Chapter 116: Communicating

Not long after, a girl about ten years old in school uniform walked out from the corner of the road. When Zhu Lin saw the thick black devil energy covering her body, she calmly said, "She is a zombie."

As soon as she said these words, Xiu Wu, Tan Wei, and Ji Yang were ready to fight. All four of them stared at the little zombie slowly walking towards them. If Zhu Lin couldn’t see the devil energy surrounding the little zombie, she wouldn’t know that the cute little girl was a zombie.

Judging from her appearance, the only difference between her and humans is her pair of white eyes. Unlike other zombies with red eyes and emitted smell of blood from their rotten bodies, this little zombie didn’t even have a trace of blood on its body.

Zhu Lin was quite interested in this little zombie. Looking at the little zombie, she thought of a high level puppet she had in the past. That puppet is the only high level puppet in the Six Realms, and the person who made it is the Devil God.

That puppet was actually a birthday gift given to her by the Devil God for her thousandth birthday. He even used a string of his own primordial soul as the puppet’s soul. Unfortunately, after the Devil God disappeared, the puppet turned into ashes after blocking the tribulation lightning for her.

Thinking of that cute little puppet, a smile appeared on her lips. Standing next to her, Xiu Wu saw the nostalgic expression on her face and the gentle smile on her lips. He didn’t know what she was thinking, but he knew that she wasn’t thinking about him right now.

While Zhu Lin and Xiu Wu were busy with their own thoughts, Tan Wei threw the fire strings at the little zombie. Before the fire strings touched the little zombie’s clothes, it was blocked by something.

Clang! Clang!

Hearing the colliding sounds between the invisible barrier and Tan Wei’s fire strings, Xiu Wu moved his gaze away from Zhu Lin and said, "Xiao Wei, don’t waste your energy."

Knowing that his fire strings can’t destroy the barrier, Tan Wei took back the fire strings. The next second, Xiu Wu threw several space blades at the little zombie.

Crash! Slash!

This time, the space blades successfully destroyed the barrier around the little zombie and cut off one of its arms.

Thud.

When the severed arm fell to the ground, the little zombie finally stopped walking. It lowered its head and looked at the severed arm on the ground silently. After a long time, the little zombie raised its head and growled several times.

"Growl, growl?" Why did you cut off my arm?

For Xiu Wu, Ji Yang and Tan Wei, all they heard was a few low growls, which sounded terrifying and disturbing. But for Zhu Lin and Tu Tu, they clearly heard the childish voice asking the question. Seeing the confused expression on the little zombie’s face, Zhu Lin suddenly had a bold idea.

She took a step forward, but Xiu Wu quickly held her wrist. She looked at him and said, "It’s all right. She won’t attack us."

Xiu Wu shook his head and said, "No. That is a high ranked zombie. It’s very dangerous."

"I just want to talk to her." Zhu Lin said helplessly.

Hearing what she said, not only Xiu Wu, but also Ji Yang and Tan Wei looked at her as if she was a child making trouble for no reason. Seeing that it was useless to persuade Xiu Wu to let go, Zhu Lin turned to look at the little zombie.

She didn’t know if the little zombie could understand her or not, but she still wanted to give it a try. After thinking for a few seconds, Zhu Lin opened her lips and let out several low growls similar to the growls made by the little zombie, which shocked Xiu Wu and the others.

"Growl...? Growl?" Who are you? Can you understand me?

The moment she finished making the growling sounds, the little zombie suddenly raised its head and stared at Zhu Lin with a pair of white eyes. After a moment of silence, the little zombie opened its mouth and made a sound excitedly.

"Growl?!" Can you understand what I’m saying?!

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Growl." Yes, I can.

The little zombie was ecstatic and subconsciously took a few steps forward. Before it could even speak again, Xiu Wu had already thrown several space blades at it, almost cutting off its head. The little zombie was startled by Xiu Wu’s sudden attack, staggered back and stared at Xiu Wu.

The moment the little zombie stared at Xiu Wu, the little zombie instantly regretted it. What it was looking at was not a human being, but a black shadow that made the little zombie feel like it would be crushed into nothingness in the next second. The little zombie couldn’t stand the heavy pressure, turned around and ran away.

After disappearing for a few seconds, the little zombie suddenly ran back. The little zombie picked up the severed arm on the ground, glanced at Zhu Lin and Xiu Wu with a complicated expression in its white eyes, and then ran away as fast as it could.

After the little zombie left, Tan Wei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "That little zombie is so powerful. When its eyes fell on me just now, I really couldn’t breathe because of the pressure."

"That little zombie is indeed very strong. But what I don’t understand is, why did it glance at Lao Xiu and then suddenly run away?" Ji Yang asked in confusion.

Hearing his question, Xiu Wu calmly said, "It’s not surprising that high rank zombies have intelligence. What strange is..."

He turned to look at Zhu Lin and said slowly: "... Xiao Lin can actually speak the language of zombies."

As soon as he said this, Ji Yang and Tan Wei also looked at her at the same time. Seeing that she was silent, Xiu Wu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Xiao Lin, do you have anything you want to tell us?"
