Chapter 367: Weird Vines

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Qiao and Wu Yueling quietly squatted aside, looking at Viney who was refusing to stand up.

“Viney, why can you control your hair but not your legs?” Lin Qiao looked at her and asked with a complicated expression.

Viney turned on the ground as she twirled the vines on her head and her little root legs to the other side, then put a vine on Lin Qiao’s hand.

‘Because my legs are roots… roots… They usually only stay in the earth, and don’t move…’

Lin Qiao glanced at Wu Yueling, then turned back to Viney, “Even the little one runs quicker than you. Get up, quickly!”

Viney made a few rolls on the ground, then supported her body with the vines on her head to stand up.

Looking at the shambling Viney, Wu Yueling wanted to give a hand, but Lin Qiao didn’t let her

“Don’t go. She might fall upon you. She’s heavy, so she’ll probably hurt you.”

Wu Yueling looked at Viney with hesitation, then glanced at Lin Qiao, seeming to be struggling.

Meanwhile, Viney stood quite steadily, but couldn’t walk.

“Raise one leg first, then make a step. Move another leg after you have steadied yourself. Be patient, slow… The second leg… the third leg… Yes, just like this… Walk slowly…”

Lin Qiao spent a whole hour teaching Viney how to walk. Only after that was the latter able to walk slowly. Still, she couldn’t run; once she tried, her six legs would knit together and trip her.

In the small space, Shen Yujen hid beside the entrance, sticking her head out and curiously watching Lin Qiao teach Viney how to walk. She wanted to come out very much, but she was quite afraid of Viney’s vibe. So, with no other choice, she kept hiding there and watching.

She was also very curious about why Princess Wu Yueling was in this space. Seeing Wu Yueling running around Viney with a faint smile on her face, she felt even stranger.

Wasn’t Wu Yueling an autistic child? Why was she playing with someone else like a healthy child now?

As Wu Chengyue had secretly told Viney that Wu Chengyue would come to pick the little one up soon, Viney had been expecting him while learning how to walk from Lin Qiao.

Viney was now able to sense the vibes, scents, and noises from the outside world through Lin Qiao; her range of sensing was about a hundred meters in radius.

She wasn’t able to see the outside world, but could differentiate the good vibes from the bad ones. She told Lin Qiao that she wasn’t able to exit the space, and that wasn’t a lie. However, there was one thing that she didn’t tell Lin Qiao: even though her body couldn’t leave the base, her vines were actually able to sneak out! To do that, she needed to touch Lin Qiao’s body.

At this moment, Yuan Tianxing and the others who were in the living room on the outside had been staring at the few long, jade-white vines which came from an unknown source with astonishment. Those vines were wriggling all over the living room, showing no sign of attacking them though.

Those vines looked a little familiar to some of them.

“Where… are these from?”

Those people sat on the couches in shock as they watched those vines touch everything in the living room. Soon, those vines reached and moved around them.

At that moment, someone suddenly pushed the door open. Xing Le walked in excitedly and said, “There’s the news… Eh? What are these?”

Yuan Tianxing shook his head and responded, “I don’t know. Don’t attack them yet. Let’s see what they want. They aren’t showing any bad intentions.”

Lin Wenwen glanced at Xing Le, then turned back to stare at those jade-white vines while asking, “How are things going over there? Did Yang Chao die?”

Xing Le carefully walked to the couches. As those vines suddenly reached toward him, he immediately stopped moving, gazing at them while answering Lin Wenwen’s question.

“He died. I heard that he became some kind of ugly monster, and that even Chief Wu’s lightning attack couldn’t hurt him. At last, he was killed joint-handedly by another Chief in this base and Deputy Chief Xiao.”

After saying that, he curiously looked at Lin Wenwen’s short hair. He had yet to get used to her new look, but he didn’t say a word about that.

Meanwhile, the others fixed their eyes on those vines while asking Xing Le in one voice, “He transformed?”

Viney quietly touched everything in the living room, then drew back her vines. Before long, those vines disappeared in front of Yuan Tianxing and the others.

After watching those vines turn transparent bit by bit and then disappear, those people finally sighed with relief.

“Did they go away?” said Du Yuanxing.

“I think… so…” One of the others responded.

Du Yuanxing thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, “I think that was the vine plant in Miss. Lu’s space…”

Hearing that, Lin Wenwen both recalled Viney. Yuan Tianxing hadn’t seen her, so he confusedly looked at Du Yuanxing. Xing Le looked around alertly. Only after confirming that those white vines had truly gone did he sigh and relax.

Then, he said to the others, “I heard that Yang Chao was running some kind of secret experiment related to the zombie virus, and he used living human beings from the base for it. During the past few months, hundreds of people in this base have disappeared, all kidnapped by Yang Chao. Now, they’ve all been found.”

Yuan Tianxing and the others looked at him in shock. “He ran experiments on living human beings? What experiments? It must be something evil, as he even needed to secretly kidnap people for that!” Lin Wenwen said angrily.

Xing Le nodded, “Yes. He extracted the zombie virus from zombie blood, then diluted and injected it into human bodies. The commoners would die immediately after the injection. Only the superpowered people were able to suppress the virus.”

Yuan Tianxing frowned while asking, “Why did he inject the diluted virus into human bodies?”

“I think he was trying to attain some kind of power,” said Xing Le, “He became a monster at last. He wasn’t even afraid of lightning strikes after that, and only physical attacks could hurt him.”

Lin Wenwen had a guess, and said, “So, people could only use weapons to attack him? A bomb would have ended him, right?”

Xing Le nodded in agreement, “You’re right. Bombs could indeed give him some harm. However, he was way too fast. I’m afraid that he would be able to dodge the bomb before it went off. So, in the end, Deputy Chief Xiao killed him by piercing a metal stick into his head.”

Yuan Tianxing remembered that Miss. Lu had mentioned a level-seven partner of Yuan Tianxing, so he asked, “Where’s his partner? Who is that man?”

Xing Le looked at him and answered his question, “Ah, I heard that he’s a level-seven metal-powered man. But, he ran away without Yang Chao when he saw the situation going bad.”

“He ran away?” The others exclaimed out loud with surprise.
