<h4>Chapter 187: Large Electronics Factory</h4>


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>Law <strong>Editor: </strong>Hitesh_


    Two miles wasn’t a long distance in Lin Qiao’s eyes. This area was an industrial district, so many factories were to be found here, located close to each other. This allowed Lin Qiao and Xie Dong to move quickly forward by leaping across the roofs.


    In just a couple of minutes, Lin Qiao arrived at arge electronics factory that included five or six factory buildings, each having at least ten floors, and over twenty dorm buildings, each having seven stories.


    The factory sector was divided into a few parts, marked by letter A to D, and so was the dorm area.


    Lin Qiao stood at the edge of a factory roof and looked down, finding arge number of zombies wandering down on the ground.


    She looked at the zombie crowd downstairs confusedly. She was sure that a level-four zombie was in this ce; but normally, ordinary zombies wouldn’t appear in the territories of level-four zombies.


    So, what was happening here? Why did the level-four zombie let these ordinary zombies stay here? Why didn’t it drive them away?


    While Lin Qiao was observing the situation down on the ground, Xie Dong slowly climbed up from another side of the building.?Seeing her leaning her head forward to look down, he wondered what she was looking at. So, he walked over, put his hands on the guardrail, and looked down as well.


    He soon understood what Lin Qiao had been observing as he also saw a lot of zombies.


    He raised his head to nce at the surrounding buildings, observing that all the zombies were outside and the buildings seemed to be empty. No wonder so many zombies were crowding down there.


    At the moment, they couldn’t even see the ground from the roof. At least three-thousand zombies were gathered down there, filling up all the avable space. Lin Qiao guessed that those were just a fraction of the zombie group in this ce, as this factory should have had at least thirty-thousand workers before the apocalypse.


    Xie Dong knocked at the guardrail. Hearing the noise, Lin Qiao turned to look at him and saw that he had pointed at the space between a few other buildings, then at the zombies down on the ground. After that, he talked to her with signnguage.


    He was conveying that he didn’t see any zombie between the other buildings, so he guessed that all the zombies nearby were gathering around this building.


    Lin Qiao nodded in response; she had noticed that already.


    She was just curious about why the level-four zombie let so many ordinary zombies stay here. Level-four zombies shouldn’t be able to control ordinary zombies unless they possessed the spirit power, like the one she saw back in the South with Du Yuanxing and his team. For that matter, even a spirit-powered zombie couldn’t control so many ordinary zombies at one time.


    She turned to one direction, then pointed at a dorm building a few buildings away and talked to Xie Dong with signnguage.


    She conveyed to him that a target was located in there, a zombie leader.


    Xie Dong was puzzled at first as he turned to look in that direction. He focused his sensations, but failed to detect any target.?He then thought for a moment and figured that maybe the target had been hiding too well, so he wasn’t able to sense it.


    He turned to look at Lin Qiao and pointed in that direction while asking her with signnguage if she hade here for that target.


    Lin Qiao nodded at him, then looked down at the zombie crowd. After that, she raised her head and told Xie Dong with signnguage that she would go find the level-four zombie first, and that he could do whatever he wanted.


    Then, she climbed onto the guardrail and leaped toward another building that was also arge factory building. It was about eight meters away, but Lin Qiao easily hopped on top of it.


    Xie Dong looked at that building and measured the distance with his eyes. He could only manage to reach a window of that building instead of directly hopping on top of it.


    After jumping over, Lin Qiao made a roll on the roof and then disappeared.


    The invisible Lin Qiao kept moving forward as she leaped across roofs and soonnded on top of the dorm building which she had marked earlier.


    The dorm building had seven floors, and it was where the workers used to live.?Lin Qiao walked to the edge of the roof and leaned forward to look down at a corridor. She saw no zombies, but caught a strong scent of blood. She had sensed it earlier when she was with Xie Dong.


    It was so strong, so how could she not detect it?


    Nothing was down there, so she gripped the guardrail and flipped backward, nimbly swinging herself toward the corridor.?Shended on the floor of the corridor quietly, then pressed her hat which had nearly fallen off just now.


    After that, she looked around and found that the ce was as messy as most corners in the world. The wall was stained by dark blood, and the floor was covered in a thickyer of dust. She was invisible, yet she did leave footprints on the ground.


    She found the stairs and went to the lower floor.


    At the corner of the stairs, she sawrge blood residues on the floors. Apparently, some bleeding bodies had been dragged up from the fifth floor.


    She followed the blood residues down, but avoided stepping on them.


    The blood scent on this floor was extra strong. Aside from it, Lin Qiao had also grasped the scents of human beings which she had sensed before near the bookstores. It appeared that those people were caught and eaten here. No wonder Lin Qiao only sensed them arriving, but couldn’t tell how they had left.?Earlier on, she had found that the human scents wereing from the location of the level-four zombie.


    She saw arge puddle of fresh blood on the ground, looking vividly red.?She could see colors now, so the red blood had given her quite a strong feeling. When the world was still ck and white in her eyes, she would barely feel a thing at the sight of blood.?But now, seeing the familiar red of blood along with sensing its scent, she felt lessposed.


    Thankfully, she had gotten used to bloody scenes like this long ago. However, thinking of what she was about to see, she couldn’t help but have her face darkened.


    She followed the blood to the room at the end of the corridor. Except for the scent of fresh blood, she had also sensed an umted rotten smell.


    Her sharp sense of smell now made her a littlefortable, so she covered her nose with a hand.


    In fact, she found a few differentyers of blood residues on the ground, each having a different color. The bottom one was brown, partially covered in fresh red blood.


    She moved closer to the room. Near the door, there was no clean spot on the ground for her to nt her foot. She had no choice but to avoid the fresh blood and step on the dried blood.


    Crack…!


    She heard a series of chewing and swallowing sounds from the room; the door was open.?Hearing the voice, Lin Qiao could imagine the scene inside the room. She closed her eyes for a second, then walked in.
