Skinwalker Belle – Chapter 80 – City Control Plan

Lin Fan’s gaze shifted from Iron Fist and fell upon Ah Hu’s dust-covered face.

“Ah Hu.”

Her voice was soft, yet it made Ah Hu’s body tense up subconsciously.

“Yes, Lei-jie!”

“There should be quite a few cars here.”

Lin Fan’s eyes swept over the vehicles toppled every which way at the shopping center’s entrance.

“When you’re arranging manpower, go into the mall and find me a few outfits.”

Ah Hu was taken aback for a moment.

Find clothes?

“Dresses, in more muted colors,” Lin Fan added.

“And shoes. I need both high heels and flats, size thirty-eight. When you get back, tell the cafeteria to give the brothers an extra dish.”

“Yes!”

Ah Hu didn’t ask why, nodding in immediate agreement.

He only needed to execute Lei-jie’s commands.

After giving these instructions, Lin Fan no longer looked at the mess on the ground.

She tapped the tip of her foot lightly on the ground.

Her entire person, like a weightless feather, slowly ascended.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the white figure rose higher and higher, finally turning into a streak of light and disappearing over the horizon.

…

The wind howled past her ears.

Lin Fan flew at high speed hundreds of meters in the air. The city ruins below her looked like a model on a sand table.

This feeling was one of utter freedom.

She glanced down.

Rеаⅾ οո ΚаtRеаⅾіոɡСafe

The hem of her white dress billowed upwards in the high-speed airflow, like a blooming flower.

She could feel the cool wind caress the top of her smooth thighs.

She didn’t dislike the sensation.

In fact… she even liked it a little.

After wearing a dress for just one day, she had immediately fallen in love with the feeling of its hem fluttering.

Compared to the constricting leather suits and yoga pants, the long dress brought a sense of unrestrained liberation.

She no longer needed tight-fitting clothes to accommodate her fighting style.

With her current combat methods, she didn’t need to consider practicality at all.

The image of Iron Fist’s face, twisted in fear, surfaced in her mind again.

Crystals…

Special crystals nurtured within the brains of mutated Zombies.

Swallowing one could allow an Evolved being to undergo a second evolution.

This piece of information was like a stone tossed into a lake, sending ripples through her heart.

If Crystals could allow Evolved beings to evolve a second time…

Then what would happen if an ordinary, unevolved person ate one?

Could it… directly grant them abilities?

Lin Fan’s heart skipped a beat.

If this guess was true…

Then she could build an entire army of Evolved beings!

By then, the entire strength of Fragrant Hills International would undergo a world-altering change.

Her gaze involuntarily drifted toward the city’s distant suburbs.

In that direction was the military camp.

It was also where that white-haired woman was located.

That place was infested with thousands of mutated Zombies.

If her guess was correct, then there must be a large number of Crystals in the military camp.

There might even be Crystals of a higher quality.

But…

Lin Fan’s brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.

That white-haired woman.

The Zombie Queen.

On the surface, she had only displayed the ability to control mutated Zombies.

But Lin Fan’s intuition told her that the Zombie Queen was definitely not that simple.

She concealed deeper secrets and a more terrifying power.

To provoke her rashly without absolute certainty was not a wise choice.

Lin Fan was not one to take risks.

She preferred to have everything under her control.

She retracted her gaze.

She could go to the military camp, but not now.

The most urgent task was to first verify the effects of the Crystals.

She quickly formulated a new plan.

Starting tomorrow, she would have Ah Hu’s exploration team specifically hunt down lone mutated Zombies.

They would directly use the heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles.

That way, even if they encountered a second-evolution Zombie like Iron Fist, who was immune to rifle bullets, they could easily deal with it.

She would collect enough Crystal samples to determine the specific effects and values of different types of Crystals.

And…

A smirk touched the corners of Lin Fan’s lips.

Of Hangzhou’s known Evolved beings, Fire Phoenix was dead, Iron Fist was captured, Lin Shao was a cripple, and she had turned Long Yue into a Skin.

The rest were just small, insignificant strongholds.

It was time for a consolidation.

She would gather all the survivors in Hangzhou.

To form an unprecedentedly massive stronghold.

And she would be this stronghold’s one and only queen.

Lin Fan flew a full circle around the dilapidated city.

She looked at the collapsed buildings, the abandoned vehicles, and the walking dead that roamed the streets.

She could feel this once-beautiful city letting out a silent cry of grief.

But soon.

This place would welcome its new master.

…

Night fell.

The last sliver of sunset vanished from the horizon.

Lin Fan’s figure landed silently on the eighteenth-floor rooftop of the Fragrant Hills International building.

On the rooftop, the few team members responsible for guard duty immediately stood up straight when they saw Lin Fan return.

“Lei-jie!”

“Mm,” Lin Fan responded faintly.

“You’ve worked hard.”

Her voice was very gentle.

“Go to the cafeteria for an extra meal. Ah Hu arranged for it today.”

The team members were overwhelmed by the favor, thanking her repeatedly before quickly leaving the rooftop.

Soon, Lin Fan was the only one left on the entire rooftop.

Rеаd οո КаtRеαⅾіոɡCαfе

The night wind was slightly cool.

She walked to the edge of the rooftop and looked down.

The entire city was plunged into darkness.

Only a few scattered spots still glowed with faint lights.

Those were the locations of other survivor strongholds.

But soon, all these lights would converge here, with her.

Lin Fan spread her arms, feeling the high-altitude night wind blow against her body and dress.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

The air was filled with the scent of decay and death, a scent that belonged to the apocalypse.

But from it, she smelled the fragrance of power.

A thought flashed through her mind.

The next second.

The transparent monster appeared out of thin air before her, hovering silently.

Lin Fan opened her eyes, a lazy and bewitching smile on her lips.

She lifted her leg, placing her foot, clad in a silver high-heeled sandal, on the edge of the rooftop.

Then, facing the city before her, she slowly lay back.

Looking at this city.

(Five hundred words omitted)

Lin Fan leaned against the railing, panting slightly.

She looked down at the city prostrate at her feet, her eyes gleaming with the light of satisfaction and conquest.

I am the queen of this city.

I can do whatever I want.
