Volume 3 Chapter 42 The Late Second King

Shao Qing left with no attachments. She also carried three living creatures while leading Zhu Mochen; she looked very leisurely.

This was Jiang Yun and Lan Mingye’s paradise. If the two of them didn’t want others to disturb them, then she wouldn’t disturb them.

Shao Qing knew that the two of them would live well.

After returning to the Chinatown survivor base, it was already past the time when Er Dai usually would wake up. When Shao Qing was outside the gate, she put down the three people and threatened them very calmly: “I didn’t kill, not because I’m not capable, but because I’m too lazy. I believe that all three of you are very clear about that. I will now give you two choices. First, forget everything today and act as if nothing has happened. Second, you don’t have to go back.”

Tang Tiande was well behaved this time: “We just came out to hunt zombies today. We also didn’t encounter any zombies, so we came back. What else happened? I don’t know anything!”

Shao Qing looked satisfied and then released the three people: “Patt your own face. Right now your face is so white, who are you going to show that look to?”

When the three people heard Shao Qing’s words, they immediately slapped their faces. In a short time, it turned red. This was for fear of Shao Qing taking back her words and feeding them to Da Hua.

“Okay, if you slap anymore it’ll become swollen. Let’s go.” Shao Qing led the way, then the group of people returned to the Chinatown survivor base. Once she returned to the base, she couldn’t help but speed up the pace.

What if Er Dai can’t find her and goes crazy?

Shao Qing was not worried about Er Dai hurting others because of his madness. She was only worried that others would find something wrong about him and hurt him.

The people behind couldn’t keep up with her speed. She left them far behind. Shao Qing quickly returned to the place where they temporarily stayed. There was no panic along the way.

After opening the door, she found that Er Dai was not mad. He sat on the sofa with his legs clasped, and looked blankly out the window.

As soon as he heard the sound of the door, he quickly turned his head and saw that it was Shao Qing. Afterwards, he rushed up.

Shao Qing’s first reaction was to let out a big breath of air, then she felt distressed. Er Dai was too good. But the more he was well behaved, the more sorry Shao Qing felt.

“Is there anything you want to eat? I left the food in the refrigerator and put a note for you on the head of the bed.” Shao Qing touched Er Dai’s head.

Er Dai shook his head slowly, then plunged into Shao Qing’s arms very grievously. He opened his eyes and found that Shao Qing was gone. The whole house did not smell of Shao Qing, so how would he be in the mood to look at some note?

At that moment, he was about to turn mad. If he hadn’t started to recover recently, he would have really rushed out to find Shao Qing.

After quieting down, Er Dai sat on the sofa and didn’t go anywhere. He quietly waited for Shao Qing to come back.

He knew that Shao Qing would never abandon him. She should just be out doing something and would return soon.

Er Dai just waited like this. As time passed, he was surprisingly quiet, extremely quiet.

Even the waiting time was warm in his eyes, because the person he was waiting for was named Shao Qing.

“Good boy, you have to eat first.” Shao Qing opened the refrigerator and prepared to take out the meals prepared earlier and warm them up. Then she changed her mind halfway and made new ones.

While she was cooking, Er Dai stayed behind her. He was particularly obedient. Wherever she went, he followed. Wherever she stayed, he stayed. Without causing any trouble, he quietly watched Shao Qing.

Sometimes Shao Qing would also stuff the prepared dishes into his mouth, this scene was particularly heart warming.

When the meal was cooked, the two of them surrounded the table and finished the meal. After the meal, Shao Qing took out the rank 6 crystal nucleus from her pocket and handed it to Er Dai. She also took out a lot of rank 4 and 5 crystal nuclei out of her space and patted Er Dai’s head: “Hurry up and train. Once you’ve broken through, I will take you when we go out to hunt.

Er Dai obediently went off to train with the crystals. When he went to the room, Shao Qing didn’t take a rest. Shao Qing sat outside, holding a crystal nucleus, and was absorbing it.

After she got the red soil before, she had broken through to the sixth rank. Then the past few days, she had been using the red soil and advanced crystal nuclei to train. Now the energy in her body was basically saturated.

She just needed one chance to break through to rank 7. When that time came, she dared not say for everyone, but at least among the superhumans, her strength should certainly be regarded as the top few.

Strength is something where the stronger you are the better. The stronger the strength, the safer your companions, the more capable you are to protect the people you want to protect.

The most painful thing in this world was watching your loved one get hurt… but be helpless.

Especially in the apocalypse, danger is everywhere. Strength is the prerequisite for everything.

If you want to live well, you need strength. To protect your companions and friends, you need strength. If you don’t want to be bullied, you still need strength. Even the most basic right to speak needs strength.

If you don’t have strength? People will not listen to what you say, because there is no meaning at all.

