t need to give them any further instructions.

She sent the dark mist into those zombies’ bath buckets, then watched the water in those buckets become streams of dark mist and rise into the air.

As those buckets were emptied, Lin Qiao waved her hand and took the mist back. After that, she turned invisible and darted through the roofs, toward West Lake.

After getting out of the zombie wall, she landed on a highway which was miles away from the new base site and filled with abandoned cars. She showed herself there and waved a hand to let out a regular black off-road car.

Next, she took out her sunglasses and put them on while sitting into the driver’s seat. She didn’t ask Qiu Lili to come out, as she knew that the latter wouldn’t like the dust on the way.

So, she had no choice but to drive alone.

She drove along Qian River and slowed down while getting close to Hangzhou Zoo. She parked by a crossing, then got off the car and let Bowwow out of her space.

“Owooo!” Bowwow gave a roar when it came out to find the strange environment, as if it was letting the animals in the zoo know that ‘Bowwow is here’.

Lin Qiao didn’t let the giant snake out because she hadn’t built a stable relationship with it. At least it wasn’t addicted to the lake water yet, so she couldn’t let it out.

After all, it would definitely run away if she did.

Following Bowwow’s howl, waves of roars could be heard from the woods nearby.

Lin Qiao hadn’t even arrived at the zoo yet. However, judging by those roars, this whole area had clearly been occupied by animals. This place had been a forbidden area in Hangzhou the whole time.

Lin Qiao gave Bowwow a kick and said, “Stay quiet! Do you want them to know that we’re intruding in their territories?”

“Owooo!” Hearing the responses from so many wild beasts, Bowwow immediately got excited. It didn’t understand those animals, but those roars meant that there were preys in this area!

Lin Qiao put the car back into her space, then walked toward the zoo. But before she had walked far, a giant bird flew at her from the sky.

She raised her head to find that it was an enormous red-crowned crane, which looked quite fierce! Its body was white, and the tips of its wings and tail were black. It spread its wings and dove toward Lin Qiao; its wingspan was about five meters, and its claws were strong and long.

Red-crowned cranes were supposed to be elegant, but this one looked terrifying.

Its legs which should be long and slim were now especially strong, and its claws were sparkling with a cold light, even sharper than eagle claws. A few horns had grown out of its red crown and its beak was surrounded by some scales. Its eyes were sharp, containing a strong hostility.

Seeing the fierce and aggressive giant red-crowned crane, Lin Qiao sighed. Things had truly changed after the apocalypse. Even red-crowned cranes had turned into such brutal creatures.

“Caw!” The red-crowned crane opened its beaks wide and dove down while screaming. It was swift, and its giant body brought up a strong gust of wind toward Lin Qiao.

Clearly, Lin Qiao was its target. It didn’t seem to be interested in the zombie dog at all.

Lin Qiao calmly stood there, watching the crane dive down without dodging.

“Roar!” The zombie dog made two steps backward.

The red-crowned crane suddenly flapped its wings and raised its speed to another level. Within a blink, its claws came at Lin Qiao at lightning speed.

The moment before its claw landed on her head, Lin Qiao tilted her head and turned her body. Meanwhile, she swiftly reached out both hand and accurately grasped the crane’s pair of ankles.

She gripped the bird’s legs and easily pulled it downward, violently throwing it at the ground. Then, she conveniently swung her arms aside and sent the bird to the zombie dog, which was already ready.

“Ow!” The zombie dog immediately rushed up and attacked the crane with its claws and teeth.

“Caw!” The giant crane did not know that its prey was actually able to dodge the attack and grip its legs at the same time. It gave a scream before being pressed to the ground and knocked out. It didn’t even realize what was happening.

Before it woke up, the zombie dog pounced on the bird, opened its jaws, and bit the bird’s head before suddenly shaking its head.

Crack! The red-crowned crane’s head was neatly bitten off.

The red blood splashed everywhere while the headless crane was still flapping its wings and twitching its legs to struggle. However, the zombie dog pressed the bird’s body firmly onto the ground.
