Seeing the surprised look on the frozen zombie’s face, Lin Qiao smiled and asked, “Do you know what day today is? Do you remember when you got caught?”

Hearing her words, the zombie erased his expression and shook his head, then nodded.

Lin Qiao nodded slightly as she understood his meaning. He remembered when was he caught, but didn’t know what day was today.

That made sense though. After he got caught, he was mostly in sleep. There was no clock in the freezing chamber to show him the time, so he surely didn’t know how long he was kept in there.

“It’s the middle of December, in the fifth year after the apocalypse. The sixth year is beginning soon. When were you caught?” Lin Qiao looked at him and asked.

The frozen zombie didn’t answer her question, but looked around, then looked outside the window.

Just now, he had been feeling that a strange kind of energy was entering his body. That energy was in a very, very small, even ignorable amount, but he could clearly feel that it was beneficial to his body, as his body was special. He was curious about where he was.

He had also sensed a lot of high-leveled zombies nearby. Apart from that, he somehow felt under suppression, but didn’t understand why.

He looked at Lin Qiao. The suppression wasn’t from her. Where was it from?

Lin Qiao couldn’t read his mind, but managed to guess out what he was thinking about based on the look in his eyes.

“Do you want to know where you are? You can go out and take a good look around, then you’ll find out. But before that, you need to understand your current situation. I saved you from that lab, but can’t let you go anywhere you want, because they might catch you again. We would all be in huge trouble if they caught you again. Do you know about the research that they did with you?” Lin Qiao erased the faint smile from her face and said to the zombie with a serious look.

The frozen zombie turned around and looked at her. His eyes contained an obvious puzzled look. He knew that the female zombie hadn’t finished talking. There was more for her to say.

Lin Qiao paused and spent a few seconds looking at the zombie quietly, then continued, “Do you want to know? If you do, you need to promise me one thing first.”

‘There’s a trap before me. Should I jump in??‘ The frozen zombie thought.

He was confused at first, then realized that Lin Qiao had set a trap for him! He found that that female zombie wasn’t easy to deal with.

“You can think about it. In fact, it’s not a bad thing for you. I want you to come back to my base with me and live there. Maybe, we can work together! Don’t worry, I won’t force you to work for me. I’m only offering you a place to live. But of course, you need to follow the rules in my base. Also, your body is special. So, without my permission, please do not leave the base.” Lin Qiao said to the zombie.

She claimed that she wouldn’t force him to work for her, but also expressed the meaning that he would be house arrested in her base. He had no idea what would happen after he got there. Why would he believe her?

The zombie looked at Lin Qiao with a complicated expression in his eyes.

Lin Qiao said, “Take your time to think about it. That’s my only condition. If you accept it, you’ll be able to leave this place and know all that you want to know. However, if you don’t accept it, I’m sorry, but I’ll have to ask you to stay here for now, because your body is special.”

Her threatening words made the zombie’s eyes glow with a cold light. The glare that he gave Lin Qiao immediately turned sharp.

Lin Qiao ignored the look in his eyes, but the two lower-leveled ones behind her tightened their bodies.

“Relax, we won’t hurt you. However, you do need my permission to leave this place, because… only I can control this place.” While speaking, Lin Qiao reached out a hand toward the zombie, and gave him a faint smile.

“Er… roar!” The zombie immediately sprung up. His hair even stood up, as if he was facing a powerful enemy. He bared his mouth and knitted his brows as he stared at Lin Qiao fiercely with a ferocious look.

The hair on the back of his head started growing quickly, extending to his back from the back of his neck. Within a blink, he became a large, fluffy panther.

His zombie face turned round and hairy; his two pairs of fangs shone with a cold light. However, he only maintained that state for three seconds. After that, his hair became short again.

He panicked. Vigilance, intention of killing, helplessness, confusion… all sorts of complicated emotions could be detected from his eyes.

He was vigilant against Lin Qiao, and even wanted to kill her. He was panicking and helpless because he found that he could no longer control himself. His body disarmed itself against his will. Why? How could that happen?

That suppression which he hadn’t been paying attention to was suddenly boosted, making him feel as if his whole body was bound.

Was that invisible, suppressive force what disarmed him?

At that point, Lin Qiao dropped her hand. Once she did that, the zombie felt that the bounded feeling was gone. Then, his hair grew long again, and he quickly turned back into a panther. This time, he didn’t feel anything strange again, and he was able to maintain that state for more than three seconds.

He maintained that beast form as he stared straight at Lin Qiao. He had already realized something.

‘This place should be this female zombie’s space!’

“You seem to have guessed it already!” Lin Qiao looked at him in the eyes and smiled faintly.

“Your blood was made into antidote to kill ordinary zombies. Currently, Huaxia Base is preparing to generalize that antidote. For human beings, that is very helpful, but for us, that’s no good. So, I’m offering you protection, and also asking you to cooperate with us. Otherwise, we’ll all die in the end!” She looked at him and said.

The zombie paused in shock. Lin Qiao’s words had really surprised him. He couldn’t have imagined that his blood was actually made into a weapon against zombies! He knew that his body was special, but didn’t expect that to happen.

If what Lin Qiao said was true, that antidote could indeed be counted as a big step forward for human beings. But, there were so many zombies in the world. Was his blood enough to kill them all?
