Lu Tianyi looked at her with surprise and said, “Didn’t you tell us to turn our faces away?”

Lin Qiao didn’t respond. Instead, she looked at Lu Tianyi, then raised her head to glance at Mo Yan, who was standing behind a window in another house.

She nodded and then went into the living room of her house.

As she gathered all the energy in the lake to the bottom, Lu Tianyi and the other zombies were able to fetch the water from the lake by themselves during the past month. After she came out of the lake, they weren’t able to approach the lake again.

Lin Qiao looked around and found a small pond between the lake and the new fields. It was not large, only about two-hundred meters squared. The pond was connected with the lake by a canal, which led the water from the lake into the pond.

“Oh, we dug the pond together. We can’t get close to the lake, so it’s inconvenient for us to use the water. Now, there are more and more crops, so we’re going to need more and more water. That was my idea,” Lu Tianyi explained as he noticed that Lin Qiao was looking at the pond.

Lin Qiao nodded, but didn’t say anything. Then, she turned and exited her space.

If she had closed her eyes to look outside before she left her space, she would find that she wasn’t able to look outside her space anymore. All she would see was thick, white fog.

Lin Qiao exited her space and saw a heap of ruins. She was stunned, and the first thought she had was…

‘Damn! Is my base destroyed again! How long have I spent at the bottom of the lake?’

She looked around with disbelief and found that she was on an abandoned street.

The whole area was wasted. The buildings had collapsed, covered in dust. Garbage was seen everywhere. Some tall and weird-looking trees could be seen as well. In the base, dangerous-looking trees like those would have been chopped long ago.

Where was that place?

Lin Qiao realized that she wasn’t in All Beings Base. She sighed with relief, also feeling utterly confused.

What the hell had happened? Why was she in that strange place? Shouldn’t she appear right in her room?

Where… Where was she? Did she do something wrong?

While trying to figure it out, she quickly re-entered her space. She was still able to enter and exit her space, but why did she show up in a strange place?

After re-entering her space, she closed her eyes to look outside. As a result, she saw nothing but thick, white fog. So, she exited her space once again. But, she was dumbfounded on seeing the strange surrounding environment.

Was she now only able to land in random spots when she came out of her space? Couldn’t she go anywhere she wanted anymore?

With that thought, she entered her space again. As she exited her space for the third time, she was in a new place again. It turned out that her guess was right.

She started searching around for useful information. At least, she needed to figure out where she was.

She found some broken, color-faded signboard of stores, as well as some road signs that had fallen and been covered by dust.

One hour later, she roughly figured out her own location. She was about ten miles away from Upper City District.

She had no idea why she jumped ten miles away from the base. That might have something to do with her current body condition. Her power was gone, and her space was having some problems. Should she feel lucky that she was still able to go in and out of her space?

She raised her hands and found that she was still unable to use her power. She had become a zombie with disabled power, just like Mo Yan!

Thankfully, she still had her strength and agility. At least, she could still easily leap on top of a seven-story building.

She leaped higher and higher, from one building to another. At last, she stopped on top of a twenty-story building and sensed the scents in the air.

She smelt her base and the people inside, along with something else. She turned to another direction.

She leaped off the roof and landed on a balcony, then hid in a room. She had lost her invisibility, so she had to take cover.

Soon, a series of noises were heard from where she was looking at.

“Roar…” A bear roar came from that area.

Bang! It was a loud sound caused by a superpower attack.

A group of superpowered people were being chased by a few mutated dogs at level five or six.

Their vibes were unstable, energies running out. Unlike them, those mutated dogs gave out ferocious vibes while chasing tightly behind those people.

Lin Qiao quietly observed the dozen people. The scent of blood could be sensed from every single one of them.

The group of men had been surrounding two girls to protect them. One of the two girls was carried in a strong man’s arm, seeming to be unconscious.

“Get into that building!” A man pointed at the building that Lin Qiao was hiding in and gave a shout. As a result, the group of people quickly rushed into that building.

Lin Qiao turned her eyes away when those people arrived downstairs.

The few mutated dogs followed them to the building, but stopped about ten meters away, staring at the building vigilantly.

“They stopped!” The group of people rushed into the building and took cover. As they prepared to find the stairs and go to the second floor, some of them found that those dogs didn’t follow them in.

He turned and then saw with surprise that those dogs had all paused on the outside.

Those dogs stayed outside the building and made a few steps forward. Clearly, they weren’t willing to leave. They stared at those people ragingly, wanting to go in. But, an indescribable fear had been controlling their body, forbidding them from taking another step forward.

‘Dangerous!’

That thought existed in the minds of those dogs.

At last, the most cowardly mutated dog lost it to the fear. It quietly made a few steps backward, and then ran away.

Its departure swayed the other dogs. In fact, those mutated dogs had all fallen into mania. Their minds weren’t clear, yet the instinctive fear still controlled them. They were still sensitive to dangers.

They agitatedly lingered near the building for a short while, then all turned and left.

“Why… Why did they leave?” The people who were hiding in that building were surprised to see those dogs leave. Those dogs had chased them for tens of miles, but they suddenly left for no reason. That fact alerted those people.

Those mutated dogs were already crazy. They left, meaning that they had instinctively felt fear or were suppressed. Those level five or six dogs were frightened. The only explanation was that something even more terrifying than those dogs was in that building!
