Chapter 124: Chapter 124

As Yang Cheng’s body was dragged ashore, Lin Qiao, Du Yuanxing, and Long Qingying were all confused by what they saw. But of course, Lin Qiao was still able to figure something out.

She had sensed something strange when dragging Yang Cheng’s body out of the water. A while ago, he was a living human being, but now, it had become a completely lifeless dead body.

However, his body wasn’t as heavy as normal corpses, but was very light.

Lin Qiao had sensed that when dragging him in the water. He was an adult man, about five feet and eight inches tall; he wasn’t fat, but wasn’t scrawny either. He should be at least sixty kilograms in weight. However, Lin Qiao didn’t feel that she was dragging a sixty kilogram object.

Instead, she felt that he had lost a half of his weight. His body was only about thirty kilograms in weight, and a normal corpse should be way heavier than that.

Sometimes, a human body might be heavier after death than it was alive.

Why was Yang Cheng’s body so light? Apart from his oddly light weight, his skin was dry, and muscles had shrunk. Not only was his blood drained, but all the moisture of his body was gone.

“What… What happened? Is he drained?” Du Yuanxing widened his eyes, staring at Yang Cheng with surprise.

About ten minutes ago, Yang Cheng was still talking to him. But by now, he had suddenly become like this. Du Yuanxing felt that it was so scary.

It wasn’t the first time for him to see a dead man. After all, what people saw in the post-apocalyptic era the most was nothing but dead people and zombies.

However, he was frightened indeed as he saw Yang Cheng become like this just a couple of minutes after his death.

Long Qingying looked at Lin Qiao, her eyes filled with confusion as well.

“What do you have in your lake? Does it eat people?” Du Yuanxing stared at Lin Qiao, his eyes showing fear. He recalled that earlier on, he was thrown into the lake too.

Lin Qiao glanced at the two of them, then stood up and put on the sunglasses. After that, she wrote a word on the paper—’Ghost.’

Du Yuanxing and Long Qingying didn’t know how to respond.

Was there really a ghost in the lake? Or, was Lin Qiao lying to them? Anyhow, they both believed that something horrible was hiding in the lake. In their heads, they both marked the lake as extra dangerous.

Du Yuanxing squatted, reaching out a finger to poke Yang Cheng’s face. He found that the latter’s facial muscles had become as hard as a dried tree trunk.

“Does he still have his energy nucleus? Or, is his energy drained as well?” Asked Du Yuanxing.

Long Qingying and Lin Qiao were looking Yang Cheng’s twisted face too. Abruptly, Lin Qiao squatted and popped the claws of her right hand.

“Eh!” Seeing that, Du Yuanxing automatically sprung up and took a step backward. Lin Qiao glanced at him, then turned back and cut Yang Cheng’s head with her claw.

She didn’t tell the two that she hadn’t sensed any energy from Yang Cheng’s body. Earlier on when she got him into the space, he was full of energy; but now, his energy seemed to have disappeared.

Puff!

Following a slight noise, Yang Cheng’s head was cut open like a watermelon. Then, the three of them saw something interesting.

Yang Cheng’s brain had shrunk and dried as well.

Lin Qiao couldn’t help but poke at the dried brain with her claw. She found that it was hard, like a piece of air-dried sponge. Then, she directly dug the brain out and tried to break it with her hands. A small piece of the brain fell off quite easily and turned into powders.

‘What the hell! Why did his brain become like this?’ Lin Qiao wondered. She continued breaking it, and soon, the brain was crumbled, exposing a white and lusterless energy nucleus.

The energy nucleus had a similar shape as a zombie nuclei. As Lin Qiao pinched it, it turned into powder without releasing any energy wave.

Long Qingying and Du Yuanixng were both shocked. It seemed that not only was Yang Cheng’s body drained, so was his energy.

Lin Qiao dusted off her hands and stood up, closing her eyes to observe the outside world. She found that Huo Wu and his people were still guarding out there. This time, those people weren’t searching around, as if they had learned that they wouldn’t be able to find anything.

Earlier on, after Lin Qiao dragged Yang Cheng into her space, Huo Wu confirmed that the space-powered person was in that area. So, he planned to wait until Lin Qiao showed up.

He believed that Lin Qiao would come out of her space eventually.

As far as he knew, many space-powered people were able to bring living human beings into their space. Some of them could have people stay in their space for a longer time, and some shorter. The timespan would vary based on their levels and other factors. But, no matter how, they couldn’t stay in their space forever. They would need to come out of their space eventually.

He had guessed right. Lin Qiao surely needed to come out, and that happened very soon.

She came out in the invisible state again, then quietly sneaked into a building nearby. Only after running onto the roof of the seven-story building did she show her face.

She was holding two objects on showing up. She threw the two objects down the building as fast as possible, then switched back to the invisible state.

Thud! Thud!

Two strange noises were heard, sounding like something falling onto the concrete floor; it was something much lighter than human bodies, more like wood.

Before Huo Wu realized what happened, he saw two human-shaped objects being thrown to the ground before his eyes. He failed even to grasp a trace of the one who had thrown these two things down. He didn’t even sense anything.

As two human-body-like objects were suddenly thrown down, the surrounding soldiers were stunned as well, not knowing how to react. They looked at Huo Wu’s dark face and stayed quiet, not daring to move.

Huo Wu was now wearing an extremely wrathful look. His eyes corners were slightly twitching, eyes filled with fury, as if a burst of fire was going to erupt from them at any instant. His facial muscles had been twitching as well, with his teeth clenched.

Everyone else had sensed the dark vibe radiating from his body.

The two dead bodies were thrown to the empty area which was about two meters away from Huo Wu. Whoever threw these bodies down was obviously challenging him and slapping his face.

Therefore, no one made any sound.

Huo Wu stared at the body which was wearing Yang Cheng’s clothes. He gritted his teeth, trying to calm his anger and killing intent. Afterward, he leaped off the stage and walked to the two bodies, observing them.

One of the two bodies was Yang Cheng, while the other one was a zombie. Both of their heads had been cut open, meaning that their nuclei were taken.

As Huo Wu was examining the two dead bodies, Lin Qiao had already leaped onto the roof of another building.
