Zombie Sister Strategy - Chapter 1403
Chapter 1403: Gather More Information
Kong Qingming and the others parked the vehicles in an outlying area about ten miles away from Huaxia Base. After that, he sent most of his men to escort Li Yue He back to Sea City Base and left only two by his side. Then, the three of them ran a discussion with Yun Meng about the information-gathering task.
“Si Kongchen is going crazy in the zombie crowd. I guess he has so much anger to vent. After all, his plan has failed multiple times,” Yun Meng told Kong Qingming about what was happening on Si Kongchen’s side.
She had summoned over ten-thousand zombies and zombie beasts to draw Si Kongchen’s attention, so that Kong Qingming and his people would have enough time to react if their action failed. She successfully attracted the attention of Si Kongchen and the others while Kong Qingming’s mission turned out to be effortless. Someone from Huaxia Base had even offered him help.
At the moment, Si Kongchen was launching fierce attacks on the zombie crowd. He kept releasing his fire power to burn the zombies. Of course, his level-eight power was causing severe damage.
Fire power was always highly effective in battles. As a level-eight being, he could easily throw out a giant fireball and make it explode like a missile. In addition, the temperature of his fire was exceptionally high; it could turn earth into lava within a blink.
Yun Meng hadn’t expected that Si Kongchen would come out of the base to deal with those zombies himself. She thought he would probably send out Wei Haichao, Han Xiao, or some other people under his command. Instead, he came out himself and started throwing his fire power at the zombie crowd madly.
He looked obviously agitated.
Speaking of Si Kongchen’s anger, Kong Qingming and the others laughed with gloat, “He deserves that! He asked for it, actually. He shouldn’t have tried to bring us trouble.”
“So this time, I’ll first get into Si Kongchen’s place to try and find out his next plan. You guys can look somewhere else, such as the offices of Han Xiao, Wei Haichao, and the other chairmen of the base. They must know about Si Kongchen’s new plan as well,” Yun Meng gave her suggestion as she looked at Kong Qingming and asked, “What do you think?”
Kong Qingming nodded and said, “I’m fine with it. But do be careful, and don’t get too close to Si Kongchen. He’s a level-eight man after all. Your invisibility might be ineffective against him.”
“I understand,” Yun Meng nodded and said.
Next, the four of them split up and sneaked into Huaxia Base again to gather the information they needed.
Si Kongchen and his people soon cleaned out the ten-thousand zombies. However, he didn’t find the level-seven zombie that he thought would be on the scene. Standing on a hill, he narrowed his eyes and looked around. Then, he turned back to question Wei Haichao, “Where’s that level-seven zombie?”
Wei Haichao was looking around as well. On hearing Si Kongchen’s question, he realized that the former was probably unhappy. But in fact, Si Kongchen had already given vent to some of his anger. So, despite how sour he sounded, he was feeling slightly better than before.
Wei Haichao turned his head from side to side, saying with confusion, “This is weird. How come not even a level-five zombie exists among such a large crowd? It’s probably hiding somewhere.”
The zombies below level-seven couldn’t possibly summon such a large crowd of zombies. Si Kongchen was, of course, aware of that. He wanted to know where the high-leveled zombie was.
“Find it! It couldn’t have gone far!” He gave Wei Haichao an order with a cold voice.
“I get it! If it hasn’t run away, we’ll certainly find it,” Wei Haichao nodded and left quickly. He was confident, believing that he would be able to find at least some traces of that level-seven zombie. However, he soon realized that he was wrong. He searched through five miles round but failed to find any trace of any level-seven zombie.
With a frown, he gazed into the distance, wondering if the level-seven zombie had left already. He had nature power, so all the plants within miles surrounding him were his ears and eyes. Through them, he could sense every living being in that area. However, he never sensed any trace of any level-seven zombie, even though he had taken a few circles in that area and his search had covered a wide range.
“Maybe it’s a special zombie that can hide all its traces,” Wei Haichao murmured to himself as he turned and went back to Si Kongchen.
Si Kongchen wasn’t angry when he heard from Wei Haichao that the zombie couldn’t be found. Instead, he looked at the latter blandly and snorted, “It ran away long ago, yet you still bothered to find it.”
Wei Haichao immediately stared at him with discontentment, saying, “If you already knew that it had run away, why did you still send me to look for it?”
Si Kongchen didn’t say anything but turned back to the base and disappeared. Wei Haichao didn’t know what to say either.
On the other side of Huaxia Base, Yun Meng sneaked into Si Kongchen’s office building, avoiding the people walking in the hall. It took her a while to find his office.
She didn’t go inside, because the door was closed. Before finding the information she needed, she could not expose herself. Therefore, she left the office to search the rest of the building.
As Yun Meng and Kong Qingming were performing their task, Lin Qiao was upgrading her zombie soldiers using the nuclei that Mo Yan gave her while waiting for Huaxia Base’s next move. The threat from Huaxia Base was the reason that she upgraded her army. However, Si Kongchen had been extra quiet recently. No actions had been taken by him at all.
Lin Qiao used the time to upgrade all medium-leveled zombies under her command. Currently, she had about eighty level-six zombies in her army. In the meantime, she made a trip to West Lake and brought back the ones above level-three from the crowd of zombies that were kept in that area. After returning to the base, she threw those zombies into the training ground as well.
The zombie army had grown larger recently. Currently, the number of zombie soldiers had reached about seven-thousand.
After Yun Meng left for Huaxia Base, Lin Qiao had sent Old Guo to the army. The army required at least one high-leveled zombie to maintain order. Lin Qiao herself visited the army for inspection only occasionally. After all, she still had other work to do for the base. Lin Feng would go through everything first and then pass the work that needed to be done by Lin Qiao herself to her.
That day, Lin Wenwen came to Lin Qiao’s office to deliver the research materials that had gone through the second round of screening. She came in and saw Lin Qiao, but before she could say anything, darkness came over her eyes.
