870 Go Together (1/2)
Lin Jing slowly sensed the panther's kindness. She stood up, but suffered a severe dizziness once she got up, her sight turning blurry. As she nearly passed out, the black panther hurriedly moved backward to let her fall on its back.
After the intense fight and struggle, Lin Jing was exhausted. Her body already had enough to cope with. She felt that the panther wouldn't hurt her, so she relaxed and fell into unconsciousness.
…
On the other side of the base, Lan Lu and the others had all been staring at the two level-six zombies. Those two had been keeping a safe distance from the base, so Lan Lu didn't plan to attack them, unless they approached further.
As Lan Lu didn't make a move, the others didn't do anything either.
Soon, another figure showed up beside the two.
”That's…” Chang Qingqing found the third zombie carrying a person in his arms. He was moving toward the two level-six zombies.
”That's a zombie dominator,” said Lan Lu.
”He's holding someone!” Chang Qingqing said with a frown.
”I'll go and take a look,” Lan Lu said, then leaped out of the window and moved fleetingly toward the three zombies.
If they weren't with a human being, Lan Lu would ignore them. However, they clearly had brought someone out of the base. He couldn't pretend not to see it.
Lin Kui sensed Lan Lu's movement right away. He didn't make any large reaction, but paused on top of a building, then turned around and quietly watched Lan Lu come up to him. The fainted Lin Jing was carried in his arms.
Mo and Ye Qingxian stood behind him, staring at Lan Lu alertly.
Lan Lu landed on top of the building across the street. He stood at the edge of the roof, looking at the three quiet zombies. He narrowed his eyes and saw the three zombies' dark eyes sparkle with a different colored light. He worked with zombies all the time, so he could clearly tell that those three zombies weren't showing any hostility toward him, but were only instinctively vigilant against him.
Lan Lu had no idea who the three zombies were, or if they could communicate with humans. He tried to ask them a question as a start, ”Do you want to take her away?”
The zombie dominator carried the woman with a strange posture. It was not like a zombie holding its prey. On the contrary, he seemed to be protecting her carefully. Therefore, Lan Lu immediately figured that he wouldn't hurt that woman.
Lin Kui nodded silently.
Lan Lu looked at him with surprise and continued, ”Do you understand me? I think you're not a normal zombie.”
”Aren't you guys the same? You're not normal humans. Which normal human hangs out with zombies?” Ye Qingxian said to Lan Lu with a slightly sarcastic tone.
Hearing Ye Qingxian's dry and hoarse voice, Lan Lu laughed and said knowingly, ”You're from All Beings Base, aren't you? Can you tell me about your relationship with her? I need to know if she'll be safe with you at least.”
”She'll be safer with us than in your base, because we'll protect her,” said Ye Qingxian. He was trying to say that Lin Jing had a rough time in Green Mountain Base. The sallow look on her face indicated that clearly.
Lan Lu paused briefly, then thought for a moment and asked, ”So, are you bringing her back to All Beings Base?”
This time, Ye Qingxian didn't answer his question, so Lin Kui nodded to respond instead.
