Qin Yi yelled all of a sudden and scattered some medicinal powder to the front. The yellow powder blurred one’s vision, and Dr. Lin squinted his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, Qin Yi and the others were gone.
The powder entered Dr. Lin’s eyes and he felt awful. Everything was blurry and he gritted his teeth – he actually let them escape.
Ah-Sen felt terrible too. He couldn’t see things clearly, but he could still see that Qin Yi and the others were gone.
Ah-Sen bent down and asked, “Doctor, what should we do?”
Dr. Lin narrowed his eyes and his blood-stained lips spat out two words. “Give chase.”
Over at this side, Qin Yi rode on Ji, bringing along Qing Jue and Ze Ning as they quickly got away from Dr. Lin. After some time, when they saw that nobody was chasing them, Qin Yi tapped on Ji’s head. “Stop.”
Ji stopped obediently and his big furry head brushed against Qin Yi’s hand lightly. Qin Yi smiled gently and stroked its head.
Qin Yi got off Ji’s back and Ze Ning and Qing Jue did the same. For a moment, all three of them didn’t know what to say.
Qin Yi was the first to speak. “What are you guys planning to do next?”
Ze Ning glanced at Qin Yi. She was still disguised as a zombie but the scent on her body was a human. Ze Ning was upset for a split second but let it go.
Whether she was a human or a zombie, she was still his good friend, Xiao Qi.
“I want to go back. Dr. Lin used us to start a war with mankind – I must stop him. It’s best to go back now and tell the rest in case the others get cheated too.”
In just ten minutes, Ze Ning had thought about everything.
Qin Yi looked at Ze Ning in admiration. She was right about him previously – this zombie was really smart and maybe someday, he would really achieve the wishes of his heart.
Ze Ning was thinking the same thing as Qin Yi. She couldn’t let Dr. Lin succeed in his scheme even though she didn’t understand why Dr. Lin wanted to do this.
If it were purely against her, Dr. Lin wouldn’t go through so much trouble.
“I thought so too. We must not let Dr. Lin get his way. Zombie king, we need to put aside the differences between both sides and resolve this matter first.”
Qin Yi looked seriously at Qing Jue.
Qing Jue felt uneasy from her stare. “I understand.”
He may be stupid, but he still knew when to be serious. Humans and zombies would have a war but now wasn’t the time.
Qin Yi trusted Qing Jue’s words because with so many zombies under him, Qing Jue couldn’t bear to let them go so they would still return.
“You guys must be careful when you go back. Dr. Lin won’t let you guys off so easily, but my medicinal powder will make them suffer for a few days. You guys should still have some time.”
After Qin Yi spoke, she took out a few more bottles of medicinal powder from the Origin Space. “If you guys can’t fight against him, you can use this and flee.”
This medicinal powder was prepared for her by Qingge. When it is scattered into one’s eyes, one wouldn’t be able to see for a few days.
Ze Ning took it and looked deeply at Qin Yi. His beautiful eyes were full of reluctance. “Xiao Qi, take care.”
“Sure, I will.” Qin Yi had a good impression of Ze Ning. And just now, if he didn’t save her, she might have been hurt. Although she wouldn’t be dead, getting attacked mentally wasn’t a laughing matter.
After Ze Ning and Qing Jue left, Qin Yi couldn’t hold it in any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood. She was hurt and even a grade 8 ability user like her couldn’t fight against Dr. Lin. She may have gotten away in the end, but her mind was still unstable.
Ji walked over to Qin Yi. His bright yellow tiger eyes were filled with worry. “Master, are you alright?”
Qin Yi casually wiped off the bloodstains on her mouth and went on the tiger’s back. Her voice was firm. “Let’s go, back to the base.”
