Chapter 1374: Piss Si Konchen Off

Lu Tianyi looked at the huge pile of files and said, “Did she empty the database of Huaxia’s lab? Who can understand these things? We’re not researchers. We should let the people who’re working on weapon science do the reading, right?”

Unlike Yuan Tianxing and Lu Tianyi, Xie Dong didn’t say anything but walked to the files and sat down on the ground with his legs crossed before reading.

Of course, the first step was to classify those files. They first sorted the files by years and then smaller categories. The sorting and reading kept the group of men busy enough to forget about anything else.

Not long after Si Kongchen returned to Huaxia Base, one of his subordinates ran to him and reported in a flurry, “Chief! Something happened in the place you just visited!”

Si Kongchen, who had just taken a seat, raised his head to look at the man and asked, “What happened?”

He had just been there. The place was fine when he was there and when he left. What could happen within such a short time?

The man stood a little nervously before his desk as he said, “We just received an urgent message, saying that the place was blown up entirely…”

Si Kongchen immediately stood up as he stared at the man expressionlessly and asked, “What did you say?”

“About ten minutes after you left, some intruders destroyed the second and third floors underground entirely, then detonated all the finished products and half-produced products in the weapon storage. The mountain has collapsed already.” The man puffed out his chest and reported to Si Kongchen loudly in detail.

“What about Professor Bai?” Si Kongchen asked through clenched teeth, his eye corners twitching.

The man stayed silent for two seconds and then responded, “We haven’t found him yet.”

Si Kongchen stayed quiet for a few seconds after hearing that and asked, “Do you know who did it?”

“We’re trying to find out,” said the man.

Clearly, the answer was no.

Si Kongchen walked out from behind his desk to the cloth rack and picked up his coat before heading outside his office while saying, “Prepare the car.”

“Yes, sir!”

The look on his face stayed peaceful, yet his vibe had leaked out of his body, spreading in all directions. He seemed to be agitated.

Lin Qiao didn’t know how Si Kongchen reacted, but she could guess it out. She was sure that he would be infuriated, because what she did severely harmed his interest. In the post-apocalyptic era, nothing could be more important than interests.

After hearing about what had happened from Lin Qiao, Duan Juan couldn’t help but burst in laughter. “You’re lucky!” she said, “I guess Si Kongchen is gonna be so angry. You destroyed his secret weapon factory right after he left that place.”

“Why didn’t you say that he’s unlucky to have me as his enemy?” Lin Qiao shrugged and asked.

Duan Juan glanced at her and laughed, “You’re right. Si Kongchen could have messed with anyone else, but he picked you. He’s definitely not gonna end well.”

Earth Dragon Base, Hidden Cloud City Base, and Sky Fire Base had all been torn down in miserable ways. No enemy of Lin Qiao could end well, and she was now even stronger than before. Maybe because she had turned into a zombie, or that she had died once, the current Lin Qiao was more brutal than the old leader of Hades Base by many times over.

Lin Qiao gave Duan Juan a glare and said, “How come that doesn’t sound right to me? Am I an evil big boss? Or a devil? Well, even if Si Kongchen didn’t mess with me, someone’d punish him for what he’s been doing sooner or later. His deeds will lead to consequences.”

Duan Juan glanced at her and said, “But I think it’s not gonna be easy for Chief Wu to deal with him without your help. Sea City Base was always much weaker than Huaxia Base. If there’s a war between those two bases, I think Sea City Base would fall into a disadvantage.”

After all, he wasn’t the only level-eight one. Si Kongchen could keep Wu Chengyue busy himself, and without the latter, the army of Sea City Base wouldn’t be able to guard the base against the army from Huaxia Base.

Si Kongchen might not be able to win against Wu Chengyue with his current power, but he might have some way to boost his power temporarily. Huaxia Base had been doing all kinds of research after all. Earlier, Xie Longyun had leaked that Huaxia possessed drugs for that kind of use.

Lin Qiao tilted her head and said with a peaceful voice, “I’m not talking about now. In the future, there will be someone who’s powerful enough to bring him down.” After saying that, she turned to look outside the window and murmured, “We got to make sure that Huaxia won’t be a problem for us in the future, as soon as possible.”

On hearing that, Duan Juan gave her a glance and said, “You sound impatient about that, are you?”

Lin Qiao turned and glanced at her, staying silent.

Last time, the level-nine underground monster somehow shocked her and almost awakened the zombie nature of Lu Tianyu the zombie. With some effort, Lin Qiao somehow regained control of her body. But ever since that, she had been having a bad feeling. She felt that the nature of Lu Tianyu the zombie had already woken up, and that it was looking for another opportunity to come out.

Therefore, she needed to deal with the problem started by Huaxia Base as soon as possible, and then find somewhere quiet to exterminate Lu Tianyu’s zombie nature. How could she allow another consciousness to exist in her body and always try to win control of the body?

No wonder Teng said that things would turn for the better as long as she could win. She indeed needed to make that other consciousness disappear for good. As for how to do that, she didn’t have a clue yet.

Maybe Teng would know.

She somehow felt that Teng knew everything. The kid had been extra knowledgeable since he was still living in the space. Where did he learn all that from?

Si Kongchen arrived at the secret experimental base to find it to be a huge hole in the ground and almost exploded in anger. Soon, he found that both Professor Bai and all the research materials were gone, nearly vomiting blood as a result. He didn’t even know who did all that.

Of course, the one who did that had already returned to her own base. By the time she let Yuan Tianxing and the others out of her space along with the pile of files, those men were already feeling dizzy.

Clearly, it was the reading that did that to them.

Before Lin Qiao arrived at the base, Yun Meng, Qiu Lili, Lin Kui, and some others sensed her coming.

“Eh? Is Qiaoqiao back?” Qiu Lili looked at Lin Kui and asked him.

Lin Kui nodded at her and said, “I think so. I felt that too.”

Lin Qiao had her vibe restrained, but the other zombies could still sense her through the special connection between zombies. Therefore, some high-leveled zombies in the base sensed her return before Lin Feng, Wu Chengyue, and the others.
