Chapter 1309: Enter the Mysterious World
Of course, there were no buildings or other signs of civilization down there. What could be seen were so weirdly shaped plants, looking dark and blurry under that cold and dim light.
Everyone moved closer to the exit as they curiously observed to strange plants that had huge leaves. They looked like both trees and bushes.
Those plants had large leaves but weren’t growing upward like trees. Instead, their twisted branches reached in all directions. Drifting above those plants was a thick layer of mist, similar to the mist on top of Lin Qiao’s space. The mist wasn’t white but had a dark-purple color. The mist was obviously rolling and swirling. So tornado-shaped swirls were even connected with so plants on the ground. Over ten swirls like that could be seen within the area tens of ters in radius. There were more in the further areas, but those couldn’t be seen clearly.
Lin Qiao brought her team out. The exit was about ten ters away from the ground outside.
She could clearly feel that the energy contained in the thick dark-purple mist was the sa kind of energy that had intruded Yuan Tianxing’s body!
“I think we need to split up from here. Rember this place. We’ll find a way to go up from here if we can’t find any other way out,” Lin Qiao looked around and then said to the others.
“Got it!” Kong Qingming nodded. He knew that Lin Qiao was prepared to let out the ones in her space.
Lin Qiao glanced at Lei Cheng before flashing into her space in front of the others.
“Everybody, co here!” Standing before her house in the space, she gave a shout. Within a blink of an eye, groups of zombies ca out of the three houses or the nearby areas. So of them ca from behind the houses, and so leaped down the roofs. So zombies were ready for the call long ago. They had gathered on the ground floor of the three houses, waiting for Lin Qiao’s order.
Lu Tianyi waved at the dozens of level three or four zombies in the vegetable field while saying, “She isn’t calling you guys. You guys stay where you are.”
Those zombies were preparing to go to Lin Qiao. But, on hearing what he said, they looked at her and found that she really wasn’t looking at them. So, they all stopped moving, with their eyes fixed on her while hesitating.
Lin Qiao heard Lu Tianyi’s voice and cast a glance at the vegetable filed. Then, she nodded and said, “You guys don’t need to co here. This has nothing to do with you.”
As Lin Qiao disappeared, Duan Juan and the others each made a few steps backward to create so space for her. Soon, she showed up together with a group of zombies.
Those zombies weren’t all under her command. Half of them were from Green Mountain Base.
The group of zombies quickly split into two groups: one stayed behind Lin Qiao while the other moved to Lei Cheng and his people.
“We’ll turn left from here. The rest of the place will be yours.” Lei Cheng glanced at those zombies who were brought out of Green Mountain Base earlier and were hidden in Lin Qiao’s space by Lan Lu as he said to Lin Qiao.
“Alright!” Lin Qiao nodded at him.
Lei Cheng and his people didn’t waste any ti. As Lin Qiao nodded, they turned around and quickly disappeared in that weird-looking place.
Lin Qiao looked around, then glanced at her people, said, “Let’s leave this place first.”
After saying that, she turned around and darted out toward the right side, stepped on a three-ter-long, over ten-centiter thick leaf, jumped onto another leave and then swiftly moved forward.
The tens of people behind her all flashed across the area and disappeared from before the cave along with her.
The plants in that area were all enormous, and so leaves were ters wide. The branches were twisted, and the serpent-like vines reached upward from the ground, being covered in huge leaves. The shapes of those plants were all different, so bigger and so smaller. However, even the biggest plants were only about ten ters tall, and so were connected with the strange swirling mist coming from the upper space.
There were also so strange-looking grasses on the ground.
The others stepped on the exact sa leaves that Lin Qiao stepped on. They didn’t dare to step on any other areas, because they didn’t know the plants under their feet. Mutated plants could be very dangerous, and following Lin Qiao’s lead made them feel safer.
Under Lin Qiao’s lead, they avoided the swirling mist and kept moving forward for a while, only to stop in the clearing underneath an underground plant.
Lin Qiao looked down at the ground under her feet and then at the place above her head and the surrounding area. After making sure the place was safe, she waved at the others and said, “Stop!”
The others imdiately landed in the safe area around her. While waiting for further orders, they observed the surrounding environnt.
“Xie Dong, you take five level-five zombies and act together with Kong Qingming and his team. Lv Feng, you, Su Fangfang, take five level-five zombies and act together with Qingying. Li Zheng, you guys go with Qingying too. The rest of the team will co with . Rember, your own safety will always be the most important thing! Be as careful as possible, so you’ll have a bigger chance of survival!” Lin Qiao divided the team into a few groups and warned her people.
After all, they were now in an underground space over ten-thousand ters away from the earth’s surface, and there were living creatures down there. Any living being in that place could be highly dangerous before they learned about it! They needed to stay very careful. Any reckless move might cost them their lives.
“Yes, ma’am!” The people understood her aning. They responded to her in one voice and left in different directions, leaving her and the rest of the team staying where they were.
The ones stayed with Lin Qiao were Lu Tianyi, He Jiayun, Duan Juan, Li Hongsheng and Ding Datong, who were both from Duan Juan’s squad, and eight other level five and six zombies.
Lin Qiao glanced up and thought for a mont before warning Duan Juan and her people, “Do not take off your masks. The air in this place is toxic.”
Looking at the thick, rolling purple mist and the swirls connected with so plants, Lin Qiao could sense that the energy coming from those swirls had filled the entire space up. Duan Juan and her people might get poisoned if they took off their mask and inhaled the toxic air.
“Yes, ma’am!” Duan Juan and the others who were wearing gas masks nodded.
Lin Qiao raised her head and looked around before looking at the mist in the upper area again. She had a hunch that the mist was one of the reasons why those underground creatures went up to the earth’s surface.
