Chapter 498: What Frogs Can Do

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Being reminded by Lin Qiao, Duan Juan remembered that she hadn’t sent people out to pick Li Hongsheng and the others up. Her eyes glowed as she looked at Lin Qiao and asked, “You know how, right? Because you let us in.”

Lin Qiao nodded and said, “Which man do you want to send out? Tell him to come over.”

Duan Juan immediately asked the few men who earlier followed her into the base to come over and stand in front of Lin Qiao.

Lin Qiao stood straight and walked to those men. She stood before them, then abruptly took out a few green things and gave one to each of them.

“Take this. It’ll work better than earlier when you got in. Don’t forget to keep the people you’re going to bring in from the outside between you,” she said to them.

People looked at what Lin Qiao handed to those men with both confusion and surprise… because those were a few grass frogs.

That was right! Those were a few frogs made from grass leaves.

Lin Qiao smilingly looked at the expressions on their faces. On the inside, she had already burst into laughter. She was planning to directly wipe her own blood on those men, but she had a second thought… A weird way like that might make some people who had extreme thoughts suspicious.

So, she pondered shortly, then picked some grass leaves from her space and made a few frogs, hiding a drop of her blood in each of those frogs.

She had tried. Her blood directly drove Qiu Lili away from her, not to mention those lower-leveled zombies. Those zombies ran away without leaving a trace.

She knew that not only did her blood give out the pressure from a zombie queen, but also contained the energy from the lake.

A small amount of that kind of energy would make zombies excited and happy, but with a great amount, it would arouse their instinctive fear. In her space, the group of high-leveled zombies and the mutated snake didn’t dare to approach the lake because too much energy was contained in the lake water. Only the silly zombie dog had the courage to get close to the lake, but not too close.

The few men confusedly took over those grass frogs, then turned to look at Duan Juan helplessly.

If they didn’t just come in from the outside, they wouldn’t even take over those frogs. That was just like a joke!

Duan Juan walked over and took a frog from a man’s hands. She glanced at it, then paused for a second and blinked. Soon, she put it under her nose to sniff at it, then felt it with her superpower.

“This thing contains a special type of energy. I think you can give it a shot.” She gave the frog back to the man and said.

“Don’t you believe me? Then you’ll have to figure out a way to go out by yourselves. But, I need to tell you that what helped you enter the base has faded away. That couldn’t last for long, so I gave you this. You should feel lucky that I didn’t make grass dolls for you,” said Lin Qiao.

“May I ask a question? Where did you learn to weave… like this?” Duan Juan looked at Lin Qiao and asked.

Lin Qiao smiled and responded calmly, “What? Can’t you tell? I guess only your Chief and her family know how to weave like this.”

She didn’t speak with a strong tone, but her words contained a huge amount of information.

Duan Juan was stunned a little. Suddenly, she stared at Lin Qiao in the eyes and asked, “Do you know our Chief?”

Lin Qiao spread her hands and said, “In fact, I’m gonna make it clear with you now. I’m from East China, and I know Lin Feng and his family… Ah, and Yuan Tianxing. You know him too, don’t you?”

Lin Qiao knew what Duan Juan wanted to ask. When she was in a special forces, everyone in her squad knew that she could weave small things like those frogs, and were familiar with her weaving styles.

Therefore, Duan Juan was surprised on seeing those frogs. She had a few guesses, but she wasn’t sure which one was right.

Hence, Lin Qiao mentioned Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng to distract them.

“Deputy Chief!” Hearing Yuan Tianxing’s name, Duan Juan and the others exclaimed out loud in one voice.

“Did you see him? How is he now?” Duan Juan was a little excited.

Lin Qiao tilted her head and replied, “He’s fine. He and Lin Feng and the others have started to build a new base somewhere in East China. If you’re planning to go to Sea City Base, you should better head to their new base.”

She didn’t give them all the details. She only said those words to guide them, because she knew that those people were trying to figure out her relationship with Yuan Tianxing.

Hearing Lin Qiao’s words, Duan Juan suddenly sighed in relief, as if she was suddenly freed from some kind of concern.

“That’s wonderful! As long as they’re okay! There is a new base? That’s so great! We can go to find them!” said Duan Juan happily. At the same time, the others all looked at each other delightfully.

Lin Qiao said to the few who were still gazing at the grass frogs in their hands, “Aren’t you going out to pick up some other people? Remember, don’t lose the frogs!”

“Alright, you go. We’ve just got in safely, so I believe going out will be even easier,” Duan Juan said to them.

Those people prepared to put the frogs into their bags.

“Oh, wait! You should better hang these frogs on your bags with ropes. Don’t put them inside your bags or wrap them up. Otherwise, they might not work,” Lin Qiao hurriedly stopped them.

Those frogs would scare zombies because they gave out Lin Qiao’s scent. If they were put into bags, the scent that they gave out would become weak, and their effects would be weak as well.

Those men were still confused. However, they still found ropes and hang those frogs on their belts because of what happened earlier.

After they left, Duan Juan looked at Lin Qiao and said gratefully, “Thank you for helping us! I don’t know your name yet.”

“My last name is Lu. You don’t need to thank me. I helped you for a reason. Don’t forget what you promised me before. Also, I helped you for the sake of Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng, and what I did for you was just a small thing,” Lin Qiao carelessly waved a hand, then continued, “Just think about what to do with these captives.”

While speaking, she pointed at those enemies who were tied up, kneeling on the ground.

Duan Juan turned and looked down at those people with frosty eyes.

“They destroyed our home, killed our families and friends, and took away our food and supplies! We will kill them!” She looked at those people coldly and said word by word.

“Kill them!” Hearing what she said, everyone around her showed a cold look.

“Kill them!” Soon, everyone was shouting the same words while looking at those tied enemies with icy-cold eyes.