Thus, Shao Qing thought about how to become stronger all the time. There was no end to becoming stronger. Shao Qing only had to do it one step faster than others.

That’s enough.

No one spoke during the night, both of them were cultivating. They even gave up sleeping. Er Dai did not sleep, so Shao Qing did not dare to sleep.

She was afraid that he would break through suddenly, or something would go wrong when he broke through. Then she would have no time to react, so she simply couldn’t sleep. Anyway, for her, not sleeping all night was not a big deal.

In the middle of the night, almost in the early morning, strange fluctuations came out of Er Dai’s room. At that moment, Shao Qing knew that Er Dai had broken through.

She quickly went to Er Dai’s room, but she didn’t intervene. She just watched from the side. It was obviously Er Dai who had broken through, but she was more nervous than Er Dai.

Shao Qing was afraid that there would be something wrong with this breakthrough. After all, it turned out that the higher the level for a zombie, the higher the wisdom.

If Er Dai awakened his memory while he was breaking through, or if he directly forgot his time as Er Dai, what would she do?

Shao Qing wanted to be the first one to know the exact situation of Er Dai’s breakthrough.

Shao Qing sat cross-legged at the door and stared closely at Er Dai. Er Dai was breaking through and was at the most important juncture. Success or failure would be instantaneous.

It was a lie to say she was not nervous. After releasing Da Hua, Shao Qing calmly pulled Da Hua to her side, and then grabbed the big flower’s leaves in one hand and Da Hua’s petals in the other.

The strength of her hand was so great that Da Hua was shaking his head non-stop. But no matter how smart it was, it was still just a flower. It couldn’t let out sounds, let alone beg for mercy.

Shao Qing hugged Da Hua expressionlessly. She pulled the leaves and petals of Da Hua. She looked calm, but she could not restrain her nervousness and was about to jump.

As her heart jumped to her throat, Er Dai’s strange aura dissipated and he suddenly opened his eyes. There was a sharp and deep light in his eyes.

As he opened his eyes, a colossal pressure spread out in all directions, the promotion was successful!

If someone was in the wild now, they would find that the mutant animals that were closer to the survivor base in Chinatown, as well as the zombies, were frantically fleeing far away.

They were aware of the breakthrough of Er Dai. The breakthrough of a zombie from the fourth to the fifth rank was very large. Just like a zombie group, there may be many fifth rank zombies, but there must be only one of the sixth rank.

* author may have meany many fourth but minimal fifth rank; maybe an error by author

After all, one mountain could not tolerate two tigers unless it was a male and a female, while for zombies, they do not have the concept of male and female at all. So in a zombie group, there was often only one zombie with the highest rank.

These mutated animals roaming around, or zombies, were all alone. There were no groups. So as soon as they felt the birth of a new king, they quickly fled.

Their speed was very fast, as if they were afraid of Er Dai running out and doing something to them.

The moment Er Dai broke through, Shao Qing was also extremely nervous. She tightened her hold on Da Hua all at once and even tore a petal off.

Please be silent for the poor Da Hua.

Poor Da Hua, it was in so much pain he just wanted to jump on the spot.

When Er Dai broke through and exuded his aura, he slowly retracted it. His eyes looked very wise, and he also carried a deep profound look. It was completely unlike the usual Er Dai.

When Shao Qing panicked, she couldn’t help but shout: “Er Dai!”

The originally mysterious appearance of Er Dai immediately restored to his state before the breakthrough. He happily plunged into Shao Qing’s arms. There was no shadow of his previous intelligent appearance, it was as if everything was an illusion.

More importantly, after his breakthrough, his strength was a lot stronger. In fact, he was unable to control it for a while, and immediately threw Shao Qing down.

Shao Qing’s back hit the ground fiercely. If she were not a zombie, her bones may have fractured. Shao Qing pushed Er Dai away and tried to scoop him up: “Don’t act spoiled! My bones are going to break because of you.”

Er Dai climbed up very innocently and squatted aside. He looked at Shao Qing pitifully. His eyes were too lethal. Shao Qing, who was not angry, suddenly softened. She lifted Er Dai and said, “It’s a good thing to break through, but the sun isn’t even out yet. Let’s sleep for a while.”

She pulled Er Dai to sleep.

Honestly, after seeing that Er Dai hadn’t returned to normal after his breakthrough, she felt a sense of relief .

Her thoughts were very selfish. She also felt a bit guilty, so she missed her moment to speak to Er Dai and couldn’t sleep for a while. Er Dai’s eyes flashed secretly.

Shao Qing pulled Er Dai back to her room, and then put Er Dai on the bed first. Then she stripped and after getting into the bed, she said good night and closed her eyes.

Before falling asleep, Shao Qing felt a touch of disappointment. This breakthrough, Er Dai didn’t have that…

Cough cough…I need to be pure! What a disappointment for her!
